Happy Sabbath + Exhortation!

Exhorted! 

          Commanded! 

                       Encouraged!

The Pointy Stick! 

The Hammer! 

The Embrace! 

How Often, Beloved, Have You Read The Bible

Or Heard A Sermon From A Faithful Steward

And 

Felt That The Exhortation Was Nothing More Than A Burden

A Pointy Poking Stick That 

Commanded Your Attention So Roughly That 

It Was As Though It Was Being Hammered Into You 

And 

Pounding Soft And Delicate You Into Mush Or Mash!?! 

How Long Did It Take Before You Realized That 

That Charged Word Known Truthful, Necessary

Was Encouragement, An Embrace, From The Heart Of Our God Eternal 

Who Makes Wrong Things Right

And 

Makes Broken Things Whole

And 

Causes The Dead To Live Again!?! 

What Made The Difference!?! 

Was It When You Realized That 

The Love Of God Was To And For You 

And

For You Made Bitter Herbs Sweet

The Winding Path Straight

The Rough Places Smooth

The Impossible Possible

And 

The Hellish Existence The Road To Glory 

Because 

Jesus Christ's Love To You Was Home Calling You Home!?! 

Dear Ones, 

The Love Of God

- The Sacrificial Love Of The Just One - 

Was Made For All 

And

Whosoever Is Willing To Be Saved Will Reap Its Sweets! 

Will You Accept The Charge That Is From That Account That 

Is 

Always Free And Fully Funded 

By Our Forever Faithful Friend And Forgiving Father!?! 

Listen Again With Love For The Lover Of Your Soul 

And 

Let Him Lovingly Lead You To His Eternal Life! 

The Word Of Life Fashions Us

Feeds Us

And 

Fills Us Up Forever! 

Peace! 

HAPPY SABBATH + REBELLION: A Beautiful Jewel!?! + PRAYER: Thank You, Father, For The Gifts!

Perverted 

Is 

The Judgment, Sight And Hearing
In The Jealous, Envious And Rebellious Heart
And
All Who Take This Path To Power
Shall See Their Grass Wither
Never Having Produced 

A Goodly All-Glory-To-God Pretty Flower!

Korah, Of Hebrew-Exodus Fame
Was As The One Called Lucifer
Who Was Elevated Among His Brethren
But
Was Desirous Of The Position Of The Leader
And
Ended Up Being Cast Down Into Hell
Neither Having His Own Place
Nor The Place He Coveted
Which Led To His Eternal Disgrace!

Jealousy Touts Itself A Beautiful Jewel!
Envy Is The Setting In Which It Is Framed
And
Rebellion Is The Rich Attire
Gold!
Polished And Aglow
Bright And Bold
By Which The Heart Hardened
Puts On A Sold-Out
Spectacularly Foolish
Against-Almighty-God Cabaret Show!

Rebellion Is As Witchcraft
Known Denounced By The Living God
But
Beloved Beyond All Wisdom
By The Instigating God-Fraud!

Brethren, Beloved Listen Unto Me:

The Lord Does Not Play Mind Games
And
Neither Should We!

What The Lord Has For You
He Gives Unto You
And
Your Gift Should Never Be Trivialized
Because
All The Lord's Gifts Are Useful ... As Given
In His Service
So Do Not Be Rebellious
And
Your Foot ... By Turning Away
Nor Your Heart ... Elevated With Sinful Pride
Against Almighty God Lift!

Punishment May Not Be Swift
But
It Is Always Sure!

Repentance
Is
The Perfect Cure!
Deny The Liar
And
Get Off His Deceitful Lure!

PRAYER:

Heavenly Father,

Thank You For The Beautiful Gifts!

My Heart Is Grateful!

I Feel The Bliss!

Please Help Me To Be Satisfied

With What You Have Given Unto Me

And

Please Bless Me To Live With Contentment

Not Attaching To Myself

The Attitude Of The Ingrate, Ungodly!

I Am Your Child: I Am Truly Blessed!

I Am A Student Of The School Of Jesus:

I Seek Educational Success!

I Am A Worker In Your Vineyard:

Help Me To Be Faithful Steward!

I Am Wholly Yours:

All My Known Sins I Repent

And

Confess!

Please Bless Me To Honor You, Always

All The Days Of My Life

And

When My Day In The Son

In The Sun

Is Over

Let Me Fall Asleep In Peace

Knowing That I Shall Awaken

When The Last Trumpet Shall Sound

When My Lord Christ Comes 

To Take His Faithful People

To His Eternal Home!

Please Help Me To Gain

The Promised Victory

Over Sin, Self, Satan

Death, Hell And That Cold Grave

So That I May With All The Saints Of

All Ages

Rejoice In The Glorious Day!

Please Remember The Brethren

Known And Unknown

Seen And Unseen

Already In The Faith

And

Soon To Partake

That Are In And Out Of The Myriad Flocks

This Dying World Around!

Oh, Lord, Send Help

To Teach

To Serve

To Bless

To Point The Way

So That They, Too

May Request To Have In Their Hearts

The Blessed Guest

The Holy Spirit Of Truth!

We Need You, Father!

I Thank You For Hearing

And

Always Answering Heartfelt Prayer

For

It Is In Jesus Christ's Blessed, Holy, Name

That I Humbly Pray

And

With A Contrite Heart, Plead!

 I Love You, Father!

Please Come Soon!

AMEN.
