Warriors, whatever happens in your life, whether good or bad, conduct yourself in a manner worthy of our Great Chief and Captain. If we live, we live for Jesus Yeshua. If we die, let us die for what is right! It is important to finish the work Creator Yahweh has given us to do. He will direct the hours of our lives if we allow.

We should stand together as one people, united in love and standing firm in One Spirit. We should not be frightened in any way by those who oppose us. Yes, we will suffer, that has been granted to us along with the exceeding great promises, but we can also rejoice! For to live is Christ and to die is gain. Our Great Chief and Captain has not left us defenseless but has filled us with Spirit Power to overcome our enemies in the Day of Evil.

Let us encourage one another with these words from the Sacred Writings, especially as we see the Day fast approaching.

Warriors, in these last days we will have trouble, but do not fear. You have given your hearts, your very lives, to Creator Yahweh and he is faithful and true. He will give us the courage to make it through the coming storm.

Even if we end up in chains, we must speak the Word of our Great Chief and Captain more courageously and fearlessly than ever!

We should never do this out of selfish ambition or while pointing a finger. It is important that we do this because love rules in our hearts. The love of Creator Yahweh constrains us to warn of the coming danger and give hope to the hopeless. And we must all remember where we came from, that once our hearts, too, were far from walking in Beauty.

Let us love one another, and all the more as the Day approaches. Through Spirit power we will have sufficient courage to walk the Blessing Way.

Warriors, when we gave our lives to Creator Yahweh he began a good work in us. He will keep up this good work until the return of Jesus Yeshua. You can trust him. He will be faithful to complete it. You need only to look to him for your strength instead of relying on your own.

So, let our love abound more and more and extend to its fullest development in knowledge and depth of insight. Let us encourage one another in walking the Beauty Way.

Then we will be able to discern what is right and vital and excellent and pursue such things with all our strength and courage. In this way we will keep ourselves from stumbling and will not cause anyone else to stumble.

Let us become standing trees, producing fruit to feed the ones we love. In this way even our enemies will eat and be filled and some will be won over. Remember, warriors, we were once enemies to the cause of Creator Yahweh. Wherever there is a breath of life, there is still hope.

Let those who love Creator Yahweh hate evil, for he guards the lives of his faithful ones. He delivers his faithful ones from the hand of the wicked. His light shines upon those he has made righteous through Jesus Yeshua’s blood. He pours out his joy on the upright in heart. Rejoice in your Great Chief and Captain and praise his holy name!

Day after day the heavens proclaim the righteousness of our Great Chief and Captain. All the peoples see his glory. For Creator Yahweh is the Great Spirit over all the earth. He is exalted above all gods. Worship him, warriors, and give him the honor due his mighty name.

Creator Yahweh reigns. Let the earth be glad. Let all his people rejoice! Clouds and thick darkness surround him just as they did at Mount Sinai when he met with Moses. Righteousness and justice are the foundation of his throne. Fire goes before him and consumes his enemies on every side. His lightning lights up the world; the earth sees and trembles. The mountains melt like wax before Creator Yahweh, before the Lord of all the earth.

Warriors, we can trust someone like this. He is able, through Spirit power, to energize and equip us with enough strength individually and as a nation to make a profound mark upon history!

Stand strong! He can take our biggest disappointments and turn them into rich jewels. He will come, and not a moment too late.

Creator Yahweh is the Lord our God. He brought us out of the barren land and cared for us in the desert. He took care of us there in the land of burning heat. He fed us and we were satisfied, but then we became proud and forgot the One who made us.

Warriors, it is time to take words and return to Our Great Chief and Captain. Let us ask him to forgive all our wrong doings. Let us beg him to pour out his grace upon us and receive us once again. Let us determine to not mount warhorses. Let us never again say “our gods” to what our own hands have made. For it is in Creator Yahweh that the fatherless find compassion.

Creator Yahweh will heal all our waywardness and shower us with love. If we are wise, we will realize these things. If we are discerning, we will understand them. The ways of Creator Yahweh are right. Those who are covered with his righteousness walk in them, but the rebellious stumble in them.

Warriors, it is time to break up the barren ground! Let us sow for ourselves righteousness that comes through the blood of Jesus Yeshua. Then we will reap the fruit of unfailing love. It is time to seek Creator Yahweh. He has showered us with his righteousness and rained his salvation upon us.

In the past we have eaten the fruit of deception and lies. Because we trusted in our own strength and in the strength of our many warriors, the roar of battle rose against our people.

The time for healing has come. Creator Yahweh has led us with chords of human kindness and with ties of love. He rises to show compassion on us and desires to lift the yoke of bondage from our necks. There is healing in his mighty wings. Let us respond by sowing compassion.

The Heavens declare the glory of Creator Yahweh; the skies proclaim the work of his hands. Day after day they pour forth speech. There is no tongue or language where their voice is not heard. Their voice goes into all the earth. Have you not heard this voice, warriors? The shout is loud and strong!

The heavens also reveal the wrath of our Great Chief and Captain poured out against all the godlessness and wickedness of people who repress and hinder the truth. For that which is known about Creator Yahweh is evident and made plain in their inner consciousness, because Creator Yahweh has made it plain to them. For since the creation of the world Creator Yahweh’s invisible qualities—his eternal power and divine nature—have been clearly seen by everyone.

Open your eyes, warriors, and see the One who called you by name. Let the mighty wind of his Spirit restore you from deep within.

Warriors, I pray that Creator Yahweh will answer you in the day of trouble! May our Great Chief and Captain set you in a spacious place and defend you from all your enemies. May he send you help from the Sacred Mountain and support you in your work as you serve him. May he refresh and strengthen you in Spirit power. May he grant you according to your heart’s desire.

The day will come, warriors, when we will shout in triumph at the victory of our Great Chief and Captain and in that day, we will lift up banners in the name of Creator Yahweh. 

Some boast in chariots and some trust in their horses, but we trust in the name of Creator Yahweh. Let your voice shout in praise and your feet dance in a song of celebration. Yahweh. Yahweh. Yahweh. He is always faithful and true.
