Me:
Before my Commander, I kneel down and pray
What are the orders you have for me today?
I’ve put on my armor, and have my sword and shield
Holy Spirit lead the way, to the battlefield

Lord:
Before you go to battle, make sure you hear from Me
You must follow orders to secure the victory
I gave you mighty weapons to use at My command
Now go forth in faith to recover back your land

I’ve sent angel armies to fight alongside you
As you listen closely, I’ll tell you what to do
Declare My Word boldly into the atmosphere
Your faith releases power to the angels gathered near

Know that I go with you and will lead the way
You’ll reflect My glory that will be on full display
Nations will awake from their night time of despair
To the brightness of this rising, nothing can compare

Isaiah 60:1–3 – “Arise, shine, for your light has come, and the glory of the LORD rises upon you.
2 See, darkness covers the earth and thick darkness is over the peoples, but the LORD rises upon you and his glory appears over you. 3 Nations will come to your light, and kings to the brightness of your dawn.”

Ephesians 6:10–20
Joshua 5:13-15

The same sun that can melt butter on a hot sidewalk can also harden clay to a brick. It all depends on what the sun (Son) is shining upon. Those whose hearts are tender will melt under His glory, but those whose hearts are made of clay will only be hardened by that same sun (Son).
No soldier goes into the battlefield without his armor on. If we are wounded, we cannot effectively fight. God provides the armor for us in Ephesians 6. Armor reflects light much more than regular clothes do. If we are following the Lord into battle, our armor could reflect His glory and blind the enemy. However, it is not only our armor that will reflect God’s glory but also our hearts. Is the light of His glory rising in your heart? If it is, nations will come to this light and kings to the brightness of our dawn.
