About SsaulAbi.... Composed by Jieun Park Ⅰ. Prelude to the Spiritual Warfare Ⅱ. The Battle Is Not Mine, But The Lord’s Ⅲ. The Victory Chant SsaulAbi means “fighting men” in pure Korean, and I’m referring myself as God’s anointed warrior in the spiritual warfare that I’ve been fighting the holy war ever since I was born. Devils and wicked forces try to break me down all the days of my life, and I was defeated and fell into a deep depression for many years when I was weary. But, I’m survived by someone’s prayer that surrounds all around me and protects me from all the devil’s schemes and attacks. While I was growing up and having been through these battles, I became stronger and stronger as the amount of time I struggled made me a trained soldier. Now I put on the Full Armor of God as a general getting ready to strike the devils and evil spirits, and I know “the battle is not mine, but the Lord’s” that I’ve got the victory in Jesus!!!! SsaulAbi was first performed for Scores Of Sound @ Cornish College of the Arts on December 5th 2007 by Seattle Chamber Players....
