I Shall Not Be Moved

Think about it! The motto of a Christian warrior!
Read Joshua 4; I Chron 12:8 (11 mighty men fit for battle brought in 120,000 of
the enemy) 12:21 – ALL were might men – not just the officers.
Men of war are solders – they must
be trained to be obedient. II Tim 2:4 – man that wars; one who endures hardship
for Christ. Rev 20:9 – Army of the Lord. II Tim 2:21 – Ready for
battle at all times.
Warrior – a person who fights in battle.
Conqueror – one who overcomes in war by making the effort.
Overcomer – the winner (Rev 2:7); they overcome problems, hindrances,
troubles and so forth and make their enemy their captive (I John 2:13-14)
To be a warrior who is affective you
must be living God’s Word, have all idols removed, be obedient, fearless, and
courageous. Be of good courage! Allow preparation.
I Thes 5:23 Some aren’t
sanctified in all 3 areas – Spirit, Soul, Body
Rom 12:21 Be not overcome by evil,
but overcome evil with good.
A warrior must exercise faith –
stripped of self. Heb 5:14
Faith in action. James 2:17-22
A soldier goes to battle not only with his weapon and ammunition but has to put the ammo in then aim and pull the
trigger – it doesn’t just happen.
No water until the ditches are
dug. No oil until the vessels were full. No healing until the leper
dipped 7 times. No Messiah until the way was prepared. No harvest until
the ground was broken. No reconciliation without repentance.
Joel 2:13 Rend your heart; not your
garment!
No vision without obedience.
No resurrection until the stone is moved. No entrance into Heaven without
cleansing.
A warrior will not be moved by –
trouble, sickness, disease, what people say, what people do or have done,
afflictions, doubt, famine, failures, changes, disappointments,
discouragements, storms, tests, or fears.
Because – Col 1:23 I won’t
allow my hope or faith to be moved. Ps 125:2 The Lord is encamped
about me!
