Wicked Satan Poem by Dr. Lalita Smith

</></>Wicked Satan
Continued not in his first estate; neither kept his faith
Harbored no good intent towards God,
Although God had created him.

Wicked Satan
Has never had a mate but chooses to fraternize
With humanity on every date of the calendar.
With pride in his heart, he rebelled
seeking the God-head privileges of worship, reserved
for the Triune alone.
God set Satan at naught and kicked him out of heaven.
He was hurled down from the throne room like a lightning bolt
On at first, an uninhabited planet, until God created
Adam and Eve and their offspring in His image and likeness,
and gave them dominion over it.

Wicked Satan
Makes things appear pleasant in men's eyes
Invoking earthly appetites and desires.
Then making suggestive verbal commands
in men and women's minds so they hearken to him.
Thus humaniry transgresses God's will; violate His holy laws,
And ultimately yield our lives and limbs to temptation.

Wicked Satan
The instigator of sorrowful consequences
Uses deceptive means to lure, trick and entice.
Think twice before you entertain him.

----
And war broke out in heaven: Michael and his angels fought with the
dragon; and the dragon and his angels fought, but they did not prevail,
nor was a place found for them in heaven any longer. So the great
dragon was cast out, that serpent of old, called the Devil and Satan,
who deceives the whole world; he was cast to the earth, and his angels
were cast out with him. (Revelation 12: 7-9)
