As I stood and worshipped

All I could feel was peace

Peace that surpassed all understanding

Peace that overwhelmed my being

As I lifted my hands that night

I knew God was moving

Because every night

I was either wrestling

Or fighting for my peace

Sometimes even sweating

In my sleep

As fear tried taking over me

As I tossed and turned

Waking up

As I constantly felt the beating

I was chocked up

In my spirit

Like somebody

Was literally

Trying to kill me

Even as I whispered

The name of Jesus

I knew it was satan

As this feeling

Was stronger

Than ever

As it happened to me

Spiritually

So I talked to my camp councilor

Mentor

And she said we needed to pray

As she told me

She had that same feeling

Years ago

But she was healed

In Jesus name

But I looked at her

Like are you sure

Because on the inside

I really wanted to steer

My flesh fought so hard

But thank God

We prayed

Even though I felt the fear

So I sat there

Without a word

As I felt the same

Heavy feeling

That weighed me down

Each day

I knew that I was holding back

Every part of my being

As I was fighting to be free

As my flesh wanted

It's on way

I knew I've felt this feeling before

And I knew satans been trying to take ahold of me

As he didn't want me to see

That I really am strong in the Lord

But It was through

The prayer warriors

That opened my eyes to see

That the chocking feeling

That I was getting at night

Was the devil

Trying to steal my voice

From me

But it was my decision

My choice

It was all up to me

I couldve

walked away

Listened

Fought

Or simply obeyed

After the prayer

And encouraging words

I knew God was telling me

That there's a calling on my life

But I have to fight

I have to Pray

So that through the name of Jesus

I can gain the victory always

As He showed me

The sword of the spirit,

His word

Is in my hand

All I needed to do

Was speak

Speak aloud

Speak in tongues

Speak and pray

Because that person

Or even myself

May need a touch from the Son

As I realized I am a threat to the enemy

And the devil didn't want me to have Epiphany

So I had to speak the truth

And not listen

To the lies of the enemy

And go do what He

Was calling me to do

Even though I was afraid

After hearing those ladies

I knew it was time

To bind spirits

And pray

Because this battle was real

And I started to see

That the devil was trying

To steal my peace

Everyday

So I prayed

I fought

As the days went by

The battle was real

Especially before

That night

But God moved alright

as I felt God pour down

His glory

Its like every part of my being

Was being held by Jesus

As I lifted up my hands

It's like I didn't have to fight

As if God was there

Right by my side

And He was shinning down

His light

As I felt His anointing

The same way I did

As a camper

Eight years ago

During commitment night

When I had no words to speak

As the Holy Spirit

Overwhelmed me

With His might

As I cried

Not knowing then

But seeing now

That the Holy Spirit was present

And that nobody

Was going to stop what He was doing

As He was about to ignite

It's as if I felt

His footsteps of peace

As I stood there

So still

I knew that I was supposed to be there

And that this

was part of His will

As I felt His anointing

So genuine

So light

His touch

His protection

His shield

As I felt the shaking

In my body

From the top

Of my head

To the tips of my toes

I felt like I wanted to fall

As I could hardly move

I just wanted to stand

But then before I knew it

It was time for the altar call

So I followed three of my girls

Up to the front

And prayed that God would do it all

As they wanted to recommit their lives

To Jesus

And answer His call

So we stood in a circle

I prayed aloud

As we began to cry out

As the tears streamed down our faces

As we prayed together

I saw God move

As His glory shinned down

I've never cried

Hugged people like that

Or even prayed that prayer aloud

As His presence astound

Astounded me

As I felt His power

Move in that room

All around

As we hugged

Cried and prayed

I knew God was having a party

As so many lost

Were found

It amazes me to see

That over 100 kids

Were saved on that Wednesday

As God moved

And His glory was loosed

As I felt a glimpse of Heaven

As He gathered

Blacks

Whites

Hispanics

Asians

People of all different races

To simply pursue

A God

So worthy

Holy to be praised

Who knit us together

Like paper and glue

For such a time as this

So that we could be changed

Be convicted

Or just touched

Who would've ever knew

That God could touch

A whole room

Of boys and girls

Broken

Yearning for more

People who are somewhat

Like me and you

Who would've ever knew
