Hold On You?

Rise up,
Weary Christian,
It's your turn to take a stand!

Right now Satan has you in his hand.
You look to the right and left and theirs no way out.
Try looking up to God, then kneeling to the ground.

Each time you give in, it makes it easier for Satan to use you.

Look at the Christian you've become.
You are no different than those who surround you.
You say, "God", but follow Satan.
You say you believe in Jesus, when the only belief you have is yourself.

People are perishing, and going to hell,
But all that you can do is think about your desires, yourself.
How can you become so blind so quick? 
How can you fall so deep, so far away from your maker?

Everyday away is another chance you miss on telling others,
Being a witness.
You become tempted and fulfill your desires.
You worship and praise things, make idols of worthless things.
You are so blind, you can't even see the hand of God right beside you!

Everyday is another tear from the eye of God.
You practically give yourself to Satan, and in return,
You get to fulfill all the sinful desires of your heart.
You no longer walk in the light, but in darkness!
You are drowning in a pool of sin so deep,
You don't know which way is up or down, in or out!

Satan does this so you won't leave, but that you will stay,
And eat out of his hand instead of at the table of God. 
He makes sinful desires your bible and your God,
So you no longer follow the true God.

The it stops, and you at a point…
It is life or death, 
To proclaim Jesus as the Son of God or reject him.
It is not said by your words, but by your actions in public and private! 

Satan has his demons around you, pulling you down,
You find yourself, pushing, crying, weeping, calling upon God.
But you hold on to the sinful desires and until you let them go,
You can never be helped, be made strong,

Or a person worthy to be called a Christian! 

You hypocrite, you think your better than anyone,
Anyone before or after you,
Do the laws of God have no effect on you, are you higher than God?
Do you think you can love God, while you love and exalt yourself,
And your desires.

Think…

God has been testing you, have you stood up to the test.
Have you won the race, fought a good fight in the spiritual since?
Does God look at you and smile or weep?
Were the nails in Jesus' hand not enough for you?
Was his blood not enough for you?
Was the whipping, taunting,

And flogging of his bruised and beaten body not for you?

Does Satan have a hold on you?
