Wisdom for War


[for "Mighty Counselor Who Rules With Wisdom"]

“Knowledge is power”, the world always says
Yet wisdom from God is the one that can bless
Not just understanding, perception, or smarts
But deep revelation from Father God’s heart

Counsel with wisdom, the Lord has bestowed
His Spirit upon you, in your name foretold
That you will arise as mighty adviser
To kings and great men for you are the wiser

Wise in dominion, in judgment and power
This is the day and this is the hour
Called up to come and become who you are
A soldier, a warrior, a ruler at war

Weapons of knowledge, of counsel and wisdom
Weapons to use in advancing God’s kingdom
Are all at your beck and call at the Throne
The Spirit reveals it all to His own

From fearing the Lord with reverent fear
Understanding will grow as you humbly draw near
For it’s not by your strength that all these comes to pass
But by Master’s own words, which are true and will last

So, follow your Leader, your Savior, your Friend
For when you do so you’ll be leaving a trend
Of leaders pursuing their God without end
Of rulers who reign with His powerful hand

Of counselors walking in wisdom and love
Of judges declaring, “Thy Kingdom come!”
For you are of such and you’ve been set apart
Rise up, Mighty Counselor! It’s now time to start
