Battle In Me

Always looking back was the attack. Lack of strength in Jesus, Trying to find things that could please us. Not enough to keep me going and have the Holy Spirit flowing. Breaking through was what I had to do! Years of emotional punishment, and disgrace were shown all over my face. There was an empty space, That was the place, I held on to, not knowing what to do… Crying, and Crying, For God to start prying those doors of my heart, That for so long, Were closed just for me to do wrong! Seven years of so many tears… And yet with God’s fear! One day it became clear My eyes in astonishment, quivering with chills feeling the tingling hit me from head to toe My heart pounding so hard that it hurt, in the eagerness of rejoicing Wanting to move forward but something held me tight In all that thought of being held down Yearning for more Fading, feeling once again crashing To that same darkness that overcame me at first... When can I push? The doors of my heart are in battle Is it me or is it he? I don't want him no more God come heal me! Take this emotional power that has me bound. I rebuke you Satan get out of my head, for the power of God wants to enter the doors of my heart. No more turning back I want to see the Glory And the glory will never be in you Satan, IT’S IN GOD!!!
