To the Christian Under Fire

Be not afraid if man should curse you to your face Arm up and set upon you for your faith You won't be terrified; not even for your life You know before they hated you they hated Christ There will be power to face a powerful enemy God doesn't fear the ones who wish to break your peace It's in the worst of times grace shows up even more As unseen angels clash with satan and his horde If they want you, take heart that your a child of God Did we not trek through martyr's blood to see the cross? It won't be wordly arms that win a heavenly war Hold up the shield of faith; the Spirit is your sword Our God's been down this path so many times before Hold fast to Him and see, the battle is the Lord's KJV John 15:18 "If the world hate you, ye know that it hated me before it hated you" 2 Corinthians 10:3-5 New King James Version (NKJV) 3 For though we walk in the flesh, we do not war according to the flesh. 4 For the weapons of our warfare are not [a]carnal but mighty in God for pulling down strongholds, 5 casting down arguments and every high thing that exalts itself against the knowledge of God, bringing every thought into captivity to the obedience of Christ, KJV Exodus 14:14 "The Lord shall fight for you, and you shall hold your peace."
