Jobs are important, important jobs need important people, and important people need training, and after training they are placed, where they suit, the very best according to the one who trains, both people for training and for battle. People want to know why they are getting trained the way they are trained, and for what they are trained, and that’s not important that they should know all the details about the training, for the One who trains does both the training and gives success, said Solomon, the wise man: “The horse is prepared for the day of battle, But deliverance is of the Lord.” (Prov 21:31) Do your best, prepare for the worst—then trust God to bring victory. May we, who desire employment in the army of God, be willing to pay the price of discipline, that only gives us both training and success.

Abba, Thank You for letting us go through the training, that the job needs. Let Your Spirit strengthen our muscles to withstand the training, and make us run the race, and win, for we are only trained to win, and win only, In Jesus’ Most Powerful Name, Amen.
