1. Ho, my comrades see the signal
Waving in the sky!
Reinforcements now appearing,
Victory is nigh!
"Hold the fort,for i am coming"
Jesus signal still:
Wave the answer back to heaven,
"By thy grace we will"
2. See the mighty host advancing
Satan leading on:
Mighty men around us failing
Courage almost gone!
3. See the glorious banner waving!
Hear the trumpet blow!
In our Leader's name we"ll triumph
Over ev'ry foe!
4. Fierce and long the battle rages.
But our help is near:
Onward comes our great Commander,
Cheer,my comrades, cheer!

Hallelujah.I thank the Lord for another inspiration drawn from the song, taken as the hymn of the week,composed by P. P. Bliss also sang by him.The lyrics are so wonderful that mere reading gives hope and beam the light of what the composer has in mind into ones mind.
As Christian soldiers.Christian comrades!We have common goals to achieve and common battles to fight.There is no goal without a fight,no victory without battle.The battle ground has been drawn right from the time the Lord handed over the Great Commission unto the Apostles.It is the will of God.God has ordered that, right from the garden of Eden,provided you have the understanding of what God said in the garden unto the woman and the serpent.
No battle without weapons.The easiest battle employed crude weapons,border related wars,or battles arising from the struggles of power sharing among factions has resulted into the use of sophisticated weapons such as missiles,bombs, nuclear weapons and other mass- destructive weapons,also international disagreements over issues has resulted into worldwide wars! There are many long standing trials and wars which has remained irresolvable.However there is no battle as the one we fight.This is a battle that determines our eternal stakes.The battle between God's Christ and the Satan.
Should we expect bombings and firing of missiles from God's Kingdom into the kingdom of Satan or should it come from the enemy? Though the enemy has long wage war against the Church ,the Lord has not permitted the gate of hell to prevail.The Lord is our commander.The Lord Jesus,He is our Leader and in his name we will triumph.Church don't employ missiles,bombs and guns in fighting this battle because the battle is the Lord.The weapons employed in this battle transcends those military weapons! The weapon of Christ.
I want to sing a song
Who can battle with the Lord/3*
I say nobody,i say no power!
In the name of Jesus every knee should bow according to what the bible said in Phil.2:9,10,11 that God has given Him a name than every other name.That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow.Of things in the heaven,earth and under the earth.That God may be glorified.When He is there with you Satanic knees must bow!To bow means to be in subjection to the Lord Jesus, whether they like it or not.
Are you a Christian,are you one of the Comrades in the Lord?Have you been marked out as the Lord's? Where are you in the Lord? The enemy will come against you if you are on the Lord's side, did you know that? Fierce and long the battle has been now, and if the Lord tarries for the next seconds the battle keep on.However, panic not ,because the Lord is with us.Behold His Signal being wave in the sky.The Lord is reinforcing His own against the host of Satan.Though,mighty men may fall and courage almost gone,what the Lord is asking to do is that,"Hold fast till i come"Onward comes our great commander, so fret not! Instead cheer one another, the fact that, the Lord comes.
As you go in this month, go in his strength and in his strength alone.Victory is near.Go in his grace.You need God's grace not to sin but to fight the battle at stake.You are drawn into this battle once you have confessed Jesus with your mouth,that He is the son of God.Please let me remind you,in this battle there is no truce breakers.You either fight for Eternity with God or perish.There is no neutral point for God but for the Satan.There is no sitting on fence.What i mean is that you can not be neutral on the issue of God and Satan.If you have not given your life to God you can still do so now before it is too late.The enemy may come against you but He shall not prevail.In the Lord alone you have your victory over God's enemy.Remember God is coming to judge the world and if you are not on his side now,He shall judge you as an enemy.
I am inviting you today to join the group of those who says,"By thy grace we will".And will do what? Will Hold fast unto the truth.As you do so today it is my prayer that the Lord shall establish you,keep you from falling away and empower you to hold fast and fight the battle before us.
Christian battle is not carnal,hence our weapon, but it(weapon) is mighty in the Lord for the pulling down of strongholds.Lord we will wait in your power and hold fast your truth.Come... Lord!
