COVETOUSNESS: Guard Your Heart!

Eye Onde Prize
Covetousness
Greed
And
Malicious Intent!
The Big Guns!
The Warriors Who For A Nickel
Are Willing To Have Their Desires Bent!

Sorry To Tell You
But
I Believe It Is In Your Best Interest To Know
That When Your Eyes Are Looking Down
And
Around
Your Heart For Things Abundant
Will Always, Always, Grow 
In The Strange Manner Called Profound!

It Always Starts In The Heart:
Eye Onde Prize Is The Upstart!
When He Is In Charge
You May Be Sure That Greed ... For Ungodly Gain
Will Always Follow
And
If Greed ... For Ungodly Gain ... Is Let Loose
You Can Rest Assured That
Monsieur Le Covetousness
He Who Likes To Ooh, La La
Is
Going To Go To Bat
To Get That Which He has No Right To Want 
To Place In His Cavernous Back-Pack!

Wanting Is Good ... Within The Proper Channels!
Coveting Good Things Is Good
For That Is How We Climb Up Higher
But
When Your Wanting Steps Outside The Boundaries Marked
And
You Invite That Heathen ... Malicious Intent
To Do A Do In The Dark
You Have Overstepped The Mark
And
You Are In Danger Of Getting Upon Your Character
The Mark Of The Devil
Him Who Did And Does His Dirty Deeds
Under Cover Of Dark ... ness!
To This Day
He Has Not Yet His Perfidy Confessed
And
He Believes That All His Machinations
Are Truly A Stellar Success!
People,
The Self-Delusion Is Real!

Malicious Intent Is A Notorious Gully-Boar
Who Believes With All His Being That
His Forays With Speed Into Greed
Are His By Right
Because
Of The Little Thing Called I-Need
Aka I-Want!

You Own It: He Wants It!
You Won't Surrender It: He Will Take It Away!
He Gives You A Choice:
Give Me ... Willingly
Or I Will Take it Forcefully
Or
If It Is Your Desire To Aggressively Protest
He Is Willing To Snuff Out Your Life
Sacrosanct In The Eyes Of The Lord
But 
A Thing Of Nought
In The Eyes Of His Boss-Man
Satan, The God-Fraud!

Ungodly Actions Have Consequences! 
Need An Example!?!

Prophet Balaam Wanted To Curse Israel 
To Get Himself King Balak's Coins!
The Lord God Almighty Told The Greedy Prophet "No!"
Ungodly Covetousness Told The Prophet "Get!" 
Ungodly Covetousness Won
And Anon
Balaam Ended Up Showing Balak
How To Make Israel Sin 
And
To Incur The Wrath Of The Living God!
Thousands In Israel Died
And
As To Be Expected
Greedy, Covetousness-Laden, Balaam 
Also Paid With His Life:
By His Receipt Of The King's Coins
His Covetous Life Was Not Extended!
Sin Really Makes Man Blind!

King Ahab Was A Petulant Child When Crossed!
He Wanted Naboth's Vineyard
And
The "No!" Answer Made His Cross!
He Went Off His Food!
He Sulked Like A Toddler
And
His Wife Being A Heathen
Thought Nothing Of Having An Innocent Man Murdered!
Ahab Got Naboth's Vineyard By Fraud
And
Dogs Licked Up King Ahab's Blood
And
Dogs Ate Queen Jezebel, His Viciously Cruel Wife!
Covetousness Is A Butcher Knife! 

King David Knew Better
But
His Eyes Made Him Believe That
The More Beautiful Bathsheba Was Much Better For Him
And
Covetousness Turned To Adultery
And
Adultery Turned To The Murder Of A Best Friend
And
Death Was Visited Upon The Innocent Child
His Ill-Conceived Seed! 

The Harvest Of Known Sin
And
Blood Never Left King David's Household
For As Long As He Did Live!
He Loved The Lord!
He Repented Of His Sin!
He Was Forgiven Of His Sin
But
That Did Not Mean That
The Grapes Of Wrath That He Had Planted
Were Not Going To Be Harvested!

Four Of His Sons Died ... Three Cruelly:

Bathsheba's First Born Son ... Unnamed:
The Lord Took Him! 

Amnon ... Covetousness, Lust, Greed, Gone Wild:
Raped His Sister
And His Brother, Absalom, Had Him Murdered! 

Absalom ... Who Coveted King David's Throne:
Slept With His Father's Concubines
Started Civil War
And Was Executed By General Joab

And

Adonijah ... Who Coveted King Solomon's Throne ... Twice
Thought To Get The Throne ... The Second Time
By Asking His Brother For His Father's Widow
His Body-Warmer, Virgin-Wife, Abishag!
King Solomon Had Him Executed!
Deceit's Profits Are A Demonic Device!

Judas Iscariot Coveted Power
And
Actually Thought He Could Circumvent
The Sovereign Will Of The Eternal Holy God!
He Made A Pact With Death
Made A Deal With Priestly Powers
Sold Gold To Buy Silver
And
Spilt His Guts Over A Roman Road
For All Of His Troubles!

Judas Received What He Would Never Spend
And
He Shall Never Ascend The Heights Of Him
Whom He Believed He Could Manipulate
And
Who For 30 Silver Pieces
To Wicked Men He Sold!

Sin Is Called Sin For A Reason!
Sin Only Profits For A Season!
The Reasons For The Season
Is Called By Many ... Legion
But
That Legion Is The Legion Of Doom
Which Shall Never Reign
But
Is Eternally Condemned
And
Consumed!

Covetousness Starts In The Heart!
Unchecked
Covetousness Will Never Depart
Until It Has Sliced, Diced And Spliced
And
Delivered Up Its Host
Unto The Damned One
Who Shall Soon Be As The Dust Of
Burnt, Burnt, Toast!

Covetousness Does Not Profit
And
None Who Indulge In This Dastardly Disease
Shall Ever Get To Sit In Heaven
Or
Bow Before The King Of Love
In Perfect Peace!
Don't Give In To This Known Gross Sin, Please!
