A B C D E F G H I J K L M N O P Q R S T U V W X Y Z Gary
The name Gary means ‘a spear’. A
spear has been used for centuries as a symbol of war. It is a long pointed
rod used as an offensive weapon. Gary would not be a spearman but a spear
itself. A spear, besides the sword, is one of the major tools that God gives
unto men to wage war against the enemy of His people. When a person is
fighting in a war ordained by God, it is the same as if God Himself was
holding the instrument used to wage the battle, be it sword, spear or
whatever weapon. Gary after giving his heart and soul to the Lord becomes a
weapon in God’s arsenal.
Gary doesn’t have to be a forceful and
dynamic kind of person in order to be so in the spiritual world. What God
sees and what we see is not always the same thing. A man once wrote that the
pen is mightier than the sword. Meaning of course that what is written can
do as much or more damage as what can be done with a physical weapon.
God’s Word is a symbol of the Sword of the Spirit and it is used to do
damage to the enemy and his works. God uses Gary to do just that. After Gary
has been on his knees seeking God’s direction the enemy trembles. He knows
that the scripture says in “Pro 27:17 Iron sharpeneth iron” and also that Gary
loves to get together with others to pray, seek God’s face and study the
Word. Doing so helps him and the others to be even more knowledgeable in the
ways of God and His Word. This makes them better able to wage war.
To be of really good use, besides being
sharpened, a spear needs to be oiled. This not only makes it shiny and
presentable, it also takes off any rust or dirt that may have become
encrusted on it, possible through disuse. The anointing of God’s Holy
Spirit and His blessing is what makes Gary’s warfare so effective.
Deut.
32:41 If I (God) whet my glittering sword, and mine hand take hold on
judgment; I will render vengeance to mine enemies . . . ©
