GOD MY HELP
By Jim Elliff


O God, my help against the foes,
Invisible in stealth,
Those angels of Prince Lucifer
Who plot to rob my wealth.
They kill, destroy, and capture thoughts,
And would now end my life.
But for the Higher Prince of Love,
They'd crush my life with strife.

Yet every surge of wicked power
Is surveyed from above.
The evil thoughts they have this hour,
Their countering of Love.
O God, the Mighty one who rules,
You have not lost Your hold.
You press these demons in their place,
And make Your servants bold.

While hordes of raving demons stir
Relentlessly about,
Our Lord Majestic will dispatch
His angels on their route.
As tireless soldiers down below,
Who understand the war,
Dressed in their well-worn battle clothes
Kneel down behind the door.

The Dragon’s war cry will be stopped
When Valiant Christ will come.
Theirs is the death cry without end,
But ours will be the song.
For Christ our Fearless King descends,
And ruling out the Night,
We'll sing when Death is cast below:
"No fears, No foes, No fight!”



Suggested Music: “Ellacombe,” Gesangbuch der Herzogl.

Five Resolves for Personal RevivalA tool for bringing biblical discipline into the life "for the purpose of godliness". "Personal revival begins when the believer faces his sin honestly. Though painful, only honesty with God and others will enable the Christian to walk in purity and power. The following resolves are not a formula but are required of every believer. Humbly pray and search your own heart." From Five Resolves for Personal Revival



35 Reasons Not To Sin A rationale for practical holiness. "Because the supposed benefits of my sin will never outweigh the consequences of disobedience." "Because sin makes light of the cross, upon which Christ died for the very purpose of taking away my sin." "Because, though forgiven, I will review this very sin at the Judgment Seat where loss and gain of eternal rewards are applied." Selected from 35 Reasons Not To Sin
