Its raining and cloudy. Your heart feels stone cold. You are not walking in the full blessings of God, but merely tripping in exhaustion, from fighting a battle you feel you should have already won. You drag your sword, to weary hearted to swing. You see the massive enemy before you. Your inner man says “retreat” but you realize there is no place to move but forward. For to retreat would be the same as dying in the battle. The time has come. You must choose now. Which way will you go? Will you find your lost heart and fight? Or will you drop your sword and run back with the little strength you have left? Where do you go from here?
In the battles we all face through life, the question of win or lose, fight or hide, is one that comes back repeatedly. Are you in the middle of a fierce battle that right now is forcing you to make a decision? In my two and a half years of fighting hell, I have been faced with many times of exhaustion. And I have been forced to make my decision to run or fight. Let me remind you and myself again today… we really only have one choice. We must press on to Glory. I know it isn’t easy!! I know sometimes you beg God to make the battles stop. But fight on weary Christian! These battles will lead you Home. For to not fight simply means to backslide! So you must stand up tall and make your choice today. “I will fight until death. If my God never allows me to see a victory on earth, I will still fight and hold ground!! I will swing this sword with all my strength!! When I am bleeding… I will fight!! When I am tired… I will fight!! When my heart doesn’t fill help from above… I will fight!! This is my decision!!!! Live or die, I AM THE LORDS!!” I tell you now… I will not give up soldier! For I am fighting for a cause bigger than this life. I am fighting not carnal warfare!! This is about my King. My God. My Father. My Savior! Will you fight along with me? My decision is to fight!! What is yours?
