        EPHESIANS 6v10-17

 

The devil points his finger          Col. 1v22
And accusations flow.                John 5v24.
The blemishes of past life           Rom. 8v1
Seemed all too much on show.         Psalm 139v23.
But then I was reminded              Col.2v14.
Of what the Lord had done,           Rom.6v4.
So I pointed back the finger
As I thought of Gods own Son.        2 Cor.5v21.

 

The devil stirred up memories        2 Cor.5v17.
Of things done in my past.           Rom.6v4.
He said I was not worthy,            Rom.5v8.
He said my faith won't last.         Heb.11v1.
But then I was reminded              Heb.8v12.
Of what the Lord had said,           Isaiah 1v18.
And I shouted in the devils face     Isaiah 43v1.
The things that I had read.          2 Tim.3v16.

 

The devil spoke in whispers,         John 8v44
Of people close and dear.            Luke 6v37.
And I started to believe him,
And my heart began to fear.          Rom.8v15.
But then I was reminded,             Isaiah 40v28-31.
He's the father of all lies,         2 Sam.22v31.
And I faced his accusations          James 4v7.
For his whispers I despise.

 

The devil like a lion                1.Pet.5v8
Roars and prowls about the land.
He's looking to devour us,           1 Cor.10v13
To disrupt our lives and plans.      Rom.12v21.
But he cannot shake our foothold,    2 Tim.2v19.
For the word of God is true.         Psalm 18v2.
He cannot pass our shield of faith   Psalm 91v4.
Or defeat our sword of truth.        Heb.4v12
