The Army Of God

   I want to write for a little while about how the army of God wages war. As a united body of believers we wage war against the beast of society. The beast is all the bad that exists in the world. The beast was created to wage war against God. The beast is rebellion to God. Therefore, we as valiant warriors of God stand firm in our righteousness. We hold true to He who created us. For we are all the offspring of Christ if we seek out our first love, which ought to have been God through Christ.
    The way that war is waged is by running through the enemy in our daily lives by being built up in the light of the Holy Spirit, the true light which God provides. At this point in time this is how we win the war against those who follow after the ruler of the world, also known as wormwood. To overcome wormwood we establish our ways of thinking to be like those of God. We see through His eyes the world as it exists in the end of days, the present. This is how we know to wage war. We are fighting against spiritual wickedness in high places. These spirits may be invisible a majority of the time.  Remember that angels of God may be invisible also. The limited power that was given to the followers of the beast is that to persecute with outright scrutiny. This was foretold in the Bible.
   It is time to command all of the armies of God to rise up and overcome the spiritual wickedness that has deceived and killed so many. It is God's command that we uphold His ways in all that we do. We will wage war against all of those who persecute and attempt to destroy the truth of the Living Word of God.
   This is a time in which the beast will be put to an end. All of those who have followed after the beast will soon find themselves in no man's land. Then will come the day of judgment for those who are what God sees to be the walking dead.
   The priests and angels of God are to overcome with authority of the Holy Spirit, who is both a peacemaker and a warrior. Understanding the balance is key. The character of the army of God is to reconcile the situation in ways that are pleasing to God, but to never be overcome or intimidated by the opposition. 
   James 5:8 "Be patient and stand firm, because the Lord's coming is near. Don't grumble against each other, brothers, or you will be judged. The Judge is standing at the door!"
  Understand that the judge of all is Jesus Christ. He has been called by His Father to judge the living and the dead. He is the most merciful of all judges yet He demands respect for His Father and His Law.
   1 Corinthians 16:13 "Be on your guard; stand firm in the faith; be men of courage; be strong. Do everything in love."
    Love is God. God has two sides. Love is what He desires to use to shower the entire world, but as a Father disciplines His Son, so does God discipline those whom He loves. This is a hard lesson for many, but understanding the mind of God to not put up with evil is essential to understanding the heart of God.
