Soldier's Orders: Bold Vision
Write the vision,
And make it plain on tablets,
That he may run who reads it.
For the vision is yet for an appointed time;
But at the end, it will speak, and it will not lie.
Though it tarries, wait for it;
Because it will surely come,
It will not tarry.
Habakkuk 2:2-3 (NKJV)
When Moses led the Jews out of Egypt, they came to the edge of the Promised Land… in eleven amazingly short days!
Twelve leaders were sent in to check it out. Ten of the twelve had negative reports. They all agreed the land was beautiful, but ten saw its owners as giant thugs– and they were afraid.*
Caleb and Joshua didn’t agree. They saw their Lord as bigger and stronger. But… the majority ruled, God got angry, and Moses got stuck with a stubborn crowd… for 40 long and trial-ridden years:
Enough time for ALL adult men to die, except for His two bold visionaries: faith-filled fighters, Caleb and Joshua. Enough time for the Almighty to raise a bright, new generation of heroes.
Fast forward to the age of media, a.k.a. today’s Land of Promises, with 'The prince of the power of the air' (Ephesians 2:2) in unprecedented authority.
It began in the 20th century with silent films. But just about 100 years ago… sound came, and showy scripted lines were spun, which grew into a sticky worldwide web. It charmed, chained, and chumped the people of Earth.
Big kings of con raised stars of cinema. Legions of workers served under these kings, and millions of fans worshipped their idols. When Christians saw the sin and the idols, many condemned the Land of Promises, and they shunned it, because they were afraid.
Actors, models, and talent for Christ:
The fear of the Christian church is faithless. YOU are God’s new generation of heroes: His bold and talented visionaries, His gifted Communication Task Force, who fully trust in the power of God and believe that His promises are real.
No matter what fear-filled Christians TELL you, remember what your Captain did FOR you! TTherefore…
Disregard majority opinion. If God is for you, who is against you? If Jesus saved you, who can defeat you? If you don't go now, who will bring the light?

NOTE: God is my Ghostwriter. If what I write is good, it’s from God. You may see notes to 'Actors, Models & Talent for Christ.' If you think you're not in show business, think again. Shakespeare said, 'All the world's a stage and all its men and women merely players.’ Mostly true. But you're not merely players. You are messengers and ambassadors for the King of kings.
