In Building or In Battlefield

Read:  Psalm 127 / Proverbs 24 / 2 Kings 1 /Rom. 16 

Psalm 127:1 Except the LORD build the house, they labor in vain that build it: except the LORD keep the city, the watchman waketh but in vain.
Proverbs 24:27 Prepare thy work without, and make it fit for thyself in the field; and afterwards build thine house.
2 Kings 1:15 The angel of the LORD said unto Elijah, Go down with him: be not afraid of him. And he arose, and went. 
Romans 16:20 The God of peace shall bruise Satan under your feet shortly. The grace of our Lord Jesus... be with you.

Our efforts are a vain mistake,
In building or in battlefield,
Except the Lord shall undertake
So that His glory is revealed. 

Elijah surely knew this well
As enemies were in retreat. 
By grace we'll storm the gates of hell
With Satan bruised beneath our feet.
