War

Your word oh God is like unto a lamp that guides the footsteps of your flock inscribed upon their hearts like a stamp and the path of the master they stalk On the road to Mount Zion they walk and the gifts they bring you in praise about their redeemer and King they talk and his banner is the one that they raise Their garments resemble the spirit of light and crowns of radiance upon their head wield the Word of Truth do they fight with principalities the earth will shed Against the rulers of darkness they stand the fallen sons of God and their wiles they hold the shield of faith in their hand to defend against that which defiles They wrestle not with flesh and blood against the strongholds of darkness they wield with the gospel of peace are their feet shod and the sword of the spirit in the field They fight against those who mankind would harm the war is not with weapons of steel they have gone forth to sound the alarm to flee from the gods where the fallen do kneel The knowledge of God teaches love and truth and tender thoughts of understanding so many minds acquired hatred in youth and with the armies of Demons are banding To understand God his Word you must know discerning the powers that rule in his stead the Word who is master the truth will you show least on the wrong path you be led The sword of the spirit is the Word of Truth God does not torture or rape The Demons are ones who with war do sooth and the face of this world shape sources IICor. 10:3-6 Eph. 6:10-17 Mark 13:2 II Tim 3:1-5 Apocalypse 11:18 , chptr 19 COPYRIGHT © all rights reserved 2010 C Michael Miller via Duboff Law Group LLC
