PRAYER: Heaven Is My Home!

Father,
I Love You
And I Thank You For Dear Grace!
I Am Looking Up And Longing
Assured That There Is Blessed Hope
And In Heaven, For Me, A Prepared Place!

Lord,
I Look Around Me!
There Is Competiton Everywhere!
People Are Laying Everything On The Line
Competing With The Bold
The Beautiful, The Brash
The Talented, The Intemperate
The Ungodly, The Irreverent
For The Unprofitable Man-Blessed First Place!

Dear Lord,
Have Mercy Upon Them!
Have Mercy Upon Me, Too!
I Have Resolved That I Will Be Striving
For A Sure Place
In Eternity With You!

I Need You, Lord!
I Know This Need That You, Alone
Can Feed To Satisfaction
And Then Unimaginable More
As Is Found On The Peaceful, Golden, Shore!

Please Bless Me, My Father
And Help Me To Stand In The Faith Of
Christ Jesus The Holy Son Of Man
Who Has Caused Us To Be Accepted In The Beloved
Who Has Made The Way To Heaven Plain
Who Is Not Ashamed To Call Us Brethren
And Each And Everyone By Name!

Oh, How I Love Jesus
Who Gave His Life For Me!
Oh, How I Love Jesus
Who Died Shamefully On Mount Calvary!

I Am Blessed And I Know It!
Help Me The Great Name Not To Profane!
I Am Blessed And I Know It!
Help Me For I Desire Eternal Gain
And Not The Glitz, The Glamor 
The Adulation, The Big Prize Offered
For A Soul To Be Sold
For The Pittance Constructed By Lies!

I Am Grateful That Jesus Christ Paid My Price!
I Desire To Gain The Eternal Prize!
Please Continue To Grant Me Your Grace
That Unmerited Favor
And Your Mercy Ever Free: I Believe!
I Desire In Peace To The Dear One's Sweet Face!

Help Me To Look Up And Walk On In Plain Truth!
Help Me To Stand Up To Speak Righteousness
To The Brethren
Whether They Be Young, Old
Humbly-Learning Child Or Know-It-All Youth!

Heaven In My Home!
Please Help Me To Get There
And Bless My Living, Lord
To Bless Another With The Sure knowledge
That, For Them ... If Willing
There Is Also A Named Chair!

Thank You For The Blessings Given!
Thank You For The Blessings To Come!
I Pray For The Brethren Around The World
And Plead The Blood Of Jesus Christ
Over Each And Every One Of Them
That They Will Make 
Their Calling And Election Sure
Before Life's Day Is Closed And Done!

Thank You For Hearing!
Thank You For Answered Prayer
And Answers Soon To Come
For It Is In Jesus Christ's Holy Name
That I Humbly Pray And Plead!
Please Come Soon!
AMEN.

PRAYER: Total Confidence In Jesus Christ, The Light Of Life!

Almighty God,
You Are My Father And My Friend
And
My Hope, My Help And My Salvation
Until My Mortal Life Shall End!

Satan Is The Fiend And My Known Foe
And 
It Is To You, God Beloved
That No Matter What Happens To Me
In This Life
I Shall In Total Confidence Go!
Please Keep Me
So That This Will Forever Be So!

What Can Man Do Unto Me!?!
Man Does Not Hold My Heart!
What Can Satan Do Unto Me That
The Spirit Of Truth Does Not Reveal
And
Provide Wisdom And Comfort Against
In Beautiful Tones As Sings The Lark!?!

Father,
My Life Is Yours!
My Service Is Yours!
My Heart Is Yours!
My Mind Dwells On You!
My Hope Is In You!
My Prayers Are To You
And
My Song Is About You!

I Am Yours, Lord!
Make Me Forever Yours!

I, Now, Fully Understand, Father
The Living Word That Says
We Sin By Thought
By Word
By Deed
And 
In Godly Fear, My Father
I Beseech You To Help Me
To Escape Satan's Snare
By Doing As My Master Did
And
Resorting To You Always In Prayer
For Communion
For Strength
For Love With Love
And
Always Exercising The Word Of Truth
Having An "It Is Written!"
On My Tongue
To Caress And Enter
The Willing Hearer's Ear
And
To Ever Bruise The Head
Of
The Accuser Of The Brethren
The Adversary Of Every Man's Soul!
Father,
Please Keep Me Faithful:
I Desire To Receive From The Holy Hand
Of
My Redeemer
The Overcomer's Crown Of Gold!

I Am Yours, Lord!
Please Help Me
To Never Permit That To Ever Change
No Matter The Matter
No Matter The Wind
No Matter The Weather
No Matter The World's Whim!

Please Help Me To Stay On Task
On Target
On The Strait And Narrow Road
To Hill Zion!

With Gratitude
And
A Thankful Heart, Dear Father
And
In The Name Of The Holy Jesus
Beloved Savior
And
Soon Returning Triumphant King
Please Grant Me These Few Petitions
And
Bless Me With Enduring And Obedient Faith!
Please Help Me To Hold The Hand
That Even Now Is Holding Me!
Please Remember The Brethren In Mercy
And 
Grant Us Your Always-Sufficient Grace!
I Love You, Lord!
Please Come Soon!
AMEN.

VESPERS AT THE END OF THE SABBATH: Almighty God Rules ... In The Affairs Of Men!

There Is An Old Adage:

Look For Trouble
And It You Shall Surely Find!

And

The Bible States:

If The Almighty God Says 
"Speak To The Rock!"Don't Bash It Repeatedly
When Anger Is In Your Spine!

If The Almighty God Says
"Walk!"That Is What You Must Do!
Do Not Mind What Others Are Doing
For
The Almighty God Says
Obedience Causes Him
To More Lovingly Care For You!

The Almighty God Raises Up Kings
AND
He Takes Kings Away!
Some Are Anointed
AND
Appointed To Bless
AND
Others Are Appointed For Our Chastisement
When From The Holy God's Tenets
We Boldly Go Astray
Willfully Sinning
Seeing Nothing About Sin To Confess!

Just Think Of King Jeroboam
Used By The Lord
With The Promise:

Obedience By You Will Be Blessed!


Look, Again, At Jeroboam
And SeeFlagrant Disobedience
After
He Started To Buy Into His Own Press!
He Considered Himself A Great Success!

Understand That ...

Any Person Willing
May Be Used ... Valiantly
In The Cause Of God
BUT
Watch The Blessing
Turned Into Cursing
When Pride
Causes A Vile Linkup
With The Wily Fraud!

The Babylonian King Nebuchadnezzar
Was Appointed To Be Blessed!
He Conquered The World
And Then AssumedThat All His Glories
Were By His Own Prowess!

But, Now ...

Look ... At His Punishment
View ... His Repentance
Applaud ... His Reappointment By God
AND
Know
Understand
Appreciate
Accept
See That
There. Is. No. Blessing.
In Less-Counting The Holy God!

Chastisement Is A Faithful Rod!

Almighty God Rules
In The Affairs Of Men!
For Good Or For Ill
He Can Appoint Even The Basest Of Men! 

A Base Man May Be Low-Born
Or
A High-Born Man Who Is Mind Is Base
AND
In Beholding Such A Circumstance
You Will Recognize That The Almighty God
Is
Sovereign
AND
You Will Know
To Keep Your Eyes Steadfastly Fixed Upon Him!

Please ...

Let Us Pray For Our Leaders
That They Permit Themselves 
To Be Used For Good
AND
By The Holy God
AND
Let Us Also Pray For Yourselves
That We Do Not Look Up To Mere Men
As We Should Look To The Saving God!

Don't ...

Pray Ill For Any Man
Because
There Is No Blessing In That!
Just Pray In Faith
For Healing!
For Heeding! 
AND
Do The Works Of Him Who Sends You
AND
Trust
AND
Obey The Lord Christ Jesus
Who Is Our Guide
Until Our Own Lives
Or
This Mortal Life Ends!

Almighty God 
Is 
Ever Always In Perfect Control
And

He Does Not Share His Glory
With False Gods
False Prophets
Beast Powers
Nor
That Dragon
Satan The Fraud

So
Look Unto Jesus Christ
Learn From Jesus Christ 
Lean Upon Jesus Christ
The Author
And
Finisher Of Your Most Holy Faith
Because
He Will Not Ever
Let You Down!

He, Alone, Wears
The Eternal Crown!
