How To Beat the Heat

the heat is on and the temperature feels like its hot as hell
the heat is on in every aspect of life in these turbulent times as well
environmentally, economically and politically society is at the boiling point
people are frustrated, discombobulated their noses are all out of joint
even when one's trying to do the right thing the devil will bring on the heat
to keep you under the fire and make your life's assignment much harder to complete

to beat the heat be aware of the darkness brought on by fear
to beat the heat trust in God and believe that His light is always near
for no matter how the devil's darkness attempts to diminish God's light
remember Jesus is your salvation and for you He'll fight the good fight
don't allow the heat to make you weak and give the devil a stronghold
for when the devil gets in he might win and cause you to surrender and fold
stand firm in your convictions and girded up in the words of Christ
don't let the heat bring you defeat and allow the enemy into your life
put your trust in the Lord God and surrender to Him your soul
chill out, let go and let God have total control
you can't fix everything as you don't have the ability nor the tools
its not about luck its about being blessed by the God who rules
so put your confidence in the power of the Lord
He's your strength and in Him all is in accord
you won't need shortcuts nor do you need to make any deals
for God has the ability and capability to even bring the devil to heel

a woman recently came under fire the enemy brought on the heat
her words out of context were used against her and she then resigned in defeat
but God was working on the situation His mighty hands were now in the mix
and after the truth was brought to light her reputation and integrity were fixed
she chilled out and placed her confidence in God's righteous hands
she was then vindicated and all sorts of apologies at her feet did land
 
how to beat the heat that comes with life's fiery darts
how to beat the heat is to have a righteousness of heart
God will deflect, God will protect, and cover you with the blood
to keep you cool and not by the devil be made a tool by placing you high above
to beat the heat put your mind on Jesus and not look left nor right
lift your eyes to the Lord, your Redeemer, your Salvation, your Light
let God provide, let God guide and let God drive while you're in the passenger seat
let all be in accord as you chill out with the Lord is the best way to beat the heat
