Don't Become An Unprofitable Servant!

Brethren, 

I Don't Know About You

But 

I Have No Desire To Hear The Lord Call Me An Unprofitable Servant 

So I Am Determined ... By Almighty God's Saving Grace

Not To Anymore Indulge In Any Habit, Practice, Pursuit 

Which Will Not Glean For Me Some Type Of Eternal Profit! 

Think About It! 

Lying, Cheating, Stealing, Gossiping

Backbiting, Gainsaying, Doubting

Defiance, Whoremongering, Idolatry

Disobedience

And 

Distrusting The Lord Christ Will Not Give Me Any Profit 

Aka Interest To Give To Our Lord Christ 

Who Entrusted Me To Handle His Property 

When He Returned To Our Father's House Of Love 

After The Most Expensive Shopping Trip 

Aka Rescue Mission In History! 

Dear Ones, 

As In All Things, We Have Free-Will And Freedom To Choose! 

We May Decide To Do Nothing 

And 

Consort With The Careless Who Don't See Anything Profitable 

In Emulating Jesus Christ Our Savior

The Hope Of Every Man! 

We May Also Choose To Use The Lord's Property

His Talents

His Gifts Given To Us 

In A Manner Sure To Get Gain For Our Master

- Which Also Means Ourselves - 

Which Will Gain For Us The 

"Well Done, Good And Faithful Servant! 

Enter Into The Joy Of Your Lord!" 

I Sincerely  Beseech Us All

Dare And Do Good! 

Choose To Live Right! 

Determine To Humbly Serve The Lord 

And

Gratefully Bless Almighty God! 

May The Holy Spirit Of Truth 

Continue To Guide Us On The Holy Way! 

Peace!

Enjoying The Patience Of Almighty God!?!

We Serve The Amazing God! 

Beloved, 

Consider, If You Will

What It Means To Us Born-Sinners That 

We Are Permitted To Serve The Eternal God 

Who Is Exceedingly Patient With Us In Our Ungodly Behavior! 

The Lord, In Mercy, Has Made Two Options Available To Us: 

We May High-Mindedly Prove Our Ghost-Written By Satan Thesis 

Which Encourages Us To Belly-Up To Any And Every Hog-Trough 

Because 

Its Contents Please Our Then-Present Jaded Desires 

And

Subsequently Die Like Dogs Outside The Holy City 

Or 

Humbly Accept His Unchanging Word

Sovereign Will

And 

Holy Way

And 

Being Obedient Unto The Death That 

Is 

Appointed Once For Every Man

Subsequently Live Forever With The Glorious King 

At The Hour Of His Appointing! 

Dear Ones, 

The Wilfully Wicked 

Will Be Punished When The Lord Decides 

And 

The Obliging Obedient 

Will Be Wonderfully Rewarded At The Hour Appointed! 

Will You Listen To The Siren's Sensually Seductive Song Of Sin 

Or

Will You Walk In Wonderfully Wise Ways 

Trusting The Sure And Secure 

"Thus Saith The Lord!?!" 

We Cannot Love And Serve Two Masters 

And

If You Choose To Be Double-Minded

Please Remember That The Holy One

Jesus Christ Our Lord

Will Never Share His Glory With Another! 

Working Love Does Right Always 

And 

Ever Blesses The One Dearly Loved! 

Love The Lord Of Life

The King Of Love! 

Peace!

With Confidence And In Humility, Depend On The Lord!

Beloved, 

Despite The Challenges We Daily Face

Let Us Approach Our Great God In Prayer 

With Humility, Confidence, And Dependence! 

In Humility 

Because 

You Are In The Holy Presence Of The Eternal And Sovereign God! 

In Confidence 

Because 

You Know That Your God Is Real 

And 

Is Well Able To Provide 

For He Is Our Creator And Our Re-Creator

And 

Our Redeemer-God

Our Deliverer

The Lord Of Life! 

In Dependence 

Because 

We Know That He Knows That We Need Him Who Made Us

And 

We Know That He Loves Us Personally, Sacrificially, Eternally

And 

Desires Our Salvation

Our Healing

Our Cleansing

And 

We Truly Believe That 

He Will Do All That He Has Promised To Do For Us 

By His Death, Burial, Resurrection

And 

Ascension To His Father's House As The Conquering King! 

Dear Ones, 

The Only Guarantees Of 

Goodness And Grace And Glory In This Life 

Are In The Word Of Christ The King Who Gives Us Liberty! 

Let Us This Day Bow Before The Lord With Love

In Humility

Expressing Need, Gratitude, Giving Thanks, And Praise

Believing And Trusting Almighty God 

In The Name Of Our Blessed Jesus

And 

Finish It All With A Glad 

"AMEN! - So Let It Be!" 

Our King Is Coming: 

Get Ready 

And

Stay Vigilant Against Deceitful Snakes

Roaring Lions

And 

Fearsome Dragons! 

Look To Jesus Christ 

The Living, Holy, Light Of Life That 

Leads To Eternal Life! 

Peace!

Know The Way And Employ The Meek And Gentle Spirit!

Jesus Christ The Righteous

Our Only Savior, Redeemer, Friend

King, Lord, And Holy God

Told Us That Our Love For And Obedience To His Will 

To Walk In His Perfect Way 

Would Incur For Us The Malice, Hatred, And Wrath Of 

The Worldly-Wise Unmoved By The Holy Spirit's Call 

To Free-To-All Salvation! 

Our Lord Also Told Us Not To Be Dismayed 

Because 

He, Himself ... Divinity Clothed In Humanity 

And 

Walking In Humility

Had Overcome The World For Us! 

Beloved, 

We Will Be Called To Endure As Jesus Christ Endured

And 

We Will Be Equipped To Endure And Overcome 

As He Endured And Overcame The Malice, Cruelty

Unkindness, Torment, Torture

Deprivation, Denial, Dismissal, Disrespect

And 

Denigration Of The Masses 

By Employing The Meek And Gentle Spirit 

- Against Which There Is No Law -

Praying To The Father Without Ceasing

Working Whilst It Was Yet Day

Walking In The Will And Way Of The Father Of The Faithful

And 

Unwavering Obedience Unto Death! 

Dear Ones, 

Jesus Christ's Mission To Mankind For Mankind's Blessing 

Was Successful 

Because 

He Knew The Plan

Stuck To The Plan

And 

Worked The Steps Of The Plan 

Because 

The Foundation Upon Which He Walked 

Stood Sure And Secure On The Ancient Of Days! 

Do You Know Of

Remember Why

Recognize That

Walk Wisely In

Work Diligently On

And 

Watch Untiringly For The Plan's Unfolding 

While Being Readied For Your Part In Its Finishing!?! 

Let's Repair To Prayer 

And 

Let The Good Book Be Our Guide! 

Look Up! 

Peace!

There Is No Oliver Twist Seated At The Table Of The Lord!

Nobody Seated At The Lord's Table 

Will Ever Have To Do An Oliver Twist 

And 

With Hunger Pangs

In The Shocked Hearing Of 

The Assembled Multitudes Of Likewise Famished, Ask: 

"Please, May I Have Some More!?!" 

Beloved, 

Our Blessed Benefactor With No Equal

Who Owns The Cattle On A Thousand Hills 

And 

Every Last Thing In All Creation

Has No Need To Issue Short Rations To Save Costs 

And

At The Same Time 

Line His Deep Pockets By Fraud! 

Dear Ones, 

Use Your Access 

And 

Your Humble Words Of Hope, Trust, And Faith! 

Boldly Ask "Bigly" For Your Blessings Known Bountiful! 

Just Remember, Though, That 

You Can't Ask The Lord For What Won't Bless You 

And

Glorify His Dear Name! 

Check The Living Word Which Is A Transcript Of 

The Holy God's Unchanging, Unchangeable, Character! 

The Word Works! 

Peace!

VESPERS AT THE END OF THE SABBATH: Prayer: Father, I Choose To Boast Of My Lord Christ!

PRAYER:

Heavenly Father, 

I Come To You As A Child

Trusting You At Your Sovereign Word That 

You Will Train Me Up In The Way That I Should Go 

So That I Will Put Away Childish Things

And

Grow Up In Your Saving Grace 

So That Nothing That The Adversary Of My Soul Does

To Try And Turn Me Away From

The Path Of Righteousness 

Will Entice Me To Depart From The Light That 

Leads To Your Everlasting Life! 

I Come To You As An Eager Student

In The Eternity School Of My Lord Jesus 

Who, Alone, Saves 

And

I Ask You For The Eraser

To Clean The Tablet That Is My Heart

Of All Useless, Unprofitable, Ungodly Things 

Which Would Stunt My Growth

As A Child Of The Everlasting Father

The Prince Of Peace! 

In Saving Faith, Father 

I Beseech You For Your Writing Instrument That 

Will Burn The Truth Into My Heart Permanently 

So That My Thoughts Are Ever With You

And

My Words To My Brethren

Will Be The Wonderful Words Of Life! 

Father, I Choose To Boast Of My Lord Christ 

And

So I Come To You As A Willing Worker 

Desiring To Utilize A Space As A Worker In The Fields 

Which The Master Said Are Ripe For Harvest 

But For Which The Workers Are Few 

To Reap His White Wheat 

And

Bring That Goodly Harvest Home To His Barn! 

Father, My Hope Is In The Lord 

And

I Plead With You To Teach And Feed Me

Lead And Guide Me

Direct And Correct Me

Protect And Provide For Me

And

Commission And Accompany Me 

As I Seek To Do Your Holy Bidding

For It Is In Jesus Christ's Holy Name That 

I, Poor And Needy, Humbly Plead! 

AMEN! 

HAPPY SABBATH: Sliding Up The Glass Mountain!?!

Sweet Life Don't Last! 

People Are Always Looking For A Fat Paycheck

A Cushy Job

A Broad Way

No Taxes Or Traffic

A Carefree Existence

And 

Smooth Sailing! 

Perhaps They Should Add Sliding Up A Glass Mountain 

So That The Fairy Tale Existence Will Not Involve 

Deep Breathing, Scraped Knees, Callused Hands

Gray Hair, Wrinkled Skin, Furrowed Brow

And

Sweat! 

That's A "Nice" Gig In Lala Land! 

Beloved, 

Be Real! 

Anything Worth Having 

Is 

Worth Striving For 

Because 

The Word Of Truth Plainly Shows That 

Idleness, Fullness Of Bread, Pride

And 

No Appreciation For What The Blessing Of 

Work, Labor, Striving, And Exertion Provides

Is 

The Curse

The Bane Of Our Lives! 

We Have To Walk To Work 

And 

We Have To Walk To Get Inside Our Homes! 

We Turn On The Stove To Hot A Pot! 

We Have To Lift Up Our Hand To Eat

And 

We Push A Broom To Sweep! 

Dear Ones, 

We Have A Heart For The Devil 

If We Would A Dear Friend Betray: 

That's Wicked Work! 

Don't Stretch Out Your Hands

To Be A Judas Iscariot!

We Must Have A Heart For The Lord Of Life 

If We Will Say Humble Prayers: 

That's Blessed Work! 

Dare To Be Like The Prophet Daniel!

The Point Here Is Profitable Effort! 

To Eat The Good Of The Land 

And

To Get From Where We Are 

To Where The Lord Christ Calls Us To Be

We Must Work While It Is Yet Day 

Because 

The Night Is Coming When No Man Can Work! 

Let's Be Wise 

And

Work To Show That We Believe On The Lord Christ 

For His Gift To Us Of Eternal Life

The Life That Truly Lasts! 

Peace! 

Humble-Pride!?! Prideful-Humility!?!

There Can Be No Pride 

When We Are Praying To Or Praising The Lord God Almighty! 

Beloved, 

When We Approach The Throne Of Grace

It Is For A Purpose Which Should In All Aspects 

Please Our Creator 

And

Should Ever Be For His Glory And Our Good! 

Can You See Why The Lord Accepted The Prayer Of 

The Publican Who Recognized His Wretched Condition 

And 

Saw His Great Need For 

The Mercy, The Saving Grace, Of The Eternal God 

But

Summarily Rejected The Pompous, Privileged

Posturing Pronouncements Of The Prideful Pharisee 

Who Behaved As Though He Was Doing The Living God A Favor 

By Cataloging His "Virtues" 

In That Very Public Sphere For The World To Hear!?! 

Dear Ones, 

If There Is Even The Mildest Stench Of Pride In Our Prayers

We Have Got Ourselves A Problump 

Aka A Problem Which Will Cause Us To Be Lumped With The Proud

Disobedient, Unrepentant Workers Of Iniquity! 

Let's Make It A Point 

To Ever Remember To Humble Ourselves 

And

Pray 

And

Seek The Lord's Face ... His Presence! 

Pride Got Lucifer Evicted From Heaven: 

Pride Will Keep Us From Entering! 

Please Remember Also That 

There Is No Such Thing As Humble-Pride Or Prideful-Humility! 

There Are No Two-Color Saints' Robes: 

The Robe Of Righteousness 

Is

Clean And White Linen! 

Please Make A Note 

And 

Behave According To Your Preferred Eternal Destination's 

Code Of Conduct! 

Peace!

Happiness Is To Know King Jesus!

What "Makes" You Happy!?! 

Are You Happy!?! 

If Something Or Someone Could Make You Happy

What Or Who Would It Be!?! 

Beloved, 

Unhappy People Don't Like Happy People! 

Angry People Don't Like Calm People! 

Proud People Don't Like Humble People

And

Sinners Don't Like Practicing Christians 

And Yet

All Claim To Be Happy In Their Present Condition: 

Who Is Right!?! 

NEWS FLASH: --

Happiness Via Acquiring Things 

And Using Things To Draw People To Your Side 

Is Not Happiness! 

Just Doing Things To Be Happy

Mouthing Affirmations To Feel Happy

And 

Doing Service Projects To Show That We Are Happy 

Cannot And Will Not Make Us Happy 

When All Of Our Outward Acts To Fill An Inward Need 

Are Stripped Away! 

Think About It ...

Could You ... An Innocent Person

Be "Happy" Locked Away In A Dank, Dismal, Dirty Dungeon 

When All Of Your Sayings, Doables, 

And 

Feelings Of Happiness 

Are Stripped Away!?! 

Dear Ones, 

There Is No True And Lasting Happiness 

And

Contentment 

Outside Of Or Without Being Contented In Christ 

Or Happy In Jesus! 

When Your Roof Flies Off

The Engine Drops Out Of Your Conveyance

And 

Your Withdrawals Ain't Got No Deposits 

But

You're Standing On The Promises Knowing That 

Almighty God Will Provide 

Because

You Have Decided To Follow Jesus ... No Turning Back

You Can Sleep On Rocks 

And 

Eat Grass

And 

Smile Peacefully 

Because 

Jesus Christ The King Has You Sheltered Under His Wings! 

Lashes, Lies, And Loss Have No Leverage 

Against One Who Lovingly Trusts 

The Lord Of Life, Our Creator! 

Wisdom Helps Us To Decide To Be Happy ... In Jesus!  

Peace!

No One On This Planet Walks Alone!

How Often Have We Heard Friends, Family, Acquaintances

And 

Even Not-Yet-Friends 

Boldly Even Arrogantly And Aggressively Say: 

"I Don't Need Anybody! 

I Can Make It On My Own!?!" 

Were You Impressed By Or Were You Saddened For 

The Proud Sayer And Lonely Bird Caught In A Storm Of Despair 

But 

Unable Or Unwilling To Humble Themselves Before The Lord 

And 

Say With Longing Heart: 

"Oh Lord, Please Help Me Now! 

I'm Not Just Alone But I Am So Very  Lonely

And Deathly Afraid

And So Very Weak! 

Please Pity Me In My Distress And Have Mercy! 

Lord, 

You Said To Come Boldly

With All My Burdens

My Sorrows And My Joys

And Share Them With You 

Because Without You

Joys Turn Into Sorrows

But With You, Burdens Are Lifted

And Earthly Sorrows Turn Into Heavenly Joys! 

Father, 

Please Open My Eyes To See Your Light That 

Leads To Abundantly Living And Eternal Life! 

Please Grant Me A Heart Of Flesh 

So That I Will Walk Obediently 

And In Perfect Peace With You! 

Please Help Me To Be The Friend That 

I Would Want To Have For A Friend

And Help Me To Love My Neighbor As I Love Myself 

According To Your Living Word!" 

Beloved, 

Be Careful! 

No One On This Planet Walks Alone! 

You, Me, We, Either Walk In Accord 

And 

Under The Headship Of Jesus Christ The Lord 

Or

Satan By The Fallen Angels Walks Companionably With You! 

Let's Examine Ourselves Right Now! 

Peace!

HAPPY SABBATH + Don't Let Satan Turn You Around!

 

In All Things, Give Thanks!?! 

How Does One Give Thanks For Wood Ants In Your Floor 

And Hornets In Your Attic!?! 

How Are We Supposed To Be Thankful For The Problems

Pressures, Parasites, And Plague-Rats In Our Lives!?! 

With Humility! 

Beloved, 

Wanting To Give Thanks Is Not The Issue! 

Being Obedient 

And

Doing The Will Of Almighty God 

Because 

He Asks Us To

Is 

The Command! 

We Are Soldiers Of The Cross! 

We, For Love, And With Willing Hearts

Offer Up Our Highest Worship 

Aka Obedience With Our Highest Praise Aka "Hallelujah!" 

Because 

We Know That He Who Says "Do!" 

Has Already Done 

And

Has Overcome For Us! 

Jesus Christ's Request 

Is 

A Test Of Our Faith ... Which Works By Love

And

Our Trust In Him Which Can Never Be Misplaced! 

Dear Ones, 

We Must Go Through To Come Through 

And

We Must Get Up To Stand Up 

To Go On Up ... To Jesus Christ's Glory! 

Let Us Remember This Day That 

Our Lord Jesus Equips Us 

And

Accompanies Us To Accomplish All That He Asks Of Us! 

Please Let Us Join Together This Day 

And 

Choose To Defeat Satan 

By Thanking Our Savior Who Satisfies Our Souls 

Through All The Changing Scenes And Seasons Of 

This Short But Eventful Life! 

Don't Let Satan Turn You Around! 

May The Lord Jesus Christ

Our Hope For Glory, Satisfy, Save, Sanctify

And 

Seal Us All Who Are Willing!

Peace!

Recall To Mind!

Remember, Remember, Don't Ever Your Faith Regret

The Lord  Christ Will Never A Faithful Child Forget! 

He Doesn't Forget The Good! 

He Doesn't Forget The Bad! 

Do Good And Good Will Attend You

And 

Over Your Trials Be Glad!

All Things Work For Our Good! 

Jesus Christ Shed Innocent Blood

When On Calvary's Cross He Unwaveringly Stood

So That Satan By Your Worked Faith

Could Be Valiantly Withstood! 

Okay, Class! 

Let's Recap: 

Jesus Saves! 

Mercy Is Free! 

Grace Is Sufficient! 

Don't Fret About Evil-Doers! 

Faith Cannot Fail! 

Hallelujah Is The Highest Praise! 

Obedience Is The Highest Form Of Worship! 

Blessings Await The Faithful! 

Prayer Raises Us Up To God! 

Salvation Came Down! 

Justification Is Instantaneous! 

Sanctification Lasts A Lifetime! 

Sin Is A Reproach To All People! 

Blessed Are The Pure In Heart!

From The Workers Of Iniquity Choose To Depart! 

Wait, Work, Watch: 

Don't Wonder After The Beast!

We Have An Invitation

To Enjoy Jesus Christ's Welcome Home Feast! 

Perfect Peace Is The Gift Of God! 

God Is Our Refuge And Strength! 

The Heavens Declare God's Glory! 

The Good Book Tells The Good News Gospel Story!

Doubters Deny!

Evil Men And Seducers  Will Not To Glory Fly! 

Don't Tempt God! 

There Is No License For Sin! 

Guard Your Heart! 

No Man Can Tame The Tongue! 

There Is No Reason For, Nor Profit In, Pride! 

Grave-Diggers Serve  Grave-Diggers! 

Satan Can't Force You To Sin! 

The Lord Won't Force You To Not Sin! 

Lust Is A Lie Wrapped In A Sinful Desire That Deals Death! 

Beloved, 

The Word Of God Aka The Love Of God 

Works Wonders For The Wise! 

Be Wise! 

Be Humble! 

Be Bold! 

Be Blessed And Be A Blessing! 

Believe The Truth And Love In Deed And In Truth! 

And

Be Confident In Christ! 

In This Is Peace!

Humble Service And Sound Sleep Are Synonymous!

We Are Not Born For Worldly Greatness 

Nor Placed On This Earth To Be Served! 

Did Not Our Lord Jesus Say That 

He Did Not Come To Be Served But To Serve!?! 

Beloved, 

If The Creator God

The King Of Earth And Glory

Our Savior, Redeemer, And Forever Friend

He Who Causes Us To Be Because He Is

Humbly Served His Own  Creation During His Earthly Sojourn 

And

Is Even Now In The Most Holy Place Of The Heavenly Sanctuary 

Working

Making Intercession For Us 

So That We, Cleansed

May Return To The Father's House Of Amazing Love

Why, Why, Why Are We Becoming So Self-Centered 

And 

Self-Serving To Demand That 

Others Serve Us Like They Are Napkins 

Good Only For Using And Refusing!?! 

Dear Ones, 

Never, Ever, Mistake 

Willing Service In The King's Camp 

For Forced Servitude In The Devil's Dungeon! 

The Lord Of Life Asks:

"Whom Shall We Send And Who Will Go For Us!?!" 

Will You Answer The Call To Service 

Or Will You Insist On Being Served 

To The Detriment Of Your Own Soul!?! 

The Proud Are Never Satisfied With What They Are Served! 

Humble Service 

Is 

Ground For Sound Sleep! 

Let's Joyfully Serve Our King Jesus! 

Peace!
