Worship is Warfare


What does one do when the enemy is up against your back
breathing, heaving, huffing and puffing, clinging and singing
mocking, and a boast, happy that they have gotten so close.

Stand still my daughter and do not move, I am here
closer than close is my Holy Ghost, living and breathing,
fighting and loving with you, in you, watch what I can do!

I am watching and looking for all your signs, eyes open
I am praying and talking to you through my day, mouth wide
I am listening and quiet to know and hear what you may say

How long will you let them stay? You know when they will go away!
How long will I be standing here, still? Silent. When will you speak?
Do not be fooled, who mocks the Living God? What is sown they will reap.

Who is greater than my God? Who can stand in your presence?
Why do we fear the power of man? Dust is not to be feared.
Shake off the dust from them! Praise Him alone, the Great I AM.

What does one do when the enemy is up against your back?
You praise, the one who saves! The Last Word! By him we’re made.
You praise! You praise! You praise! You praise! Worship is our warfare.
