VESPERS AT THE END OF THE SABBATH: Get Thee Hence!









Wolfie was Caught Between Christ The Rock and Hard Place Cash!
He loved The Cross!
He loved The Cash!
But ... For Good and For Better
He is Building Up The Best Stash!

Ruled by Two Desires and
"Blessed" with High Flown Tastes
Something had to give for
The Cross was Proving a Hard Case!

Wolfie had Huffed and
Wolfie had Puffed
But he could not Bring God's House down
So, he thought up a New Game Plan
And became The Architect of Church Town!

He became The Real Estate Magnate
He became The Banker Extraordinaire
And he became The Public School Principal
And The Good Works Volunteer!

He owns The Food Processing Company
He owns The Farm Land too, I hear
He owns The Transport and The Airport
And of The Town Council he owns one or two
And it is said by The In-crowd
He owns of The Preachers many more than a few!

Things around Town are in Turmoil
Hearts are in a Roiling Stew
Problems are a-Boiling
And Prayers are Going Up by for Me and for You!



THE OPPOSITION:

Divide and Conquer
Command and Commandeer
Cut-off and Separate
Subsume and Obfuscate!

And ...


THE DEFENSE:

Prayer and Supplicate
Repent and Confess
God Validate
Love Your Brother - Don't Hate!


The Faithful are God Trusting
The Trusting have Jesus Christ's Faith
All are Beloved of The Master
And none Fall for Things that Titillate!

Wolfie was in Church Town's Sheep-Fold
And even gave Great Offerings
But, his Singing was so Off-key
The Believers have No Problem
His Song Discovering!

Forewarned, The Believers had No Trouble Accepting
That Sheep and Goats Together Will Grow
That Tares and Wheat will Show at The Harvest
With Tares Separated out for The Burning
And Wheat to The Barn to Safely go!

Sooooo ...


"Wolfie, your Days are Numbered!
Wolfie, your Beard you may let long Grow!
Your Heart is not Benevolent, and
Your Garments are not Blood-washed
To Render them White as The Driven Snow!

We may only be a Remnant
But we are cut of God's Linen Cloth, and
We are Maintaining Integrity!
We don't Bend to, Bow for, nor Worship
Pretty, Putrid, Polished Gold Calves!

Get Thee, Hence
Thou Spawn of The Devil!
Divide and Conquer will indeed Carry The Day
Jesus Christ Conquered Your Master The Devil
And just like him, you will for Your Sins Personally Pay!"


*******

Don't Cross The Dividing Line!!

GOD RULES 
IN 
THE AFFAIRS OF MEN!!

Think Grace and ... Thank Mercy!!



The Plan Has a name
Salvation The Fame
The Lord Ever Glorious
Accepts all even The Notorious!

Hear The Glad Story
Listen Well and Accept
That God is Ever Faithful
More Than Even We See or Can Ever Expect!

Repent of All Sin - Don't Hold 
To Self Please Don't Pin
Hopes, Trusts and Aspirations or
We'll Satan's Trap Fall Right In!

Confess Sin and Be Saved
Jesus Christ Our Way Paved
With The Blood of His Sacrifice
So The Father Will Accept All Christian Believers True!

Be Baptized! Be Made Anew!
Away With Flesh! Old Life Eschew!
Think Grace and Thank Mercy for
Blessings From God on All Faithful Believers True!

Walk By Faith in New Sight
On The Glory Road of God's Light
Be Faithful! Be Faithful!
Jesus Christ Is Returning To Take To His Home 
The Faithful Departed and All Living Believers True!

HAPPY SABBATH + God Is By My Side!






The Day started out with:


"That's Impossible!"

Then, with Time, I heard:


"Maybe ... but with Great Difficulty!"

By The End of The Period
Loudly was heard:


Task Accomplished!
God Is By My Side!



I sat and Thought for a Moment
Great Cogitations in The Head
If this scenario was not a Metaphor for The Life of Christian True Believers
I don't know What Else could be said!

God sends us out on Missions
Within which is our Reason for Growth
But Nothing will be Accomplished
If we Behave like Common Sloths!

Accept The Mission!
Recognize - of Our Self - that It Definitely Can't be Done!
Get out our Working Shoes!
Start out - Walk Chip Run!

Turn to The Father!
Raise up a Heartfelt Prayer!
Trust The Spirit's Leading!
Get Going!
Move On In With Prayer:


Father,
You've Sent Me on this Mission
This surely means that it Can Be Done
But ... I see Great Difficulty ...
I Love You, and I Trust You
You are My Guide and Stay
I'll be the Willing Body
Will You be My Faithful Guide?"

I'm Walking!
I'm Praying!
I'm Trusting!
God is Surely Leading The Way
And ... Before Long
I Get The Message:


You're Done!
Task Accomplished!
Put Today's Ledger Away!

Father, You are My Master!
Father, You are My King!
Father, You are My Music!
Give a Listen, Lord
As I Sing:


The Way - it may be Rocky
The Road - it may be Long
The Spirit fills Me with such Music
That I Break out in Glad Song!

I Sing A Song of Thanks for Your Mercy
For Your Blessing Me on The Way
I Trust in Christ, My Savior
And I'm Walking in The Way He Says!

Thanks, Father, for Your Provision
Thanks, Father, for Answering My Prayers
Thanks for The Road, and The Journey
With You Always Leading
I Shall Arrive Safely Home
At The Closing of Earth's Days!

I Love You, Lord!

No Bells and Whistles Required!

Steadfast Belief in God!
