The Great Battle

The Great Battle

A Poem by Mike Cole

What type of power you got?

Well you can’t mistake the power that He’s got

Being able to conquer death and sin on a cross

Breaking the bond that death had over us

 

That unmistakable power

The grace that was brought

From the price at which we were bought

 

Cause put up for ransom

My God paid it all

He answered his bride at the first call

Cause we were slaves to sin

Just obsessing over vain religion

Forgetting that we were slaves to this disposition

SIN

 

And the perfect lamb

Striking fear into the devil’s eyes

Killing him and all his power

Bringing him to his ultimate demise

 

A demise from which he could never recover

Now God had won

The battle was done

We could never be handed over to another

 

Bringing peace to a land of haters

Those who spit in his face

We were the traitors

But he called us his children

His beloved children

Never again to be burdened

A people once lowly

Were now gifted with the Spirit Holy

 

The rip in the curtain shows proof

A prophecy of years before

No longer considered a spoof

So that all the nonbelievers could see

The power in Christ’s victory

 

But that isn’t it

That’s not the end

He’s coming back

And we will never fully comprehend

The joy we’ll feel when he does descend

The trumpet

The white robe

God’s Army!

God’s Victory!

His people finally being called home

I'd love to hear you speaking it!
It's good in type, of course...but I'm betting that it would be awesome, spoken aloud...

Amen, brother Mike. God is not a fad, or a passing fancy we occasionally hold conversations about in a wooden pew on Sunday mornings. He is a way of life, and the key to being happy, fulfilled and ensured a Mansion in the Sky.

You say this is your first spoken word? And, you want to know what we think...I think, personally, that it was excellent!
