GOD’S BATTLE AXE AND WEAPONS OF WAR
Thou art my battle axe and weapons of war. For with thee will I break in pieces the nations, and with thee will I destroy kingdoms, and with thee will I break in pieces the horse and his rider, and with thee will I break in pieces the chariot and his rider.— Jeremiah 51:20-22
Do you know you are God's battle axe? The preposition "with" used in the theme scripture connotes association, togetherness or partnership. This shows that God doesn't work alone in His agenda on earth. You are His instrument for executing His will in the earth. Begin to see yourself the way God sees you. He says, "You are my battle axe and weapons of war". That means, He fights with you or through you. 1 Corinthians 1:9 says, "God is faithful, by whom ye were called unto the fellowship of His Son Jesus Christ our Lord". That word fellowship also means partnership. We have been brought into partnership with God. Paul declares in 2 Corinthians 6:1 "We then, as workers together with Him also plead with you not to receive the grace of God in vain". We are God's co-workers. This is a vital partnership through the power of the Holy Spirit. With you the Lord desires to accomplish so much in your world. He fights with you. The Lord reassured Jeremiah, "Be not afraid of their faces: for I am with thee to deliver thee, saith the LORD" (Jeremiah 1:7). When the Lord told him, "I am with you" that is a partnership, meaning he will not do it alone. The Lord says to you "Today, I have put you in charge of nations and kingdoms. You will pull up and tear down and destroy and overthrow, build up and plant". It is time for action through your prayers, declarations of faith and other acts of service. God is going to bring order in places through you. The Lord counts on you as His battle axe and weapons of war.
