The Lords Army

Ephesians 6; 10

Finally be strong in the Lord and His mighty power.

Early morning in Louisiana was rather cold and bleak as we bundled out of the several cars that had drawn up outside of the correctional institute for women.
We made a long line and were given a laminated card with the full armour of God printed on it from Ephesians 6; 10 -18 to be read out by the 50+ volunteers.
Then it was time to file into the prison one by one to collect our security badges, the start of another Kairos weekend.
I was a spectator in training to take this remarkable ministry back to the women’s section in Polsmoor prison in South Africa.

Quote from C.H. Nash

There is a call then for recruits in the army of the Lord who are prepared to enter the school of discipline and give their lives without reserve to the exemplification of these ideals which our Master Himself put to the fullest proof and by which He overcame the world.
