Shai Linne - Cosmic Powers lyrics

[Verse 1] There's a war going on outside no man is safe from You can run but you can't hide forever And most people don't even know they're in danger They've been around a long time, they know human nature Cosmic powers over this present darkness Heartless with smartness, targeting the narcissists Their leader is Satan- the fowler with the snare The Bible calls him the prince of the power of the air The lower case god of this world- a reign of terror Tempting people to make one of two major errors One is saying that he's not responsible for anything The other is saying that he's responsible for everything So one part of the church, all they do is speak on him The other part is just as bad because they sleep on him So in light of 2 Corinthians 2:11 I wrote this song and I'm addressing it to the brethren [Hook] The Devil's lurking and he's prowling in the night Seeking whom he may devour on sight He's subtle and he's clever, full of malice and spite He might even come as an angel of light So how you gonna stand, bro? How you gonna fight? Be strong in the Lord and the power of His might How you gonna stand sis? How you gonna fight? Be strong in the Lord and the power of His might [Verse 2] This invisible war has a lot of effects And Jude said show these dudes their proper respect They operate powerfully, it's deep fam, you gotta see The world, flesh and devil form the three-man camaraderie Satan uses the world to tempt the sinful nature The power of suggestion, that's how they infiltrate ya There's no new magic- the tricks of our nemesis Old school tactics depicted in Genesis I guess if it ain't broke, then why try to fix it? If the song is a hit, you ain't gotta remix it He makes the bait seem sweet but always hides the hook And His top priority is that we deny The Book Tactic One: The Bible- keep you from reading it And if you're reading it, he'll try to keep you from believing it If you're believing it, he'll try to keep you from obedience Or speaking it, he's got temptations for every season kid Satan is the Tempter- he wants to abuse ya After you sin, the Tempter becomes your Accuser And Christians in the public eye- here's an important principle You become more vulnerable the more you're visible I mean come on, if Peter and David can fall Doesn't that need to be a wake up call for us all? These powers are lethal, we're feeble, not equal So Jesus said pray that God would deliver us from evil [Hook] [Verse 3] Man I really need longer than three verses The serpent's chief purpose must be to deceive churches He wants to keep the Christians joy and peace at a minimum He's always standing on one side, ready to swing the pendulum For those who minimize truth, he'll burden them with heresies For those who emphasize truth, he'll turn them into Pharisees One generation, he'll tempt them to be legalists The next generation, he'll tempt them to be hedonists One clear evidence the devil has done his business Is when a church walks in bitterness & unforgiveness For those who pridefully act hard and tough Satan will call your bluff- you'll end up with scars and scuffs So now that we've been convinced, how can we resist? The key to this is found in Ephesians 6 14-18, it mentions seven keys Heavenly necessities, precious remedies It must first be said- that on the cross as Jesus hurt and bled He was really crushing the serpent's head Through faith His perfection's ours, His resurrection power Will keep us from being devoured in the deadly hour Jesus modeled for us how we should do war With the true sword (the Word), You can find it in Luke 4 The last thing to remember: Jesus defeated Satan So let us frequently seek the Savior in secret prayer
