Why is it I only realize now what a Weapon God gave me?

Maybe I have been complaining too much and have been listening

God gave me a weapon and Satan has blinded from seeing it

Every day when I wake up

I know Satan's just ready to try to put a veil over my eyes

A veil made of false truths and lies

It's made of hopelessness and depression

But all I need to do is call on my God for him to rip it off

I have Jesus on my side for this intersession

Prayer is a powerful weapon God gave us

I just wish that I learned how to use it better when I was younger

Maybe then there wouldn't have been such a fuss

Every day I go to war with demons and my evil desires

But when I call on Christ he is my defense

When I pour out myself to him

He as there at whim

I love you Father

Son

And Holy Spirit

I've never been good at an intro

So just let me cut to the chase of what many of you have been through

Addiction

Shame

Guilt

Depression

Anxiety

Losing loved ones

All I can say is that my heart breaks

All around me all I see is pain

But I also see healing that you can't contain

I see broken homes

Broken families that seemed alone

I cry out to you who feel this pain

I know you're at your lowest

I know where you're at

I remember losing the fight but then Jesus came up to bat

You thought you could win on your own

I know now Satan's trying to break my hunger

My hunger for Jesus seems to be dying

But I see now that I'm just inches from winning

What ever it is

What ever the pain

Never let suicide be the way out

Don't pull that trigger!!!

I've had my highs and my lows

My Joy and my Tears

But whatever the pain is I beg of you

Follow Jesus

Because only he

Can Beat it

Broken homes

Broken hearts

Broken dreams

All the trials

Pour out into piles

When I try to grow closer to God it's always two steps forward and one back

It creates more demons I have to attack

All this pain

All this sorrow

It breaks my heart

All of these broken pieces form a ground

That breeds Warriors

Warriors that are strong and determined

Warriors who won't back down

Warriors who are willing to give up everything they are

Warriors who are full of love, mercy, compassion

Warriors who have a righteous anger contained and at bay

Warriors who fight the greatest battles......

Humble on their knees

I once thought my sin was all there was to see in me

But you put a light in me

I ask you would break this heart of stone

And restore it with a heart of flesh

When I jumped into the ring

I dove in over my head

I thought I could fight for my King

But I realized my King fights for me

So I'll just stand on the side lines while my God puts the devil on the ground

And I will stand here and listen to the sound

The sound of your voice

The sound of victory

The sound of glory

There is a light at the end of the night

My heart is clenched
Like a fist

It felt broken

But what was once broken

Has now been healed

When I hear the whispers in my ear

I just want to duck in fear

Because I don't want to hear that sweet voice

When I listen to that call nothing feels more bitter then it's bite

So I'm just jumping into a fight

But the thought of giving up the fight and giving in

Makes my stomach feel like a flying kite

To hear the call of those ancient Gods

Maybe I didn't give them up

The apostle Paul said that the hearts of men walk astray

I just didn't realize how deep the roots of my evil heart had grown

So now its time for my heart to burn

Burn the roots of evil

It was written we were supposed to be Holy as he is Holy

Yet my heart is not

My heart yearns for things of the past I thought that I destroyed long ago

I give those gods up for good

Because the next fix that I get

Won't come from this world

But from the God of love

Everyday

All I feel is unrest

All I hear is the noise

The noise of thoughts moving faster then I thought possible

The noise in my soul

I thought getting away from life would give me rest

But my cluttered mind became more cluttered

The development of anxiety made me think that I had lost it

The noise of the world I couldn't stop

The temptations whispering in my ear

All I felt was restless

Never feeling rest

Unable to experience joy because I was too focused on my problems

The only place I ever found rest

Was at the foot of my King

The only time I ever felt calm

The only place I ever felt peace

Where I found joy

Was at the foot of the cross

So Dear Jesus

I lay this noise down

I thank you for the calm

I just ask for the strength that only you can give me

You are my King

You are my God

You are me Rest
