“King of the Battle, You Go Before!”
I love the song “Every Crown” by Bryan Boliver (posted below). Think about just the first line: “King of the Battle, You go before”. We never go into Battle alone, ever. God always goes before us! What a Blessing! What a comfort! We face no battle alone. And not only do we not face it alone, God Goes Before Us!
The next line is “Ruling in Power, we stand secure”. We who follow Christ are always secure! There is never a time when God does not know everything that is happening to us, around us. He’s GOT this.
“enemies fall to their knees they are defeated”. Our enemies, and the enemies of Christ, WILL be defeated. While it may be customary to focus on God’s Great Love for us, right now, we need to also focus on God’s Great Power as well. The “war has already been won by Jesus Christ”, we need not fear.
“Vanquishing every fear. Hope can begin again”. Doesn’t this make each of us smile. We all know that there are those who oppose and persecute Christians. But it is temporary. There will come a day when ALL Christians will be safe from those who oppose or persecute us. We will be free from those who seek to silence us and we will be able to share God’s Praises without fear. Just as we will be able to share our stories of Salvation and Blessing without fear. For our time will have come ?
“YOU ARE THE GOD WHO SAVES”.
What more need be said? There is only one side worth choosing! ?
