Most Christians believe that if they were confronted with a spiritual crisis, they would be ready for battle in the name of Jesus Christ. When trouble came to Jesus' disciples, they scattered.
We are no different than Peter when he disowned Christ. What makes a saint fit for a crises is the daily worship of God and learning from His Word. We cannot go from a babe in Christ to Christian soldiers without having first been on God's training ground which is our daily worship of him and seizing opportunities He gives us. It is as Luther said "the kingdom of God is my love for you and your love to your brother." We need to start at the beginning if we have never been there. Then when trouble comes, we will be useful to our Savior.
Daily Prayer: Lord Jesus, let us not serve you in our own flesh. Let us learn to walk by the Spirit by abiding in Him so that we will not meet the desires of our flesh. In Your Holy Name I pray Amen.
