Let go and let God

Let go

and let God

deal with that

which afflicts you.


Darkness cannot conquer

His light

which shines with

intense love for you,

as the treasure

and apple of His eye.


The enemy has touched

your life,

but God's hand is stronger,


and His deliverance


is coming


like a freight train


to destroy the enemy's plans.


There is no hope

for the one who contends

with the Almighty.


Every voice will come to silence,

every accusing word will fall 

to the ground

lifeless.


Be strengthened by the power of

His love,

lifted up,

out of the place of despair,

disillusionment,

doubt,

or whatever other word would

describe your inner self right now.


Be redeemed

by the greatest Redeemer of all,

who paid your debt,

cancelled your sin,

and was lifted high to receive your penalty.


Better than good news.


Glorious news.


Wonderful, Counselor,


Mighty God,


Everlasting Father,


Prince of Peace.

  1. I love the line in this poem, "His deliverance is coming like a freight train." God is not passive and He is not helpless against the enemy of our souls. Jesus came to save us from the evil one not just from our own sin. Let us remember God's power to save and Jesus' total victory through His death on the cross.
