                              Stand


Stand up.  Stand up and face me.  Set your face towards me like flint and do
not be swayed.  Do not be distracted by the lies of the enemy.  Do not even
listen to him.  Set your face towards me.  The battle will rage on either
side of you.  Look to me.  The wind will howl around you.  Look to me.  I am
your fortress and your stronghold.  I will let nothing harm you, though the
battle rages, you stand safe.  Look to me.

I am able to do exceedingly abundantly more that you know.  I will slay the
enmey and turn this time of darkness into light.  I will take the impossible
and make it possible.  I will smash the gates and locks the enemy has
erected against me and I will move in power.  I will move in righteousness.
Be assured of this.  I will move on your behalf.

I am with you always, even to the ends of the Earth.  Allow me to be your
provider, your help and strength, your rock and your firm place.  Stand
firm.  Stand.  No matter what storm rages; no matter what battle is fought
around you, stand.  Set your face like flint towards me.  I am your help.
