PRAYER: Help Us, Lord, To Hold The Fort Until Jesus Christ Comes!

Father,

I Come To You With Love

Accepting Your Love

And

Because You Are Almighty God

And

Able

And

Ever Faithful!

Of A Truth, Lord

I Cannot Of Your Word

Indulge In The Sin Of Doubt

Because In Daily Life Now

Fulfilment Of Your Word

Is Constantly Screaming Out

That The Times Are Rapidly Changing

That The Coming Of The Great King Is Near

And

All Who Desire

By Your Love To Be Sealed

Must In This Darkening Day

Our Will And Way To Your Keeping

We Must Surely Yield!

Lord,

Truth Is Indeed Into The Street Cast Down!

Light Is Become Darkness

And

Sweet Is Become Bitter, Indeed

And

Those Who Chose By Your Grace

To Live Godly Lives

Are Seeing Intolerance

And

Persecution

Play Into Their Living-For-Christ Lives!

And, Lord

We Are Also Seeing Amongst Your Called People

The Stridency That Overzealousness Creates

And

The Laxity That Complacency Incubates

And

Those Who By Faith

Choose To Wear Your Meek, Serving And Gentle

Thus-Saith-The Lord, Spirit

Are Being Harassed

And

From Your Congregation

Being Roundly Hounded Out!

We Are Losing Our Way, Lord

And

We Are Against Your Will

Indulging The Spirit Gainsay

And

Among Us Are Those

Who Are Dispensing The Word For Profit

With

Priests, Pastors, Teachers

Studiedly Living Life

The Balaam Son Of Beor Way

Uncaring

Of What The Spirit Of Truth

And

The Preserved Word

Immutably Says!

Have Mercy On Us, Lord!

Our Hands Are Unclean!

Our Garments Are Filthy!

Our Hearts Are Not Right!

Our Ears Are A Might Itchy!

Our Tongues Are Speaking Things Obscene

And

We Are Setting Up Confederacies

With The Known Opposers Of Your Truth

Which Will See The Self-Confident

The Careless

The Unconverted

The Body-Comfort Seekers

To The Idol

At The Sound Of All Kinds Of Music

With Alacrity 

Bending Their Knee!

Lord, 

Please Help Us

Who Choose Your Truth To Believe 

To Stand Faithful

Working

Watching

Waiting

Praying And Persevering 

So That By The Fickle Winds Of Change

On The People-Sea

We Are Not Turned About

To Live An Abundant Life Ignorantly!

Help Us, Please, Lord

To Cast Out All Doubt

And

Please Root Us

And

Ground Us In All Truth

So That In Us

There Is No Shadow Of Turning From You

And

Not Even Satan, Himself

Can Stand Against Us

As We Strive For The Mastery

- That Assured Victory Of Sin

As We Travel On

The Straight And Narrow To Heaven Way!

Help Us, Lord,

I Beseech You

- In True Sorrow For Known Sin -

To Sigh And To Cry

Against The Practiced Abominations

In The Church

Because

Judgment Begins In The House Of God

For

We Faithful And Believing Your Word

Have No Desire

To Despise Your Great Salvation

Because

We Will To See Sweet Jesus In Peace

To Hear Those Glorious Words

Faithful Servant!

Well Done!

Enter Into The Joy

Of

Your Lord!

Thank You, Lord

For Your Blessings Of This Day!

Thank You, Lord

For The Living, Unchanging, Word

That Shows Us The Way Clear

That Tells Us What You Would Have Us Know

And

Hear

And

Do

And

Become!

Thank You, Lord

For The Holy Word That Says

Jesus Christ The King

Is Coming!

Get Ready!

Redeem The Time!

Satan Death Hell And Sin

Are Soon To Have Their Pay Day

And

Eternity For The Faithful

Is As Sure As Your Forgiveness Of Sin

Power!

Importunate
