Worshipping, Warriors Win!
Ascribe to the Lord the glory due his name; worship the Lord in the splendor of holiness. Psalm 29:2
On this Veterans Day, let’s not forget to honor and salute Spiritual Soldiers. We must understand that we are all in a sense veterans, because we are in the Army of the Lord. As soldiers, it is our responsibility to establish a line of defense and to wage a war in the realm of the spirit. Many of our veterans have paved the way for us in the realm of the spirit. They have led by example; showing us various strategies and “war tactics” which have availed us with the ability to successfully outwit our enemy. For them, we are eternally grateful! However, unlike the United States Army, we will not be discharged for any reason. Our enlistment is valid as long as we are yet alive.
So, as a soldier – I am a warrior. As a warrior I must learn the impact that worship has in and on my life. Today, I must always remember that whatever I need to sustain me as I remain engaged in this war, is already on the inside of me. Sometimes we think that we need to get “more” before we can excel or move forward. However, for the most part, we simply need to learn how to worship. More battles in this life would victoriously be won…..if we only understood the relevance of worship. Worshipping Warriors Win!!
We praise God because of what He has done – as a sign of gratitude. However we worship Him because of WHO He is. As a warrior, worship is essential. It’s in the atmosphere of worship that we’re able to receive the strategies that will permit me to win EVERY battle. You are a warrior! Within you, you have an innate ability to oppose every wrong; in other words… to fight. However, we must aim those “energies” in the correct direction. Worshipping ushers us into the correct direction and position.
Become more engaged in worshipping the Lord. Worshipping develops intimacy. Therefore, when we worship the Lord – there is an open communication between us, which permits us to converse with Him - Spirit to spirit ….at any time. Worship transcends just a momentary set time of communion with the Lord. When we learn to worship the Lord; our flesh (attitudes, desires, opinions, etc.) will become more subjected to His guidance and will not have the free reign that it has.
The results from this type of worship will permit us to receive the stamina and the wisdom that is necessary to outwit the enemy…..every time!
A worshipping warrior knows no defeat. A worshipping warrior can realize that there are really no failures in life – only opportunities to learn. Question?????? – “If I’ve attempted to accomplish a task and didn’t receive the expected results – but have LEARNED from the experience…did I fail? Absolutely not!
A worshipping warrior has a mindset that doesn’t CONFORM to ideologies, situations, mindset etc, than are in an opposition to our mandate from the Lord, but will TRANSFORM whatever they encounter.
A worshipping warrior will achieve an insight into the realm of the spirit that will permit them to operate in this physical realm on a superior level.
So, you need to realize that …you ARE a winner. …you ARE a warrior….. but above all.. you are called to be a worshipper!
....And remember the Worshipping, Warriors….always Win!
“But the hour is coming, and is now here, when the true worshipers will worship the Father in spirit and truth, for the Father is seeking such people to worship him.” John 4:34 ESV
