Encouragement

---

The Devil is a clever chap
who justifies your strongest doubt.
Suggestions slyly seep like sap,
into your thoughts to set sin's trap,
convincing you there's no way out.

Yet God provides an iron clad track
Christ leads along a narrow path.
His Word repels each aimed attack.
Repentance, faith will draw you back,
regardless of sin's aftermath.

As Satan sets each fiendish snare,
in hopes to lull and lure you in,
when life serves more than you can bear,
should you succumb and slip in there,
remember, Jesus conquered sin.

Stand up! Or you'll have no defense
against each lie which will compound.
For God gave you in recompense
His Son, the Truth, at great expense.
By love and faith you have been bound.

Stand up! Be counted in the fold.
Reject the Devil's wicked schemes.
Though trials aplenty mock and scold,
your tendered faith is Heaven's gold,
for nothing here is as it seems.
