Unashamed
Posted: Sat Oct 12, 2013 6:43 pmI'm 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'm a disciple of His. I won't look back, let
up, slow down, back away, or be still.
My past is redeemed, my present makes sense, my future is secure. I'm
finished with low living, sight walking, small planning, smooth
knees, colourless dreams, tamed visions, mundane talking, cheap
living, and dwarfed goals.
I no longer need pre-eminence, prosperity, position, promotions,
plaudits, or popularity. I don't have to be right, first, tops,
recognised, praised, regarded, or rewarded. I now live by faith, lean
on His presence, walk by patience, lift by prayer, and labour by
power.
My face is set, my gait is fast, my goal is heaven, my road is
narrow, my way rough, my companions few, my guide reliable, my
mission clear. I cannot be bought, compromised, detoured, lured away,
turned back, deluded or delayed. I will not flinch in the face of
sacrifice, hesitate in the presence of the adversary, negotiate at
the table of the enemy, ponder at the pool of popularity, or meander
in the maze of mediocrity.
I won't give up, shut up, let up, until I have stayed up, stored up,
prayed up, paid up, preached up for the cause of Christ. I am a
disciple of Jesus. 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 have no problems recognising me - my banner will be
clear!
