That's a lie from the bottom bed, and yet the devil never tells the lie that he ain't swallow how come you I lose his name

You switched the places with the God who was came and bottled the shame that you carry berry body

He raised you gotta be crazy cuz you don't believe him

Spiritual warfare is very real in our lives and the battle for our morning devotions is a never ending struggle for many of us

One that we often lose. I know I lose

I kind of just you know, I just had work, you know

I just woke up kind of when I wanted to wake up because I was self-employed, you know

Man, do I make time for God or do I try to fit God into the time that I feel like I already don't have

Um, and so when I wake up it's it's it's a daily decision and I think one of my mistakes is I know this personally
