Every Day's A Battle

EVERY DAY’S A BATTLE

Every day’s a battle
As Satan seeks to destroy
Those who are unwary
His tricks he does employ

He gets inside your head
With thoughts that will depress
To make you feel unworthy
And add to daily stress

He will put up stumbling blocks
“Innocently” blocking your way
Adding to the depression
Til you feel you can’t even pray

The Apostle Peter wrote
To be vigilant and sober
For our adversary the devil
Is seeking whom he can devour

We need to stay in God’s Holy Word
And daily seek His face
Never ceasing, always praying
And depending on His grace

For the battle is not won
In just a single day
Against a tricky adversary
It is won every time we pray
