The Devil, the World and the Flesh
The three diabolical enemies of man
Most invincible in their combined attacks
The axis powers of a satanic plan
The Devil…the arch angle of Almighty GOD
The World…so saturated with sin
The Flesh…which makes us weak and mortal
How can we humans ever win?
Win this fight between good versus evil?
Win this battle between heaven and hell?
Win this conflict between the blessed and the damned?
In our mortal weakness we will most certainly fail
The demonic three are most powerful
All alone we stand not a chance
It is their mission to destroy our hopes for Eternal Life
For it is everlasting death they romance
The total destruction of all that is pure and good
The annihilation of GOD’s Kingdom itself
Through temptation, sin and faithlessness
They will not relent until only evil is left
Many men and women will turn away from God
Surrendering to evil in cowardly submission
They will refuse to have faith in the only solution
That can resolve this very grave spiritual condition
In their doubt and spiritual weakness
They will neglect to wear the full armor
Their souls will become the helpless prisoners
Of the World, the Flesh and the "Crafty Charmer"
They will succumb unto a dark eternity
Of torture within the flames of Hell’s fire
Becoming the slaves and beaten captives
Of the Murderer, the Thief and the Liar
But, the few that are saved by the Blood of Christ
Those obedient and faithful few
The valiant soldiers of GOD’s hallowed army
We understand what the evil trio will do
Many a disbeliever will say the words
Yes...many will smoothly talk the talk
But in this war to end all wars
We must cease talking and walk the walk
We must be students and well trained soldiers
In this engagement against the ruthless three
We must call upon a Three of our own
We need The Holy Trinity
Through the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit
Through prayer, meditation and good works
Through learning the Word of GOD and passing it on
We shall inherit a peaceful Earth
The Father…our omnipotent Creator
The Son…who perished and then arose
To wash us clean of our sins and offer Eternal Life
The Holy Spirit… to fill our souls
There is no weapon formed of polluted evil
Neither the Devil, the World or the Flesh
That can hurt or destroy a true child of GOD
For we are protected in our faithfulness
We proclaim Jesus Christ to be our Savior
That He is the only begotten Son of GOD
That He shed His Blood to guarantee our lives
And resurrected for our greater regard
If you should worship GOD, the Father
If you truly believe that Jesus Christ is the Son
If you be filled with the Holy Spirit
Your personal battles with evil will then be won
As it is written...Your battles will be won
With the Holy Trinity by your side
The Grace of the Father…the Sacrifice of the Son
The Holy Spirit as your guide
Without the awesome powers of our GOD
Humankind could never be free
From the Devil, the World and the Flesh
Our most diabolical and deadly enemies
