Warrior
Dr. Shelia Isom spoke at our Church's Revival last night. She is hosting her crusade here again, last year when she hosted it here and when Ron Webb spoke is when I really got serious about my walk with God. She said something that really spoke to me last night, she said the word Warrior. I have read two books thus far that call us, all of us to be Warriors. The last book, which I have just finished reading was, Fathered by God by John Eldridge. It was an amazing book, which displayed the stages of a man's life and I recommend it for everyone. The stage he said I am coming into, my twenties, is the Warrior stage. He said, "Our God is a Warrior because there are things in life worth fighting for." He talks about how men have become passive, and the only cure is to become aggresive, go on the offensive rather than just resisting the devil, to take back the things which the enemy has stolen from us. The Bible is filled with Warriors, my favorite story being of David's Mighty Men (1 Chronicles 11-12), not only the great works they did, but how loyal they were to their king. They show how we should love God and fight for the souls of men, and our families. I pray that after you read this you will start praying harder, for the end days are here and time is almost out! Go pick up a book on spiritual warfare, read your Bible, some verses I have highlighted are Zepheniah 3:15,17, Psalm 45:3, Exodus 15:3NIV, Isaiah 42:13NIV, Jeremiah 20:11, Psalm 24:7-8, Judges 15:9-16, 1 Samuel 16:13NASB, Matthew 28:18. Read these and pass this on, and may God bless you!
