Stand Fast Against the Devil's Schemes

There's an arch enemy in our midst who prowl's about like a roaring lion seeking whoever he can catch out from the beginning he's always been lying This is our battle day and night fighting this enemy we need God's aid for the Lord defeated him on the cross there His sacrifice overcame by what Jesus paid The devil knows our every weakness exactly where he can find us out he showed this in the garden with Eve so beware of Satan he'll make you doubt Satan always thinks to attack you for because you're valuable to God so he hates God likewise His children combat him by the power of God's sword Stand fast against the devil's schemes speak out the divine word supreme it's your weapon to fight him off God's got you swimming in His stream

Satan still gains the upper hand while we are unable to stand firm. We are still driven to truth and understanding by a devout belief in God. It is a real privilege to have the opportunity to read your poem today. Blessings and best regards
