TOPIC: CAIRO: THE HERO DOG!

BASIC SCRIPTURE: PROVERB 20: 1-11

The dog that was injured in the raid that killed ISIS leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi is back with his handler and recovering from his injuries. Last year, President Donald Trump (USA) released a photo of the celebrity dog as he hailed the dog’s actions while describing how the world’s number-one-most-wanted terrorist and ISIS LEADER was killed. This unknown dog chased the ISIS LEADER al-Baghdadi down a dead-end tunnel when the ISIS leader detonated a suicide vest, killing himself and three children. The dog suffered unspecified injuries. This beautiful and talented dog was simply called ‘K-9’ for security reasons. The “K-9s” have a tremendous success rate when it comes to targeting terror chiefs.

I remember that a Belgian Malinois dog breed named CAIRO accompanied the Navy SEALs (special military unit) who killed Osama bin Laden in 2011, and reportedly helped guard the fence perimeter while the SEALs tracked the al Qaeda founder down. Wow! Dogs! As loyal as ever! In fact, TIME MAGAZINE awarded CAIRO its “Animal of the Year” award in 2011 — before his identity was made public. And what the Holy Ghost wants you to know is that sometimes, we must COPY the FAITHFULNESS of DOGS! Do you know that there are more truthful dogs than humans? One Emily Dickinson said: ” Dogs are better than human beings because they know but do not tell.” Hear from Martin Luther: “Where the battle rages, there the loyalty of the soldier is proved.”

Yes, dogs are more faithful than millions of souls AND DOGS CAN FOLLOW YOU TO YOUR BATTLEFIELD! How many people can still be your friends in ADVERSITY/DANGER? That’s why I once had about 15 dogs! Oh! See how David cried in Psalm 12:1 “Help, LORD; for the godly man ceaseth; for the faithful fail from among the children of men.” He was saying that FAITHFULNESS and LOYALTY ARE disappearing from the earth! Then Proverbs 20:6 asked: “Most men will proclaim everyone his own goodness: but a faithful man who can find?” A FAITHFUL MAN OR WOMAN who can find? In this year 2020, always know that your only TRUST is GOD and your “DOG.” Men or women can betray you at any time!

Men will leak your secret! Men will envy you! Men will try to PULL YOU DOWN and abandon you at any time! Men will be men! God will be God: EVER FAITHFUL! No wonder Mother Teresa said: “Be faithful in small things because it is in them that your strength lies.” Close with Joyce Meyer: “Faithfulness is not doing something right once but doing something right over and over and over and over.” Let God and man know you to be a man or woman of your words! About 249,000 ODM users of today’s devotional are owing vows they made at various times in churches/society! GO AND PAY THOSE VOWS! Be known for keeping to time! Be an example when it comes to LOYALTY! Prove that you are BETTER THAN CAIRO-THE HERO DOG!
