Warrior, keep Creator Yahweh’s decrees and commands, written in the Sacred Writings (Bible), so that it may go well with you and your children for many generations and that you may live long in the land Creator Yahweh your God gives you for all time.
Remember how your Great Chief and Captain led you all the way through the dark times when you were imprisoned behind paper walls built by people who did not understand how much Creator Yahweh loves the way he designed you.
He was with you through those dark times, whispering his words of love in the wind blowing through the prairie grass and mountain forests. He called you along the singing brook. And inside concrete walls that held you captive, he was still there, bathing his wounded warriors in love. He fed you with every whispered word that fell from his mouth.
He calls you now. “Make ready, warriors, your time is soon to come.” Eat the words of the Sacred Writings as if they are food for you that you cannot live without. They are the arrows that will fly against your enemy, and you will come out the victor in this war.
