The Next Step

The Next Step

My child I have called you to be a warrior in my kingdom, but sometimes you may only see yourself as a little child - someone who has neither the strength nor skill to fight on the battlefield. My child, do not be discouraged, for I already know the road you will walk. I know what will make your muscles stronger, and what wisdom you need to become the conqueror that I have called you to be.
Trust in the pressures and obstacles in your way, because the lessons that you learn as you overcome, will train your fingers for war, teach you the weaknesses of the enemy, and give you the boldness to run onto the battlefield with your sword held high.
So do not see yourself as you are right now. Trust in the path that I have for you, and know that I see you as the finished product, the mighty warrior that will defeat all the schemes of the enemy, and take back the land he has stolen! See every mountain and every valley as a chance to rise up, and gain strength, skill and confidence. See yourself as I see you, and rejoice on the road that you walk with Me, says the Lord.
