Surrounded\u00a0 \u00a0\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

You are our God! \u2026we do not know what to do, but we look to you for help. 2 Chronicles 20:12<\/strong><\/p>\n

The sound of praise is the most powerful weapon we have against the enemy. Our praise defeats our foe. It makes him discombobulated, knocking the enemy off his feet. Why? Because our praise produces power. Make your weapon a melody. Begin to give God thanks and praise for His ability to meet your needs and for the miracle you want to see in your life. Consider the lyrics of Marvin Sapps\u2019s \u2013 Praise Him in Advance<\/p>\n

I’ve had my share of ups and downs<\/em><\/p>\n

Times when there was no one around<\/em><\/p>\n

God came and spoke these words to me<\/em><\/p>\n

Praise will confuse the enemy<\/em><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Michael W. Smith \u2013 Surrounded speaks of a victory that we have over our battles before we know the earthly outcome by trusting that God is going before us and He wins. Sometimes the simplest songs say the deepest and most meaningful things to us.<\/p>\n

Surrounded (This Is How I Fight My Battles) by Michael W. Smith<\/p>\n

This is how I fight my battles<\/em><\/p>\n

This is how I fight my battles<\/em><\/p>\n

This is how I fight my battles<\/em><\/p>\n

This is how I fight my battles<\/em><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n

It may look like I\u2019m surrounded but I\u2019m surrounded by You<\/em><\/p>\n

It may look like I\u2019m surrounded but I\u2019m surrounded by You<\/em><\/p>\n

It may look like I\u2019m surrounded but I\u2019m surrounded by You<\/em><\/p>\n

The devil is a liar, and God\u2019s word is true! We can face our daily battles with more courage and strength because we know that whatever the outcome based on His promise in Romans 8:28: “God works all things together for the good of those who love Him, who have been called according to His purpose<\/em>.” Whatever you are facing, set your attention on the Lord, lift your voice in worship and experience your breakthrough through song.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
