HAPPY SABBATH + Seek To Build! + PRAYER: Grant Me The Gift, Dear Father!

Blessed Assurance
Constant, Able, Help
Eternal Security

And
Perfect Peace
Are Gifts 

- Through The Grace Of Almighty God -

From Jesus Christ The Lord

The Hands Of Love
The Redeemer
And
The Restorer Of Each And Every Believing Human!

Satan 

Is 

The Liar

The Accuser Of The Brethren

The Enemy Of Souls
The Cause Of Every Human's Sin

And
He, It Is
Who Insinuates
Interposes Himself
Between Our Self And Our Savior, Jesus Christ
The Sun Of Righteousness
Our Soon Returning Greatly Desired King!

This Purveyor Of Sin

You Must Aggressively Resist!

We Must Not Turn Aside To Fables
And
Be As Those Who Sought To Build
That Sinful Tower Called Babel!

We Are To Seek To Build
The Character Of Christ In Our Own Lives
And
Step Away From The Broken Cisterns
That Cannot Satisfy A Need
No Matter How Much Of Our Heart's Desire
It Is Purported That They Shall Hold!
Do Not By Willful Sinning Be Sold!

Salt Of The Earth!
Light Among Men!
Let Not Satan Cause You To Doubt
To Tremble In Ungodly Fear
So That From Performing Your Holy Mission
He Will Secure A Rout!
Don't Buy That Which He Touts!

Walk In Love!
Live In Hope!
Help Is At Thy Right Hand:
Reach Out For The Son Of Man!

You Confessed Your Sin!
You Repented Sincerely!
Do Not Look Back At What Was!
Walk Ahead With Christ's Hand Of Help
And
You, Brethren Beloved
Shall Assuredly See Clearly!

The Lord Of Life Loves Personally Loves You Dearly!

Jesus Saves!
Jesus Redeems!
Jesus Restores!
Trust Jesus

And
Abide In Christ's Love
Enveloped In Peace
And
No Created Being

Fallen Angel ... Demon

Satan, Himself

Nor Demon-Inspired

Nor Demon-Possessed Man
Can Ever Stop You
From Enjoying The Welcome Home Banquet
For The Eternally Blessed!
The Lord Is Preparing A Wondrous Feast!

Stop Trading In Pharasaic Yeast!
It Is Manufactured By The Eternally Damned Beast!

Jesus Christ, Alone, Saves From Sin!

Trust Him

And

From Besetting, Pet, And Cultivated Sins

You Shall Surely Be Released!

PRAYER:

Father,

I Come Because I Trust You!

I Bless Your Holy Name

And

I Bow Before You

With A Grateful, Thankful, Heart!

I Love You, Lord

And

Into Your Holy Hands

I Commend My Spirit

For It Is By Your Love That

I Live And Breathe

And

Have Any Being!

Please Grant Unto Me

The Gift That Will Help Me

To Remain Faithful

Obedient

And Which

By Enduring Faith

Will See Me Standing On My Lot

In The Day Appointed!

Please Continue To Bless Me

To Do Your Will

To Do All Things According To Your Desire

To Bless The Brethren By My Living

And

To Praise My God

In All Ways For The Rest Of My Days

Or Until Jesus Christ Comes

To Take Me Home

To Be With Him Forevermore!

I Ask These Petitions In Working Faith

Nothing Wavering

And

In The Blessed Name Of The Holy Jesus

Our Soon Returning King, Lord, And God!

Thank You For Hearing And Answering Prayer!

AMEN!

TIRED OF RUNNING: The Soul's Desire!

Intellect, Emotions And Will
Were In The Midday Sermon At

The Christian Ministry Mission Int'l, Inc.
Ready Some Sweet Soul To Fill
Either As Individuals, A Duet Or A Trio! 

The Menu Was Hearer's Choice!

Some Parishioners Came Only To Be Thrilled!

Maxi Peace-Meal Was An Intellectual Fraud!
He Loved To Say "Book-It!"
But
He Was An Ephraim!
He Was Into False Gods!

Merlene Mansour Was Excitable
Loving Bells And Whistles

Thrills And The Feels
But
Was Searching For A Good And Strong Tree
And 

Was In The Preacher's Hand
So Much Malleable Putty!

She Seemed Not To Realize That It Is Jesus Christ

Who Saves

And

Not The Tree!!

Milton Burly
Had Kissed The World And Liked It
And
Had Driven Too And Fro Around It
An Amazing Time Or Two
But
He Had Had His Fill

- He Had Learned From Wise King Solomon -
And
Was Seriously Looking To Put To Better Use His Will
So, He Was Decidedly Open That Day 

To The Holy Spirit's Call
Ready
Before The Lord Of Life
In Total Surrender To Fall
If ...!

What's That!?!

The Lord Of Life
Our Creator
Our Redeemer
Our One True Friend Says:
Come ... Let Us Reason Together!

Wait A Minute!

I Can Actually Have A Back And Forth Conversation

With The God Of The Universe!?!!

He Is Saying To You, Oh, Searching Soul:
Call On Me And I Will Answer You
And Show You Great And Mighty Things
About Which You Know Nothing!

What!?! 

The Lord GOD Eternal Is Willing

To Teach Me Personally!?!!

The Holy God
Is Asking All You Who Labor
And Are Heavy Laden With Sorrow
With Needs
Cultivated Tendencies
Inherited Tendencies
You Who Need Unfailing Love
Hope
Blessings
Peace ... And Rest
And Forgiveness
And Cleansing From Cherished Sins
To Come Unto Him ... As You Are!

He Will Wash You Of Your Scarlet Sins
And He Will Make Them White As Snow!
If Your Sins Are Red Like Crimson
He Will Make Them As Wool!
He Will Make You Anew!
He Will Accept You Into His Heart
Into His Family
And He Has Promised To Provide A Place
Personally ... For You
In One Of The Mansions
In His Father's House!

Eh! Eh! 

A Personal God

Means He Knows My Name!

It Makes Sense! 

It Feels Right!

I Can Hear His Voice Calling My Name!

He Knows Me!

Jesus Christ Says To You, Sinner
And That Means Me, Too:

It Is Not His Desire That Any One Of You Should Be Lost
And He Has Plainly Indicated His Will
By Adding This Promise:

All That The Father Hath Given To Me

Shall Come To Me

And He That Cometh To Me

I Will In No Wise Cast Out!

But, Beloved

There Is A Proviso!

Rats!

There's Always A Catch!

Confess Your Sin!

Repent Of The Past!

Do A U-Turn!

See That You Turn To Christ!

Now!

Today!

Tomorrow Is Not Promised!

Hello!!

I Can Do This!

If I Confess My Sin

He Is Faithful And Just

To Forgive ... Me ... Of My Sin

And To Cleanse Me Of

All ... All ... All Unrighteousness!

He Will Give You His Character For Your Stained One!
Give Up Your Sin!
Be Bold!
The Door Of Mercy Is Here And Now
Open Wide! 

Take The First Step
And With Him, Forevermore
He Invites You To Abide!

Abiding Love!
Amazing Grace!
Mercy Is Free
For Me, For Thee! 

Do Not Look Back
Nor Turn Side To Side!
From Sin Turn Around
And Through All The Changing Scenes Of 

Your Life
Almighty God's Grace And Mercy
Will Abound!

Don't Lie To Yourself!
Don't Hide!

... And I Get Faith For Free! 

Mercy For Free! 

There's Provision!
There's Protection!
There's Power ...!

... I Must Give Praise!

Lord, 

I Make The Transaction! 

I Am Yours! 

Please Fill My Heart! 

Help Me To Change My Ways!

 

I Give You My Will!

I Long To Belong To You! 

I Desire Everlasting Days!

Draw Me Nearer, Lord! 

Do Not Pass Me By! 

I See Your Hand Extended! 

Help Me To Hold On To You! 

I Do Not Want Ever Again 

To Believe Satan's Pretty Lies!

I Want Around Zion One Great Day To Fly!

I Desire To Drink Of The Water Of The River Of Life!

I Desire To Eat Of The Tree Of Life!

Lord, Please Help Me!

I Surrender! 

I Desire The Lord Christ!

IT'S NOT A GAME: Cooperating With Almighty God

Almighty God
Has A Helping Hand
Upon The Planet Earth!
It, My Friend
Is 
The Hand Of Man ... Working
As Evidenced By Those Who Are Possessors Of
The New Birth Now
And
Shall Be Inheritors Of That That Is Called 
The Eternal Life On The New Earth!

Those Who Work Faithfully
In Cooperation With The Good King
Have Jesus Christ's Righteousness
Aka Right-Doing
Going Before Them
Working In Them
Caring For The Sick
Feeding The Poor
Succoring The Widow And The Orphan
And
They Do Not Consider It To Be A Chore!

The Obvious Outcome Of Partnering
With The Divine Majesty
Is 
Having Him Protecting Our Rear!
He Is Our Rereward
- He Covers Our Back -
And
It Is His Glory
That Shields Us During Satanic
Demonic Attacks!

Christ In Us
Is
Our Hope For Glory!
Let Us Let His Character Be Competently
Completely
Replicated In Us!
Let Us, In Him, Live The Life Of The Just!

The Faithful Few ...

We Are Not Ashamed To Be Called
The Holy Children Of God
And
We Have No Converse
With The Unfruitful Works Of Darkness
And, As Such
- For This Against-The-Wise-World Departure -
We Land In The Crosshairs Of The Fraud!

But ... 

Our God ... Almighty
Is
Almighty God
The One To Whom We Give Glory, Laud And Honor
And
He, Being Faithful
Just, Loving, Kind And Ever True
Keeps His Holy Promise
And
Will Honor Our Faithfulness To Him:
That's The Truth!

The Deal ...

Cooperation With The Lord
Is 
A Contract Written In Innocent Red Blood
On A Parchment Of Character Clean, Bright And White
And
You Can Rest Assured That He Who Signs
Your Contract
Will From Your Attaining Unto His Salvation
Never, Never, Ever Turn Back!

It Won't Be Long ...

Be A Good Steward!
Please Bear The Weight Of The Work
As He Bears Your Weight
As He Graciously Carries You
And
Know Of A Surety
- No Doubting ... Nothing Wavering -
He Will Always Take Care Of You!

Spiritual Eyesight ...

The Eyes Of Faith 
Do Not Need Corrective Lenses
The Way To Eternal Life To See!
Let Not The "Yeah!" And "Nay!"
According To Worldly Wisdom Move You!
Let The "YEAH!" And "AMEN!" Of The Holy God
Move You Faithfully All Your Life Long!

Walk Faithfully ... In Perfect Accord

With The Living Holy God!

He Is To Trusted

Because

He Sacrificially Loves Us

And

He's Not The Fraud!

PRAYING: Delight Thyself Also

When You Have A Need
What Do You Do!?!

Pray, Of Course!

When You Have A Desire
What Do You Do!?!

Pray, Of Course!

So, Should I Conclude From This
That For All That We Want
We Should Approach Almighty God!?!

Yes ... And No!

Come On!
I Thought You Were A Godly Man!?!

I Am
And
I Desire To Be Wise Unto Soul Salvation!

What Do You Mean!?!

Friend,
Anything That I Believe That I Need
Think That I Want
Or Heartfelt, Desire
If It Cannot Be Righteously Framed
And
Humbly Presented Before The Holy God
By The Professing Godly Faithful Person
Without Affront To The Character Of The Eternal
Then ... It Cannot Be Formulated As Prayer!

To Do So Will Be Presumption On Our Part
And
Presumption Is A Sin
And
All Sin Is Lawlessness
And
Unless You Repent
You Shall Earn Sin's Wages
And
You Shall, In Your Known Sin, Die!

Furthermore

It Is Also Disrespectful To The Loving Father
Who Is Raising You Right
And
In Whose Favor ... Supposedly

You Truly Delight!

Look At It This Way ...

Would You ... In Godly Fear

Looking Toward The Consummation Of Your Joy 

In Jesus Christ The Righteous
Go To Our Father Who Resides In Heaven
- Who Has The Earth For His Footstool
And Clouds Of Mighty Angels Excelling In Strength
As His Personal Chariots -
With The Confidence Of The Faithful Just
And

Boldly Stand Before His Throne Of Available Grace

Where He Blessed You With His Free Mercy
And 

In Supreme, Unabashed, Confidence Say:

Father, Beloved

You Made Me A Man

And Against Your Will

I Am In Consuming Love With A Gorgeous Man

And I Need Help To Kill My Wife

So That He And I Can Be Together!

I Also Need Assistance To Rob The Local Bank

To Purchase A Joy-House For Us

And To Refurbish The House That I, Covetous, Want

That Belongs To My God-Fearing Neighbor!

I Also Need Direction 

On How To Construct An Altar Of Worship

And An Effigy Of Lust To His Honor 

That I May Bow Before It In Adulation On The Sunday-Sabbath

Even As I Bare False Witness Against His Faithful Wife

And Make You Jealous 

And Willingly, Wittingly, Wantonly

Dishonor You!

I Know This Breaks All Your Commandments

But I Need It To Feel Complete

So Give Me My Desire

And I Will Ever Be Grateful For The Treat!

Lord, Have Mercy!

I'm Not Claiming That!
YOU Would Have Had To Have Lost Your Tiny Mind
Lost Touch With Reality
Lied To Yourself
Signed Up With Satan
And Are Chain-Smoking Magic Mushrooms
While Sniffing Angel Dust
And Eating Marijuana Brownies 

Each Weighing A Half Pound!!

No Christian Would Ever Do A Thing Like That!

I Believe You Meant To Say
No Converted Regenerated Christian
Would Ever Do That
Because
Things Like This Scenario Are Playing Out 

Amongst The Hired Shepherds
And
The "Believers"
Even As We Speak!

You Lie!

I Speak The Truth!!
Check The Newspapers
Local And International
Go Back Even As Short As Just Six Months
And
All Will Be Understood!

Lying To Yourself Is Folly!
Besmirching Almighty God's Holy Name
- For Which He Is Jealous -
Is Clearly Asinine
Demonic
Satanic
And
All Who Will This Unholy Path Take
Shall ... With The God-Fake
At The Appointed Time
A Fire And Brimstone Bath
- With Finality -
Undesired
Take!

Brethren,

Let Us Be Honest

And

Speak The Truth For The Age!

No Human Will Stand Before God ... Pardoned

Who, In This Life

Did Not Purge Himself 

- By Almighty God's Grace

Through The Power Of The Holy Spirit -

Of Known Sin's Taint!

Presumption Is A Sin!

Disobedience Is As Witchcraft!

Lies Are Of The Devil

And

Hireling Shepherds Who Mislead Almighty God's Flock

Will Suffer, In Abundance, His Holy Wrath!

There Will Be No Blanket Conversion Of Humanity!

Only Those Who Forsake Sin, Self And Satan

Will Appear Before Christ The King In Peace

And

It Is In Our Best Interests

The Preserved Word Of The Living God 

Daily To Read

To Study 

To Show Ourselves Approved!

We Must Also Pray And Persevere

Being Instant With Pray As The Need Arises

And

Being Constant With Praying

Because

It Is Only Through Prayer That We Will Survive!

I Caution Us All ...

The Name It And Claim It Phenomenon

Is 

Going To Land Many Of Us In Hell!

Just Because You Want Something

Does Not Mean That It Is Fit To Be Presented

Before Our Creator God

Our Savior

Our Redeemer

Our King ... Our Judge!

Be Very Circumspect In What You Take To The Lord!

Our Own Soul's Salvation

Is 

Our Own Responsibility

And

It Behooves Us Well

To Lean ... Heavily

On Jesus Christ The Lord

For, It Is He, Alone

That Purchased Our Pardon

And

Who Has In His Holy Hand

Our Heavenly Reward!

Please Do Not Place The Lord

On The Same Level With Fallible Priests, Pastors

Gurus, Shamans Nor The Popular Pope! 

There Is Not One Among Them

That Can Save Themselves

Nor You, Nor Me

From Being Into The Lake

Burning With Fire And Brimstone

Summarily, At The Appointed Time, Tossed!

Praying Is A Privilege!

Use It Right!

Praying Is A Duty!

It Does The Heart Of Almighty God

Totally, Totally, Delight!

Praying ... With The Right Attitude

Is 

Power For Today

And

Every Day

So, Trust The Lord

And, Again

Pray Aright

- It Is Your Blessing -

And

Let Old Satan

For Your Confessed

And

Repented-Of Known Sin

Rightfully ... At The Appointed Time

Pay!

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

Don't Throw Your Blessing Away!

VESPERS AT THE END OF THE SABBATH: PRAYER ... Living By Jesus Christ's Faith!

Thank You, Lord
For My Spared Life
For A Roof Over My Head
For Health, Strength
For Friends And Family
And
The Blessed Assurance
That My Lord Christ 
Who Is The One To Come
Will Come
And Shall Not Be Silent!

Father,
I Am Thankful For The Saving Grace
That Assures Of A Place
In The Eternal City
And
I Am Immeasurably Grateful
For The Sacrifice
In The Person Of The Beloved
The Holy Jesus
That Makes It Possible
And
Permits Me The Faith
To Say With Conviction:

Father,
I Believe - Cure Me Of Any Unbelief!
I Trust - Cut Off My Access
To Satan's Best Weapon
Called Rightly Debilitating Doubt!

I Hope - Help Me To Stand Firm
In The Faith Of Jesus
So That The Rising Clamour Of The Rabble
Cannot Cause My Tree To Bear Wild Fruit!

I Love - Help Me To Love In Truth And Purity
And Not Look Back At What Was
Nor Look Down At What Is
But
To Look Up And Forward
To Him Who Is On The Way
Perfectly Patient
Permitting Patience To Do Her Work
Via The Fiery Trials
That All The World Must Face
And That All The Persevering Faithful
Will Willingly Endure
So That We Will Be Saved Forevermore!

Father,
Forgive Me My Folly
And Help Me
For I Believed I Was Rich
And Had The World By The Tail!
I Had Plenty And Needed Nothing
But All That I Was
Was To Sin 

A Regulation Slave! 

I Gratefully Acknowledge My Weakness
So That I May Claim Your Strength!

Father,
My Eyesight Is Poor - Apply Unsparingly
The Heavenly Eyesalve!
My Money Is Rusting And Cankered -
I Don't Want It To Testify Against Me
On The Great Day Of Vengeance
So I Apply To You
For A Share Of Heaven's Gold!

Lord,
Have Mercy!
Sin Made Me Fair To Naked
So Please Give To Me Your Garment Of Righteousness
That Linen Robe Clean And White
So That The Shame
My Shame
Be Not To The World Exposed!

Dear Lord,
I See My Need
For My Soul's Savior
For My Soul To Be Reconciled
To My Father
To My Maker
And
I Reach For The Hand
That Is Help
My Hope
My Salvation
And
I Bow My Head
In Convicted-Of-Sin Worship
And
Ask For The Holy Spirit's Working
So That I Am Truly Converted
To The Way Of Cross
As I Walk Renewed
Protected
Sheltered
On The Narrow Way To Surpassing Glory!

I Claim Jesus Christ As Mine!
Grant Unto Me The Character Of The One Divine
And
Bless Me To Arrive Safely
By Your Grace
In The Land Called Sublime!

I Worship You, Lord
For I Honor
Trust And Love You
And Bless You With Unfeigned Lips!

Hear My Prayer

For You Are My God

And I Hold You In Godly Fear!

Please Show Me Again

That For Me You Do Care!

In Jesus Christ's Holy Name

I Pray, And Humbly Plead!

AMEN.
