VESPERS AT THE END OF THE SABBATH: At The Name Of Jesus!

John 20:31 KJV

But these are written, that ye might believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God; and that believing ye might have life through his name. 

At, For, In, And With The Name Of Jesus Christ Our Only King, Every Knee Shall Bow To Give Him Honor, Glory, And Unfeigned Praise! 

If You Say So, Sorrel! 

I Say So, Samdhie, And The Immortal Word Of The King Of Glory Says So ... Well, That Living Word Said It First, And I Am Agreeing And Repeating It Because It Is True! 

Sooo, Some Old-Time Book Says Something And You Take It As Solid, And You Run With It And Spout Off To People Like You Are Getting Paid!?! 

Samdhie, Samdhie, Samdhie ... Tsk, Tsk, Tsk! Oh, How I Feel For You! 

Feel For Me, Sorrel!?! 

Yes, Samdhie, I Seriously Feel For You That Nobody Loved You Enough To Tell You Of All The Goodies Of Mercy, Love, Grace And Truth Which Are Contained In That Old Book That You Are Diminishing ... For Lack Of Knowledge! 

That Same Old Book Speaks Well Of You When It Says: "My People Are Destroyed For Lack Of Knowledge!" 

See You, Samdhie! 

Wait Up, Sorrel! Wait Upppp! Who Is it In That Old Book Who Is Calling People "My People" Like They Belong To Them!?! 

Oh, You Poor Dear! You Have Been Seriously Robbed Of A Saving Education! 

Come Let Me Give You A Cuddle To Help You Get Over Your Pain! 

I'm Not In Pain, Sorrel! 

You Will Be, Samdhie! 

Oh, Whatever! Just Give Me The Facts! 

Very Well, Samdhie! 

The Speaker Is The Creator Of All Things, The King Of Earth And Glory, The Judge ...! 

... Judge!?! 

Judge! The Judge Of All Flesh! We, You, Too, Will Be Judged Based On What We Have Done In The Flesh! 

You Will Be Judged By What's In That Very Book: What You Knew And Rejected! What You Had The Opportunity To know And Refused To Know! What You Knew About And Refused To Act Upon, OR Simply Chose To Ignore As In Chose To Ignore Because It Aggravated Your Nerves, Stepped On Your Corns, Or Simply Did Not Jive With Your Lifestyle! 

Come On, Sorrel, You Can't Be Serious! 

Samdhie, Sweetheart, I Am Eighteen-Wheeler Head-On Collision Massive Stroke Aortic Valve Shredding Impossible To Be Saved Serious! 

There Are No Jokes In The Bible! 

Stop Scaring Me, Sorrel! 

I'm Not Scaring You, Samdhie! I'm Shining Light Into The Darkness Of Your Delusion Which Says That The Lord's Book Is Useless! 

I Didn't Exactly Call It Useless, Sorrel! 

You Didn't Call Is Useful Either, Samdhie! 

That "Old" Book Is Ever New, And Is Good For Every Age and Stage Of Mankind's Development ... Our Personal Development! 

Sorrel, I'm Sorry! Would You Tell Me About The Creator!?! 

Sure Can! 

When Can We Meet!?! 

How About Right Now!?! 

I Thought You Had ... Oh, Never Mind! 

Good! 

Jesus Christ, The Creator, Is Our Savior, And We Are Sealed Against The Day Of His Wrath Against The Rejectors Of His Free-To-All Salvation By His Sweet Holy Spirit, And We Live Forever In His Father's House Where There Are Many Mansions, Where He Is Gone To Prepare A Place For Each One Of Us Who Accepts His Unspeakable Gift Of Eternal Life With Him, No Force, No Fury! 

One Thing, Though! You Must Give Up Sin, Self, Selfishness, And Satan! 

Give Up Satan, Sorrel!?! I've Never Had Satan! 

Oh, Samdhie, Your Case Is Worse Than I Thought! 

Samdhie, You Are A Sinner By Birth, And By Choice, And By Practiced Lifestyle, And You Sin By Thought, Word, And Deed Daily! 

Oh, Sorrel, You Make My Situation Sound So Very Hopeless! 

Far From It, Samdhie! 

Jesus Christ The Righteous Is Calling You So That Of Hell You'll Only Have An Arial View! 

Continue Walking In Your Own Selfish Way, And For Your Own Sins You Will Have To Pay! 

If I Don't Pay For My Own Sins, Sorrel, Who, Pray Tell, Is Foolish Enough To Pay For Them!?! 

The Creator, Your Personal Savior ... If You Ask Him: He Already Died To Pay For the Cost Of Your  Transgressions! 

You Mean That The Lord Jesus Is My Substitute, My Body Double, Like In The Movies!?! 

Yes, But With Real Blood, Pain, And Ultimate Consequences! 

Lord Jesus, Save Me! 

AMEN!!! 

He Will! 

Enjoy His Peace! 

Let Me Get My Hands Full!!!

PRAYER: Dear Jesus, I Just Want To Thank You BUT ...!!!

Psalm 105:1 KJV

O give thanks unto the LORD; call upon his name: make known his deeds among the people. 

PRAYER:

Dear Jesus, 

I Love You! 

Today, After I Started To Say My Prayers, I Had A Brilliant Idea! I Decided That I Would Do As Suggested And Spend More Time Thanking You For Your Myriad Blessings Daily, Moment By Moment, Bestowed Upon Me! 

Being Me, I Picked A Randon Number Of Blessings, 1,000,000,000 - I've Lived A Long Time - And Considering Eye Blinks, Tears, 1.5 Gallons Of Blood Drops Coursing Through My Veins In Orderly Procession, Heart Beats, Lung Inflations And Deflations, Kidney And Liver Functions, Cell Generation, Regeneration, Waste Processing In The Greatest Processing Facility Ever Created, Skin, Hair, Nails, Growing, Shedding, Shining, Stretching, Walking, Running, Sitting, Standing, Ears, Seeing Eyes, My Tongue, Teeth, Chewing, Swallowing, Speaking, My DNA, Who I Am, Who I Was, Who I Am Becoming, What You Have Done For Me, What You Are Doing To, For, And Through Me, Who I Am Becoming In You And Through You, Faith, Grace, Mercy, Love, Hope, Help, Healing, Truth, Light, Bird Song, The Cry Of A Baby, Laughter, Sacred Music, The Beauty Of Nature, Changing Seasons, Food, Shelter, Clothing, Care, Comfort, The Painted Sky, The Rivers, Seas And Oceans, Every Single Word Of The Word Of God, Daily Victories Over Sin, Self, And Satan, Kind Words, Thoughtful Deeds Of Blessing Received, The Covenant Rainbow, Your Body, Lord, Your Life, Your Name, Your Promises Given, Kept, In Process, The Revelation Of You, The Divine, To Me, A Finite, Fallible Creature Lifting Me Up To Your Level Because Of Your Condescension To Mine! 

I Started To Pray And Thought To Myself: How Long Would It Take Me To To Tell You "Thank You!" For  1,000,000,000 Itemized Units Of Loving Care Aka Gifts Of Love And Faithfulness, And Asked The Brain, The Numbers! 

At Sixty Seconds A Minute, Sixty Minutes An Hour, Counting For Sixteen Hours Per Day, At One Second Per Number (Impossible), It Would Take Me Approximately 48 Years To Thank You For The First Billion Gifts! 

Lord, Things Then Got Squirrely Real Fast! 

I Can't Thank You Because While Counting By Praying, I Can't Do Anything Else, AND To Top It All Off, I'll Be Racking Up Billions Of Other Things For Which I Will Have To Say "Thank You!" For! 

Lord, I Will Be Honest, Truthful, Forthright, Straightforward And Just Tell It Like It Is: "I Need To Be With You Through The Ceaseless Ages Of Eternity So That I May Thank You Forever Because Thanking You Will Take Eternity ... And Eternity Has No End!" 

Lord, You've Alloted Mankind 70 Years As The Standard, And 80 Years For Strength, And I Am Daily Nearer My Expiration Date ... PLUS ... You Have Made It Plain That Tomorrow Is Promised To No One! 

Well, Lord, I'll Be Bold! 

I Want YOUR Promised Sweet Tomorrow In The Land Of Peace, Where Peace, Where You Dwell, Where There Is Living Light, Holy Love ... Everlasting Day! 

I Desire You! 

Equip Me: I Choose To Cooperate With The Holy Spirit! 

I Won't Ever Be Able To Thank You Here OR Over There, But, In Faith, With A Grateful Heart, I Will Do My Level Best To Thank You More! 

You Are On My Side, I Am For You: I Am Walking With You: Please Help Me To Walk With You Now ... Always ... Forever! 

My Heart Is Yours! 

AMEN!!!

VESPERS AT THE END OF THE SABBATH: There Is No Ascent Without Assent!

Mark 12:30 KJV

And thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind, and with all thy strength: this is the first commandment.

Pakka!?! 

Yes, Mama Preach! 

I Only Have One Solid Piece Of Advice For You, And I Sincerely Plead With You That You Do Not Cast It Aside, Or Allow Anyone, Even Someone Using A Silken Cord Of Affection, To Encourage You To Set Aside This, The Lord's Saving Grace To And For His People! 

I'm Listening, Mama Preach, And I Give You My Word, My Bond, As A Committed-To-Christ Christian! 

Very Well, Pakka, See To It That You PACA! 

What!?! Are You Making Fun Of My Name, Mama Preach!?! 

Far From It, Pakka! 

Okay Then! I'm Listening! 

Listen Up Everybody! 

Question One: If The Lord Sends You Somewhere, What Do You Have!?! 

Yes, Henley! 

We Have His Permission To Go Where He Sent Us! 

Question Two: You Have Been Instructed To Do Something By The Lord! What Have You Received!?! 

Yes, Cloristine! 

We Have Received The Lord's Authority To Perform As Prescribed! 

Question Three: When You Choose To Cooperate With The Holy Spirit In Doing The Father's Will, What Have You Done!?! 

Yes, Monty! 

Mama Preach, When We Cooperate With The Holy Spirit, We Give Assent Aka Agree Aka Consent To Be Used Of The Holy God! 

Question Four: While We Are Willing To Be Used By And For The Eternal God, We Often Feel Less Than Adequate To Fulfill The Task We Are Called To Perform! When We Pray About The Matter, What Are We Effectively Doing!?! 

Yes, Charlie! 

Mama Preach, I Am Truly Glad To Inform You That When I Pray About Such Things, I Am Blessed To Ask The Lord For His Ready, Willing, And Able-To-Give-Me Assistance! 

Thank You, Brethren! 

Beloved, Pakka, I Asked You, I Ask You, I Ask Us To PACA, Not Pack It Up Or Pack It In! 

I Ask Us To Never Make A Move Without The Permission, Authority, And Assistance Of The Good Lord Who Loves Us With An Everlasting Love! 

Of Course, Permission, Authority, And Assistance Are All Moot When We Withhold Our Consent, And Refuse To Cooperate With The Holy Spirit Who Leads Us Into All Truth! 

Brethren, Tread Softly In The Presence Of The Holy God! 

Know This: Grudging Consent Is Just As "Good" As Disobedience! 

Fix Your Mind: Fix Your Attitude: Fix Your Face! Obedience Comes Of Love! 

Please Be Pleased To Walk With The Lord Of Life, The King Of Glory, Who Is Our Peace! 

And

Remember, Remember, Don't Ever Forget That There Is No Ascent Without Assent! 

Peace!

VESPERS AT THE END OF THE SABBATH: The Shepherd!

John 10:14 KJV 

I am the good shepherd, and know my sheep, and am known of mine. 

Glenda, Why Is Everyone Snickering At The New People!?! 

Wait Patiently, Oana, And All Will Be Revealed! 

A LITTLE BIT LATER ... 

Waaait! Did I Hear That Newbie Call Her ... Nahhhh ... Impossible!?! 

Nothing Is Wrong With Your Hearing, Oana! 

Lord, Make Peace! 

He Will, Dear Lady, He Will! 

Attention, Everyone, Let's Begin! 

Today, We're Talking  About Sin, Rest, Destruction, Peace, Choices, Self, And Decision-Making! In Short, Brethren, We're Going To Discuss Life! Isn't It Beautiful!?! 

That's Easy For You To Say, Sis. Hepher! 

There Was A Moment Of Stunned Silence, And Then The Class Started To Howl With Laughter! 

The Teacher's Face Didn't Even Wrinkle! 

When Order Had Been Restored And The Students Had Calmed Down, With A Perfectly Straight Face The Teacher Said: 

This Is What Happens When You Don't See The Whole Picture, Know The Whole Story, And Don't Know The Real Name, Full Name, Blessed Name Of Your Lord, God, Teacher, Leader, Feeder, Sustainer, Savior, Guide, Redeemer, And Forever Friend, The Final Judge Of All Mankind! 

When You Don't See The Whole Picture, You Don't Know That There's Something Vitally Important Missing, And You Denigrate The Name, That Glorious Name, Of Him Who Alone Saves! 

Jesus Christ Is Our Shepherd, The Good Shepherd ... And Shepherd Is My Name! I Lead You In His Name! 

Now, Because The Name Of The Shepherd Is Not Totally Visible, You, Me, We Live Life As We Please, Forgetting The One Above, He Whose Name Is The Name Above All Names! 

We Do Not See That Living Life Without Jesus Christ The Shepherd Leaves Us Living In Sin Which Leads Us To Sure Destruction! 

There Is No Peace And, Therefore, No Rest! 

Our Choices Are Made For Self ... Self-Satisfaction, Self-Aggrandizement, Self-Service! And, No Mistake ... Those Poor Choices Lead To Poorer Actions Which Lead To Self-Deceived Self-Wrought Self-Destruction! 

Making This Personal, The Mentality Called "Do-You!" Did You In, And You Are Done And Dusted! But ...! 

... I Know This One, Sis. Shepherd! 

Go Ahead, Homer! 

The Good Shepherd Does Not Leave Any Of His Sheep In The Wilderness Of Sin For The Roaring Lion To Devour! 

His Sheep Know His Voice And, When He Calls Their Name, They Answer Him Even With What They Consider To Be Their Last Breath! 

If They're Too Weak To Walk, He Will Carry Them To His Known Green Pastures Beside Still Waters! 

The Good Shepherd, By His Sweet Spirit Known Holy, Restores Their Soul As In Puts Life, Real Life, True Life, The Holy Life, His Life, In Them Because He Is The Life-Giver! 

Thank You, Homer! 

Beloved, Do Not Disregard The Shepherd, Our Shepherd, Our Rest, Our Peace! 

Choose Not To Be Lost And Lonely And Filled With Fear For Your Future! 

Choose Not To Be A Wondering, Wandering Star Seeking A Sun! 

Choose To Be A Child Of The Sun Of Righteousness Who Has Your Healing In His Wings! 

Choose To Be Safe In His Arms, And Sin Will Not Have Dominion Over You! 

There Is Character In A Name! Please, By Grace Through Faith, Let Your Name Have The Character Of Jesus Christ In It! 

Peace! 

VESPERS AT THE END OF THE SABBATH: Buying Fruit Trees!?!

 Today, I Am Going To Talk About Buying Trees, And More Specifically, Fruit Trees! 

Bro. Bam, I Don't Have A Green Thumb So I Have Sworn Off Buying Fruit Trees, And Plants, And Flowers Because I Unfailingly Kill Them All! 

Well, My Friend, Asshur, You May Want To Listen In On This Session! 

Brethren, When We Go To Buy Fruit Trees, It Is Always With The Hope That What They Bear Is The Identical Thing To What You  Planted Aka Plum Tree: Plums ... Preferably Sweet; Tomato: Tomatoes; Mango: Mangoes ... Sweet And Juicy, And So On! 

Well, Let Me Tell You About Mortal ...! 

... What Kind Of Name Is That!?! 

It's The Name That His Parents Gave Him, So Back Up A Lot, Trundle! 

Well, Mortal Went To Eden's Garden Shop And He Bought A Half-Dozen Quick-Bearing Fruit Trees! 

Those Trees Already Looked Like They Were Pregnant To Him, So He Was Excited, And Then Some! He Even Started Singing A Lil' Ditty About Fruit In A Year, Then In Six Months, And Then In A Month! 

People Even Heard Him Muttering About How He Should Be Able To Get Fruit In A Week, And That He Would Get Fruit In A Week, Or Even A Day If He Made The Tree Himself! 

People Started Making Spirals Around Their Ears When They Finished Having A Conversation With Him! 

Well, One Day, Someone Who Had Grown Tired Of Mortal Disrespecting The Creator's Handiwork And Growing Process Asked Him What Kind Of Trees He Had Purchased! 

Puffed Up Like The Old Windbag That He Was, Mortal Arrogantly Said: "Choice! 

I Purchased Quick-Bearing Choice Trees!" 

I've Never Heard Of A Choice Tree, But I'm Willing To Taste The Fruit Of Your Harvest! 

Sorry, Foundit, That Fruit Is Already Spoken For, And It's All Mine! 

Okay, Mortal, Knock Yourself Out! I Can't Fight You For What's Yours! 

You Got That Right! Byeeee! 

Well, Long Story Real Short, The Day Of Harvest Came And Mortal Was Heard Screeching About Sabotage And A Boatload Of Other Rubbish Until Foundit Turned Up! 

Mortal, I Hear You Had A Fitting Harvest! 

What Do You Mean Fitting Harvest, Foundit!?! This Is A Disaster Of Gargantuan Proportions! I Don't Like The Fruit! 

I Don't Know Why, Mortal! You Said All The Fruit Was For You Alone! 

Yes, I Said That, Foundit, But I Don't Like It! 

Wow, Mortal, Astonishing! You Don't Like The Fruit Of Your Own Choice!?! Don't Make Me Laugh! 

Ain't This Just Like Life! You Made Your Decision, You Know, Your Choice! Your Consequence: You Know, Your Fruit To Eat ... AhhLone!!! 

How Do You Like Them Apples, Mortal Aka All For Me!?! 

Brethren, Mortal And His Fruit Trees Called Choice, Are A Metaphor For Life! 

You Pick Your Own Path With Or Against Good Advice, And You Enjoy, Or Don't, Your Chosen Journey! The Results, The Consequences ...! 

...  Stop Right There! Split The Word: Con Is "With" And Sequences Is "Steps" BUT The Problem Is That The Prefix "Con" In This Instance Is A Negative Hence We Have Negative Steps Aka Steps Down For Us ... Mortals! 

My Peoples, See That You Get Wisdom, And In All Your Getting, Get Understanding ...! 

...  To Use Knowledge The Right Way To Fill Your House, Your Rooms, With Pleasant And Precious Things! 

AMEN!!! 

Brethren, Learn From Your Mistakes And The Mistakes Of Others: Let The Good Lord Show You Which Fruit Trees To Cultivate To Bear Choice Fruit Fit For His Table! 

Peace! 

 

 

VESPERS AT THE END OF THE SABBATH: We Are Suggestible But ...!

Pasha, Do You Remember Playing That Game, "I'm Not Touching You!" When We Were Little!?! 

Dolly, That Was Not A Game! That Was An Annoyance, Torture, A Fret, A Switch Making You Itch To Lay Out Someone In A Ditch! 

Awwww, You Remembered! 

Who Could Forget!?! 

Why Do You Ask, Dolly!?! 

Satan Aka The At-A-Distance Cattle-Prod Bane Of Christian Life! 

You Must Mean The Not-Social Media Influencer Racking Up Subscribers And Views! 

Yup, That One! 

Dolly Dinks, That Damned Devil Can't Make Us Do Anything But, Oh, He And His Cohort Can Annoy Us Until We Act To Make Sure He And His Mess Misses Us, Or Encourages Us To Succumb To Suggestion And Make A Mess Of Our Lives, Forgetting Our Mission For And To The Master! 

Pasha, You Do Remember That There Is No Sin In Temptation, Don't You!?! 

Dolly, I Remember And Am Glad For And Blessed By It! All I Need To Do Is Pray And Aggressively Swat That Suggestion To Sin Down Hard With A "Thus Saith The Lord!" So That It Does Not Rear Its Ugly Head Again! If I Don't Do That, It Is Going To Get Closer And More And More Intrusive, And Annoying, Until I, Offended, Aggrieved, Wishing The Relief Of Peace, Choose Interaction, And Foolishly Loosen My Leash On Love! 

Lord, Forbid It! 

We Need To Be Sober, Vigilant, Against That Lion's Roaring! 

What He's Doing Is Common To Man, So By Almighty God's Grace, His Favor, His Blessings Upon Us, We Can Overcome! 

Indeed! 

We Must Deny The Liar And Reach For The Hand Of Hope That Brings Help And Healing! 

Mistakes Happen, But The Lord Has Given Us The Pen Of Truth AND The Eraser Of Sin That Is Sure Salvation! 

Let's Lean On The Love of God That Is The Light Of Love Which Is Plain! 

We Have The God Of Grace! 

Don't Forget The Prince of Peace! 

Dolly, I Have To Go! 

Don't Forget Your Appointment At The Secret Place Of The Most High! 

I Won't, Pasha! My Very Life Depends On It! 

AMEN!!! 

We Are Suggestible, But We Don't Have To Be Gullible, So Let's Not Give In To The Temptation To Touch! 

I Hear THAT, And I Will Trust In And Lean On My Jesus! 

AMEN, Again And Again! 

Peace! 

VESPERS AT THE END OF THE SABBATH: During The Between!?!

Yup, Yup! That's It! "During The Between!" I Like It!!! 

Perhaps, Maury, If You Told Us What "During The Between!" Means We Would Like It, Too! 

Oh, Sorry, Corrie, I Was Thinking Out Loud For A Moment But Since You Heard Me, Have You Considered The Events, Happenings, Occasions, The Goings-On That Occur In The Interval From One's Sunrise To One's Sunset To Give It A Suitable Appellation!?! 

Maury, Must You Always Be Such A High-Flyer!?! Couldn't You Just Have Asked Us To Give It A Name; And No, I Did Not! 

What About You, Dingus!?! 

Truth Be Told, I Saw Something That Is Going To Make Me Say Something That Will Challenge And Yet Align Perfectly With Your "During The Between!" ... If You Are Or Become A Christian!

 Father-Managed Natural Regeneration! 

Our Father In Heaven, Jesus Christ The Lord, Is To Manage Our Lives As We Follow Him Faithfully For Love During That Time Between Sunrise And Sunset! 

Hammie, I Like Where This Is Going! 

You Ain't Lying, Louie! 

Now, Brethren, Don't Miss This Point! 

Say On, Maury! 

Brethren, If We Are Faithful, Patient ... Enduring, The Obvious Outcome At The Appointed Hour That None But Our Father Knows, Is, Naturally, Regeneration ... By The Word Of His Mouth ... When He Calls His Saints To Rise Up To Meet Him In The Air On That Glad And Glorious Day That Is His Second Coming! 

Beloved, Doesn't That Dash Between Dates, That "During The Between!" Time Take On A Whole New Meaning Aka Acquire A Whole Different Gravitas!?! 

Couldn't Help Yourself, Could You, Maury!?! 

Nope, Norrie! 

Gravitas Somehow Seemed More Apropos, You Know, Fitting, Pertinent, For Such A Solemn Season! 

Maury, We Understand, And Yes, We Accept That It Is Fitting! 

You Know, We Should Be Thinking To Make Our Dash, Our "During The Between!" Our Moment By The Grace Of Our Heavenly Father, Truly Father-Managed So That, Naturally, We Will Experience The Regeneration, For We Will Have Been Sealed By The Holy Spirit Who Led Us Into All Truth For Our Faithfulness ... To The End! 

Live ... To Live Again! Let The Father Lead You Along! 

Dear Ones, It Is My Sincere Prayer For All Of Us That It Will Be Said Of All Of Us That "During The Between!" We Stood Up For Him Who Laid Down His Life For Us! 

AMEN!!! 

Peace! 

VESPERS AT THE END OF THE SABBATH: You Personally Matter To The Master!

 

I Matter! 

Of Course, You Matter, Marsha! 

I Matter To The One Who Matters! 

And Who, Pray Tell, Would That Be, Marsha Mann! 

Since You Gave Me My Name, Devory Manwaur, I, Marsha Mann, Matter To The Master! There Ain't Nobody Higher Nor Bigger Than He Is, And There Ain't Nobody To Overrule, Nor Undermine, Sidestep, Or Countermand His Commands, Nor Teach Him Knowledge, Nor To Correct His Errors Because He Doesn't Make Errors Because He Is Perfect! 

He Is The God Who Alone Is Wise! I Belong To Him: He Is My Lord And My King! 

I Can Touch The Hand Of God Because I'm In The Heart Of God! I Rest In God Because I Trust In God, And I Have Peace! You May Want To Check Him Out! 

Oh, And By The Way, If You Have A Problem With Me, Please Feel Totally Free To Take It Up With Him: You Will Need To Pray! 

Ooopsies, I Forgot! Praying Won't Work For You Because, Per You, "Praying Is Stupid And Is A Crutch For Weak-Minded People Who Are Afraid To Belly-Up To The Trough Of Life To Get And Take Their Portion Of The Feed For All!" 

Oh, My, Whatever Will Our Dear Manwaur Do! 

Manwaur, We All Get One Shot To Make A Good Impression: There Are No Second-Firsts! Take This Shot To Get Out Of "Hell's Kitchen!" 

Come Out, Manwaur! I Got Out! 

Jesus Christ Saves! 

Prayer Changes Things! Have A Conversation With The King, No Appointment Needed, No Security Buffering, No Nosy Assistants, No Clocks, No Leakers Of Your Past Misdeeds, No Judgment, No Suspicion, No Rejection! 

Look, Marsha, I've Never Heard About A God Who Doesn't Want, Doesn't Demand And Require Constant Gifts And Sacrifices From Its Adherents, Its Followers, To Gain And Retain Their Favor! Why Would Your Sky God Be Any Different!?! 

Mr. Manwaur, I Am Going To Rock Your World Right Now! 

The Sky God, As You Call Him, Is God Almighty, The For-Real God, Not An Impostor! He Lives Above The Sky And Is Holding It Up Even As He Walks With Us Under It! 

He Sacrificed His Life For Us To Give Us The Gift Of Access To Himself! He Daily Gives Us Gifts ... And Our Mercies Are Ever New! 

We May Storm His Throne-Room Whenever We Want, For Whatever Reason, Without Getting Ourselves Tackled, Or Being Left Without Body Heat! 

He Answers Our Hard Questions With Answers Easy To Grasp! Manwaur, He Comforts Me Because He Cares! I May Not Always Be Able To Feel His Presence But ...! 

... You're Kidding, Right!?! You Don't Feel God, You See God! 

My Poor Deluded Manwaur! Every Manufactured God Is A Fiction Of Satan The Damned, And They Are Fronts To Cause People To Worship Demons! 

My Jesus Speaks, Loves, Hears, Touches, Carries, Comforts, Walks, Prays For His People ... He Is Praying For Me! 

He Promised Never To Leave Me Nor Forsake Me, And That Is Why I Can Confidently Say That When I Can't Feel His Presence, I Can Trust His Heart: His Word Is The Truth: He Can't Lie: His Word Is Who He Is! 

Uh, Ummm, That Is Quite A Recommendation, And It Seems That I May Have Been Operating Under A Delusion, If You Will, Marsha! 

You Have, Manwaur, And It Is Time To Correct The Record! 

Dear Marsha, If You Will Walk With Me, I Sincerely Believe That I Will Do The Necessary! I Will Correct The Record! 

Hallelujah! Another Brand Plucked From The Fire! The Holy God Be Praised! 

AMEN!!! 

Peace! 

VESPERS AT THE END OF THE SABBATH: We Have No Help But HIM!!!

If You Have No Help But The Living God, Why Would You Treat Him Like Your Last Class "Friend" Called Convenience Good For The Assist At The Usual Place Known To All Living As The Tight Spot Between Pinch And Bind And In A Crunch!?! 

Since You Know Without A Doubt That He Has Never Failed You Not Even One Time, Because He Always Does What Is Best For You, Since He Is The Only Wise God And Can See Around The Bends In Your Life That Would Either Tie You Into Knots, Even A Gordian Knot, Or Break You Into Bits And Pieces Leaving You Dull In Mind And Sharp-Tongued With A Flaming Temper With No Self-Editing Feature, Why Would You Ignore His Kind Counsel And Guidance On His Pleasant Plans For Your Perfect Life In, For, And With Him!?! 

Brethren, Let Me Tell Us All Something Real Bright! 

The Always Available Goodie Train Called Daddy Lord Jesus Is Soon Going To Come To A Screeching Halt! 

Has He Been For You Conveniently Good For The Direly Needed "Solid" For A Bind, A Pinch, A Crunch, Or Is He, Has He, All Along Been Your Hope, Your Help, Your Hiding Place!?! 

Beloved, All Relationships, Just Like Motors, Must Be Lubricated! Rivers Dry Up Without In-Flows! Love Relationships Need Energy To Glow-Up! Friendships Dry Down And Out From A Lack Of Share! Relationships Fall Apart And Die Off Because Of "Give Me To Show Me That You Care!" 

This Is Not The Way That We Should Be Treating Our Maker, God, And Soon Returning King! 

We Serve The God Who First Loved Us And Shows Us Daily What He Has Done, Is Doing, And Will Do For Us! 

We Ought To Love Him For Love Alone! 

He Asks Us To Come To Him ... Voluntarily ... For Love ... To Enter His Forever Home! 

Dear Ones, Let's Not Be Bread And Fish Christians Wanting Only The Goodies But Not The Grind In The Dark Valleys Of Life, Expecting Him To Foot The Bills, Open The Doors, Lift The Weight, Carry The Water, Bake And Serve The Bread, Wash Our Feet And The Dishes, Carry The Conversation, Smooth The Rough Paths, Sail The Ship, Find The Port And Dock Alone, Pay The Fees, Ferry The Luggage, Find And Turn Down The Bed, Fluff The Pillow, And Always Ever Provide The Sweet! 

Ask Yourself The Boss Question: 

What's In This Boondoggle Of

"I Don't Want No Part Of This For Myself!"

That I Would Want For The Lord Jesus!?! 

If You Knew That Your Cherished Love Was Boldly, Brazenly, Publicly "Loving" You Like That, Would You Continue The Relationship ... Sooo Called!?! 

Brethren, I Am Seriously Looking At Myself! Shouldn't You!?! 

Our Lord Jesus Is Giving And Forgiving, Merciful And Gracious, And To His Living Word, Ever True! 

Let Us With Joyful Hearts, Praise The Lord Because We Truly Know That He Is Kind, And Then Bid Him With Broken And Contrite Hearts To Help Us Get Off The Path Of Sure Destruction And On To The Path Of His Perfection!

Please Let Us Reach For His Hand Of Help Which Brings Hope And Healing, And His Glorious Heaven Ever Near! 

Let's Ask Him For The Purge, The Clean Out, And The Renew! 

He, God, Is Waiting On You, And Me, Too! 

All Now, He Is Sprinkling Upon Us Unasked Blessings Numbered Not A Few! Please, I Beseech Us All, To Him Be True! 

Peace! 

 

VESPERS AT THE END OF THE SABBATH: Building What!?!

I Didn't Believe You'd Do It, But You Really, Really, Did It! You've Built Yourself A Life Of Luxury On A Foundation Of Freedom To Choose With The Bricks Of Sin! 

And You've Got The Latest Windows Of Transgression! And I Can't Help But See That That Ornate Door You Purchased Is The Most Expensive One From Darke Lorde's Best-Selling Line! And That Roof Is Unmistakable For Being From His Gaudy Pride And Presumption Line! 

Now Tell Me, Uhgottit, What Could Possibly Go Wrong!?! 

Wrong, Schmong! This Is The Life For Me! 

Uhgottit, I Hope You Know That Sweet Life Don't-Can't Surely-Won't Last! 

Phliright, My Friend, This Life Doesn't Last So If Sweet Life Doesn't Last, It Ain't No Biggie! 

Wow, Uhgottit, Just Wow! Don't You Believe That There's A Judgment Coming ... And A Better Life!?! 

Look, Phliright, I Don't Have A Tomorrow Put Down! I Have A Today And A Now, Not A Someday Compliments Of A Judge! 

Man-Judges Are Corrupt, So Your Unseen Judge May Be, Could Be, Is Very Likely, Is Indeed Corrupt, Too! 

I Pity You, Uhgottit! Your Mum And Your Grand-'other Taught You The Way To Eternal Life Which Comes Through The Savior Who Is The Judge Of All Flesh, So Why Would You Choose Darke Lorde's Luscious Life Of Lawlessness As Your Hill To Die On!?! 

It's Simple, Phliright! It's Available, And It's Convenient, And I Like It! 

Ahhh, The ACL! You Do Know That In Full-Contact Sports That An Untreated Torn ACL Could End Your Days In The Game!?! 

Whatever! Live Fast, Play Hard, Take Your Lumps, Game Over: I'll Have Enjoyed The Ride While It Lasted So Who Cares!?! 

So Said The Man Who Watched The Death And Burial Of His Dreams While Singing "I Did It My Way!" While Crying And Asking "Why Me!?!" 

Phliright, You Tire Me! Please Go And Preach Your Bilge-Water To Someone Who Gives A ...!  

... Uh, Uh, Uhgottit! 

Okay, Someone Who Wants An Every Moment Of Life Traffic Director! 

Sounds Good To Me! 

Sounds Like Hell To Me, Phliright! That's Where You'll End Up If You Don't Get Rid Of This Glass House Abomination Resplendently Standing On Quick-Sand! 

Phliright, Please Make Your Presence Absent From My Domiciliary Edifice And Don't Ever Darken My Door Again! And If You See Me On The Street, Resist The Urge To Be A Samaritan! You Are Dead To Me! 

That's Alright, Uhgottit, But You Can't Stop Me From Praying For You! 

Don't Waste Your Time Praying For Me, Phliright! Pray For Yourself! 

I Will Use My Time Doing What The Lord Commands, Uhgottit! I Will Bombard Heaven For You Until The Lord Tells Me "Leave Uhgottit Alone With His Idols!" 

Suit Yourself! 

NARRATOR: 

Well, Brethren, Many People Prayed Unstintingly For Uhgottit! His Mum Passed On Pleading At The Throne Of Grace For Uhgottit To No Apparent Avail But There Was Good News For His Grand'other! 

One Day, Exactly Seven Years, Nine Months And Twenty-Six Days After Their Acrimonious Encounter, Phliright Was On High Street When He Heard A Familiar Voice Calling Him Bro. Phliright In An Unfamiliar Familiar Knowing Tone! 

And, Lo And Behold, There In The Flesh Was Uhgottit Looking ... Healthy, Humble And ... Held-Up! 

To Hear Phliright Tell It, Uhgottit Said He Had Real Fun Times Before He Went Through The Horn-Pipe Before A Miraculous Carve-Out Appeared And Ejected Him Just As He Was About To Make Hell-Self His Future House! 

He Said That He Had Been Tired Of The Life But Was Just Going Through The Motions Even As He Kept Hearing The Words: "Come Unto Me And Rest!" 

He Said That He Who Had Never Found A Feeling He Didn't Enjoy Suddenly Couldn't Shake The Feeling That He Was Between Times, Between Doors, At A Cross-Roads, At A Point Of No Return, And It Shook Him To His Core! 

He Remembered Phliright's Promise To Pray For Him No Matter What, And His Mum And His Grand'other Teaching Him The Good Way And Praying Over Him, And It Broke Him! 

He Remembered His Mum's Last Words To Him: "Uhgottit, My Favorite Only Child, You Ain't Got Nothing If You Ain't Got The Lord Jesus! Please Choose Jesus And Walk Right In The Light Of Life! Fun Fades But Jesus Lasts Forever! I'll See You In The Kingdom!" 

His Mum Plainly Told Him That She Would See Him In The Kingdom Without A Doubt! 

Uhgottit Said He Fought The Lord Like He Owed Him Money But The Lord Overcame Him And, In Humility, Accepting Truth, Glad For The Numerous Prayers For His Salvation Over The Years, He Surrendered To Our Savior With No Regrets! 

Is God Great!?! 

Yes, He Is! Hallelujah!!! 

Sin Didn't Win! Thank You, Jesus! 

Heaven's Gate Will Open And Uhgottit Will, By Right, Walk In! 

The Lord Be Ever Praised!!! 

AMEN!!! AMEN!!! AMEN!!! 

Peace! 

 

VESPERS AT THE END OF THE SABBATH: Mimicking Or Mirroring The Master!?!

 

Be Like Jesus! Love One Another! When The Character Of Christ Is Perfected In Us, Jesus Will Come To Claim Us Who Are His Own! 

Does That Mean That We Will Look Like Jesus Or Act Like Jesus Or Both!?! How Can I Know!?! 

Are We To Mimick The Lord!?! Anybody Got A Mirror! 

Funny You Mention Mimick AND Mirror, Macy-May! 

Ain't Nothing Funny About That, Gracy-Faye! Whenever, Wherever There Is Anything Spoken Or Done Or To Be Done For Or In The Name Of Our Jesus, It Is Guaranteed That There Will Be Mimics And Mirrors On The Back-Hand Side Because Of That Side-Winder, Satan The Damned! 

True That! Our Jesus Is Perfect, And He Says, "Be Ye Perfect Even As Your Father In Heaven Is Perfect!" 

And What Do We Often See On Show!?! 

Yes, Dingus!?! 

That's An Easy Answer, Macy-May! We See Parodies Parading Prominently! We See Mincing Mimicks And ...! 

... We See Mirror Madness! 

What's This Mirror Madness, Milo!?! Ahhh, Mirror Madness! That, My Friends, Is One Of Beelzebub's Baleful Bests ... With A Branch! 

Do Share, Mon Frere! 

When We View The Lord, What We See Is What We Receive! When We Faithfully Follow The Lamb, There Ain't No Goat Parts Passing, People! 

Very True! 

So What If I Tell You That Beelzebub The Bold And Brazen Displays A True Mirror Of Our Beautiful Savior On A Branch Of A Goodly Tree!!?! 

Just As You Reach The Branch Of A Tree Before You May Touch The Tree, The Source Of Its Life, We See Satan's "Good" Mirror On The Extended Branch Of His Goodly Tree, And We Stand Still, Looking Real Fine, And Preen, Pose, And Present Our Position When, Suddenly, The Branch Is The Tree And The Tree Is The Mirror Is Become A House Of Mirrors ... Circus Mirrors! 

Merciful Powers! 

Good Call, Calley! 

I Remember Those Circus Mirrors From My Ill-Spent Youth! Those Things Would Give A Person Nightmares After Making You Want To Upchuck Your Fairground Eats! 

That Sounds Positively Vile ... Evil! 

There! You Said It, Cravitz! Bait And Switch! Exchange Gold To Get Pyrite! Throw Away Beauty And Glow-Up With ... Ashes!?! 

Brethren, This Is Where The Rubber Meets The Road! In The Compromise With Sin, The Caricature Becomes The Keeper, The Kept, And, Ultimately, When Christ Comes, The Cast Off, The Cast Out! 

Wow! Do I Hear Upcoming Wailing And Gnashing Of Teeth!?! 

You Better Believe It! Jesus Is Right, Light, Pure, Perfect, No Derivatives, No Shadows, No Mirrors! 

We Are Not To Be Merchandise, To Be Manipulated, Packaged, Branded, Sold Out! 

We Are Bought With A Price Not Known To Be Silver Or Gold! 

We Walk In Light, In Love, By Faith, Through Grace, In Truth! 

Brethren, Those Are Real, Bold, Plain Statements Of Fact, No Wavering, No Waffling, No Buffering, No Sick-Inducing Parodies! Jesus Saves Souls From Sin! 

These Parodies, These Mimicks, Encourage People To, With Comfort, Play In And With Sin ...  To Conform To The Classes Of This World ... And Not To Be Transformed By The Renewing Of Their Minds Through Christ Who Strengthens Them! 

Do You Know What's The Difference Between The Mirror Of The Word Of God And Satan's Circus Mirror!?! 

Yes, Calley! 

The Mirror Of The Lord's Word Will Only Show You What's Wrong Whilst Satan's Shining Sifter Shimmeringly Shifts Us Through The Stages Of The Changes Of A Life That Blasts Us And Benefits Him! 

Wow, Calley! Color Me Surprised! Not! He's The Father Of Lies, Ain't He!?! 

Look, Let's Just Settle This! Give Me Jesus Because With Him, I'll Rise!

AMEN!!! 

Brethren, Constant Effort Must Be Put Forth If We Are To Stay True To Truth In The Light Of Life! 

As We Started, Let Us End: Be Like Jesus! Let It Be Your Song ... Your Reasonable Service! 

AMEN!!! 

Peace!

 

 

Satan Is A Teacher, Too!?!

 

... Humans Learn More From Trouble! You're Not Going To Like What I'm About To Say, But Nevertheless, I'm Still Going To Say It: I Have Learned, I Have Been Taught, Some Unintended And Valuable Lessons ... By Satan! 

Shut Your Mouth, Elowen! 

Why, Cloveen!?! For Speaking The Truth!?! Don't You Know That Even Liars Must Tell The Truth At Some Point In Time!?! Don't You Know That Even Those Who Would Destroy You Teach You Great Lessons ... If You Are Willing To Learn Them!?! 

So What Are These "Great" Lessons And "Truths" That The Piercing Serpent, The Roaring Lion, The Lord Of Dung, The Adversary Of Souls Has Taught You, Elowen!?! 

I'm Glad You Asked, Shari! The Lord's Enemy, Our Enemy, The Adversary Of Our Purchased Souls, Satan The Damned, Has Plainly, Efficiently, And Effectively Taught Me That Covetousness, Envy, Greed, Deceit, Lying, Malice, Narcissism, Obsession, And Self-Worship, Self-Absorption, Have No Place In The Life Of An Ambassador, A Soldier, For Christ! 

He Has Also Taught Me About Keeping My Eye On The Prize, On "Playing" The Long Game, On Devotion To Duty, On Commitment To The Cause That I Wholeheartedly Believe In! 

You Can't Be Serious, Elowen! 

Yes, I Am, Caprice! That Wretch Satan Has Unintentionally, I Am Sure, Taught Me That No Matter The Setbacks, No Matter The Failures, I Must Press On To My Goal With Single-Minded Focus! 

I Am Not Hearing This, Elowen! 

You Better Listen, Caprice! Let Me Ask You This, Then: Isn't It Possible To Learn Something Positive And Preserving From A Negative And Destructive Element And Occurrence!?! 

Of Course, We Can! 

So Why Can't We Learn From Satan's Antics!?! 

Ah, Umm, Well ... It Is ... Well ...! ... How Deep!?! 

Friends, The Lord Said That With Getting Wisdom, We Should Also Get Understanding! Understanding Demands That We Learn Two Great Truths: 

First, That What The Lord Means For Good And For Our Salvation, Satan Will Pervert For Evil And For Our Destruction! 

Secondly, The Lord Plainly Teaches Us What To Do For Abundant Life, Good Health, And Spiritual Elevation, While Satan Teaches Us ... Under Camouflage ... How To Destroy Ourselves With Our Own Thoughts, Words, And Deeds Via Self-Glorification, And Self-Aggrandizement! 

Through Truth, The Lord Teaches Us How To Get Into The Living Kingdom! 

Via Deceit, Satan Teaches Us How To Be Excluded From The Glorious Kingdom: He Is The Exemplar For Those Who Choose To Reject Christ's Free To All Salvation! 

But, Most Importantly, The Best Lesson That Satan Has Taught Me Is That The Word Of The Living God Is True, And To Stick To, To Stand Up For, To Choose To Be Sanctified By The Savior, And To Faithfully Wait With Patient Endurance To Be Sealed At The Appointed Hour By The Holy Spirit Who Leads Into All Truth, And To Not Create My Own "Heaven" By Known Feigned Aka False Wisdom! 

Sin Slays! 

Salvation Serves And Seals, And By These I Know That I Cannot Lose With Our Lord Jesus! 

Elowen, Dear Heart, I Like How Your Mind Works: You Just Taught Me A Thing! Bless The Lord! 

Peace! 

VESPERS AT THE END OF THE SABBATH: A Life "Blessed" With No Stress!?!

 

Come, My Precious Ones! Come! 

Uh, Oh, Paredo!

Uh, Hmm, Joe! 

What Do You Think, Fanci!?! Philosophy Or Society!?! 

Neither One! Sis. Bringone Has Been Muttering About Somebody Called Grace And Kissing And Falling Down In The Street And "Them," Whoever They Are, Not Loving Truth! 

Are You Sure About That, Fanci!?! That Surely Sounds Like Gossip And You Well Know That Sis. Bringone Does Not Indulge Gossip Nor Embrace Gossipers! 

Yes, Both Times, Paredo And Joe, But ...! 

Blessings, Beloved! The Lord Is Good To Us, But We Are Not Good To Ourselves Or Each Other! Stop Saying That You're Too Blessed To Be Stressed! 

SIS. BRINGONE!!! That's Practically Heresy! With All Due Respect, Bite Your Tongue! 

Sorry, Cephas, No Can Do! I Have Need Of It Since We Are Going To Do A Bible Rear-View! We Are Going Into The Way-Back Machine! 

Let's Talk Creation! 

Theme: No Stress!?!

Earth: Formless, Void, Darkness Abounded! 

Then Came: Shape, Fill, Light! Who, How!?! 

Clay And Air: Adam! 

Why, How!?! 

A Rib: Eve! 

When, Why, How!?! 

Tower By Nimrod: Language Explosion! 

Where, Why, How!?! 

Noah: 120-Year Sermon And A Cruise Liner/Ark! 

Why, How, What For!?! 

Moses: Split Sea, Dry Ground, Dry Shod Feet! 

You Know The Drill!

What We Have Here, People, Is It A Conundrum, An Enigma, A Mystery OR ...!?! 

Sis. Bringone, What We Have Here Is Commonsense Compliments Of The Only Wise God! Pressure Aka A Stressor, Was Applied And The Promise, A Present, A Presence Was Supplied! What Was, What Is, Shall Be Until The Lord Comes For Us Who Work Out Our Own Salvation With Godly Fear And Trembling! 

Well Said, Alma! 

To Close This "No Stress, Too Blessed To Be Stressed" Nonsense Down For Good, Look Upon Our Lord Jesus In The Garden Of Gethsemane Praying To His Father ...! 

... And Sweating Great Drops Of Blood ... For Us! 

Yes, Royal, For Us! Wasn't That Stress!?! 

Yes, Sis. Bringone! 

Dear Ones, Please Stop Subscribing To And Sponsoring The Nebulous Aka Hazy, Vague, Confused Popular Religion! It Is All Fronts: No Foundation Stone, No Backbone, No Capstone! 

Now, To Beautify Our Precious Time Together, I Ask You To Think Of Those Drops Of Jesus' Blood: What Caused Them, Where They Led, What They Cost Him, What They Purchased, And What We Have Been Gifted And Blessed With As A Result! 

I Have Six Words: 

Six Is The Number For Man! 

The Six Words Point To Word Seven: 

Seven Is God's Number, The Number Of Perfection! 

Six Can Get To Seven Who, For Us, Will Never Be Late! 

Enjoy Your Life In Love With Your Gift Of Access To The Throne Of Grace Even Though Truth Was  Cast Down To The Ground As Stated In Daniel Chapter 8 Verse 12! 

Jesus Christ, God, Gives Us Life, Light, And Is Our Only Peace In This Vale Of Tears! He Has Sent His Holy Spirit To Be With Us Forever To Be Our Comfort, Our Comforter! 

The Holy Spirit, God, With Our Free-Will Cooperation And Desire To Abide Under The Shadow Of The Almighty Through Our Freedom To Choose Our Own Way To Live, Imbues Us With His Power To Live Lives Of Purity! 

Beloved, Be Wise! You Don't Need Light, Comfort, Peace, And Power, To Live In Purity If There Is NO Stress To Do And Be Otherwise! 

Sis. Bringone, I, For One, Am Glad That Righteousness And Peace Kissed Each Other! Without Them, The Comforter Would Not Have Come To Lead Us Into All Truth! 

I Told You, Fanci! Sis. Bringone Does Not Do Gossip! 

Thank You, Jesus! 

Suddenly, I Feel Great! 

Hallelujah, Jesus! 

AMEN!!! 

Peace!
