Faith's Checkbook (By: C.H. Spurgeon)


May 24, 2011

                                                                             One a Majority!

One man of you shall chase a thousand, for the Lord your God is He who fights for you, as He promised you.
                                                                              ~ Joshua 23:10

  "Why count heads? One man with God is a majority though there be a thousand on the other side. The Lord's hosts are never too few.
  When God would found a nation, He called Abram alone and blessed him. When He would vanquish proud Pharaoh, He used only Moses and Aaron. The "one man ministry" has been far more used of the Lord than trained bands with their officers. Did all the Israelites together slay so many as Samson alone? Saul and his hosts slew their thousands, but David his ten thousands.
  If we have God with us; what are multitudes of men? One shepherd's dog can drive before him a great flock of sheep. If the Lord sent you, His strength will accomplish His divine purpose. Therefore, rely on the promise, and be courageous."

    LORD, WE THANK YOU FOR THE COURAGE THAT YOU HAVE BLESSED US WITH. THANK YOU FOR GIVING US YOUR STRENGTH TO BE ABLE TO BE A ONE MAN OR WOMAN ARMY FIGHTING WITH PRAYER AND FAITH AGAINST THE ENEMY. LORD, GIVE US THE ABILITY TO DO ALL THINGS THAT ARE IN YOUR WILL FOR OUR LIVES. WE KNOW LORD, THAT YOU WOULD NEVER GIVE US MORE THAN WE CAN HANDLE, BECAUSE YOU ARE A LOVING FATHER WHO DOES'NT WANT HIS CHILDREN GIVING UP BECAUSE THEY FEEL OVERWHELMED WITH SUCH BURDENS THAT THEY JUST GIVE UP ON LIFE IN GENERAL AND START TO LOOSE THEIR FAITH. SO WE THANK YOU FATHER, FOR NOT GIVING US MORE THAN WE CAN HANDLE AT ONE TIME. HELP US TO BE A GOOD SHEPHERD WHO LEADS THEIR FLOCK DOWN THE RIGHT PATH TO YOU OH LORD. HELP US TO BE A GOOD SOLDIER, TO STAND UP AND FIGHT FOR WHAT WE BELIEVE IN, AND TAKE A STAND FOR OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST WHEN THE TIME COMES. THIS WE PRAY AND ASK IN JESUS CHRIST' PRECIOUS NAME, AMEN.
