Good day, Valiant
Men. I trust that you have found this site without challenges. Instead of simply
sending out e-mails with what the Lord has placed onto my heart, He has led me
to a different medium with more possibilities of impacting your lives on your
journey to becoming Valiant Men of God. For now, I am going to use a sub-site to
my own website until one is set up specifically for our "Nuggets." This past
week, I received an e-mail from Dr.
Alan Meyer, the author and teacher of the Valiant Men course that most of you
have taken. In his e-mail, he gave me his personal blessing and encouragement
(confirmation) as to the "Nuggets" given to me to share with you. So, off we go
onto the next stage of our journey.
The last time we met, the word went out to
"Get Out Of The Trenches" and begin speaking life into the women in our lives
and then onto those we meet out "in the world." But in doing so, we must also be
overly cautious to guard our hearts. In Session Nine, it tells us "[Be] Thankful
For What God Has Given Us"; or in other words, be content with our wives.
Dr. Meyer says that "Coveting is the
tendency to believe that happiness could only come with something I DON'T have.
"You shall not covet your neighbors wife ..."" Yes, the grass may
seem greener on the other side of the fence, but as one who has been on the
other side, the green grass quickly dies out, weeds take over, the ground
underneath hardens, and death becomes evident. As Valiant Men of God, as the
enemy flees the women we begin to bless, those same women may look toward you
for additional strength and comfort. Know that this may be the enemy giving his
last ditch efforts to lead you into sin. If you feel this happening, get your wives
and fellow brothers involved as intercessors and join forces to stand in the gap for all of the
women for which you have prayed our blessing over. Please click below:
In a message this past Sunday, the Pastor
was very adamant about us "Taking up the Shield of Faith." I believe that he
used the words, "above everything else, take up the Shield of Faith." As you
continue to bless the women around you, know that Faith will overcome
everything. It will overcome your fears and will even give you second chances to
be obedient. For those of you who haven't used your organs of speech to bless
women openly, beginning with your family, lean on the Shield of Faith, use it to shield against the
nervousness that the enemy is trying to instill upon you. But don't hide behind
it; for the Shield of Faith is to be used in Spiritual Battle, not to shield
you from blessing others.
Until next time, keep your eyes on Jesus.
