Satan's Final Defeat

   Satan's Final Defeat

Our Shepherd’s often not to find

By those who run ahead

Without His rod they’ll wander blind

And end by walking dead

 

Best walk with Jesus hand in hand

Receive God’s Light inside

The Way to life we’ll understand

When He alone is guide

 

God’s Lamb will come will show The Way

Will keep us safe and sound

He’ll keep the prowling foe at bay

He’ll keep us Heaven bound

 

Though beasts are never far afield

Though demons never sleep

The Shepherd’s hand just like a shield

Brings safety to His sheep

 

On these, the devil has no chain

No foe can keep them bound

Through Jesus’ blood they’re born again

To graze The Holy Ground

 

It sounds far fetched to those yet lost

Without God’s Lamb & Son

But they who dare, counting no cost

Life’s war is truly won

 

God’s sheep enrobed in living Light

Who graze at Jesus’ feet

Will lift their heads will stand and fight

At Satan’s last defeat

 

In shining armour, golden crown

They’ll come from far and wide

Displayed in glory’s promised gown

They’ll live at Jesus’ side.....

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.
