But I will say: the King has returned to the top of the throne.”

Prayer before a fight

“Heavenly Father I come to you in the mighty name of Jesus both men strapped tonight give both men know how to give their best performances and I both men come out the ring safely as I walk through the valley of the shadow of death I shall fear no evil and those who in weapons against me shall prosper. Amen.”
