Becoming a Soldier of Jesus Christ

Book excerpt: THERE IS A WAR FOR YOUR MIND! Our minds are the main battlefield we fight on. It is here where we decide what to believe or disbelieve. What we believe determines whether we are victorious or defeated in life. No one can do your thinking for you. This book will aid you in developing a victorious mindset. It will help you become the soldier of Jesus Christ you are called to be. One does not become a soldier of Jesus Christ overnight. It is a process of developing a winner's attitude and learning the weapons of our warfare. I propose that our main battle is not with demons, but with mental strongholds. Demons can only dwell in places of darkness or strongholds built on lies. When these lies are repented of the oppressing demons must leave as the light of truth invades and destroys those strongholds. This happens as the believer confesses the truth of God's word and believes it. After the believer believes the truth of God's word they begin to live these truths out in their lives. Their life becomes a testimony to others and encourages others to become over comers. My hope is that everyone reading this book develops a stronghold of hope. That they will believe they can overcome and possess their mountain or promises. This book will challenge you to overcome your ungodly strongholds or lies you believe and help you to see the role you play in changing the world around you. Jesus Christ is raising up a victorious Church that is overcoming the darkness of this age. It is not a timid Church, but a bold Church. Many believers are wounded emotionally and spiritually. In order for these believers to fight they must be healed. In this book you will find healing for abuse and trauma. Like any great general Jesus Christ visits the wounded in the camp and encourages them. He will visit you through this book and heal you. You will become strong again and serve in Christ's army!
