TALKING A LOT AND DOING NOTHING: Time To Exercise Faith!

... I Have A Bible!

Do You Read It!?!

I Wear A Cross!

Do You Bear Your Cross!?!

I Talk To God!

Do You Listen To God!?!

I Follow The Rules!?!

Do You Follow The Laws Of God!?!

I Am A Child Of God!

Are You A Servant Of God!?!

I Am A Student Of The School Of Jesus!

Are You Becoming Like Jesus!?!

Brethren,

We Can All Say Something Nice
About Our Relationship With Almighty God
But
Is Our Something Satisfactory, Pleasing, To The Lord
Or Does It Excite Satan, The God-Fraud!?!

Oh, Dear!

Nice Expression But Ain't Worth A Lot!
Nice Expression That Can Lead To The Blot!
Nice Expressions Don't Lead To God's Favor
Unless That Expression 
Is
Based And Built Upon Righteousness
And
Gives Off A Heavenly Savor!

Oh, Dear!

Oh, Dear, Indeed!

We All Talk A Good Deal
And
We Say All The Right-Sounding Words
But
Our Thoughts Prior Are Terrible
And
Our Subsequent Actions Are Abominable!

Do You Realize That Not One Of Us Said That
We Are Faithful
Living By Faith
Walking Under The Banner Of The Lord Christ
And
Striving Not To Be A Cast Out Disgrace!?!

I Noticed That No One Said Anything
About Endurance 
About Enduring All Things For The Lord
About Seeking To Gain The Mastery Over Self
About Denying The Works Of The Devil
About Overcoming Sin
In The Name Of Jesus Christ
Who Died Sickeningly To Save Us All ...!

... And Don't Nobody Say "Oh, Dear!"
We Are All Guilty!

Friends, Let's Get Real!
We Could Spend All Night At This "Funeral"
But If We Don't Seek To Change
Our Real Funeral Will Be In The Lake Of Fire!

Chrissy, You Said Earlier That
You Talk To God But That You Don't Know
What It Is That You Should Be Hearing For An Answer!

Yes, I Did!
I Often Wonder What Is The Voice I'm Hearing
Because The Very Thing I Ask For Help Not To Do
Is The Very Thing I End Up Doing ...!

... Because 
You Are Relying On Your Self
And
Not On The Word Of The Living God!

The Living, Holy, Word Of The Eternal God
Is Never 
Contradicted By The Voice Of
The Holy Spirit ... Of Truth ... Of The Eternal God!

AMEN!!!

Okay!
Let's Talk Turkey Aka Jesus Christ's Gift To Us!






The Lord Gives Unto Each Of Us 
A Daily Measure Of His Faith ... For That Day
And 
The Strength To Exercise It ... To Work It
Because 
Faith Without Work Is Dead! 

Living By Faith Is Hard
And
Easy
And 

A Necessity! 

We Are Saved By God's Grace 
Through The Exercising Of Our Gift Of Faith 
So Let Us Dare To Trust The Lord At His Word
And
Obey Him
And
Walk Boldly In His Light 
To Receive Our Sure Blessings Today
And
Every Day! 

Blessings Always Await The Faithful!

Remember Old Sister Cheryl's Prayer:


Oh, Lord!
Please Work On Me!
Please Work With Me!
Please Work Through Me!
Please Work For Me!
Please Work By Me ... Forever!

The One Thing I Would Correct About That Prayer
Is The Line Which Says:


Please Work With Me!

Why Would You Correct That Line!?!

Simple:

If The Lord Is Working With Us 
To Help Us To Avail Ourselves Of His Blessings
And
We Do Not Cooperate With Him
We Achieve Nothing!

I Get Your Point
So I Would Now Pray, Saying:


Dear Lord,
Please Help Me To Work With You
And
Please Help Me
To Energetically Utilize
My Daily Gift Of Faith
And
To Wholly, Enduringly
Cooperate With You
To The Saving Of My Purchased Soul
And
To Bless Others
In Jesus Christ's Matchless, Holy, Name!

AMEN!!!

Victory In Jesus!

By Creation!
By Redemption!
We All Belong To The Lord Christ!
We Are His Gift From The Father
And
It Was For Us That He Yielded Up His Life
- On A Cruel, Shameful, Cross -
So That We, Believing On Him
Shall Not Have To Suffer Loss!

We Have No Need To Wander
No Need Lost To Roam
No Need To Live In Perplexity
Because
Jesus Christ For All Our Known Sins
Did Willingly
And
Lovingly Atone!

Hear The Appeal ...

Please Give Of Your Best To Our Master!
Do Not In Disdain Speak His Name!
Do Not The Multitude Follow
And
Make Almighty God's Eternal Truth 
A Cheap Thing Most Profane!

Turn Away From Useless Things ...

There Is No Need For A Four-Leaf Clover
A Dead Rabbit's Hairy Foot
A "Lucky" Horse-Shoe
Because
The Lord Of Life
Is 
Also The Lord Of Good And Perfect Things
Who Daily Assuredly Faithfully Mercifully
Takes Precious Care Of The Personal You!
Why Do You By Unbelief Doubt Him!?!
Don't You Know That There Is No Safety 
Being Out On A Broken Limb!?!

By Perfect Love
Jesus Christ Does Our Burdens Bear
Because
He Is Touched By The Feelings Of Our Infirmities
So, Please, Approach Unto Him 
With Humble Fervent Prayer!

Decisions Must Be Made ...

Today I Told The Savior Jesus
That If He Shall My Loving Shepherd Be
I Shall His Lamb Be And Faithfully
And
If He Will Of His Bounty Daily Bless
I Shall Ever Sing His Praises
And
By My Own Faithful Expressive Love
I Shall Give Voice Most Joyfully!

Truth Must Be Told ...

Jesus Loves Me!
Get In The Know!
Read A Real Bible Daily!
This Life Is No Pappy Show!

Be Ye Warned ...

Santa, Vile
Is 
The Father Liar
AndThe First Killer
Efficient 
In Perpetrating Grand And Gross Deceits!

His Task Is To Trap And Kill You
So, Please, I Beseech
Utilize Jesus Christ's Holy Faith
- In Childlike Trust - 
And
Boldly Avoid Him
And
In The Fullness Of Time
Under Your Feet
He Shall Be Tiny, Tiny, Dust!

Jesus Christ Is Real
And
Heaven
 - The Home Of The Blessed - 
Is 
Very Real!
So Trust The Lord Christ
And
Smartly Move Away From Sin's Deadly Damnation
To Great And Glorious Salvation
Because
With Jesus In You
You Shall - Of Achieving The Victory - Not Fail!

Faith And Belief + PRAYER: Father, I Can Hear You!

We All Have Choices!

Thank God For Jesus!

I Can't Speak For Anybody Else
- Every Human Has That Personal Choice To Make -
BUT
I Choose Jesus
AND
I Will Listen To The Voice Of My God!
I Will Not Look At What Is Wrong In My Life

Even Though It May Seem
That I Carry The Weight Of The World!
In Jesus Christ's Name
I Will Stay With The Living Truth
In Almighty God's Holy Word!

AMEN!!!

I Could Be Upset By This And That!
I Could Feel Put Upon This That And The Other!
I Could Look At What I See With My Lying Eyes
AND
I Could Be By Sight 
Turned Away From The True God
AND
Turned Toward What Is On The Ground
BUT
I. By. Living. Faith. Choose.
To Accept That The Word Of The Eternal God
IS
Ever True
AND
I Shall Take His Promises
Made Unto Me
With A Covenant Written In Innocent Blood
AND
Dare To Go Against Man's Mind
Dare To Go Against Men's Missions
Against Belief And Perception Collisions
AND
I Shall Trust
- Like A Little Child -
I Shall Trust The Glorious One
- We All Need To Trust Him -
Who Sacrificially Loves Me
AND
I Shall Hear
- Really Hear -
AND
My Heart Shall Plainly See Truth
For I Choose
- I Willfully Choose -
To Accept Almighty God's Grace
To Honor The Living God By My Faith
AND
To Be Blessed
In With By And Through
The Holy Love
That Condescended To My Level
That Raises Me Up To His Level
That Loves Me!

Praise God!!!


PRAYER:

Lord,
I Am Listening!
With Your Eyes Let Me See
The Love That Left Glory
And
Died For Me On Mount Calvary!
Thank You For The Blessing!

Father,
I Do Not Desire Gold
Silver
Diamonds And Perishable Pearls!
I Need Your Pearls Of Wisdom
Your Gems That Give Understanding
Your Robe That Marks One With Righteousness
And
I Shall Be Satisfied
With This Life
Though I Face Strife!
Make Me Like You, Lord!

By Your Blessed Grace, Father
I Will Look Up
And
I Shall Live Faithfully Here And Now
To Then Live Eternally
In The Glorious Land
In The Mansion That You Have Prepared
For This Child Of The Dust
Made Alive With The Breath Of The Divine!
Come Soon, Lord!

Thank You, Lord
For Coming
For Dying
For Rising
For Interceding
For Your Soon Return
And
For Loving Me And My Kind!
We Need You, Lord!

Pour Out Of Your Spirit On My Flesh
And
Make Me Afresh
A Willing Spirit!
We Need New Life, Lord!

Please Bless Me With Victory
Over Sin
In The Battlefield Of The Mind
For
You Are God Almighty
And
Able!
No Ones Loves Us Like You, Lord!

Please Remember The Brethren
And
Grant Them Your Peace And Rest
And
Provide For Each According To Their Need!
You Are Our God And Holy!

I Worship You, Lord
And
I Pray God
That It Will Always Be
In Word, Thought And Deed
And
In Spirit And In Truth!
In Jesus Christ's
I Present My Heart's Petition!
I Love You, Lord!
AMEN.

HAPPY SABBATH + Cat's Miaow To Dog Botsi?!?





How Does One Go From
Being The Cat's Miaow
To Living Like A Dog's Botsi
From Grazing In Green Grass
To Living Off Weed
From Walking Straight
To Living Bent
To Having Given Up Sin
BUT
Only For The Season
That Is Popularly Called Lent?!

How Do You Worship God
But Only When Convenient?
How Do You Serve God
But Only When Expedient?
How Do You Praise God
But Only When There Is An Audience
AND
Deny God 
Because To Admit It
Would Mean That You Are Subservient?!

How Can We Progress
If We Live By Excess?
How Can We Be Adjudged Innocent
By God
If We Don't Our Known Sins Confess?
How Can We Be Blessed
When We Revel In Sin's Curse
Taking Pleasure In Hope-Killing
AND
Running After The Tricked-Out Hearse?!

Let It Made Known That ...

Without Jesus Christ
Man Twice Dies
BUT
With Jesus Christ
Man Shall Surely Fly
Without Need Of Rocket Fuel
Protective Garments
AND
Telecommunications' Tools
Because
He Has Peace With The Eternal God
AND
The Eternal Crown Is The Coveted Jewel!

Please ... 

Don't Fall For Satan's Fatal Lies
AND
Eternally Die
When, Instead
By Living In Faith In Jesus Christ
- Based On The Preserved Word Of Truth -
You Will One Day Soon
Range The Open Skies!

Trust Jesus!
Bless God!
Curse The Devil!
Learn From The Holy Spirit
AND
Be Protected By Holy Angels
Because
God's Love Can Never Lie!
God's Love Will Never Die!

For Your Own Soul's Sole Salvation
Do Not Your Soul's Savior
Decry
Defy
OR
Deny!

False Preachers Teaching ... Comfortable Lies!

There Are Very Wicked Preachers
Who Tell People:

You Cannot Conquer ...
... There Is No Victory
Over The Urge To Sin!

Yet 
These Are The Self-Same
Bright-Light Teachers
Who Boldly Constantly Preach:


YOU Are An Achiever!
YOU Are A Truly Blessed Child Of God!
Go After YOUR Goals!
In The Name Of Jesus - YOU Shall Get That Big Win!
Do Not Listen To The Fraud!


Pray, Tell Me ... If You Think You Can
How These Two Schools Of Thought Comport
AND
Then Tell Me
If Jesus Can Help You Achieve Your Secular Though Fleeting Goals
If He Isn't Also Able To Get You The Win
That Sees You Entering The Safe-Sheep Fold?!

Why Are Gospel Teachers Preaching Fables
AND
Why Are The Preachers Teaching The Swill
That Places Sinners Needing Converting
Squarely Outside The Ark Of Safety
Where They Become Satan's Booty? 
His Happy Pill?!

Why Are We As Believers
Trusting These Honestly-False Hireling  Shepherds
AND
Believing Their Shallow Words
AND
Not The Deep Words
That The Word Of God Says
AND
Attaching Ourselves Securely
To Damnation's Bitter Yolk
Instead Of Going To The Father
AND
- By Faith -
Trusting By Belief
The Words That Our Master In Truth Spoke?

God Cannot Change
AND
His Living Words Will Not!
God Is Neither Fickle
Nor A Waffler
When He Says That Unrepentant Sinners
Will Have Their Names
From The Lamb's Book Of Life
Blotted Out!

If You Believe Jesus Christ Can Fix The Trivial For You
Then
Please Believe Him All The Way
AND
Let Him Get The Victory Over Besetting  Sin 
Just For You!
He IS The Personal Hands-On God!

When The Preacher Teaches You That

It Is Okay

  • To Wilfully Disobey God For Personal Comfort
  • To Wilfully Indulge In Sin For Personal Comfort
  • To Wilfully Alter The Word Of God For Personal Comfort

That
  • The Living Word Of God Is Useless To Help You Change Your Life
AND

  • That The Almighty And Eternal God Cannot Fix What Ails You


It Is Time To Know 
AND
Understand 
AND
Again, Know
That You Need 
A New Minister
A New Preacher
A New Teacher
A New Church
A New And True Bible
AND
The Old Creator God!

If The Infinite God
Cannot Fix
The Finite Man
Through Faith And Belief
In The Sure Word
Then He Is
- Just Like Satan -
 A Bold Liar!

However ...

The Eternal
Creator Holy
Omniscient Omnipresent Omnipotent
Cannot-Fail Living God
Is Not A Flawed Man
So
He Cannot Lie!
All Men Are Liars!

Now ... Go Do The Kindergarten Math!

Who Are YOU Going To Trust?!

THE CONVERSATION: Take The Hand!

I Was In The Sin-By-Rote Work Camp!
I Did Not Know How I Had Gotten There!
Then ...

I Remembered!
I Had Had An Affair With Minor N. Miniscule-Wrongdoing
Reclining Often
In His Plush Plump Lounge Chair!

I Did Not Know
That Minor N. Miniscule-Wrongdoing
Had Passed The Word Along About Me
That I Was An Easy Target
Until
Liberty Is License
Untoward Behavior
Ignorance Is Bliss
AND

Do What-Thou Wilt
Started Baying
All Wanting
Their Own Piece Of Me!

The Days Were Long!
The Nights Were Hard!
Somebody Was Forever Calling For Me
AND

I
- Thinking I Could Handle The Traffic -
Blazed Around Town
Well ... Right Loftily!

I Got A Warning Citation From Conscience!
Then I Got Real Tickets
Three And Then Came
No. 4
AND
No. 5
AND
I LAUGHED!

Yes, I Laughed
For I Wittingly Chose
To Ignore
My Fair Conscience
Because
I Was Doing Obeisance
At
- Of All Places -
The Golden Calf
The All Things Idolatrous Store!

I Had Gotten In Deep
With The "In" Crowd
You Know
Those Who Know Not God
AND

I Also Ran Valiantly
With The One Known As The Fraud
Who Took Pride
In Decimating
Men
Minds
Manners
AND

Matters
As He Saw Fit
AND

Felt
So Inclined!

I Was In The Position Supine
AND 

To Sin
I Had Become A Walk Over!
I Had Been Ignoring
The Call Of The Divine
AND HERE 

Now
Was Make Or Break!
Everything Was On the Line!

I Could See Life!
My Life!
I Was Nearing
The Jordan Cross Over
AND
I Was Facing
- Surely For Ill -
The Separation From God's Forever Life
Line!

Long Story Short ...

There Was The Tale Of Two Kitties
Brush Me
AND
Wipe Me Out
AND
Sufficed To Say
I Lost Out Big
One Rainy Day ...!

Oh ...

I Remember Now!
I Had Stopped
Saying My Prayers
Preferring
To Haste The Day
AND

Play The Play!
I Was Boss!
I Called The Toss!

Not Long Thereafter ...

I Heard Myself Crying!
- I Had Been In A Deep Sleep -
And Then ...

Then ...

I Was Listening!

HE
Was Talking To Me
AND
Before Long
For My Life I Was Bawling:

Father, Dear Father
Have Mercy On Me!
This Present Life
Is Not What I Want To Be Living!

I Have Been
Am
A Sin-Slave!
I Am Shackled!
I Desire Escape!
Please Help Me
I Am Facing The Lonely Grave!

Child,
I Love You!
This Is Why I Keep Calling You
Desiring Your Answer
And
Pleading With You
That You Turn Away From Sin!


Sin Is A Grave!
With Your Own Hand
The Ground You Claved
And Only You
Can Stop The Digging
That You Substantially Craved!

You Have Called Out
And
I Am Here!


Hold My Hand

Even When You Cannot
See
Or Feel Me!
Know Of A Surety
That
I Am Here!

I Lift You Up When You Call!
I Lift You Out When You Fall!
I Provide For You
So Don't Look Back
And

Don't Look About!

You Have Confessed! 
And
You Have Repented! 
So, Be Thou Clean
For

You Are Forgiven!
Now
From Sin
Forever
Walk Away!


Go

And
Sin No More!


Abide In Me
Even As I Abide In You!

Let Not Your Eyes
Make Your Life A Revolving Door
For It Will Be Worse For You
Until, Finally
My Voice
You Will Hear No More!

Know
And
Remember This ...
Call On Me
And
I Will Always Answer Thee!


Father,
Lead Me!
Guide Me!
Please Show Me Your Way!
Teach Me The Way To Life
And Protect Me
Through The Strife!

Lord, 
I Am Scared
And
I Am Weary
And
I Need Your Peace And Your Rest! 
Thank You For Not Giving Up On Me!
Thank You, Lord!
I Now Know That I Am Truly Blessed!

Beloved,

Accept This Grace
I Give To You - 
Mercy Is Her Always Available Companion!
Accept This Measure Of Faith I Give To You -
Holy Angels Are Your Attending Companions!


My Holy Spirit

Is Your Comforter -
Trust In His Chiding
His Correction
His Direction!

  

I Beseech, Beloved

Trust Not The Voice

That Calls You
To Live Right In Your Own Eyes! 
Instead,

Trust Me Who - Alone -

Keeps You Alive
And
In The Fulness Of Time
When I Shall Return
You Will To Paradise Arise!


Brethren,
My Eyes - By Faith -
Now See
The God Of All Grace
The God Who Paid For Salvation For Me!

I Am Free - I Left The Damnation Horde!
I Am Truly Alive -
I Walk With Those
Who For Heaven Do Strive
AND
Praise God
- In The Day -
I'll Cross The Jordan
Dry-Shod
Rejoicing
Blessed To Receive The Kingdom
For
I Have The Light
- Heavenly Light -
That Lights My Way
To Eternal Life!

I Like The Sound!
I Love The Song!
I  Am Heading Toward
Eternal Life
The Life That Is
Forever Long!

The Devil Is A Liar
AND
Sin Is The Saliva
He Is Ever Spitting
Besmirching All
Upon Whom It Lands
So, Please
Call Jesus
AND
Get The Umbrella Of Christ's Faith
So That The Defiling Excrement Of Satan
Cannot
Upon Your Mind Land
Pushing You Into Defiling Disgrace!

Hold To God's Unchanging Hand!
Take The Hand!
Take The Hand!
TAKE THE HAND!!

And Walk

- Unwearied -
To The Promised, Promised Land
Where Only Those
Victorious ... Over Sin
Can
- SHALL -
Stand!
Take The Hand!
Reach The Land!
Eternally Stand!
