Almighty God's Blessings: "Please, May I Have Some More!?!"




Giving Is Supplying Our Need 
And 
Forgiving Is Taking Us Back Into The Fold Of Safety 
And
Both Contain Grace, Mercy, Compassion, Kindness
And 
Charity Aka Love 
And
Are The Result Of That Great Gift Of God Called Justification 
Aka Being Made Right With Almighty God 
Through Jesus Christ Our Lord! 

Beloved, 

There Is An Old Expression That Says 
"Don't Look A Gift Horse In Its Mouth!" 
And 
That Was Said Because Your Inspection Might Reveal That 
That Gifted Horse Is Old And Not Altogether "Profitable To You" 
In Your Jaundiced And Even Ungrateful Estimation! 

Dear Ones, 

Jesus Christ, The King, Our Creator, The God Of Glory
Always Only Gives Good And Perfect Gifts To Us
His Purchased-From-Sin Possession! 

We Don't Have To Check Where They Come From
How Long They've Been In Use
How Useful They Will Be To Us
Or If They Are Worth Accepting! 

Our God Is Holy And He Gives, Forgives
Saves, Sets Apart
And 
Seals Us, Willing, For Eternity! 

We Are Greatly Loved Of This Almighty God 
So Let Us Say This Day: 
"Thank You, Lord, For Your Blessings On Me! 
Please, May I Have Some More!?!" 

Let Choose To Give Our Glorious, Gracious, God 
The Gift ... Our Humble Gift ... Of Gratitude Today! 

Peace!

PRAYER: Lord, Please Haste The Glad Day!

Lord,
I Cannot Help But Love You!
You Are To Me The God Holy Faithful Ever True!
You Are My Hope
My Blessing
And
I Want To Live Forever With You!

I Am But A Child
So Please Teach Me
To Walk In the Way Called Truth
And
Please Bless Me With Wisdom's Understanding
So That I Will Be A Blessing To Others
Old And Youth!

Father,
The Ways Of The World Are Most Distressing
Even Though They Are Held Up As So Much Fun
And
Great Play
But I Don't Find It All Amusing
And
I Beseech You
To Help Me Keep It That Way!

Often, Lord
I See A Wandering Brother
Sister
Caught In The Straight Betwixt Two
And
My Heart Goes Out To Them, Father
Because I Know For Sure
That They Are Looking For You!

Bless Me, Lord
With A Blessed Though
Bringing To Promised Remembrance
The Living Word Of Hope Help Healing
That I Have Read And Heard
So That I May Share
With The Longing Soul Caught
In The Wild Goat Herd!

Father,
Satan Is, Indeed, Raging
And
Doing His Dread Work
Enticing The Unwary
To Ultimately Do Upon Them
His Destroying Work
And
I Beg You
I Beseech You
In Jesus Christ's Name
To Make Me An Instrument
For Your Blessed Kingdom
To Point The Way To Salvation
So That Your Holy Spirit
Will Get Another Soul Away
From That Lying One Who Profanes
The Holy Name!

Remember Us, Lord, In Mercy!
Pour Out Upon Us Your Grace
And
Bless Us With Spiritual Ears
To Hear The Holy Spirit Calling Our Name!

Bless Us Also With Hearts Of Flesh
For The Lord Christ To Enter In
And
Sit Down To Sup With Us
As We In Joy
Sup With Him!

Help Us To Ask In Faith For The Outpouring
And
The Indwelling Of The Holy Spirit
And
Help Us Not To Fall, Dear Lord
To The Belief
That Living Faith Has No Work In It!

Teach Us Your Way
And
Help Us To Walk In It!
Lead Us To Green Pasture
With Living Water Running Through It! 

Anoint Our Heads With Oil
And
Let Our Cup Of Blessing Overflow
And
Keep Us Until The Great Day
When Our Redeemer
We Shall Face To Face Know!

Bless You, Lord
We Love You!
Bless You, Lord
We Give You All Adoration And Praise!
Bless You, Lord
For Our Souls' Salvation!
Please Haste The Glad Day
For
In Jesus Christ's Holy Name
We Offer Up Our Worship And Our Humble Prayers!
AMEN.

Don't Blink ... THINK! - Church Service

Have You Ever Been In A "Church" Service
Or
Viewed One
That Made Your Skin Crawl
Or
Made You Feel
- For Lack Of More Fitting Descriptives -
Contaminated
Unclean
Dirty?!


In Said Service
Did You Think To Ask Yourself:


Soul, Who Are They Worshipping?!

Did You Hear Things Said
AND
Wondered:

Why Is No One Objecting?!

AND
Did You Hear
AND
Observe
The Monotonous
Frenzied Repetition
Of Words Phrases
That Sent People Into Raptures
Uncaring
Unknowing
Unmindful
Of What It Is That They Are Doing?!


What Reason
- If Any -
Are You Aware Of
That Requires A Christian Called
To Repeat The Name


"Emmanuel!"


Or Even


"Jesus!"


For Ten (10) Solid Minutes?!


Is Not This Vain Repetition?
Is There A Purpose That Is Being Served?
Is Someone Being Instructed?
Is The Name Being Uttered With Understanding
AND

With Ever New Emotion?
Or
- As Is The Norm With The Heathen -
Is The Utterance A Decided Means
To Achieve A Particular 

AND
Perhaps Even

A Malicious
Nigh Unto
A Malevolent End?

Please Ask Yourself ...

What Is That Unclean Spirit
That Is Being Openly Invited In
AND
Welcomed Into
The Church Of God
AND
Why Is No One Objecting?


God Himself
Calls Us To Reason With Him
Our Maker
Sustainer
Provider
Healer Helper
Our Salvation
Our King
AND
Where Necessary
Our Judge!


So ... 


Why Are We
Intelligent Creatures
Permitting
Unregenerate
Priests Pastors Teachers
To Give The Keys 

To The Hearts Of The People Of God
Into The Hands Of That Vile One

Satan?

Satan Is A Church Goer
Willing
Bona Fide!
He Has No Need To Go 

To Dancing Hells
When Who He Wants
Is Wearing Church Clothes

AND
Styling
Stepping High!


Lazy Thinking In A Christian
Is An Attribute To Be Despised
For It Permits
Unfettered Wickedness
To Bloom
Grow
AND
God Forbid
Thrive!


Know What It Is You Are Doing
AND

Why
- In God's Name -
It Is Being Done
AND
If The Answer
Contains Not A 


"Thus Saith The Lord!"

People!
Be Smart!
Cut And Run!

Don't - To Your Self - Lie!

No Idiot Children Will Be In Heaven!
All There Will Have Said:


Satan, Nay!

Jesus, Yeah!



Having Made The Bold Decision Freely
AND
Not By Coerced Descent
Into A Hypnotized Frenzy!


Watch Where You Pray!
Watch With Whom You Play?!

AND
Be Mindful Of What You Say
When You Go
To God In Prayer!


You Cannot Come To God
AND
Tell Him That
You Want
Desire
To Bear His Blessed Name

AND
Stress To Him That
You Will Provide
Your Own Food
(Your Own "Holy" Word)

AND
Your Own Clothing
(Your Own Character)

AND
Think
That You Shall Escape
The Lake Of Fire!


The Way Is Clear
Either - Or
Broad Way
Or
Straight Way Narrow Path!
There Is No Good Way Marked:


"Way Of Man!"


Aka Way Of Perishable Cloth
For That Way Is Always
Always
The Broad Way Of The Lost!


Get A Grip On The Holy God
Through Jesus The Christ
On
The Way Of The Cross
AND
Give Man's Traditional Emotionalism
The "Not-For-Me" Toss!



Worship The Almighty God
In Spirit
And
In Truth!

When Recognition Truly Dawns ... In Prayer!

A Prayer Is The Cry Of The Soul
AND
Because The Holy Spirit
Is There To Bless And Teach
And
Groan In Intercession
In Our Stead
And Chide And Guide
We Learn ... Even As We Pray!


I Was Saying My Prayers One Morning ...


Lord,
Please Grant The Officers
Wisdom And Understanding
And
Protection And Direction
And
Grant To The Soul In Mortal Distress
Care And Comfort
And
Help And Healing
All Accordingly To Your Will
And
In Your Way!
Pity Us All, Lord
And
Do For Us What None
But
A Holy God Can Do! ...


And ... I Stopped

For I
In That Short Moment
Honestly Realized
AND
Recognized Suddenly
AND
Appreciated Thoroughly
That There Is
No Other Being aka Satan
Wannabe God
Mere Man
False God
Idol
Holy Man
Man Thinking Himself As God
Priest Acting As If He Is God
That Can Deliver On The Stated Request
For Blessings
As I Had Just Put Forth
In My Prayer!

How Shocked
Totally Not Shocked
I Am!

Grace And Mercy
Are Met Together
In Our Father's Hands!

Pitying Love
AND
Gentle Caring
Reigns Down Upon Us
From Grand Heaven Above!

Peace And Rest
Combine To Give Us
Respite
From The World
AND
Truth And Light
Combine To Give Us
Ammunition
With Which To Fight The Churl!

Sanctification
Justification
Sustenance
AND
Provision, Too
All Come From The Heart
Of Him Who Made Us
Along With
Forgiveness
Salvation
AND
Redemption, True!

And ...

To Top It All Off
Our Creator
AND
Redeemer
Designates Himself
Our Very Best Friend
The Friend Who Sticks Closer Than Any Brother
The Friend Who Can Our Sickness Unto Death Mend
AND
Raise Us Unto Eternal Life
In The Day
That The End Of The Beginning Shall Cease
AND
The Beginning Of No End
Unto Us
Shall Be Released!

My Heart
In This Is Well Satisfied
AND
So I Say ...


Lord,
Thank You
For Truly Showing Us
Who Is The Real God!

Thank You
For Truly Exposing To Us
Who Is
The Real God-Fraud!

Praise You, Lord
For Being Holy
And
Faithful
And
The Real Father
And
The Eternal God
That No One Can Truly Challenge
Or Ask
Why
How
What For
Do You Do
What You Do?!

Thank You, God
For Being You
For We Know That
Trusting You
Will See Us To The Great Day
When The Celebration Of New Life
Starts ... In Truth!

Bless You, Lord!
We Love You
And
In Jesus Christ's Holy Name
We, Committed, Plea And Stand!
AMEN.

FAITH & BELIEF: Gods, Gods, Everywhere?!?!







The Conversation Was Pleasant!
The Participants 
- From Various Countries, Ethnicities and Belief Systems -  
Had All Been Respectful and Polite
When,  Suddenly - Out of Left Field -
One Determined Voice
Voiced That Statement-Question Sure To Start "The Nasty Fight!"

I Don't Believe In God!

AND ...

The Flood Gates Opened!


I Can't Prove That There Is OR Isn't A God!

Nature Is God!

Man Is God!

God Is An Absentee Landlord!
He Made Us and Left Us To Destroy Ourselves!

Satan Is God!


Exclamations of Horror Were Heard,  When ...

A Bold Heavy Lyrical Voice said:


Satan and God Are Equally God!


There Followed Consternation ...


Then ...


In Our Family We Have Several Gods 
But One Is More Important Than All The Others!

Who Decided Which God IS More Important Than All The Others?


Another Voice Stated:


We Worship The Sun, and  The Moon, and The Stars in Their Courses!


The Multiplicity of Gods Is Mind-Boggling!

Wood Gods
Stone Gods
Silver Gods
Golden Gods
Bronze Gods
Clay Gods
Rich Gods
Poor Gods
Tree Gods
Sex Gods
Money Gods
Fertility Gods
Animal Gods
Bird Gods
Reptile Gods
River Gods
Sea Gods
Lake Gods
Air Gods
Fire Gods
Wind Gods
Storm Gods
Peace Gods
War Gods
Evil Gods
Malicious Gods
AND
Gods On Top of Gods and ... More Gods!


There Was A Lull In The Discussion When Timon Called My Name and Said:

We Have Not Heard A Word From You!

And Asked:

How Many Gods Do YOU Have?


I Quietly Replied:

I Have, and Believe In, One God!


Ino Pointed At Me And Said:

You Must Be Very Poor Indeed To Only Have One God!


Everybody Laughed Uproariously!


I Felt Energized And I Stood Up 
And Uttered A Silent Prayer And Began ...


In Your World View I Appear God-Poor BUT

I Believe In The One True Living Holy Eternal God
Who Made The Heavens And This Planet
And Everything On It And In It,
And Everyone Of You, And Me,  Too!

I Cannot See My God!
I Cannot Make The Almighty God!
AND
I Cannot Elevate Nor Denigrate My God!

I Cannot Place My God On A Shelf!

I Cannot Conceive Of The Face Of My God
So I Cannot Make A Statue Or Painting of Him To Venerate
For He Calls That Idolatry
AND
He Deems Such A Sin!

His Holy Word Clearly Says That The
World Cannot Contain Him

AND

Furthermore,

He IS A Consuming Fire
He IS A Spirit
AND
He IS Jealous For The Worship That Belongs Solely To Him

AND

He Says That I Must Worship Him In Spirit
AND
In Truth!

My God Is Holy

AND

My God Is My Shepherd
My Savior
My Redeemer
My Provider
AND
My Sustainer!

He IS Love!
He IS Life!
He IS Light!
He IS The Way
AND
He IS Truth!

He IS My Companion
AND
We Have A Relationship
AND
He IS My Friend
Until My Life Shall End!

He Gives Me His Peace!
He Gives Me His Rest

AND

Direction
Protection
Correction
Hope
Help
AND
He Provides Healing When My Spirit and My Body Are Tried!

When I Sin Against His Holy Name
He Restores My Soul
After I Confess
AND
Repent
Of That Sin!

AND

My God Has Given Me Of His Holy Spirit
To Dwell Within My Heart
To Comfort Me
AND
To Teach Me!

My God's Holy Spirit Also Chides Me
To Do What Is Right
When I Start Leaning
On My Weak And Carnal-Minded Self!

He Leads Me
He Guides Me
He Holds Me
AND
He Carries Me At One And The Same Time!

What Rubbish!

No God Is Anybody's Friend!

Nor Their Companion Either!

Our Gods Take Everything We Own!

Our Gods Don't Give Us Anything!

Our Gods Don't Care What We Do!

No God That I Know
Can Lead, Guide, Hold and Carry You
At One And The Same Time!

True! True!

YOUR GODS Can't Do All Those Things
At One And The Same Time
BUT
My God
God Almighty
God The All Seeing
God The All Knowing
God The Ever Present
MY GOD -  Your God,  Too -  If You Want Him
The True And Living God
The Ancient Of Days
The Eternal God
CAN and DOES
All of That And More
Every Moment of Every Day!

AND ...

Best Of All
He Sent His Only Begotten Son
The Darling Of Heaven
To This Planet
To Die For My Sin
AND
YOURS,  TOO!

AND ...

His Son, Jesus Christ - The Righteous
Conquered Sin,  Death And The Grave
AND
Is Alive 
AND
Has Prepared A Home For Me In Heaven!
All Of You Can Receive That Blessing As Well!

There Was A Sudden - Deathly - Quiet In The Room!

AND, THEN ...

The Voice That Started It All
Quietly, And Earnestly, Asked:

Would You Tell Us More About This Amazing and 
Giving God That IS Yours and 
How We May Know Him?

YES! Yes!

Teach Us!

Please Do! 






Dear Ones:

People all around The World are dying to hear The Word of God!

Please share The Truth, The Good News, so that another Heart may be Blessed of God.

Remember, as The Apostle Paul said: "I Planted, Apollos Watered; but God Giveth The Increase!" 1 Corinthians 3:6

Just Share, and Move Along, for God, Himself Promised   




May The Blessings and Bounties of Heaven Be Yours,

Betty

Happy Sabbath + God Gave Me His Blessed Assurance + Prayer: Thank You, Lord





God Gave Me His Assurance
He said He'd always be Mine
My Heart is now Overflowing
Because He is Ever Loving, Faithful and Kind!

God Wrote Out For Me His Promise
He signed it in Jesus' Blood
He sends Me Showers of Blessings
Which flow ever like a rushing Great Flood!

God Gave Me His Assurance
That Sin has a waiting Just Fate
And if I walk in Christ's Righteousness
I won't Suffer The Bold Sinner's Fate!

I am to Do Good to All Men
I must Continually Pray and Give Praise
I must Trust in God's Goodness
And never His Holy Name denigrate!

I Trust in God's Blessed Assurance
And I took Me The Great Plunge
Into The Watery Grave of Baptism
And I Emerged Thoroughly Cleansed by The Blood!

Holy Spirit has Taken Up Residence
And is Guarding My Heart's Gate
I now walk Me in The Right Way
For with Heaven I have a Going Into The House Date!


Thank You, Lord, for Hearing
Thank You, Lord, for Healing
Thank You, Lord, for The Helping Hand
That is Guiding my footsteps to My New Home
On The Holy Hill of Zion
Where Peace and Rest are Declared
Where Love and Life are Eternal
Where Fear and Night cannot appear
Where Death and Hell have no standing
Where The Holy God is Commanding
And You are in My Eyesight clear.
Amen
