VESPERS AT THE END OF THE SABBATH: PRAY AND STAND TALL: Almighty God Regards

When Your Fruits Hang Low
Someone Will Pick Them!
When Your Paling Is Tottering
Someone Will Give It A Kick!
When Your Name Is Being Lambasted
Someone Will Give It A Lick
And
You, Poor One Tormented
 Like An Activated Time-Bomb 
Offended
Shall Surely Start Aggressively To Tick!

But, Wait ...

Oh, Trembling Child Of Almighty God!
Oh, Willing Servant Of The Savior
Have You Forgotten That
The Lord Does Have Regard For
Your Helpless Estate!?! 
Have You Forgotten The Promise Given
By The Blood Of The Only One Innocent Shed
For You
For Me!?!

He Who Loves Sacrificially
Made, Makes ... Is Making
The Strait And Narrow Way Plain
Perfect
For Feet Shod By Salvation
To Deliver The Gospel Of Peace
Despite
The Tar Balls
The Terrors
The Threats
The Thunderings
The Torments
That Seem Never To Relent!

Believe!
Be Bold!
To Sin Turn Your Shoulder Cold
And
Rest
In Perfect Peace In Him Who Is Love
Who Eternally Lives
Him In Whose Grace You Grow
In Him Whose Mercy You Know
You May Stand Firmly
To Be Tried, Tested ... Perfected
Because
He Holds Your Heart
Your Head
Your Hand
Because
He Is Your Home!

Earthly Possessions Perish!
Palings Fall!
Fruit Trees Rot!
Dominions Get Decimated!
Principalities Fail!
Powers Bail Out While Serving Self, Satan, And Sin
But
Your Service To The Savior
The Lord Our God The King
Is 
Rewarded Via Salvation
With Redemption Guaranteed:

The Day Of Glorification 
Is 
Coming
And 

Is Even Now On The Wing 
So Do Not Let The Worldly "Wisdom" 

And 
The Ways
Of
Those Not Working With The Holy God
Rob You Of Your Possession
In The Palace Of The King
In The City Of The Eternal God!


Pray And Stand Tall ...

Almighty God Is Holding You:
Do Not Let Go Of The Hand Of The Living God! 

Faithful Obedience To Holy, Saving, Truth
Blesses
And 
Is Blessed ... In Due Season
By Eternal Life With Our God
Jesus Christ The Lord!

Remember, Remember 
Don't Ever Forget ...

Almighty God Makes Provision
For That Which He Prepares:





The Lord Jesus Christ ... For Your Soul
Does Personally Care:





Be Faithful!
Be Strong!
By Mercy And Grace Be Assured!
Sin Will Be Cured!
Victory In Christ Jesus
Shall Surely Be Yours!


Let No One Steal Your Joy In Jesus!
Rest Easy In The Lord:
You Are Blessed!
