VESPERS AT THE END OF THE SABBATH: Light ... And Salvation!

 











Is The Lord Jesus Light That Leads To Salvation 
Or Salvation That Is Light!?! 

Is It Because He Is Light And Salvation That 
We Can Emphatically Say That Jesus Christ The Lord
The Light Of The World
The Creator-God
Our Redeemer-Friend, Our Refuge
The Shepherd Of Our Rest
Him Through Whom We Live And Breathe And Have Our Being
And 
The Joy Of Living
Is 
The Strength Of Our Life!?! 

Beloved, 

Our Lord Jesus Christ Is Not A Man That He Should Lie 
Because 
He Is The Word Of God
The Truth
God Made Flesh Who Dwelt Among Us
And 
Is Even Now With Us Through The Presence Of The Comforter
The Holy Spirit Of Truth
The Holy Spirit Of God! 

Dear Ones, 

We Have No Need To Fear What Fallen Man 
Or The Damned Devil Can Do 
Or Promises To Do To Us Or With Us! 

Jesus Christ The King Has The Answer 
And 
Is The Answer To All Aka Every Last Thing That Concerns Us 
As We Inhabit This Earthly Tabernacle 
Which Is Even Now Being Dissolved! 

Please Hold To The Blessed Lord's Unchanging
Always Sufficient 
Ever Able Everlasting Arms 
Which Cannot Falter While Executing A Mission For Our Salvation
- Nor At All -
Nor Fail At Finishing That Which He Has Started In Our Lives! 

The Great Day Is Coming: 
Please Keep The Holy Faith 
And
Keep Your Eyes On Our Lord Jesus! 

Peace!

VESPERS AT THE END OF THE SABBATH: Win While You Wait On The Lord!




Be Encouraged! 

Since We Choose, Through Grace
By Faith That Works By Love And Purifies The Soul
To Believe That Our Lord Jesus Is The Strength Of Our Lives 

And

Add To It That We Can Do All Things Through Him
We Must Also Keep In The Forefront Of Our Thoughts That 
All The Things Which We Are Choosing To Do 
Must Meet The Right-Doing Test 
And
The Lord's Will, Way, And Timing Test! 

Beloved, 

We, As The Lord's People 
Walking Against The Grain Of The Fabric Of This Dying Word
Do Not Like Technicolor Four-Letter Words 
Aka Foul Language! 

Surprise! 

Most, If Not All Of Us
Consider "Wait!" To Be One Of Those Curse Words
An Inconvenience
A Boil On The Butt Of Our Promised Pleasure! 

Wait Up, Dear One! 

We Are Not Waiting On Humans! 

We Are Waiting Upon 
The Sovereign Lord Of All Creation
The King Of Love
The Loving Shepherd Of Us Who Are 
His Obedient, Trusting, Faithful Sheep! 

With That Being Said
We Should Make It A Point To Consider 
Waiting Upon Our Maker, God, And King 
To Be A Precious Jewel
A Priceless Pearl! 

Let Us Ever Remember That 
Our Awesome God Gives Power To The Faint
And 
To Us Who Lack Might
He Increases Strength! 

This Is A Win While You Wait On The Lord Prize Fight! 

Please Let  Almighty God Be Your All 
And
No Created Being Can Ever Make You Fail Or Fall! 

Walk With
Wait Upon
And 
Wisely Worship Our Lord Christ 
To Be Wonderfully Welcomed Into The Heavenly Home! 

Peace!

THE LORD CHRIST CANNOT LIE + PRAYER: Please Help Us, Father, To Make The Binding-To-Christ Decision!

Image result for psalm 27:1 kjv"





The Man, Woman, Or Child 
Who Chooses Jesus Christ The Lord 
For His Portion In This Life 
Stands As The Majority In Any Battle
In Any War Against Known Sin! 

We Are Never Alone Who Believe, Love
Trust, Obey, Worship 
And 
Diligently Follow The Lord In Faithfulness 
And 
By Humble, Earnest, Prayer! 

The Lord Cannot Lie
And 
He Will Not Fail Us Who Stand Firmly 
In His Personal, Daily, Gift To Us Of Daily Faith
So Let's Faithfully Choose 
To Believe Him At His Holy Word! 
For Our Steadfast And Faithful Endurance 
We Will Be Eternally Blessed! 



PRAYER:

I Trust You, Lord!
I Must Trust You, Lord!
I Am Trusting You, Lord!
I Will Continue To Trust You!
Please Help Me To Trust You
All Day And In All Ways
Because
I Cannot Help Myself!

I Cannot Make Myself Taller!
My Hair Is What You Ordained!
I Cannot Add To The Length Of My Days
So, Please Help Me, Dear Father
From Your Side Not To Stray!

Father, 
I Fully Accept And Truly Believe That
Walking With The Lord Jesus
Is
A Lifelong Journey
And
Not An Escape
Or An Escapade For Thrill-Seekers
But
Is A Lifestyle Change
A Mind Reset
A Paradigm Shift
To Living Simply, Carefully, Caringly
In The Upside-Down Kingdom
Where True Power Is Shown
By Willing Service
And
Love For Others!
In Working Faith
I Willingly Sign Up For Service!

The Longer I Live
The Better I Realize And Know That
Being Rich And Connected
In This Carnal Realm
Is Most Often Not A Blessing
And I Plead, Dear Father
For Love Of The Lord Christ
That You Help Me
To Maintain A Thankful Heart
Not Jealous
Not Covetous
Not Envious Of Any Person's Raiment
Or Any Person's Silver Or Gold:
I Do Not Know With Whose Wings They Fly
Nor Am I Desirous
Their Carnal Urges And Experiences To Try!

Father, 
Little With A Contented Spirit
And
With Your Blessing Because I Please You
Is Supremely Of Great Gain
And
I Am Grateful
For The Privilege Of Knowing You
And
Having You Know My Name:
Please Help Me So That I Do Not
Your Blessed Holy Name Profane!

Father,
In The Living Word You Say That
It Is Not Your Desire That Any Should Perish
But
That All Should Come To Repentance
So Please Help Us, Me And My Brethren
To Number Our Days
To See Our Need Of Salvation
To Recognize Our Own Dear Savior
And
To Make The Binding-To-Christ Decision
That Will See Us At The Last Trumpet Blast
Being Raised Up
And
Going Up Glorified
Immortalized, Incorruptible
Inheritors Of Everlasting Life!

I Need My Jesus!
Help Me To Need Him More Each Day!
Help Me To Reliably In His Holy Name To Pray
For Health, For Strength
For Friends And Family
For Well-Wishers
For Naysayers
And
The Holy People
Of
The Great And Glorious God!
Help Us Not To Perish From Folly!
Help Us To Choose Life!
In Jesus Christ's Holy Name
I Humbly Pray And Plead!
I Love You, Lord!
Please Come For Us Soon!
AMEN!

CHOOSE LIFE: Do Not Follow The Multitude!





Sin, Pride, Passion
Envy, Jealousy
And 
Greed
Are Evils ... Children Of Natural Heart
And
There Are More Of Them
Than You Can Wave A Stick At
And
If You Are Not Careful 
- Attentive, Vigilant -
Your Desire For Truth
For Right Living
They Boldly, Brazenly, Blisteringly
Basely
Venomously Attack!
They'll Stab In Your Front And Back!

Brethren, Beloved
This Is A Fact!

Case In Point ...

Mild-Mannered Marley
Wise Wendy
Handy Heather
And
Outta Bounds
Were Standing On Sound Ground
On The Issue Of The Lord's Truth
When 
Practiced Sin, Deadly Pride
Runway Passion
And
Simmering Hatred
- That Noted Proud Handler Of Hell Hound -
Had A Thing Or Two To Say To
Actually About Them
Regarding Their Sissified Manners
And
Jelly-Fish Ways
In Their Approach To Temporal Prosperity
And
Gaining The Gilt Of The World!

Wise Wendy Replied:

You Mean Guilt!
We Don't Need It
And Have No Desire To Attain It!
We Have Committed To Wood ...!

... You Idiot ...!

... To Daily, With The Lord Christ
Faithfully, Enduringly
For Love, With Hope ... In Faith
Bear Our Cross!

What A Bunch Of Saps! 

Anybody Got A Match!
Wood Burns So Pretty
Smells So Nice
And For Keeping One Warm
It Is A Special Delight!

By Now
You Should Be Able To Tell That
There Is A Warfare
- Team Heaven Against Team Hell -
And
Just So That You Would Know
Team Hell Isssss Not Above Utilizing
Wizards That Peep
And
Supposedly Against Lord Christ's Faithful
To Cast What They Call Spells!

They Think They Are Ohhh, Sooo Deeeep!

In Their Milieu
Spells Are A Big Sell
Because
Well ... They Were A Bunch Of Disobedient
Dissatisfied, Malevolent
Malicious, Maleficent
Wayward, Wandering, Stars
Allegedly Doing "Them Christians" A Favor
By Putting Gasoline In Known Diesel Cars!

You Should Know That For Their Machinations
There's Always The Morning After The Day Before Crisis-Call!

They Never Learn! 

They Always, Always, Always
Almighty God's Truth Spurn
Unless ... 
You Can Separate Them From Sordid Self
Catching Them Off-Side
And
Shining Living Light
In Places Dark And Tight!
Did Someone Say Fight Night!?!

Long Story Short ...

One Day
Vaunted Pride, Runaway Passion
And
Selfie Self
That Glutton For Punishment
Went After Wise Wendy
And
Things Got Ugly Real Fast!

Vaunted Pride Cut To The Chase
Are Ungrammaticaly Asked Wise Wendy:

Why You Here!?!

Looking Immensely Cheered
Wise Wendy's Response Was Straight Out Of Left Field!

I'm So Glad You Asked!
With Me, Please Bear!
If It Were Possible
I'd Offer You A Chair
But Since We're Standing
I Will Accept Your Ear:

There Are Pillars In The Christian's Life
Made To Be Personally Used
And I, Being Amongst The Faithful Few
Have Purposed That I Will Not
Their Strength And Power Refuse!

My Existence ... My Life ... Is No Accident!
The Lord Placed Me Here For A Purpose
And I Am Determined My Lord To Serve
So That I Will Not Receive
What Satan And Unrepentant Sinners Earn!

Number One:
Having A Working Conscience
Activated By The Spirit Of Truth 
And Utilized By Me Is A Blessing!

Number Two:
I've Got A Job To Do For My Soul And My God The Eternal One
So I'm Not Wasting Time With Satan The God-Fraud!
You Need To Accept The Free Clue!

Number Three:
The Word Of God Is A Shield For Us
So You Need To Follow The Word Of God
And The Power Of God Will Strengthen You
To Wisely Do His Will!
Bend ... Don't Burn!
From Sin And Self Turn!

I Could Enter Into Controversy With You
But I Will Not!
I Could Follow Your Lead
And Experience The Holy God's Blot
But I Shall Be Wise Unto Salvation!

I Shall Walk Wise!
I Shall Perform In Wise Ways
And I Shall Follow The Great Lord Of Creation
Into The Life Of Eternal Days!

Look To Save Your Own Soul
And Stop Running To Sin
And Being About It So Bold!

Be Warned!

Vengeance Is Mine!
I Shall Repay, Saith The Lord.


The Lord Does Not Abide Sin
And Being Jealous For His Character
His Word ... His Name
He Does Not Ever Play!

The Lord's Vengeance Is Served Cold
Upon Those Not Caring About The Save-My-Soul Goal
And Willfully Running Wild And Free Outside The Safe Fold!

Is Your Purpose To Lose Your Purchased Soul
For That Which Is Not Bread
For That Which Is Not Imperishable
Aka The Eternal Goal!?!


The Silence That Followed Was Palpable!

Brethren,

If Looks Could Kill
Wise Wendy Would Have Been Laid Out Cold!

Vaunted Pride ... Crudely Prideful
Selfie Self ... Sincerely Selfish
And
Runaway Passion ... Passionately Vile
All Literally Spat On Wise Wendy
Kicked Dirt On Her Shoes
And
Blew Acrid Smoke In Her Face 
As They ... Disdaining Truth ... Departed!

Take Warning ...

Salvation Is Not A Gift To Despise!
Running Wild Does Not Protect From Lies!
Following Fools
The Lord Of Grace And Glory To Deny
Shall See All The Unrepentant Sinners
Death, Hell, Sin And Satan
And
His Fallen Angels
In The Lake Burning With Fire And Brimstone
Consumed!

The Lord Does Not Save Cliques
Countries, Campuses, Nor Congregations!
The Lord Jesus Christ The Righteous
The Creator ... The Savior
The Redeemer ... The King
Saves Individuals
Woman, Child, Man!
He's The Son Of Man!
You're Fallen Man!
Reach For The Outstretched Hand
That Guides To The Heavenly Land!

Do Not Follow Fashion
And
Do Not Follow The Multitude
To Despise Your Sure Inheritance
To Denigrate Your Purchased Gift
Of 
Eternal Life!
If You Do
You Will Not Survive
The Carnal Strife!
Take Jesus
And
Have The Eternally-Good Life!

HAPPY SABBATH + Great Deception Is Coming For You And For Me!








The First Great Deception
Will Be Repeated
In The Great Deception Called Last
AND
It Will Cover The Tests
That Eve And Adam Failed
BUT
Our Lord And Savior Jesus Christ
Met And Passed!

Lust Of The Flesh
Lust Of The Eye
AND
The Pride Of Life
AKA
Appetite
Presumptuous Sin
AND
The Call To  False Worship
Are Going To Send Many Of Our Brethren
Into The Blackness Of Darkest Night!

If We Will To Overcome
We Must Do As Our Lord Christ Did
AND
Give To That Flying
Lying
Murdering Dragon, Satan
The Devil
The Prince Of The Power Of The Air
"Thus Saith The Lord ...! "
AND
Get Out Of There!

Never Try To Match Wits
With Those Subtle Of Tongue
Filled With Pride
Singing The Beautiful Siren Song
Questioning Presumptuously
If God Did Say! 

Turn Your Face To The Lord's Face
AND
Recognizing Your Present Need
Humbly
Fervently
Importunately Pray!

Jesus Christ Overcame
So That We May Overcome
AND
He Will Give To Us That Power
When We
Recognizing Our Need
AND
Declaring Our Need Of Him
Before The Holy God
In Total Surrender
Fall Down!

Brethren, Beloved,

Please Do Not Let Your Stomach
Your Eyes
Your Feelings
Write A Bearer-Check Your Person Can't Cash!

Please Do Not Let Presumption
Cause You With Sin To Madly Run Along! 

Do Not Let The Overwhelming Pageantry
In The False Worship
Cause You Before The Idol To Fall Down
For
All This Will Earn You
Is The King-Judge's
"I Don't Know You!
Depart From Me!"
Frown!

Walk In The Word
In The Light
In The Truth
In The Care Of
Jesus Christ The Lord
Even If 
You Walk Alone! 

Stand 
On The Word Of Jesus
Even If It As The New Born Lamb
Against A Rutting Goat Herd!

Trust 
In The Lord
Though You Knees Knock
AND
Your Poor Heart Trembles!

Keep
Your Eyes On Jesus Christ
AND
Come Sword Fire Gun Water
Boiling Oil Garrotte
Or Poison That Drinks Nice
In Jesus Christ
You Will Have Victory
AND
You Will Rise Up To Glory
At The Beginning Of The New Life!

You Will Reign
In God's Glory
If You Are A Recipient Of
The Former Rain
- The Dew
AND
The Latter Rain
- The Abundant Showers Of Blessing!


PRAYER:

Oh, Lord!

How Majestic Is Your Name In All The World!


Father,
We Come Humbly
Crying For Salvation
Denying The Gross Liar
Reaching For Our God
Appealing For The Grace
Purchased For Us
By The Spilt And Innocent Blood
Of Jesus Christ Our Lord!

Help Us, Lord
To Bare Our Souls To You
To Trust Our Hearts To You
To Give Our Lives To You
To Hope In You
For You Are God Eternal
Almighty
Faithful
Saving
Providing
Helping
Blessing
Always True!

Protect Our Minds
From The Onslaught Of Sin!
Protect Our Souls
Even If It Means Our Long Sleeping!
Grant Us Your Favor
Your Comfort
Your Peace
Your Rest
And Bless Us
Father To The Faithful
With The Walk
That Leads Us To Your Eternal Rest!

Remember The Brethren
On The Holy Sabbath Day
And
Grant Unto Each
The Promised Sabbath Blessing
As In Your Shade
We, In Praise
In Holy Worship
In Consuming Peace
Rest!

We Love You, Lord!
Pour Out Of Your Spirit Upon Us
For
In Jesus Christ's Holy Name
We Call
We Come 
To Be Blessed!
AMEN.

Belteshazzar's Feast ... As A Corporate Affair



The Companies Were All Gathered Together!
Business Cards Were Being Brandished That Day!
The Excitement In The Place Was Palpable
AND
The Minions Were Running Every Which Way!

One By One
Grand Titles Were Announced
Exchanged
Highlighted
Until All Had Been Identified
Save One
AND
Soon
The Room Became Quite Quiet
For A Company Title Was Necessary For All
So That The Business 
Like CLock-work
Could Be Efficiently Run!

The Supreme Leader Cleared His Throat
In An Officious
Official Manner
AND
Demanded To Know:

How Comest Thou In Here?
What Is Your Given Company Title?  
Care To Share?
And, Please Tell
Why Did Ye Not Cheer Like All For Uncle Billie's
Wild And Wily 
Corporate Raider Bears?

The Response Is Bold Quick ...

I Am On A Mission Of Mercy!
I Need No Company Title To Pose
But You May Call Me Servant Of God
For That Is The Only Position
I Need Or Hold
AND
I Do Not Indulge In Non-Beneficial Activities
That Are Instigated By The Fraud
To Defile
The Holy Vessels Of God!

There Was A Gasp!
A Roar!
Stunned Looks Of Consternation
AND
The Supreme Leader
Was Around His Gills Looking Quite Green
Then Red
As He Had A Fit Of Apoplexy
And Then
As He Came To Himself
He Became Vulgarly Mean!

His Tirade Was Blistering
Unkind
Evil
As He Dismissed The Living Word In The Bible
Denied The God Of Heaven
AND
Uplifted The Hand-Crafted Gods Of The Earth
AND
Spoke Dotingly
About The Rewards And Benefits
That Conforming Corps Men See
When They Play Ball
AND
When He Was Finished
With His Numerous Asides
All
Save One
In That Place
Were Roaring With Laughter
Wiping Their Tearing Eyes
AND
Holding Their Hurting Sides!

Well?!
What Have You Now
To Say For Yourself?

I Am The Servant Of God!
I Get Living Wages From You
For The Physical Work Of Labor That I Do
BUT
I Get My Rewards From The Holy God
Who Is Known To Have Made Me And You!

I Permit You To Rent My Talents!
You Own Neither My Conscience
Nor My Soul!
Your Rewards You May Keep
Or Give To Others As You See Fit
BUT
My Soul Is Anchored
On Christ The Righteous
And You
As A Leader
Are Truly Grossly Unfit!

You Know Right From Wrong
BUT
Truth In Your Eyes
In The Street Is Cast Down
AND
You Promise That Which
You Will Never Deliver
While Taking Pleasure
In Making Faithful Workers
In Your Presence
In Fear
Shiver!

Worldly Pleasures Don't
Can't Last
AND
Your Vile Pretensions
To Godhood
Show Upon Whom Your Lost Lot Is Cast
BUT
My Free Will Is 
By Almighty God
Free To Me
AND
I Choose That It Be
Inclined To Him Who
Rules The Universe Wide And Vast
Beyond What Lying Eye Can See!

Sanctioning Wrong
Does Not Make It Right!
Being Profane
Does Not Make Your Candle Shine Bright!
AND
Acting Inane
Does Not Make You
Any Less Corrupt And Vain
AND
Your Actions Show
That You Are Indeed
Undeniably
Insane!

AND

Using
AND
Abusing Man
The Purchased Vessels Of God
In Riotous
AND
Ribald Gaiety
In Honor Of The Fraud
By Denying The Holy God
Will Glean You No Blessing
In The Day Of Accounting
When You Are Raised From The Sod!

BY NOW ...

The Room Is Eerily Quiet!
Stunned Faces Are White!
The Supreme Leader's Knees Are Knocking
And He Looks Quite A Sight
For
He Has Been Found Wanting
For Every Word Uttered Is True
AND
There Is A Mass Exodus
As All 
Panicked
For The Doors 
Rush Through!

Brethren,
We Are Told:





King Belteshazzar
Bought And Paid For His Party Companions!
Dissension In The Ranks
In That Dispensation
Meant Sure Death!

Standing Up For Truth And Right
Against Might
Takes A Man Woman
Willing
By God's Grace
To Stand Firm In The Faith
AND
Put The Devil 
Decidedly In His Proper Place!

Our Working For Earthly Employers
Our Dependence On A Pay Check
Should Never Ever Be 
At The Expense
Of Selling Our Souls
To Achieve Corporate Goals!

From Personal Experience
I Once Had an Employer Tell Me
That I Was Hired To Work
Not To  ...  Think!

Hmmmm  ...

Beloved,
A Christian By Nature MUST Always Be Thinking!

Remember:

Be As Wise As The Serpent
And As Harmless As The Dove!
Our Father Is The God Of Heaven
AND
Our Only Command Performance
Is When The Bar Of God Opens
AND
We Must Explain Ourselves
In The Presence Of The Holy Spirit 
The Real Peace Dove!

Baubles Are Cheap By The Dozen!
Earthly Power Is Fleeting Always!
Damned Is That Wicked Devil
AND
All Who Wilfully Permit Him
On Their Blood-Purchased Souls To Prey!

Pray Without Ceasing!
Prayer Changes Things!
Put No Trust In Man
Horses Nor Princes
For The Living God Rules
AND
The Unbeliever
In His Holy Presence 
Of Necessity Winces!

Walk By Jesus' Faith!
Don't Live By Human Sight!
Satan Is The Devil
AND
Sowing Destruction 
Is To Him
A Glorious Delight!

So  ...

In The Name Of Jesus Christ 
Do Right
AND
The Love Of God
Will Give You Light
The Ever-Encroaching
Soul-Destroying Darkness 
To Valiantly Fight!

AND  ...

You Will Keep Your Conscience Clean
IF
On Jesus Christ
You Wholly Lean!



Parties Pass


But

Eternity Is Vast!


Aim For The Distance!
