I am a part of the fellowship of the unashamed. I have Holy Spirit power.
The die has been cast.
I have stepped over the line.
The decision has been made.
I am a disciple of His.
I won’t look back, let up, slow down, or back away.
My past is redeemed, my present makes sense, my future is secure.
I am finished and done with low living, site walking, small planning, smooth knees, colorless dreams, tame vision, mundane talk, cheap giving, and dwarfed goals.
I no longer need preeminence, prosperity, position, promotion, plaudits, and popularity.
I don’t have to be right. I don’t have to be first.
I don’t have to be recognized, praised, regarded, or rewarded.
I now live by faith, lean on His presence, walk by patience, live by prayer, and labor by power.
My face is set, my gait is fast, my goal is heaven.
My road is narrow, my way is rough, my companions few, but my guide is reliable, my mission clear.
I cannot be bought, compromised, detoured, lured away, turned back, diluted, or delayed.
I will not flinch in the face of adversity, hesitate in the presence of the adversary, negotiate at the table of the enemy, ponder at the pool of popularity, or meander in a maze of mediocrity.
I won’t give up, let up, or shut up, until I have stayed up, prayed up, preached up, and paid up, all for the cause of Christ.
I am a disciple of Jesus Christ. I must go till He comes, give till I drop, preach till all know, and work till He stops me.
And when He comes for His own- He will recognize me. My banner will be clear!
