Story behind the song
Therefore, remember that formerly you who are Gentiles by birth and called "uncircumcised" by those who call themselves "the circumcision" (that done in the body by the hands of men)a€” remember that at that time you were separate from Christ, excluded from citizenship in Israel and foreigners to the covenants of the promise, without hope and without God in the world. But now in Christ Jesus you who once were far away have been brought near through the blood of Christ.
For he himself is our peace, who has made the two one and has destroyed the barrier, the dividing wall of hostility, by abolishing in his flesh the law with its commandments and regulations. His purpose was to create in himself one new man out of the two, thus making peace, and in this one body to reconcile both of them to God through the cross, by which he put to death their hostility. He came and preached peace to you who were far away and peace to those who were near. For through him we both have access to the Father by one Spirit.
Consequently, you are no longer foreigners and aliens, but fellow citizens with God's people (the jews) and members of God's household, built on the foundation of the apostles and prophets, with Christ Jesus himself as the chief cornerstone. In him the whole building is joined together and rises to become a holy temple in the Lord. And in him you too are being built together to become a dwelling in which God lives by his Spirit.
In reading this, then, you will be able to understand my insight into the mystery of Christ, which was not made known to men in other generations as it has now been revealed by the Spirit to God's holy apostles and prophets. This mystery is that through the gospel the Gentiles are heirs together with Israel (the jews), members together of one body, and sharers together in the promise in Christ Jesus.
Lyrics
a€œBattlea€
M. Stepakoff/T. Pearce/B. Whitten
All the nations stand against you
Who among them is your friend?
The King is calling from His throne in Jerusalem
Seeking those that He might send
The Holy Spirit is my armor
The Word of God is my sword
And I am going into battle for Zion
In the army of the Lord
And I am going into battle for Zion
In the army of the Lord
So be strong in the Lord
And in the strength of his might
Be alert with perseverance for the saints
And be praying at all times.
So put on the full armor of our God so you can resist in the evil day
Then standing firm take up the shield of faith
For we wrestle not with flesh and blood
But with the powers of the air
Put on the helmet of salvation and shod your feet
To take the good news everywhere
