Mighty Man of Valor

Mighty Man of Valor
Music & Lyrics: Dennis Jernigan

Verse 1
Let no temptation define who you'll be
No present feeling
No past failures, you're redeemed
No weapon formed against you
Can ever reach as far
As the depth that I've redeemed you
Just be who the Father says you are

Just because a battle
Seems never to end
Doesn't mean you losing
Just means you've something to defend

And child you must remember
Who you are called to be
A mighty man of valor
No matter what
You have the victory

Chorus
Take up the stone of faith
And put that giant down
Take up the sword of the spirit
Take back that stolen ground
And lift your praise to the Father
Who gives you victory
You are a mighty man of valor
A child of God, victorious, redeemed

Verse 2:
Knowing Christ is worth the battle
That is waged against your mind
With each giant you've defeated,
Seems four more come right behind

Fight the fight and do not waver
And warrior run the race
Mighty warrior overcomer
You win the fight by trusting in His grace
(repeat chorus)

Bridge:
Just because you fall
You're not defeated
Never sound retreat
Get back up and lift the standard
Of the overcoming king
Don't give up though you grow weary
By His grace rise up again
For the truth is
When the dust of war is cleared away
We win!

A wonderful song written & sang by my favorite Christian singer Dennis Jernigan. I really love him a lot. His songs are always so real and have the ability to minister into my life. Different seasons in life his song just have so much impact in my life

Once again his song minister to my heart. How true it is that the greatest fear in life is not the outside forces, but of what is being created inside of you. If you are able to conquer your own fears, nothing will be too hard for you to handle.

Many a times self doubt and fear is what is holding us from what God has promised to be given to us. He longs to give us what's best for us. Yet it is us that's preventing His blessing to flow into our life.

How true the above song is hor?
Temptation, feelings of rejecting, past failures etc, all of these we have allowed them to define who we are. But the fact is God never define us the way we define ourselves. God called us his child, mighty man of valor, overcomer, redeemed etc.
Jesus has free us, therefore forever & ever we will be free.
John 8:36 "So if the Son sets you free, you will be free indeed" (NLT)
Indeed like what the bible says we are all set free and redeemed by God's darling son Jesus. Therefore only God has the right to define us.

God always ask us to trust in His grace and that Jesus has already won the victory over sin for us. His grace is sufficient for us at all times. I am not going to give up without a fight. I know I'm weak. But Christ in me is strong. All I have to do is to believe that I have the victory in Jesus.

Father God; help me never to allow self doubt to hinder what I am going to be in Christ Jesus. Help me oh Father to put my trust in you always. Help me to have faith in you.

Thank you Father for your grace. How could I ever thank you enough for your grace that’s been so wonderfully displayed in my life.
Father I need your grace in my life always.
Father I need your love.
