Ways to Sharpen Your Sword
- In our journey of #faith, it’s essential to sharpen our swords, & deepen our knowledge & understanding of Scripture. Just as a Warrior prepares for battle, we too must equipt ourselves with the Word of God, and put on the FULL Armor of God on. I have put together a list of some of the ways we can sharpen our swords & put on the Armor.
- Read the BIBLE
- Study with S.O.A.P Method
- Listen to Podcasts, Lives, Sermons
- Journal
- Blogs & Faith Articles
- Devotionals
- Prayer
- Groups
Read Your Word (Bible)
Dive into the Scriptures daily. Let the Word transform your heart and mind, wash over your spirit, cleanse and purify your heart. I use YouVersion Bible App Daily Bible Verse to keep me accountable.
▪︎ Study with S.O.A.P
Use the S.O.A.P method (Scripture, Observation, Application, Prayer) to deepen your study and apply the Word to your life with our SOAP Study Guide. I have put together a Blog for you to check out and follow along.
▪︎ Listen to Podcasts
Tune into faith-based podcasts that explore biblical teachings and provide insights, for everyday life, and journey. listen to biblically sound preaching and sermons from your car, or your office. Sword Study Room & Firestarter Ignite Podcasts are the start-up of my journey as a Teacher and Podcaster, and you can tune into them if you wish.
▪︎ Journal
Write down your thoughts, prayers, and revelations as you read and reflect upon scripture. Journaling helps clarify your understanding of God’s word, and reflect on your spiritual journey in the long run. It’s for YOU! I have even compiled some of my Journaling prompts into Blogs for you to delight on.
▪︎ Check Out our Faith Blog
Explore blogs that focus on biblical topics and subjects. They can offer fresh perspectives and insights. I write Blogs every so often, featuring other bloggers as well, check us out BLOG
▪︎ Read a Devotional
Reading a devotional can facilitate daily reflections and assist in connecting with God’s Word on a personal level. I utilize the YouVersion Bible App to maintain consistency, establish a biblical routine, and stay connected with other Warriors like myself. Currently, I am hosting a 365-Day Bible Plan, and we are on Day 6. Join us in this adventure.
▪︎ Pray
Seek God in prayer. Ask for wisdom and understanding as you study God’s Word. Before I get into the STUDY I pray for God to lead me, teach me and to gain an understanding drawing deep insights from within.
▪︎ Check In with Groups
Nothing like biblically sound Groups & Communities to keep you accountable and become part of godly community. I have a few I can recommend to help you grow spiritually. Its good to gather with believers on Sunday, but we also need groups and communities to keep us engaged and committed through the week. As the Bible instructs us to gather even more as the day approaches, so should we. Engage with fellow believers & study groups, discuss Scripture, pray and uplift within your community, outside and online. Sharing struggles, and discussing Scripture can enrich your understanding, deepen your knowledge, as well as seek out support from others in the community. You are not alone, there are others who are facing the same issues you are facing. Don’t forget to thank Admins of FB Groups, pastors, and group leaders for making this space for you.
My Story
Not Equipt
- I was not ready, I lacked knowledge and understanding of scripture, I was told to believe that the enemy has bigger fish to catch, and fry. So when I stepped on the Battlefield, I was constantly getting hurt and wounded. I asked the Holy Spirit to help me, and to teach me, and he did.
Prayer is important in the life of a believer. It’s a conversation with God about the things that matter to you, it is protection for your daily journey, and guidance to your NOW, and NEXT.
Biblical Truth
We are in a war everyday!
We must be ready at all times
Our weapons are not carnal!

My Sword Story
Growing up, I struggled with understanding how to pray, and I didn’t grasp the significance of prayer in my life. As a result, I found myself facing challenges from all directions, feeling overwhelmed and lost. This lack of a prayer life left me without the desire to connect with something greater than myself.
Moving further from God, and towards the world.
Every so often I prayed, and RECITED prayers that my mother, relatives, and pastor prayed, but it absolutely had no meaning to my life.
I had no substance in my prayer, no connection, just words with no meaning
Let me humor my Ukrainian or Slavic audience for a minute
” Бог Авраама, Иакова а Нине наш”
” Ты прибежишь наше, защита наша, Бог мой на которого я уповаю”
Sounds familiar?
We strived to pray like our pastors prayed, and when we didn’t find connection, we recited those words like a broken radio, without having any meaning, whatsoever.
We modeled prayer, but rarely did we mean it!
God wants to have a relationship with you and I, NOT just some meaningless connection or recited words, HE the creator of the Universe and desires to have connection with YOU and I.
- I was not ready, I lacked knowledge and understanding of scripture, I was told to believe that the enemy has bigger fish to catch, and fry. So when I stepped on the Battlefield I was constantly getting hurt, and wounded. I asked the Holy Spirit to help me, and to teach me, and he did.
Therefore put on the full armor of God, so that when the day of evil comes, you may be able to stand your ground, and after you have done everything, to stand. Stand firm then, with the belt of truth buckled around your waist, with the breastplate of righteousness in place, and with your feet fitted with the readiness that comes from the gospel of peace. In addition to all this, take up the shield of faith, with which you can extinguish all the flaming arrows of the evil one. Take the helmet of salvation and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God. And pray in the Spirit on all occasions with all kinds of prayers and requests. With this in mind, be alert and always keep on praying for all the Lord’s people.
Your Story is important to someone else. The details of your testimony are life to someone else. I couldn’t have spoken into strangers life, if I myself did not go through the battles. I can only speak because I know the pain, the hurt, and confusion. I pray God comforts us, and gives us the grace to tell our story, no matter how small the details are.
Let’s not hesitate to share our testimonies and help each other walk through the valleys, and reach our destinations together. With a sense of fulfillment, and helping others get there can be a rewarding and satisfying experience, because when we lift each other up, we don’t just reach our destinations, we thrive in them.
I’d love to share your Story on my SITE!
