VESPERS AT THE END OF THE SABBATH: Secure Attachment!



KJV Ephesians 5:31
31 For this cause shall a man leave his father and mother, and shall be joined unto his wife, and they two shall be one flesh.

Safe, Seen, Soothed, And Secure! 
These Four S's Of Marriage Aka Secure Attachment 
Are Or Should Be Of Intense Interest And Careful Study 
To All Committed Christians! 

Beloved, 

Did Not Jesus Call The Church His Bride 
And
Are We Not Espoused To Him As Our One Husband!?! 

We Are Safe In The Arms Of Jesus! 
We Are The Apple Of His Eye
And 
He Is The All-Seeing God! 

We Have As Our Comforter 
The Holy Spirit As A Gift From Our Savior 
Who Promises Never To Leave Us Or Forsake Us 
And
We Are Ever Welcome To Approach The Throne Of Grace Boldly 
To Obtain Mercy 
And
Grace To Help In Our Time Of Need! 

We Are Secure In The Care Of The King Who Died To Save Us 
And 
Lives To Make Intercession For Us 
And 
Is Returning To Take Us Home To His Father And Our Father's House 
Where We, Immortalized And Incorruptible, Will Live Eternally
Free From Self And Sin! 

Dear Ones, 

Dare And Choose To Display Your Marriage Certificate: 
Open Your King James Bible ... And Pray And Read ... And Enjoy To The Max! 

Peace! 

HAPPY SABBATH BLESSINGS AND BOUNTIES!

THE FORMULA: The Struggle Of The Christian

Brethren,

This Is How The Formula
For The Struggle Of The Christian Goes:

Sense Aka What I Feel 
Versus Faith Aka What I Daily Receive, Have And Exercise
And
Fear Aka Ungodly Fear
Versus Hope Aka The Lord Is My Portion Saith My Soul
Therefore Will I Trust In Him! 
The Blessed Assurance!

What The Christian Often Does ...

He Complains To The Lord About His  Present Conditions
And Then 
He Remembers Whose Child He Is
And
He Immediately Comforts Himself 
Regarding His Future Estate

And

Life Being What It Is
He Recycles, Rinses, And Re-Uses
His Complaints And His Comforts 
- We Need To Study About The Prophet Jeremiah -

And Ultimately

Watching, Waiting, Faith That 
Works Because Of Love ... Wins!

The Facts Remain ... 

I Am ... You Are ... A Christian!
We Are Christians
And
I Pray To The Father That That Is
 By Name And By Nature!

Let's Make This Really Personal!

I Have Personal Experience!
I Know The Lord!
He Hears ... And Answers ... My Prayers
And
I've Seen His Hand Work In The Lives Of Others!


The Father Is Faithful
And He Has Promised ... In Blood
Never To Leave You Nor Forsake You!

The Lord God Almighty Says:


 Pray!
Trust!
Believe!
Be Obedient!
Endure ... To The End!

Even In The Low Dungeon ... That Place Of Despair
With No Lower Place To Descend To Than Death
I Will Raise My Voice In ... Lamentation
Then A Psalm Of Praise
And
Then I Will Share The Wisdom 
Found In Isaiah 41: 10, 13, 14
Because 
I Have Living Experience
And
I Will Rest In The Song Of Solomon 
And 
In The Book Of Daniel The Prophet
And
In The Revelation Of Jesus Christ The Righteous
By The Hand Of Apostle John The Aged!

In Short
We Are To Recognize And Know That We Have A Future!

Indeed!
I Know That I Have An Expected End
And
So Do All Of Us Who Choose To Accept The Promise!


The Father  ... By The Master
Has Promised All His People
A Prepared Home In Glory Land!

My God Is Omniscient!
My God Hears All!
My God Sees All!
My God Knows All!
My God Is In All!
My God Judges All
But 
As For Me
Because I Trust In Him ... In His Living Word
Because I Claim ... Believe ... The Promises
Because I Know His Hand
Of Love
Of Chastisement
Of Correction
Of Protection
Of Direction
Of Providence
Of Blessing ... For Confession Of Sin
For Repentance For Known Sin
For Choosing Him As My Everlasting Portion
Who Knew Me Before I Was
Who Ordained My Position
Who Called Me To His Side
He Shall Be ... He Is ... My King
My Lord, My God, My Hope, My Help
My Salvation 
My Redeemer
And
I Shall Press On To The Mark
To My High Calling
Because 
My God Ever Lives To Make Intercession For Me
And
I Personally Know He Cares For Me ... Personally!

We Should All Be Personalizing This Effort! 








Our Father Says: Children, Fear Not! 
Our Faith Says: Father, We Trust Your Word! 
Our Feelings Say: But, What If!?! 
Our Enemies Say: There Is No God! 
Our Hope Says: In Godly Fear Is Great Reward! 
Our Obedience Says: I Know In Whom I Believe
And 
I Live For Him Who Cares For Me! 

The Lord Is My Light ... My Salvation
And 
The Strength Of My Life
And 
I Will Not Be Afraid 
Because 
He Knows My Name, My Voice
My Heart, My Condition
And
I Know His Sacrificial Love
And 
I Will Lovingly Do As He Lovingly Bids Me! 

I Trust In Jesus Christ The Lord 
And 
I Will Endure All Things 
For He Is Health And Cure! 
I Will Not Fear Man Nor The Devil: 
I Hold The Living God In Godly Fear
And 
I Will Unceasingly Pray! 

Jesus Christ Is My ... Is Our ... Perfect Peace! 

Peace Be Still!
Oh, How Glorious It Is To A God
In Whom We Can Trust To Strengthen Us ...!

... And Trust To Carry All Of Our Burdens
As Long As We Trust And Obey His Word!

Brethren,

To Reiterate And Reinforce
Please Recognize The Viable Keys To The Kingdom:

Trust The Word ... Not The Lying Eye! 
Obey The Will Of God 
And 
Don't Walk In The Corrupt, Selfish, Self-Pitying Way! 

When You Trust And Obey
You Will Endure!

The Lord Has Made The Way Plain ... And Perfect!

Oh, That Men Would Praise The Lord 
For His Goodness To The Children Of Men! 

Let's Thank God For Grace Now
And Coming Glory To Share!

Indeed!
He Is Good ... And Forever Faithful!

VESPERS AT THE END OF THE SABBATH: If Sinners Only Knew What Saints Of God Know

When He Was Born
He Was Seen To Be A Beautiful Child
And
When He Was Dedicated To The Lord
He Was Given A Beautifully Simple Name
Easy To Remember
A Breeze To Spell
Replete With Meaning:

Reach After God By Faith

As He Went Through The Early Life Stages
And
Grew Into His Majority
That Is ... Reached The Age Of Consent
The One Thing He Had Daily Heard From His Loving Parents

Marvellous Grace
And
Merciful Powers 


Was

Expect Great Things From God!

Reach After God By Faith
Having Always Lived To Expect Great Things From God
Became A Man Of Faith
And
Set Up His Own Household With The Very Homely Looking
But
Oh, So Kind Lady

Grace Is Free


Odd Arrangements Call Forth Comment ...

The Proud And Pretty Girls
And
The Available Painted Ladies
Were Not Well Pleased
And
The Whole Village Knew It!

Faith And Grace, For Short
Were Contented In The Lord
Because
Jesus Christ Was In The Family
And
They Had A Happy, Happy, Home!

I Should Tell You Here That
The Adversary Of Souls
Hated Everything And Everybody
Associated With
Called By
Attached To
Or
Smelling Of Jesus Christ's Faith And Grace
And
With An Unmitigated Hatred
He Hated, Hated, Hated
Reach After God By Faith
And
His Wife, Grace Is Free!

Lil' Things Started Happening!

At First
The Occurrences Were Considered Happenstance!

This Is Life: Things Happen!
No Biggie!

But ...

As We All Know
- Having Previously Recognized The Hand Of Satan
As He Tormented The Lord Christ
From The Cradle To The Grave -
Evil-Doing ... Just Like Hatred ... Escalates
Because, Well
More Is More
And
More Is Always Better!

Soon ...

What Had Been Petty Annoyances
Started Shaping Up To Be Real Problems
At Least In The Eyes Of The Unbelieving Onlookers!

When You Know Truth
You Can Always Recognize Lie!
When You Live Love
You Can Always Recognize Hate!
When You Don't Have A Savior
Satan Satisfies!
When You Don't Have Salvation
You Just Live Like One Living Just To Die!

Fancy Ladies ... Dishabille
- Those Felonious Minions Of The Fraud -
Took To Following Faith Around His Property
At His Work
At Church
When He Was With Grace
And
When He Walked Alone
And
A Proud And Pretty Girl Got Him Fired From His Job!

A Tree Fell On The Roof Of Their Bedroom!
Three Mortgage Payments ... Already Paid
Were Suddenly Missing!
The Sewer Line Burst!
A Truck Ran Into The Corner Of The House!

Grace Is Free Then Lost Her Job 
- For Cause -
For Absenteeism And Bad Attitude
The Day After Winning
The Employee Of The Year Award For
Perfect Attendance
Product Knowledge
Customer Service
Willingness To Serve
Best Attitude
And
On-Time Performance!

A Painted Lady Got Faith Arrested For Doing A Thing
Something
Anything
Nothing!

You See
Their Problems Came About 
Because
They Were Not Into The Secular And The Worldly
But
Into The Sacred And The Heavenly!

Faith And Grace
Were In Thought, Word, And Deed
Friends Of The True, Holy, Living, Eternal, Faithful God!
They Were Friends Of Satan's Enemy
And
In The Warped Mind Of The Arch-Fiend
This Betrayal Could Not Be Allowed To Go Unchallenged!

This Betrayal Must On All Counts Be Answered
And
The Destroyer Was Well On His Way
To Accomplishing His Nefarious Goals
Or
So. He. Thought!

Servants Of The Lord ...

When You Live A Life Of Love
Trusting In The Faithful God Of Love Above
Enduring All Things Against You As Badges Of Honor
You Do Not Before The Damned One
Bow Down 
And 
In Fright ... Cower!

You Stand Up For Jesus!
You Live For The King!
You Follow The Shepherd
And
Trust In Him Moment By Moment
Day By Day
Hour By Hour!

The World
- That Is The Neighbors -
Was Watching ... Wondering
Amazed At The Strength
The Character
The Faithfulness
The Endurance
The Joy
The Peace
Exhibited By These Two Pillars Of 
The Great And Coming King!

The Proper Use Of Knowledge Is Power ...

If Only They Knew That
Great Expectation Is Not Just A Book Or A Song!
If Only They Knew That
Grace Is Free Is A Promise Of Almighty God
And
Not An Access To A Free-Sinning Bong!

Truth Be Told ...

Reach After God By Faith
Lived Out His Name
And
Inculcated Into His Life The Anthem 
- Expect Great Things From God -
Daily Sung To Him By Both His Parents
From His Birth Even Until Now!

Faith Leaned On Available Grace
Which Is Always Free
And
Available Grace Held Unto Free Mercy!

The Lesson Taught
The Lesson Learnt ...

Reach After God By Faith
And
Grace Is Free
Knew Truth And Understood That
As Faithful Followers Of The Lord Christ That
Followers Follow ... AFTER ... The Shepherd Faithfully!
Sheep Who Are Known Followers
Do Not Lead The Shepherd Who Is The Leader!

Reach After God By Faith
And
Grace Is Free
Showed To All Observing Them That
Grace Is Indeed Free When By Faith
Believers
Reach After God To Accept The Hand Of Hope
The Hand Of Help
To Accept The Gift Of Love
The Gift Of Life
From The Lord Of Life
The Giver Of Salvation!

Brethren,

Satan Only Goes After Those Who Are Not His
Or More Properly Stated
Those Who 
- By Word And Deed -
Belong To The Lord Christ!

When We Accept That Jesus Christ The Righteous
Is
Our Only Answer
Our Only Hope
Our Only Help
Our God
Our Lord
Our King
Our Savior
Our Redeemer
Our Shepherd
Our Peace
Our Rest
The Only One By Whom The Believer 
Is 
Truly Blessed
Satan Cannot
- Will Not - 
Win In The War That He, Roaring
Is 
Angrily, Aggressively, Waging
Against The One That The Lord Christ
By Innocent Spilt Blood 
Is 
Saving!

Trust Jesus Christ To Deliver
Because
He Has By His Death, Burial, Resurrection
Ascension
And
Intercession For You
Has Already Delivered You!
All You Need To Do Is Open Your Eyes
And
Your Heart
To Recognize That Fact!

Jesus Christ Saves!

When Recognition Truly Dawns ... In Prayer!

A Prayer Is The Cry Of The Soul
AND
Because The Holy Spirit
Is There To Bless And Teach
And
Groan In Intercession
In Our Stead
And Chide And Guide
We Learn ... Even As We Pray!


I Was Saying My Prayers One Morning ...


Lord,
Please Grant The Officers
Wisdom And Understanding
And
Protection And Direction
And
Grant To The Soul In Mortal Distress
Care And Comfort
And
Help And Healing
All Accordingly To Your Will
And
In Your Way!
Pity Us All, Lord
And
Do For Us What None
But
A Holy God Can Do! ...


And ... I Stopped

For I
In That Short Moment
Honestly Realized
AND
Recognized Suddenly
AND
Appreciated Thoroughly
That There Is
No Other Being aka Satan
Wannabe God
Mere Man
False God
Idol
Holy Man
Man Thinking Himself As God
Priest Acting As If He Is God
That Can Deliver On The Stated Request
For Blessings
As I Had Just Put Forth
In My Prayer!

How Shocked
Totally Not Shocked
I Am!

Grace And Mercy
Are Met Together
In Our Father's Hands!

Pitying Love
AND
Gentle Caring
Reigns Down Upon Us
From Grand Heaven Above!

Peace And Rest
Combine To Give Us
Respite
From The World
AND
Truth And Light
Combine To Give Us
Ammunition
With Which To Fight The Churl!

Sanctification
Justification
Sustenance
AND
Provision, Too
All Come From The Heart
Of Him Who Made Us
Along With
Forgiveness
Salvation
AND
Redemption, True!

And ...

To Top It All Off
Our Creator
AND
Redeemer
Designates Himself
Our Very Best Friend
The Friend Who Sticks Closer Than Any Brother
The Friend Who Can Our Sickness Unto Death Mend
AND
Raise Us Unto Eternal Life
In The Day
That The End Of The Beginning Shall Cease
AND
The Beginning Of No End
Unto Us
Shall Be Released!

My Heart
In This Is Well Satisfied
AND
So I Say ...


Lord,
Thank You
For Truly Showing Us
Who Is The Real God!

Thank You
For Truly Exposing To Us
Who Is
The Real God-Fraud!

Praise You, Lord
For Being Holy
And
Faithful
And
The Real Father
And
The Eternal God
That No One Can Truly Challenge
Or Ask
Why
How
What For
Do You Do
What You Do?!

Thank You, God
For Being You
For We Know That
Trusting You
Will See Us To The Great Day
When The Celebration Of New Life
Starts ... In Truth!

Bless You, Lord!
We Love You
And
In Jesus Christ's Holy Name
We, Committed, Plea And Stand!
AMEN.
