Sometimes we are tested
And it is suggested
To use a defense
The Word of God makes sense
Jesus was tested by the devil
But one weapon did dishevel
He overcame with God’s Word
And a power was conferred
No need to hold back
With God there is no lack
This day with God
Many will applaud
Pray to be set free
Shout with glee
For love flows best
When we have zest
It flows rapidly
And we have liberty
Inspiring bold action
Giving us more traction
Receiving poise through prayer
Giving the enemy a stare
Taking decisive action
It’s all a learned reaction
Taking swift action
Proves our attraction
To every good thing
And gives glory to our King
For going to the Lord first thing
Gives the devil a sting
And provides insight
To everything that’s right
Helping make good decisions
Providing many reasons
To use time well
And a purpose to gel
