Song Story: THE MUSIC:
I think the story behind this song is FUNNY. And it's by God's grace that I do, instead of getting all annoyed or fearful about “wasting time”.
This song was completed in less than 24 hours (basic music tracks also).
1. At the church sanctuary, I was praying during the afternoon before choir practice, and the concept came to mind (see final paragraphs for history).
2. That night, I played with loops in my studio program and came up with all the tracks for what is Part 1 of this song. I liked it so much that I sent it to my producer at Studio 2 to give him a laugh... He's gifted with jazz, but this is NOT my usual style. So it's another evidence of the Holy Spirit's Creative inspiration!
3. The next morning, I awoke thinking, “Well, if I'm going to write a song about getting even with Satan, I'd better be extra careful to watch for temptations because he's gonna want to get even back! AND HENCE I re-worded my original ideas to put this BRIDGE in.
-----
Very first things I found when I went to my computer: The internet wouldn't work, a worse link than usual (but God helped of course).
AND - a flash drive FULL of files from my Studio 1 that I was supposed to take to Studio 2 over an hour from my home was not working... still isn't as I write this. But hey... God's work. I'll let Him help me figure it out:)

Song Story: THE LYRICS:
During the previous week, some mistakes I'd made were making me very fearful. I even called some of my prayer partners and confessed, with prayer requests. During my wait to see “what would happen,” I wrote the song (in 2 days) I WILL FEAR NO EVIL. During the writing, I returned to awareness of James 1 & 4, that trusting God really annoys Satan. God graciously brought me through yet another trial in less than a week yet in this small time my studio had already produced that song and put it on the World Wide Web to encourage anyone.
Our fun version, with God's help, of getting even with Satan for 'messing with' God's kids with thoughts of fears and his LIES – read what Jesus said about him in John 8:44!

BRIDGE
Satan really wants to get even back.
..... Problems........ Temptations.
..... Problems........ Temptations.
Just ONE WAY to fight Satan back:
Quote God's Word back!
To Satan, Jesus quoted God's book. And He is God's Son.
Take hope and quote God's Bible back-- OUT LOUD!
James 4:7.
Satan has to flee when you say God's Truth. God says, James 4:8.
Call to God and God fights for you......
WHEN you let God Rule!
4
Sure Life has problems that cause pain and more, But we
rejoice in sorrows with Jesus as our LORD!
5
God promised through James One:
God's IN CONTROL.
We get even with Satan by praising GOD our LORD!
READING
Deuteronomy 32 AND Hebrews 10:30 AND Romans 12:19 --
GOD says "Vengeance is MINE!"
.......... In Matthew 18, Peter asked "Do I forgive my brother 7 times?"
Jesus answered "Not seven times but SEVENTY times seven."
......... AND -- If you're counting to 490 ---- That is NOT forgiveness !
============================================================
God's SUPPORTING WORDS:
2 My brethren, count it all joy when you fall into various trials,
3 knowing that the testing of your faith produces patience.
4 But let patience have its perfect work, that you may be perfect and complete, lacking nothing.
5 If any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask of God,
who gives to all liberally and without reproach,
and it will be given to him.
6 But let him ask in faith, with no doubting, for he who doubts is like a wave of the sea driven and tossed by the wind. 7 For let not that man suppose that he will receive anything from the Lord; 8 he is a double-minded man, unstable in all his ways.
Deuteronomy 32: 35, 43 AND Hebrews 10:30 AND Romans 12:19:
GOD: “Vengeance is MINE, and recompense; Their foot shall slip in due time;
For the day of their calamity is at hand, And the things to come hasten upon them.'”
“Rejoice, O Gentiles, with His people; For He will avenge the blood of His servants,
And render vengeance to His adversaries; He will provide atonement
for His land and His people.”
Psalm 94: 1a - “O LORD God, to whom vengeance belongs—" LINK
Matthew 18: JESUS: Then Peter came to Him and said, “Lord, how often shall my brother sin against me, and I forgive him? Up to seven times?” Jesus said to him, “I do not say to you, up to seven times, but up to 70 times 7.” LINK
