The Watchman’s Creed
I will watch because the Lord has called me to watch.
I will search the Scriptures before I speak.
I will test every spirit and weigh every word by the written Word of God.
I will pursue truth over popularity, obedience over recognition, and holiness over influence.
I will not add to God’s Word, nor diminish from it.
I will speak with courage, but also with humility.
I will pray before I proclaim.
I will warn without fear and encourage without compromise.
I will guard my heart so I may faithfully guard the truth.
I will remember that discernment begins with submission to Christ.
I will stand upon my watch until the Lord speaks.
I will watch for His promises, His purposes, His warnings, and His return.
I will labor to rightly divide the Word of Truth and faithfully steward every revelation entrusted to me.
I will seek not merely to be heard, but to hear.
I will remember that every gift is given for service, every calling for stewardship, and every watch for God’s glory.
I am a servant of Jesus Christ. I am a keeper of His Word. I am a watcher upon the wall.
By His grace—
I will watch.
I will weigh.
I will walk.
