Time To Beat the Devil Down

It's time to beat the devil down.
It seems he is always hanging around.
Wake up feeling good;
take ten minutes, he will show up
fast as he could.
You have to get ready,
keeping your righteous heart steady.
Be prayed up and praised up
because you never know
just when he will show up.
Remember to God be the glory
just honor His righteous story.
Born into sin
in a Bethlehem inn.
No place for Him to lay;
only a bed of hay.
He walked among us
trying to show us
that great is the Lord
who sent Him from above.
And great is the Father.
Know that Jesus accepted
his role as no bother, 
but as an example to all
that at His Father's feet we must fall.
When we hear His call
be ready and quick to accept Him,
walk with Him, obey Him.
No time for worry, take away the frown.
Just rise above it because,
It Is Time To Beat The devil down.
Be armed in His Word
Be armed in His Spirit
Be armed with His love
Be armed with His wisdom
keep your righteous heart steady;
come praying and praising.
You have to be ready
fall down on your knees, fall down.
It is time to beat the devil down!!!!!
