THE HOLY SPIRIT'S CALL: Are You Listening!?!

We Who Call Jesus Christ Savior, Lord And God 
Are Nothing Without The Holy Spirit Of Truth
The Good Gift 
The Comforter By Whom We Are Sealed 
Against The Day Of Accounts 
- The Judgment Of Things Done In The Flesh -
Him Through Whom We Receive Light, Wisdom 
And 
Understanding! 

The Holy Spirit 
Is 
Here To Bless, Teach, Feed
Correct, Guide 
And 
Keep Us True To The Lord Christ Who Loves Us Best! 

Think About It Seriously ...

Why Would We Want To Douse The Fire That 
Keeps Us Truly Alive!?! 

We Don't Need To Learn From Our Own Mistakes
When We Have The Benefit Of The Record Of
Other People's Experiences
So Let Us Dare To Learn From The Past!

Pharaoh Of Egypt
Despised The Holy Spirit By Gross Denial 
And 
Rabid Resistance 
And Hardened His Own Heart Thereby 
And 
Destroyed His Own Nation
And
Himself! 
He Thought He Was God
And
Found Out That He Wasn't!

King Saul Of Israel
Refused, Rejected
And
Willfully Put The Fire Of Life In His Own Heart 
By Willful Disobedience 
And 
Self-Righteousness 
And
Left To His Own Devices
Then Sought Light Through The Darkness
Aka The Evil Of Witchcraft 
And
Died By His Own Hand, A Lost Soul! 

The Disciple Of Jesus Christ ... Judas Iscariot 
Sold The Eternal God That Is Our Jesus 
To Buy Perishable Silver! 
He Rejected Light ... Godly Counsel
- The Urging Of The Holy Spirit - 
In The Godless Belief That 
He Could Force Almighty God's Hand
To Perfect According To His Own Greedy Desires! 

Juda Iscariot Left Jesus' Side 
And
It Was Night Physically
And
It Was Night In His Life 
And
For His False-Hearted Machinations
He Ultimately Went Out From The Society Of
His Co-Conspirators
And
Cowardly Killed Himself! 

Beloved, 

The Counsels Of The Past Are For Our Learning
So Let's Be Wise ... Unto Our Own Soul's Salvation
And
Let The Holy Spirit Be Our Faithful Guide!
Eternal Love Gifted The Holy Spirit To Us! 

Let's Be Enduringly Obedient
And
Wait Patiently Upon The Lord Of Life
Because
At Journey's End
At The Return Of The Great King
Surpassing Glory Awaits The Blessed Of The Eternal God! 

Let's Live In Holy Light
And
According To Living Truth
So That We Will Be Eternally Blessed! 
Peace!

VESPERS AT THE END OF THE SABBATH: The Holy Spirit's Call

I Bless Myself Every Day ...!

Now, Really!
How Can YOU Bless Yourself
When Blessings Come From The Living God!?!

If You Had Not Cut Me Off, Pretti Pearson
You Would Have Come To Hear Me Say That
I Bless Myself Every Day By My Choosing
To Believe That The God Of Heaven Is God Almighty
That Jesus Christ Is Savior, Lord And King
That His Word Is Alive And Working
That His Promises Are Sure And Secure
And
Are Even Now Performing
And 
That My Life Is His
Because
My Name Is Indelibly Engraved On The Palm Of His Hand!

I Choose To Accept That 
I Live By Him 
And 
I Must Labor For Him!

I Choose To Walk Wise 
And 
Ignore Satan's Bold Lies!

I Choose To Humble Myself
So That The Lord Doesn't Have To Humble Me
And
In Faith
I Choose To Fall Upon The Rock Of Ages To Be Broken
So That By Him I May In His Reckoning
Be Made Eternally Whole!!

It Sure Took You Long Enough To Wise Up!

Time And Seasons, Sweet Girl!
Time And Seasons!

You Know, I Often Wonder About Those
- Like The Procurator Felix -
Who Truly Know The Truth For The Time Now Present ...!

... But Are "Waiting For A More Convenient Season!?!"

I Honestly Believe That Those Are
The Most Dangerous Words
A Human Can Ever Utter In Relation
To His Own Soul's Salvation!

Tomorrow Is Not Promised!

True, But I Believe It Is Worst Than That!

Really!
What Can Be Worst That Dropping Down Dead!?!

Think About This:

We All Know From The Living Word That
Tomorrow, Truly, Is Not Promised
And, Yet 
Wicked Men Seem To Live Forever And A Day
Behaving Like Time
- You Can't Save Time
Or Borrow Time
But You Can Spend Time - 
Is 
On Their Side
And, Presumptuously 
Telling The Lord
- Actually The Spirit Of The Living God -
By Whom They Would Be Sealed 
Against The Great And Dreadful Day
To ... Wait On Them
To Not ... Bother Them At That Time
To Come Back To Them ... Later ...!

.. At The More Convenient Time That Never Comes ...!

... Not Recognizing That
The Most Convenient Time Is Always Now
In The Currently Available Present Moment
When You Are Hearing The Holy Spirit's Gentle Call!

They Don't Understand That 
You Can Only Answer The Holy Spirit
When He Is Calling Out To You
And 
Not When They Feel To Call Out To Him!

I Hope That You Have Scripture To Back That Up!

Isn't That How We Always Roll!?!

Very Well!
Present Your Evidence!

If People Feared The Lord
The Would Answer The Lord's Call
When They Hear Him Calling Them
And
Not As And When They Feel Like It
So Let's Start With Proverbs 1:7:

 
Everybody Has That Terminal Decision To Make:
Answer The Call And Live Forever With Jesus
Or Ignore The Call And Ultimately Perish With Satan

And 

Just So We All Know That
The Almighty God Good Means What He Says
Consider The End Of Israel's First Worldly Ruler
King Saul, The Disobedient
Who Chose Self
Self-Satisfaction 
Self-Aggrandizement
And
The Available
Supposed Convenience Of Accursed Witchcraft 
Over Assuredly Blessed-Forever Obedience
And
Free To All 
And 
Presently Available Soul Salvation!

Oh, My!
You Make A Really Good Point!
His End Was Fearful
And It Was At His Own Appointing!

True, True!
The Lord Laid The Framework For The Good Life!
King Saul Chose Otherwise!

The Lord Calls Us All To Obedience
Because No Man Can Save Himself
No Matter What Satan Tells Him By Practiced Lies!

The Lord Gives Us All A Work To Perform
To Bless Ourselves 
And To Glorify His Holy Name
And All With His Promised, Blessed, Outcome Attached!

These Are All Good Points!
This, In A Nutshell, Then
Is What The Holy, Living, Word Of God Says:

Go Where I Send You!

Do What I Say!

Answer When I Call You!

Seek Ever To Obey!

I Do Not Call You To Annoy You!

I Call You To Bless You And To Save!

I Call You To Make Your Life Holy, Prosperous

And To Remove You From Being

Sin And Self's Slave!

My Call To Man Is Not Indefinite!

Every Day Has Its Appointed End!

Please Answer

In The Hour, The Minute, The Moment:

Do Not Ignore Your Call-To-Salvation Day!

Be Humble!

Be Constant!

Submit To The Holy Spirit!

Be Instant In Pray!

I Will Your Every Burden Bear!
I Am Calling You!

Answer "Yes!", I Beseech You, Beloved!

Answer Your Personal Call To Everlasting Life

Today!

The Bottom Line ...

In The Way Of The World

If You Play With A Kitty

You Will Get Scratched

And

The Pain Of Same Is Unmatched!

In The Way To Heaven

- To Surpassing Glory -

Your Playing

With Your Own Soul's Free Gift Of Salvation

Will See Your Name

** From The Book Of Life Of The Lamb **

Being Scratched!

Christ's Glory

- With Us To Be Shared -

Is Unmatched!

This Is An Indelible, Incontrovertible, Fact!

VESPERS AT THE END OF THE SABBATH: Truth Sets The Soul Free!

I Could Not Go To The Living God By Myself!
The Living God Had To Call Unto Me!
I Had No Power Of My Own!
The Holy Spirit Of God Had To Give Power Unto Me!

Like Many Before
I Thought I Could Be Saved By My Own Merits
AND
That My Own Works Would Justify Me!
I Thought That My Willingness To Serve The Living God
Meant
That The Living God Had To Save Me!

I Was Wrong!

Again,
Like Many Before Me

AND

Around Me
I Thought That I Would Be Saved In My Known Sins!
I Thought That The Fact That I Worshiped The Living God
Meant That The Living God Would Excuse 
Known Wrongdoing
Wilfull Sinfulness
Actively Working In Me!
I Was Wrong!

But For The Love Of Christ The Lord

I Could Have Been Dead Wrong! 

The Truth Will Come Out ...

One Day
I Met The Savior
Who Opened Up The Truth Unto Me!
He Told Me Plainly:

I Also Understood That
Faith Alone Avails Nothing!
Works Alone Avail Nothing!
BUT ...
When Jesus' Faith Was Released In Me
My Acceptance Of That Faith
Caused Me To Work Aka Step Out In Faith
Trusting The Word Of Him Who Is Faithful
Just
AND
Holy
Wise
AND
Ever Always True!

I Came To Realize That ...

Doubt ... Sits And Wonders And Worries ...!
Faith ... Walks And Works And Lives!

I Now Know That ...

Faith Can Handle Delay
AND
Disappointment
AND
Is Never In A Rush
BUT
That Doubt
Holds Tight To Instant Gratification
AND
Never Has The Courage Of Faith
Into God's Great Unknown
To ... In Hope
Step Out!

I Finally Learned That ...

I Can Do All Things
Through Jesus Christ Who Strengthens Me!
I Know From Whom My Help Comes
AND
I Trust The Only One
In Whose Bosom
Under Whose Wings
In Whose Covert
I Can Safely Lie Down!

The Living God
My God
My Hope
My Help
My Salvation
My Redemption
My Beginning
My End
Gives Me The Comfort Of Peace
AND
The Blessing Of Strength
AND
Though I Walk Through Death's Dark Vale
I Shall Never Be Afraid
For He Who Is The Great I AM
Is All-Seeing
All-Knowing
Ever-Present!

Almighty God
Created Man To Love Him
To Worship Him
AND
To Give Him Willing Praise
Out Of Man's Own Free Will
AND
Because I Am His Alone
I Look Up With Ardent Hope
Unto His Glorious Coming On The Great Day!

I Am Not Alone!
Jesus Christ Walks Beside Me!
He Created Me
AND
To Him
My Soul Is As Precious Gold!

I Love The Lord

AND 

By His Grace 

- Great And Known Free - 

I Have Risen Above The Weighty Fog Of Sinful Doubt!

I From Under Doubt's Bondage
Have Finally Gotten Out! 

Precious Lord, Take My Hand! 

Holy God, Help Me Stand! 

I Trust Your Word!

I Believe That You're The Living God! 

I Give To You

My Trembling Heart! 

I Bow In Worship

Though Only A Man

But

I Love You, Lord

You Are My God

Please Take My Hand!

PRAYER: Your Spirit, Lord, Has Captured Me!

I Am Delivered From Sinning

Because, Lord

You Have My Hand Taken!

I Walk In The Light Of Him

Who

Of The World Is The Light

And By Attending Grace

And The Endurance Of Jesus' Faith

One Soon Coming Day

I Will

To Your Eternal Home

Take My Flight

To Live Evermore

With You In My Visible Eyesight!

Oh, Lord, Hasten The Day!

Father,

I Am Thankful 

That Your Grace

Is My Constant Companion

And

That Your Mercy Is My True Friend

And

That Jesus Christ - The Lord

Is My Captain Commander

Whose Eye

I Choose Never Again To Wander From

Nor Whose Heart  I Pray Never Again

To Offend!

Help Me, Lord!

Your Holy Spirit, Lord

Called 

And

I Answered: "Yes!"

And

He Lovingly Captured Me

And

His Fruit I Desire

To Manifest Daily!

Love 

Joy

And 

Peace

Right Now I Take Hold

And Soon, Lord

With Your Manifest Blessing

All The Fruit

Will Be In My Possession

Making My Heart

A Choice Golden Bowl!

My Will I Gladly Yield

So, Dear Lord, Guide Me!

May Your Holy Angels

Attend Me This Day

Influencing My Choices

For My Eternal Good

Is Also My Prayer!

I Am Your Child!

Teach Me

And

Keep Me!

I Will In You

Ever To Abide

So That I Will No More

Into Gross Sin Slide!

Lord, Take My Hand!

I Present These My Petitions

In Jesus Christ's Holy Name

And

Thank You, Lord

For Hearing And Answering

A Believing Child's Prayer!

AMEN.
