Valiant for Truth
"The people that do know their God shall be strong, and do exploits."
~ Daniel 11:32
"The Lord is a man of war" (Exod. 15:3). Those who enlist under His banner shall have a Commander who will train them for conflict and give them both vigor and valor. The times of which Daniel wrote were of the very worst kind, and then it was promised that the people of God would come out in their best colors: they would be strong and stout to confront the powerful adversary.
Oh, that we may know our God - His power, His faithfulness, His immutable love - and so may be ready to risk everything on His behalf. He is One whose character excites our enthusiasm and makes us willing to live and to die for Him. If we dwell with Him we shall catch the heroic spirit, and to us a world of enemies will be but as the drop of a bucket. Be valiant for truth in this day of falsehood."
(By: Charles He. Spurgeon ~ One Minute Devotions)
Lord, we pray this morning for all the lost souls, for those who are without power, without food, without shelter, and for those who are sick and dying. We pray for all things to be renewed in you O Lord. This we pray in Christ Jesus' precious Name, Amen.
