Today’s Reading:
Psalm 15
Psalm 16
Psalm 119
Hebrews 10
I said to Yahweh, “You are my Maker and my Master. Any good thing you find in me has come from you.” And he said to me, “My holy lovers in the land are my glorious ones, who fulfill all my desires.” Yet there are those who yield to their weakness, and they will have troubles unending. I never gather with such ones, nor give them honor in any way.
Psalms 16:2-4 TPT
I heard the Spirit of the Living God say,
I’m shining My Presence on sons of men. They are carriers of My Glory. This is the generation who diligently seeks Me. This is the generation that hungers and thirsts for righteousness. This is the generation of rising warriors who fear no enemy as they bear My Name well.
Yahweh, who dares to dwell with you? Who presumes the privilege of being close to you, living next to you in your shining place of glory? They are passionate and wholehearted, always sincere and always speaking the truth— for their hearts are trustworthy. They refuse to slander or insult others; they’ll never listen to gossip or rumors, nor would they ever harm a friend with their words. They will despise evil and evil workers while commending the faithful ones who follow after the truth. They make firm commitments and follow through, even at great cost. They never crush others with exploitation and they would never be bought with a bribe against the innocent. Those who do these things will never be shaken; they will stand firm forever.
Psalms 15:1-5 TPT
March on warriors. Where is the example for these rising warriors? It’s in My Word. Is it in you? Is it in you? Can they look to you as a fearless one? Can the look to you as a holy one? As a laid down lover? As one who loves justice and demands justice? Who are you to them? Be the example I made you to be for them. Let your words and your ways agree. Don’t be like those who teach with no experiential knowledge, who cry “run in to battle!” But have no war stories or scars of their own. I’ve called you to be on the front lines. Don’t shrink back and let those rising warriors charge on without you or even in front of you. Why should the youngest be on the front lines alone? It’s only if the seasoned warriors shrink back from duty.
So don’t lose your bold, courageous faith, for you are destined for a great reward! You need the strength of endurance to reveal the poetry of God’s will and then you receive the promise in full. For soon and very soon, “The One who is appearing will come without delay!” And he also says, “My righteous ones will live from my faith. But if fear holds them back, my soul is not content with them!” But we are certainly not those who are held back by fear and perish; we are among those who have faith and experience true life!
Hebrews 10:35-39 TPT
Rise up warriors! Rise up all! This is a call to know your identity, to know your call, to know your station and to man it valiantly. This is the example I desire for the rising generations. Be fearless. Be very courageous. War with strength supplied by My joy. And war for righteousness and justice and for My Name’s sake. This is the legacy I want you to leave. This is the legacy of those who diligently seek Me. All are called to be warriors. You were born on the battlefield. Rise up, and be that fierce and undaunted example for the coming generations. Rise up!
How to Respond
- Seek the Lord for instruction and to be reminded of His assignment for you as a warrior on the battlefield regardless of your age.
- Pray, Lord, show me where I need to change, so I can be the example You desire for me to be for the rising generations. Help me to rise up in boldness and with great courage, in the holiness, purity and strength that comes from Your Presence. I want to war as one who is intimately acquainted with Your Word and Your ways. I repent for the times I have shrunk back in fear or intimidation. I will not allow younger ones to run into the battle in front of me because of any fear or weakness on my part. I will rise up and man my station faithfully, because I am one who is called by the Lord. I was born on the battlefield, and He has trained me to be a warrior.
- Declare, May all your devoted lovers follow me as I follow the path of your instruction. Make me passionate and wholehearted to fulfill your every wish, so that I’ll never have to be ashamed of myself.
Psalms 119:79-80 TPT - Decree, I will not be found sitting on the sidelines allowing younger, less experienced warriors to face these battles alone. I will be found manning my position in courage, boldness and great faith. I will live in purity and love and be an example to the rising generations. I will be one whose life is pleasing and acceptable and a great joy to the Lord of All.
