My Letter to Satan


Away, away, away with Thee,
O Devil, thou worker of iniquity!
You, who desires my soul for hell.
My Saviour always protects me well.

To those who hear what God says.
You try to work in devious ways
So that you can take the seeds away.
The ones that God has sown to stay

Deep within the heart of new believers.
When trouble comes you joyfully know.
You choke the Word so it cannot grow.
And some give up the fight with you.

Flee from me, I have power given to me.
I command you to depart, Christ set me free.
Christ’s blood shed on Calvary is my power.
I can command you to depart this very hour.

I am Christ's, bought with great power.
You will never choke my faith and devour.
The roots that run deep within my heart.
For I will never lose my faith and depart.

I know you are deceitful and untruthful.
What you want is our children youthful.
But with God’s guidance we‘ll protect
And Christ will watch and a wall erect.

The Good Book


Set forth in yonder precious book,
Its cover worn, its pages turned.
Ensconced on the shelf in reverence
Is written advice to suffice a man
‘Til his way he sees clear to heaven.

It tells of selfish pride and lust,
And sins that grow like leaven.
It warns of pitfalls ahead of you,
Each prayer of protection is given,
Alas the book is useless if unopened!

It can sit on that shelf dusted bare.
God’s word is to you a free repast,
Set out for all to digest and grow.
Reach out and open its pages wise
And learn God’s plan of Salvation.

Amen

Who Took Over Our Christmas?


“Peace on earth, Good Will to Men” the music plays.
While the Christian sees the crowds and prays.
Shopping and buying seems to be the big pastime.
And patience is forgotten as people stand in line.

Where is Our Christ in all this buying rush?
People want to buy and to be able to do so they push.
Manners are forgotten along with Our God.
Christ’s birth is celebrating our love of this season.

We as a Country have strayed far from the way;
Founded on Godly principles many do not even pray.
Santa takes pride of place in each and every store
And a small box at the side of the door is for the poor.

Looking back to the days when our parents were young.
One gift was fine and in the evening Carols were sung.
Now it is the computer, Ipod, Chat Lines, and Phones.
Our family is fractured and we fear for our homes.

We need to grab on to the new Conspiracy plan.
Refuse to submit to Satan, for we know that we can.
Remember, it is God who is in charge of our plans.
And we can place pride of place back in His hands.

Christmas Rush


Rushing and pushing from home to work,
But there is one thing you must not shirk
Stopping to take time out of your busy day
To draw close to God and take time to pray.

Forget all the things that need to be done.
And worship, lifting praise to God’s Son.
Our Christian world has become a race in time.
Sometimes as Christians we need a STOP sign.

Our priorities become jumbled, we need to decide
If we’re too busy for Christ we’ll surely backslide.
The Spirit will call you to take time to pray,
But if you keep ignoring Him each busy day

Soon His voice is quiet and you are in a place
Where you are ashamed to look upon His face.
Don’t let the rush of shopping be all the worth.
Happier you will be focusing on Christ’s Birth.

My Deliverer


You Oh Lord art my deliverer from the dangers I face.
And it is only by the protection of Thy amazing grace.
You Oh Lord art called Comforter and I truly know,
For when troubles beset me, to You I will always go.
My Advocate who speaks for me when I know not how to pray.
Thou knowest all my needs,”My deliver” I always say.
Wonderful Counselor, my refuge from whence I come.
I am asking only that Thy will in my life will be done..
                           Amen

Mirror's Reflections


We are mirrors for each other.
That is how we learn and grow.
The lessons we desire to learn
Are for us to clearly show.

When I take a good look at you.
And there’s something I see wrong.
You must know there is something within me
That you have shown me to make me strong.

I know that I am beginning to heal
When someone says to me.
“Did you see how she treated you?”
And I honestly did not see.

Now whenever I am upset,
Or angry at someone.
It only takes but a moment
To remind me of God’s own Son.
