About marshalling your forces for victory…

1 Chronicles 19:17  When David was told of this, he gathered all Israel and crossed the Jordan ; he advanced against them and formed his battle lines opposite them. David formed his lines to meet the Arameans in battle, and they fought against him. 18 But they fled before Israel, and David killed seven thousand of their charioteers and forty thousand of their foot soldiers. (NIV)

We can easily live our life at loose ends. We can live our life as if there is no tomorrow. When we live our life at loose ends, we end up never assessing and using the forces we have at our disposal. If we do not marshal our forces for victory, we can never gather ourselves or get our life together so we can win. To achieve victory in life, you must know your forces. To achieve victory, you must gather your forces together and channel your power. You do not want your forces scattered unless there is an advantage to scattering. You want your forces together so you can maximize their strength. Some of your forces are the minute by minute blessings you can count. Every blessing is both a power you can add to your arsenal as well as a message from God about how you are doing in being His child. Your forces are your ability and your willingness to be forgiving and let old hurts die away. Your forces are your abilities to love and accept others, no matter who the others are or where they are.
