It’s never been of popular opinion or fashionable to stand at attention and serve in Gods Army, but much more the contradictory. It has become the world’s greatest sacrifice for any person to have to give their life to enlist in His service. The retirement benefits are eternal but the road to your rest is full with battles and sacrifice. The small times of joy and fellowship like the birth of a child or the smiles of the one you love are sometime far and numbered.
Don’t get me wrong I enjoy all the blessings and are most thankful for each and ever one of them. The point I’m trying to make is that some times as a solider you feel alone, wet and cold. You start to feel that the others are not being called to the same objective you are. It’s interesting how a specialist is created in a man. It’s an Interesting term “The Special Forces for God”. One set apart and called out by His will not a man’s. As we look to our example of Jesus Christ the greatest leader of all.
As the Vertical Man you will be called forth by the situations of the day to do battle under His flag. You may be beaten, whipped or imprisoned. You may even die and in this battle in full armor with your standard in hand al most life less saying, No I’m not ready to give up and die just yet.
A solider doesn’t ask what or why. He just girds up and stands fast till he is ready for the call to engage. He never knows if he may be sacrificed for so many more or just slain in battle. But he has the assuredly of his leaders that he will not be sent to his death in vain.
The Vertical Man can take any punishment the enemy throws at him. He is well prepared and girded up for battle for as he is strong and at the ready. His eyes are keen and his sword sharpened with the steels of the heavens. His training comes forth form the mind and heart of God. Who would be so foolish to take on the Vertical Man as his foe?
