Our Weapons of War

Jan 16, 2002
By: Rick L. King

No weapon formed against us shall prosper
Because the Word said it, then it is true
It doesn’t say the weapon will not be formed
But it says that it will not prosper against you

When we take up the shield of faith
We quench all of the enemies’ fiery darts
So a key to winning against the devils wiles
Is to believe God’s Word down deep in our hearts

The enemy will always attack
Especially after a victory we did gain
His job is to steal, kill and destroy
So on a victory parade he will try to rain

The enemy always attacks our mind
He tries to plant a lie
If we don’t know what God’s Word says
Then on what truth can we rely?

The devil has already been defeated
As Jesus took away the keys
To death, hell, and the grave
So this we must stand and believe

The devil only has power against us
When we fail to believe what God said
He always tries to convince us of a lie
His method is to play with our head

God did not give to us a spirit of fear
But a spirit of love, power and a sound mind
If the enemy can come a steal our goods
Then in God’s power we can never shine

We do not wrestle against flesh and blood
But against rulers of darkness and principalities
We must deal with the spirits over a place
If we are to see the people be set free

There are many spirits in the heavenlies
That will rule over many a town
The key is allowing the Holy Spirit
To use us to pull the stronghold of the enemy down

God said that the weapons of our warfare are not carnal
But they are through our God’s might
We must pull down the strongholds of the enemy
And prepare the way for God’s light

We have the Name of Jesus
The Name that is above every name
We have the power of the Holy Spirit
The power that was in Jesus, yes the same

We have the sword of the Spirit
The mighty Words of God that were said
We have mighty spiritual weapons of war
So victorious over the devil we may tread

If we do not take up our weapons of war
Then we will never win a fight
Evil will conquer over good
Wrong will win over right

Jesus gave to us the keys to His kingdom
But these keys we must take up and use
If we don’t as a church take up our weapons of war
Then this battle we are going to lose.
