VESPERS AT THE END OF THE SABBATH: Do You Ever Wonder What You Are Being Saved From!?!

 

In All That Happens To You
No Matter What Happens To You On Your Travels 
Toward The Eternal City
Never, Ever, Despise The Blessings Of The Lord Christ! 

Beloved, 

When Things Happen To Us
We Are Apt To Cry, Cuss, And Carry On! 
We Never Seem To Wonder What It Is That 
We Are Being Saved From
What It Is That We Are Being Carried Through! 

When We Were Children
And 
We Would Cry About Some Minor Matter
The Elders Would Ask What We Were Crying For! 

Our Response Would Then Cause Them To Say: 

"Stop Crying Right Now 
Or I Will Give You Something To Really Cry About!" 

It Worked Like A Charm! 

Dear Ones, 

Things Can Always Get Worse Than They Are At Present: 
Be Thankful Now! 

Things Will Only Get Better With Christ In Control: 
Go For Grace Now! 

The World Of Sin Naturally Walks In Darkness: 
Head To The Light Of Life Now! 

The Light Of Life Is Jesus Christ The Lord: 
Come To Jesus Now And Be Blessed And Saved! 

Dear Ones, 

Share Your Bread Even If It Is Dry 
And 
Share The Bread Of Life! 

Dry Bread Cast Upon The Waters 
Will Never Come Back To You Dry! 

Bread On Water Multiplies 
And 
Becomes A Soup 
Which, Blessed By The Eternal God
Comes To Your Table 
Seasoned ... And With All The Inclusions
Don't Forget The Dumplings! 

A Thankful Heart 
And 
A Grateful Spirit Make For A Contented Life In Christ 
Who Blesses His Well-Beloved Aka You! 

Keep Walking, Working, Watching
Trusting, Praying, Hoping
Believing, Obeying
And 
Enduring All Things! 
Our King ... Your King ... Is Coming! 

Peace!

New Life In Christ!




Sin Makes You Blind To The Truth! 
Being Blind To The Truth Puts You In A Bind 
And
Being In This Bind 
From Which You Cannot Extricate Yourself By Yourself
Sin Efficiently And Effectively Causes You To Be Marked 
As One To Be Placed In The Garbage Bin 
To Be Burned At The Behest Of Almighty God 
In The Appointed Hour! 

Beloved, 

The Song-Writer
In Agreeing With The Living Word Of The Eternal God, Says: 

"Sin Will Take You Farther Than You Want To Go!" 

Believe It! 

Sin, Like Fire
Does Not Have It In Its Make-Up 
To Just Be Contented With A Lil' Bit
Or A Goodly Portion! 

Sin, Like Fire, Wants All, Everything
And
Will Take It All, No Limits
Unless The Creator ... The Life-Giver
The Bread Of Life
The Water Of Life
The Sustainer Of Life
The Re-Creator Of Life
Puts A Decided Stop To Sin Aka The Raging Fire In Our Life 
With Our Permission ... At Our Request 
Through Our Acceptance Of His Free-To-All Salvation! 

Dear Ones, 

Ask For Help!
Accept The Assistance!
Allow The Holy Spirit To Work In Your Life
And 
Appreciate The Gift Of New Life In Jesus Christ 
- Whom We All Adore - 
In Order To Ascend To Glory To Live With Him Eternally! 

Deny Satan The Father Of Lies
And With Joy 
Accept Jesus Christ The Father Of Lights!

Peace!

Physical Satisfaction Won't Appease Our Spiritual Desire!




What Is The Point Of Having Everything That 
Your Stony Aka Carnal Heart Desires 
At Your Very Fingers To Use And Abuse
Refuse, Keep, Share, And Discard 
According To Your Will 
And 
Be Totally Empty On The Inside
Having No Hope
No Eternal Future
No God-Designed And God-Given Expected End!?! 

Beloved, 

We Are Almighty God's Property 
By Creation 
And
By Redemption! 

We Do Not Have The Right To Destroy 
What Is Not Our Own! 

Why Would We
Knowing To Whom We Belong
What He Has Called Us To Be
And 
What He Has Done
Is Doing
And 
Will Do For Us
Walk Around Like Empty Shells 
And 
Willingly Choose To Eat The Husks That 
The Swine, The Pigs, The Porkers Gladly Eat 
When We May Comfortably Sit At The Kind King's Table 
And 
Have Him Delightedly Serve Us 
Because 
He Sacrificially Loves Us!?! 

Dear Ones, 

An Upward Look 
Followed By An Inward Cleanse 
Is 
In Order For All Of Us! 

Physical Satisfaction 
Will Never Appease A Spiritual Longing! 

The Lord Said So
So Let Us As His Dearly Beloved, Obedient, Children 
Get To The Springs Of Living Water 
And
Then Feed Substantially On The Bread Of Life! 

Almighty God's Grace Is Sufficient 
And
His Mercy Is Free 
And
Jesus Christ's Salvation 
Is 
Gifted To Me And To Thee! 

Please, I Beseech Us All
Let Earthly Pleasures Vainly Call You! 

Peace!

WHAT A BLESSING: The Heavenly All-You-Can-Eat-And-Drink No Man Can Tell You "No!" Buffet






If You Don't Already Know It
Your Name Is Whosoever Will 
And
You May Freely Approach The Bread Of Life 
And 
Take Part In The All-You-Can-Eat Buffet 

And 

For Once In Your Life 
Dare To And Be A Glutton And A Gourmand 
And
With The Inordinate Liberality 
Now Often Foolishly Shown By The Drunkard Class 
Dare To Freely ... Wantonly
Drink Of The Water Of Life! 

The Table Is Spread ... 

Jesus Christ's Flesh Is Bread Indeed
And 
His Blood Is Drink Indeed! 
This Is A Spiritual Feast 
From Which No Created Being May Say To You: "Nay!" 

Beloved, 

Get Thee Hence To The Table Of The King 
And 
Eat And Drink 
And 
Eat And Drink Of The Word That 
Speaks Life From Jesus Christ ... The Word Who Is Life 
And
Relish It! 

Imagine It ...

No Stomach Burn
Stomach Ache
Aching Head Hangover
Falling Down Drunk Into Sin And Self-Loathing
Sleeping In The Gutter With The Enemy
And 
Stinking To High-Heaven 
Covered In The Detritus Of A Life-Long Bender 
Pointing You To Hell And Damnation! 
What A Blessing!

Jesus Christ The King Calls You: Answer! 
He Bids You Eat: Cut, Chew Well And Swallow! 
He Bids You Drink: Acquire A Hollow-Leg 
And 
Scarf Down The Water Of Life 
And 
Don't Stop Until He Appears In The Eastern Sky! 

Peace Be Upon You!

Never Alone!?!

Selfishness
And
Self-Satisfaction
Are Prominent Members Sitting Proud 
In The Front Row In The Big Church!
They Are Known Churls!
Maledictions At Others They Love To Hurl
And
Their Favorite Expression
Often To Be Heard
Is
"Am I My Brother's Keeper!?!"

To The Flock Of The Living God's Sheep
That They Treat Like A Wandering Wild Goat Herd!

Were You To Hear Them
You Would Be Ashamed
For They Are Self-Serving
And
Do Not The Ways Of The Master Proclaim!

They Lie, Cheat, Steal
Short-Change And Gainsay
And
As For Caring For The Least Of These
The Good Lord's Dear Sheep
They Take The Greatest Pleasure
From Finding Ways
Those Things Designated For Others
Covetously For Themselves To Keep!

They Are Not Ashamed To Smooze
To Get What They Choose
And
They Are Not Ashamed To Beg
Even If What They Want Is Bootleg!

They Have Nothing In Their Character Called Shame
And
The Only Thing That Is Certain 
I Tell You Plain
Is
That Where They Are Going
Is Going To Be Hotta Flames!

Feed My Sheep!
     Feed My Lambs!
These Words Of The Master
To Their Souls Bring No Calm
For Service Requires Sweat
Blood, Love, Consideration
And
Real Tears
And
A Laying Of Burdens
At The Feet Of Him
Who For Our Purchased Souls
Does Sacrificially Care!

They Are All About Self!

Self Is A Known Sinner!
The Sinner Sins
And
Sin Is A Sore On The Soul
And
The Soul Bereft Of The Breath Of Life Is Dead!
These Two Are Playing Dead
To See What Kind Of Turn-Out They Shall Receive!
'Nuff Said!

Entreaties To Righteousness Falling On Their Ears
Leave Them "Feeling" Deaf:
They Chose Not To Hear The Nice Notes
On Either The Treble Or Bass Cleft!
Of Common Christian Decency
They Are Totally Bereft!

These Bold Sinners
Begrudge The Snails And The Slugs
A Walk On The Lord's Free Dirt!
They Forbid Mountain Springs
Free Droplets To Squirt!
They Forbid The Ants
A Fallen Rice Grain To Receive
And
They Cuss Out All Who Dare ... Their Words 
God's Great Goodness ... Free To All
Ever To Receive! 

They Are All About Me, Myself And I!
They Love Anything Call Mine!
They Consider Themselves Close To Divine
And
If They Are Not Being Talked About
Oh, Deary Me, How They Will Whine!

Brethren, Beloved,

I'll Tell You A Lil' Secret!
These Two Miscreants Fear Always To Be Alone!
They Feel Alone!
They Do Not Think To Trust In Him
Who For Their Personal Sins Did Atone
And So
They Walk In Uncertainty
Trusting Weak And Corruptible Self
And
Fearful Always Of Other Men's Malignity!
Methinks They Need New Hearts Not Made Of Stone!


Dish-Out Does Feel Real Good
But
Pay-Back Is A Female Dog!
So Much For Living
Like A Lic'rish
Never-Satisfied
Wide-Mout' Hog!

Here's A Well-Known Secret ...

Things Cannot Satisfy The Soul
Be Ye Coward, Timid Or Bold
So If You Are Feeling
Alone In The Crowd
You May Want To Take A Serious Look
At The Requirements Of Him
Who Shall Come To Earth Again
On The Angel-Cloud!








Look Within ...

We Say That We Follow Jesus 
But 
How Many Of Us Follow Jesus 
And
Always Do Those Things 
Which Always Please The Father 
So That We Are Not Left Alone!?!

Total Obedience To Almighty God 
Is 
A Necessity 
If
We Desire To Enjoy The Benefits 
And 
Reap The Rewards Of The Glorious Kingdom! 

Are You Feeling Alone!?! 
Then Take A Moment ... Or Two
And
Check Your Present Level Of Obedience
Take Corrective Measures
Seek To Please The Holy God In All That You Do 
And Then
You Will Know For Sure That 
You Are Not Alone
And
Do Walk Not Alone! 


The Blessings
Of
The Eternal, Holy, God
Await
The Obedient!

Truth And Light: Error ...!?!





Oh, Woe Is Me!
I Am Undone!
Truth Has Knocked Me Upside-Down
And I Cannot Get Up Nor Turn Around!

Liar! Liar!
Your Pants Is On Fire!
Truth Will Never Knock Anyone Down!
Truth Is The One Who Picks People Up!
Your Words, Friend, Are Truly Messed Up!

Did I Give You Leave To Speak!?!
Are You A Norwegian Or Maybe A Greek!?!
I Interacted With Truth
And Now I Am On The Floor
So Either Help Me Up
Or Step Outside My Side Door!

Don't Be Huffy!
My Name Ain't MaGuffy
But
You're Telling An Untruth
Whilst At The Same Acting Toplofty
And
Unarguably ... Mighty Stuffy!

Who Are You, And Why Are You Here
And Who Invited You To Seat Yourself
In My Best Comfy Chair!?!

I Am Light
And
Truth Is My Closer Than Blood, Brother
And
Wherever You See One
You Shall Surely See The Other!

Uh, Ohhhhhh ...!!

Yup! That Sounds About Right!
I Was Present
And
I Saw The Fight
And
It Was Error Who Threw You On The Floor
Because
Truth Had Enlightened Your Mind
And
It Had Made Cherished Error
Well And Truly Bitterly Sore!

Okie Dokie! My Bad!

Please Be Good
And 
Choose To Get Up
Because
You Are Lost If You Choose To Stay Down! 

Truth Must Be Told ...

Error Is A Clown
A Scary Clown Fishing
Causing You To Go Wishing
In The Well Of Sin
Where All Who Enter
Are Dead Men Walking
Unless
Until

They See Their Need For Salvation
And 
Turn To The Master Of
The Winds And The Waves
And
Choose On The Bread Of Life
Constantly, Constantly, To Feed!

Take Warning ...

Don't Act
Don't Be 
A Broken Reed!
See To It That The Truth For All Ages
You Diligently Heed!
Acknowledge And Accept
That In Your Life
The Lord Of Love
Light And Life
Is All Has Everything You Need
To Succeed
And
Cut The Cord Want
And
Forswear Greed! 

Wants Are Not Needs
And
For Gaining Soul Salvation
Remember That Self
Is 
A Pot-Bellied, Sway-Back, Broken-Down
Going Nowhere Steed!

Trust The Lord Christ
And
Believe Truth
And
See The Comforting, Enlivening, Light
And
Let The Holy Spirit Lead!
To The Eternal God
You Shall Then Be A Delight!

Fight Error
And
Champion Truth
And
Live In The Land Of Eternal Youth!
Peace!

HAPPY SABBATH + ... When You Finally And Fully Realize That God IS All!





He Didn't Just Get Up
One Morning Bright And Clear
And
Boasting, Say:

My Soul Rests In God!

I Shall Not Be Moved!


A Man Of The Land
David

The Shepherd Of The Sheep
Saw The Majesty
And
The Glory Of The Great God
Arrayed About Him
Ready To Tell 

And 
Teach About Him Who
Alone
Is 

Worthy Of Our Worship, Prayers And Praise!

David Was Obedient To The Great Teacher!
David Listened
David Learned
David Loved
And
David
The Leader Of The Sheep
Was Lead
To The Green Pastures
And 

With Living Water Was Filled
And 

With The Bread Of Life
Satisfyingly Fed!

Almighty God 
Is 
In His Head
In His Looking
In His Seeing!

Almighty God 
Is 
In His Heart
In His Understanding!

Almighty God 
Is 
His Cause For ... Being!

David Indicted The Matter ...

Thou God Seest Me!
Thou God Lovest Me!
Thou God Hearest Me!
Thou God Cares For Me!
Thou God Shelterest Me!
Thou God Blesseth Me!
Thou God Deliverest Me!

And

In The Hope Of Faith, Declared:

As For Me, Lord

My Soul Followeth Hard After Thee

And
Even Though The Enemy
As A Flood Surrounds Me
Even Though I Walk Through The Valley 
Of
The Shadow Of Death
Even Though I Sleep The Sleep Of Death
I Will Behold Your Face
In Righteousness!


I Will Be Satisfied 
When
I Awake With Your Likeness!


David's Heart Was Almighty God's ...

Oh, To Love The Lord God
Better
Than I Love Life! 

Oh, To Trust God
More
Than The Evidence Of Life's Strife!

Oh, To Know That The Living God 
Is
Best
For Me
And
To Walk Before Him
As A Servant
A Child
A Student
And 
Do His Bidding
Willingly
Faithfully!

Almighty God 
Is 
My Refuge
My Rock
My Defense
My Salvation!

The Eternal God 
Is 
My Shepherd
My Hope
My Help
My God!

The True And Living God
Is 
My All
My Beginning
My Living
My End
My Salvation!

David Dedicatedly Sought After The Lord
And
Found Him
But
He Did Not Keep The Good News To Himself!

David Avidly, Gladly
Shared The Good News
And, 
Now 
I
You, Me
We
Can Say ... Today
In This Hour
At This Very Moment:

Lord, 

I Am Looking For You!

Help Me To Find You! 
Please Find Me!
Please Save Me! 
Please Feed Me! 
Please Restore My Soul!
Oh, Lord
Please Receive My Prayer!


Jesus Christ The Lord
Is
My God
My Hope
My Redeemer
The Sure Bestower Of
The Heavenly Reward!

Take The Lord God At His Word!






Those Who Oppose The Living God
Practice Pride
AND
The Call Of Almighty God's Holy Spirit
They Actively Defy!
They Are Wilful
AND
Wayward
AND
No Respecters Of Holy God's Truth
AND
They Take Much Pleasure In Gainsaying
AND
Acting Mindfully Abstruse!

Vanity
Is 
A Vexation Of Spirit
AND
Investigation Into Too Many Books Likewise
AND
Walking Wisely In One's Own Eyes
Sets One Up To Be Used
As A Devilish Device!

Be Careful, Ye Wayward!
Be Circumspect, Ye Vain!
Be Mindful, Ye Curious
When Into The Almighty God's Business 
You Take The Budget Airplane
For
The Eternal God Is Not A Respecter Of Persons
AND
What Is Given Into Our Keeping
Is Available For Us To Know
BUT
That Which The Glorious God Has Kept In His Own Counsel
- Don't Be Bold -
You Will The Answer Never Know!

Be A Child ... You Need The Righteous God's Teaching!
Be A Servant ... You Need Blessing God's Leading!
Be A Pilgrim Walking Through This Fleeting Life!
Be A Stranger To Sinful Ways
AND
Of The Holy Hand Do Not Let Go
For
Those Who Will See The Lord Of Life In Peace
Will Never Go With The Wicked World's Flow!

Study ... To Show Thy Self Approved!
Learn ... The Ways Of The Lord!
Live ... With A Gentle Touch On The World
For
This World Is Not Our Home
AND
We Must Treat It As Such
AND
Not Raise It Up To Be Much!

Do Not Envy The Evil!
Do Not Pamper Pride!
Do Not Greet The Greedy
AND
Do Not With The Leprosy Of Sin Abide!

Take The Lord At His Word!
Take The Word For Bread And Eat!
Take The Water Of Life And Drink
AND
Do Not Practice Deceit!

Rescue The Perishing!
For Them
The Holy Spirit Is The Refreshing!
Take Time To Care For The Lost And Weary Soul
AND
Show Them
That Heaven With Christ Is To Be The Soul's Sole Goal!

VESPERS AT THE END OF THE SABBATH: PRAYER : Lord, Seed Me!

 Dear Lord, 
I Am Walking!

Lead Me!

Lord,
I Am Hungry!
Feed Me!

Lord, 
I Am Learning!
Teach Me!

Lord,
I Am Fertile Soil!
Seed Me!


Father,
I Cannot Know

How

To My Body
My Spirit Is Tied!
I Cannot Know
How Many Tear Drops
In This Life I Have Cried!
I Do Not Know
How Many Times, Lord
I Have You Defied
But
I
- By You Holy Spirit -
Know
That Through Jesus Christ's Merits
If I Am
Obedient
Faithful
Enduring
Trusting
And
True
I Shall Be Glorified!
I Shall Live With You!


Faith Works!
Love Trusts!

Hope Talks!
Obedience Walks!
Trust Grabs!
Fear Fails!
And
Folly Sails!
Oh, Lord
Let It Be So
So That I May Grow
In Grace
Unto Your Visible Salvation!



Let My Walk Talk

And
Let My Way Say

That To You
I Truly Pray
And
That My Fruit
Grows Not From A Tree
Where The Underground Staff
Holds Sway!


Help Me, Lord
To Daily Deny The Liar!

Help Me, Lord
Daily To Climb The Mount
Reaching Heights
Higher And Higher!

Help Me, Lord
To Reach Beth-El
The House Of God
Where I May Feast
In Bethlehem
The House Of Bread
Where I May Feed On

The Very Bread Of Life
Prince Immanuel!


Try Me, Lord
So That Out Of The Fire
- Rid Of Defiling Dross -
I May Emerge As Purest Gold!

Fan Me, Lord
As Good Wheat
And
Rid Me Of The Chaff Of Life
So That I May Be
At Your Banqueting Table
To Your Heart A Delight
And
A Suitable
Sweet-To-Your-Nostril
Treat!

Wash Me, Lord
As The Heavenly Fuller Would
Ridding Me Of The Defiling Spots
And
Marks Of Sin
And

Clothe Me
In Your Righteousness
So That The Shame Of My Nakedness
Is Not Exposed
As I
- In Life -
Go Walking
Through Its Highs And Lows!


Help, Dear Lord
For I Know

And
Acknowledge
That It Is You That I Need
And
I Accept, Father
That It Is You Alone
That Provides
The Spiritual Nourishment
Upon Which I Need To Feed!



Please Bless Me, Lord

With Discernment
And
Wisdom
And
Wisdom's Understanding
And
Help Me To Live Up
To The Price
That For My Soul Was Paid
So That
- For Me -
My Lord Was Not
In Vain
In The Cold Grave Laid!


Teach Me, Lord
To Know My Days

So That I Will No Longer Sin
Against Thee!
Have Mercy And Bless
For In Jesus' Name, I Plead!
I Love You, Lord!
AMEN.
