I am a soldier in the army of my God. The Lord Jesus Christ is my
commanding officer. The Holy Bible is my code of conduct. Faith, prayer,
and the Word are my weapons of warfare.
I have been taught by the Holy
Spirit, trained by experience, tried by adversity and tested by fire. I
am a volunteer in this army, and I am enlisted for eternity. I will
either retire when the Lord comes back, or die in this army; but I will
not get out, sell out, be talked out, or pushed out. I am faithful,
reliable, capable and dependable.
If my God needs me, I am there. If He
needs me in the Sunday school, to teach the children, work with
the youth, help adults or just sit and learn. He can use me because I am
there! I am a soldier. I am not a baby. I do not need to be pampered,
petted, primed up, pumped up, picked up or pepped up. I am a soldier. No
one has to call me, remind me, write me, visit me, entice me, or lure
me. I am a soldier.
I am not a wimp. I am in place, saluting my King,
obeying His orders, praising His name, and building His kingdom! No one
has to send me flowers, gifts, food, cards, candy or give me handouts. I
do not need to be cuddled, cradled, cared for, or catered to. I am
committed. I cannot have my feelings hurt bad enough to turn me around.
I cannot be discouraged enough to turn me aside. I cannot lose enough to
cause me to quit.
When Jesus called me into this army, I had nothing. If
I end up with nothing, I will still come out ahead. I will win. My
God has and will continue to supply all of my needs.
I am more than a conqueror. I will always triumph. I can do all things
through Christ.
Devils cannot defeat me. People cannot disillusion me.
Weather cannot weary me. Sickness cannot stop me. Battles cannot beat
me. Money cannot buy me. Governments cannot silence me and hell cannot
handle me.
I am a soldier.
Even death cannot destroy me. For
when my commander calls me from this battlefield, He will promote
me to Captain and then allow me to rule with Him. I am a soldier in the
army, and I'm marching claiming victory.
I will not give up.
I will not turn around.
I am a soldier, marching heaven bound. Here I stand!
Will you stand with me?
Guess what?
If you've accepted Jesus Christ as your
Savior, you're already
enlisted!
