I Stand in Faith

by pharp




God takes care of those who trust and believe -

Believe and trust in God's word to achieve

Achieve discernment to face all trials

Trials help to overcome Satan's wiles.




Wiles of Satan are destructive with lies -

Lies will destroy one's faith and compromise.

Compromise God's Word - I refuse to yield. 

Yield not to evil; in God's Word, I'm sealed.




Sealed with God's love when dismay seeks me out -

Out from under distrust, my faith will sprout.

Sprout as a tree fixed; as the Tree of Life,

Life in Christ Jesus gives freedom from strife.




Strife, when confronted, only makes me strong -

Strong in His might, by His will, I'm headstrong

Headstrong to remain firm and take a stand

Stand in faith as I obey His commands.



Commands instruct – delivers me from stress-

Stress can interfere with one's faithfulness.

Faithfulness is my trust in Jesus Christ;


Jesus Christ is Lord, the giver of Life.
