I AM A SOLDIER

I AM A SOLDIER
(Written by an evangelist and preached by Bro Mark McGaughey)



I am a soldier in the army of God.
The Lord Jesus Christ is my Commanding Officer.
The Holy Bible is my Code of Conduct.
Faith, prayer and the Word are my weapons of warfare.
I have been taught by the Holy Ghost, trained by experience,
tried by adversity and tested by fire.
I am a volunteer in this army and am enlisted for eternity.
I will either retire in this army at the rapture or die in this army,
but I will not get out, sell out, be talked out or pushed out.
I am faithful, reliable, capable and dependable.
If my God needs me I am there.
If he needs me in Sunday school to teach children, work with youth,
help adults or just sit and learn, he can use me because I am there.
If he needs me in Church Sunday morning, Sunday night,
Wednesday night, revival or special services I am there.
I am there to preach, teach, sing, play, pray, work or worship.
God can use me because I am there.
I am a soldier; I am not a baby.
I do not need to be pampered, petted, primed up, pumped up,
picked up or pepped up.
I am a soldier.
No one has to call me, remind me, write me, entice me, or lure me.
I am a soldier.
I am a soldier; I am not a wimp.
I am in place saluting my King, obeying His orders, praising His Name.
No one has to send me flowers, gifts, food, cards, candy
or give me handouts.
I do not need to be cuddled, cradled, cared for or catered to.
I am committed; I cannot have my feelings hurt bad enough
to turn me aside.
I cannot lose enough to cause me to quit.
When Jesus called me into this army, I had nothing.
If I end up with nothing I will still break even.
I will win. My God will supply all my needs.
I am more than a conqueror.
I will always triumph for I can do all things through Christ.
Devils cannot defeat me; people cannot disillusion me
Weather cannot weary me; sickness cannot bind me.
Governments cannot silence me and Hell will not have me.
I am a soldier, even death cannot destroy me for my commander calls me from the battlefield.
He will promote me to Captain
and bring me back to rule this world with him.
I am a soldier in the army, and am marching, claiming victory,
and will not give up or turn around for
I am a soldier marching Heaven bound.
Will you stand with me?
