THE ARMOR OF GOD


Put on the whole armor of God,
And soldiers we shall be.
Fighting the powers of darkness,
Who thirst for the souls of the free.

Through lust, they try to enslave us,
And silence God's voice in man.
With focus of faith we shun them,
Avoiding the grasp of their hand.

Satan whispers his sadistic thoughts
In every language and every ear.
Tempting all with the sins of hell,
Victims of misery, hopelessness and fear.

Eagerly plotting to disrupt God's works,
Evil swallows up souls like the shifting sand.
The armor of God is our divine protection,
Shielding every child, woman, and man.

Tom,

Got my blood pumping. Your poem sounds like a splendid battle cry! I could see us marching in unity here. In military slang... my Christian friend, this one deserves a big "Booya!!!" (Please, No dishonor on my part intended whatsoever). Smiles. God bless you.

I was hearing "Onward Christian Soldiers" as I read this one.  A good reminder that we must be sure to wear God's armor at all times.
  
  God bless
