Satan Is A Deceiver... But Is Defea
Viewed Last 24 Hours: 1 time

Satan Is A Deceiver..
But Is Defeated!
 
Satan tries to deceive us
any way he can.
Often we are unaware of his
 next "trick" or plan.
 
He tries to find our "weak point"...
 where we're not strong.
And tempts us with things in life
 that do not belong.
 
This "weak point" is where
many people  fail.
As the "winds" of sin and
defeat do prevail.
 
Lust, drugs, alcohol... whatever this
"weak point" might be.
Has "blinded" so many...
 they can no longer "see."
 
May this be a warning both
to me and to you.
We need the blood of Christ to
 daily cleanse us too.
 
The blood of Christ can 
give us the victory we need.
His word is what we must daily
 listen to and read.
 
Every deception the enemy has put
 upon you can be destroyed.
When an appetite in your soul
 for Godliness is employed.
 
Only through Jesus... God's precious son... 
 can you overcome!
Satan is defeated... and the battle's
already been won!

About the Poet
I and my wife have 4 grown children and currently live in the Pacific Northwest. I've spent much of my life doing volunteer work in the food distribution for the needy among local churches. Many of the poems I've written are a reflection of times of adversity as a reminder of God's love and faithfulness. I've found many opportunities to share my poems with those who are hurting and discouraged. I'm thankful for the reports of many of the poems touching people's lives. I hope that the poems included on Wordchimes will touch and bless your life too!
