We shall be strong and not lazy!

Heb 6:12 That ye be not slothful, but followers of them who through faith and patience inherit the promises.

There is something to be said about hard work! ...I have often said, "I don't even want to be in the same State with a lazy man".

Hard work builds character, integrity and strength. These are even some qualities that we need living for God.

We need Character ( moral or ethical quality: a man or woman of fine, honorable character ) Integrity ( adherence to moral and ethical principles; soundness of moral character; honesty ). Strength ( the quality or state of being strong; firmness, courage, mentally, bodily power; vigor ).

All of these thing that I have listed above, have their place in the development of a person that can be used in a great way by God.

In this hour, we need people that are willing to stand in the face of adversity, not willing to back down, or to become soft due to situations or circumstances that are going on around them on the job, school or even in church and then becoming just like everyone else. Somebody has to take a stand!

I am persuaded this is a day and hour of having the proverbial ( backbone like a saw log) we are living in a wicked hour, and it will take people of determination to stand and maintain the standard of the Gospel and the life of holiness living, for as the Word of God teaches us;

Heb 12:14 Follow peace with all men, and holiness, without which no man shall see the Lord:

We have been given a heritage, it's up to the individuals that I have described above to stand in the gap and NOT be Slothful, LAZY or wanting to fall into the status quo, we have an obligation to those around us, so they can see that not everybody is going along with the flow, there are some that are willing to STAND and BUCK THE TREND!

I want to hear God say! WELL DONE! Thou good and faithful, ...notice he said, faithful not slothful! If one can put a thousand to flight and two ten thousand what can a band of us do in the kingdom of God?

Dan 11:32 And such as do wickedly against the covenant shall he corrupt by flatteries: but the people that do know their God shall be strong, and do exploits.

Friend! I am excited about living for God, I don't want to be some kind of a lazy Christian, I want to be mighty in God.

Blessings to those that have the willingness to stand strong, and to those that don't, we'll just continue to pray that you will catch the vision of what God is wanting to do in your life and the life of your family and that you will join the ranks of those that are willing to Stand Strong.

Praying with YOU in mind,
