We have all heard the saying, "Lead, follow or get out of the way!" and I believe God is speaking this to all of us at this moment in time. "You're either part of the problem or part of the solution" I believe God would also say to us. "If you are not actively engaged in war with the enemy or part of the support team for those who are,,,, then you're already a victim or casualty." yes there is a war going on 24/7's and has been seen the dawn of time, but in today's world it is coming at us fast and furious and we need to ENGAGE or we will be judged. The apostle Paul says it this way... 2 Timothy 4:7-8 King James Version (KJV)
7 I have fought a good fight, I have finished my course, I have kept the faith:
8 Henceforth there is laid up for me a crown of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous judge, shall give me at that day: and not to me only, but unto all them also that love his appearing.
Paul talks of a fight for the souls of mankind and he speaks of his engagement and efforts, and the rewards that he will receive for his duty. Jesus said, "you're either for me or against me, you cannot have it both ways."
Today, we are being assaulted on every side with evil liberal concepts that go against the very Word of God and we will either ENGAGE or be defeated and run over like a weakling by a school yard bully. It's up to all of us who call ourselves Christians to stand up for Christ no matter the costs and we too like Paul who was left for dead 3 times, will inherit the crowns God has promised.
Edmund Burke was quoted as saying, "The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing." Yes there is a war raging hot today and each of us will either stand up and be counted or face the Lord on the day of judgment as to what we did with what He has given us. The young can not say I have no experience for God has given you all you need through the Holy Spirit to fight back. Nor can the old say I am too old now, for there is no retirement in kingdom of God, in fact it is we older ones that need to teach the younger ones how to battle and show them the scars we have from all of our life's engagements, and let them know how faithful ad awesome our God is.
Lastly, if we can not be sent into battle again by God for whatever reason, we can still send our prayers and financial support to those whom He does send and testify at the very least. There is always something we can do, so start today to do something until the Lord's return.
Matt: 24 vs 26 Blessed is that servant whom the master finds at work when He comes.
