When You're Under Attack: Pray, Stand and Believe

When you stand for Christ, you become a target for the fiery arrows of the enemy. Be encouraged. For you are more than a conqueror. Whether the battle has brought you physical ailments, financial woes or relationship problems-don't give up. Pray and stand on His Word. Stand because God will see you through...


This is a song called Stand by Donnie McClurkin
. In this version, he is accompanied by BeBe and CeCe Winans. Oprah is the host of this program created to bring healing to the tragic events of September 11, 2001.



Some scriptures for your day:

Romans 8:36-39 (New International Version)
36As it is written:
"For your sake we face death all day long;
we are considered as sheep to be slaughtered."[a] 37No, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him who loved us. 38For I am convinced that neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons,[b] neither the present nor the future, nor any powers, 39neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord.


Ephesians 6:15-17 (New International Version)

15and with your feet fitted with the readiness that comes from the gospel of peace. 16In addition to all this, take up the shield of faith, with which you can extinguish all the flaming arrows of the evil one. 17Take the helmet of salvation and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God.

Stand by Donnie McClurkin lyrics
What do you do
When you've done all you can
And it seems like it's never enough?
And what do you say when your friends turn away
And you're all alone?

Tell me, what do you give
When you're given your all and
Seems like you can't make it through?

Well, you just STAND
When there's nothing left to do
You just STAND
Watch the LORD see you through
Yes, after you've done all you can
You just STAND

Tell me, how do you handle
The guilt of your past?
Tell me, how do you deal with the shame?
And how can you smile while your heart has been
broken and filled with pain?
Tell me, what do give when you've given all
Seems like you can't make it through?
You just STAND
When there's nothing left to do
You just STAND
Watch the LORD see you through
Yes, after you've done all you can
You just STAND

You just STAND and
Be not entangled in that bondage again
You just STAND and endure
GOD has a purpose, yes, GOD HAS A PLAN
Hold on, just be strong - GOD will step in
You just STAND!
