Stand Firm
by michelle nance

Right now we face a great battle,
Why – we don’t understand.
The enemy’s fierce and foreboding,
Stand firm – with the power of truth!

The evil one’s always scheming,
We must always be aware.
He uses strategic deception,
Stand firm – with righteousness!

We’re not fighting against mere people,
It’s not about flesh and blood.
There are powers and rulers of darkness,
Stand firm – with readiness!

We come against spiritual forces,
In the heavenly realms.
We are targets of fiery arrows,
Stand firm – with the shield of faith!

The day of evil is coming,
We must continue to stand.
To resist our evil enemy,
Stand firm – with our salvation!

Now take up the sword of the spirit,
We attack with God’s word and stand firm!
Pray in the spirit always,
Stay alert and persistent in prayer.
