2 cor 12:7-10

7To keep me from becoming conceited because of these surpassingly great revelations, there was given me a thorn in my flesh, a messenger of Satan, to torment me. 8Three times I pleaded with the Lord to take it away from me. 9But he said to me, "My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness." Therefore I will boast all the more gladly about my weaknesses, so that Christ's power may rest on me. 10That is why, for Christ's sake, I delight in weaknesses, in insults, in hardships, in persecutions, in difficulties. For when I am weak, then I am strong.

"Hold your ground, hold your ground! Sons of Gondor, of Rohan, my brothers! I see in your eyes the same fear that would take the heart of me. A day may come when the courage of men fails, when we forsake our friends and break all bonds of fellowship, but it is not this day. An hour of woes and shattered shields, when the age of men comes crashing down! But it is not this day! This day we fight! By all that you hold dear on this good Earth, I bid you stand, Men of the West!" - Aragorn in Return of the King

isaiah 62:6-7

isaiah 62:6-7

6 I have posted watchmen on your walls, O Jerusalem; they will never be silent day or night. You who call on the LORD, give yourselves no rest,

7 and give him no rest till he establishes Jerusalem and makes her the praise of the earth

the watchman

the watchman is a call to the body of messiah all over the earth to come and take up their place on the walls of jerusalem. in a day when many call on the name of their god,itis time we stand to declare the name of the who is lord over all of creation.his name is jehovah,el shaddai,adonai,yeshua hamashiach,el gibor, el elyon.his covenant names reveal not only who is he, but what he does.he is god of abraham,isaac and jacob,he is the mighty one of isreal;the captian of the hosts;and the king of all kings! [Ezekiel 33:7] the lord declares "i have made you a watchman for the house of isreal."although jehovah was speaking directly to to the prophet Ezekiel,his words ring out just as true today.
