995A: God’s Plan for Survival
What is God’s plan for survival in a conflict that will not end until the enemy has been trodden underfoot? In Matthew 10, Jesus gives us some guidelines for surviving the attack of the enemy. We are to identify ourselves with the Lord and recognize the devices of the enemy. We are to stop holding back anything that keeps us from being a good soldier. We will take a good look at things that can hold us back and cause us to compromise our course. We are also to remember that the outcome is not up to us. We are the soldiers, and God is the Commander-in-Chief. It won’t be easy, but the eternal reward is great.
