Pray to Be Faithful Soldiers in God’s Army

April 7, 2014

 

 

Directive #13-April 7, 2014

 

 

 

SCRIPTURE: II Timothy 2:3 & 4

You therefore must endure hardship as a good soldier of Jesus Christ. No one engaged in warfare entangles himself with the affairs of this life, that he may please him who enlisted him as a soldier.

 

INTERPRETATION: New Testament scriptures make reference to historical soldiers or examples of soldiers to remind us of our development of faith and confession and lifestyle of vision and vigilance.

 

OTHER SCRIPTURES

 

Matthew 8:5 – 13 “But only say the word, and my servant will be cured.” (A soldier said this).

  • Know that Jesus is our authority
  • Use our faith for the good of someone else

Acts 10:1 – 3 “About three in the afternoon he distinctly saw in a vision…” (Cornelius, an Italian soldier had a vision for Peter to preach the Gospel to the Gentiles).

  • We need a vision that the Gospel will be paramount in our families, and spread across our society

Matthew 27:54 “When the centurion and those with him…saw…they were terrified and said, “Truly this was the Son of God.”

  • We need a confession; of our sins and to the deity of Jesus

Luke 3:14 “Some Soldiers questioned him (John the Baptist), “What should we do?”

  • “Don’t intimidate people for money.”
  • “Don’t accuse anyone falsely.”
  • “Live within your means.”

 

PRAYER POINTS:

 

Pray for opportunities to use our faith for the good of someone else.

Pray for a vision and goals to see the Gospel spread.

Pray for a confession with a strong conviction that Jesus is Who He said He is.

 

Pray for all things and expect results – Prefacing what we do and say with prayer puts the results in God’s hands.
