Remain True to God

James 4:6-10

God gives more grace as the Writings read,
For He is against those with pride decreed;
But grace is given to those who are humble,
While in His presence and never to stumble;
Be ruled by God wage war on satanic foes,
And they will be fleeing as the river flows;
Come close to God and He will come near,
Make your hands clean lending Him an ear;
Purify your mind and heart discard deceit,
Be afflicted with sorrow as on a downbeat;
Let laughter turn sour with joy into grief;
Making yourself humble to Godly belief.
You will be lifted up by Him in His sight,
Turning your darken area snowy white;
By being humble and showing respect,
A stronger faith as temptations reject;
Know what the Scriptures are all about,
And all verses you read never doubt;
Listen to God and He will listen to you,
For all that He says will remain true.
