Faith not Feelings Archives - A Doctor's Cure for the Soul

Escape Temptations

For when tempted, God provides
A way out, an escape
That we’re able, to endure
So let us learn, avoid mistakes.

Overwhelmed, on our own
We feel helpless, and lost
So set our mind, believe God’s Word
There is victory, through the cross.

Keep God’s Word, in our heart
Cry out to God, and resist
Resolve, I will obey
The Holy Spirit, will assist.

“You will show me, the path of life
In Your presence, fullness of joy
Weeping, may endure for a night
But in the morning, comes joy.”

Now I’m freed, from being ‘Broigas’
Am reconciled, fully forgiven
And those ‘Broigas,’ toward me
I share forgiveness, God has given.

Instead, Jesus commands us
To love, even our foe
So live not, based on feelings
Obey Jesus, and grow.

So, each offence forgive
Repent, be reconciled
Be freed from those burdens
Pray God’s love, be recognized.

Recall, God has commanded
We be strong, of good courage
Are not afraid, nor dismayed
Nor are we discouraged.

While our Heavenly Father
Knows our struggles and frame
Bids us turn unto Jesus
Humbly call on His Name.

So younger or older
Both need to repent
Whether passion or pride
Instead, live as Father meant.
