Spiritually Wise

Romans 16:17-20

Avoid those which are contrary to belief,
They cause divisions that will give grief;
For they are not trying to serve our Lord,
All the Words of Christ they have ignored;
They are ensuring only their belly be fed,
Deceiving with their words in your head;
A strong faith exposes deception again,
Your obedience radiates out to all men;
It is good when you are spiritually wise,
In concerning evil in opening your eyes;
May God tread on Satan under your feet,
Ending the misery and all of the deceit.
Satan has some tricks that will deceive,
On every one of you who firmly believe;
At any moment for to catch you off guard,
Will be attempting to play the trump card;
Keep your vigilance each and every day,
Anyone of a weak faith is an easy prey;
Being spiritually wise is to know trust,
The difference between need and lust.
