Courageous.... I believe just what He said.
The soundtrack:
Let's talk
....
Today's word is
Courageous
.
The American Heritage Dictionary defines the adjective courageous as:
1. Having or characterized by courage; valiant.
Courageous and valiant are words that don't get much use now at days. They are words that describe
personal
character, and require deep abiding belief in some principle.
Today's soundtrack may sound a little hooky, but it describes the heart-felt convictions of a good man. Someone who really believes in the things he is fighting for. Today it is hard to find such people. People who are willing to give all for a worthy cause. People who are willing to go against the 'crowd' if it means that have to compromise their convictions.
Just for today Christian, be courageous in the things of God. Don't compromise with this world order - stand your ground. Display your faith in God by living this day true to His principles. Don't curse because the 'crowd' does, don't gossip because the 'crowd' does, don't deny Jesus Christ because the 'crowd' does.
We are not called to live by 'polls', public opinion and 'peer-pressure' shouldn't affect the way we think or act. We are called by God into a life well pleasing in His sight. If you believe the testimony God has given of Himself, live like you believe it!
Display Godly strength:
Ephesians 6:10
Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord, and in the power of his might.
We'll talk
