Seek His face, let faith take hold.
In humble prayer, we find our might,
Armed in the Spirit, prepared to fight.

With hearts lifted in worship, His love our accord.

In the secret place, our vows are gorged.
Each prayer a step on battlegrounds,

Calling us to make the choice.
To stand in faith, to live in peace,
In every kneeling, fears cease.

      Track 2: “Guardians of the Gate”

      Description:

      “Guardians of the Gate” is a compelling and resonant track that calls upon men to rise as protectors and spiritual leaders, safeguarding their families and communities with vigilance and prayer. This song draws from the biblical concept of watchmen, who were tasked with watching over the city walls, alert to any approaching dangers.

      Musically, the song combines strong, protective beats with layers of harmonious vocals, evoking the steadfastness and resilience required of those who guard. The instrumentation is both robust and inspiring, creating a sound that is as commanding as it is uplifting.

      Lyrically, the song interweaves calls for vigilance with prayers for divine strength and wisdom. It emphasizes the role of men as both protectors and intercessors, who stand in the gap for their loved ones and fight against spiritual encroachments in prayer. The chorus is a powerful blend of commitment and worship, recognizing Jesus as our ultimate fortress and guide, and affirming the role of the Holy Spirit in empowering guardians in their watch.

      “Guardians of the Gate” not only inspires but also challenges listeners to take up the mantle of spiritual guardianship. It is a reminder that vigilance is a form of worship and that our battles are won not by might, but by the power of God within us.

      Key Themes:

      • Spiritual guardianship and vigilance
      • The role of men as protectors and leaders
      • The power of intercessory prayer
      • Empowerment through Jesus and the Holy Spirit

      This track is particularly impactful for those who feel called to a role of protection—whether as fathers, husbands, community leaders, or spiritual overseers. It encourages a proactive stance in spiritual warfare and promotes a deep sense of responsibility towards the safety and spiritual well-being of others.

      Prayer: Lord God, You are our ultimate Guardian, and from You comes every good and perfect gift of protection. Equip us, Your servants, to act as guardians of the gate in our families, churches, and communities.

              Spirit of Power - Coming Soon

              by Darren Winfield

              Description:

              “Spirit of Power” is an empowering anthem that highlights the strength and courage we receive from the Holy Spirit. Inspired by 2 Timothy 1:7, which speaks of the Spirit of power, love, and self-discipline given to us by God, this song encourages believers to live boldly and victoriously.

              The first verse, “In my weakness, You are strong; By Your Spirit, I press on,” sets a tone of reliance on God’s strength in times of weakness. The chorus, “Spirit of power, Spirit of might; Fill me with courage, shine Your light,” serves as a declaration of the empowerment we receive from the Holy Spirit.

              The second verse, “When the darkness closes in; By Your Spirit, I will win,” speaks to the challenges of spiritual warfare and the victory found in God’s power. This verse draws from 1 John 4:4, which assures us that the One in us is greater than the one in the world.

              The bridge, “Not by my power, not by my might; But by Your Spirit, day and night,” echoes the words of Zechariah 4:6, emphasizing that our strength comes from the Holy Spirit. “Spirit of Power” is a song that encourages believers to rely on God’s power and live boldly for His kingdom, making it a powerful anthem for personal and corporate worship.

              Devotion:

              2 Timothy 1:7 reminds us that God has given us a spirit of power, love, and self-discipline. “Spirit of Power” celebrates the strength and courage we receive from the Holy Spirit.

              Reflect on the power of the Holy Spirit in your life. Acts 1:8 promises that we will receive power when the Holy Spirit comes upon us, enabling us to be witnesses for Christ. Consider how the Holy Spirit empowers you to live boldly for God’s kingdom.

              Consider the role of love and self-discipline. Galatians 5:22-23 lists the fruit of the Spirit, including love, joy, peace, forbearance, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control. Reflect on how these qualities are evident in your life and seek to cultivate them further.

              Trust in God’s strength in times of weakness. 2 Corinthians 12:9 reminds us that God’s grace is sufficient, and His power is made perfect in weakness. When you feel weak or inadequate, rely on the Holy Spirit’s strength to carry you through.

              Recognize the importance of courage and boldness. Joshua 1:9 encourages us to be strong and courageous, trusting that God is with us wherever we go. Step out in faith, knowing that the Holy Spirit equips you for every challenge.

              Prayer:

              Holy Spirit, fill me with Your power, love, and self-discipline. Strengthen me in times of weakness and help me to live boldly for Your kingdom. Cultivate the fruit of the Spirit in my life and guide me in Your truth. Amen.

              Spirit of God, dwell in me

              Bridge:

              Not by my power, not by my might

              I am transformed, I am renewed
              By Your power, in all I do

              Spirit of power, Spirit of might
              Fill me with courage, shine Your light
