Victimized or Victorious? By George Thurlow Don't live your life as a victim And let the devil knock you around; For satan has been defeated You now are on higher ground. Lift up your head towards heaven, Don't listen to the lies; For in Jesus you are victorious And the old self it has died. For Christ has freed you from bondage, From your shackles you are released; Don't keep yourself imprisoned For the Truth has set you free. "For greater is He that is within you Than he that is in the world": Don't be swallowed up by circumstance, Be dragged down by the swirl. Just claim those things He promised For Christ has paid the price: Nothing can have a hold on you Because you have new life. Don't cower and crawl on your belly For you are a child of The King; In Him you lack nothing, He has given you everything. Turn now from idolatry, Do not complain and moan; For when you are focused on your own self, You place yourself upon God's throne. You were made to serve Him; He has equipped us everyone: Cry out for fire and power Through His strength the work be done. Just keep your eyes on Jesus; Resist the devil and he will flee: Keep walking in the Spirit, Christ has won the victory. |
