HAPPY SABBATH + Praying Is Not About I-Want And I-Feel! + PRAYER: Remember, Lord ...!







Beloved, 

Someone Is Praying For You! 

Our Dear Savior ... Just Prior To Walking The Way To Calvary
Fervently Prayed For His Disciples 
And 
For All Of Us Who Would Eventually Believe Upon His Name! 

Our Savior Cares And Still Prays! 
Our Savior Cried, Died
And
Ascended On High
And 
His Gospel Is Known Not To Be Pie In The Sky By And By! 

We Are Called To Willing Service 
And 
Praying In Faith For Self And For Others 
Is 
Part Of Our Service For Our Lord 
And 
Part Of Our Caring For Our Own Souls! 

Let Us Remember That 
Praying Is Not A Shopping List Of I-Wants And I-Feels 
Nor Is It A Laundry List Of I-Know But ... 
Why Can't I Even Though ... 
If You Will I Won't ... 
And 
Gimme Now And I'll Never Ask Again! 

Let Us Ardently Say As We Pray: 

Thank You, Father!
Bless You, Lord!
Praise Your Name!
Draw Me Nearer!
Help Me Never To Profane Your Name
And 
Remember The Brethren Near And Far
Brother, Sis-Sis, Mami, Papi 
And 
Uncle Sam And Old Aunt Jane
The Prisoner
The Patient In Bed
And 
The Impatient In Spirit! 

Remember, Lord, Those Who Over Us Rule! 
Bless, Guide, And Teach Them 
So That They Won't Act The Fool 
Or Be Satan's Cheap, Disposable, Tool! 

Remember The Ministers Of The Gospel
Guarding The Flock 
And 
Help Them Not To Love Money 
So That They Won't Sell Out The Saints 
So That They May Buy Bonds And Stocks! 

We Pray Also For The Outpouring
And
Indwelling Of The Holy Spirit
The Protection Of The Holy Angels
The Salvation Of Lost Souls
And 
The Soon Return Of Our Savior! 
Please Help Us To Pray Without Ceasing!

Father, 
We Pray For Peace! 
We Pray For Knowledge Increase
And
With Hearts Filled To Overflowing With Love
We Pray For Safe Passage
To The Kingdom Of Light Above! 
AMEN!!!

SIN: Saving Man?!

Many Are The Disciples Of Christ
Who Believe
AND
Avidly Teach
That Jesus Christ Came To Earth
To Save His People
From Poverty
AND
Social Injustice!

Come On! That's Just Wrong!

Indeed!
Jesus Christ Came To Earth
To Save His People
From Sin
- Not In Sin -
Which IS The Fundamental Cause Of
Poverty
AND
Injustice
AND
To Restore
The Image Of God ... In Man!

The Restoration Of The Image Of God
In Mankind Was The Goal
So It Will Be Impossible
For The Restorative Work
To Take Hold
IFMan Holds On To Sin
AND
Sinning!


Sin ... In Man
Must Be Shown The Exit
Otherwise
Man With The Devil
- In Doing Sin - 

Is Maliciously Complicit!

Sin Is The Transgression Of God's Law
AND
Sin Mars The Image Of God In Man
AND

If 
Man Desires
To Bear His Maker's Image Again
All His Iniquity
His Planned Sin
His Lawless
Must Be Laid To Final Rest
If Man By God
Through Christ Jesus
Is To Be Eternally Blessed!


Preach, Brother! Preach!

Let Us Not Join The Multitudes
Who Blame
AND
Curse
The Almighty God
For What Man
- In Knowing Exercise Of His Own Free Will -
Wittingly
AND
Against Knowledge
Advice
AND
Common Sense
Chooses To Do
AND, THEREBY Reap
The Whirling Wind
Which Comes From The Wind Of Sin
That He
- By His Wrong Actions -
Chooses
To Go Releasing!

All Men
Should Be Able To Reason
From Cause To Effect

AND
All Men Should Know The True Outcome
When The Salvation Of Their Own Soul
They Aggressively Neglect!

All Men Should Know
That Forgiveness Of Sin
Does Not Negate Punishment
AND
All Men Should - Without Doubt - Know
That The Living God
Provides For
Points
Protects
AND
Guides The Obedient Believer
On The Way Home!

Doubt Causes Man
To Disbelieve And Dishonor God
AND
By So Doing
Causes Man To Sin!


Sin Separates Man From GOD
AND
Only Confession
Repentance
AND
Turning Away From Sin
By Trusting The Word
Of the Provision Of Reconciliation
Will Cause Man To Get Right
With God!

How Are YOU Living?!

Is Your Heart Right With God!
Have You Given 
"Get Thee Behind Me, Satan!"
Marching Orders To The Fraud?
Are You Trusting The Lord Who
Came To Earth
To Die To Save You?
Are You Reconciling Your Soul
To The Eternal God?!

Sometimes I Really Hate
Coming To Hear Him Preach!!

But, Why?!
He Preaches The Undiluted Truth!

I Know ... But
The Problem Is
That Afterward I Can't Pretend 
That I Don't Know The Gospel Truth
And So I Have To Make Changes ...!

Yeahhhh!
You Can't Tell Yourself Any More Lies
For You Know
That God Will No Longer Wink
When You Make Mistakes
For, In Your Case
The Now Mistake Is An On-Purpose!

I Know ... I Know!

I Guess You've Got Homework To Do Tonight!

Indeed!
