ready for the battle

Draw back your bowstring.
Take aim to let your arrows fly.
Abiding in me your arrow finds its mark.

In my strength the battle is won.
Draw back. Come into the safety I offer.
I am your shelter.

My warriors stand!
They stand together.
Each division uses the gifts they’ve received.

Stand ready for battle.
Move forth upon my word.
Do not act upon what you see.

Listen carefully for I will direct you.
I will guide your every move.
Wait upon me else you will not succeed.

Obedience is reward. It is better than the sacrifice of your time.
Stand resolute with me.
Stand within my shadow.
