SALVATION: A Gift That Man's Money Can't Buy!

Gifts Are To Be Treasured!
The Giver Is To Be Blessed!
BUT
Be Careful
Who You Are Blessing
For The Gift 
May Not Be From
The Father Of Lights
Who Holds Your Heavenly Interests
In Plain Sight!

BUT ...

There Is One Gift
Worthy
From The Only One 
Worthy
To Be Praised!

Salvation
Is A Gift From God
Purchased
With The Blood Of The Son
Beloved
Precious
Sent From Heaven Above
To Acquire For Us
A Pre-Paid Return Ticket
Home
To The Heavenly Father
The Eternal God Of Holy Love!

Salvation
Can Be Likened Unto A Favored Puppy
Overloved
BUT
Suffering From Neglect!
We Hug!
We Snuggle!
We Tickle!
We Play!
But Then
We Never Give The Favored Puppy
Nourishing Food
And Clean Water
Nor A Bath
When Its Body
Has Dirt More Than A Speck!

Salvation Can Be Seen
As A Beating Heart!
We Take It For Granted!
It Is Just There
BUT
Always In The Dark!
It Beats!
We Accept It!
It Pumps Life-Giving Blood
BUT
In The DayThat  It Goes Quiet
There Is Nothing That We Can Do
AND
The Family Cries Tears Like Unto A Flood!

How Shall We Stand
If Neglected Is Our Salvation?
How Will We Stand
When The Father Closes The Door?
How, Brother Sister
Will You Enter The Kingdom
When Your Purchased Salvation
Your Ticket
Is Upside Down
Torn
Under A Cupboard
On The Dirty Dirt Kitchen Floor?

Preservation 
Is For Saints!
Destruction
Is For The Damned!
What Is Your Marker?
Tell Me ... If You Can?

Salvation Is A Gift
That Man's Money
Can't Buy!
It Gives The Receiver Wings
AND
A Path By Which To Heaven 
He Will In The Gospel Train Fly!

Salvation Is A Gift 
From The Holy God
Bought With Holy Blood
Packaged With Mercy
AND
Delivered By Grace
To Be Accepted By A Heart Filled With Praise
To Be Held Securely In Hands Made Steady By The Blessed Hope
AND
Gazed Upon By Eyes Filled With Faith
AND
Gratefully Stored
In The New Man Indwelt By The Holy Spirit
In The Regenerated Heart Of Flesh
Beating Valiantly 
For Jesus Christ
The Only One Righteous
Who Willingly Died To Save Us!

PLEASE  ...

Don't Treat Your Gift Lightly!
It Comes From Him Who Loves Us Best
So Treasure It Rightly
AND
The Giver's Holy Name 
Joyously
To The Dying World
Confess!

And
Let's Say Reverently: 

Thank You, God! Yes!
I Accept The Gift Of Salvation!
I Am Highly Favored
And
Gloriously Blessed!

HAPPY SABBATH + Getting To Wear The Real King's Clothes + Prayer

The Word of God is Sharper
Than any Two-edged Sword
Dividing The Soul and The Spirit
Exposing The Marrow in The Bone!

With such a Weapon at our Disposal
What do we have to Fear?
Preach The Word In and Out of Season
For God's Trees Will Produce and Good Fruit bear!

Satan is The Liar!
His Arsenal includes Doubt, Disbelief and Fear
And if you Give him even Scant Soul Entry
He will set up his Lion's Den there!

The Word of The Lord is Quick and Powerful!
Don't Forget it, and don't from Truth Walk Away!
Let The Master Measure you for a Righteous Garment
As you Believe, Trust and Work while Awaiting 
The Kingdom's New Residents' Dressing-Up Day!

Lord, I Want to Wear Your Garment

That Garment Called Christ's Righteousness

Bless Me, Help Me to Walk As One Holy

Not Craven and Given to High-mindedness!

Help Me to Humble Myself Daily!

Help Me to Honor You and Obey!

Help Me to Deny Self and Presumption!

Give Me Fresh Courage to Walk In Faith and

To be Instant and Constant in Pray!

I Love You, Lord.

AMEN.
