Temptation
by Benjamin Anabaraonye In the wilderness,Christ was tempted Those forty days, He prayed and fasted; Getting ready to start ministry, He was ambushed by the enemy. The Son of God yet Son of man Faced the assaults of satan Tempted by satan in many ways Hear what the enemy said: "You're hungry and need to be fed So turn these stones to bread; If you are the Son of God, then Selfishly display your power to men." "Acknowledge me and bow down, And i'll give you earth's most beautiful towns," Tempting Christ to lust and pride But victoriously Christ did stride. Since God's Son was not exempted We,as God's children,will also be tempted By God's Word, Christ overcame And we can do just the same. Temptation can come any day So we must watch and pray And he can use man or woman To carry out his deadly plan. But when he comes as he would We must stand strong as we should Putting on the whole armor of God, Put satan to flight by God's Word! Put on the whole armour of God,that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil.Ephesians 6 vs 11(KJV) Benjamin Anabaraonye is a Christian poet,Author and Songwriter based in Nigeria.
