Welcome to the Daily Blade. The Word of God is described as the sword of the spirit, the primary

0:07.2

spiritual weapon in the Christian's armor against the forces of evil. Your hosts are Joby Martin

0:12.8

and Kyle Thompson, and they stand ready to equip men for the fight. Let's sharpen up.

All right, welcome back to Day 3 on how to glorify God at work.

0:24.3

Now, this is the one that you probably expected me to start with, but I wanted to establish first and

0:29.6

foremost that you're not just at work to be a missionary, but the work that you do in and of itself

1:39.4

you will receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you and you will be my witnesses. Notice it doesn't say

1:45.8

that I'm going to witness for you. Notice that it doesn't say that Kyle is going to witness for you.

1:50.4

Notice that it doesn't say that your preacher or pastor or favorite podcaster is going to do this for you,

1:55.9

that you will be a witness for Christ. When you get called as a witness in a courtroom, this means that you have a
