Sword of the Spirit // Third Eye (Brow) Chakra
https://yogafaith.org
The Sword of the Spirit represents the Word of God, while the brow or third eye chakra is associated with intuition and insight. These can be compared in that spiritual insight and discernment are needed to "rightly divide the word of truth" (2 Timothy 2:15).
The Word of God is the believer’s blueprint for everyday life. It is essential in our Christian walk and what the Lord has given us so that we would know Him. The sword of the Spirit is vital to live a victorious Christian life.
I pray that the eyes of your heart may be enlightened in order that you may know the hope to which he has called you, the riches of his glorious inheritance in his holy people. Ephesians 1:18
This Chakra is associated with the brain, eyes, ears, nose, and pineal gland and is thought to be the center of our intuition. It is related to the act of seeing, both physically and intuitively. It awakens our understanding and allows us to see clearly and have a healthy perspective on life.
I have seen the burden God has laid on the human race. He has made everything beautiful in its time. He has also set eternity in the human heart; yet no one can fathom what God has done from beginning to end. I know that there is nothing better for people than to be happy and to do good while they live. Ecclesiastes 3:10–12
We may not always know the answer or be able to see the full scope of what lies ahead, but the Word of God contains every answer for our life, therefore, we only need to know the One that knows the answers. I refer to the Brow Chakra as my “Holy Spirit intuition.”
