Soldiers of Christ

Warriors of righteousness, they are the Christ’s soldiers* Persistently marching on with God’s might steadfastly Standing midst adversities, they fight thru faith’s strength Verily empowered by the Holy Spirit. Upholding Scriptural standards of holiness They lift up decency-banner loftily high Battling against evils of immorality Honouring their great Commander’s exalted name. Fear of the unknown does not intimidate them Believing that God knows best by His omniscience As they acknowledge their human infirmities Their trust in the Almighty conquers every doubt. Superiority complex does not grip their heart While in serving, they exercise humility Never allowing arrogance-domination With their complete surrender to the Lord’s control.
*2Timothy 2:3 Thou therefore endure hardness, as a good soldier of Jesus Christ. May 16, 2019
