I am a soldier for God! If I am not a soldier for God, then I should die and my soul be destroyed, and any remembrance of my name should perish that my existence not hinder those whom stand with God War is upon us! We battle in spirit. Our conflict is so that our own flesh betrays us. We do battle in the spirit.
Oh, that I could cast aside this mantle of man. That I could strip myself of this cursed flesh of blood and bone. Eh, that I would be free of desire, save a longing to be with God, to serve God, to honor God.
What manner of man turns on his master to elevate his own stature. To dishonor God is the most grievous sin! Honor God in all you do I say! Prostrate yourselves before God, and sacrifice yourself to his will.
My will is weak. My heart pursues foolishness. In my flesh is harbored evil. I cry to God for salvation! Deliver me from evil dear Lord. Frree me from this bondage to sin that doggedly pursues my soul. Father fill me with the spirit. Cleanse me of my sin through the blood of your precious son Jesus that I may e delivered form damnation. Make of me a clean and pure vessel I pray my God, that you may be able to use of me how you will. May I forever serve the kingdom in your Holy name!
Amen
Hello!
My name is xxxxxxxxxxx. I have spent a great deal of time on your website in the last week. Recently God taught me how to let go of me and trust in him. I was unable to obey until I learned to trust. I am a soldier in training (I accepted the title and then found your site… how about that!) I am committed to the kingdom for eternity. I wrote the above prayer while reviewing your reception packet. I didn’t get far before I was moved to write. I am writing to thank you for your website. What a great work for God. Praise be to God and thank you all for your diligence in creating such a site.
Thank You!

i've had abortion, i did it because i was raped by four men, i couldn't bear the birth of a child with no father and i had to cover my shame of being a rape victim, now i can't get over the guilt of killing an innocent child. will God ever forgive me?
Can God Forgive An Abortion?
Yes - He can and does.
God loves you. He will forgive anything wrong, evil or wicked you have done. The worst people we can think of, such as David Berkowitz (the Son of Sam mass murder) have accepted Christ and been forgiven. And He forgives the sin of abortion.
How do you get His forgiveness?
Don't Feel Picked on or Special: We have all done wrong and are in need of God's forgiveness, including you, me and everyone else. "For all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God." - Romans 3:23 (NIV)
We've All Done Wrong: To sin means we have disobeyed God. We have done something wrong--and we all have done wrong.
If we break one of man's laws, maybe by robbing a bank or selling drugs, and we get caught--we can expect there is a penalty we'll have to pay. We'll end up in prison, for example.
God's Penalty: The thing is, God knows everything we do. Whenever we disobey Him (break one of His laws) He knows it--and we must pay the penalty for breaking His law.
With God that penalty is death.
"The wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord." - Romans 6:23 (NIV)
And Now The Good News: God loves you. He doesn't want you to die. He wants you to be with Him forever. But, God is also just and fair. The penalty for what you've done wrong must be paid. He can't just let you go, that wouldn't be fair to everyone else. So what God did was to find someone who would take your punishment for you. Someone else died so that you would not have to die--that someone else is Jesus Christ.
"For God so loved the world, that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him shall not perish, but have eternal life." - John 3:16 (NASB)
Jesus died in your place so that you may live. God sacrificed His own son so that you may live. And only the Son of God, who was perfect and without sin, could take on all the sins of the world. It was the only answer, and God did it.
God gives you this gift of forgiveness, free. But it's not automatically yours. You must choose to accept it.
Open your heart to God. Recognize what you've done wrong and give those sins to Jesus trusting Him to pay the full penalty for those sins, leaving you clean and pure before God.
There are no special words to say that make this happen. It's what is in your heart. However, if you wish to use it, we have a short prayer you can use:
Lord Jesus in heaven, I recognize that I am a sinner. I need You in my life. Thank you for dying on the cross for me. Forgive me. I accept you as my savior and Lord. Guide me, lead me, inspire me to be the person you want me to be. Show me how to follow in Your steps. Through Jesus' name I pray. Amen.
Blessings,

Greetings In Jesus Name,
Thank you so much for your wonderful teachings and what you do for the Lord.I visited your website and was much blessed,uplifted and encouraged by your teachings and ministry.
My name are Brother XXXXXXXX from Western part of Kenya-East Africa. I am pasturing a congregation of currently forty brethren. I am the founder and leader of the group. I am married with two daughters. I am not secularly employed. My wife is in charge of our little piece of land where we grow vegetables, bananas, potatoes and maize to support our family and keep the ministry going. We work very hard to make ends meet.
We are not affiliated with/in any church or ministry organization. We are carrying out our bible study and services under trees. We do not have funds to put up a tent of worship. We are getting it too hectic worshiping in the elements of the weather (rain). Please do pray about this so that the Lord will open ways for us to get funds to put up a structure and roof so that we can conduct our services and worship out of the elements of the weather. Here in our area it often rains.
We also do not have access to Bibles and Biblical teaching materials. We have only two K J V English Bibles we were blessed by a friend. Most of our folks are uneducated and unemployed hence poor. We are located in a village.The very few who work in other peoples farms (manual labor) earn less than dollar a day. They cannot afford to purchase a copy for use during our services and also for their own personal private devotion and study. They most prefer Native language Bibles(EKEGUSII). The cost of one such Bible is $10. We are praying that the Lord open us ways of financial blessings so that we can get a copy each for our folks for easy understanding of the word of God. Please pray about this as well and feel free to help as the Lord directs you.Your labor for the Lord shall not be in vain.
Our aim is to be strengthened into a deeper understanding of the word of God. We are therefore seeking to be established in a good sound biblical founded ministry/church,in order to receive direction and to be established and empowered to be effective in the Lord's service and the ministry that the Lord has set us apart for.
The following are some of the activities we do in our ministry:
1)Bible study-Wednesdays
2)Services-Sundays
3)House to house personal soul winning
4)Open air Souls winning Outreach
5)Hospital Visitation
6)Caring of orphans
7Home fellowships merry go round home cell fellowship
We are hereby, requesting your ministry board of honour to consider our congregation with filled and inspired spiritual teaching materials and more so extend your ministry unto us here in Kenya. Also kindly please do consider having a visitation unto our country to minister in God's appointed time.
I did not write to you by accident! God knits the hearts of me together for His own purpose and glory! I have been praying for God's direction concerning my life and ministry during the past few Months. In the course of this time, the Lord led me to your website. I visited it and was blessed, uplifted and encouraged so much by your teachings. I have been using your teachings in our fellowship and they have helped many greatly. Please pray for us. We have limited access to the internet. We do not have our own computer and printer. I travel 20km to our nearby Town to a commercial cyber cafe to access the internet. If we had our own computer and printer, the we could easily access your website and then we can have unlimited printing capability. We can then use these teachings to help our people better understand the word of God. Please pray that a computer and printer be supplied to us by the Lord.
Also please pray for our fourteen orphans under our care. They were orphaned during the 2007/2008 post elections violence in our country. They ran to us for help and we could not throw them away. Please pray for the basic needs(Food, Shelter, Clothing and Education).
The most pressing need at the moment for this orphans is food. There is hunger and an economic crisis here. Prices of food have gone so high. We have used all the food in our store. We are just wondering where the next meal will come from. We the older members in the group do go fasting for two days to save food for these precious children so that they do not starve to death. We sometimes skip meals to save food for them. Please pray for us.
Hope to hearing from you soon.

I never realized how much of a chauvanistic pig you actually were and I am glad I got out. I chexk up to see how your site is coming but I see you are pulling farther and farther from God all the time. You truly have much to learn. Good bye.
So now we've resorted to name calling? I'm truly sorry you feel that way about me and the SOCOM ministry, but I have yet to hear a valid complaint from you (or your friends and/or alter egos) on what we are teaching erroneously. You say we are pulling further and further from God, but you don't specify where. Tell me where in the Bible it says that we are not to be Soldiers for Christ? Show me where we have posted false teaching on the SOCOM website that goes against Scripture? XXXX you can't expect to engage someone on different viewpoints and not have a way to back it up. You must first know what you are talking about and then be able to present your case with proof to show WHY you disagree. That's like running into battle head first, weapon in hand, without any ammunition.....you just don't do it. You must carefully choose your battles and fight from a position of strength.
XXXX it has been almost a year since you decided to break ties with this ministry and I can obviously see you still feel pretty raw about it. I wish things could be different between us, but this is how you wanted it. SOCOM is a non-denominational/non-doctrinal ministry that goes strictly by the Word of God, the Holy Bible.
I challenge you show me where we are going against Scripture. If you can provide the book, chapter, and verse in Scripture, I'll look into it. If you are proven correct, I'll personally post a formal apology on the website and correct any mistakes. But if your intent is to only make empty accusations against this ministry without any substance, then may The Lord rebuke you XXXX.

There still exists nothing of God in your site but words only. This makes it look only more like a video game. I don't think you truly believe in God but the secular version of God. Become true soldiers. Semper Fi.
