Bill's Bible Basics Blog

Why waste your time, being down in the dump,
With Satan laughing, and kicking your rump?
Feeling self-pity, is just losing ground,
Admitting defeat, without making a sound.

Get off your butt, and start fighting back,
Rebuke the Devil, and go on the attack.
Charge forward, in the power of God’s might,
Praise the Lord, that snake will take flight.

That demon can’t win, he’s already lost,
‘Cause Jesus Himself, paid the Great Cost.
Be the soldier, that God called you to be,
Battle in faith, and claim the victory.

DEATH COMES KNOCKING

by Bill Kochman

https://www.billkochman.com/Poetry

09-21-2019

I knew that death was calling,
But I was not ready to go,
I still had things left to do,
Though my age had made me slow.

Lord, please give me more time,
Let me make everything right,
I really want to be with You,
I am eager to take my flight.

Such thoughts may seem noble,
But please follow God’s Plan,
He gave you your allotted years,
Now travel to that Promised Land.

GASLIGHTERS

by Bill Kochman

https://www.billkochman.com/Poetry

01-21-2023

Watch out for those gaslighters,
They are playing with your mind,
Twisting facts, perverting truth,
Their game is to leave you blind.

Yes, psychological manipulation,
Is the choice tool of their trade,
Bending your reality every day,
Affecting choices that you made.

TV, newspapers or on the web,
They are always spinning a tale,
Bombarding with their ideology,
A plan born in the bowels of Hell.

You see something a certain way,
But they convince you that it’s not,
Beware of their cunning words,
Don’t be deceived by their vile rot.
