19 September 2010 - ENCS

From Brisbane, Cityspring Live made a long trip
To lead us in a rousing time of praise and worship
Then Pastor Larry used Ephesians 6 verse ten
As part of the "Be The Church" series again
If to the Lord we really belong
Then we are assured of being strong
As we read in Daniel 11 verse thirty two
He stayed strong in God rather than be untrue
God told Joshua to be strong and courageous
Before entering the promised land - how outrageous
Pastor also referred to Acts 19:11-12
And into Paul's deeds he did delve
Following on in verses thirteen and fifteen
Speaking of our faith has the enemy seen?
With God we must have a relationship
Per Philippians 3:14, us He will then equip
Then our strength can face all conditions
And thwart all the enemy's ambitions
In the same way, per Ephesians 6:11
We need the full armor of God from heaven
If any of the pieces we do lack
The enemy will scheme and attack
From Galatians five verses nineteen to twenty one
The list of our sinful nature was just begun
But per 1 Corinthians 15:57-58
Thanks to God, we have a victory great
Remember not to trade the truth for a lie
Doing so may lead to strength going bye-bye
And don't worship the creation instead of the Creator
That will only lead to punishment later
Going back to Ephesians chapter six
Verses 14-17 list our weapons to fix
Truth, righteousness, faith, and peace
Salvation and the word of God shall never cease
Salvation for us is not a one time event
Every day, we must affirm our intent
For if God's love we do accept
Then God's promises will be kept
It is notable that Ephesians 6 verse 18
Says the same as 1 Corinthians 16:13
Stand firm, be alert, be strong, and pray
This is what Paul said to do every day
