HAPPY SABBATH + OASIS IN LIFE FOR LIFE: Of Good ... And For Blessings!


Sing Out My Soul to The Lord: HAPPY SABBATH + Jesus, Lover Of My ...




Our Oasis 
Is 
Notable For Always Having Fresh, Clean, Sweet Water
And
Sure And Ample Shade
To Comfort The Soul Of The Traveller
To Give His Strength To Prevail ... To Plod On
On The Road To Victory Over Sin, Self, Satan, Hell
Death And The Cold Grave
Giving The Shout Of Triumph
Thanking God Almighty
In The Person Of Jesus Christ The Righteous
Who, Alone
Has The Power To Succour All Of Us!

The Good Book That Tells Of Christ Jesus
The Word Of Truth
The Word Of God
The Pardoner Holy Just And True
Is
Our Oasis In Life's Desert Of Sin
Calling Us To Soul Salvation
Giving Us Ample Reason
To Our Purchased Victory To March On!
Let Us Be Faithful!
Let Us Not To The Adversary Give In! 

Now Hear The Word Of The Lord
To Me, To You:



Psalm 25:8-9 - KJV - Bible verse of the day - DailyVerses.net

Brethren,

We Will Never Arrive At The Heavenly Home
Under Our Own Steam
And
Like It Or Not ... To Get There Safely
We, All, Must Make Some Hard Acknowledgements: 

  • I'm A Sinner 
  • I Must Ignore Temporal Glory
  • I Must Turn Away From The Scenes Of Life That Humbled Me To Shame
  • I Must Be Of A Meek And Gentle Spirit
  • I Must Walk In The Footsteps Of My King In The Way That He, Personally, Has Marked For My Feet

The Lord Can Teach A Meek Soul 
And
He Can Save The Acknowledged Sinner
But
The Lord Can Do Nothing For The Person Whose Lust For 
Temporal Aka Earthly Glory 
Is 
More Than His Love For His Lord 
And 
His Desire To Be Eternally Saved
Nor For The Person Who Believes That His Sin ... His Shame
Is 
Bigger Than The Lord's Capacity To Forgive 
And
To Cleanse! 

Beloved, 

Everything That We Do Involves Thought ... Decision-Making
And
We Must Decide To Believe That The Word Of God Is True
And
That As Repentant Sinners Aka Sinners Saved
The Lord God Of Grace For Us Now
And
Glory For Us To Come
Will Guard, Guide, Lead, Feed, Chide Aka Correct
Abide With Us
Deliver Us From Sin And Death
And 
Physically Reclaim Us On The Great Day! 

The Word Of God
Is 
The Transcript Of God's Character!
The Word Of God Is Living
And By It 
We Know That We Have Eternal Life!


Read The Living, Holy, Word
And
Remind Yourself ... Daily
That You Have A Future
And
An Expected End -
The Gift Of The Eternal God!

The Word Of God, Again, Is Our Oasis!
This Oasis Means Life To Us Who Are In The Desert ... Of Sin!
Please Consider ... Carefully ... This Fact:

An Oasis ... A Known Blessing To Travellers
Is 
Profitable To The Man Who Finds It
And
Greedily, Gratefully, Avails Himself Of Its Benefits!

The Man Who Blithely Walks Past
The Only Oasis In The Desert
While Declaring That Such A Way-Station
Is 
For Weaklings And Cowards
Will Slowly Die A Painful Death
When His Bravado And His Earthly Supplies Are Depleted
And
There Is No Other Known Stop For Body And Soul Refreshing!


Make The Decision ...

We Thoughtfully Don't Leave Home Without "Our" Cell Phone! 
How About Let Us Thoughtfully Decide 
Not To Leave Home Without "Our" Lord
- Who Is Infinitely More Profitable - 
In Our Hearts!?! 
The Living Word Works Full-Time!

Remember ...

All Good And Perfect Gifts ... Blessings
Come From "Our" Lord Christ
In Whom Is "Our" Life!
Accept The Blessed Provisions From The Hand Of Our Lord
And
Live!

DECISIONS, DECISIONS: Send To The Lord The Word Of Commitment!

There's A High Price To Low Living!
I Should Know!

The Best Life Is To Live In Christ Jesus!
That's A Fact That I Truly Know!

Doing Wrong Brings From Doing Right, A Division!
To Come That Realization, I Know I Was Slow!

Brethren,
Having Lived Fairly Long
Having Done The Thing The Word Of Truth Calls Wrong
Having Felt The Pain Of The "I'm So Sorry!" Song
Let's All Now Take The Eternal Position 
To Live With Christ
In That Place Where Time Does Not Belong
And 
Give Our Found-Happiness Its Voice
By Sending Up A Word Of Commitment
To The King So That Forever And Ever
- When Time Shall See Its Just End -
We May For Eternity Truly, Truly, Rejoice!

Living Life Making Life And Death Decisions
Puts Us On The Eternal Path Collision
And
Being A Member Of The Famous Religion
Does Not Exempt One From The True Or False Question!
All Men Have To Come To The Matter's Conclusion
Because Riding The Fence Is Also A Decision!

Amazing Grace And Everlasting Glory Are Free!

Amazing Grace!
Redeeming Love!
Joy And Peace
Sent
From The Throne In Heaven Above
Where
Mercy Is Free
And
Faith ... For The Day
Blessed
By The God Eternal
Was Is Has Been Paid For
By The Innocent Lamb's Blood
Which Is The Cleansing Flood!

Salvation!
Forgiveness!
Blessing!
Truth!
Hope!
These Are Amongst The Graces
That From Almighty God's Love
To Us
Does Float
Free
Easy
Swift To Be Assimilated
By The Seeking One Who
Does Not From On The Path
Want To Be Eliminated!

Truth ... In The Inward Parts!
Heaven In Our Eyes!
Ears Hearing The Call To Life
While The King Of Love
Awaits
Our Affirmative Reply!

There Is No Hard Sell!
There Is No Soft Shoe!
There Is Heaven To Be Achieved
And
The Sinful Life To Be Cast Aside
As From Sinning
We Seek Totally
To Be Completely Relieved!

The Fact Of The Matter Is ...

Jesus Christ 
Is 
My Portion
Is Not 
A Popular Notion
Because 
The World Chooses To Walk Upon 
The Own-Way Ocean
Which Treats To Their Need Of Titillating Locomotion!

There May Be Motion In Your Own Ocean
But
It Doesn't Mean
You're Going The Right Way
Since Your Motion May Be A Whirlpool
Because
Your Prayers Are For Things False
About Which You Had No Real Notion! 

The Bottom Line Is ...

Licentiousness May Be Your Preferred Lotion!
Own Way May Be Your Choicest Body Cream!
Ignorance Of Truth May Be Your Custom-Made Perfume 
And
Your Ready Excuses May Always Be Lean
But
Jesus Christ The Lord 
Is 
Always On Duty
And
Truth Is Always Right And Bright
And
One Day
The Book On Your Life Will Be Opened:

Will You
In Almighty God's Heart
Be
A Blessed Delight!?! 

The Facts Are Plain ...

You Have Free Will!
You Have Free Choice!
You Have The Right To Choose The Eternal Blessing!
You Have The Right To Make The Choice That
Will Have You Among The Souls Cast Out
The Souls Forever Lost! 
Have You Counted The Cost!?!

Will You Love The Lord That Loves You!?!
Will You Choose To Take In Him Your Rest
Or
Will You Walk In Your Own Way With The Devil
Doing Wrong And Being Forever Evil!?!

Profit May Be Mammon!
Profit May Be Heavenly Gain!
Profit May Make You Rich In Christ Indeed 
Or Leave You
In Eternal Shame And Unquenchable Flames!

Think About It ...

Eternal Separation From The Holy God Will Be The Lot
Of Those Who Have Not
By Dint Of Surrendered Will To The Lord Christ
Received
Immortality's Eternal Life's Bloom!!
The Flames Will Finally Go Out
When The Sinner Is All Consumed!

Make Your Decision ...

Choose Your Choice
And
Give Your Voice
To That Which Will Cause You To Live 
In Peace 
With Jesus Christ
Our Lord And King Forever
For
There Will Never, Ever, Ever Be
Neither In Heaven Above
Nor Earth Beneath
An Immortalized Glorified Sinner!

Doing Good Requires A Decision!

Sin Bearer
AND
Cause O. Sin
Were ... To Put It Mildly
Polar Opposites!

Cause O. Sin
- To Be Perfectly Honest -
Is A Heel-Biter
AND
A Gross Liar
A No-Card-Necessary Deceiver
AND
An Unrelenting Accuser Of Sin Bearer's Brethren
AND
A Jealous Hater
Who Wanted To Possess
Sin Bearer's Position
In The Throne Of Almighty God
AND
In The Loving Heart Of God's Very Own Faithful Man!
He Is Presently Working Overtime On
All O. Carnal Man! 

Cause O. Sin Had Already Tried Murder
- More Than Once -
To Achieve His Known Stated Goal Of
World Domination
AND
Word Was Already Out That
Since He Had Previously Been Thwarted
In Having His Will Done
That He Was Now As A Raging Lion
Walking About The World
Seeking Whom He May Devour!

Things Do Not At The Present Time Look Good
For Fallen Man!

Don't You Mean To Say
At The First Glance?!

With Patience
Possess Your Soul!

I'm Sorry!
I Should Have Known Better!
Say On!

Cause O. Sin
The Master Manipulator
Purveyor Of Forbidden Fruit
Covetousness
Selfishness
Wilfulness
Waywardness
AND
Every Hateful Emotion
Is Working Overtime 
- Every Time -
In The Race To Get Hopeful Man
To Make Shipwreck Of Jesus Christ's Faith
AND
He Have Set Into Motion
Events
To Cause The Doubtful
The Disbelieving
The Babylonian Wine Drinkers
AND
The Smooth-Thing Hearers
To Walk Run And Live With Him
By Swallowing The Drivel Of
The Known Convenience
AND
Ever Useful Ratchet For The Lost Cause
Comfortable Lie!

How Come They Don't Know
Who For Their Myriad Sins Died!

Wait Upon The Lord!

Begging Your Pardon!!

Sin Is In The Nature
BUT
Doing Good Requires A Decision
AND
Doing Good
AND
Doing Wrong
Are On A Straight Course Collision!

Sinful Self
Eye O'Faith
Broken Cistern
Heart B. Broken
Parched N. Thirsty-Soul
Bread O'Life
Water Ov Salvation
Treading D. Tru-Path
Unaided Efforts
Base Belief
AND
Livvin DeLife
Either Hear The Truth
OR
Speak The Truth Daily
According To Their Character!

They All Either Accept
OR
Make Use Of
The Gifts Of God
As The Token Of God's Faithfulness
To Man
By The Law And The Prophets
The Gospel And The Revelation Spoken!

Some Of Them Love The Living God! 
More Of Them Walk To
AND
With The Fraud
BUT
Not One Of Them Can Deny
The Fact That
Jesus Christ The Righteous
IS
Savior Redeemer Friend
Coming King And Judge
Son Of The Father
AND
Our Lord And God ...!

... And Some
Even Many
Will Fail Of Receiving The Blessed Reward ...!

... But All
- And I Mean Capital ALL -
Will Receive
The Earned Aka Worked For 
Reward!

Oh, Dear!

Now I Understand!
When You Go To Work
You Expect To Be Paid
To A Schedule!
No Work - No Pay!
Work - Pay ...! 

... Or Better Yet
You Don't Get Paid For Just Turning Up FOR Work
You Get Paid According To THE Work
That You See Fit To Do!

Brethren, 
This IS Truly A Problem
AND
Only Jesus Can Solve It
So, Please
Turn OverYour Mind To The Lord
AND  
Give The Heave Ho
To Cause O. Sin
That Unregenerate
Unrepentant
Purveyor Of Perversity
Dastardly Dealer Of Doubt
AND
Merchant Of Misery
Who Dearly Loves To Know
That Soul After Soul
From Heaven
He Keeps Out! 

That Sounds To Me
That It Should Be
Every Single Human's Sole Goal 
In Order To Save His Own Soul! 

Yes, Indeed! 
Work Out Your Own Soul's Salvation
With Fear And Trembling!

Give Cause O. Sin
The "It Is Written!"
Rout!

Indeed!
This Is An Eternal Life
Versus
Eternal Damnation
Decision!

So ...

Whats The Final Word?! 

Jesus Said:

Call On Me
AND
I Will Show You! 
Come Unto Me
AND
Rest!
Seek Ye The Lord!
Endure Temptation!
Trust In The Lord
AND
Be Blessed! 
Take No Thought Of Tomorrow!
The Lord, Your God, Will Provide!
Look Up To The Lord
AND
Find No Offense In Him
AND 
Take  Heed To The Things Of
The Eternal God!

**--**--**--**


It Is Better
To Eat The Green Grass
To Which
The Good Shepherd Leads You
Than To Eat From The Flesh Pots
And
The Dainties Of The Damned Devil!

THE DECALOGUE : For Life And For Judgment






In The Beginning Was The Word
- And The Word Was With GOD -
- And The Word Was GOD -
In Whom Is The Faithful One's Redemption
In Whom Is The Christian's Hope
In Whom Is The Believer's Peace
In Whom Is The Over-comer's Heavenly Reward!

The Word
In His Wisdom
Gave The Words
That Preserve Life!
Four Words
For Our Relationship With Our Father
AND
Six Words By Which To Live With Our Brethren
Without Acrimony And Strife!

The Words Of The Word
To All People
In Total
Make Up The Guide For Life
AND
That Same Word
By Fire On Stone Written
Will Be The Rule For Our Judgment
At The End Of Life's Strife!

There Is A Do
Some Don'ts
AND
One Remember
AND
That One Remember
Will
At The End Of The Age
Be Used To Take Away Our Lives
Because We Won't Dishonor God's Word
AND
With The Damned Devil
Hoot Holler
Falsely Worship
AND
Grossly Play At Pray!

To Make Light Of The Decalogue
Is To Make Light
Of The Living God's Light!
In It Is No Legalism!
No Sting!
Not A Bite!

We Ignore It
At Our Own Soul's Peril!
AND
We Do It To The Dark Lord's Delight!

Let Us Come To Our Own Conclusion!
Let Us Study For Our Own Selves
So That We May Believe
AND
Not Let
Pastor
Pope
Priest
Prince
Parent
Politician
Paramour
False Christ
Nor False Prophet
Determine
AND
Decide
For Us
Where We
Through Eternity's Endless Age
Will Reside!

The Chances
The Choices
The Classes
Are Ever Only Two!
Heaven Or Hell!
Sinner Or Saint!
Saved Or Lost!
Eternal Immortal Life In Heaven With Jesus
OR
Body And Spirit Death aka Eternal Separation From God aka Hell
With You Know Who!

Be An Educated Consumer!
Don't Be A Driven Goat
On A Devil-knotted Rope!

Follow Jesus!
He That Is Meek And Mild!
Follow The Lowly King Jesus
Who For Our Sake
Became A Man-Child!
Follow The Lamb Jesus
Who For Our Sake Was Reviled
AND
Who For Our Blessing
To The Father
Us
He Reconciled!


God Grants Glory!
Satan Secures Slaves!

*********

God Blesses Believers!
Satan's Bamboozles Brains!

*********

God Leads Guides And Carries
AND
Satan Entraps The Unwary!

*********

I Made My Own Choice!

I Am Following The Eternal God!

Now ... CHOOSE:

The Eternal God

OR

The God-Fraud!

Let The Choice Be Your Own!


Exodus 20:1-17 King James Version (KJV)

And God spake all these words, saying,

2 I am the Lord thy God, which have brought thee out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage.

3 Thou shalt have no other gods before me.

4 Thou shalt not make unto thee any graven image, or any likeness of any thing that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth.

5 Thou shalt not bow down thyself to them, nor serve them: for I the Lord thy God am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children unto the third and fourth generation of them that hate me;

6 And shewing mercy unto thousands of them that love me, and keep my commandments.

7 Thou shalt not take the name of the Lord thy God in vain; for the Lord will not hold him guiltless that taketh his name in vain.

8 Remember the Sabbath day, to keep it holy.

9 Six days shalt thou labour, and do all thy work:

10 But the seventh day is the Sabbath of the Lord thy God: in it thou shalt not do any work, thou, nor thy son, nor thy daughter, thy manservant, nor thy maidservant, nor thy cattle, nor thy stranger that is within thy gates:

11 For in six days the Lord made heaven and earth, the sea, and all that in them is, and rested the seventh day: wherefore the Lord blessed the Sabbath day, and hallowed it.

12 Honour thy father and thy mother: that thy days may be long upon the land which the Lord thy God giveth thee.

13 Thou shalt not kill.

14 Thou shalt not commit adultery.

15 Thou shalt not steal.

16 Thou shalt not bear false witness against thy neighbour.

17 Thou shalt not covet thy neighbour's house, thou shalt not covet thy neighbour's wife, nor his manservant, nor his maidservant, nor his ox, nor his ass, nor any thing that is thy neighbour's.
