The Devil is a deceiver and the father of lies,
But as an angel of light he will often disguise.
Against this lion we must be vigilant and sober,
Fail to take heed and the battle will be over.

Into captivity we must bring our every thought,
This is how battles by Christians must be fought.
In our minds we cannot ever be weary or faint,
No matter how dark a picture old Satan may paint.

When our enemy like a flood suddenly comes in,
We must cling to God's Word if we expect to win.
The Sword of the Spirit we must raise it high,
It smashes every deception and crushes every lie.

"Ye are of your father the devil, and the lusts of your father ye will do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and abode not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own: for he is a liar, and the father of it."


"And no marvel; for Satan himself is transformed into an angel of light."


"Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour:"


"Casting down imaginations, and every high thing that exalteth itself against the knowledge of God, and bringing into captivity every thought to the obedience of Christ;"


"For consider him that endured such contradiction of sinners against himself, lest ye be wearied and faint in your minds."


"So shall they fear the name of the LORD from the west, and his glory from the rising of the sun. When the enemy shall come in like a flood, the Spirit of the LORD shall lift up a standard against him."


"For the word of God is quick, and powerful, and sharper than any twoedged sword, piercing even to the dividing asunder of soul and spirit, and of the joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart."
