My awesome broadsword was given to me in the middle of a spiritual battle. It’s a marvelous revelation I want to share with you.

In a dream, I cowered on the floor in a dark corner of an old house. At the front door, a pack of demon beasts clawed and snarled.  So, I ran around inside the house and secured the windows and doors, then I retreated to the room farthest away.

Chris Hemsworth showed up suddenly (I think he represented an angel) and began flinging the doors open.  His actions caused me to panic and I screamed, “What are you doing?” But he yelled back, “Use your sword!” and then he tossed me a broadsword.

I hesitated for a moment staring at it in my hand, when something in my spirit said, “What is your sword?

I was taught, as everyone was, that our sword is the Bible, the Word of God, but my spirit said,” Your Word is a word that was spoken specifically to you.  It’s not a scripture.”

So, I wracked my brain trying to remember when I had ever received a Word for my life. And immediately I remembered what Jesus had said to me many years ago in a vision. I’d forgotten about it.

He had put a pencil in my hand and said, “Now, you will write for Me.”

As soon as I remembered it, the broadsword came alive in my hand and fear completely disappeared.  Apparently, without knowing my personal Word, my spirit had no power.  Fear had control.

But in knowing I had a destiny and what it was, I was fearless and powerful.

With the sword functioning in my hand, I followed Chris to the front of the house where the beasts had clawed holes in the doors. They were reaching inside with their paws and heads to grab or bite me.

So, I sliced and stabbed with powerful intention alongside Chris, and within moments the beasts ran away yelping in retreat.  We won that battle.

Afterward, I saw in the spirit that the broadsword was mine to keep. It hung on my back in a sheath and a couple weeks later I used it again on an ugly bugger invading my bedroom.

It’s important to remember dreams and visions.  They hold keys to our growth and success.  And a Journal is perfect for keeping them.

I have one now!
