Those are Fighting Words

We are in a spiritual battle (unless of course you've already conceded to the enemy of your soul. He doesn't fight you when he's already got you.)

Tonight God brought a couple of old hymns to my mind with some powerful messages and I thought I'd share. Sometimes we all need encouragement and although these songs aren't scripture, they definitely encouraged me and maybe will lift someone else up.

Keep on the Firing Line

You must fight, be brave against all evil.
Never run though foes combine.
If you will fight for God and the right,
Keep on the firing line.

When the Battle's Over We Shall Wear a Crown

When the battle's over we shall wear a crown.
We shall wear a crown. We shall wear a crown.
When the battle's over we shall wear a crown
In the new Jerusalem

(Any RLC people feeling a Buddy beat or a Jericho March coming?)

To me the point is, keep on fighting the devil and don't let him win. It will all be over and the coming of the Lord is sooner than we think. I'm not big on accessories, so the crown doesn't excite me, but the claiming final victory over the devil, now that is something that makes me shout! Praise God! The victory has already been won!

So keep on fighting!! Your victory is guaranteed over the devil!!
