🎵Prompt Response and a New Song by My Brother

Which book’s world would be the absolute worst to live in?

As October comes to an end and November begins, we move from autumn beauty to the festive season of lights and decorations. My plans for posts in November include recipes for home, life, and kitchen. I figured the latest release by my brother would be the perfect crossover event.

So first, about prompt 2923 by Day One, they might be thinking of a book with a fictionally-built world that covers the entire story. But I’m thinking of a non-fiction book with multiple real worlds given for both warning and hope. The warning is for the absolute worst world to live in: the “second death” of an eternity without God or any aspects of His character. Also known as Hell, it would be a world with no hope, no kindness, no peace, no joy, no beauty, and—the very worst part—NO LOVE. Yikes! Who could actually want to spend eternity there if they really thought about it?

But, there is someone who is headed that way and doesn’t want to be alone. That someone is called Hasatan or “the adversary” and he hates anyone who resembles his enemy Yahveh Almighty. Since we are made in God’s image, that includes us whether we are serving God or not. And this leads to my first recipe: the ingredients to fight the adversary and know you can win because of Who is truly fighting that battle for you are loudly proclaimed with a great southern rock sound in my brother’s latest release… Won’t Be Shaken. Have a listen:

I got to hear it a month ago, but couldn’t say anything. And it’s one of those that just keeps working on your spirit. I wrestled with the idea of having to speak to the adversary (though I’ve had to at times) because of where the Bible says not to rejoice that we have power over the enemy. But I woke up one morning realizing that this song is more about realizing where your feet are planted (on The Rock) to remind you that you have Christ’s power to not be shaken. Here are a few verses this song brings to mind:

“[8] Be sober-minded and alert. Your adversary the devil prowls around like a roaring lion, seeking someone to devour. [9] Resist him, standing firm in your faith and in the knowledge that your brothers throughout the world are undergoing the same kinds of suffering.”

— 1 Peter 5:8-9 BSB

And this is the one I referred to as I wrestled with accepting the power declared in this song:

[17] The seventy-two returned with joy and said, “Lord, even the demons submit to us in Your name.”
[19] “Behold, I have given you authority to tread on snakes and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy. Nothing will harm you. [20] Nevertheless, do not rejoice that the spirits submit to you, but rejoice that your names are written in heaven.”

— Luke 10:17, 19-20 BSB

Now, look at verse 18 (that I purposely left out above) as it brings in the context of verse 19:

“[18] So He told them, “I saw Satan fall like lightning from heaven. [19] Behold, I have given you authority to tread on snakes and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy. Nothing will harm you. ”

— Luke 10:18-19 BSB

And Shayne put that into the song! We simply must keep the cart behind the horse and remember Who threw the adversary down, and Who’s Holy Blood paid for the victory and authority we now share. Paul reminds the believers at Ephesus this way:

“[10] Finally, be strong in the Lord and in His mighty power. [11] Put on the full armor of God, so that you can make your stand against the devil’s schemes. ”

— Ephesians 6:10-11 BSB

And sometimes we do have to speak to an adversary and proclaim the authority and victory we have in The Lord. Before he was king, the young shepherd David stood before a giant adversary and proclaimed:

“[47] And all those assembled here will know that it is not by sword or spear that the Lord saves; for the battle is the Lord’s, and He will give all of you into our hands.”

— 1 Samuel 17:47 BSB

So any song that can pull in this much of a Scriptural foundation is a winner in my book. This song is a winning recipe of strength mixed with hope for those who have chosen to give their hearts to Messiah YahShua HaMashiach (Jesus The Christ) and let Him put their feet on The Rock. This IS the recipe you’ll need to spend eternity with The One who loves you so much that He provided a way out and beyond in The Blood shed on the cross at Calvary. Won’t you join me (and Shayne) on that Rock today?
