If A Dumb Animal Can Understand The Assignment, So Can We!




We Can Learn A Lot From A Dog! 

Beloved, 

If You Have Ever Seen One Of Those News Reports 
About An Obedient And Faithful Dog Aka Man's Best Friend 
Who We Know Has Been Abandoned, Deserted
But Who Had Been Instructed To Wait For Its Master 
And
Will Not Leave Its Post Of Duty 
Even Though Others Understand Its Situation 
And 
Are Trying To Help The Poor Dear
We, Committed Christians, Should Have 
An "Aha!" Moment! 

Dear Ones, 

If A Dumb Animal Can Understand The Assignment
So Can We! 

We Are To Wait ... Patiently ... On The Lord Jesus 
With The Full Expectancy Of The Fore-Knowledge That 
He Favors Us 
And
Will Call Unto Us
Hear Us, Help Us, Heal Us
Feed Us, Protect Us
Direct Us, Correct Us
Deliver Us, Bless Us, Teach Us 
And
In The Glad Day
Collect Us Whom He Has Already Redeemed 
From Death, The Grave 
And 
The Damnation That Is Hell
To Carry Us Home! 

King David Knew The Depth Of Despair 
And
He Experienced The Height Of The Euphoria That 
Comes When One Finally Experiences
Contentment In And With Christ 
When We Touch Him Aka Home By Faith
And
Look Forward With Unabashed Joy 
To The Fulfillment Of The Blessed Hope
The Eternity Of Peace That 
Is 
Life With Our Dear Savior 
In The Land Of Love
The Home Of The Forever Blessed! 

Got Questions!?! 

Jesus Christ Is Always The Answer: 
Keep Your Hope In Him Alive! 

Peace!

Act ... To Be Attached!




King David Said: 

"The Lord Is My Shepherd
I Shall Not Want!" 


The Gospel Song Writer Ralph Carmichael Said: 

"Because The Lord Is My Shepherd
I Have Everything That I Need!" 


Two Statements Of Fact 
Thousands Of Years Apart 
Delineating The Faith And Belief In The One God 
In The Person Of Jesus Christ The Lord
The Creator, Provider, Director, Savior, Deliverer 
Who Loves His Sheep Totally
Without Inhibition
And 
Personally
To The Satisfaction Of The Soul! 

Beloved, 

Do You Co-Sign Aka Agree With And Approve Of 
The Bold Sentiment Expressed!?! 

Does Your Daily Life Say To Others 
And 
Show To Your Keenly Watching Observers That 
You Surely Do Have Confidence In Christ 
And 
Am Not Dismayed By Not Receiving 
What You "Knew In Your Heart Of Hearts!" 
- Whatever That Means - 
That You Had To Have 
But 
Did Not Receive?!" 

Is Your Faith Fickle Or Firm!?! 
Is Your Confidence Cement Or Cosmetic!?! 
Is Your Love Lax Or Latched!?! 

Dear Ones, 

We Have To Believe To Receive: 
We Have To Act To Be Attached! 

We Have To Pray 
If 
We Don't Want To Fall Prey 
To The Lies And Sophistries Of The Devil 
Who Can Sell Ice To An Eskimo 
If
That Eskimo Does Not Solidly Know Of 
And 
Understand The Truth About The Ground
- The Icy Ground - 
Upon Which He Stands! 

Are You Growing Up In The Lord!?! 

Do You Remember That 
"Thus Saith The Lord!" 
Is 
Lie And Liar Repellant 
And 
Fraud Eraser!?! 

Know Your God 
And 
Stick To Your Goal: 
Heaven With Christ! 

We Have To Believe Him Here 
To Belong With Him There! 

Peace!

Choose The Good Part: Peace ... Perfect Peace!

 


King David Uttered The Words 

"I Will Both Lay Me Down In Peace, And Sleep; 
For Thou, Lord, Only 
Makest Me To Dwell In Safety!" 

And
The Prophet Isaiah Followed Him 
By Saying What Kind Of Peace 
And
Why That Peace Was Assured ... Guaranteed! 

Beloved, 

If We Desire The Blessings Of The Eternal God
We Must Be Diligent 
To Sincerely Do Exactly What He Lovingly Asks Of Us! 

When Your Mind Is Stayed Upon Someone
It Is Because There Is Love
A Loving, Committed, Reciprocal Relationship 
Between Consenting Partners 
Who Care About Each Other
And 
Trust The Words "Until Death!" 
Even As They Walk The Lonesome Road Alone-Together! 

Dear Ones, 

Our Trust In The Lord Jesus Christ 
Causes Us To Become Rich ... Without Sorrow! 

The Eternal God's Love For Us 
Brings With It Neither Shame Nor Disappointment 
And
Because It Is A Love That Will Not Let Us Go
It Will ... Paradoxically 
Be A Love That Will Not Force Us To Stay Put! 

The Love Of God 
Is 
The Anchor For Our Souls 
And
Our Trust In God 
Gives Us The Wings And Eyesight Of The Eagle 
And
The Endurance Of The Ox Of The Protected Stall! 

Let Us This Day Think On Him Who Thinks On Us 
Who Are The Apple Of His All-Seeing, Unwearied, Eye! 

Jesus Christ Saves!

Please Trust And Obey 
And 
Be Forever Happy And Blessed! 

Stay Put 
Aka Stay Rooted And Grounded
Steadfast And Sure 
In The Love Of The Lord Christ: 
Rest Your Weary Soul In Him! 

Peace!

Dare To Be Like King David!





We Are Asking Our God To Create A Clean Heart Within Us 
Because 
Our Present Heart Is Dirty, Unclean! 

We Are Asking To Have A Renewed Right Spirit Placed Within Us 
Because 
We Have Been Operating With A Wrong, Ungodly, Spirit That 
Is 
Worn And Torn By An Ill-Spent Life! 

We Are Asking The Lord Not To Cast Us Away From His Presence
And 
Not To Take Away His Holy Spirit From Us 
Because 
Our Behavior Is So Egregious
Outrageous And Obnoxious, That 
It Is Offensive To The Holy One 

... And ... 

Warrants The Sternest Condemnation 
Which Is The Taking Away Of The Holy Spirit 
Who Grants Us Peace
And 
Blesses Us With Rest And Refreshing! 

Beloved, 

Never, Ever, Place Yourself Outside Of 
The Correcting, Checking, Guiding Influence Of 
The Lord God Almighty! 

King Saul Became Too Big For His Britches 
And 
He Paid The Ultimate Price 
Aka The Lord Rejected His Pleas For Comfort And Aid! 

Lacking The Secure Anchor For His Soul
Saul Visited The Accursed Witch At Endor
And 
After Playing On Satan's Enchanted Ground
He Finally Killed Himself 
Because 
He Had No Hope ... No Future! 

King Saul Had Maliciously Written 
And 
Arrogantly Starred In His Own Demon-Inspired Movie 
But 
Regretted His Own Prideful Performance 
In The Day Called Too Late! 

It Is Wise To Be Teachable: 
Humbly Accept Godly Correction
Confess Your Known Sin
And 
Bless God! 
Be As King David! 

Peace!

Oh, How He Loves You And Me!



Psalm 18:1-2 - KJV - Bible verse of the day - DailyVerses.net


When We Truly ... Actively ... Intimately Know The Lord 
- Whom We All Say That We Love -
We Can With Uncompromising, Unshakeable, Faith 
And 
Conviction 
Live So As To Be Able To Tell Another Who He Is
Why We Serve Him
What He Says And Does For All Of Us
- And Is Doing For Each Of Us Personally -
Where He Can Be Found
How To Personally Get To Him 
And 
How To Get To Know Him For Oneself
And 
Oh, So Much More! 

We Speak Continually Of The Things 
And 
The People Whom We Love! 
We Touch Them Constantly! 
We Speak Of Them Excitedly! 
We Go To Sleep With Them In Our Thoughts! 
We Awaken With Their Name On Our Tongues! 
Some People Of Our Association May Even Ask 
If We Cannot Speak About Anything Else! 
Some May Even Say That We Have That Person Or Thing On The Brain
And
Unsurprised
Unoffended
Unashamed
We Smile With Pleasure ... Real Pleasure ... At The Thought 
And 
Proceed To Either Talk About
Work For
Or Do Something With Or For Our Love 
Whom We Totally Cherish 
And 
Adore 
And 
Can't Live Without! 

Beloved, 

Let Us Fix Our Affections
- Just As King David Did - 
On The Lord Jesus 
So That We May Be Rooted 
And 
Grounded In Him Who Is
The Rock Of Refuge
The Shepherd Of Rest
The Joy Of Every Man 

And

Joyfully Tell It Lovingly To A Brother, A Sister
Who Needs To Personally Know Him Now! 

Oh, How He Loves You And Me ... 

Our Love For Our Jesus Christ
Should Be Bubbling Over
And
Into Every Facet Of Lives
Because
We Should Be Actively In The Process Of
Being Consumed By The Heavenly Love Of
The Lover Of Our Purchased Souls
Our Creator
The God Who Makes Dead Men Live
To Live Again ... And Forever! 

Perfect Peace For Us Is In Him!

Jesus Christ
Our High Priest
Our Savior
Our Redeemer
Our Forever Friend
The Lover Of Our Souls
Is In Heaven
Interceding For Each One Of Us!

SANCTIFICATION: The Life-Long Work ... And Personal Lots Of Land


We Are Dearly Loved By Our Creator-God
And
All The Heavenly Intelligences
And
We Are Devilishly Hated By The Satan ... The Adversary
And
All Of His Fallen-Angel Demonic Force! 

We Need To Know With Whom It Is That We Cast Our Lot
Aka Gain Our Fortune! 

Indeed, Beloved!
Look No Further Than The Word Of Good King David
- Who Made His Calling And Election Sure -
To See How It Is Done! 
He Knew His God
And
He Made His Public Declaration!

The Day Is Soon Coming 
When We All Must Make Public Our Own Declaration
Stating Clearly That It Is With The Lord Christ That 
We Faithfully Choose To Stand Up
And
To Be Counted For His Living Kingdom!

Hear, Hear!
The Handwriting Is Already On "The Wall!"


Psalm 16:5 The LORD is the portion of my inheritance and of my cup ...


Brethren,

When You Know Who Is Your Savior
You Will Surely Recognize Who Is Your Adversary!

Satan Is The Liar
The Thief
And 
The Destroyer-Murderer! 

Jesus Christ Is The Truth,
The Provider
And 
The Life Giver-Sustainer! 
Let's Learn The Difference
And 
Act Accordingly! 

Please Remember This ... 

All Who Turn From Satan Unto The Lord 
With Humble Confession Of Sin
And 
With Repentance
Have Forgiveness For Sin 
And 
Cleansing From Unrighteousness! 

We Who Are Forgiven 
Have A Sure Inheritance In The Land Of The Blessed
A Lot ... A Personal Parcel Of Ground
As Is Promised To Those Who Are Sanctified
Aka Set Apart For The Lord's Holy Use! 

Beloved, 

Please Do Not Be Fooled! 
Don't Fool Yourself
And
Don't Let Anyone Fool You!

Sanctification 
Is 
A Life-Long Work
And 
Only Those Who Endure All Things For The Lord
Until The Day Of Death 
Or The Lord Christ Comes For His Children
Shall Possess The Land ... Their Inheritance! 

Talking About Being Sanctified 
Is 
Cheap And Easy
And 
Doesn't Cost Anything! 
Living In Obedience
And 
With Enduring Faith, However
Is 
Going To Be Expensive  ... Hard 
And 
Painful: Do Not Fear! 

Jesus Christ Belongs To Us
And
We Belong To Him!
Our Jesus Christ 
Is 
The Great Physician 
And
He Owns Everything In The Cosmos
So We've Got Means! 

Please Confidently Place Your Life In Jesus' Holy Hands
And 
Please Hold Out Your Cup For His Blessings 
By Exercising Your Daily Gift Of Faith! 

Please Choose To Believe The Word Of The Lord
And 
Confidently Choose To Trust The Lord's Sacrificial Love For You
And 
Dare To Be Eternally Blessed! 

Peace Be Upon Us All
In The Holy Name Of The Lord Jesus Christ
As He Blesses Us All ... By His Sweet Spirit
The Holy Spirit Of Truth
As We Make Our Pilgrim Journey!

Let's Think About ... Home!

AMEN!!!

IMPULSIVE LIVING: Explicit Faith

Just As Impulsive Buying 
Can Get You Into Debt Higher And Higher
So Can Impulsive Living 
Land You In Damnation's Lake
Burning With Brimstone And Fire!

Every Human 
Every Christian ... Of Faith Great Or Small
Started His Journey With The Sin Nature
Compliments Of 
Adam And Eve's Fall From Grace Sufficient
To Of Needing Mercy Free
And That, Beloved
Means Me And Thee!

We Must Not Be By Impulse Driven
For We Have A Sure Word
By The Lord Of Live Given
And
All We Need To Do 
Is 
To Believe And Obey
And 
Walk In The Light Of Life
Trusting God Every Day
And
Always In All Ways!

That's Easy For You To Say! 

It Sure Is! 
King David Said It First! 
Listen To What He Says
And
Remember That The Lord Kept All Of His Word To David
In The Person ... In The Incarnation Of 
Our Very Own Jesus Christ!



Pin on King James Bible Verses


The Word Of The Lord 
Is Not 
"Comfort For Fools!" 

The Word ... The Living Word
Is 
A Negotiable Instrument 
"Cash Money"
Good In Every Situation, Stage, And Phase Of Life 
For Us Who Choose To Believe That 
Jesus Christ Is Real 
And That 
He Loves Us Sacrificially, Personally
Intimately 
And 
Eternally! 

The Lord Cannot Lie ... Nor Does His Word
And 
I Encourage Us To Get To Know The Word That 
Speaks Life
Provides A Reason To Get Out Of Bed Each Day
Gives Hope For A Future With An Expected End In Glory
And 
Points The Way Home To The Father ... Our Father! 

We Are Christians 
And 
We Have The Right ... And The Privilege 
To Boldly Appear Before The Throne Of Grace 
With The Unfailing Word Of God 
To Present To Him To Gain Approval For Our Requests 
For His Comfort, Aid, Provision, And Protection
And 
Also As The Reason For Giving Him Worshipful Praise 
And 
Grateful Thanks! 

The Lord Must Honor His Word To Us That 
Causes Us To Believe, Trust, Hope 
And 
Wait On Him: 
Our Obedience To His Word ... By Doing His Will 
Guarantees Our Blessing! 

Beloved, 

This Is The One Time When 
"Throwing" A Person's Word Back In Their Face 
Is 
A Good Thing! 
Be Bold, Be Brave ... Believe
And 
Humbly Ask The Lord To Deliver For You! 

Stand On The Sure Promises Of God: 
He Is Faithful So Dare To Prove It!

Guard Your Thoughts, Watch Your Words, And Be Cautious In Your Deeds!

The Days Are Evil
And
All I'm Saying To You 
Is 
Don't Be MAD!

Mad!?!
What Have I Got To Be Mad About!?!
I Am Not MAD!

You Misunderstand Me!

Huh!?!
What Are You Talking About!?!

Dencita, I Am Not Talking About Mad
As In Angry, Upset, Ticked Off, Incensed!
I'm Speaking About Miriam, Aaron And David!

Pardon My French
But What De Bird Does Miriam
Aaron And David Have To Do With Me!?!
We Only Sit In The Same Class 
And We Don't Even Socialize!

Again, Dencita, You Misunderstand Me!

Maybe If You Were Making Sense
I Would Readily Understand!

Okay, Okay!
Sheath Your Blade!

Oh, Dear! I'm Sorry!
Please Tell Me What You Mean!

Very Well!
I Am Speaking About
Prophet Miriam
Prophet High Priest Aaron
And
Shepherd, Sweet Psalmist, Warrior, Prophet, King, David!

What On Earth Are You Getting At Major Payne!?!

What I'm Getting At Dencita Dansing-Round Is Sin!
Sin By Thought, Word And Deed!

Oookay! 
You've Got My Full Attention!

Miriam And Aaron Thought Of
And
Spoke Evil Against Their Brother
The Nation's General
Almighty God's Man Of Business
Their Younger Brother, Moses
And
Did Evil In The Sight Of The Holy God!

David Thought, Spoke, And Performed Evil
Against Both Bathsheba And Her Husband
His Friend, Uriah The Hittite! 

What A Man Thinks He Speaks!
What A Man Speaks
He Ultimately Performs
And
That Is How We Sin
By Thought, Word And Deed
And
Offend The Living God!

And

Lest You Forget
The Offense Is A Bill
And
The Bill Must Be Paid
In Your Skin
And
With Your Soul!
The Lord Does Not Accept Perishable Gold!

Oh, Dear!


Ephesians 5:15-16
Is
A Decidedly Serious Word Of Caution
To All Of Us Who Desire 
The White Robe Of Christ's Righteousness
The Gold Crown Of Glory
The Victor's Palm
And
Jesus Christ's Words Of Commendation: 


"Well Done
Good And Faithful Servant!"


Ephesians 5:15-16 by mvcquotes on DeviantArt



Work Out
Your Own Soul's Salvation
With Godly Fear
And Trembling!

To Live Circumspectly 
Is 
To Live Carefully Cautious In Both Words And Actions 
In Your Desire To Avoid Known-Bad Consequences 
Aka You Want To Get Home To Be With Jesus 
So You Will Avoid Doing Anything At All 
Which Will Transport You To Hell! 

The Times Are Evil Indeed 
Because 
Truth Is Cast Down In The Street
Sweet Things Are Bitter
Lies Are Called Truth
And 
Good Things Are Called Evil
And 
Evil Is Become Good! 

Even Fools
- Who Say There Is No God -
Are "Wise" In Their Conceit 
And 
Their Loud Voices Are Carrying 
The Unweary Away To Damnation! 

Beloved, 

All Of The Word Of God 
Is 
To Teach Us, Warn Us, Feed Us
And 
Lead Us Into All Truth 
Which Will Guide Us Home To Be With Him Who 
I
The Truth! 

Jesus Christ 
Is 
Also Our Light 
And 
He Is Our Life
And 
He Has Made The Way To The Father's Home Plain 
For Us To See And To Navigate! 

Evil Has No Future 
So Trust The Truth That Cannot Die! 
See To It That You Do Good Always 
And 
By Almighty God's Great Grace 
You Shall Arrive Safely In The Eternal Home 
At The Time Appointed! 

Guard Your Thoughts ... Guard Your Heart
Watch Your Words 
Be Cautious In Your Deeds
Be Enduringly Faithful
Pray Penitentially
Obey The Word Diligently
And 
Hold On To Your Hope In Jesus Christ! 
Business As Usual 
Is 
No Longer An Option!

Good Eats!

... And These, Then, Are Your Options:

  • Satan Versus Christ
  • Truth Versus Error
  • Disobedience Versus Obedience
  • Love Versus Loyalty

Where, Brethren, Do You Stand!?!
Do You Love The Lord ... Enough
To Choose Death Over Disobedience!?!

The Punishment Of Man
Is
A Strange Act For The Living God
Because
He Takes No Pleasure In The Death Of The Wicked!

The Lord God, Himself
Is
Long-Suffering, Patient, Kind
Merciful
And
Gracious
And 
Enormously Forgiving
Because
He Desires To Give To Each Man ... Obedient
The Key To The Door Of
The House Of Eternal Living!

The Keys Are Already Cut!
The Deposit To Pick Up A Personal Key
Is
Willing, Ready, Faithful Obedience!

To Save Some Of Us
From Those Thoroughly Immersed In Sin
Whose Acts Would Ruin ... Destroy A Nation
- The Hardened In Sin -
Those Unrepentant, Willful, Wicked, Are Destroyed
So That Those Running Toward Sin
May Be Softened, Checked ... Corrected
By Seeing That Sinning Is No Living
And
Return To The Lord God Almighty
In Whom
From Whom
Through Whom
They Get Their Life For Daily Living!

The Charge ...

Guilty As Sin!
Guilty Of Sin!


Their Cup Of Iniquity Is Filled Up
And
Time For The Execution Of The Gross Wicked
Who See No Goodness In The Living God
But
Take Pleasure In The Benighting Ways Of Satan
- Our Soul's Adversary -
Is
Nearing Here, Hear!

The Guilty Are Never Cleared
But
The Great Judge Of All Living
Wills To Save Those 
Who Will To Follow His Truth ... As Given!

Think Achan!
Think King Ahab!
Think Queen Jezebel!
Think Queen Athaliah!
Think King Saul
And
Then Think Of King David!

Are You ... Am I
Are We Willing To Be People After The Lord's Own Heart!?!

Think On This Thing ...

Is The Lord Jesus Christ High ... Numero Uno
On Your List Of Priorities!?!
Is Truth Your Way!?!
Is Light Your Life!?!
Is Your Life Lost To The Dying World
And
Found Prospering In King Jesus!?!




Let Us Ponder These Words
In The Week Ahead:




Brethren, Beloved

To Taste, We Must Touch! 
To Fear, We Must Believe! 
To Trust, We Must Have Faith! 
To Exalt, We Must Have Hope! 
To Be Blessed
We Must Have Palms ... Hearts, Minds 
Cupped ... Opened ... To Receive The Outpouring! 

To Eternally Experience 
The Goodness Of The Lord Christ
We ... You And I
Must Be In A Committed Relationship 
With Him ... Here And Now! 

Are Your Eyes Open!?! 

Have You Purchased The Eye Salve From The Savior!?!
Is Your Carnal Palate Being Daily Cleansed 
By The Meat Of The Living Word
The Bread Of Heaven
The Water Of Life!?!

Hard Questions ...


Is Your Heart Still Hard
Or Have You Acquired The Offered Heart Of Flesh
From Jesus Christ The Lord!?! 
Where Are You Making Up Your Eternal Bed!?!

Soft Answers ...

Only Jesus Christ Saves The Soul From
The Second Death
And
Only Jesus Christ Satisfies Our Hungering Souls!
I Encourage Us All To Feast!
