VESPERS AT THE END OF THE SABBATH: Just Stop It!?!












...  So He Told Her That
Whenever He Lifted His Arm Over His Head
It Hurt Really Badly
And Asked Her What To Do About It! 

He Went On To Say That She Told Him: 
"Stop Lifting Your Arm Over Your Head!" 

He Was Not Amused 
And Now He Refuses To Speak To Her Ever Again! 

What Do You Think, Abutte!?! 

My Dear Defray, I Don't Think
I Know That That Is The Typical Response
We All Give To The Good Lord 
When He Tells Us To Stop Doing What We Are Doing
Because It Is Hurting Us Really Badly! 

Excuse My Please!?! 

I Didn't Stutter, Defray! 
The Lord Told Us Not To Sin! 
He Told Us The Penalty For Sin! 
He Told Us What Happens To Us When We Sin
And
He Gives Us Faith, Strength, Grace, Mercy 
And
Hope For Help And Healing! 

You Know What Our Problem Is!?!
We Want The Lord To Do Our Heavy Lifting For Us
While Forgetting That We Must Expend Effort
Before We Can Expect Divine Help! 

Hold Up, Abutte!
What Effort Could We Possibly Expend First
Before We Receive Heaven's Help!?! 

Defray, How Could You, A Committed Christian
Have The Unmitigated Gall To Ask Me Such A Question!?! 

I Have The Unmitigated Gall, Abutte
Because I Don't Understand What You Are Asking Me!

Have You Ever Heard About That Blessing Called
Pray Without Ceasing!?! 

Of Course!
Who Hasn't!?!

You Would Be Surprised!
You Have A Sin, You Want To Get Rid Of It
And You, In Your Own Strength
Do The Thing In The Belief That
If You Do The Sin Enough
You Will Make Yourself Sick Aka Sick Of It
And You Wouldn't Want To Do It Again! 

Bad, Bad, Bad Really Bad Idea!

So What Should I Do For Myself, Abutte!?!

Stop Doing It By Going To The Lord In Prayer
Believing That The Lord Will Help You
By Asking Him To Help You
And Pray And Resist The Devil
And Pray Some More
And Sing A Song Praising The Lord For Answered Prayer
And Resist And Pray And Praise
And
Don't Forget To Give Thanks For Your Victory
As If You Are Already Victorious!

You Make It Sound Sooo Easy, Abutte!

It Is Hard Because It Is That Easy, Defray!

But You Just Turned It Around!?! 

So!?!
Do You Gain Muscle By Picking Up A Sheet Of Paper!?!

Of Course Not!
You Need Something A Smidge Beyond No Effort Required!

Okay!
When You Are Doing Heavy Lifting In The Gym
Don't You Have A Spotter
And Are Advised
And Encouraged
To Wear A Back-Brace!?! 

Of Course!
Everybody Knows That! 

So, Please Tell Me, Defray
In The Name Of Him Who Is Holy, Just, True, And Wise
Why You Would Face Sin
Without Your Back-Brace Aka The Lord Jesus
And Your Spotter Aka The Holy Spirit
And Your Moment By Moment Vitamins
Faith And Prayer, And Praise
And
The Fortifying Bread That 
Is 
The Infallible, Immutable Word Of The Living God!?! 

I Can't Answer That 
Because
I've Never Heard It Explained Like This Before, Debutte!

So What Are You Going To Do From Here On Out!?!

1800-Call-God Aka Pray ... And Without Ceasing!?!

You've Got It! 
And ...!?! 

Take My Vitamins And Eat My Bread
And ... Let Jesus Closely Embrace Me
Holding Me Straight Protecting Me 
And
Cooperate With The Holy Spirit
Who Will Lead Me Into All Truth
Who Sees My Drift, My Growth
My Stagnation And My Slippage
And 
Will Call Me Back Into Alignment With The Lord Of Life
Who Is Love And Light! 

Nicely Done, Defray!
Let's Do Business Again!?!

For Sure! 

Peace Be Upon You!

VESPERS AT THE END OF THE SABBATH: Sacrifice O' Foolishness!?!









 
Simmeh Hey!

We Know, Ballywho, We Know!

And Who Is That Person In The Green Dress!?!
She Seems Somewhat Familiar! 

That, My Fine Friend, Is Lotta Long-Talk
The Esteemed Speaker For This Event! 

Merciful Powers!

Are You Okay, Ballywho!?!

Oh, I'm Fine
But Very Shortly You And Your Audience Will Not Be!

Excuse Me!?!
What Do You Mean By That Remark!?!

Gabe, Do You Remember Me Telling You About Ps. 1:1!?!

Of Course!
Blessed Is The Man ... Delight ... Law Of The Lord!

And Do You Remember Ecclesiastes 5:1!?!

Of Course!
Keep Thy Foot ... Be More Ready To Hear ...!
Out With It!
What's Really Going On Here, Ballywho!?!

You And Your Group Are About To Land In It!
Your Esteemed Speaker, Your Lotta Longtalk
Is None Other Than That 
Great Purveyor Of Bare Rubbish, Sacrifice O' Fools
Who Refuses To Acknowledge Or Accept That
What She ... He ... They Are Doing Is Evil! 

Lord, Help!

He Does And He Will!
Don't Do Anything Now!
Let's Wait For The Q&A!

Okay! If You Say So!

A LONG WHILE LATER ...!

Any Questions!?!

Yes, Ms. Long-Talk, I Have One! 

Would You Tell Us Your Position
As Regards The Blessings Of Almighty God
And Advise Us As To What We May Do To Receive More Of Them!?! 

Surely, Ballywho!
The Blessings Of Almighty God 
Mighty To Save And Seal, Help And Heal, Are Legion!

There Is Merit And There Is The Gift Of Merit
And Its Various Permutations! 

If You Want God's Blessings:
Get To Work!
When You Need God's Blessings:
Get To Working For Them!

Understand This, Though, That
While On The Face They Are Free To Us All
We, Each, Can Do A Good Work
To Encourage God To Hand Over Those Things
Which We Know Are Perfect For Us 
At The Moment We Have Determined Are Suitable
To Make Us Feel Happy At That Moment Of 
Our Lust, Uh, Ahhhm, Desire, Our Need!

ALL SOUND IN THE CONFERENCE ROOM
CEASED!

Ballywho Slowly Got Up And Proceeded To The Dais!

Turning To Ms. Long-Talk, He Began Speaking:
If I Were To Ask You To Give Me One Of Your Free Pamphlets
And I Accepted It When You Handed It To Me
What Would You Say About That!?!

I Would Say That You Received It ... Gladly!

Now, Lotta Long-Talk
If I Were To Ask You To Not Accept The Check That
You Will Be Receiving For This Event
What Would You Say To That!?! 

Ballywho, I Would Promptly And Vigorously Say


"No, I Will Not Return It
Because
I Have Earned It For My Labor!"


I See, I See!
So Let Me Get This Straight:
I, A Frail Human, May Receive A Gift From You, A Weak Human
And You, A Wicked Human May Earn A Paycheck For Your Labor 
But We, Needy Humans
In The Living Light Of Almighty God The Consuming Fire
May, By Meritorious Works, Earn A Blessing Or Blessings
But Not Just Receive, Take, Be Pleased To Accept
The Word Of The Holy God Who Cannot Lie
Unlike You, Lotta Long-Talk 
Better Known As Sacrifice O' Fools!?! 

The Room Erupted!

Sacrifice O' Fools Screeched And Fled!

Ballywho Called For Order!

Brethren,

This Here, Is Why We Need To Get Back To The Book Of Books
And Stop Letting Our Itching Ears Cause Us
To Collect Unto Ourselves These Charlatans
Who Are Making Money, Filthy Lucre, For Themselves
And While Making Merchandise Of
Almighty God's Purchased People! 

Brethren,

We Cannot Beat The Living God's Giving
And
We Cannot Buy The Eternal God's Blessing!

Our Job One Is To Believe The Word Of The Giving God
Accept By Faith That His Gifts Of Love Are Free To Us
And Are To Be Received With A
"Yes, Lord!" And "AMEN!!!" 

The Apostle Peter Told Simon The Sorcerer That
His Money Would Perish With Him For His Wickedness
When He Sought To Purchase The Holy Spirit's Power!

Dear Ones,

There Will Be No Wage-Slaves
Blessing Buyers Or Blessing Earners 
Darkening Any Gate Of Entry Into The Living Kingdom
So Let Us Now ... In Saving Faith Reject
Every False Thing Spoken By That Night-Shade
Sacrifice O' Fools Aka Lotta Long-Talk
And Repeat Our Motto:



"God Said It, I Believe It
And
That Settles It For Me!"
 

 
AMEN!!!

Peace!

VESPERS AT THE END OF THE SABBATH: Will You Will To Will!?!












Right And Choice Were Squaring Up Against Will And Want!
Well, Let Me Correct Myself Just A Lil' Bit! 

There Were Two Types Of Right
And Two Types Of Will
And One Each Of Choice And Want!
You've Got To Keep Up With Me In This: 
Just Follow The Process! 

Right One And Will One Is Almighty God:
To Do Right Is The Will Of Almighty God 
And
The Will Of Almighty God Is Right! 

Doing The Will Of Almighty God Is Right For Us
And
To Do Right Because It Is The Will Of Almighty God For Us
Is Best For Us
Since It Confers A Blessing Upon Us From Almighty God! 

Now, Right Two And Will Two Can Get Iffy Real Fast:
We Have Free-Will
And
We Have The Right To Choose To Use Our Free-Will
However We Want! 

We Can Do Right
And
We Can Give Our Will To Almighty God
And Thereby
Ever Choose To Do Right: 
There Is A Difference!

We May Want To Do Right But Choose To Do Wrong
Because
We Did Not Give Over Our Free-Will To Almighty God
Who Is Right!

The Really Iffy Part Is When Our Desire To Do Right
Is Caught Between Human Will, Human Want
And
Almighty God's Will For Us
And
Our Right Of Choice To Use Our Will
To Choose To Want What Our Stubborn Will
Wants Us To Choose! 

The Question Is Where Does Godly Choice Come In
Without Our Freely Giving Over
Our Human Known-Stubborn Will To Almighty God
Which Would Help Us To Make Said Godly Choice!?! 

Why Don't We Just Choose To Make
Almighty God's Will Our Want Which Is A Need!?!

Why Not Allow Almighty God
To Help Us Align Our Will With His Sovereign Will
So That We Will Will To Will To Want
And Will To Choose To Make The Choice That Is
The Will Of God For Us That Is Right
And Will Make Us Right With Almighty God!?!

That's A Whole Mouthful But Don't Give Up Now!

We Will Always Have The Right Of Choice!
We Will Always Have Free-Will! 

We Will Always Want What We Want 
Even When There Is No Need For The Want!

We Choose To Lose Even If We Did Not Make A Choice
Because 
Not Making A Choice For Right 
Is
To Choose Not To Be Right With Almighty God
Which Will Have Us To Be Found Wanting
And Willing Not To Be
In A Right Relationship With Almighty God!

Who Knew That Being Willing To Be Right With Almighty God
By His Will
Would Find Us Not Wanting
Because 
Our Will Is Right With Almighty God!?!

The Faithful Student Of The Living Word Knows
So Open The Good Book!

N.B.:

Almighty God Is Being Stressed 
Because
There Are False Gods "High-Jacking" Our Free-Will
- Which, In Truth, We Give Away - 
To Cause Man To Waste Man's Willingness
To Willingly Give His Free-Will To Almighty God
So That He Will Be Found Wanting
In The Great Day Of Small Things! 

That, Dear Ones, Is Satan 101!

So You See, A Wrongly Used Will
Will Cause Us To Make The Wrong Choice
Which Will Leave Us In Want Of
A White Robe Of RIGHTeousness 
And
An Overcomers' Crown!

Know Your Needs From Your Wants! 

Please Make The Right Choice 
Because
Our Choices Determine Our Character
Which Is The Only Thing We Will Take To The Grave!

Your Will Is A Terrible Thing To Waste!

A Character Built Through Our Relationship With
Almighty God In Jesus Christ 
Will See Us Inheriting Eternal Life! 

Please Choose Life!

Peace!

VESPERS AT THE END OF THE SABBATH: Open The Letter!

 









Dear Lady Rose, 
I Sincerely Hope And Pray That This Missive
Finds You In Good Spirits And Doing Well! 

As For Me, Besides A Lil' Bit O' The Arthur
I Am Doing Well, All Things Considered! 

Lady Ro, I Want To Ask You A Question: 
Did You Receive A Strange-Looking
Very Large, Padded Envelope By Mail Or Special Delivery 
In The Past, Oh, I Don't Know, Three Months!?! 

I Only Ask Because I Received A Like Envelope
With A Handwritten Letter With The Strangest Instructions! 

It Said, And I Quote: "If You Are Happy, Read The Letter!
If You Are Sad, Read The Letter! 
If You Are Tempted, Read The Letter! 
If You Are Feeling Weary, Read The Letter!" 

The Letter Of Instructions Rattled Off 
A Long List Of Things For Which I Should Read Some Letter 
Which Should Have Been Enclosed But Was Not! 

All That Was In The Envelope Was An Old Book
Rather Expensive-Looking But Nonetheless Old, Like Methuselah! 
I Shook That Book And No Letter Fell Out So I Am Clueless!
Neither The Envelope Nor The Letter Of Instructions
Bear A Return Address So I Don't Know Who To Contact
About The Missing Letter!
I Am At A Loss!
Please Help!

Love Always,
Dorothy


**********


Dear Dorothy,
You Have Surely Lived Up To Your Nickname!
You Are A Real Dodo!

Yes, I Received A Similar Envelope:
Everybody Did, And Anybody Coming Into The Household
Is Going To Receive An Identical Envelope! 

Dodo, Did You Look At The Title Of The Book!?!
Did You Notice That It Said "Holy Bible!?!"
Did You Open Said Bible!?!
Don't You Know Or Have You Forgotten That
The Holy Bible Is Called God's Love LET...TER To Mankind!?!

I Should Box Your Ears!

How Come It Has Taken You Three Whole Months
To Open That Envelope And, Worse Yet
Three Months To Come ... With Help ... To The Realization That
The Missing Letter IS The Enclosed Bible!?!

You Need A Real Cut-Tail With A Hard Rubber Slipper!

Seriously, Though, All Those Points
Telling You To Read The Letter Are For Real And
You Need To Fixedly Pay Attention To And Follow Them!

Of Course, It Must Be Stated That
"No Read, No Power: Read Well, You Flower!"
That's The Lord's Will Concerning You, Me, We, His Children!

Call Me On Meet And We Can Read It Together
Taking Turns, Of Course!

Love You, Bless You, Talk To You Soon!
Your Favorite Sis-Sis!

Peace!

VESPERS AT THE END OF THE SABBATH: Them's Big Doings!










 I Don't Know About You
But I Have Been To Some Big Doings In My Time
But None Like That! 
Let Me Bring You Up To Scratch! 

It Is Like This: Mai Good Met His Glory
And There Is Peace! 

You Meant To Say That There Was Peace, Misty! 

No, Miss Miffed! 
I Said What I Said Because It Is Right! 

You Know You Lying, Misty!
You Just Indulging In Hyperbole
To Get Me All Entangled And Invested
To Make Yourself Feel Special! 

Miss Miffed, If You Want To Hear My Story Shut Your Trap!
If You're Not Interested, Just Keep Flapping Your Yap!

Sorry, Misty!

Very Well!
Mai Good And His Glory Are Bound Together
In An Ordained Marriage! 

You Mean An Arranged Marriage, Misty! 

Miss Miffed!?! 

Yes, Misty!?! 
Wha' I Not Too Long Tell You!?!

Okay, Misty, I Got It! 

Well, According To The Covenant They Entered Into
Mai Good Gets The Desires Of Her Heart From His Glory 
If It Is For Mai Good's Good
And For His Glory's Glory!

Wait Up, Misty!
Please Let Me Speak! 

Say On, Miss Miffed!

You Mean To Tell Me That Mai Can't Get A Good
Without His Getting A Glory!?!

Yes!

His Glory Really Got Some Nerve! 

Nope! 

Excuse Me!?! 

I Said "Nope!" 

His Doesn't Have Nerve! 
He Has Wisdom! 

Would You Like To Small-Down That Statement For Me, Ms. Misty!?! 

Sure Can, Miss Miffed! 

His Glory Is The Great Prince!

I'm Sure You Mean Great-Kind Prince! 

No, Miffy! 
His Glory Is The Great Prince!

Wait, Wait, Wait ... You Mean As In HIM!?! 

That's Right, My Dear!
The Very One! 

Lord Almighty!
But, Misty, If That Is For Real ...! 

... It Is! 

...  That Means That It Is A Matter Of 
His Character Being On The Line
So He Can't Give Her Anything That 
Goes Against Who He Is! 

Ding, Ding, Ding! 
Miss Miffed Wins The Perfect Prize! 

Misty!?! 

Yes, Miffy!?!

You Just Made Up That Tale To Tell Me
The Whole Old Story Of Jesus And His Love! 

Yes, Miffy! 

I Love It! 
Whatever Is For My Good
Will Always Be For His Glory!

Indeed!

We Are Amazingly Blessed!

AMEN!!!

Thank You, Lord Jesus!

Peace!

VESPERS AT THE END OF THE SABBATH: PRAYER: Dear Lord, No Disrespect Intended ...!













PRAYER:

Dear Lord, 
Have Mercy And, As You Promised, Remember Me! 

Lord, No Disrespect Intended 
But All I Can Offer You Today Is 
Thank You For My Life
Bless Yo
 For My Hope
Praise You For My Peace 
And Say I Love You
I Trust You
I Believe You
And Ask You To Help Me To Not Be An Ingrate
For All Your Blessings Showered Upon Me
The Majority Of Which I Will Never Know This Side Of Eternity! 

Lord, I Need To See You
Just As The Human Heart Longs To See
The Form Of Its Beloved
And To Feel Their Presence
To Hug Them Close
Hold Their Hand
Touch Their Face
And To Gently Rest The Beloved's Head Against Their Chest
And Hear Their Heart Beating
And Know That The Object Of Their Love Is Home
Is With Them
And They, Themselves, Feel At Home!

With You, Lord, I Long To See And Be With You
Who Loves Me Best
Who Has Never Failed Me
Or Done Anything To Hurt Or Harm Me!

I Long To Be With You
The One Who Has Raised And Is Raising Me Up
From The Morass That Is The Sin Life With Its Myriad Sorrows
And Elevating Me To The Perfection Of Sanctification!

I Desire To See You As You See Me
And To Know You As You Know Me
Face To Face
And In All Your Glory
And Thence To Touch The Thorn-Inflicted Scars
On Your Forehead
To Caress The Mark Of The Gash
From The Evilly Efficient Spear-Thrust
Compliments Of The Roman Soldier Just Doing His Job
To Hear The Heart Of Him Whose Love To And For Me 
Permitted Him To Defy Death And Rob It Of Its Trophy
Which Made It Possible For Me To Love Him
To Die In And For Him
And Live To Say To Death, Our Last Enemy
"Where Is Your Sting, Where Is Your Victory!?!"
And To Know That My Victory Is The Overcomers' Crown
And To Live, Love, And Be With You
For The Ceaseless Ages Of Eternity:
Lord, Hold Me Fast!

I Long To Kiss Your Feet With Thanksgiving
And To Lay Your Nail-Scared Hands Against My Face
And Kiss Each Palm!
What A Wonderful Day It Will Be!

Lord, I Didn't Feel That I Had It In Me To Pray Today
But In Talking With You And Cooperating With Your Sweet Spirit
I Realize That I Have Poured Out My Heart:
It Feels ... It Is ... Liberating!

Thank You For Hearing And Answering My Prayer Of Faith!
I Love You With My Whole Heart!
I Will Speak With You Again A Little Later!
Be Pleased With Me!
Have Another Beautiful Day Blessing The Brethren
With Your Gift Of A Portion Of Your Faith And Unfailing Favor!
AMEN!!!

Brethren,

Let Us Please Seek To Remember That 
Prayer Is The Strength Of The Soul: 
Commune With The Lord Today ... Right Now! 

Peace!

VESPERS AT THE END OF THE SABBATH: Delulu!


 








Why Are You All Calling Her Delulu!?! 
Isn't Her Name Rosalie!?! 

Marion, My Dear, Her Name Is Indeed Rosalie 
But, Without Exception
We Know That Delulu Fits Her Much Better! 
We May Not Be Her Mother 
But We Have Given Her The Name That Matches Her Character! 

Isn't That Kinda Harsh, Mohrmahnie!?! 

It May Be Harsh, Mavis
But It Is About The Only Relief We Can Get From Her Behavior! 
She Knows What We Are Doing 
And She Does Not Care! 

What On Earth Do You Mean, Mohrmahnie!?! 
Why Would Anyone Accept A Name That Is Not Their Own!?!

Mavis, Our Dear Rosalie Has The Grand Idea That 
She Knows What Is Best For Everyone 
And Goes To Great Lengths To Tell Us, With Great Authority
What To Think, How To Act
Who To Speak To, What To Say
And Even What To Ask The Good Lord For In Our Prayers! 

I'm Sorry To Say It, Mohrmahnie
But Your Rosalie Sound Totally Delusional! 

Mavis, Muh Girl, You Arrive! 
Welcome! 

Lady M, Would You Like To Explain That Remark!?! 

Mavis, Don't Let Me Call You Molasses! 

Why Would You Do Such A Thing!?! 

I Would Call You Molasses 
Because You Real Slow On The Uptake!
You Were Sorry To Call Rosalie Delusional 
But Did Not Make The Connection To Delulu! 

Gracious Me! I Truly Didn't! 
Looking Back, She Is Delulu As You Put It 
Because The Lord Did Not Charge Her 
To Be Anybody's Brain, Body, Or Boss! 

We Each Will Stand Before The Judgment Bar Of 
The Lord Jesus Christ 
Whether We Are Right, Wrong, Humble, Proud
Converted, Unconverted, Blessed Or Cursed 
To Answer For What We Have Done In Our Own Flesh! 

Is She Our Savior!?! 
Did She Die For Our Sin!?! 
Is She Our Advocate!?! 
Will She Leave Earth, Go To The Father's Throne
Intercede For Us And Return To Earth 
And Call Us To Meet HER In The Air 
To Go Home To Heaven For The 1,000 Years Of Peace!?! 

Come Now, Mavis! 
We Know She Won't Because She Can't 
Hence Her "Delulu" Appellation! 

Somebody Needs To Beard That Roaring Lionness! 

We Tried ... And Failed! 
She Says That The Lord Speaks To Her 
Giving Her Special Revelation For Us "Mere Mortals!"  

Lady M, All I Have To Say To Her, And All Like Her
Is To Stop Calling The Lord's Name 
Relevant To Their Lying Revelations Of Foolishness! 

The Lord Clearly Warned Us About That Madness 
And She Had Better Take Heed! 

Tell Me That Text, Ms. Mavis! 

Sure! 2 Peter 2:3 ... Destruction Is Coming! 
Everybody Clean Up, Clean Up! 
AMEN!!! 

Peace!
