Stand Firm
November 10, 2020
Now is the time to stand firm on the gospel
The word of God written deep in your hearts.
The enemy is engaged, enraged, and violently seeking
To overcome My children, asleep in the dark.
Awaken, arise, oh siblings of Jesus,
Armed with truth, to the battlements hie thee,
For the battle is on, for the souls of your loved ones,
Fight in this war; I am there with thee.
You have slept far too long, while the enemy has mustered
Troops to kill and destroy all those you love.
Awaken, arise, oh siblings of Jesus,
You must tarry no longer, take up arms for the fight.
The enemy has sowed deceptive weeds in your fields.
They have ripened, and are choking your crops.
As if that weren’t enough, weevils and pests
Have been released to devour what remains.
“Stand firm my children”, says the Father to his chosen.
Put on the armor of My Son’s word.
Though you appear to be badly outnumbered,
Fear not for I am always by your side.
I call the weak to overcome the strong
Not by their strength, but by faith.
Let my Word light each step of your path
As you go where I lead in this fight.
You have been soft my children.
You have swallowed the evil one’s lies.
Though they tasted sweet on your tongue,
When swallowed, they curdled inside.
Expel this evil from within you.
Vomit it out on the ground.
See how it destroys all that it touches
As it did when it burned down inside you.
Sharpen your hearing. Listen to my voice.
Don’t be distracted by what you see.
Be not afraid, for I go with you,
And will provide all the strength you need.
You say you’re too old to fight in this fight,
Too frail for the battle, you claim.
Rely on my strength, my power to guide you,
And all manner of things will be well.
All will be well. All will be well.
All manner of things will be well.
Heed Thou my words spoken for you, and
All manner of things will be well.
