Stand

Stand

When you find your appropriate spot,
Challengers will dare to knock you off.
Rivals will test you to see what you got,
Taunt, tempt to entrap you with scoff.
Should they be unable to irk your nerve,
Rest assured the struggle is not done.
The blitz will intensify with more verve.
Evil acts may be masked as harmless fun.
The whole intent is to bring you down,
To draw you into their misguided band.
No matter what, don’t you breakdown.
Brace yourself and maintain your stand.


Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord, and in the power of his might. Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil. For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places. Wherefore take unto you the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand… Ephesians 6:10-13

At Calvary, Jesus stood in our place to take away our sin that we might be in right standing with God. He is standing at the right hand of the Father making intercession for His people right now. He stood for you. Are you in right standing with Him?
