The enemy studies to set his sly traps
And hides his intentions in enticing wraps,
Trying to sidetrack or spoil or devour.
But he is no match for God's holy power.
God will expose his wiles and deceit.
God is our tower, our strength, our retreat.
There we abide and always return.
There we find wisdom and power to discern.
As we are focused, with eyes on the Lord,
Using the Word, His two-edged sword,
We can avoid the enemy's ruse.
By "living" the Word, his plans we diffuse.
"Ye are of God, little children, and have overcome them: because greater is he that is in you, than he that is in the world."
I John 4:4 KJV
