BATTLE CRY!

When your standing on a battlefield starring at your enemy. Knowing that you are out numbered and can easily give up. There is one thing that gives you courage and motivation to push forward. One thing that gets rid of fear and brings intimidation to your enemy. A Battle Cry! See A Battle Cry is a word or a phrase that you say to fire you up. It is something that gives you the hope when your looking at an enemy that just wants to destroy you. The reality is that we are at war every day of our lives. We all fight battles every day and we all end up wounded. There are two sides to choose from. Good and evil. You take away one letter and add another and you have the two generals that lead the army. God and the Devil. I have fought for both sides and believe me when I say God's team is the only team you need to be on. Trust me though when I say when you choose God's team you will fight and struggle so much. When you choose the Devil's army you will have a life that is pleasurable, sinful and you can do whatever you want.

Now you may say to yourself why would I want to join the good side where I will have to fight daily? The reason is simple...THE CROWN OF LIFE. The only reason you will ever need to fight for God is the Crown Of Life. You are fighting for your future and your salvation. What does the Devil promise you if you fight for him. Sin, heartache, failure, wickedness, and eventually that leads to nothing. You have two sides to choose from. One promises life, blessings, and love and the other destruction. The reason why more people choose the Devil's side because it's the easy way out. It's the side where you can find pleasure but not satisfaction. You can find lust but not love. You can find a free ride but not to paradise. Being a God fighter is hard, hard work. No doubt! Those who endure temptation, those endure the struggle, those who endure the fight will get the reward. YESUS GITANO is my battle cry and It took a good friend to help me realize why I needed a battle cry. You need a battle cry to help you push forward. To help you stay in the fight and to know that what your fighting for is worth everything. What is your BATTLE CRY?

Am I Saved?

When I think of being saved. I picture somebody who is lost or in trouble and wants help. In a sense that is what it is like to be saved by Jesus Christ. See in life there are people that are saved and some that are not. What does it mean to be saved? Christianity is based on a center point which is Jesus Christ. In order to be saved you have to believe and trust Jesus is the Messiah and put Him first in your life. Many Christians that claim to be saved do not put Jesus first in there lives. They seen the glory and greatness of God but yet do there own thing. So are you saved? Am I Saved? Now if we believe in God and make Jesus the Lord of our lives but are not heading in the direction God appointed for us. Then no, I don't believe we are saved. How can we be saved if our lifestyle and our choices are not God focused. You see the moment you choose Jesus. BAM! Your life, your choices, and your mind should all be transformed. How do you know if your transformed? The people that know you and interact with you daily should be the best witness to your transformation. The moment you said yes, the world you live in should eat, sleep, and breathe God. Everything you say and touch should be inspired by God. WE CAN'T BE REDEEMED AND STILL BE A PART OF THE DEVILS PLAYGROUND.

Being saved means that all of God's love and grace flows through us for the world to see. Our lives should feed the Gospel to the hungry and bring the Living Water to the thirsty. God created us in His image to do good works in which He prepared in advance for us to do. Whether we take the wrong road or get stuck in the ditches on the right one. All it takes is for us to call on Jesus for help. That is what makes you saved. Having Jesus in your heart so much that anytime you need help. Turn to HIM. Every time you get tempted or feel the pressures of the world around you. Turn to HIM. You turn to Jesus not drugs, alcohol, porn, money or any other outlet you think will cure you. The devil is always out to confuse you and take away your salvation. It all comes down to choice. Is the pleasures of sin worth your freedom? Is sleeping with the devil worth losing your Savior? We will always be sinners and unholy. But we are loved more than we can ever imagine and that is why God give us grace. God loves us so much that He is willing to overlook our blemishes so we may enter His Kingdom. We are sinners by nature but we are saved by God.
