"Then Saul and all the people who were with him assembled, and they went to the battle...Moreover the Hebrews who were with the Philistines before that time, who went up with them into the camp from the surrounding country, they also joined the Israelites who were with Saul and Jonathan. Likewise all the men of Israel who had hidden in the mountains of Ephraim, when they heard that the Philistines fled, they also followed hard after them in battle."
I Samuel 14:20a, 21-22
Some people have no backbone – no convictions. They only want to be on the winning side. When things gets tough, at the least they run into the hills to escape the battle, or even defect and join the ranks of the enemy just to save their own skin. They have no true convictions about God, His truth, or His people, and can switch their allegiance at the first sign of trouble just to be on the winning side. God calls us to be strong and stand for truth even in the face of opposition.
Today's Thought: God calls us to stand firm for His truth through thick and thin.
Have a committed day. Love you.
