VESPERS AT THE END OF THE SABBATH: SATISFACTION IN SIN: Balaam Beor

Balaam Beor
Was A Fraud
AND
A Prophet
For Whom Satisfaction Came
Only From Profit!

Balaam

Son Of Beor
Beat His Faithful Ass
Until The Lord Gave It A Voice
Which Caused
The Profit-Driven Prophet
To Answer It
As Though It Were Human!

He Didn't Have A Choice!

Balaam
Knew God's Truth
BUT
Being Of Deceitful Ilk
Petitioned The Eternal
- Not In Innocence -
To See If God
Would Think As He Thought
So That He Could Get His Grubby Hands
On King Balak's Coinage
That Would

In His Loving Hands
- By His Ecstatic Rejoicing -
Gloriously Clink!

Balaam Sold Out His Soul To The Devil
Because
Greed
In His Soul's Armor
Was A Really, Really
Really Big Chink!

It Was A Big Hole!

So Big Was That Hole
That A Whole Satan
Walked Comfortably Through
Never Touching The Edges
So That Balaam Thought
- Wrongly -
That
He Was Doing His Own Do
Never Realizing
- I Conjecture -
That Practice
Wears A Nun Robe
AND
Did Not Recognize
That Against The Living God
He Had Become
A Raw Sinner
Another Adversary
- Pretend Friendly -
AND
Studiedly Bold!

A Little Sin
- Cherished -
Becomes
A Lot Of Sin
- Relished -
AND
You Can't Control It
For
It
- Triumphing -
Controls You!

Your Life Becomes Hellish!

The Story Of Balaam
Is
A Cautionary Tale
A Tale With A Tail
That Does Constant Flail
At This Time Of The End
When Men's Hearts Do Wax Cold
Where Love For The Other
Is Something To Be Sold
When Profiteering Is Laudable
Where Faith In God Is Laughable
Where Truth Has No Beauty
AND
Love For The Living God Is A Nasty Cootee!

I Ask You, Brethren
To Sincerely Search Self
For The Chink In Your Character
For That Lesson In Your Book Of Life
For Which You Always Score An "F"
Because
That Is The Lesson
Which Will Continue To Be Your Test
Ever Getting Harder As It Pertains To Jesus Christ
AND
Ever Easier As It Pertains
To The Base Perpetrator Of Wickedness And Vice!

Think On This ... Carefully:

Just As An Innocent Oyster
Is Impregnated
In Under A Minute
- So As Not To Immediately Kill It -
With A Grain Of Sand
To Make It Produce A Precious Pearl
So, Too, Are We ... But In An Instant!

The Difference 

Is Who Is Doing The Impregnating
AND
For What Purpose
AND
Do We With It Agree!

Oysters Have No Say
In Their Impregnation
AND
They Also Have No Say
In What Color Pearl
What Size Pearl
What Iridescence
It Shall Produce
BUT
We Do!

Balaam Beor
Was Known
To Be A Prophet Of God
Known To Work Enchantments
Known To Utter Curses
Knew The Ways Of God
Had Great Light From God
BUT
Willfully
Wickedly
Knowingly
Treacherously
Greedily
Disobediently
Used It All
For The Glory Of Satan
The Base Fraud!

Satan Is A Thief
A State-Line Robber
A Murderer
Who Impregnates
To Kill Twice
BUT
Jesus Christ
By His Holy Spirit
Indwells
To Give Us
Abundant Life Now
AND
Eternal Life Later!

What Is In Your Soul?
Is It The Light Of Life
The Glow Of Heaven
ORIs It The Seed Of The Serpent
The Bloat Of Corrupting Leaven?!

When You Know WHAT In You Grows
You Will Know WHO Causes It To Grow!

What Are You Raising
For Your Harvest?!

Balaam Son Of Beor
Got The Sword Of Damnation
In His Chest
Because
Those Who Willfully Cause Others To Sin
Get The Same Punishment
As Those Committing The Sin!

Think, Dear Ones
On These Things
AND
Convicted
AND
Convinced
Let Jesus Christ
Of Your Whole Life
Be
The Crowned And Reigning
Laboring King And Captain
To Direct Your Life
AND
Fight
All Your Battles
Against The Adversary Of Souls
Who Cherishes The Night!

Look Unto Jesus The Christ
AND
Keep Heaven
In Your Eye Sight
For
Night Comes
AND, THEN

The Getting Up Morning!
Judgement Morning!
