Tomorrow Is Not Promised

TOMORROW IS NOT PROMISED [INTRO – SPOKEN, LOW, DARK & COMMANDING] Romans 8:13: “For if you live according to the flesh, you will die; but if by the Spirit you put to death the misdeeds of the body, you will live.” [PAUSE – DARK CELLO, DESERT WIND] Ephesians 6:12: “For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms.” [DEEP WAR DRUM BEGINS] Tomorrow is not promised. So I will not wait another day to tear down what stands between me and God. Let every idol fall. Let every chain break. [PAUSE] The battle begins… TODAY. [VERSE 1] The desert wind is calling, And the night is closing in. I hear the Spirit warning, “Do not surrender to your sin.” I’ve carried worthless idols, I’ve bowed to empty kings, But tonight their thrones are falling, I belong to Christ the King! The enemy can whisper, He can tell me I will fall, But the blood of Christ has bought me, And Jesus owns it all. So let the darkness gather, Let temptation come my way, I have chosen who I’m fighting for, And I choose my God today! [PRE-CHORUS] What if tonight is all I have? What if I never see the dawn? Then I will spend my final breath Standing where I belong! [CHORUS] TOMORROW IS NOT PROMISED! SO THE BATTLE STARTS TODAY! Every idol, every stronghold, In the name of Jesus, BREAK! I will put my flesh beneath me, I will tear its throne apart! There will be no room for darkness On the battlefield of my heart! TOMORROW IS NOT PROMISED! I WILL NOT LIVE ANOTHER DAY With one foot walking toward my Savior And the other turned away! [VERSE 2] I chased the voice of pleasure, I followed my own way, I traded holy moments For things that fade away. But mercy came to find me, And grace has called my name, Now the Flesh I used to be Is going down in Jesus’ name! Let temptation draw its weapon, Let the enemy attack, I have put my hand upon the plow, And I am not looking back! Every chain that tried to hold me, Every lie that made me crawl, By the power of Jesus Christ, Tonight I watch them fall! [PRE-CHORUS] My flesh cries out, “Tomorrow!” But my spirit answers, “NO!” There may never be another dawn, So TODAY I choose to go! [CHORUS] TOMORROW IS NOT PROMISED! SO THE BATTLE STARTS TODAY! Every idol, every stronghold, In the name of Jesus, BREAK! I will put my flesh beneath me, I will tear its throne apart! There will be no room for darkness On the battlefield of my heart! TOMORROW IS NOT PROMISED! I WILL NOT LIVE ANOTHER DAY With one foot walking toward my Savior And the other turned away! [BRIDGE – QUIET, DARK, BUILDING] Oh Lord… Search every hidden corner. Oh Lord… Expose what hides in me. Oh Lord… Bring every secret stronghold Down beneath Your victory. [BUILD] Kill what keeps me from You! Break what keeps me bound! Every throne that I have built, Lord, tear it to the ground! Let the old man die behind me! Let Your Spirit make me new! I have fought for this world long enough, NOW I’M FIGHTING TO FOLLOW YOU! [WAR DRUMS ENTER] No more compromise! No more turning back! No more feeding what destroys me! No more giving darkness ground! [BREAKDOWN – DEEP & COMMANDING] FLESH… YOU WILL NOT RULE ME. FEAR… YOU WILL NOT MOVE ME. SIN… YOU WILL NOT OWN ME. I HAVE BEEN BOUGHT BY THE BLOOD OF JESUS CHRIST! [INSTRUMENTAL WAR BUILD – MIDDLE EASTERN VIOLIN, CELLO & MASSIVE DRUMS] [FINAL CHORUS – MASSIVE] TOMORROW IS NOT PROMISED! SO I’M TAKING BACK TODAY! Every idol, every stronghold, IN THE NAME OF JESUS, BREAK! I will crucify my desires, I will follow where He leads! Let my flesh become surrender! LET HIS SPIRIT LIVE THROUGH ME! TOMORROW IS NOT PROMISED! SO I WILL STAND AND I WILL FIGHT! Not against flesh and blood, But against the rulers of the night! Let the darkness hear my answer! Let the enemy know my name! I belong to Jesus Christ, AND I WILL NEVER BE THE SAME! [OUTRO – MUSIC FALLS AWAY] If morning never finds me, Let me be found in You. If this becomes my final breath, Let my final words be true… [WHISPER] Tomorrow is not promised. [DEEP, COMMANDING] So I choose Jesus… TODAY.
