A Soldier In The Army Of God





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 in this army at the rapture 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 Sunday School, to teach 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 even!
I will win! My God will supply all 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 a
captain and then bring me back to rule this world 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!

Question is, are you on:

Active Duty: Serving the Lord faithfully, daily, and on duty 24x7.

Reserve Status: Serving only when called upon, or twice a year: Christmas and Easter

Guard Status: Backing up the Active Duty group

or..... AWOL: Absent With Out the Lord THINK ABOUT IT!!!
