God is Fighting for Us!

Last week, someone on my Facebook feed, posted part of a video of Darlene Zschech singing the chorus of the song In Jesus' Name. To say the least, it rocked my planet. I'm going to put the lyrics here and suggest to you...no, I'm going to TELL you...all the way from South Africa...BUY THIS ALBULM!!! Buy it...listen to it...listen to it again...sing it loud...allow it to permeate your very being! Yes, it's that good!

"In Jesus' Name"

God is fighting for us,

God is on our side

He has overcome,

Yes He has overcome

We will not be shaken,

We will not be moved

Jesus You are here

Carrying our burdens

Covering our shame

He has overcome

Yes He has overcome

We will not be shaken,

We will not be moved

Jesus You are here

I w

ill live, I will not die

The resurrection power of Christ

Alive in me and I am free

In Jesus' Name

I will live, I will not die

I will declare and lift You high

Christ revealed and I am healed

In Jesus' Name

God is fighting for us,

Pushing back the darkness

Lighting up the Kingdom

That cannot be shaken

In the Name of Jesus,

Enemy's defeated

And we will shout it out,

Shout it out

Those of you that know me, know that I love a good worship song. You know that worship is a passion in my life. I believe that life should be a musical, and to tell the truth, this week it has been...at least in my head! I've had this albulm running almost non-stop since I bought it, and this is what I've noticed...God is pushing back the darkness!

Africa is a very spiritual place and most of them are not of the Holy Spirit kind. BUT!!!

GOD IS FIGHTING FOR US,

PUSHING BACK THE DARKNESS

LIGHTING UP THE KINGDOM

THAT CANNOT BE SHAKEN

IN THE NAME OF JESUS

ENEMY'S DEFEATED

AND WE WILL SHOUT IT OUT, 

SHOUT IT OUT

I live in a place where they tie beads around the small children to keep them safe from said spirits. BUT!!!

GOD IS FIGHTING FOR US,

PUSHING BACK THE DARKNESS

LIGHTING UP THE KINGDOM

THAT CANNOT BE SHAKEN

IN THE NAME OF JESUS

ENEMY'S DEFEATED

AND WE WILL SHOUT IT OUT,

SHOUT IT OUT

Where witch doctors place spells on people and, because they believe the spells are stronger than God, they die. BUT!!!

GOD IS FIGHTING FOR US,

PUSHING BACK THE DARKNESS

LIGHTING UP THE KINGDOM

THAT CANNOT BE SHAKEN

IN THE NAME OF JESUS

ENEMY'S DEFEATED

AND WE WILL SHOUT IT OUT,

SHOUT IT OUT

I live in a place where there are days when you can feel the oppression rolling in like the tide. BUT!!!!

GOD IS FIGHTING FOR US,

PUSHING BACK THE DARKNESS

LIGHTING UP THE KINGDOM

THAT CANNOT BE SHAKEN

IN THE NAME OF JESUS

ENEMY'S DEFEATED

AND WE WILL SHOUT IT OUT,

SHOUT IT OUT
