The Enemy - Being Honest with self

Fighting with a faceless foe

That is the enemy don't ya know

The bible tells us no weapon formed

Against us shall prosper

And although many of us already know

We are still dealing with that faceless foe

Are we armed with the word of the Lord..

Lifting our shield of faith ..

And raising our sword ..

Which is the word of the Lord

Standing with our feet shod in His peace

Being held up with the belt of truth ..

Our head covered with our salvation in tack

When under the enemy's attack

Or do we let self-righteousness get in the way

It is supposed to be a with the breastplate of protection

Not being used as a weapon of rejection

Do we have his angels ..with us on board

When the enemy sends an attack

Then why do we feel .. we have to lash back

Who do you think is causing this attack ..

We as Christians already know the answers to that

But we still fall under those ... sneaky attacks

If we have no weapon formed against us
That will prosper..

Why do we feel the need to defend

Or encourage that enemy

To be our friend

Or pick up a weapon to use

Which causes us to abuse

Making us no better than them

The bible is very clear

When it says "We All Sin"

Our words they cut like a knife..

Causing.. bitterness, envy and strife

Today
I am listening

To that small voice from within

And
Learning how
Not to let

That enemy win

Patience is a virtue

That is not easy to have

Until you learn how

To use self-control

Over your emotions

That can be so easy

To run out of control

Emotions .. is where

The enemy loves .. to hide

Because it causes .. us to lay

Our mind aside

Then we become an easy prey

For that faceless foe to have his way

Over-comers is what we are

Although we may carry

More than one .. battle scar

When you know who your

Enemy's are

Deception is a wicked thing

She wants to be a queen

Lying is her best friend

We need to never

Allow ourselves to give in to them

When we listen .. instead of speak

The enemy will be the one

To become weak

Today
The Victory is mine

As I read in the book

God's Heart Your Destiny

Heart number 9

Anger will not win

I am learning how to listen

For him .. so he doesn't sneak in
