The Lord hates whimps

   
The Lord is a fighter and hates to have whimps by his side. If you don't like the fray and don't like to fight for the cause of the weak and the poor and stand at His Side, you probably aren't one of His.It matters not what your physical strength is, but with all the strength you do have whether physical or spiritual, you are suppose to give it all and Not hold back. If the Lord is God, then serve Him, but if you are a half heart then turn back and be a quitter. For there are no whimps in the Lord's Spiritual Army.

     If you have doubts and fears and aren't sold out like the vast majority of Gideon's army was, then go home and stay home until the fighting is over. Gideon won with a few and not with many . Because the victory was with the Lord's Strength and in His Faith. (Judges 7) Joshua didn't enter into the promised land with a bunch of whining and complaining old bottle, old generation. He couldn't stomach, their gutless faith in fearing the 'giants in the land'. So the Lord let the older faithless generation wander in the desert until they died off. And only allowed Joshua and Caleb go forward after He had removed the heartless. (Numbers 14)

     The Lord makes no bones about his disgust for them when He said  .....                    
                    
         
Revelation  3:15 -16  I know thy works, that thou art neither cold nor hot: I would thou wert cold orhot. So then because thou art  lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot, I will spue thee out of my mouth.

     Pretty strong language. Right ? It sure is, because the Lord isn't a whimp and leads the way as He  will do at the Battle of Armageddon. For is this the picture of a whimp or a warrior ?

         
Revelation  19: 12-16 And I saw heaven opened, and behold a white horse;  and he that sat upon him  was called Faithful and True, and in righteousness he doth judge and make war.  His eyes were as a flame of fire, and on his head were many crowns; and he had a name written, that no  man knew, but he himself. And he was clothed with a vesture dipped in blood: and his name is called The Word of God.  And the armies which were in heaven followed him  upon white horses, clothed in fine linen, white and clean. And out of his mouth goeth a sharp sword, that with it he should smite the nations: and he shall rule them with a rod of iron: and he treadeth the winepress of the fierceness and wrath of Almighty God. And he hath on his vesture and on his thigh a name written, KING OF KINGS, AND LORD OF LORDS.

     This is our true Lord, for the first time He came in meekness, but the second time He shall come in all His POWER. And he's doing that right now for us, Is he not ?  For doesn't the Lord fight for us daily in providing and protecting us, and so shouldn't we follow His example. Shouldn't we also help others and stand up for them. We shouldn't be whimps, once He has put us on our feet by His Grace. We need to get strong by following His first commandment of

    
Thou shalt love the Lord Thy God, with all thy Soul, Heart, Mind, and STRENGTH. (Deuteronomy 6: 5, Mathew 22: 37) Smite the evil shepherds if they are hurting the Lord's sheep and fight for the cause of the poor and widows and homeless, even if it is with the pen and your mind. But do it with all your heart, soul, and STRENGTH.

The Lord is not a whimp and neither should we !!!!

Eph 6:10 - 16   Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord, and in the power of his might.Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil. For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places Wherefore take unto you the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand. Stand therefore, having your loins girt about with truth, and having on the breastplate of riighteousness; And your feet shod with the preparation of the gospel of  peace; Above all, taking the shield of faith, wherewith ye shall be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked. And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God:

Amen ?  Amen !!
