Bible Promises For Soldiers

Do you need someone encouraging you, especially when you are learning to let go of your child to military service? How about when they are difficult places or in harm's way? Do you feel stressed or worried? You are not alone. Elaine Brye and Army Mom Strong have combined their efforts to create a powerful, emotional and inspirational pictorial book of encouragement and support for military moms of all branches. The authors are veteran military moms who have supported many moms through the challenges that come with sending a child into harm's way. "The Heart of a Military Mom" gives you valuable insights to help you to stand strong in the face of fear and on the home front. It is the first in a series of supportive books to inspire you to create a more fulfilling journey as a military mom.

Many Bible believing Christians are convinced that God blesses those nations that stand with Israel and curses those that don’t. This belief has had a significant influence on attitudes towards the ongoing Palestinian-Israeli conflict in the Middle East. Claims made in books like the Scofield Reference Bible and Hal Lindsey’s The Late Great Planet Earth have fed into contemporary Christian Zionism, with radical implications for how we view our faith and the world in which we live. Stephen Sizer contends that this view is based on misinterpretation of the Bible. He provides an introduction to Christian Zionism and a clear response and positive alternative based on a careful study of relevant biblical texts. His intention is to encourage dialogue on the relationship between Israel and the Christian church and offer a more constructive view of the future and our role in it. This accessible volume includes numerous tables and diagrams, questions for Bible study and further reflection, and a glossary of terms. It concludes with a previously unpublished sermon by John Stott on ‘The Place of Israel.’

Where can you turn when you are overcome by fear and doubt? God's Word offers peace and comfort in times of physical and spiritual danger. I am lonely and away from home: God promises, "Do not fear, for I am with you; do not be dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you; I will uphold you with my righteous right hand" (Isaiah 41:10). "Never will I leave you; Never will I forsake you" (Hebrews 13:5). I am uncertain about my future: "Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus" (Philippians 4:6-7). I am faced with temptation: "No temptation has seized you except what is common to man. And God is faithful; He will not let you be tempted beyond what you can bear. But when you are tempted, He will also provide a way out so that you can stand up under it" (1 Corinthians 10:13). I am faced with danger: "God is our refuge and strength, an ever present help in trouble." (Psalm 46:1). "Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil, for You are with me . . ." (Psalm 23:4). "'Because he loves Me, ' says the Lord, "I will rescue him; I will protect him, for he acknowledges My name. I will be with him in trouble'" (Psalm 91:14-15a). I am not sure about life after death: Jesus promises, "Whoever hears My word and believes Him who sent Me has eternal life and will not be condemned; he has crossed over from death to life" (John 5:24). Your best hope in troubling times is to trust your life to Christ. You can do this right now by taking these simple steps: Admit that you are a sinner and that your sin separates you from God. "For all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God" (Romans 3:23). Believe that God loves you, and that He sent His Son, Jesus, to pay the punishment for your sins. "For God so loved the world that He gave His one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life" (John 3:16). Confess your sins and receive God's forgiveness. "If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just and will forgive us our sins and purify us from all unrighteousness" (1 John 1:9). God promises, "if you confess with your mouth, 'Jesus is Lord, ' and believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead, you will be saved" (Romans 10:9). Trust your life to Christ today. You can pray something like this: "God, I realize that I have sinned. Thank you for sending Jesus to pay the penalty for my sins so that I would not be separated from you forever. I turn now from my sins and invite You into my life."
