Justice of God

I wonder about the human race

Who live on God’s created place

A garden that He made for us

A place where everything is just

The serpent waiting by a tree

Changed everything – was it he?

We chose the fruit – we ate it too

Justice had to follow through

God said we’d work by sweat of brow

Today some people don’t know how

Women would labor at child birth

Now children wonder about their worth

We seek vengeance for the enemy

He’s as busy as he’ll ever be

We sing and praise and make warfare

We ask that life would be more fair

Temptation comes and we rebel

“Out of jail free” we’d never sell

Justice doesn’t stop temptation

Justice keeps us from damnation

Justice is God’s love for us

Jesus paid the price for us

Put the fruit back on the tree

Bring  justice to the enemy

That little devil on your shoulder

That little devil on your shoulder is recognizable by either asking you questions that he wants you to answer in his favor, or by diminishing the consequences of  things that you shouldn’t do.  Some examples are:

“This isn’t so bad – is it?  No one will ever know – will they?  No one is looking – are they?

One time won’t hurt anyone.  Everybody  does it..  I deserve this.  Only one more time –

Only one more time – Only one more time – This is the last time.”  That little devil.

The first thing that little devil will do, is put you against yourself  and in a self-destruct

mode, so he doesn’t have to do anything else but jump on to another shoulder.

Those diminishing consequences have now increased and now you can’t stop.

How do you stop?  What you must do, is not answer his questions in his favor. You have to know the answers to his questions before he asks them.  What are the answers?

Is this so bad?  Yes it is.  Will anyone know?  Yes they will.  Is anyone looking?  Yes they are.  Will one time hurt anyone?  Yes it will.  Everybody does it?  No they don’t.

I deserve this?  You deserve better.  Only one more time?  You said that the last time.

Apparently, that wasn’t the last time.  That little devil.   You’re almost out of time.

Now what is the answer?

Submit yourself  to God;  Resist the devil and he will flee from you.

Draw near to God and He will draw near to you.     James 4:7-8

You deserve better.    Peace ♥
