From John Collins Ministries:
“Greater love has no one than this, than to lay down one’s life for his friends.” John 15:13 (NKJV).
Jesus spoke
these words to prepare His apostles for His
crucifixion. Jesus made
the ultimate sacrifice for
us. Many may not expect to encounter a situation where
this is a possibility here in America. Yet, there are
soldiers that encounter this situation and face the possibility of death side by side there
fellow soldiers every
day while fighting
battles for their country. There has been many wars that America has
fought in and many men who have died. There is not a choice for a soldier to go to fight
for their country; they just
do. Most of those men will tell you that they fight for
the men at their side. They face
death with courage and heroism for love and loyalty of
their fellow man.
I know that there is more faith taken
into battle than into most churches. I know
that there are more genuine prayers said
and more true love felt for family and friends by
those who face death than
those who take life for granted. I also know that this world began with war and
death when Cain slew Abel and I know that this world ends with war and death
with Armageddon. I also know that this world experiences periods of peace in
places of faith.
The stronger the faith of
the people and the more that righteousness abounds,
the more we please
God in heaven above and are given His intervention on
our behalf. So there is something that America can
do as a country to halt
the wars and death of
our loved ones, we can become firm in our faith and our reaching out in the
name of the Lord.
I know that we see many soldiers as heroes and so they are.
When you think of a soldier of courage and strength know that every soldier who
ever fought has the greatest example to have ever lived in our Lord and Savior
Jesus Christ. He is hero of heroes and king of kings. He is able to be our
strength and guide our efforts. Let us reach out to those without faith without
discouragement and without ceasing. Trust that God and Jesus love when we say,
“God bless you” to strangers in public. If you don’t yet speak up
automatically, start there. Say that to those you encounter and allow your love
of God to flow to others. Make an effort and be rewarded.
“I am the light of the world. He who follows Me shall not walk in darkness’ but have the light of life.” John 8:12 (NKJV).
