Consequences Of Choice!

Well ...

Only Jesus Christ Saves
So
I Hope That You Know That
Consequences
Are Bound Up In Your Contrary Choice!

I Hope That You Know
That It Is Your Voice
That Made The Choice
AND
It Is Your Own Personal Decision
Whether You Will Cry Or
Rejoice!

I Guess So!
My Life!
My Voice!
My Choice!
Got A Problem With It?!

Not At All!
I'm Just Saying
Your Party!
Your Funeral!
Your Loss!
Your Gain!

If You Live A Lie And Die
In Jesus Christ's Presence
You Shall Mourn And Cry!

If You Live In The Heavenly Light
Keeping Jesus Christ In Your Sight
You Will Take The Then Immortal Saint's Flight
To Eternal Delights!

When You Play With The Devil!
You Ignore The Lord!
You Put Another On God's Throne
AND
You Willingly Worship The Fraud!

Alright Already!
I Get You!
What Do You Want From ME!

I Want Nothing From You!
I'm Just A Messenger!
I Love You
BUT
I Can't Save You
BECAUSE
I Did Not Die For You!

Jesus Christ Is The One Who Wants Your Heart
To Bow To His Will
AND
Have You Walking Faithfully According To His Way!
It's No Biggie!

Actually
It Is A Big Deal!
Satan Is Well Pleased With This One
Because He Has Given Him A Notch Up In His Score!
Satan Is Well Satisfied
- All Things Being Current -
That This One 
Will Never Walk Through Heaven's Gate Door!

I Am Not A "This One!"
I Am A Person!

Sorry!
I Thought You Were Just A Number
A Notch
A Commodity
A Perk For The Devil
Who You Are Permitting To Deny You
Soul Salvation!

Satan Is Not Denying Me Anything!
I Live However I Feel Like!

Let's See:
Uncontrolled Temper!
Yielding To Temptation!
Telling Lies!
Worshipping Things!
Fornicating!
Stealing!
Practicing Deceits!
Doubting Almighty God!
Bold Law Breaking!
Indulging In Known Cheats!

That Is All Wickedness!

And We All Know That Wickedness

Is Planned Sin

Aka Iniquity!

Not Good! Not Good! Not Good At All!

I Am My Own Man!

Do You Need Me To Repeat!

No, Not At All!

If You Don't Repent

AND
Change Your Ways

You Will Soon Hear The Holy God Say:

Leave "Ephraim" Alone With His Idols ...!

... He Could End Up Like King Saul!

As He, Himself, Says
That Will Be His Personal Choice!

Sooo...

We Have Come Full Circle! 

Your Choice!

Your Voice!

Will You Cry?! 

Will You Rejoice?! 

See You Later!!

Heyyy?! 

What Happened To King Saul?!

Who Is Ephraim?!

Glad You Asked!
Let's Talk About Disobedience ...!

... And Willful Waywardness ...!

... And Really Trusting The Living God!

A Prayer Inside Of A Prayer!

Dear Father In Heaven,
I Come To You Today
Burdened By A Spirit Troubled
By Sugary-Snack Prayers!

Father,
I Am Troubled By The Prayers That Say:

"Thank You, Lord, For The Blessing!"

As Though The Blessing Has No Name
And

The Giver Has No Part In My Rejoicing!

I Am Troubled, Lord
By The Form Of Prayer
Constant
Today
And

Every Day ...

"Thank You For The Roof Over My Head
For Health
For Strength
For Friends
For Family!"

Father,
I Am Thankful
For All These Things
But
Please Help Me To Think Deeply
For I Am Truly Thankful For Your Grace
So That I
- In My Praying -
Do Not Issue Just A Laundry List Of Wants
Nor
A Grocery List Of Needs

And

Mere-Form "Thank You's!"

I Desire My Gratitude To Shine Through!

I Desire My Great Love For You To Show!

I Desire, Lord
In All The Honesty
That A Wicked Human Heart Can Muster
To Be Able To Pray
To My Holy God
And

Truthfully Say:

Father,

Today

I Do Not Desire Anything

For Nor From The Corporeal Realm!

I Desire To Bless You, Lord

Upon My From Sleep Waking!

I Desire, Lord

To Give You Gifts

Never As Grand As You Give Men

But

I Desire To Gift You, Lord

With My Life

By The Exercise Of My Faith

And

My Walking Before You In Humility!

Added To That, Lord

Please Accept My Willingness

To Help Finish The Living Gospel Work

And

My Desire To Ease The Burden

Of A Brother Sister ... In Your Name

And

My Desire To Honor You, Father

By Daily, Willingly, Doing

All

That You Ask Me To Do!

Help Me Not To Think Of Costs

For, Therein

I Know I Will Be Lost!

Father,

I Know I Will Make Mistakes

And

I Also Know That You Are Just To Forgive My Sin

So I Am Beseeching You

To Help Me Ever To Come To You

Ever Unwilling To Hide

Ever Shielded From Pride

Ever Open To Correction

And

Ever Willing For You To Everlastingly Be My Guide!

Father,

I Look To The Great Day

When

I Shall Be What Jesus Christ Is

And

Beseech You, Loving Father

To Help Me To Give To You

All The Useless Things

In My Life

That Would Tend To My Damnation

And

I Ask You, Please

To Help Me, Please

Not To Despise

Your Gracious, Precious Gift To Me

Of My Soul's Eternal Salvation!

Father,

I Love You!

I Am Your Child

And

I Ask You To Bless Me

To Honor

Bless

Worship

And

Praise You

With My Willing Obedience

No Matter The Consequences!

Please Lead Me Gently ... Home

For I Know Of A Surety

That You Are The Holy God

In Whom I Live And Breathe

And

From Whom My Hope For Glory Comes!

Remember, Lord

Your Promises

To The Household Of Faith

In Jesus Christ's Holy Name, I Plead!

AMEN.
