What Ails You O Sea, That You Fled? 

What Ails You O Sea, That You Fled? 

The Church, as if mocking the demons themselves, ask in the hymns: What ails you O sea, that you fled?  And you Jordan, that you have turned back?  It is as if the Church is saying to the demons “What’s the matter? Your power is gone…and accounts to nothing when you come face to face with Christ!”  When God commands something into being, it happens.  When he enters battle with the demon gods, there is no battle…simply defeat.  God is victorious!
