Satan Goes As a Roaring Lion

Satan goes about as a “roaring lion.” 
 “Seeking whom he may devour.”
Be careful!  He could “ensnare” you this very hour!

He knows our weaknesses.  
Our “vulnerable points” within…
This is where so many of our 
trials and heartaches begin!

He is sure up to the challenge.  He’s up to the task!
“How could this happen to me” 
 You may wonder and ask…

He tempts you at your weakest point,
 and then tries to pull you down…
He attempts to smash your life…  
Right into the ground!

He tries to create havoc, confusion, and much despair…
Trying to get you all alone…  
And catching you “unaware…”

The only one who can overcome 
Satan and his evil force…
Is the power of Jesus Christ.  
He must daily be your source!

He alone can bring the victory! 
 Satan is already defeated!
Christ can make you whole again!  
With him, you’re COMPLETED!

His power, love, and wondrous grace
 is more than sufficient!
He’ll take away your every sin!  
His blood is efficient!

Allow Christ to bring the victory and make you whole today!
He will stop anything that Satan may “throw your way!"

This “lion” will shut his mouth at the 
mention of Jesus’ name!
With HIM on board.  Things will never be the same!
