This Is Spiritual Bootcamp

There are many warriors in the Lord's Army, but there are also many warriors in Satan's army. In the many years since I have known my Jesus, I have seen many AWOL. (absent with out leave) and go back to Satan's camp.  Now, in the army, when we join, we have to go through basic training.  If we do not pass the physical tests in basic training, we will not be accepted in the army.  Now, everyone can understand that, because it is just (common sense).  No one wants a weakling on their side in a fight. Even a little child has the instinct to know who is weak, because they will tease the weaker one and then, watch the one who is teased, they generally run from the teaser crying for their Mummy.

I believe that planet earth is the testing ground for the Lord's army.  There are certain diciplines which one MUST go through in order to enter into the kingdom.  The manual which we must learn from is the bible.  The tests are everyday circumstances.  There are times, when we must rest up before another battle.  That is when we MUST get down into our bunkers (shut up) and study to show ourselves approved unto G-d.  We must fast our minds of ALL worldly thoughts and focus on what the Word of G-d says to us, because it is the Word that becomes our Sword which is what we MUST use to defeat the enemy.  We must learn the strategy of the enemy, and the way we do so, is to learn to face the enemy and look into their eyes and listen to their words.  Now most of enemies are right there in our households because those are the ones who will oppose righteous living.  Satan comes the same way most times, to steal, kill and eventually destroy you.  We must use the Word of G-d to shut the enemies mouth!

In the army if you do not know the strategys of your enemy you will be defeated.  When you AWOL you are already defeated.  These are my thoughts.  Be blessed win the battles and become a General.
