When at war

"Don't let the annals of Heaven say "Here is the record of a warrior who could have been, who could have defeated Satan, but he or she ran in fright when faced with the opportunity". What a horrible thing that would be. Instead, let this be the inscription next to your name: "Here is recorded the tale of the undefeated warrior of David. Within this record is an example of an overcomer. The halls of heaven proudly salute (your name here)"." -Jesus

"War means fighting. The business of the soldier is to fight. Armies are not called out to dig trenches, to throw up breastworks, to live in camps, but to find the enemy and strike him; to invade his country, and do him all possible damage in the shortest possible time."
-Stonewall Jackson, a general in the American Civil War.

"You ask what is our aim? I can answer in one word: Victory. Victory at all costs. Victory in spite of all terror. Victory however long and hard the road may be. For without victory there is no survival." -Sir Winston Churchill

"We shall have all eternity to celebrate the victories, but we have only the few hours before sunset in which to win them." -Amy Carmichael

“The weapons of our warfare are not carnal, but mighty through God to the pulling down of strongholds” (2 Corinthians 10:4).
