HARD THINGS BREAK: Stubbornness Is Like Idolatry!

 

Today Is The Day 

To Give Solid Thought To Destroying 

Our Stubborn Will 

And 

Giving Our All, Body, Mind, And Spirit 

To Our Lord Jesus Christ! 

Beloved, 

If You Were A Stubborn Child

Or Had, Or Presently Have A Stubborn Child In Your Household

You Would Know That This Blessed Child Would Rather Die 

Before They Would Accept Or Acknowledge Defeat 

For Any Reason! 

They Do Not Fear Parent Or Any Adult Authority Figure

And 

Have Boldly, Proudly, Chosen Death With The Foolish  

Than To Humbly Accept The Living Wisdom Of The Wise-Alive! 

Dear Ones, 

Be Not Proud Like Lucifer-Satan! 

Godly Fear Is A Criterion For All 

Who Will Stand Without Shame Or Terror

In The Presence Of Our Jehovah God! 

We Must Come To The Knowledge That 

It Is Better To Suck Salt With Our Savior 

And

Be Eternally Blessed

Than To Sup Deada Aka Eat Unclean Meat 

With The Boldly Wicked

Those Who Walk Wise In Their Own Blind Eyes! 

Stubbornness Can Be Equated With Idolatry 

Because 

One Is Saying That They Only Answer To Themselves

Hence ... They Are A False God! 

Brethren Beloved,

We Did Not Create Ourselves

Cannot Keep Ourselves Alive

Or Provide Food For Ourselves 

... And ... 

It Is Ordained That 

We Each Must Give Account To Our King Jesus

Almighty God

The Judge Of All Flesh

For Everything That We Do In Our Flesh! 

Almighty God Doesn't Answer To Anyone

Nor Will He Share His Glory With Another! 

Remember That The Humble Bow Now 

And 

The Stubbornly Proud Will Burn Then

In The Day Appointed! 

Hard Things Break 

So Let's Not Be Wrong And Strong 

To Save Face With The Crowd! 

Please Walk Wise With The Meek: 

Fear God! 

Peace!

HAPPY SABBATH + At The Border Of Change!

Walking To The Border Of Change In The Valley Of Decision 

Is Not 

A Journey For The Self-Sufficient 

Or For Those Who Know Not How To Be Humble, Meek! 

Living Wisdom Says: 

He Who Knows Not

And

Knows Not He Knows Not

He Is Fool: 

Shun Him!

He Who Knows Not

And

Knows He Knows Not

He Is A Child: 

Teach Him!

 

He Who Knows

And

Knows He Knows

He Is A Wise Man: 

Follow Him! 

Our God Eternal Is All-Knowing

So Let Us, As Believers, Adopt The Persona Of A Child 

And

Permit Our Father To Teach Us All That We Need To Know 

So That We Will Have The Sense 

To Follow His Leading At The Border Of Change 

So That We Will Cross The Valley Of Decision Safely 

And 

Reach The Promised Land Unscathed! 

Beloved, 

A Self-Sufficient Person 

Will Never Court Humility Or Meekness 

In Order To Ask For Much Needed Help! 

Since We Are Warned Against 

Leaning On Our Own Understanding

And 

Doubting That The Lord Himself Is Able To Help Us

It Stands To Reason That Anyone Smelling Of Self 

Will Have No Need Of The Savior! 

Please Don't Fall Into Satan's Well-Set Trap Of Pride! 

We Need The Lord Jesus Christ

And

We Need To Be Rid Of 

The Deadly Influence Of Satan, King Fraud! 

Meekness And Gentleness

- The Opposite Of Pride -

Were Good Enough For Our Dear Jesus 

In His Earthy Sojourn

So They Must Be Good Enough For Us! 

Please Exercise Your Daily Gift Of Faith For The Day

Or You Will Not The Great Gates Of Pearl Enter In! 

Change Must Come: 

Dump Self 

And 

Dump Sin For The Eternal Win! 

Be Your Heavenly Father's Well-Beloved

Obedient, Trusting, Child! 

Peace!

SEXUAL SIN: Superfluous Naughtiness!?!

There Is Nothing Cute About Naughtiness 

Since It Is Attached To Filthiness

Uncleanness

And 

Lewdness 

Which All Refer To Sexual Sin! 

Sexual Sin 

Is 

Always Against Your Self! 

Anything That Is Superfluous 

Is 

Unnecessary

Does Not Serve Any Good Purpose 

And

Should Be Avoided At All Costs! 

Sad To Say ...

In These Times In Which We Live

Naughty Is Nice

Superfluous Is A Necessity 

And

Filthiness Is De Rigueur Aka Fashionable! 

Beloved, 

We Have At Our Fingertips 

The Sure Word Of Almighty God Known Able To Save Us 

If And When

It Is Engrafted Aka Cut Into

- Made A Part Of Our Lives -

To Make Us Sweeter, Stronger

And

Act And Live Better

To Profit Us Eternally! 

You Are Not Alone ...

We Are Encouraged To Meekly Seek The Eternal God 

By Righteousness Aka Right-Doing

Inner Humility ... Not The Public Kind For Praise

And

Patience! 

What You Put In

Is

What You Get Out!

Let's Permit Patience To Do Her Perfect Work In Us 

To Thoroughly Prepare Us 

To Meet Our Lord, God And King

The Final Judge Of All Flesh! 

Be Wise ...

No One Can Force You To Be Naughty 

And

No One Can Force You To  Be Nice! 

We Are Free-Will Agents 

With Freedom To Choose To Do Right ... Or Not! 

We Who Choose To Be Free In Jesus Christ 

Will ... By Saving Grace

Separate Ourselves From Sexual Sin 

Even If We Are Called Prudes And Killjoys! 

Jesus Christ Paid For Our Peace:

Don't Squander It!

HAPPY SABBATH + OASIS IN LIFE FOR LIFE: Of Good ... And For Blessings!

Our Oasis 
Is 
Notable For Always Having Fresh, Clean, Sweet Water

And

Sure And Ample Shade

To Comfort The Soul Of The Traveller

To Give His Strength To Prevail ... To Plod On

On The Road To Victory Over Sin, Self, Satan, Hell

Death And The Cold Grave

Giving The Shout Of Triumph

Thanking God Almighty

In The Person Of Jesus Christ The Righteous

Who, Alone

Has The Power To Succour All Of Us!

The Good Book That Tells Of Christ Jesus

The Word Of Truth

The Word Of God

The Pardoner Holy Just And True

Is

Our Oasis In Life's Desert Of Sin

Calling Us To Soul Salvation

Giving Us Ample Reason

To Our Purchased Victory To March On!
Let Us Be Faithful!
Let Us Not To The Adversary Give In! 

Now Hear The Word Of The Lord
To Me, To You:

Brethren,

We Will Never Arrive At The Heavenly Home
Under Our Own Steam
And
Like It Or Not ... To Get There Safely
We, All, Must Make Some Hard Acknowledgements: 

• I'm A Sinner 
• I Must Ignore Temporal Glory
• I Must Turn Away From The Scenes Of Life That Humbled Me To Shame
• I Must Be Of A Meek And Gentle Spirit
• I Must Walk In The Footsteps Of My King In The Way That He, Personally, Has Marked For My Feet

The Lord Can Teach A Meek Soul 
And
He Can Save The Acknowledged Sinner
But

The Lord Can Do Nothing For The Person Whose Lust For 
Temporal Aka Earthly Glory 

Is 

More Than His Love For His Lord 

And 

His Desire To Be Eternally Saved

Nor For The Person Who Believes That His Sin ... His Shame

Is 

Bigger Than The Lord's Capacity To Forgive 

And

To Cleanse! 

Beloved, 

Everything That We Do Involves Thought ... Decision-Making

And

We Must Decide To Believe That The Word Of God Is True

And

That As Repentant Sinners Aka Sinners Saved

The Lord God Of Grace For Us Now

And

Glory For Us To Come

Will Guard, Guide, Lead, Feed, Chide Aka Correct

Abide With Us

Deliver Us From Sin And Death

And 

Physically Reclaim Us On The Great Day! 

The Word Of God
Is 
The Transcript Of God's Character!
The Word Of God Is Living
And By It 
We Know That We Have Eternal Life!

Read The Living, Holy, Word

And

Remind Yourself ... Daily

That You Have A Future

And

An Expected End -

The Gift Of The Eternal God!

The Word Of God, Again, Is Our Oasis!
This Oasis Means Life To Us Who Are In The Desert ... Of Sin!
Please Consider ... Carefully ... This Fact:

An Oasis ... A Known Blessing To Travellers
Is 
Profitable To The Man Who Finds It
And
Greedily, Gratefully, Avails Himself Of Its Benefits!

The Man Who Blithely Walks Past
The Only Oasis In The Desert
While Declaring That Such A Way-Station
Is 
For Weaklings And Cowards
Will Slowly Die A Painful Death
When His Bravado And His Earthly Supplies Are Depleted
And
There Is No Other Known Stop For Body And Soul Refreshing!

Make The Decision ...

We Thoughtfully Don't Leave Home Without "Our" Cell Phone! 

How About Let Us Thoughtfully Decide 
Not To Leave Home Without "Our" Lord

- Who Is Infinitely More Profitable - 

In Our Hearts!?! 
The Living Word Works Full-Time!

Remember ...

All Good And Perfect Gifts ... Blessings
Come From "Our" Lord Christ
In Whom Is "Our" Life!
Accept The Blessed Provisions From The Hand Of Our Lord
And
Live!

FRUIT OF THE SPIRIT: The Meek And Gentle Spirit!

They Love To Say That They Have Talents
Capital "T" And "S" At The End
So There Is No Need For Them To Be Meek
And That They Do Not To Others
- In Humility -
Have To Bend!

Big Whoo Hoo!!

Well, I've Got Jesus!
Creator At The Beginning
Savior In The Middle

And 
Redeemer At The End!
My Soul Against Damnation
He Defends!

They Would Do Well 
To Look At Mary The Mother Of Jesus
Elizabeth The Mother Of John The Baptist

Sarah The Mother Of Isaac And The Shunamite Woman!

Look At The Woman At The Well! 

Look At Hannah, Prophet Samuel's Mum
And, Then Look Around You And Look At Us
And See The Arrogance, The Pride
The Willful Waywardness
The Desire For The Preeminence
The Desire To Rule
The Constant Butting Of Heads
Because
No One Wants To Be Second
No One Want To Follow
No One Wants To Serve
Because
They Just Want To Be Seen
And
To Do That Properly
They Are Creating Havok
Amongst The People Of God
And
Retarding The Work Of The Lord Christ!

Instead Of Blessing With Faithful Service
They Are Doing The Benighting Work Of Satan, The Liar
The Wannabe God!

We, As Committed, Christian, Women 
Need To Learn To Be Meek!

Men, Too!

We, As Committed, Christian, Women Need
The Savior's Will Daily To Seek! 

Men, Too!

We Need To Stop, Think 
And 
Turn Away From Folly
And
Once And For All Times Learn That
Competition Causes Compromise

That A Broken Tailbone Always Results
From The Prideful Fall
That The Higher A Monkey Climbs
The More His Unmentionables Are Exposed
That Disdain For The Simple
Always Causes One To Neglect The Prayer Phone
That What Sweetens The Goat's Mouth Often Burns Him In The Tail
That Being Humble Is Not Fatal
And
That Being Meek Doesn't Mean One Is A Failure!

We Need To Remember That The Master Was Meek
And
We Need To Constantly Remember His Whole Character
The Methods He Used
The Means
The Walk
The Wisdom
The Watching Unto Prayer
The Desire To Please His Father
And
His Ready Willingness
The Good News To All Hearers
Compassionately, Lovingly, To Share
And
Without Fear!

Our Gentle Jesus ... The Man Of Sorrow
Lord Of Earth And Sky And Sea
Willing Servant
Willing Sacrifice Pure And Clean
Served With Kingdom Purpose
And
Not To Be Seen!

The Lord Lived What He Taught:
Humility With Love
Sharing With Hope
Blessing With Promise
Untainted By Time
Untempted By Tests
Unbothered By Base Courseness
Willing To Uplift The Faceless
The Tasteless, The Tawdry
The Profaned
Willing To Bless Bountifully
The Blind, The Halt, The Lame
Willing To Cleanse The Careless
The Clueless, The Foolish
And
Always With A Kind Heart
A Pure Heart
A Firm Voice
To Lay Out Truth Unpopular 
To The Puffed Up, Prideful, Self-Aggrandized
But
So Very Needed And Necessary
For Those Who Have Seeking Hearts
Searching Eyes
Attuned-To-Truth Ears
To Uplift Them
To Save Them
And
Against The Great Day Of Small Things
Impregnably Seal!

Unrepentant Sinners Shall Be Seared!

The Hand That Rocks The Cradle
Rules The World
For Good
For Ill
For Blessing
For Blight
For The Delight Of Satan
Or
For The Delight Of The Glorious One
Who Will Give To His Meek Ones
- On The Day Appointed -
The Earth Made New
And
Eternal Life!

Brethren,

I Am Sure Of Only One Thing:
It Is Time For Us To Change Into Gospel Shoes!

Being Meek Doesn't Mean
Being  A Door Mat
Nor A Mattress!
It Means Having The Character Of Christ
The Heart Of The Living, Holy God
Ever To Delight!

Being Meek Requires Faith's Pure Eyesight 
Which Gives Foresight
Which Negates The Need For Hindsight! 

Christ's Oversight Causes Us To Have Insight
Obviating The "Need" For Putrid Pride
Lost-Man Lust
And
Enervating Envy!
It's Time That We Cease From Wanting
With The Dying World To Be Trendy!

Indeed!
It Was Envy That Got Us Into This Mess 
In The First Place!

Thank God That Jesus Christ Saves!

PRAYER : Lord, Please Let Your Sure Word Move Me!

Lord,

All Around Are Books

Writings

Teachings

Purporting To Offer Advice Sound

Yet Giving Place To The Ways Of The Devil

And

At Your True And Living Word

Causing The World To Greatly Frown!

For
I Desire To See

To Enter Into That World
Where One Never Cries!

Lord,

And

Strengthen Me

Root Me

Ground Me

To Believe

And

To Trust The Promises

In My Walk With The Lord Christ

So That My Life Is A Delight

A Blessing To My King

A Help To My Brethren

To You, Lord

A Fragrant Offering!

Let Me Walk!

Let Me Live

By The Book

So That In
The Coming Day Of Vengeance

Salvation Is Sure

For Jesus Is The Word

The Word Is The Door

The Door Is God
And
God Is Eternal
And

The Eternal God Promised Me

Eternal Life

In Eternity

And
I Desire To Receive My Blessing!

Please, Lord
Remember The Humble

The Poor And The Meek!

Lift Up The Fallen

And

Bless Those Who

The Eternal Kingdom Seek!

Comfort The Sorrowing!

Provide For Those Who Have Nothing To Eat
Whether It Be
For Spiritual Or Physical Nourishment!

Teach Those Who Are Searching
For God's Truth
And

Let Not The Wasters

In Our Lives Havok Wreak!

Humble The Proud

The Arrogant

And
Those Who Seek

The Lives Of The Children Of The Day

 - The Citizens Of The Kingdom Of Light -

To Daily Render Bleak!

Bless Us To Do Thy Will

Even Though Self Says "No!"

And
Help Us

Lord, Help Us

In The Faith Of Christ To Grow!

Keep And Save Us

Is My Humble Plea
And
I Ask All

In The Only Name That Matters

The Name Of
Jesus Christ The Righteous!
Oh, How We Love You, Lord!

AMEN.
