VESPERS AT THE END OF THE SABBATH: Worry!?! + PRAYER: I Desire To Please You, Father!

Wow!
You Look So Different!
What's Your Secret!?!

It's No Secret!
I Quit My Work Three Weeks, Four Days

And Fourteen Hours Ago!

What Do You Mean You Quit Your Work!?!
I Saw You On The Job ... In The Distance
Up To Yesterday!

I, Sure Enough, Did Quit
And I Am Fitter
And Fatter
And More Peaceful
And More Rested
And Busier Than Ever!
And ... I'm Loving It!

Hold On, Missy!
You Need To Explain This!

I Quit Going Into Work At The Yoke Manufacturing Plant!
I Quit Working At Worry!
I Suddenly Remembered That
- It Was Brought To My Mind  -
Worry Is An Unnecessary Job! 

Worry Makes Life Harder
The Problems More Severe
And
Manufactures Heavier Burdens
Making Everything Twice What They Need To Be
And
Says Plainly To The Burden Bearer:

Your God Can't Help You!
Enjoy The Load! 
Settle In! 
Be Comfy!


Merciful Powers!

It's True!
I Was Weary With Worry!
I Was In The Class Called Standard Of The World!
I Walked World!
And
I Spoke Christian!
I Was Singing Hymns And Psalms
And, YetI Was In The Service Of Sin!
I Had Desires Above Loving The Son Of Man!

I Had Become Proficient In 
The Customs Of Practicing Worry
And
I Had Been Perplexing My Mind
At How I Could Get Things
- My Lustful Desires -
Fulfilled In A Real Hurry!

I Was Like The Hamster On The Wheel
Running, Running ...!

... And Going Nowhere Real Fast ...!

... And Having All Day To Get There!

What Opened Your Eyes!?!
What Made You Get Off The Wheel!?!
What Caused You The Job Of Worry To Quit!?!

It Was Really Quite Amazing, And I Quote:

I Will Not Leave You Nor Forsake You! 

I Will Not Leave You Comfortless! 
I Will Not Leave You Alone! 
I Number The Hairs On Your Head! 
You Are Worth More Than The Sparrow!
You Are In My Heart! 
I Think On You! 
Your Name Is Engraved
On The Palm Of My Hand! 
I Am Preparing A Place For You:
Do Not Let Worry Stay You From On Your Lot 
Being Able To Stand! 
Precious Child! 
Cease Your Worry! 
Take My Extended Hand!


I Took The Extended-To-Me Hand!
I Accepted The Hand Of Mercy!
I Accepted The Living Holy Word!
I Cast Away My Idols:
  • Self 
  • Self-Service
  • Self-Sufficiency
  • Self-Aggrandizement
  • Pride And Vanity

And
I, Repentant
Clothed Myself In Plain Humility! 

I Humbled Myself Before The Holy Son Of God
The Returning Son Of Man!

How Did That Feel!?!

Funny ... At First
Then Fabulous! 

My Jesus
- My Master -
Unfailingly Takes Care Of Me ... Old, Simple, Me!
I Now Daily Take Up My Cross With My Left Hand
And
He Leads Me By My Right Hand!
With Him Leading
I Shall On The Mount Zion
Among The Redeemed Brethren
Immortalized, Incorruptible
Glorified ... Grateful And Blessed Forever
In Triumph Stand!

Would You Introduce Me To The Son Of Man!?!

Absolutely! I Sure Enough Can!

PRAYER:

Please Help Me, Dear Father!
I Am Calling Out To You!
Help Me To Rest In The Shadow Of Your Wings
So That I, Sinner-Repentant
Will Always Be Close To You!


I Pray For Soul And Bodily Healing
Not For Riches, Houses Or Lands!
I Pray For A Converted-To-Christ Heart
So That I May Live Forever With Him
In Beulah, The Beautiful Land!


I Pray For Peace With You, My Father
And
For Strength
To Fight 
The Good Fight Of Faith!
I Pray For Clean Hands
And
A Pure Heart
So That I May Stand Up Straight
In Your Presence
And
Not Be Amongst Those Wearing
The Ashamed Face
Those Of The Disobedient Wild Goat Clan
Who Refused To Follow The Redemption Plan!


I Believe Your Word Is Faithful!
I Believe Your Love Is True!
I Believe That Grace And Mercy
Are Prized Possessions
Blessed
Because They Come Out From You!


I Desire To Please You, Father!
I Desire To Honor Your Great And Holy Name!
I Desire To Tell Others
The Good News Of The Holy Jesus
And
The Coming Kingdom
And
I Desire To Be Embraced
Loved
Guided, Corrected, Protected
Blessed Beyond All Imagining By You
Who Is Loving, Kind, Just And Forever True!


Pity Your People, I Beseech You, Father
Those Who Honor You
Worship You Faithfully
And Adore
Those Who Look For And Love
The Lord's Appearing
Which, Even Now
Is At The Door!


Lead Us, Lord! 
Guide Us Today!
Bless Us With All Blessing
For It Is To The Holy God Eternal
That We Humbly Petition By Faithful Prayer!
We Love You, Father
And Ask These Few Mercies
In Jesus Christ's Matchless Holy Name!
Please Come Soon!
AMEN!

Great Questions For Good Christians + PRAYER: Open Our Hearts, Lord!






Since Jesus Christ Is God
And Jesus Christ Has His Father
For His God
Do We Not Need Jesus Christ
As Our God
To Get Jesus' Father God
As God Our Father?

Since Jesus Christ IS The Word
And The Word Is God
And God Sends The Holy Spirit
Do We Not Need Jesus Christ To Get The Holy Spirit?

Since The Holy Spirit Is The Comforter
And Jesus Christ Said
He Will Not Leave Us Comfortless
Do We Not Need Jesus Christ
To Get The Comfort Of The Comforter?

Almighty God IS The Father
And Jesus Christ Said:
I And The Father Are One!
And
No One Gets To The Father But By Me
And Jesus Christ Is The Son Of God
And You Get To The Father
By Going Through The Son
Do We Not Get God The Father
When
We Get God The Son?
Is Not Almighty God Jesus Christ?

Jesus Christ IS The True Vine!
He Says That We Are The Branches!

Jesus Christ Gives To Every Man 
A Measure Of Faith.

Faith Is A Good Fruit!
Man Must Stay Attached To The True Vine 
To Be Good Fruit!

If We Need Faith 
To Overcome The World
Does It Not Stand To Reason 
That We Need Jesus Christ 
In Order To Bear Good Fruit 
For The Harvest Celebration
Which Comes For Us
Only If We Have The Faith 
Which Is What We Get From Jesus Christ
That We Then Use To Overcome The World
Which Will Cause Us To Shine 
So That Jesus Will Commend Us To His Father 
So That We Are Recipients Of The Award 
Given To Those Enduring Faithful 
On The Receiving Line 
In The Great Day?

Jesus Christ IS Almighty God!
Almighty God IS Faithful!
AND
We MUST Trust Jesus Christ
Who Was Born In A Stable
AND
Walked On The Lonesome Road
AND
Died 
AND
Arose And Ascended
AND
Is Right Now
In The Most Holy Place Of The Heavenly Sanctuary
Interceding
AND
Is Coming Again
For Men Who Trust
Not Those Who Lust
Making A Fuss
Over Things Which Are Soon Dust!

I Trust Jesus Christ!
AND
I Beseech You, Brethren
Trust Wholly In Him!
Trust The Living God's Word
AND
Don't Live In Lust
Like Those Of The Grazing Goat Herd!
Live Blessed On The Holy Word
Digested Read Heard!
Please Do Not Live To Forever Die!
Please Live So That
To Jesus Christ You Will Fly!



PRAYER:



Open Our Eyes, Lord
That We  May See Jesus Christ
As The Savior God
That He Is!

Open Our Hearts
To Receive The Great Blessing
That You Are Willing To Import!

Thank You, Lord
For Imputing Christ's Righteousness
Unto Us
So That We May Boldly Approach
Unto You
For Dear Grace!

 Thank You, Lord
For Not Rejecting
Our Humble Prayers
That We In Jesus' Name
In Faith
Say Unto Thee!

Thank You, Lord
For The Mercy
And
The Grace
And
The Provision
That Assures Us
That In Heaven
You Have Prepared For Us A Place!
What A Blessed Day
It Shall Be When Our Faith
Becomes Sight!

Father,
Lift Us Up
So That We Will - In Faith - Lift You Up
Is The Plea Of Our Believing Hearts
Humbly Petitioning
For Your Favor
For We Truly Love Thee!
Accept Our Prayer
And
Answer
According To Your Will
 And
In Your Way
In Jesus Christ's Name, We Plead!
AMEN.

VESPERS AT THE END OF THE SABBATH: PRAYER For Unshrinkable Faith





PRAYER:


Father,
I Come Before You As A Child
With The Faith That Let's Me Speak Plain
To Confess That
I Would Prefer To Butt-about
The World
Living Faithfully In You
Than
To Live In An Earthly Mansion
With A Live Devil
Who Takes Pleasure
Daily
In Picking My Goose!

I Prefer To Suffer With The Saints Now
And
Rejoice With Them Later In Heaven
Than To Dwell
In The Wide Tents Of Wickedness Now
And
Seek Later For Mercy
That Will Not Be Forthcoming!

Father,
In Faith
I Desire A Heart That Is Pure
Seeking For Eternal Joys
On The Golden Shore!
Please
Help Me To Send Ahead Treasures
That Cannot E'er Spoil!

I Desire A Will
That Walks With You
And A Spirit
That Is Lit
With The Joy That Comes
After
The Long And Dark Night
On This Cruel Shore!

Father,
Earthly Peace Is Passing
And
The Devils Are Amassing
And
Those Who Would Lead Us
Would Have Our Consciences Be Things
Of The Past!
Pity Us!

Lord,
I Seek The Faith
That Will Never Shrink
The Faith That Stands Firm
Even As Flesh Is On Destruction's Brink
The Faith That Comes
When I Reason With The Lord
And Think
Of The Grace
That Is Sufficient
For Each Day's Tasks
Sufficient To Help Me To Survive
And Overcome
Despite Satan's Wrath!

Father,
I Love You!
I Bless You!
I Honor You, True!
You Are The God Eternal
And
I Wait Upon You
To Keep Me
To Bless Me
To Make Me Anew
And
In The Glad Day
To Take Me
To Highest Heaven
To Live
Eternally
With You!

Teach Me Thy Ways, Oh God
For
My Heart Is Longing After You!
I Make My Petition
In The Name Of The One Who Will Bless
Jesus Christ The Righteous
In Whose Heart
My Life Rests!
AMEN.
