TELLING THE FUTURE: No Crystal Ball Required!





If I Could Tell The Future
As Some Would Have Us Believe
I Would Purchase Me Stock In
Eternity
AND NOT IN
Beautify Me!
Charm Me!
Nor
Do Whatever I Please!

I Would Look Around
And Take Notice
Of All The Sorrows Caused By
Love Of Self!

I Would Be Very Careful
Not To Play With
A Fallen Cherub
Masquerading As
Solicitous
Best Friend
Provider
Stray Maker
Rub Me Belly 
Treats Are Free
Rascally Satan
Wannabe God Holy!

I Would Make It My Business
To Go  Into The World
AND PREACH
The Gospel Of The Eternal God
Teaching
Pleading
Warning
Every Single Soul
I Would Meet
Telling Them
- With Sincerity Of Heart -
To Look Up
For
The Sky Is About To
- Like A Scroll -
Roll
Wide Apart
Revealing
The Creator God
The Builder By Trade
Coming To Collect
The Pillars 
For The Temple So Fair!

I Would Tell Of The God
To Whom
Confession
AND
Repentance
Make One
For Heaven 
Firmly Stand!

I Would Tell
The World
About The God Of All Grace
Who
For The Love Of Vile Sinners
By The Shedding
Of His Pure Blood
Took
Our Damnable Disgrace
AND
Place!

AND THEN ...

I Would Tell
The World
Of A Love So Profound
That Caused Divinity From Heaven
To Come Down
To The Cruel Earth
To Bless
To Teach
To Pray For
To Care
To Help
To Heal
To Give To All Men
A Solid Reason
Sin
To Forsake!

I Would Tell
Of The Book Ever New!

I Would Tell Of The Holy Spirit
Who Chides And Teaches, Too!

I Would Tell Of The Angels
Who Direct And Protect
AND
The Home
Near God's Throne
AND
Immortality
AND
True Prosperity
AND
Real Life Lived But Never Alone!

I Would Also Tell Of The Grace 
That Will Permit Us
To See God
Face To Face
AND
The Glorious Expanse
That We Will Traverse
At Eternity's Pace!

But ...

I Do Not Need
To Tell The Future
For
The Future
Has Already Been Told To Me
In The Book Inspired Of Heaven
Containing
History In Advance
Where I Can Turn A Page
AND
At A Glance
Know
Which Beast Is Making An Advance
AND
Recognize
How Close
We Are To
The Devil's Last Dance!

I Will Know The Season
- Never The Day -
When 
At The Sound Of The Trumpet
There Will Be
The Catching Away
To Glory
Of Those Who Lived By Faith Alone
Trusting In God Alone
Walking With Endurance
God's Way
To God's Eternal Home!

I Can Say
That None Will Be Left Behind
Hoping
For God To Come Back
And Take Them
- Second Chance Repentant -
To The Heavenly Way
For They Would Have Done Things
Their Own Special Way
And Will Have To
- For Their Own Sins -
Eternally Pay!

I Have No Need To "Create!"
A Spurious Vision Of The Future
For
God Himself
By Christ Himself
Has Crafted The Future
For Me
Which I Will Receive
IF
I Permit
The Holy Spirit
To Direct 
AND
Teach Me!

So, I Can Say ...

No, Thank You!
I have No Need Of A Crystal Ball
For
I Have The Holy Book
Of
The Eternal Living 
Glorious God Of All
AND
In The Reading
I Will Know
How For Temptation To Sin 
Not To Fall!

No!
I Do Not Need A Crystal Ball!

Multiplying By Dividing!







I Suffer No Lack By Giving
For
I Always Get Returns From The Living God
My Giving Multiplies My Receiving
For It Says So In The Eternal God's Eternal Word!

Cast Thy Bread Upon The Water
And It Will Return Unto You
After Many Days!

AND

Give And It Will Come Back To You!

Is What The God Who Sacrificially Loves Us
In His Plain Word Says 
That He Will Unto Us Do!

If The Living God Said It
I Can
Without A Doubt
Believe It
AND
If I Truly Believe
What The Holy Word Says
About Planting Good Seed
I Shall
No Doubt
A Blessed Harvest Receive!

There Is One Caution
That I Must State:
One Does Not Ever Give To Receive
AND
If That Be Our Sole Motivation
Be It Unto All Believers Made Known
That We Are By The Dying Fraud
Dreadfully Deceived!

God Willingly Gave His Only Begotten Son
Who Willingly Gave His Own Life
A Ranson For All
A Free Gift To All
- Which Only A Few Shall Receive -
So That The Fallen Ones' Separation From God
May Be Totally Relieved!

Herein We Have Our Example
Of Giving
All The While Knowing
That The Majority Of  Receivers
Are A Bunch Of Ingrates!

So, Give ...

Even Though We May Not
- Probably Will Not -
Ever Receive Earthly Thanks!
Our Private Giving
Is Recorded By
Rewarded By
The Same God Who Gives Unto Us
Length Of Days
AND
Who Shall Surely All Men
- Grateful Ungrateful -
Unerringly Pay!

Remember ...

God's Prize-Giving aka
Reward Ceremony
AND
Home-Coming Celebration
Is Not Far Distant From Today!

We Have Freely Received
So Let Us Freely Give
Knowing
That Our God Will Bless Us In That Glorious Day
Just As His Inerrant Word Says!



If We Are Blessed
To Have What To Give
Let Us Give
Without Stressing Over
Our Supposed Future Lack By Dividing
For
The Lord Who Blessed Us
Has A Generous Hand
Which Is Likened Unto
A Multi-Fawceted Sieve
And
We Will Always Have Enough
Upon Which To Daily Live!

**********

Pray To God For Enough
For Yourself
AND
A Little Bit More
To Give Unto The Have-Not
AKA
The Poor!

**********

He Who Always Willingly Gives
Always Has Something For Self
And
Something More To Give!

Try It ... And See God Work!
