It is God who enables us, along with you, to stand firm for Christ. He has commissioned us. 2 Corinthians 1:21
When the navy commissions a ship, it is a big deal. The ship is built with care, goes through plenty of testing, and is approved to complete its mission.
Most often, commissioning is done for ships that are preparing for battle. They don’t know what battle they will see, or if they will even see battle , but their commissioning means they are ready for anything that comes their way.
The ship is well armed. The ship is prepared for battle. It always stands ready to defend our nation.

God does not commission churches. He does not have a plan for groups of people. He commissions individuals. Individuals with a specific purpose, with specific gifts, tested and prepared for battle.
You are not a product of mass production. You are individually created, tested, and given the resources you need for every battle you encounter. The battles in the workplace. The battles on social media. The battles in physical health. The battles in your mind.
Here’s the thing to remember from today forward. You are commissioned by God for todays battles.
You are his plan A, and there’s no Plan B. Go be victorious!
