HAPPY SABBATH + Discovering Faith's Real Value!

The Devil Is The Liar!

His Words Are Truth Reversed

And

All Who Follow Him Foolishly

Shall Ride

In Damnation's One-Way-To-Hell Hearse! 

Believers In Jesus

Are

Eternally Blessed

And

Never, Ever, Cursed!

**--**--**--**--**

I Have Made A Discovery!
Faith ... Christ's Daily Gift To Us
Is
The Balm
That We May Apply To Our Day
- According To Our Need -
No Matter What The Devil
That Lying Satan, Says!

Some Of Us May Need Or Require A Little Dab
A Dot, A Dash ... You Know, A Tittle
But
As Is To Be Expected
Of A Life Lived In The Vale Of Tears
A Liberal Application
May Be Required To Successfully Attain Our Goal!

Use Jesus' Gift As You Must 

To Save Your Own Soul!

Call!
Cry!
Pray!
Plead!

Lean On Almighty God's Love

And
Reason With Your Maker
And
On The Living Word Feed
Doing All That He Asks Of You!

Faith Is Living Seed!

The Truth Is Sacred ...

Suggestions Are Not Something

That The Lord Ever Makes

So Do As You Are Instructed

Invited ... Encouraged

Pled With To Willingly Do
And
You Shall Have Sowers Of Blessings
That Ripen You For The Saved-Soul Harvest!

Do Not Do Yourself The Lost-Cause Disservice!

Every Party Comes To An End ...

Do Not Be Left In Outer Darkness
Because
You Followed The Folly Of
The Fulminating Snake

Who Would Love To Strike You In The Heart

With His Fangs As Stakes!

You Know What You've Got ...

Be Not Wise In Your Own Eyes!

With Faith Ever At The Ready
Accessible

Always In The-Love-For-Christ Heart
You Shall Surely Taste Of Spiritual Success
And
The Life You Live
Will Always Be Blessed Of Heaven
But

Not Necessarily Of The Earth
Whereon We're Just Passing Through
So Do Not Upon Temporal Prosperity Dwell
Or You Shall Find Out Too Late That Heaven
- The Haven Of Rest -
Shall Be The Realm ... Barred
Permanently To You!

All Of God's Gifts Are Good ...

Faith Is A Blessing!
Faith Is A Balm!
Faith Is A Blessing Balm In The Hand Of
The Regenerated Child Of God 

Daily Delivered

And

Daily ... Moment By Moment Applied
By The Hand Of The Receiver Only
For The Receiver's Benefit Solely!

All Of God's Gifts Work ...

Firm Faith Fills!
Firm Faith Thrills!
Firm Faith Utilized

Is 

The Only Way 

Old Satan's Venom Against Us 

Can Ever Be Killed!

Warning, Warning, Warning ...

Please Do Not Set Aside Your Gift Of Faith
Because

If You Do
You Shall Old Satam
Inordinately Thrill! 

Use Your Faith
And
Be To Old Satan
An Ever-New, Always-Sharp

Constantly-Performing Buzz-Kill!

Brethren,

Of Your Gift Of Daily Faith
Ravenously Imbibe
And
Be Gloriously Blessed And Filled

And

Let The Lord Christ Over You 

Be Lovingly Thrilled!

There Is No Profit

In Living To Be Carnal!

Give To The Lord Christ

Your Way And Your Will:

The Return On Your Investment

Is

And

Shall Be

Infinite And Eternal!

Memory Hall: Gratitude!

One Day I Made A Visit To That Memory Hall!
He!

She!

It Is Human
Living
Christian
Sighted
Hearing
Walking
Eating
Sleeping
Healthy Happy
Hopeful Hearing
And
A For-Real Ingrate
If I Know What One Is At All!
Behold A Laodicean Spirit!

Eyes To See: He's Blind As A Bat!
Ears To Hear: He's As Deaf As A Door Nail!
He Tastes And He Sees The Goodness Of
The Creator
The Savior
The Redeemer Friend
And, YetHe Finds No Reason
Sees No Need
Has No Desire
Shows No Willingness
To Approach Unto His Provider
Sustainer
Support
His Surety And Security
His Guardian Guide And Stay
And
Joy-Filled
Say:

Oh, Lord

VESPERS AT THE END OF THE SABBATH: Bill Of Bad! Gift Of Gladness!

At Self-Serving Shoppe
I Bought Me A Sin!
It Looked So Delicious
I Couldn't Wait To Delve In
BUT
Such Was My Shock
When
After I Had Eaten
AND
Cleaned My Mouth With Much Pride
My Sought After Self-Satisfaction
Was To Me Oh So Grossly Denied!

What Where Had I Done Gone Wrong?
Not A Thing That I Could See!
The Sin That I With Deliberation Purchased
Was Totally All 
It Was Billed To Me To Be
BUT
The Pleasure I Had Going In The Door
Was So Far Removed 
On The Swing Of The Door Coming Back
That I Quailed
As I Wondered 
If I Could Get My Investment Back!

Before I Could Say: "REGRET!"
Unintended Consequence Arrived
To Pick Up Its Pay
AND
I Had Time And Enough
To Recognize
"Disobedience Does Not Pay!"
AND
That All Who Encourage Us
To Walk In Our Own Way
Are Always Amongst The First
To Have Much To Say
When
For The Sin Of Presumption
We Most Decidedly Direly Pay!

Why Did I Do It?
How Do I Now Carry This Cross?
Is There A Life Undo Redo?
How Do I Stop Presumption 
From Letting Sin Be My Slave-Driver Boss?
Lord, How Do I Get Myself
Rid Of This Cumbersome Cross?!

"Take Jesus!"

Whaaat!?! Who Said That?!

"I Did!"

Who Are You?

Your Very Best Friend!

So Why Don't I Know You!
My Life Is So Fouled!
I Need A Way Out ...!

Hope Thou In God!

Why Should I?
He Doesn't Care What I Do!

I Asked Him
To Make Me 
Not Do What I Wanted To Do
AND
He Maliciously Let Me
Get Mess All Over 
My Brand New Church Meeting Dress Shoes!

Is That The Truth?

Well ...

When Are You Going To Stop Tempting God?

Ahmmm ...

How Many More Near Escapes Must You Endure 
Before You Do What You Know To Be The Right Things?

But He ...

No more BUTS!

How Long Are You Going To Keep Running Away From God?

He Should ...

... Make You Stop Running?!

Beloved, You Know The Truth
AND
You Know God Will Not Force You To Do Anything.

You Know You Need Almighty God!

Why Won't You Cooperate With His Will and Be Free?

Set Aside Your Self!
Tell The Father The Truth!
Ask For His Help
For
By Blood He Proved
He Totally Loves You!
He Spirit Is Knocking!
Don't Harden Your Heart!
Let Him In!
He Is Calling!
Let Him Into Your Heart!<>

We Would Not Know Sin

Without The Law!

We Would Have No Sin

Without The Flaw!

We'll Not Pay For Our Own Sin

If We Accept Jesus Christ

Whose Spilt Blood

AND

Nailed Body

Give Us A Hammer And A Saw

To Cut Out Sin

And

Hammer Self 

Into Hell's Wide Open Maw!

*********

Get To Really Know 

The Real Jesus

AND

Give Your Real Burdens 

To

The Real Holy God!

*********

Wanna CALL ... THE LIVING GOD?

PRAY! PRAY! PRAY!

TODAY!

and

EVERY DAY!

*********

Don't Step Out

Without

Sending Pray Up

To

Almighty God!

Claim Conditions and Compliance

The Eternal God
Has Claim Upon The Life of Man
For Man Was Revealed 
Living
From The Great Creator's Hand!

Save For A Few Conditions
With Which Man Must Comply
There Is Nothing Burdensome
That Us Living Must Do!

"Keep My Commandments!

They Are Not Burdensome

And 

They Are Just A Few!"

"Love and Trust Me! 

I AM Taking Care Of You!"

"Walk Holy!

I AM Holy!"

"Trust And Obey Me!

I Will Bless You!"

"Call On Me!

I Will Answer You!"

"Come Unto Me!

Give Me Your Burdens!

I Will Give You My Rest!"

"Believe On Me!

I Will Save You!"

"Live For Me!

I Died For You!"

"Stand On My Promises!

My Promises Are True!

My Promises Assuredly Bless 

AND

Keep You!"

In The Day of Your Shame
Confess The Sin
AND
Repent
For Jesus Christ Paid Your Price
AND
You Were Bought 
With The Blood He Spent!

Walk As One Holy!
Your God Is Holy!
Worship Your Living Eternal God!
You Must Worship Him Solely
For Your God IS Jealous
AND
Jealous IS His Name
AND
He Will Not Share His Honor
No Matter Who Makes Other Claims!

Live For The Lord!
Walk With Him
In One Accord!
Keep Your Eye On His Promised Prize
AND
At The Dawning
You Will The Glorious Prize Realize!

Accept The Claim 

of

The Eternal Claimant

who is

Providing An Eternal Home

for

Those Who 

STAKE OUT

Their Own Personal Claim On In Him!

Psst! I Pray To God!

PRAY is:

P utting Earthly
R ealities
A side and
Y ielding to The Holy Spirit's Leading!

I PRAY
Because I Believe In The

P romises
R eserved and Stored in The
A lmighty God's Hand to be
Y ielded Up At The Glorious Awakening!

I PRAY
And
My Heart Feels Full -
Even Though My Pocket is Empty and
My Cupboard is Bare
And
I am Lost under Care
And
I have No Earthly Soul with whom My Burden to Share -
And
By so doing, Life does not Me Scare!

I Believe
That God Can ...!!

God IS No Liar Like Fallen Man
He Says He Will
And
He Can
And
He Does
And
On His Holy Word 
I Stand!

If God is a Liar 
Then
I am Deceived
AND
My Life is a Pyre 
AND
Satan's Lot is Relieved!

BUT ...

I Choose To Believe
On a Faith I Cannot Count
In a Love I Cannot See
But 
Is a Love 
That Works Out
That Lifts Up
That Carries Onward
That Pulls Through
And
Prods Production
That Waits
And
Doesn't Worry
Never Screams
Nor Talks About!

I PRAY 
To The God
That I See Through
The Holy Spirit's Eyes!
I Trust in The God That
The Holy Spirit Knows - No Lies!!

By Faith in What I Cannot See
I Accept The Word of Him who Created Me
And
I Choose to Believe in Him
And
I Expect to Receive from Him
Rather Than to Believe that He Isn't
And 
Find Out - Too Late - That
He Is
And
Could My Sin Have Relieved!

I Ask My God to Help Me 
To Always Accept Truth
No Matter The Messenger
No Matter If It is Tied Pug-Ugly and Loose!
To Always Let Me
Recognize Error, Lies and Deceits
No Matter if The Messenger
Is Wrapped Up in Light and White Robes!
To Let Me Trust The Word of The Word on
The Direction
And
The Path
That Leads to Glorification
At the Trumpet's Last Blast
And
To let Me Walk The Talk
And 
Talk The Walk
In Bright and Glorious Truth
Even if It Causes Me To Be Cut Off
While I'm as Yet a Mere Youth!

I Will PRAY! - By Faith!
I Will Plead for More Grace
AND
I Will Petition for Provision
To Get Me To That Place
Where
By The Love of The Father
I Will See Sweet Jesus' Face!

To Me, To PRAY is to:

P lead
R igorously for the
A bility to
Y ield My Spirit to Yoke with God's!

I Am PRAYING!

What About YOU!?!

Prayer: Your Hand

Oh, Lord

Your Hand of Provision is Ever in My Sight
And I Bless You both Day and Night!

I Thank You for The Grace
That Ever Flows!
I Thank you for The Mercy 
That Never Slows, and
I Thank You for The Hope
Especially when Sorrow Shows!

I Bless Your Holy Name, Lord
For You Know My Beginning and My End, and

I Humbly Offer You My Praise and My Worship!

I Love You, Lord!

Amen.
