If you ever plan to accomplish something of significance here is one thing you should remember:
‘faint hearts are not fit for battle’
There are certain things that are not allowed in a confrontation and a faint heart is one of them. A faint heat is a prerequisite that separates those who are not ready and should return home. This not an incrimination but evidence that the heart is missing the basic necessity for success.
Understand that if you are going to accomplish anything significant you will have to pass through difficult situations. A faint heart is one that has lost its strength and energy. The heart may have been strong at one point but some where along the line it has grown weaker and more emaciated.
Several things can cause a faint heart.
1 – weariness from the stress of the confrontation
2 – conditions of danger that arise in the confrontation
3 – tendency to break under repeated pressure
4 – the wrong mindset and thought patterns
Here are two strategies to protect yourself from a faint heart.
1 - spend sufficient time alone with God
2 - obey as directed
God is more concerned about where the heart is and where it should be than were it was or where it came from. So, keep the heart strong and do not let it become faint, then success and faith size results will be your reward.
