(BATTLES, DEFEATS & VICTORIES)

FORWARD EVER!
-------------------------------------
“To be candid, if they had a retrospect of the country which they left, they would have had good reasons to go back.” Hebrews 11:15 TVB (in view)

'A soldier does not fight hard because he wants to come back and meet what he left behind, nor because the person facing him is an enemy, but he fights because he needs to stay alive.'

Abraham obeyed God's voice to leave Chaldean - Babylon; present day Iraq. If he had not, his descendants would have been part of Iraq today. For decades, Iraq has witnessed insurgencies and troubles more than any other nation of the world. Though rich in crude oil deposits, she is very poor as a nation.

In contrast, Israel has remained a peaceful and self-sufficient nation in terms of Agriculture, technology, engineering, etc. Abraham's obedience gave his generations a better place.

Heed God's voice calling you today. Don't allow SIN, lack, pressures from pleasures of this world, to keep you back. Fight those future battles today with just obedience. ‘Do not retreat, Do not surrender! Onward ever, Backward never!

PRAYER: Oh Lord;
1. Create in me a new heart that races after your word.
2. Save me and my family from future crisis by your word in Jesus name, Amen.

Read: Heb. 11
