Sometimes ago in the American Army, a battalion was dropped behind enemy lines. Initially, it was believed that the enemies were not aware, however, the enemies eventually surrounded the battalion. Once it became clear that the battalion would be defeated, the leader of the group phoned their headquarters for support saying We are totally surrounded and outnumbered at least 100 to 1; send the Marines. Legend has it that the phrase send the marines was derived from this event.

At that time, only three Marines were available for the assignment and they were all sent. They worked all night and created a path for the battalion to escape. While the battalion was moving, they saw thousands of dead enemies. The three commandos had killed them in just one night.

There are ordinary Christian soldiers and there are Christian commandos. As for me, l have determined not to be an ordinary soldier for Christ, I want to be a commando. What about you?.

Commandos go through the most rigorous qualification training. That is why a commando for Christ can weather any storm. He is unshakable. Job was a commando. No wonder he stood strong and even came out stronger in the face of adversity. The true strength of a boxer is measured by the opponent he/she faces. Likewise, the strength of a true Christian soldier is known by the kind of opponents he/she has brought down. If an ordinary insult is enough to bring you down, then you are not yet ready to be a member of this select group in the army of Christ. If you are still finding good excuses to commit sin, you are obviously not yet ready for the training, talk less of becoming a commando. If you would be used by God, you must go through the training. Just as no one can join the army without being fit, God cannot use an untrained person.

If you would be a commando for God, you must go through the most rigorous training. Surrender all and make yourself available today. Stay on the winning side.
