Volume 4 Chapter 11 Page 16

Monday November 26, 2007       16 Kislev 5768 (Hebrew 3rd Month)

"Prepping HIS Army!"

Ephesians 6:15-16 (NIV)
 
...and with your feet fitted with the readiness that comes from the gospel of peace. In addition to all this, take up the shield of faith, with which you can extinguish all the flaming arrows of the evil one.

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>|||<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<

As I continue to look at what the Apostle Paul outlines as my 'Spiritual Armor', what I must 'Put on' in readiness for each day's journey, I see that my 'Provisions' have been supplied by God.

At the hands of those who hated him and even tried unsuccessfully many times to kill him, Paul depended solely upon God and HIS unchanging WORD in times of both 'Peace and Conflict'.

Christ Jesus purposely warned me as one of HIS disciples, of the coming struggles that I will face for HIS Namesake, yet HE gave me a greater example of how I must be prepared for those times which will come as HE prophesied.

John 16:33 (NIV)
(Jesus speaking)"I have told you these things, so that in me you may have peace. In this world you will have trouble. But take heart! I have overcome the world."

As a 'Warrior of the Gospel of Christ' I have been outfitted in preparation for the 'March of Victory' which Jesus mentioned, where my feet are protected from the rugged and sometimes stony road that carries me onward.

Bearing the 'Shield of Faith' which Paul says will protect me from my enemies and their long range ambushes, as it is the intent to 'Kill and Destroy' me before I ever get to the front lines of battle.

My 'Shield' becomes larger when I am Faithful to prepare my heart with HIS WORD in defense of such attacks whenever they may come, night or day.

Prayer releases God's 'Blessing and Favor' from the heavenlies, as 'Signs, Wonders and Miracles' which prove 'Victory' is mine, where for centuries HIS WORD still remains as 'The Eternal and Everlasting Truth' as written and recorded by Paul,

Romans 8:31 (NIV)
What, then, shall we say in response to this? If God is for us, who can be against us?

I must not become restless as the 'Last Daze' approach, for I know that God has given me as a Believer, HIS 'Spirit of Power', and with HIM I must march forcefully forward advancing the 'Kingdom of Truth' into this age of darkness.

O'Lord, my feet tread upon soil filled with sin and death,
YOU outfit me with sandals to walk in Love and with Peace!
My Hope rests in YOUR unchanging Promise of Life,
to all who will find and follow YOUR Son in Obedience!!
The road that I must travel is narrow and winding,
and YOU lead me in every footstep that I make!!!
As I walk by Faith through each day and night,
I desire to never stumble nor fail in my walk with YOU,
where I must be a shining example of YOUR Marvelous Light!

Father, YOUR WORDs give me Power and Life,
for YOU are my King and my Lord,
reigning over every burden and strife!
Amen!
