The Armed Forces have units called Special Forces. These men and women are cross trained for maximum effectiveness in an operational environment. They conduct operations in hostile, denied, or politically sensitive environments to achieve military, diplomatic, informational, and/or economic objectives. They employ military capabilities for which there is no broad conventional force requirement. These operations often require covert, clandestine, or low visibility capabilities. 

The month of June is the fifth and final month of preparation for war and specifically designed training by the Holy Spirit. As I looked at the qualifications and the requirements of a special forces operatives, some names came to mind. I think Jesus, as the son of man, was the first and greatest special forces operative. Then there is Paul, Moses, Gideon, Martin Luther, Billy Graham, Martin Luther King, Jr. and others. Can you image your name on that list? Have you told the Lord, “Here am I, send me?” You have to be equipped for any and everything the devil throws at you, if you are going to be successful in this war. This is true whether you are a special forces operative or not. Dedicated time in prayer, study, and worship is mandatory. I am excited about the plant in the picture. Are you?
