Stand Your Ground

There is a battle raging over the souls of men. It is a spiritual battle being played out in the physical realm.

 

John 10:10 - "The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy; I have come that they may have life, and have it to the full."

 

Many of us are discouraged. Some of us are giving up the fight, and others are fleeing out of fear. Yet, God is calling us to stand firm. As we do this, the Lord will bring the victory.

 

2 Samuel 23:10-12 - "but Eleazar stood his ground and struck down the Philistines till his hand grew tired and froze to the sword. The Lord brought about a great victory that day. The troops returned to Eleazar, but only to strip the dead. Next to him was Shammah son of Agee the Hararite. When the Philistines banded together at a place where there was a field full of lentils, Israel’s troops fled from them. But Shammah took his stand in the middle of the field. He defended it and struck the Philistines down, and the Lord brought about a great victory."

 

Remember, you are not standing alone in this fight. God and others are standing with you.

Ask God how should you stand. How should you fight. We each have a position (role), in the battle. **
