An old Sunday School song had kids joyfully singing, “I’m in the Lord’s army!” Children who enjoyed playing “Army” with their friends loved this song and the idea behind it, but it seems like many seasoned saints get a little uncomfortable with the idea of a militant Church.
But from God’s well-ordered instructions in the Old Testament of how the tribes of Israel were to move out with military precision, to the New Testament’s directions on how Christians are to wear their spiritual army to fight their battles, it’s clear that saints are indeed a part of the Lord’s Army.
On the pages of Scripture, we are introduced to military leaders—some who are among God’s people and some who are outsiders. From each of these leaders we can learn invaluable lessons for our lives. I hope you will join us for this informative and applicable series of messages.
