Lord of the Air
Viewed Last 24 Hours: 1 time

By Michael P. Johnson
Other Poems by Michael P. Johnson

      Lord of the air

How oft we choose to do some good

Use words, soft sweet and kind

Yet somehow we’re misunderstood

As though we’ve guile in mind

 

Hell’s devils are at work once more

Life’s facts they turn to lies                       Gen.3:4

They’ve opened anger’s evil door

Allowing hate to rise

 

Satan’s power is in the air                       Eph.2:2

Through which his lovers sin

Spreading his lies the world to share

Upon man’s verbal wing

 

Don’t leave with hatred in your heart

Don’t leave a scene in strife

Make enemies friends before you part

If value’s on your life

 

Spirits can twist one’s every word

God’s children to deceive

That even lies though quite absurd

The world may still believe

 

But through The Lamb we’ve been forewarned

God’s sheep are firmly sealed

Salvation’s light has truly dawned

God’s mighty arm revealed

 

Between the mouth and someone’s ear

The devil can abide

Thus Jesus’ warns us loud and clear

The road to hell is wide                          Mt.7:13

 

We must beware of what we say

Of each unworthy sound

For Satan’s out to lead astray

And air, is all around.....

About the Poet
I never wrote a word of poetry in my life. Till the day Jesus took my hand and touched my soul.....I invite your response. However most poems are not about me! Very few are. But the feed-back good, bad or indifferent is always desired. Not meant to offend, but I write about many things in many a guise. Of life, death, lost, found, saved, backsliders, new comers, repenting souls, doubting hearts, heathens, Christians, fire, water, Satan's daughter, wallowing in sin, saved, made sound walking in Light, graceful righteous. Suffering, ecstatic, bored, excited, sad, delighted, Sick, well, lame, able, living, dying, etc. etc. etc. Writing about anything, everything and everyone as the spirit leads. All meant to reveal, waken, revive, encourage, shame, help. Gladden, pick up, exalt, portrait, liberate. Again over 99% of my work is not about me. Although at times I write as though I were or am. Speaking e.g. in the first person. This is quite common even in the bible itself. Prophets speak of themselves, then God speaks, again the prophet, then God......Quite often it's difficult to distinguish whom it is that at any given time is speaking or narrating.
