VESPERS AT THE END OF THE SABBATH: PRAYER For Help!

PRAYER:

Oh, Heavenly Father, 

Please Have Mercy On Us Who Are Distressed

Walking In Darkness, Deceived

Doubting The Deliverance Paid For And Promised 

And Provided To Whosoever Sees Their Need

And Is Willing To Reach For The Extended Hand Of Him

Who Is Our Hope, Bringing Help And Healing

And Is The One Door To The Heavenly Home! 

Please Help Us To Not Yield To The Taunts And Temptations Of 

The Naysayers, The Scorners, The Liars

The Licentious, The Proud, The Perverse

And The Affluent And Boldly Willing Sinners 

Who Are Unafraid And Unashamed

And Are Vociferously Calling Others 

To Follow Them To Satan's Planned And Man-Purveyed Ruin! 

Please Unstop Our Ears So That We May Truly Hear Your Truth! 

Please Apply The Heavenly Eye-Salve

So That Our Eyes May Be Healed 

And We Will Truly See The Light Which Leads To Everlasting Life! 

Oh, That A Coal From The Altar In Heaven May Be Applied To Our Lips 

So That We May Be Cleansed Of Our Iniquities

And Purged Of Our Sin! 

Oh, Father, 

Let It Be That We, Willing To Be Saved, Will Say: 

"Without Our Lord Jesus, We Cannot Do Anything!" 

And, In Faith, Nothing Wavering

Commit To Our Lord

And To Taking The Way Of The Cross Which Leads Home! 

Hear Our Earnest Prayer 

And Answer Us According To Your Will 

And In Your Way 

For We Ask These Blessings In Jesus Christ's Holy Name! 

AMEN! 

You Are In The Center Questioning ... Yourself!

You Are In The Center! 

Voices Are Calling You! 

The Loud, Obnoxious Yet Hugely Compelling Voices 

Are Those Of The Careless, Wicked

And All-Around Worldly-Wise! 

The Calming, Gently Calling, Clearly Unambiguous Voice 

Is 

That Of The Only Wise God Of Grace Who Inhabits Glory! 

You Are In The Valley Of Decision 

And 

No Caller May Force You To Walk With Them! 

For Some Strange Reason, You Feel Conflicted 

And Find Yourself Questioning  Yourself: 

Do I  Stand With The Brave And Offend These Worldly-Wise 

And Known Wicked People 

Or Do I Offend My God Who Alone Is Wise

Who Provides For, Protects, And Gives Me Peace 

... Or ... 

Do I By Willfulness And Wickedness

And Practicing Evil Just Because

Basely Offend The All-Wise God 

Who Is My Soul's Desire And Salvation

And Eternal Security

In Order To Please The Worldly-Wise Amongst Whom I Live

And Who Can Daily Make My Life A Living Hell 

If I Cross Them By Using Holy Words And Doing Faith-Based Deeds!?! 

Beloved, 

This Is Not A Hard Decision To Make! 

The Worldly-Wise ... Motivated By Satan

All Have The Stench Of 

Eternal Separation From The Life-Giver Attached To Them 

Unless They Confess And Repent Of Their Known Sins! 

The All-Wise God 

Is 

Love, Light, Life

The Life-Giver

The Creator And Recreator

And 

The Fragrance Emanating From Him 

Is 

Joy, Peace, And Rest! 

He Makes Life Worth Living

Raises The Dead 

And

He Personally Loves You, And Me! 

Dear Ones, 

Flesh Will Fail! 

Faith In God Cannot Fail! 

Please Pray And Decide For Christ

And 

Physically And Spiritually Thrive! 

Peace!

VESPERS AT THE END OF THE SABBATH: Marching Orders!

"Stand With The Brave!" 

"Be Very Courageous!" 

          "Be Strong In The Lord!" 

          "Hold The Fort!" 

                    "Choose Life And Blessing!" 

                    "Live Free In Jesus!" 

                              "Claim Your Victory Over Sin!" 

                              "Death Before Dishonor!" 

These Are Either The Dumbest Words Ever Uttered 

Or 

They Are The Marching Orders

The Rallying Call Of And For 

One Choosing To Walk Wise Under 

The Righteous-White Banner Of 

The Saints Of God And Christ! 

Beloved, 

There Will Be No Fools, Cowards, Weaklings, Or  Doubters

Nor Untested, Untried, Unprovened, Posers 

Entering The Holy City! 

If You Haven't Victoriously Borne Your Cross

You Shall Not Joyfully Wear The Over-Comer's Crown! 

Do You Faithfully Pray 

And 

Enduringly Plod On Though Weary And Oppressed!?! 

There's An Old Expression: 

"You Don't Get Anything 

Because

You Don't Ask For Anything!" 

Are You Forgetting 

To Raise Yourself Up Boldly To The Throne Of Grace 

To Make Your Petitions Known Unto Our Giving And Forgiving God 

Who Knows And Owns Everything 

And 

Is Desirous Of Blessing You Beyond All Imagining 

But Won't 

Until You Let Your Requests Be Made Known Unto Him!?! 

Open Your Eyes ...

Know Jesus Christ The Lord: 

He Is Protector, Provider

Savior, Sealer

Healer

And 

Helper Who Equips All Whom He Calls To Share His Glory! 

Strengthen Your Weak Knees In His Holy Word 

And 

Stand Strong Against The Dominion Of The Damned! 

Your Orders Are Not An Advertising Stunt: 

You Are Called To Life Eternal! 

Put On The Whole Armor Of God

And

Stand With The Brave

By Almighty God's Great Grace!

 Peace! 

VESPERS AT THE END OF THE SABBATH: Be Strong In The Lord!

 

The Lord Equips The Called! 

We Are Called To Exercise Our Gift Of Faith 

And

Now Is Not The Time 

To Start Doubting The Faith Of Jesus Christ: 

It Cannot Fail! 

Beloved, 

We Are All In Need Of A Confidence-In-Christ Booster 

And

We Need Look No Further Than The Word Of Truth: 

It Cannot Fail! 

Jesus Christ 

Is 

The First Begotten Of The Dead! 

Jesus Christ ... Almighty God In The Flesh

Who Dwelt Amongst Us

And 

Died Amongst Us

And 

Was Buried Amongst Us

Did The Impossible! 

Jesus Christ ... Our True And Faithful King 

Caused Cruel Death To Give Living Birth 

And

Hallelujah, Praise God From Whom All Blessings Flow

This Same Jesus Who Reigns And Rules In Beautiful Zion 

Is

Going To Make Death Give Birth 

To So Many Babies Of Christ's Love That 

Cold Death Is Going To Die The Everlasting Death 

Never To Be Seen In Almighty God's New Creation! 

Jesus Christ Is Our Creator 

And

Our Recreator 

If

We Choose To Enduringly Live 

By His Daily Gift To Us Of His Holy Faith! 

Heaven Is His Throne 

And

Earth Is His Footstool

And

Any Sorrow, Shame

Sickness, Guilt

Demonic Force

Or Distasteful Desire Hanging Over Our Heads 

Is

Most Assuredly

Under Our Living God's Feet! 

Look Up To Jesus ... And Live: 

Our God Is Able 

And 

Ready To Save Us! 

Remember, Remember

Don't Ever Forget ...

Jesus Christ Saves

Protects

Provides

Preserves

And

Pursues Us

And

If And When Necessary

Punishes Us For Our Good

To Preserve Us In His Peace

And

To Get Us Home To His Perfect Paradise! 

The Peace Of The Lord Christ

Is

Perfection

And

Protection!

VESPERS AT THE END OF THE SABBATH: Truth Is Not A Merchantable Commodity

There Are No Round Squares

And There Are No Smooth Points!

There Is No Good In Satan

And There Is No Bad In Jesus Christ!

There Is No Death In Heaven

And There Is No Life In Hell

And There Is No Saving Faith In Deadly Doubt

Which Renders Courage A Hard Sell! 

Hard-Back Turtles Don't Shuttle Around Soft Shells! 

There Is No Love In Hate

And There Is No Hate In Love!

Jesus Christ Is The Lover Of My Soul

But Satan Desires Me To Love Sin

And Leave The King Of Love's Safe Fold!

A Runner From Salvation

Can't Walk Into The Promised Land

But A Sinner Desiring Salvation

Will Always Find The Helping Hand Of 
The Holy Son Of Man!

"Let No One Deceive You!"

Are The Master's Plain Words To Us

And I Beseech You, Therefore, Brethren

To Heed The Our Master's Call

And Take In The Living Truth Of Almighty God

That With Diligent Use

Shall Surely Feed And Save Us!

Truth Is Eternal

And 
Lies Can't Bless!

Jesus Christ Is Loving Lord
Almighty God
And
Kind King

So Let Us With Joy And Gladness

His Wonderful Praises Sing:

He Is Our Everything! 

We Have A Charge From On High ...

Brethren, 

Despite What The World Would Have Us Believe

Truth Is Not Relative, Nor Subjective

And 

Definitely Not A Merchantable Commodity 

For Each Human To Have His Or Her "Own Truth!" 

Jesus Christ Is The Truth! 

He Is The Lord Of Life 

And 

He Desires Us To Walk In Him ... In The Truth

So That We Are Ever Blessed! 

It Is Not Easy To Walk Against The Prevailing Current Of Lies

Compromise And Deceit 

But 

By Almighty God's Great, Available, Grace We Can 
And 
Truth Always Being Told, We Must 

If 

We Are To Arrive Safely At The Heavenly Home! 

Beloved, 

We Have An Expectation From The Living God 

So Let Us Watch And Pray 

And

Be Faithful To Our Lord, The King

No Matter The Cost! 

Almighty God's Glory Awaits Us! 

Our Enduring Faith Shall Ensure That

We Shall Not Only View The Heavenly

But

We Shall Inhabit That Beautiful Land! 

Thought For The Week Ahead:

No Matter What Annoys You

Offends You

Or Torments Your Body Or Your Mind

Remember That You Are Not Alone 
And 
That Angels Watch Over You! 

Jesus Christ Is Lord

And 

He Loves You

And 
Has Made His Spirit Available To You

So Ask ... In Your Daily Gift Of Faith For The Day 

For The Holy Spirit To Fall Upon You

And 

Keep The Holy Faith! 

We Have The Blessed Hope: Our Father Is In Heaven!
