Last night, a friend of mine and I got together to pray. We had both been going through some struggles within ourselves and our respective families, and we decided that we weren’t going to be Satan’s punching bag anymore. As I was finishing some accounting tasks for my church while I waited for her, I had the Hillsong radio playing in the background on Spotify, and I heard this song:
And something in my spirit clicked:
It was time to say “not today” to depression.
It was time to say “not today” to feeling worthless.
It was time to say “not today” to hopelessness.
It was time to say “not today” to fear.
It was time to say “not today” to panic.
It was time to say “not today” to anxiety.
I’ll sing the night into the morning
I’ll sing the fear into Your praise
I’ll sing my soul into Your presence
Whenever I say Your Name
Let the devil know not today
This battle won’t be easy, and I know I will feel weak and fall short at times…
But not today.
