Reveille: 1. : a signal to get up mornings.
2. : a bugle call at about sunrise signaling the first military formation of the day.
Getting up every morning is not for the faint of heart,
but being properly equipped is the key to success!
And behold, I am sending the promise of My Father upon you.
But remain in the city until you have been clothed with power from on high.”
Now to each one the manifestation of the Spirit
is given for the common good.
Finally, be strong in the Lord and in His mighty power.
For God has not given us a spirit of fear,
but of power, love, and self-control.
Without God's Spirit within,
without His word hidden in our hearts
so we do not sin against Him, (Ps.119:11)
how often we would fall prey to sight
rather than walking/living by faith.
How often we would make choices
based on logic deduced from a human standpoint
rather than simply *obeying God
and trusting Him for the consequences.
God gifts us with abilities to use for His purposes and glory!
May that be our whole-sole-soul goal today!
Wishing you a day filled with joy only His Spirit can instill,
as we trust He who is able in all circumstances!
Without His Spirit it is impossible for us to do well
in life's greatest callings,
such as training up a child in the way they should go...
Come, all who love and fear the Lord, with holy hunger pray
To be a suit of working clothes His Spirit wears today
To be a vessel filled with Light no circumstance can dim
To be, in humble human form a glorious glimpse of Him
Come, all who seek and trust the Lord, believing in his Word
Pour out your heart in earnest prayer for all who have not heard
Who do not comprehend the Light that shines into the dark
Who, like in days of Noah, scorn the safety of faith’s Ark
Come, all who follow and obey the Lord; do not despair
But be the hands and feet of He who keeps us in His care
Put on His suit of armour, like a soldier who prepares
To head into a battlefield suffused with deadly snares
Come, all who love and fear the Lord, with worship’s yielded awe
For purposes infallible; for timing without flaw
For His glory and by his grace, with holy hunger pray
Then be the suit of working clothes His Spirit wears today

2 Tim.2:3
are you now finishing in the flesh?
I ask that out of the riches of His glory He may strengthen you
with power through His Spirit in your inner being,
I can do all things through Christ who gives me strength.
if the Spirit of God lives in you.
And if anyone does not have the Spirit of Christ,
he does not belong to Christ.
You can't 'work out' disobediences to God.
It doesn't work!
