The Enemy Within

The Enemy Within
By: Lecie Fitzner
I sit in a room I don't want to be in
Listening to a man talk about the enemy within
An enemy I know all too well
For the enemy is apart of myself
He enters my mind as I try to listen
He tells me to run....hide...
I tell him no no! Leave me be!
For I have a God that loves me
As I focus back in the enemy strikes
Reminding me of previous fights
I just want to be left alone I shout inside my heart
A battle is warring inside my soul
I start to feel all alone
Because I start to listen to the enemy within
The man tells me to hold on to my faith in the one who can win
You're not alone the man says
I sit in my chair feeling as if someone is starring
I look around to see no one starring but the eyes of the enemy within
I can't breath and my heart pounds
The enemy strikes with thoughts and sounds
Thoughts that scare me and that make me fear
But my Father calls me dear
I have won the battle my Father says
The enemy within does not hold you captive
Yes Father yes yes yes I know you're there
But why do I feel so scared
I'm scared to let someone hear me scream
Scared to dream a dream that is so sweet
A dream of one day of no more suffering
The enemy within strikes and cuts so hard
I feel as if I'm slowly being crushed
I cry out why are you doing this to me
You don't remember when you felt as if you were worthless
What would they think of you if they knew
But God loves me He does
He doesn't love you that's just lies
NO more I scream
For I have a God who loves me
I repeat that line over & over
Trying to listen to the man talking about the enemy within
God is here
God is near
The mighty one has won the battle against the enemy within.

God has won the battle over Satan (the enemy)!!!


God bless,
