HAPPY SABBATH + Unrepentant Sinners!?!


Image result for happy sabbath


Brethren,

Pay Very Close Attention!

A Sinner Is How You're Born!
A Disobedient Sinner Is Your Preferred 
Dare I Say Chosen, Lifestyle! 
Problem Is, Though
A Disobedient Sinner
Willful By Choice
Is
Nothing More Than A Traveller's Five-Pack Of 
Cheap, Easily Replaceable, Disposable Razor Blades!

You're Useful As Long As You're Usable!
Lose Your Edge
Your Willingness To Disrespect
Doubt, Disobey, Denigrate, Disbelieve 
Disparage, Deny, Defy, Dishonor Your Creator
Savior, Redeemer, Judge, King
Lord, God, Healer, Sealer, Teacher
Provider, Sustainer, Protector
And
You Lose Your Pick ... With Prejudice
And
Unfortunately For You
Your Christ-Bought And Paid For 
Very Expensive To The Father, Life
Becomes A Cherished Prize For The Devil
He Who Started The Carnal Strife! 

A Willful, Disobedient, Sinner Is A Fool! 
His Actions Say That He ... Indeed 
Believes That There Is No God
Or Better Put
No God Almighty Who Has Control Over His Life
Or His Ability To Remain Alive 
By His Own Power And Choosing! 

An Unrepentant Sinner Is An Even Bigger Fool
Because
He Believes The Lies Of The Devil! 
He Purchased The Bulk Pack At The Five And Dime
At The .99 $cents Store
And
He Is Doing His Utmost
To Open And Explore The Enveloped Door! 
To Him ... Sinning Is Not A Chore! 
To Him ... Every Hit Is A Major Score! 

We, Faithful, Obedient, Believers Have The Savior! 
His Name Is Christ Jesus! 
Those Ignoring Him Do Not Make His Less! 

We Have The Adversary! 
His Name Is The Devil, The Dragon, The Serpent, Satan! 
Those Acknowledging Him Do Not Make Him More! 

We Have The Certain Hope! 
It Is Called Free Salvation! 
It Is The Gift Of One Short Lifetime! 
Ignoring, Rejecting, And Refusing It Makes You Less
But
Acknowledging, Accepting, Appreciating ... Utilizing 
And 
Realizing Its Potential
Makes You More And Better Every Day:
Salvation Is The Work Of One's Short Lifetime! 

Humble Yourselves!
Pray Always!
Turn Away From Your Sin
And
The Lord Will Hear From Heaven
And
Being Faithful And Just
He Will Forgive You Of Your Known Sin
And
Will Heal The Land That Is Your Troubled Life! 

But How Can I Be Land When I'm A Human!?! 

Good Question! 
Please Refresh Our Memories While You Answer This Question:

What Did Jesus Christ Use 
To Create Adam On The Sixth Day Of Creation Week!?! 

Oh, That's Easy! 
Jesus Used The Dust Of The Earth! 

And What Do We Popularly Call The Dust Of The Earth!?! 

Dirt! 

And Where, Pray Tell, Is Dirt Found!?! 

On The Ground, On The Land ...! 

... Please Don't Stop Now! 
What, Then, Is Your Life!?! 

My Land! It's My Land
And I Have To Work It Properly
If I Desire To Have A Bountiful Harvest Of Good Fruit
If I Desire To Go To The Father's House With Jesus! 

So, Do You Desire To Go Home To Be With Our Jesus!?! 

You Know That I Want To! 
I'm Just Weak, Is All! 

That's Good! 

Whaaat?!?! 

If You're Weak 
And Humbly Acknowledge It Before The Lord
And Sincerely Ask For Help
Jesus Christ Will Give You Of His Strength
Because 
You Choose To Be One Of His
And
He Takes Good, Loving, Faithful Care
Of All Who Are His Own Children ... By Sacrifice!

What Do You Mean By Sacrifice!?! 

I Mean That You Give Up Your Willfulness! 
Give Up Your Waywardness! 
Give Up Lying, Cheating, Stealing
Fornicating, Adultery, Drugs, Alcohol
All Of Whatever Wrong Habit
Behaviors, Tendencies, Indulgences
That You Cultivate, Practice, Publish And Purvey 
And
Take On Christ's Life Of Obedience To The Will Of The Father! 
Give Up Walking As One Own-Way!

Jesus Christ Says:
If You Love Me, Keep My Commandments! 
He Also Says Do Good And Be Blessed! 
He Also Says Trust Him ... And Obey! 
You Must Walk In The Light That Is Life
And
To Do That
It Means You Must Come Out Of The Shadows
Out Of The Darkness! 

All Of The Lord's People Are Children Of The Light!

Indeed!
They Choose Not To Walk In The Darkness
And
All Of The Things They Do
Are Open And On Display 
Before Almighty God, His Holy Angels And Men! 

We Do Not Fear Reproof Because Our Deeds Are Not Evil! 

Beloved, 

Here's A Thought For Us, All, To Chew Upon:






There Is No Sin In Being Tempted: 
The Sin Comes From Yielding ... Giving In ... To Temptation! 

Our Own Jesus Christ Was Tempted With The Same Temptations 
That All Mankind Must Face And Overcome: 
The Lust Of The Flesh 
The Lust Of The Eye 
And 
Lord Help Us All
That Bug-Bear The Pride Of Life! 

Jesus Christ Overcame Them All With 
"It Is Written...!" 

Knowing And Obediently Using 
The Word Of God ... Our Sharp Sword
Will Lead To Our Acquiring The Crown Of Life 
Which Jesus Purchased For Us At Infinite Expense! 

The Lord Provides Our Way Of Escape
From Our Every Temptation So Remember Three Words:

  • Jesus Christ Saves! 
  • I'm Not Alone! 
  • Resist The Devil! 
  • Endure All Things! 
  • Acquire The Crown! 

Jesus Christ
Is
The Word Of God: Learn Of And Trust The Word
And 
Thrust Your Sword Into Satan Joyfully! 
Untold Blessings Await Us!
Here's To Wonderful Peace!

VESPERS AT THE END OF THE SABBATH: Plead For Patience!?!

I Cannot Take This Anymore!
I Have Had Enough!
I'm Sick And Tired Of These Trials
And I Feel Like A Dog Being Carried By The Scruff!

Come On, Lacey!
You've Got To Hold On To Hope!
The Lord Is Our Shepherd
And
It Is Only Through His Merits
That We Shall Safely Reach Home!

Trust Him!

Oh, Just Shut Up Already And Leave Me Alone!
I'm So, So, Very Tired That
Right Now
This Very Minute
I Don't Even Care If ...!

... Please Don't Say That!

Why Shouldn't I!?!
It's How I Feel!

Lacey, Aren't You Forgetting Something Very Important!?!

Like What, Ms. I Don't Have A Care In The World
No Bug In My Salad
No Bee In My Bonnet
No Broken Nail In My Shoe!?!

I'll Act A Though You Did Not Say That!

Big Whoo Who!

Since You Are Intent On Feeling Your Feelings
And
Are Enjoying Permitting Satan To Color Your Rainbow
I Shall Tell You A Testing-Time Story
And
You Shall See From It How A Life
Lived For And In Jesus Can Go!

Oh, Goodie!
A Story To Put Me To Sleep!
At Last! I Shall Get Some Rest!
Speak!

Father,
Please Have Mercy On Your Dear Child, Lacey!

Aren't You Supposed To Be Telling Me A Story!?!

Help Us, Dear Lord!

There Was Once A Girl Named Rainey ...!

... You!?!

Yes! 

Rainey Had A Good Life!
Chairs Under The Table
Food On The Plates
Beverage In The Cups
Water In The Taps
Lit Bulbs
Clean Clothing

Warm Bed
Level-Heeled Shoes
Engaging Work
Love Of Almighty God

Joy In Christ Jesus
Comfort Of The Holy Spirit

And
Protection Of The Angels
When Suddenly
The Dark Horse Reared Up
And
Let Loose A Vicious Kick
And
Every Last Thing In Her Life Was On Fire
And
Not In A Good Way!

Rainey's Life Was Having A Hit Parade!

Poor Rainey ... I Can Relate!

Hit In The Pocket Book
Hit In The Head
Hit In The Hope
Hit In The Heart
Hit In The Faith
Hit In ...!

... Belief!

Rainey's Foundations Were Being Shaken
And
She ... I ... Was Being Tested
Tried, Shaken, Stirred
Fileted, Fricasseed
Milled, Pounded
Pushed, Prodded
And
I Was Feeling Things
And
Feeling, Feeling, Feeling Hemmed In
Overwhelmed
Coccooned ...!

... Inside A Dark Cloud!?!

Why, Yes!

Uhh, Huh!

The Light Of Hope ... GONE!
The Light Of Life ... ABSENT!
The Light Of Truth ... AWOL!
And 

The Electrician ...!

... INCOMMUNICADO!

Wait A Minute!
I Thought I Was Telling The Story!?!

You Are!
You Were!
You're Taking Too Long
!

Okay, Ms Suddenly Found Her Voice
Know It All!
You Tell The Story ... If You Can!

I Can And I Will!
I Suddenly Feel ... The Power:

Satan Was Doing His Boss Act!
He Was Watering Doubt!
He Had Installed Black-Out Curtains
And He Was Short-Circuiting The Channel Of Hope
The Channel Of Peace
The Channel Of Light
The Channel Of Mercy

And
He Had Seemingly Blocked
The Grace Notes Station!

I ... You ... We Were All Alone
Cut Off
Adrift
Listing ... In A Holey Boat

In The Raging Sea
At The Mercy Of The Storm Of Wind
Programmed To Destroy Us
Unless ...!

... In Faith, Nothing Wavering
We Plead For Patience
Not To Be Removed From The Crucible
But
To Receive Strength To Endure
Until
In Almighty God's Providence
The Dark Cloud Be Lifted Up
And
We Emerge ... Renewed
Refreshed
Reformed
Blessed ... Substantially Blessed ...!

... Until The Next Time ...!?!

Until The Next Time!

This Makes Me Think Of The Divide
Between The Egyptians And The Hebrews
The Chosen People Of God!

I Don't Get The Link!
What Do You Mean!

The Cloud Over The Hebrews
Provided Protection From The Heat
And
Direction In The Day!
It Provided Light At Night!

In The Day Of Impending Disaster
It Was A Shield Of Light For The Hebrews
And
A Wall Of Darkness To The Egyptians!
It Protected The Hebrews
And
It Frightened The Egyptians!

I Get It!
There Is A Great Deception
Being Perpetrated Against The People Of God!
Satan Counterfeits Everything That The Lord Does
Because He Can't Create Anything
And Because He Has No Desire That 

We Should Find Our Peace, Our Rest
Our Blessing In The Lord!

The Blackness Ain't Real!

Bingo!
Don't Trust Your Eyes!
Trust Your Faith
And
On Jesus Christ Rely!

Suddenly, I Am Feeling Blessed!

I Wonder Why!
Nothing Has Changed In Your Life
In The Last Thirty Minutes!

You're Wrong, Sweets!
I Have Just Enjoyed
A Major Attitude Adjustment
And All Because Of A Lil' Thing Called Insight!

Insight Gives Foresight
And
Foresight Provides Perspective
And
Perspective ... Gives Light
And
Light ...!

... Gives Life!

Jesus Christ Is Light!
Jesus Christ Is Life
And
When We Boldly Trust In Jesus
- Not In The Sight Of Our Eyes
Nor The Feeling On Our Skin -
We Receive Both Light And Life
And
Will Survive Satan's Inflicted Strife!

Jesus Christ's Light And Life
Is 
Our Survival Knife!

Remember ...

Word ... Way ... Walk ... Wise!
The Word Points The Way That
We Shall Walk Wisely Upon!

Don't Look In: Look Up!
Don't Feel For Self: Fear God!
Don't Cry Over The Lying Circumstance: 
Let The Light Of Life
The Word Of Truth
Constantly Edify
And
See That You, Always
By The 

"It Is Written!" The Lost Liar, Deny!
Deftly Defy!

Rainey, Please Pardon Me
For Behaving Like A Bear
With A Thorn In His Paw!

Of Course, Lacey!

Thank You, Kindly!
Now, Will You Tell Me 
What Was It In The Word That
Changed Everything For You!?!
What Is It That Makes The Difference To You!?!

I Stood ... I Stand
On A Simple Promise Of The Lord:




Where Did You Get Such Faith!?!

The Same Place You Should Be Getting Yours:
From Jesus Christ The Righteous
Our Savior, Lord, God And Soon-Coming King!

Do You Realize That There Is A Whole Bunch Of
Intertwined Things That We Must Participate In Daily!?!

Like What, Pray Tell!?!

Daily Grace!
Daily Faith!
Daily Strength!
Daily Blessings!
Daily Trials!
Daily Confession!
Daily Repentance!
Daily Growth!
Daily Dying To Self!

I Hate, Hate, Hate, Daily Trials!
They Are So Very Trying
And They Put Me In A Really Bad Mood!

Lacey! Stop It!
Jesus Said That We Are To Take Up
Our Cross ... Daily
And 
Follow After Him!

Indeed, He Did!

And, He Also Said
That It Is By Tribulation That ...

... We Shall Enter The Kingdom!
No Cross ... No Crown!

It's Amazing When You Think About It!
Wearing A Cross Is So Very Easy
But
Bearing A Cross
Is 
A Whole Different Kettle Of Fish!

Tell Me About It!

Chin Up, Old Girl!
The Lord Overcame
And
We, Too, By His Grace
Shall Do Likewise!
I'll Leave You With One For The Road:

STRENGTH IN CHRIST: Crowns Are Weighty!

Look At All The Upfront
Available
Enduring Benefits:

He Forgives!
He Heals!
He Redeems!
He Crowns!
He Satisfies!

And

Our Lives Are Renewed ... Like An Eagle's!

Eagles Have Long Lives!
Eagles Live High Above The Fray!
Eagles See For Great Distances!
Eagles Are Strong!

And

What Eagles Have, They Hold!

How Can We Not, Therefore
Cause Our Souls To Bless The Lord
Who Gives Such Immense Gifts!?!

Can You Forget Almighty God
If
You Are Blessing The Eternal God With All That 
Is
Within You!?!

Look At What We Are Bringing To The Covenant
To The Contract Table:

Iniquities
Diseases
A Life Needing Redemption From Destruction
And
A Hungry Belly Under A Mouth That
Requires Satisfying!

The Lord Gives Us His All
And 
We Get All Things
So Don't You Believe That It Is Time That
We Give Something Back To Our Lord!?!

All That He Is Asking For Is Our Hearts
Our Love
Our Worship
Our Praise
Our Faith
Our Belief
And
Our Character Aka Our Glory
Which Is Us Returning Our Lives To Him
Made Over In His Character, His Glory!

Now, Let Us Raise Up Our Heads A Bit
And
Think About That Crown!

Jesus Christ Crowns Us With 
Loving-Kindness
And
Tender Mercies!
That's Two Crowns Already!

Crowns Aren't Light, People!
Crowns Are Weighty
And
No Thanks To Our Efforts, We Get Two!

Crowns Are Wonderful!
Crowns Are One-Of-A-Kind Treasures!
Crowns Are Priceless!
Have You Glommed On To The Fact Yet That
Almighty God Through Jesus Christ
Has Marked You As His Special Treasure
And
Is Laying Treasure Upon Treasure!?! 

Do You Yet Recognize That Your Promised Home
With Jesus Christ
Is 
In The Treasure City Of The Universe!?!

Brethren,

We Have The God Of Grace
Who Loves Us Sacrificially!
Of Course, There Are Some Of Us
Who Love Him Not But That's Their Issue!
We Who Are Christians Say That We Love The Lord!
Are We Really Showing To Him 
What We Are Saying To Him And To The World!?!

Think About It, Prayerfully ...

The Lord Has Great Mercy 
And 
Pity 
For Those Who Fear Him
Who Hold Him In Deepest Honor
And
Highest Respect
And
Speak Of Him With Awe And Reverence
And
Who Are Not Afraid Or Ashamed
To Give Him Willing Obedience!

How Are You Fearing The Holy God!?!


We Go To Almighty God
Confessing And Repenting:
He Forgives And Forgets!

We Go To Almighty God Sick With Sin

And 
He Heals Us
Leaving Us With No Bill To Get!

We Put The Lord Christ On The Cross
For Our Sin

And
He Willingly Paid The Price
Our Souls To Redeem

And

When, In Person
He Comes To Earth Again
To Claim His Own
He Will Crown Us With Crowns
Which Cannot
Be Passed On Or Passed Down
And
We Will Be Forever Satisfied
As, Indeed, He Will Assuredly Be
Because
He Will See Those
For Whom His Soul Did Travail
And
All Of Creation
Will This Most Glorious King Hail!

MANY WAYS: Going To Father God?!







Among The Many Lies
That Satan
AND
His Guru-Henchmen Sell
Is That
There Are Many Ways To GOD!

Only Problem Is
That The Word Of God Itself Says
That You Need Christ Jesus
To Get To
The Father God!

Come Onnnn!
There Must Be A Simple Mistake Somewhere
For You Know That There Is Safety
In Numbers
And If The Multitude Believe
That The Right Way For You
Is
The Wrong Way For Me
Who Am I
To Go Against The Leading Of 
Considered Opinion!

I Love You!
You're A Sweetheart!
You Just Said
The Best Thing Ever!
You Called It What It Is
- An Opinion -
No Facts
But False-Oath Taking
Beloved Of Those
Who Have The Living God
Well And Truly Forsaken!

Why Did You Start Her Up?!
Now She Is Going To Preach Us A Whole Sermon!
Maaan!

Changing The Word Of God
To Suit What Carnally Satisfies You
Is A Sure Way Not To Receive
What The God Of Heaven
Has - By Sacrifice -
Provided Freely For You!

God Is Still God
Whether You Are
On The Mountain
Walking in The Valley
Rotting In The Prison
Salivating In The Penthouse
Or
Praying In Your Privy!

God Is Still God
Be It Bright Day
Or Dark Night!
So Let Us, Therefore,
Bless God And  ... Cheerfully Face Life
Each And Every Day
Trusting The Word
Of The God Who Is The Truth
AND
Not Giving Way To Fables
So That We Can Live The Debauched Lives
Amply Demonstrated On Sit-Coms
Dramedies And Blockbuster Movies
That Ruin Our Youth!

Here She Goes!

Men Have
- From Time Immemorial -
Tried To Unseat God
From Heaven's Throne
AND
From The Throne Of Their Hearts
By Following
- Of All God's Creations -
Fallen Lucifer
Nka Satan!
Tsk! Tsk! Tsk!

I Don't Know Why They'd Trust
A Reprobate Like Satan
Whose Resume Of Unrighteousness
Leads To Eternal Death!

The Almighty God Cast Out Lucifer
The Covering Cherub
The Choir Director Of Heaven
Who Beheld The Face Of God
And, Yet
Even Today Still Lives
And We
Who Cannot Behold The Face Of The God Eternal
And Live
Think
"Believe"
- In Absolutely Reckless Pride
AND
Rabid Mindbending Confusion -
That We May Correct God
In Whom IS Our Life
AND
Show Him
The Error Of His Ways
By Use Of The Satanic Device
Which Is Nothing More
Than Soul-Poisoning Blasphemy
Guaranteed ... If Uncorrected
To Get Us A One-Way
Once And Done Ticket
To The Lake Of Fire And Brimstone Not A Party
Guaranteed A Time Not Fun!

Look!
Jesus Christ IS Coming!
Man Is Rapidly Dying
AND
Satan Is Circling His Wagons
Around Those Who Lean To The Self
Who Walk Paths Not Right
AND
Who Sing Songs Sure To Delight
The Soul Who Chooses Not To Recognize
Him Who Made Said Man
A Living Soul!

Let's Not Get It Twisted!
God Does Not Change!
God Means What He Says
AND
Tells What He Does
For The Good
AND
Against The Evil
AND
For The Faithful
The Meek
AND
The Peacemakers
Who Walk Under The Banner Of Jesus Christ
- Who Is Our Peace -
As Long As We Follow
The Ways Of The Lord
Walking With Him
In One Accord!

Answer Me Now!
Can You Stop Yourself
From Growing Old
From Sin Dying
From Knowing Death Is Bitter
From Breathing
From Eating
From Sleeping
From Believing Anything
When Jesus Christ
Is Not Your Something?

Hmmm ...
When You Put It Like That ... No!

So ...
If You Can't Do The Simple Things
Why, Then
Do You Want To Believe
That You Can Choose
Your Own Way
AND
Create Your Own Path
To Get To The Eternal God?!

I Know!
I Know!
I Know The Answer
To That Conundrum!
The God Gods That They're Making
Their Own Ways Toward
Are Gods Of
Bronze Silver Gold
Wood Stone
Blind Deaf Dumb
Useless Illiterate
Good Only As Paperweights
As Awarded By Idol-Worshipping Alums!

The Lord Be Praised!

Friend!
Please Do Not Be Deceived!
God Cannot
- By Any Living -
Be Mocked
So
I Beseech You
From Those Beasts
Sin Burdened And Lost
Do Not Buy Stock!

Money Can't Purchase Salvation
Neither Can It Bury Truth
AND
Listening To
AND
Heeding
The Malicious Malevolent Ravings
Of The Accursed Fallen Angel
Will Cause You
From The Family Of God
To Be Forever Cut Loose!

Please, I Beseech You
Do Not Permit Those
For Whom Dying Earth
Is Their Forever Home
To Stop You From Ascending To Reside Forever 
In God's Eternal Home
The Seat Of His Throne!

Humble Yourself ... And Live!
Jesus Christ Himself
Will Award You
The Everlasting Crown!

Say Your Prayers - He Cares!
Listen To Him
AND
Get That Crown
Not Condemnation's Frown!
Got To Go!
Remember He Is Coming Soon!
So Long!

That Was Close! Phew! 

Yeah!
She Must Really Have Been In A Hurry Today!

Later  ...!
