Who can belong to this army?
Here are a few criteria:
• Everyone, who loves GOD with their whole heart, who seek HIM in the quiet time so that they can continually get to know HIM better.
• Those whose initial response to HIS personal calling is one of total obedience.
• Everyone, who know HIS heart and HIS heart’s desires, including those for this current generation.
• Everyone who knows that they were born for such a time as this.
• Those who consciously live in the Covenant relationship which GOD offers to us through JESUS CHRIST:
• Those who know that everything is piecemeal, that he cannot succeed alone and therefore that he needs and seeks help by working together with others.
• Those who know that their life no longer belonge to them, but that it belongs to JESUS.
• Those who are totally dependant on the LORD, and are totally reliant on HIM.
• Those who allow their thinking to be renewed through the HOLY SPIRIT and GOD’S WORD.
• Those who completely trust GOD, who gives everything that he needs to carry out his assignment: grace, gifts, anointing, strategy, comrades-in-arms, power etc
• Those who recognize the times in which we are living.
• Those who don’t allow themselves to be sidetracked from their mission.
• Those who know that GOD is the Commander of this army, HE gives thr orders – and not an individual person (Joel 2: 11) – to defend HIS inheritance, to repel the enemy and to save humanity..
• Those who are not just very busy, but they that produce fruit, fruit that lasts and stands the test of time.
You did not choose ME, but I chose you to go and bear fruit – fruit that will last.
(Jn. 15: 16 NIV)
WELCOME IN GOD’S ARMY?!?!?!
