Disarming your opponent is a legal action in fencing. In the modern rule once your opponent is disarmed the match will be halted. If a touched is scored in the same disarming action the point can be awarded. In a classical rule set once your opponent blade hits the grown the match is halted and a point can be awarded.

The action of disarming your opponent is not a feat of strength. Using strength alone will cause you to overreact and be out a good offensive posture, leaving yourself open to attack. To disarm your opponent you will need to apply the proper amount of force with your blade, on the “lever” which is your opponent blade, using your opponent hand as the fulcrum point, causing the grip to be dislodged for their hand.

A lever amplifies an input force to provide a greater output force, which is said to provide leverage.

In our daily walk with God, our adversary will oppose us and try to get us to battle him. we need to remember what Jesus did for us at the cross. We don’t have to worry about disarming our adversary, for God through Jesus has already disarmed him.

“Having disarmed principalities and powers, He made a public spectacle of them, triumphing over them in it ( the cross ).”‭‭

Colossians‬ ‭2:15‬ ‭NKJV‬‬ bracket added

So we should not have to enter into spiritual warfare with the adversary. The problem is that we do not really have the faith to believe this, so by the lack of faith we empower the devil to seemingly obtain weapons, but he is already disarmed and has nothing to attack us with.

Application

• Pray that God gives you the ability to see that adversary as already disarmed (no weapons)
• Know that Jesus already disarmed our enemy, and if our adversary does get a weapon we can also disarm him
