Song #27: “Greater Is He” (1 John 4:4; Rev. 12:11)
This scripture has been one of the most useful tools to me and those I have ministered to over the years. To know that Jesus in me is greater than any outside opposition is not only a huge comfort, but it’s empowering.
The song is on “Life Changing Words”, my latest CD, which you can download at wesmichaelgorospe.com.
Lyrics:
Greater is He that is in me(you) than he that is in the world
We(you) are of God, little children, and we(you) have overcome.
By the blood of the Lamb, and the telling of our stories,
And we loved not our lives unto the death.
Through the cross, we have overcome…
By His blood, we have overcome…
Sometimes in life we find ourselves faced with challenges that seem too big an obstacle to get past. The trial, or test can seem so daunting that it’s almost like it is mocking you, laughing at you. It could be something physical, mental, emotional, financial…it could take many forms, or several forms at once.
Circumstances like these test your faith. It’s in these situations that songs of scripture promises will give you a tangible weapon to fight back against, or through the problem. Countless times, I have recited
“Greater is He that is in me than he that is in the world” to myself, and counselled others to do the same. When you recite this over and over, Holy Spirit will attend the Word, and you will begin having confidence in Jesus, who is in you, and He will deliver you from your enemy’s torment. The enemy can only lie to you that you are defeated. The Word of God has real power to overcome, and the songs can help you remember the promises in the Word when you need them most.
Next time you’re facing a giant, speak the Word out loud; let the promises of God surround you, fill you, and pull you through.
It’s for this reason these songs of scripture exist; to help you overcome.
Be Blessed, Wes
