Spiritual Ears and Eyes ~

A heart that is aware,
and to satan is wise . . .
is a heart that maintains
spiritual ears and eyes.

For it’s eyes are open,
to the truth in the Word
interprets the devil’s roar
even before it is heard.

A heart that is alert,
and to satan is shrewd . . .
is a heart that keeps
itself daily renewed.

For it’s a heart that knows,
the darkness it must fight
so it can recognize satan
when disguised as the light.

A heart that has both,
spiritual ears and eyes
is a heart that perceives . . .
satan’s guises and lies!

~~~~~~~~

 2 Corinthians 11:13-15

 

For such are false apostles,
deceitful workers, transforming
themselves into the apostles of Christ.

And no marvel; for Satan himself
is transformed into an angel of light.

Therefore it is no great thing if
his ministers also be transformed
as the ministers of righteousness;
whose end shall be according to their works.”

Safely Moored And Docked ~

Lord, help me not to have,
my faith rattled or rocked
rather keep me in the truth
safely moored and docked.

Let not me be carried,
by the waves of deceit
rather keep me following
in the steps of Your feet.

Lord, help me not to be,
blown by every Gospel wind
rather keep me grounded
to the truth I have within.

Let not me be confused,
by every ingenious lie
rather keep me anchored
in Your Word until I die.

Lord, help me not to have,
my faith rocked or rattled
help me to keep steadfast . . .
so I don’t become baffled!

~~~~~~~~

Ephesians 4:14-15

“That we henceforth be no more children,
tossed to and fro, and carried about
with every wind of doctrine, by the
sleight of men, and cunning craftiness,
whereby they lie in wait to deceive;

But speaking the truth in love,
may grow up into him in all things,
which is the head, even Christ:”

When Satan Deceives ~

When satan whispers,
calmly in your ear
God’s has left you
see, He’s not here.

Don’t you indulge,
in this wily deceit
for God promised
to be your retreat.

When satan wails,
loudly in your ear
See, all your prayers
God does not hear.

Don’t you believe,
in this cunning lie
for God listens to
your every cry.

When satan comes,
with whispers to deceive
wail right back at him . . .
just in whom you believe!

~~~~~~~~~~

1 John 4:4

“Ye are of God, little children,
and have overcome them:
because greater is he that is in you,
than he that is in the world.

Risky Business ~

It’s risky business,
thinking God can be mocked
it’s deceiving thinking
His wrath can be stopped.

It’s foolishness to think,
you won’t reap what you sow
it’s pure folly thinking
you sins, God will never know.

It’s ignorant to believe,
God sin will never judge
it’s hypocrisy
from your ways not to budge.

It’s unwise to keep on living,
conformed to this world
it’s arrogant to think
with God you can even quarrel.

It’s risky business,
thinking God you can mock
and on your sinful living . . .
it is time to take stock!

“Be not deceived;
God is not mocked:
for whatsoever a man soweth
that shall he also reap.”

Spiritual Wickedness ~

Spiritual wickedness,
in high and low places
both in shadow’s dark
and open lit up spaces.

Evilness all around,
scouring the earth
the top of the world
evil’s plotting berth.

Wicked devilish powers,
cruel and ruthless
rulers of destruction
cold and heartless.

Vicious, vile spirits,
enemies of mankind
invisible destroyers
of hearts and minds.

Spiritual wickedness,
satan’s wolf pack . . .
so get on your armor
and be ready to attack!

~~~~~~

Ephesians 6:12-13

“For we wrestle not against
flesh and blood, but against
principalities, against powers,
against the rulers of the darkness
of this world, against spiritual
wickedness in high places.

Wherefore take unto you
the whole armour of God,
that ye may be able to
withstand in the evil day,
and having done all, to stand.”

Good Morning Quote ~02.25.18~

Escaping Satan’s Traps ~

The only way,
satan to escape
is to not get caught
in his sticky tape.

For, he will lure you,
with his tacky lies
so into his snare
you’ll land just like flies.

Once you are caught,
in his gummy muck
you will find from him
it’s hard to get unstuck.

For, he won’t let go,
of his hold on you
for his grip hardens
just like quick drying glue.

The only way,
satan to escape . . .
is in your Bible
to stay in shape!

~~~~

Ephesians 6:11

“Put on the whole armour of God,
that ye may be able to stand
against the wiles of the devil.”

A Reminder ~

Satan is evil,
he’s a deceiver
he is out to get
every believer.

He is a liar,
he is a thief
he only causes
eternal grief.

Satan is devious,
he is ruthless
he wants to render
you for God useless.

He is scheming,
he is cunning
after your soul
he is gunning.

Satan is a slanderer,
he’s a counterfeiter
he wants to make you
in Jesus a quitter.

Satan is evil,
he is an eye blinder
lest you forget . . .
tis why this reminder!

~~~~~~~~

Revelation 12:9

“And the great dragon
was cast out, that old serpent,
called the Devil, and Satan,
which deceiveth the whole world:
he was cast out into the earth,
and his angels were cast out with him.”

Dancing With the Wolves ~

So many today,
dancing with the wolves
so many are following
their slippery hooves.

So many today,
are deceivingly mislead
so many aren’t being
the truth, anymore fed.

So many today,
are living in the darkness
so many aren’t looking
for Christ and His likeness.

So many today,
hearing errant teachings
so many don’t discern
the lies they’re preaching.

So many today,
with wolves are dancing
so many can’t spot . . .
danger at first glancing!

Matthew 7:15

“Beware of false prophets,
which come to you in
sheep’s clothing,
but inwardly they are
ravening wolves.”

The Threshold of Fear ~

Today I felt fear,
slither across my threshold
I knew right away
it wanted to take a foothold.

It pounded on my heart,
thumped upon my soul
it clamored for my mind
so it could take control.

I felt its anxiety,
I sensed its panicking
I could clearly hear
its hissing babbling.

So, I took it by the neck,
and gave it a shake
for I knew it was satan
that old, slimy snake.

Today I felt fear,
slither across my threshold
so I met it with God’s power
and from it, got the foothold!

~~~~~~~~~~

2 Timothy 1:7

“For God hath not given us
the spirit of fear;
but of power, and of love,
and of a sound mind.”

Liars ~

Liars, all liars
wolves in sheep skin
taking the Word of God
putting on it their own spin.

Twisting and slanting,
the Word until it fits
not caring what story
that it flips or knits.

Liars, all liars,
sin to them hasn’t a yoke
shunning the Gospel truth
turning the cross into a joke.

Filling up the pews,
counting all the money
lies on their greedy lips
taste as sweet as honey.

Liars, all liars
fruits that are rotting
stinking to high heaven
liars, who need stopping!

~~~~~~~

Matthew 7:15
King James Version

“Beware of false prophets,
which come to you
in sheep’s clothing,
but inwardly they are
ravening wolves.”
