PRAYING: Delight Thyself Also





When You Have A Need
What Do You Do!?!

Pray, Of Course!

When You Have A Desire
What Do You Do!?!

Pray, Of Course!

So, Should I Conclude From This
That For All That We Want
We Should Approach Almighty God!?!

Yes ... And No!

Come On!
I Thought You Were A Godly Man!?!

I Am
And
I Desire To Be Wise Unto Soul Salvation!

What Do You Mean!?!

Friend,
Anything That I Believe That I Need
Think That I Want
Or Heartfelt, Desire
If It Cannot Be Righteously Framed
And
Humbly Presented Before The Holy God
By The Professing Godly Faithful Person
Without Affront To The Character Of The Eternal
Then ... It Cannot Be Formulated As Prayer!

To Do So Will Be Presumption On Our Part
And
Presumption Is A Sin
And
All Sin Is Lawlessness
And
Unless You Repent
You Shall Earn Sin's Wages
And
You Shall, In Your Known Sin, Die!

Furthermore
It Is Also Disrespectful To The Loving Father
Who Is Raising You Right
And
In Whose Favor ... Supposedly
You Truly Delight!

Look At It This Way ...

Would You ... In Godly Fear
Looking Toward The Consummation Of Your Joy 
In Jesus Christ The Righteous
Go To Our Father Who Resides In Heaven
- Who Has The Earth For His Footstool
And Clouds Of Mighty Angels Excelling In Strength
As His Personal Chariots -
With The Confidence Of The Faithful Just
And
Boldly Stand Before His Throne Of Available Grace
Where He Blessed You With His Free Mercy
And 
In Supreme, Unabashed, Confidence Say:


Father, Beloved
You Made Me A Man
And Against Your Will
I Am In Consuming Love With A Gorgeous Man
And I Need Help To Kill My Wife
So That He And I Can Be Together!
I Also Need Assistance To Rob The Local Bank
To Purchase A Joy-House For Us
And To Refurbish The House That I, Covetous, Want
That Belongs To My God-Fearing Neighbor!
I Also Need Direction 

On How To Construct An Altar Of Worship
And An Effigy Of Lust To His Honor 

That I May Bow Before It In Adulation On The Sunday-Sabbath
Even As I Bare False Witness Against His Faithful Wife
And Make You Jealous 

And Willingly, Wittingly, Wantonly
Dishonor You!
I Know This Breaks All Your Commandments
But I Need It To Feel Complete
So Give Me My Desire
And I Will Ever Be Grateful For The Treat!



Lord, Have Mercy!
I'm Not Claiming That!
YOU Would Have Had To Have Lost Your Tiny Mind
Lost Touch With Reality
Lied To Yourself
Signed Up With Satan
And Are Chain-Smoking Magic Mushrooms
While Sniffing Angel Dust
And Eating Marijuana Brownies 
Each Weighing A Half Pound!!
No Christian Would Ever Do A Thing Like That!

I Believe You Meant To Say
No Converted Regenerated Christian
Would Ever Do That
Because
Things Like This Scenario Are Playing Out 
Amongst The Hired Shepherds
And
The "Believers"
Even As We Speak!

You Lie!

I Speak The Truth!!
Check The Newspapers
Local And International
Go Back Even As Short As Just Six Months
And
All Will Be Understood!

Lying To Yourself Is Folly!
Besmirching Almighty God's Holy Name
- For Which He Is Jealous -
Is Clearly Asinine
Demonic
Satanic
And
All Who Will This Unholy Path Take
Shall ... With The God-Fake
At The Appointed Time
A Fire And Brimstone Bath
- With Finality -
Undesired
Take!

Brethren,

Let Us Be Honest
And
Speak The Truth For The Age!
No Human Will Stand Before God ... Pardoned
Who, In This Life
Did Not Purge Himself 
- By Almighty God's Grace
Through The Power Of The Holy Spirit -
Of Known Sin's Taint!

Presumption Is A Sin!
Disobedience Is As Witchcraft!
Lies Are Of The Devil
And
Hireling Shepherds Who Mislead Almighty God's Flock
Will Suffer, In Abundance, His Holy Wrath!

There Will Be No Blanket Conversion Of Humanity!
Only Those Who Forsake Sin, Self And Satan
Will Appear Before Christ The King In Peace
And
It Is In Our Best Interests
The Preserved Word Of The Living God 
Daily To Read
To Study 
To Show Ourselves Approved!

We Must Also Pray And Persevere
Being Instant With Pray As The Need Arises
And
Being Constant With Praying
Because
It Is Only Through Prayer That We Will Survive!

I Caution Us All ...

The Name It And Claim It Phenomenon
Is 
Going To Land Many Of Us In Hell!

Just Because You Want Something
Does Not Mean That It Is Fit To Be Presented
Before Our Creator God
Our Savior
Our Redeemer
Our King ... Our Judge!

Be Very Circumspect In What You Take To The Lord!

Our Own Soul's Salvation
Is 
Our Own Responsibility
And
It Behooves Us Well
To Lean ... Heavily
On Jesus Christ The Lord
For, It Is He, Alone
That Purchased Our Pardon
And
Who Has In His Holy Hand
Our Heavenly Reward!

Please Do Not Place The Lord
On The Same Level With Fallible Priests, Pastors
Gurus, Shamans Nor The Popular Pope! 
There Is Not One Among Them
That Can Save Themselves
Nor You, Nor Me
From Being Into The Lake
Burning With Fire And Brimstone
Summarily, At The Appointed Time, Tossed!


Praying Is A Privilege!
Use It Right!

Praying Is A Duty!
It Does The Heart Of Almighty God
Totally, Totally, Delight!

Praying ... With The Right Attitude
Is 
Power For Today
And
Every Day
So, Trust The Lord
And, Again
Pray Aright
- It Is Your Blessing -
And
Let Old Satan
For Your Confessed
And
Repented-Of Known Sin
Rightfully ... At The Appointed Time
Pay!

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

Don't Throw Your Blessing Away!

HIRELING SHEPHERDS: Dereliction Of Duty ...!

When I Was A Child
We Sang:

While Shepherds Watched Their Flocks By Night
All Seated On The Ground
The Angel Of The Lord Came Down
And Said:
"Those Flocks Are Mine!"

It Is Only Now That I Realize That Instead Of Jesting
We Actually Spoke The Truth!
There Was The Bigger Picture
The Weightier Truth Being Revealed
And
We Didn't Then Understand It!
Jesus Christ Paid For Us Sheep Of The Flock!

There Are Many Flocks Being Cared For
And
All Who Remain Faithful Are Headed To The One Fold
Belonging To The Good Shepherd!

Problem Is ...

There Is A Problem With The Hireling Shepherds
Who Are Faithless
Spineless
Deceitful
Lazy
Self-Serving
Greedy For Gain
And
Serving Two Masters!

I Have A Question!

Go Ahead! Ask Away!

If You Cannot See Your Employer
Does It Mean Your Employer Can't See You!?!
If You Are Paying Yourself
Feeding Yourself
Fattening Yourself
And Starving Your Charges
Some Of Them Even To Death
And Without Presently Facing Any Consequences
Does That Mean That Your Employer
The Kind Master
That Good Over-Shepherd
Is Unaware Or Is ... Dead!?!

That's Two Questions ... But I'll Allow The Freebie!

That's Generous Of You ... And I Thank You!

Seriously, Though
Both Jesus Christ And The Apostle Paul
Treated To This Very Issue
Which We, Ourselves, Are Seeing Played Out Today!

The All-Seeing 
All-Knowing
Ever-Present 
Feeling-All Things Holy God
Is 
Not Mocked
Cannot Be Fooled
Keeps Perfect Records
And
Is No Fool!

He Doesn't Sleep
Doesn't Wear Dark Glasses
Doesn't Own Pajamas
Has No Grandchildren Godchildren
Step-Children Nor Bastard Children
Knows Every Last One Of His Children By Name
And
Every Employee In His Service
And
Every Student In The School Of Jesus Christ!

Meticulous Aka Perfect Records Are Kept
And
The Hireling Shepherd Who Doesn't Spare The Flock
And, Instead
Teaches Smooth Things So As Not To Offend Their Sponsors
And
Propagates Fanciful Theories
To Make Personal Disciples Out Of The Lord's Called Children
Is 
Facing A World Of Hurt
Come Reconciliation Of Accounts 
Aka Pay Day Aka The Day Of Reward!

Keeping Two Sets Of Books Won't Help!
Having An Accounting Service Won't Help!
Crying Lack Of Knowledge Won't Help!
Accusing The Lord Won't Help!
And
Making An Excuse Of The Fraud Won't Help!

It's Face The Music Time
And
All The Previously Undisclosed To Public View
Blood On Their Hands
Will Be Shining Like A Beacon!

I Guess That The Phrase
"Do All To The Glory Of God!"Is Lost Upon Such As Those Underlings!

Their Favorite Song Is ... Obviously

Self Before The Savior!
Sinner Before Saint!
I Want Now The Fruits Of My Labor
Because
Future Glory Cannot Compare
To Being Presently Great!


Bite Your Tongue!

Truth Is Truth!
You Don't Have To Like It!
You Must Speak It!
You Must Believe It!
You Must Live It!
Almighty God
The Shepherd Of Rest
Our Hope For Glory To Share
Demands It Of His Faithful Children
But
He Will Never Coerce It
And
That Is Why Deceitful Workers
And
Those Who Call The Lord, Father
But
Are Willful Wayward Children 
Will Be Without Excuse
As Regards The Revealed Will
And
Disclosed Ways Of The Eternal God!

I Suppose That Holding The Fort
Until The Master Appears
Is Considered A Light Thing To Them!

Utterly Disgraceful Behavior Is What I Say!

Bottom Line ...

There Is No Real Profit Gained
By Playing Footsie With The Fraud
And
We Will Do Well To Remember That
All That We Do For The Lord Christ
Is
Exponentially Rewarded!

In That Light
Take What You Want ... And Pay For It
Takes On A Whole New Meaning!

Diligence And Economy 
Must Be The Watch Words Of All Who Labor For The Lord!

As Paul Says:

"... Covet No Man's Silver, Gold Or Apparel!"

Jehovah, Hallelujah! 

The Lord Does Provide!

Final Word ...

Jesus Christ Cares!
Jesus Christ Saves
And 
Jesus Christ Pays!

VESPERS AT THE END OF THE SABBATH: PRAYER: Direct Us, Lord, On The Way To Eternal Life!

I Bow Before You, Father! 
I Come To Worship And To Give Praise
Because It Is My Heart's Desire
To Continue To Be Blessed By

And
Be Of Service To You
The Rest Of My Life's Days!


Lord, 
I Am Not Greedy For Earthly Treasure!
I Am Not Anxious For Economic Power
Nor For Worldwide Fame
But
I Am Desirous Of Reaping The Eternal Benefits Of
Your Sacrificial Gifts Of Love
And
Ultimately To See You Face To Face

And
In Perfect Peace
And
Thankfully Worship You
In The Glorious Courts In Heaven Above!


I Am A Sinner, Saved!
I Am A Child, Loved!
I Am A Student, Eager!
I Am A Servant, Faithful
And
By Jesus Christ's Faith
I Am Holding Out My Hand
Giving Unto You My Stony Carnal Heart
And
Humbly Requesting Of You
The Promised New Heart Of Flesh
That Will Solely Beat For You
And
Lead Me The Way Of Self
Confidently To Depart!


Father, 
I Pray For The Brethren Around The World
Those In Other Flocks Waiting
Listening
For The Words Of Truth And Life In The Lord Christ
In Their Ears To Be Heard!


I Pray, Father
For The Faithful Watchmen On Zion's Wall
That They Will Give The Trumpet
That Certain Sound Which Will Warn The People
Believer Or Nay
That There Is Trouble A-coming
And
To Make Haste And Get Ready!


I Pray, Also, Father
For Those Faithless Shepherds
Those Hirelings Who Strive Only For Filthy Lucre
And
Worldly Acclaim
Who Have No Soul-Love For The Master
Who Live As Watch-Dogs Tame
Soft, Pampered
And

Of Their Own Shadows Afraid
And

Lavishly Licking The Hand Of The Proud One 
Who Encourages Them In Their Shame!

Please, Lord
Open Their Eyes To Their Own Peril
And
To The Peril Of Those Their Charges
That They Are Leading Astray!
Humble Them, Lord
So That Precious Souls May Be Saved!

Father Of The Faithful,
Thou Holy God Of The Saints
I Pray And Beseech You
To Continue To Teach Us
And
Direct Us On The Way To Eternal Life
Guiding And Chiding
Protecting And Correcting
Feeding And Leading
So That We Will Be Blessed
As We, Compliant To Your Holy Will
Seek Ever To Do Your Holy Bidding!


Please Cure Us Of Itching Ears!
Please Give Our Blind Eyes New Sight!
Please Clean Our Tongues
And
Give Unto Us The Gift Of Clean And Holy Speech
And
Bless Us With Willing Feet
Shod To Deliver The Gospel Of Peace

To Those Whom Your Heart Loves!

Father, 
Please Rescue The Perishing
Who Are Not Dying From Lack Of Bread And Water
But Those Who Are Dying For Lack Of Hearing

The True Word Of God
Which Is Light And Life!


Help Us To Turn Away From The Encroaching Darkness!
Help Us To Turn To Jesus Christ The Righteous
The Giver Of True Light And Everlasting Life
And
Bless Us To Share The Good News Of Salvation
So That There Will Be An Abundant Harvest
Your Heart To Delight

In That Great Day!

Please, Lord
Give Unto This Day Our Daily Bread
And
Lead Us Unto Green Pastures
Even As We Pass Through That Valley
Which Has Those Fearful Shadows Of Death!

Hide Us In Your Love!

Father, 
Please Send The Holy Angels To Attend And Protect Us
And
Please Help Us To Guard Our Hearts 
Against The Wiles Of The Evil One
And
Please Help Us To Ever Listen To The Holy Spirit's Promptings 
So That We Will Praise The Holy Jesus
And
Glorify Your Great Name With Love
Because
We Desire To Be Vessels Of Honor!
We Desire To Wear The Garments Of Praise!


Please Accept This Willing Offering, Father
And
Do For Us
What None But The Holy God Can Do
For It Is In Jesus Christ's Blessed Name
That I Humbly Pray! 
AMEN.

Prophets Profiting By Profiteering!





What Does It Profit A Man
To Gain The Whole World
AND, YET

Lose His Own
Unmerchantable Soul?!

What Is The Profit
In Buying The Word Of Blessing Of A Prophet
Unto Whom The Lord God Almighty

Did NOT Give Utterance?!

Wait Up, Bub!
The True Prophet Of God
Will Not, Will Not
Will Never Ever No Way No How
Accept Money
To Give A Good Word From Almighty God!

Far From That
Maaaannnn
You Can't Even Pay
A True Prophet Of The Living God
Not To Give The Word Sent From God
Be It Good Or Bad!

Wow!
Is That Right?!

You'd Better Believe It!

If That Is The Truth
Then You Need To Tell That 
To These Church-Men Charlatans
Cluttering Up The Airwaves
The Internet
The Print Media
AND
The Church Pulpits!

You Ain't Lie!

Do You Know What Amuses Me
Even Though It Ain't Even Close
To Being Funny?!

No, I Don't!
Do Tell!

Waaaiiit!
You Heard That One, Too?!

These Cretins And Charlatans
Get Away With This Brand Of Rubbish
BECAUSE

People Don't Read Their Bibles
ORThey Read Their Bibles Selectively
ORPermit Their Pastors Preachers Teachers
To Tell The Interpretation Of What God
Is Supposed To Have Said
OR
They Use Those Purpose-Driven
Copyrighted Bibles
Specific To Their "Felt Need!"

Didn't The Lord Warn Us About Feelings?!

The Lord Surely Did But ...!

... No More Buts!

Buts Hurt

AND YETA Lot Of People Seem To Be Using
"Buts" For Brains
ANDThey Are Being Fleeced
Being Made Broke ...!

"Thus Saith The Lord!"
To Become AND Remain
The Rule For Our Lives!
Anything Else Comes From ...

... All Together Now ...!

That One Satan Who Is Not Divine!

NEW YEAR'S PRAYER: Thank You, Father, For The Gracious Gift!


Father,
We Thank You For This
The Start Of Another New Year
And
For The Gracious Gift
That Is Called Prayer
And
Beseech You, Most Holy God
To Help Us To Diligently Use It
To Acquire Help For Salvation
And
Against The Machinations Of Satan, The Fraud!

There Are Those Around, Lord
Who Would Not Have Us Strive
For Mastery Over Sin
But Would Have Us Live
As Though We Live
Only To Die
But
We Who Believe
In The Promises By Innocent Blood Given
Are Pleased To Trust The Word Of Him
Who For Our Sins
Was Cruelly Riven!

Grant Us Grace
And Faith And Truth
And Love And Hope
And Peace And Rest
And Continued Blessing
So That In The Day To Come
We Shall Not Be Amongst Those
Who Shall See Your 
"Depart From Me!"
Frown!

Bless Us With The Heart
That Beats For Christ The King!
Bless With The Hope
That Knows That Jesus Christ 
Is Our Everything!
Give Us The Tongue To Sing
Of The Love That Will Not Let Us Go
And
Bless Us
Lord Help Us
In Jesus Christ's Faith
To Daily Grow And Grow!

We Are Children Small
And
Young Servants, Too!
We Are Sojourners
Pilgrims
Looking Unto You
To Lead Us
Guide Us
Provide For
Protect
Defend
And
We Ask You, Lord
To Bless Us To Do The Will!
Bless Also Our Near, Far
And Dear
Other Flock
Brethren!

Thank You, Lord
For Blessings Great And Small!
Thank You, Lord
For Placing On Us The To-Eternal-Life Call!
Thank You, Lord
For Preparing For Us A Heavenly Place
And
Thank You, Lord
For Helping Us To Accept The Living Word
That Will Prevent Us
From Making Shipwreck Of Faith!

Let Mercy Stand With Us!
Let Grace WalkWith Us!
Let Peace Fall Upon Us!
Let Rest Not Stall From Attending Us!
Let Love Grow In Us!
Let Faith Show About Us
And
Let By Us
The Whole World Know
That It Is To Your Holy Kingdom
That Obedient Sheep Gentle
Enduring
Safely Go!

Lord, 
You Are True!
Indeed
Man Is A Liar
And
We Choose Not To Cast Your Truth Down
In The Dirty Street
But Choose
In Jesus Christ's Matchless Name
To Hold It Aloft
Even On Shaking Legs And Callused
Weary
Bound Feet!

Let Your Kingdom Come
Is Our Heart's Cry
As In Jesus Christ Holy Name
We Pray And Plead!
We Love You, Lord!
AMEN.

No Victory Over Sin?!













 


Jesus Is My Shepherd!
I Don't Follow The Goat!
I Take The Time From The Master
AND
I Seek Faithfully
By Standing On The Holy Word
- In This World Of Wickedness -
To Stay Afloat!

Distractions Are All Around Me!
Even Things That Should Never Be In The Public's Face
AND
I Must Endeavor To Stay Focused
So As Not To Become A Christian Disgrace!

Unfaithful Hireling Shepherds
Are Trying To Convince God's People
That There Is No Getting Victory
- In This Life -
Over Sin
AND
I Shake My Head And Ask Wryly:

Who Inspired The "Holy" Word
From Which The False Shepherds Are Teaching?

How Much Are They Being Paid 
To Sell This Offal
That Unsuspecting Believers Are Buying?

"No Victory Over Sin!"
Is A Gross And Satanic Lie
AND
Is One Used By The Devil
To Cause Many With Unconfessed Sin
To Be Lost Forever
When They
Unrepentant
Die!

Jesus Saves The Sinner
Out Of His Sin!
Jesus Will Never Permit 
An Unrepentant Sinner
The Pearly Gates To Enter In!

Please ...

Do Not Listen To The Blind Guides
Who For A Pittance
Are Peddling Bold Lies!
Guard Your Eyes
AND
Your Heart
Out Of Which Comes 
The Actions That Direct Our Lives
AND
Trust The Lord To Be Faithful
To His Promise
To Give To All 
Faithful
Obedient
Enduring
Believers 
New
AND
Eternal Life!

By Beholding
We Are Changed
So ...
Behold The Good Master
Our Lord Jesus Christ
AND
Become Permanently Estranged From The Devil
AND
You Will 
Lead By The Christ Enter Into 
God's Eternal Life!
