Does Satan Have A Hold On You?

Rise up,

Weary Christian,

It's time your turn to take a stand,

Right now Satan has you in his hand.

You look right,

And Left,

And there is not 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 have become.

You are no different from those who surround you.

You say God, but follow Satan

You say you believe in Jesus,

When the only belief you have,

Is in yourself.

People are perishing

And going to hell,

But all you can do,

Is think about your desires

Think about yourself.

How can you become so blind,

So quick?

How can you fall so deep,

So far away from your Maker?

Every day 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.

Every day is another tear from the eyes of God.

You practically give yourself to Satan,

And in return you get to fulfill all the sinful desire of your heart.

You no longer walk in 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 one true God.

Then it stops,

And you’re 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 in private.

Satan has his demons around you,

Pulling you down.

You find yourself…

Pushing,

Crying,

Weeping,

Calling upon God,

But you still hold onto the sinful desires,

And until you let them go,

You can never be helped,

Never be made strong,

Or a person worthy to be called a Christian.

You Hypocrite.

You think you are better than anyone,

Anyone before or after you.

Do the laws of God have no affect on you?

Are you higher than God?

Do you think you can leave God,

While you leave 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 the good fight in the spiritual sense?

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 enough for you?

Does Satan have a hold on you?
