My Banner is Clear!

This week was "spiritual emphasis" aka Summitt on Campus. The following words were put into an amazing video while someone loudly declared the writing. This is an awesome writing it is the inspiring commitment of a young African pastor from Zimbabwe. My question to you is- Is your banner clear!?! Read the following with testified truth, and power. Ask the Holy Spirit to bring to life the reality of this passage.





I am part of the fellowship of the unashamed.
I have Holy Spirit power, my die has been cast.
I have stepped over the line.
The decision has been made. I
'm a disciple of Jesus.
I won't look back, let up, slow down, back away, or be still.
My past is redeemed, my present makes sense, my future is secure.
I'm finished and done with low living, sight walking, small planning, smooth knees, colorless dreams, tamed visions, worldly talking, cheap giving, and dwarfed goals.
I no longer need pre-eminence, prosperity, position, promotions, plaudits, or popularity.
I don't have to be right, first, tops, recognized, or rewarded.
I now live by faith, lean on His presence, walk by patience, am uplifted by prayer, and labor by power.
My face is set, my gait is fast, my goal is heaven, my road is narrow, my way is rough, my companions are few, my Guide is reliable, and my mission is clear.
I cannot be bought, compromised, detoured, lured away, turned back, deluded, or delayed.
I will not flinch in the face of sacrifice, hesitate in the presence of the adversary, negotiate at the table of the enemy, ponder at the pool of popularity, or meander in the maze of mediocrity.
I won't give up, shut up, let up, until I have stayed up, stored up, prayed up, preached up for the cause of Christ.
I am a disciple of Jesus.
I must go till He comes, give till I drop, preach till all know, and work till He stops me.
And when He comes for His own, He will have no problem recognizing me-my banner will be clear.
