2 Chronicles 20:17

 

But you will not even need to fight.

Take your positions;

then stand still and watch the LORD's victory.

He is with you, O people of Judah and Jerusalem.

Do not be afraid or discouraged.

Go out against them tomorrow,

for the LORD is with you!"

Every day - Put on the Full Armor

Take up your sword. His Word will Reign.

 

 

A New Name

“To the one who is victorious, I will give some of the hidden manna.

I will also give that person a white stone with a new name written on it,

known only to the one who receives it” - Revelation 2: 17

Psalm 94 - Lover of Justice

 

 

"Can Misrule have anything in common with you?

Can Troublemaker pretend to be on your side?

They ganged up on good people,

plotted behind the backs of the innocent.

But God become my hideout,

God was my high mountain retreat,

Then boomeranged their evil back on them:

for their evil ways he wiped them out,

our God cleaned them out for good."

Purified Soul

And as the troubles, like waves, keep on coming, You send me answers.
You send me word to keep me calm. To strengthen my faith...

2 Thessalonians 1 v 6, 7 & 11:
"God will do what is right.
He will give trouble to those who trouble you.
And he will give rest
to you who are troubled.

...God will help you do the good things you want
and perform the works that come from your faith."

Isaiah 48 v 10:

"I have made you pure,

but not by fire, a silver is made pure.

I have purified you by giving you troubles."

 

Worship is a War Song

Worship is a war song.

It’s acknowledging your power

Your strength

Your victorious grace.

 

Worship is a war song.

I find myself on my knees

Being quiet

Being calm in your embrace.

 

Worship is a war song.

Your chariot in the clouds

Your presence -  

carried on the wings of the wind.

 

Worship is a war song.

With thunderous drums

An angel choir worships with us -

Your Holy Ghost drifting on the melody.

 

Worship is a love song.

My grateful heart, ever-serving

With sword in hand, ever-praising

Victoriously resting in your truth.

Psalms of a grateful heart

So many of David's Psalms allow me to smile amidst all of this:

97 v 9 "You are the Lord Most High over all the earth

you are supreme over all gods."

 

97 v 10 "...The Lord watches over those who follow him

and frees them from the power of the wicked."

 

97 v 11 "Light shines on those who do right;

joy belongs to those who are honest."

 

98 v 2 "...He has shown the other nations his victory for his people."

 

 

99 v 4 "The King is powerful and loves justice.

Lord, you made things fair;

you have done what is fair and right

for the people of Jacob."

 

104 v 3 "...You make the clouds your chariot

and you ride on the wings of the wind."

 

112 v 4 "A light shines in the dark for honest people."

 

112 v 6&7 "...Good people will always be remembered

They won't be afraid of bad news;

their hearts are steady because

they trust the Lord."
