The Word Within

When evil tries to enter in,
We must guard to keep it out.
When we see its sneaky guile
We should pull out every “sprout”!

We must not let it seed doubt
Or cause anxiety to grow.
We don’t need to heed that voice
Or let it push us to and fro.

When we know the Word within
Evil cannot find a door.
As it is filtered through the Word
It is exposed and is no more!

“For the Word that God speaks is alive and full of power (making it active, operative, energizing, and effective); it is sharper than any two-edged sword, penetrating to the dividing line of the breath of life (soul) and (the immortal) spirit and of joints and marrow (of the deepest parts of our nature), exposing and sifting and analyzing and judging the very thoughts and intents of the heart.”
Hebrews 4:12 Amplified Bible
