Faith Under Fire – Man as Instructor


“The LORD is my light and my salvation; whom shall I fear? The LORD is the stronghold of my life; of whom shall I be afraid?” — Psalm 27:1 (ESV)


Every soldier understands that battles do not always come in conventional ways. You train for certain enemies, certain conditions, and certain missions. You prepare yourself physically, mentally, and spiritually for the fight ahead. But sometimes the hardest battles are not fought on foreign soil. Sometimes the greatest tests come when your character is questioned, your motives are misunderstood, and your faithfulness to God comes at a personal cost.


Believe me, I know what that feels like. Several years ago, I walked through a difficult season when public criticism came against me because of statements I made about my Christian faith while in uniform. The headlines were harsh. The accusations were challenging. After spending my life serving and even shedding blood for my nation while wearing the uniform of the United States Army, suddenly I found myself in a battle I never expected.


Yet during that difficult season, God brought me back repeatedly to the words of David in Psalm 27:1 “The LORD is my light and my salvation; whom shall I fear?” King David understood what it meant to be under attack. Before he ever wore the crown, he spent years running from King Saul, a man determined to destroy him. David had done nothing but faithfully serve, yet he was misunderstood, falsely accused, and forced into hiding in the wilderness.
