Wounded and battle-scarred but still moving on

"Stand therefore, having girded your waist with truth, having put on the breastplate of righteousness, and having shod your feet with the preparation of the Gospel of peace; above all taking the shield of faith with which you will be able to quench all the fiery darts  of the wicked one . And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the spirit , which is the Word of God; praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit." 
                                                                                                           Ephesians 6:14-18

We used to sing a chorus back in the 80's and the words that I remember go like this:

'I am a wounded soldier, 
But I will not leave the fight, 
Because the great physician is healing me! 

So I'm standin' in the battle, 
In the armor of His light, 
Because His mighty power is real in me!'            Copyright Danny Daniels

It was a battle song, one that was built around the Armour of God and as we sang it, we were making a declaration that, we will continue to stand, no matter what we may face. We will not surrender, we will not leave the fight even though we are battle-scarred. The Lord God is our great physician and He is healing us; He is providing a way to get through what we are facing at this time.

You may be wounded at this time. You may be thinking, 'Why has this happened?' There's probably no answer to that, especially at this time. However, should we throw the towel in and quit? NO! A loved one may be sick at this time and you may not see a way through at this time. You're wounded but you can still stand, so stand. Don't give in, the devil would love this. Stand up and fight; establish your ground. You're in a battle, that's true. But Jesus is right beside you, fighting for you. 

Wounded soldier, God is talking to you at this moment. There may be no explanation for what has happened or what you are facing right now. You're hurting, but you're not finished yet. Wounded yes, but you've still got some fight left in you, and what you don't have, Jesus will give you. Stand up, pray, pray and then pray some more. Do some Spiritual warfare. Fight, fight and fight some more. You're not defeated, even though you're wounded. Get up!

I am a wounded soldier, 
But I will not leave the fight, 
Because the great physician is healing me! 

So I'm standin' in the battle, 
In the armor of His light, 
Because His mighty power is real in me!
