God asks us to offer our lives as weapons of righteousness,
A constant call for us to see our destiny
Holy and Loving warrior of Jesus upon the face of the earth
We are His warriors to lead and rescue others
Use our tongue to speak word of kindness
Our arms and hands to embrace those who needs consoling
Feet and legs to offer quick assistance to those in need
Ears to someone who needs to vent his sorrows
A mind that understand the best way to help others
Believe that God’s love and compassion in our right and left hands
Helping us to rescue those who have wandered off the path to life
and gotten themselves trapped in spiritual darkness
Pope Francis encouraged us to aim high and be holy
““Do not be afraid of holiness, do not be afraid to aim high, to be loved and purified by God,
do not be afraid to let yourself be guided by the Holy Spirit,”
. We all carry our sins with us,”
God wants to offer forgiveness and transform our hearts.
Holiness does not consist in doing extraordinary things
the meeting of our weakness with the strength of his grace,
Have confidence in his active service to others.”
Do not lose hope in holiness.”
The Lord awaits us all with open arms to join in this path of holiness.”
You are exactly where God needs you to be today.
You are strategically placed on the battlefield,
God will bring you to the people he needs your help in rescuing.
Have your spiritual eyes, ears, hands, and heart wide open.
Let the Lord use you as a weapon of righteousness to win
Let the Grace, Favour and Mercy of God be upon all of us
Therefore, I decree upon our life that whatsoever that has or might have damaged our life, in our body, in our skills, our career, our academics, our business,
MAY THE FAVOUR, MERCY, GRACE AND MIRACLE OF GOD LOCATE US
Heal us so we can share God’s miracles to rescue others who needs rescuing. Amen.
We put no stumbling block in anyone’s path, so that our ministry will not be discredited. 4 Rather, as servants of God we commend ourselves in every way: in great endurance; in troubles, hardships and distresses; 5 in beatings, imprisonments and riots; in hard work, sleepless nights and hunger; 6 in purity, understanding, patience and kindness; in the Holy Spirit and in sincere love; 7 in truthful speech and in the power of God; with weapons of righteousness in the right hand and in the left; 8 through glory and dishonor, bad report and good report; genuine, yet regarded as impostors; 9 known, yet regarded as unknown; dying, and yet we live on; beaten, and yet not killed; 10 sorrowful, yet always rejoicing; poor, yet making many rich; having nothing, and yet possessing everything. 2 Corinthians 6:1-10
Present yourselves to God … as weapons for righteousness. (Romans 6:13)
With all the violence in the world today, you may not like the image of being a “weapon” for the Lord. But in this case, St. Paul is encouraging you to be a holy and loving weapon used by the Lord to free people from darkness. And that’s a good thing!
So today, put your whole body to work for the Lord. Use your eyes to be on the lookout for anyone who needs encouragement.
Use your tongue to speak words of kindness. Use your hands and arms to embrace someone who is feeling alone or overwhelmed.
Use your feet to offer quick assistance with any problems you run across. Offer your ears if someone needs to “vent” about a problem.
Most important, offer your mind to understand the best way you can help the people around you. Whether you realize it or not, a spiritual battle is going on around you—a battle for the souls of God’s children. And while God is certainly big enough to fight his own battles, he offers you the privilege, the honor, and the calling to join him. He asks us to offer our lives as weapons of righteousness, fighting for people with God’s love and compassion in our right and left hands (2 Corinthians 6:7). Will you join today in helping to rescue those who have wandered off the path to life and gotten themselves trapped in spiritual darkness?
Do not say, “I am only a mom.” Do not say, “I am only an office worker or a student or a retiree.” You are exactly where God needs you to be today. You are strategically placed on the battlefield, and God will bring you to the people he needs your help in rescuing. So be alert! Have your spiritual eyes, ears, hands, and heart wide open. Let the Lord use you as a weapon of righteousness to win the battle over darkness and evil in this world.
“Lord, I present myself to you as a weapon of righteousness for your kingdom. Use me however you will today to rescue those the enemy has trapped in loneliness, fear, and despair. Let my eyes be your eyes, my hands your hands, and my heart your heart of love for all your children. Father I offer you everyone I am praying for, those who pray with me and every warrior of Jesus Christ. We surrender all the hindrance to holiness. May we rise with greater hope, love and charity in us. May we come to you in purity of purpose to be always of service to you. Father, we offer you all the needs of our heart and soul. Let your peace reign in our hearts. Melt away everything that weakens the soul. Father let you be our strength, our courage and our fortress. In you we don’t fear for we are with you. Through the intercession of the Blessed Virgin Mary, all the angels and saints. In the mighty name of our Lord Jesus Christ we pray. Amen. “
