Resist

Resist

It's an awful thing to arise
and believe the devil's lies;
he'll tell you the sky is gray
even on a sunny day;
he'll convince you to stay in bed
planting wrong thoughts in your head!

Then he'll remind you of your sins
before your daily chores begin.
before you know you'll be distressed
forgetting how much you've been blessed.
The bible tells us to resist
the devil's lies as he persists
to rob your inner peace and joy,
coming to kill, steal and destroy!

Tell the devil he must flee
by Christ the Lord's authority.
Always start the day off right,
for this is pleasing in God's sight!
Then give the Lord adoration 
while thanking Him for your salvation!

About the Poet
Christian since 1973, widowed in 2007, but by the divine appt. of God, I married a wonderful, godly widower in Oct. 2010. Three grown, married sons and eight grandchildren. My first love is Jesus who inspires my pen, for apart from Him I can do nothing! I desire to honor the Lord and edify readers thru poetry He inspires.
