Is the Lord's Army the Devil's Deceived?

By Cynthia Rushing

Every kingdom throughout history, including our modern world countries, had soldiers for protection. There are a few reasons kings establish armies of soldiers; to protect from invaders and to advance the territory that belongs to the king. The army also keeps the peace of the land and the kings' decrees. The soldiers obey the kings' directives without questioning the king's directives or his authority to send them. Today, we may not have physical kingdoms anymore as they did in medieval times but two kingdoms do exist and we must make a choice about which kingdom we want to live in.

The Kingdom of God is ruled by the King of Kings, and the Kingdom of Darkness is ruled by Satan. Satan is the ruler of this world and we have to live in this world without being a Citizen of the Kingdom of Darkness. We serve the King of Kings and Lord of Lords. We must represent our King in such a way that we are immediately identifiable as Citizens of the Kingdom of God.

We are in a battle for our souls. Our enemy is alive and well and roaming the earth seeking whom he may devour. He has infiltrated the Body of Christ with a teaching that says the battle is already won and we no longer have to fight. Many Christians have laid their weapons down and become prisoners of war. It is time, Church, to rescue our prisoners and advance the Kingdom of God.

Cynthia Rushing

I am first and foremost a Christian that believes in the whole Word of God as the inspired Word of the One and Only Living God. I am a mother and wife. I live in Texas with my husband of 17 years and our 4 beautiful children. I love to camp, canoe, fish, and spend time with my family as often as I can. I have wanted to be a writer for most of my life but have never found the time to sit down and dedicate time to writing. With four children, time to myself can be in short supply. I wrote some poetry when I was in high school but did not fully pursue my desire to write. My "day job" is a healthcare administrator. While I love working in healthcare, it is time for me to move into what God has planned for my life. I enjoy writing and I enjoy sharing what God has taught me through different events that have ocurred in my life. Writing is a great way to share what He has done for me and in me. I pray you find truth in what I write and share with my readers. My full testimony can be found on my blog at http://mythoughtsontheword.com
