When they set forth to harm you
Or wish to take revenge,
God will turn it around for the good
Whilst you’re enclosed in His hedge.
When they set forth to harm God’s own
Without any cause at all,
There will come a time if they still persist
That they’ll encounter a great fall.
Because envy is a spider’s web;
It encapsulates the soul,
And traps it in its misery
That becomes a firm stronghold.
God cannot be mocked
And when the apple of His eye,
Is tampered with or tormented too
His wrath can’t be denied.
‘Vengeance is Mine’ says the Lord
As we leave it in His hands,
And although we’re tempted to take control
He works in ways we don’t understand.
When they set forth to harm you
They will fall in their own trap,
Because when wicked intentions brew in the heart
They come and fall in their own lap.
When they set forth to harm you
Just know that they’re doing the will,
Of the wicked and rebellious one
So his plan will be fulfilled.
When they set forth to harm you
You’ll have the support of those around,
Who will intercede and pray for you
So Satan’s tactics will be bound.
It is never in God’s heart
To plan evil things for us,
But instead to give us a future and a hope
When in Him we sincerely trust.
But the devil comes to kill and destroy
And to steal whatever he can,
Because he hates us with a perfect hatred
In ways we’ll never understand.
But God’s love does prevail
And when they set forth to harm us,
His loyalty and sincerity
Keep us covered as we trust.
When they set forth to harm you
There’s no forgiveness in their heart,
But only the desire to ruin your reputation
And to tear your life apart.
They hated Christ without a cause;
He was the perfect one on earth,
But their jealousy and evil intents
Could not see His precious worth.
When they set forth to harm you
Just know that God is in control,
And that the plans of your enemies will be defeated
As God afflicts their mind and soul.
