VESPERS AT THE END OF THE SABBATH: Don't Be Blind To The Light Or Deaf To The Message!

 


Since Light, Physical Or Spiritual, Is There ... Is Here
To Show Us The Safe Way To Walk
Why Would We Choose To Be Blind To The Light 
And 
Prefer To Walk In Darkness That Leads To Death!?! 

Since The Lord Jesus Has Given Us His Living, Holy Word 
As A Message Of Salvation With Its Attending Call To Repentance
Why Would We Choose To Ignore, Reject, Reinterpret
Or 
Refuse That Message Which Is Truth That Saves!?! 

Beloved, 

Our Blessed Jesus 
Is 
Our Only Savior And Our Only Healer
And 
The Onus, Duty, Responsibility ... Burden ... Is Upon Us 
To Choose To Accept The Unspeakable Gift That 
Is 
Laid Out Before Us From The Hand Of Him Who Is Our Provider! 

Dear Ones, 

When The Lord Of Life Says To Do "It" 
Do It! 

When The Lord Of Love Says "Go!" 
Get To Stepping! 

When The Lord Calls Your Name
He Is Personally Calling You So Answer! 

Our Salvation Is Free And Available 
And
Our Healing Is Free And Efficacious! 

The Lord Is Not Deceitful 
And 
Neither Should We Be 
When We Accept His Healing And His Salvation
Nor When We Offer Up Our Praises For His Bountiful Blessings! 

The Lord Jesus, The Truth
Is 
Our Light And Our Salvation
And 
Our Only Way Home To Our Father's Home On High! 

Please, Beloved, Accept And Act On The Message
And 
Walk In The Living Light That Leads To Everlasting Life

And

Joyfully Praise Almighty God 
From Whom All Of Our Blessings Continually Flow! 

Peace!

Give Almighty God HIS Praise!


Jeremiah 17:14 - KJV - Bible verse of the day - DailyVerses.net


Our Lord Christ 
Is 
The Great Physician! 

Jesus Christ The Righteous 
Is 
Our Only Savior
And
He Is The Holy God
Our Creator
Redeemer
And 
Forever Friend 
Who ... Alone ... Is Worthy Of Our Worship 
And
Constant, Superlative, Praise! 

Beloved, 

We Humans
And 
Even We Who Call Ourselves Committed Christians
Often Make The Real Mistake Of 
Heaping The Glorious Praise That 
Belongs Solely To The Eternal God
Upon Idols Aka Movie Stars
Musicians
Athletes
Politicians
The Giants Of Commerce And Industry,
And 
Even Priests And Pastors
Who All Obviously Have Feet Of Clay
And 
Stony Hearts 
And 
Ultimately Fall Short Of Our Expectations 
Because 
They Are Men, Fallible, Weak
And 
Desperately Need Jesus Christ 
Just As We Do! 

Wisdom Is A Gift Of Almighty God ...

Let's Ask Our God Faithful For His Wisdom
And
Let Us Be Wise 
And ... Going Forward
Heap All Our Heartfelt Praise Of Thankfulness
And
Gratitude
And 
Awe 
And
Worship
Upon Our All-Knowing God Eternal Who ... Alone
Saves, Seals, Heals 
And
Reveals That Which Blesses 
And 
Prospers Us 
As He Lovingly Leads Us Gently ... Safely 
To Our Eternal Home! 

Brethren,

We Have The Blessed Assurance
Daily Faith 
And 
Available Grace 
And
We Have Hope 
For We Have Seen Calvary! 

Take It To Heart ... 

Respect Is Due To A Common Dog 
But
Glorious Praise 
Solely Belongs To The True And Living Holy God
Jesus Christ Our Lord! 

Don't Cast Your Precious Pearls Before Swine
For They Will Turn Upon You
And
Work Your Soul's Destruction! 

Levy Your Praise Upon Him
Who Can Lead You Home To His Glory:
Praise God From Whom All Our Blessings 
Continually Flow Freely
Timely
And
Blessedly! 
Peace!

PUT YOUR HEART INTO IT: Let's Just Praise The Lord Our God!



He is our Strength and our Healer – The Living Message of Christ


Praise Is A Beautiful Thing To Hear 
When It Is Justified, True 
And 
Heartfelt 
And 
Unforced! 

People Offer Praise To Get Power And Perks 
But
We ... As Christians
Give Our Praise To The Great And Glorious One 
Who Is All Power
And
To Whom Glory, Praise And Honor Rightfully Belongs! 

Book It ...

It Cannot Be Overstressed That
All Of Our Praise Belongs To The Infinite God 
From Whom, By Love, With Mercy
For Grace ... Unmerited Favor
All Of Our Blessings Seen And Unseen
Known And Unknown
Unrequested, Unappreciated
Unthought Of 
And 
Unacknowledged
Generously, Unfailingly, Daily, Flow! 

The Lord Jesus Christ 
Is 
Good To Us 
Because 
He Is Good And Kind 
And 
Forever Faithful
And 
Eternally Loves Us Personally 
And 
Sacrificially! 

Beloved, 

Please Let Us Do Right
Because 
It Is Right
And
For Love Of The Lord
And 
With Grateful, Thankful, Loving Hearts 
- Overflowing With Joy Unspeakable -
Give Our Great And Glorious God
Unfeigned Aka Real, True, Honest, Praise! 

Jesus Christ ... The Only One Righteous
Is 
Worthy To Be Praised 
So Let's Do It
Not Just Because It Is Commanded
But 
For The Very Real Joy ... And Sure Blessings It Brings 
To The Heart That Finds Its Worth 
And
Its Pleasures In Knowing, Honoring, Worshipping 
And 
Willingly Praising 
The King Of Love 
The God Of Grace Now
And 
The God Of Glory Soon To Come 
And 
To Share! 

All The Praise, Glory And Honor 
Rightfully Belongs To Almighty God!!

Indeed It Does!

And I Say "AMEN!!!" To That! 

Brethren,

We Can't Praise Our Lord Enough 
For His Goodness Towards Us 
So Let Us Get Our Praise Practice In Now 
So That We Shall Be Able To Praise Him 
In The World To Come ... And Forevermore! 

Hallelujah ... And AMEN!!!

VESPERS AT THE END OF THE SABBATH : THE SON: The Sum Of The Matter, Re Re! + PRAYER: Please Reclothe Me In My Rightful Mind, Father!

Rejecter Of God's Love
Refuser Of God's Grace
Reconsider Your Situation
Repent Of Your Sin

And
Rejoice At Your Salvation

And 
For Your Reformation
Be Thankful!
Be Glad!

No One Needs Be Lonely!
No One Needs Be Lost!
No One Wanders

No One Wonders
When Upon Jesus Christ 

- The Soon-Coming King -
Their Earthly Lot Is Cast!

"Don't Worry!" Is The Word Of God!
"Be Strong In The Lord!" Is The Word, Too!
Taking Jesus Christ On Board  
Is 
The Sum Of The Matter
And
Having And Using This Holy Power
Will Cause Satan, Sin, And Self
From Your Vicinity Will Scatter!

Consider The Lillies How They Grow!
Consider The Creation
And
Their Willing Show
Of The Majesty Of The Holy God
Of His Creative Prowess
Of His Sustaining Hand Each Day
Dear Sinner Sought ... Saved And Protected
And
Utter A Humble Prayer
To Be Eternally Blessed!






PRAYER:

Dear Lord And Father Of Mankind

Rid Me Of My Foolish Ways! 
Reclothe Me In My Rightful Mind
To Serve You
To Have My Heart To You Ever Inclined
To Render Unto You My Heartfelt Praise!

I'm A Child Of The Dust

I Hold In Me The Breath Of Life
I Have And Need The Love Of God
And In This Vein, Father
I Give Unto My Love
My Trust!

I Cannot Save My Self Nor My Brother
Nor Any Other! 

I Am Your Child, Lord! 
For My God, I Have No Other
Save The Lord Of Life
The King Of Glory
The Prince Of Peace
About Whom
Is
The Good News Gospel Story
Which Story Is True
Is Truth For Today 
The Story That Rails Against Sin
Calling All To Christ's Free Salvation
So That For Own-Sin 
We Shall Not Have To Pay!


Thank You, Lord 
For Light
For Life
For Love
For Laughter
For The Forgiveness That Cleanses Of Sin
And
Does Not Apply Cheap Plaster
To Mask The Look
But Does Not Heal
That Holds On The Medicine 
But Does Not Seal
The Soul From Wanting To Sin
And
Lets In The Air Of Error
That Leads On, Still, To Sorrow
And
Exposing Me To Damnation, The Horror!


Lord, 
Lift Me Up
Help Me To Stand
Help Me To Walk
By Holding Your Strong Arm
Believing, Receiving
Trusting You My Heart To Bless
So That I May Become
A True Child Of The Kingdom
A Known And Rewarded
Spiritual Success!


I Give You All The Glory, Father!
Please Receive Thou Me
And
By Christ In Me Living
Cause Satan, Sin And Self From My Vicinity
In Defeat To Flee!


Please Grant Unto Me These Few Petitions
According To Your Sovereign Will
In Your Blessed Time
And
In Your Holy Way
For It Is In Jesus Christ's Holy Name
In My Gift Of Daily Faith
And
For His Praise
That I Importunately Plea!

I Love You, Lord! 

Please Come Soon! 
AMEN!

Health And Cure!?!

Sin
- The Known Pathogen And Carcinogen -
Is
The Disease!
Jesus Christ The Righteous
Is
The Only Known Cure!


**--**--**--**--**

Macy Is A Bad Diabetic!
He Has The Appropriate Medication
But
He Belligerently Refuses To Take The Medication
Saying:

"I'm Taking A Vacation!"

His Vacation Has Been A Protracted One!

He Ignores The Entreaties Of Family And Friends
And
His Lack Of Due Care And Diligence 
Is 
Starting To Bite Him!

He Has Been To The Emergency Room
By Ambulance
Several Times In The Very Recent Past!
His Latest Visit Was Yesterday!
His Blood Sugar Was A Signal 800!

Heavily Medicated
He Is Presently "Warming" A Hospital Cot!
Things Are Not Looking Up!

**--**--**--**--**

Hartley Was Born In Sin!
By Both Inherited And Cultivated Habits
He Is A Brash And Bold Sinner!

He Was Raised To Know Of Christ Jesus!
His Granny-Ma Taught Him To Pray!
He Learned His Bible Verses At Sunday School, First
And 
Then At Sabbath School!
His Present Lifestyle Is Raising Eyebrows!

Side-Eye Greets Him At Church!
He Was Defrocked As A Church Elder!
He Got Re-Baptised After Entering  A Lengthy Period Of Counseling!
He Received The Right Hand Of Fellowship
But
Time Is Showing That He Has Not Humbled Himself
Under The Mighty Hand Of God!

Hartley Is No Longer An Elder
But
He Demands That The Pastor In The Pulpit
And
The People In The Pew
Address Him As Elder Should They Wisely Desire
To Have Edifying Converse With Him!

He Is Turning The Church Into A Battle Field
Even As He Tells Others That:

"Jesus Christ Saves!"

And To

"Trust The Word!"

**--**--**--**--**

Jesus Christ The Lord
The Righteous Judge
The Good Shepherd
The Creator God
Our Savior, Redeemer And Friend
Is 
The Great Physician!
He Promises His Faithful People Health 
And 
Cure!

The Good Book Of The Gospel 
Is 
The Efficacious Medicine
And
The Heart Repentant Of Sin 
Is 
The Spoon Into Which The Medicine Is Poured For
Perfect Dissemination To The Whole Body Of 
The Sinner Saved!

The Prayer Of Faith 
Is 
The Buffer Against Which The Disease Called Sin
Cannot Hope To Breach
And
Listening To The Gospel Truthfully Preached
And
Hearing The Testimonies Of Over-Comers
Encourages Working Faith
So That Into Complacency Over Evil
We Do Not As Those Inebriated
Fall Deeply Into Unprofitable Sleep!

Singing The Songs Of Zion Are A Tasty, Tasty, Treat!

The Great Physician's Tools Of The Trade ...

  • Truth And Light
  • Faith And Prayer
  • Willing Forgiveness And Sure Salvation
  • Accepted Repentance And Proffered Redemption
  • Free Grace
  • Peace And Joy
  • Love And Blessing
  • Hope
  • Help And Healing
  • Angelic Protection And Necessary Provision
  • Correction And Direction
  • Comfort Of The Holy Spirit


The Fallen-Man Excuse ...

  • I Am Just Not Ready!
  • That Road Is Too Hard!
  • What Will People Think!?!
  • Deprivation Does Not Become Me!
  • That Way Is Too Boring!
  • I'm Too Young For Old-Time Religion! 
  • I'm Sowing My Wild Oats While I Can Enjoy The No-Harvest Labor!


The Problem With Procrastinators 
And The Willful Disobedient 
And The Wantonly Ignorant ...

The Bottle For Medicine
Is 
Filled With The Pure Milk Of The Lord's Holy Truth
But
The Hungering, Thirsting Patient
Is
Dying 
Because 
He Wants To Swallow What Can't Be Drunk
And
Wants To Chew What Can't Be Swallowed!

The Big Question 
For The Household Of Faith ...

If You Have Truth
Need Truth
And
Wittingly, Willfully, Wantonly
Deny And Discard Truth
Who Is Responsible For Your Physical Demise
Or
Your Spiritual Damnation!?!

The Bottom Line ...

Jesus Christ Can Only Save
The One Who In Him Does Believe!
Jesus Christ Can Only Redeem
The One Who Willingly Of 
His High And Holy Blessing Hand
Does Free Salvation Receive!

No Matter How Efficacious A Medicine
If It Is Not Opened
And
Diligent Used 
For
The Specified Time
It Is A Medicine That Does Not Work!

**--**--**--**--**

Have You Taken Jesus Christ
And
Trusted Him
At His Holy Word
As Yet ... Today!?!

God's Book Of Remembrance




Oh,  Wicked Man
Why Don't You Fear Almighty God?
He Is Your Creator!

Why Won't You Honor God?
He Is The Great I Am!

Why Won't You Bless God?
He Is The True Provider
AND
He Holds Your Days And Years
In The Palm Of His Holy Hand!

Oh, Wicked Man
How Long Do You Believe
You Can Exercise Power Without Limit?
How Long Do You Believe
You Can Indulge In Vice Without Restraint?

Even Though You Refuse To Acknowledge
That There Is God Almighty In The Heavens
You May Rest Assured
That He Has In His Keeping
Your Presumptuous Vile Record!

God's Book Of Remembrance
Holds Records 
Of Each Life's Doings
AND
Priest
Pope
Pastor
President
Prime Minister
Peasant
Rich
Poor
Have
Have Not
Lofty
Lowly
Queen 
King
ALL 
Shall Stand Before God's Judgment Seat
To Give An Accounting
Of Each Life's Work
AND
To Receive Its Justly Earned Reward!

Elevating Oneself
To The Post Position of "God"
Will Never Denigrate The Eternal God 
To The Lowering Standard Of Fallen Man
AND
Listening
Following
AND
Obeying The Voice
Of Him-Whose-Power-Is-Putrid
Will Not Unseat Almighty God
Nor Turn Him Into Offal
At Awful Man's Command Or Tweet!

Oh, Wicked Man
Repent Of Your Ways
For
The Book Of Remembrance Has An Eraser
Willing To Erase
All Sins Against God
For Which Confessing Men Repent!

Please Don't Be Like Lucifer
Now Satan Of Dread Fame
Committed 
AND
Fixed
In Rebellion!
Go To
The Father God
AND
At His Feet
Humbly Repent!

Jesus Christ 
Will Lift You Up
With Hands Scarred
By The Price Of Our Salvation
AND
Hold You To A Heart
Once Broken To Gain Your Return
Clean
At The Eternal Father's Eternal Throne!
Please Don't Cast Away Your Hope!

In God
All Is Good
AND
Eternal
AND
Hope Is Made Real
If Faith In God 
Does Not Fail!

Trust In The Living God
Not The Plaster Saint
Not The Wood Nymph
Nor 
The Other Useless Manufacturings
Of Man's Hands
Those Treasured Idols 
Of Precious Stone 
Gold
Bronze
AND
Silver!

Please Stop Laying Up Treasure 
Which Will Curse You In The Day
When
Jesus Christ Himself 
As Conquering King
- The Judge Of All Flesh -
Shall Appear!

I Beseech You, Brethren
Let Us Lay Up For Ourselves
Treasures In Heaven
Which We Will Receive In The Holy Celebration
AND
Please Resign 
From The Crew Whose End Is Death
Eternal Death
Destroyed
With No Hope
Ever
Of Being By Jesus Christ
Renewed!




It Is Better 
To Bend Now
Worshiping The Living God
Than 
To Burn Later
Because Of Rebellion!

*********

Repentance Is Sin-Erasing Ink!
