VESPERS AT THE END OF THE SABBATH: CHRISTIAN NECESSITIES: R.E.A.P Truth For Real Riches!

Many Of Us Who Ought To Know Better
Walk Proudly In Selfish Lust
And
Not Humble In Saving Grace!

We ... Like The Fool
Listen To The Lawless Musings Of The Unregenerate Heart
And 
Choose To Follow Fast Fashion, Fair-Weather Friends 
And 
The Furious Fiend
And 
Not The Still Small Voice Of The Sweet Holy Spirit Of Truth
And 
For Our Lack Of Faith's Discernment 
Must Spend Days, Weeks, And Years In The Realm Of 
"What If ...!?!" 
When We Could Be Enjoying The Journey To The Land Of 
"Oh, What A Savior!" 

Disobedience 
On A Warm, Slickly-Buttered Slice Of Instant Gratification 
May Taste Sweet Going Down
But
It Makes Your Belly Bitter
Even As As It Methodically Blights Your Life! 

Regret 
Is 
Like Eating Bitter Melon:
It Doesn't Taste Too Nice Going Down
But
Accepted And Learned From
It Surely Does A Body Good!

Obedience ... On All Points
Is 

  • Good Food
  • A Body Builder
  • A Way Maker
  • A Straight Road 
  • A Trustworthy Convenience Store In The Desert Of Sin
  • An Oasis Of Pure, Cool, And Sweet Water Of Truth To Slake Your Thirst After Drinking The Wormwood Water Of Doubt, The Fire Water Of Sin, And The Sickeningly Sweet Molasses Water Of Unfettered Lust And Inappropriate Desire
It Is Time To R.E.A.P. Truth! 

Recognize It
Embrace It
Accept It, And
Propagate It

To Do Anything Less 
Is 
Spiritual And Physical Suicide!

Thought For The Week Ahead:

Who Is Richer: 
The Man Who Is As Wealthy As King Croesus 
OR 
The Man Whose God 
Is 
The King Of Love
The Flinty Rock In The Desert Of Sin Which Provides Sweet Pure Water Of Life
   When You Are About Ready To Die Of Thirst
The Pillar Of Cloud That Offers Sure Protection From The Burning Heat
And 
The Pillar Of Fire That Provides Light And Warmth 
   In The Dark And Cold Night Of Your Distress 
   When The Encroaching, Raging, Lion Who Is Seeking To Devour You, Roars!?! 

Beloved, 

When Your Unmentionables Are In A Twist
And 
Your Nether Region Is In A Sling
And 
Your Hand Is In The Lion's Mouth
And 
You're Standing On A Banana Peel 
With One Foot And Four Toes In The Grave
There Ain't No Amount Of Money Can Save You
So Set Your Priorities In Order! 

We Can't Buy Off Neither Death Nor Satan
And
Lions Like Blood, Meat And Bone! 

The Choices Are Two: 
The Pride Of Life OR The Love Of God!

The Masters Are Two:
Satan OR The Savior! 

The Residences Are Two:
Damnation OR Salvation! 

And

The Currencies Are Two: Faith OR Doubt 

But 

The Decision Is One ... And Yours Alone: 
Where Do You Stand!?!  
     How Will You Stand!?! 
          With Whom Will You Stand!?! 
               Will You Stand!?! 

Faith Is A Walking Stick
A Battle Ax
A Back Prop
And
Truth Is Light
A Sword
A Comfortable Bed
A Warm Blanket
And
Both Are Christ's Gifts To Us
And
Are Available
Indispensable And Non-Disposable
Christian Necessities!

I Can Wait On The Lord!





I don't need Instant Gratification!
I can Wait on The Lord!
I don't need bells and whistles -
Those come Compliments of The Fraud!

I will not Indulge in Blind Obedience
As called for by The Gods of The Earth!
I will Obey My Father in Heaven
Who knew Me before I was Birthed!

Blind Obedience isn't even for Blind People
Their Training leads them on The Straight Way
My Obedience - My Way - is lead by Straight Teaching
By Him who is The Truth and who doesn't have Feet of Clay!

I will not Practice a Blind Faith!
My Faith comes from The Healer of Blind Eyes
And Hearts, and Hurts
The Faithful One - Himself
The Witness
He who Suffered to Cleanse Me of The Curse of Death!

Father, I can Wait for My Blessing
The One Too Fantastic to Conceive
The Blessing from Him who is Gracious
From Him who My Sorrows did Feel!

I Will Wait ... On The Lord!

VESPERS AT THE END OF THE SABBATH: No Bush Birds!






I am not into The Two Birds in The Bush Coming Prosperity!
I have settled for The Bird Already At Hand!
No Disrespect is intended - My Bird is named King Jesus
The Holy One, Immanuel, The Son of Man!

What Jesus Provides for Me is Sufficient!
What God Holds for Me is Enough!
What The Holy Spirit is Protecting
Is no Junk, Grandiose, and definitely Not Stuff 'n Fluff!

My God has Promised Me a Home in The Kingdom!
My Jesus' Life Guarantees Me The Over-comers Gold Crown!
The Holy Spirit Guarantees Me Faithful Companionship and Direction
A Walk to Perfection, Loving Guidance and a New Song!

So, what if I have to Suffer Deprivation?
So, what if I stub My Toe along The Way?
My Setbacks are neither Final nor Fatal
Because #ITrustAlmightyGod, I Pray, and Walk as He Says!

People, Don't Let The Bush Birds Fool You!
Those Birds are Forever Getting Away!
They are like The Carnival Birds - they are Weighted
Light or Heavy - they are Never For You Going To Pay!


There is No I.O.U. in God!

Jesus Paid it ALL!




And, Just Because ...

HAPPY SABBATH + Eyes Outside Time









God is unhampered
With The Constraints of Time!
Even though I get angry
His Eyesight is fine
To see, and to know, what is waiting down the Road -
I need to get over My upsets
And #LetGodTakeControl!

My Eyesight is straitened!
My Knowledge is constrained!
My Actions have consequences and
Someone else gets blamed
When My cockups cause Me tears
And frustrations are frets -
Thank God for Jesus who hasn't failed Me yet.

Time is for Mere Mortals
#EternityIsGod's
Ignore Satan and his messengers
Those blighted, benighted, lying frauds
Who would have us believing that
Time is a toy
And that because of their influence
We will have untrammeled joys
No matter the Matter
No matter the Mode
No matter the Mess
Get your joy
Don't take excuse nor "No!" 

But let Me inform us that
Our God made The Law!
Don't ignore Him!
Don't bypass Him!
Don't give Him no jaw!
Don't call Him a reject -
His Name is Glorious and
He does not have flaws!

Give Him your utmost respect
For His Eyes travel along
Unrestricted through Our My space and His Time
He sees knows what's comings 
Before we have toes, and a look behind!

Sit stand recline ... but listen
When talking to The Lord
He is All knowing
All Seeing
Ever Present
Almighty God
He holds our time, times and Time in His Hand
He is Trustworthy
He is The Lord
Maker of Man's eyes
Giver of Light
Bestower of Sight
Light in The Night
Dealer in Right
Eternity's Might
Giver of Daylight
Pitcher of Starlight
And My God
Yes, Mine!

Universe can't contain Him
But My Heart can hold 
Joy Sublime
The Great God - Ever Glorious
He IS The Divine
The Divine Ruler of ... Time!
