HAPPY SABBATH + Prayer: Heavenly Father, Help me






Heavenly Father:
Help me not to listen to
The siren song called Good Friend
Nor to sing from the Sin of Presumption's music score!
Help me to stand up for The Right
So that I may in His Love delight!
Help me to ignore that fiend called Peer Pressure
Who always seems to know the best wrongs
Which will lead to my death
Should I bend, and with him walk along!
Help me to ignore the friendly Clique
Which claims to be my family
Begging me to conform
If I want to be considered a "norm"
Else I'll be treated like roast corn!
Help me to listen to the Gentle Harp
That is calling me to Soul Salvation
As I ignore the rolling bass drum 
That seeks to drag me into vile sin's scrum!
Help me to Set-aside Self
And seek Safety in The Savior!
And help me, Father, on this day
To choose Life and Godly Behavior!
Open my longing eyes to Your Holy Word of Truth and
Prepare my heart to receive it!
And when those who would teach the Word
Apply Lie's Bleach to adulterate the Word
Shield me so that their vain word to me is unheard!
And when the day should come that I
Shall stand before the Prosecutor
Deliver as promised in Your Word -
No fear of my interlocutor!
I love You, Lord, and I bless Your Holy Name.
AMEN.

I Get The Impression




I get the impression
That some people think
That God is a fool
To trot out on occasion
And set down on the center stool
To be used to amuse
Like He's just some cheap tool!

I get the impression
That some people think
That God is a stool
To sit on upon occasion
While we play the fool
Acting all cool
Like we were back in school!

I get the impression
That some people think
That God is a tool
To dig out on the occasion
Of some emergency dire
To be sharpened and e’en inflated
When we face the mire and the fire!

I may be wrong
But impressions do count
For I, too, am guilty
Of neglecting and least counting
The role of the Master
As we tread life’s vale!
He’s here for all seasons
Not just for the soul’s travail!



So, please, join now with me
Let the Master take charge
Let Him be the leader and
In your life loom large!

The fool is what Satan thinks Him!
The tool - it was His cross!
The stool is where we sit by Him
As He tells of the great cost
That He paid to redeem us
To save us - His children - from eternal loss!

Please don’t minimize Him
You can’t Him maximize
He is God - the Creator
In Him our lives we realize!

So bless Him!
Exalt Him!
To His Great Name - give praise!
Sing glory, hallelujah
For soon He will us raise!

John 1:1-5, 10-14 (KJV)

Believers are Blessed


 Believers are Blessed




We clothe ourselves with humility
We arm ourselves with prayer
We bow before God as supplicants
We cast on Him every care and seek rest


We seek His will for our lives
We treasure His every word
His stripes are those that heal us
His tears our eyes wash and refresh


He has prepared for us a table
He anoints with oil our heads
He fills our cups to overflowing
He has fashioned us white robes and glittering crowns


We do not want for anything
He is our all and all
He by still waters lead us
We have nothing to fear should we die


He heals us all with His stripes
He doth sin-sick souls restore
He in righteous paths daily lead us
He makes us by green pastures rest


Sin cannot take us away from Him
He paid sin's price for our paths
His mercy and goodness shall follow us
While our lives on this earth shall last


And when at last through the valley
Of death's shadow we seemingly descend on our own
We have nothing to fear in the darkness
For He never leaves us by ourselves, all alone


Soon the trumpet of the Archangel resounding
Shall wake the dead and the living alert
All we who have placed our faith in the Savior

And we shall live in His House for eternity

Opposers of The Truth




Opposers of The Truth


Trust not your soul to the opposers
Those who don't love the Word
Read you the Bible for yourself
It is God's immutable Word!



Those dread opposers of the Truth
Do not have a valid opposition
And they only oppose the Truth because
It makes true believers question their earthly tradition!




They also oppose the Truth because
It gives the masses power
And strength to stand up, and loudly say
"Lord, please take this stumbling-block away!"


The Truth opposers are separated from
The poor, the meek, the frail
By wealth, position, learning and
The rarified air they inhale!


They love not Jesus nor His Word
They've chosen Satan as their lord
And all around they feint and confound
Preferring destruction to turning around!


These men and women who oppose
The transcript of God's character
Try to deny Jesus access to the child
Who would upon Him safely rely!


They oppose, then propose new rules by which
Mere mortals should unerringly abide
Do what thou wilt!” is their song and chant
For that vile devil did them enchant!


Through seven church ages – six have passed
These opposers have been so bombastic
Deftly exalting human authority – what nerve
Over individual conscience – it's a curse!

Every human received at its conception
A free will, and a conscience, without exception
Which both inherently know to do the right
But doing the right seems oft' to come with a fight!


Let no man, parent, church nor the state
Remove from your will your conscience to activate
For each man, alone, will the Judgment seat face
And before the Lord his accounts he must state!


Each account is settled according to the work
Even the lengthy account of the Arch Deceiver!
For King Jesus is bringing each man his reward
As none can hide his account from God, the Lord!



So associate you not with The Truth opposers
Learn for yourself – The Word is not still!
Do not try to oppose God – you cannot win!
And the opposers of The Truth, they cannot you fill!




GIVE GOD HIS GLORY!!

Balaam's Ass Required



BALAAM'S ASS REQUIRED




I wish I could be a Balaam's Ass
To some of these modern-day preachers
Who seem activated by a Balak spirit
Seeking to make God's people act like they're illiterate


By clothing, ritual, word and deed
These preachers seek to enrich themselves with speed
By putting great price to the teaching of the Word
Which does not edify and makes spirits curd



Plant a seed, buy an oil, purchase a miracle
Preacher man is begging, he needs a new toy
Congregations, they then come out to pray, and pay
Satan's advocates big money to be led astray



Cry shame! Oh, Lord, have mercy, come and defend
Your people who go church for a good word and to pray
To You, by the Spirit, in Jesus' name
Come, Thou, Dear Lord! Defend! Defend!


They teach for doctrine the commandments of men
They have willingly departed the faith
And sold their souls for a pot full of stew
Whilst giving up heaven's reward and refusing it to believers, too


One of these preachers I, myself, heard say
That the shepherd's prosperity has first to come into play
Since the shepherd leads the sheep, he should get his first
Because if he walked behind, all he'd get is some poo in the purse
(emphasis added!)


We warn you now, you apostate preacher
We are servants of the Galilean Teacher
Change your ways, amend, oh, root out
The behaviors that cause a dumb donkey to speak out!


Fear not, I tell you, believer in the Lord
Our God, the Almighty, He will supply a sword
To the angel who will cut them off if they don't turn back
And return to teaching, and preaching, the Lean Word – not fat!


First they took our money, then they stepped on the truth
Followed by our souls they seriously imperiled to boot
But, thankfully, some of us knew the dear Creator's voice
And that was enough to make our hearts rejoice


Our Lord had no mansions, no diamond cellular phones
No bodyguards, no choppers and definitely no cars
He preached the Message – it was UNDILUTED!
No color, no spin, and certainly it was not trimmed convoluted!


Sola Scriptura. The Word! The Word!
A “Doth saith the Lord!” should be heard, you cur!
Preach conscience, repentance, new birth, that sin's a stain
And only Blood can remove it, or on the soul it remains!


Oh, preacher, God forgives! So please repent!
Confess! He's faithful! Oh, won't you relent?
Confession and repentance are good for the soul
Give your burden for false riches to Jesus, He'll take it in control!


So, Dear Ones, I beseech you
Don't idly sit by
And let the preacher betray his calling
And lead you to die
Become Balaam's Ass
Open your mouth and speak
Stop swallowing the nonsense
That some of these preachers teach


Don't give up real gold
For this earth's deadly dross
That rusts, and gets stolen
Stop playing with the fluff!


Hold on to King Jesus
His Word – it will guide
To mansions on gold streets
Water of Life running by!


Read your Bible for your self
Compare text with text
Demand that your preacher
Preach in context even if he gets vexed!


Your gaining heavenly life depends
On your personal understanding
That Jesus is coming soon
He's even at the door
Prepare now – get ready!
Don't get a surprise when He shows!


Only those who are unprepared
Will be caught unawares
So put your spiritual house in order
So you won't be dismayed


My braying is over for now
I have said my piece
Until I see you next time
Go thou in peace!


CORRUPT DOCTRINE
CORRUPT WORSHIP
CORRUPT PRINCIPLE
CORRUPT PRACTICE
&
CORRUPT CONVERSATION
GREATLY
DISPLEASE GOD!!
