be a Shammah

"Next to him was Shammah son of Agee the Hararite. When the Philistines banded together at a place where there was a field full of lentils, Israel's troops fled from them.
12
But Shammah took his stand in the middle of the field. He defended it and struck the Philistines down, and the LORD brought about a great victory." (2 Samuel 23:11-12)


Only two verses, Bible illustrates one of the greatest warriors of David. I don't know much about this guy, Shammah, I prayed to God before I even shared this message. I knew that He has something to say about this man that relates to Impact at this moment. I prayed that I could communicate it thoroughly. I pray that our eyes can be enlightened in Christ Jesus and be open to the Spirit. oh Lord, how would this generation understand Your word if I can't fully describe it. Shammah stands in the middle of the field, where the enemy attacks, destroys, kills and steals. The field of our hearts is supposedly full of God's presence, love, His riches, His joy, peace, hope and faith; but the same field is where the enemy wants to destroy. God, bless this generation and their field. Who sees this? Who stands in the middle of the field? Who doesn't give up? Mature our hearts. We don't want to grow older without becoming more mature in spirit.
Lord, when can Impact see this? In Jesus' name, stop all the insecurity, low self esteem problem, teenagers' love & hate drama! Wake up! In Jesus' name! I also say, I pray that "you may know the hope to which He has called you". Ahhh....! Be a Shammah!
