Solider's Change

He marched bravely into battle At least a thousand times But found no way to conquer The battles in his mind Always walking down that lonely road alone Followed by the shadows of all he’d seen and done With a fortress built around his heart That no man could tear down Isaiah 43:18-19 (NLT) “But forget all that—it is nothing compared to what I am going to do. For I am about to do something new. See, I have already begun! Do you not see it? I will make a pathway through the wilderness. I will create rivers in the dry wasteland." God tears down walls with trumpets And the sound of His voice God let him hear Him calling With a whisper changed his heart Ephesians 6:11-17 ESV "Put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to stand against the schemes of the devil. For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the cosmic powers over this present darkness, against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly places. Therefore take up the whole armor of God, that you may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand firm. Stand therefore, having fastened on the belt of truth, and having put on the breastplate of righteousness, and, as shoes for your feet, having put on the readiness given by the gospel of peace. ..." GOD MADE HIM A soldier of Christ From a solider of men With the Lamb and the Lion Forged him into one He brought him from darkness And made him a light Where others find refuge And the Gospel of Jesus Christ
