Walk Worthy Of Your High Calling To The Glorious Kingdom!

 












Dare To Be Kind! 
Valiantly Choose To Be Loving! 

You Are Freely Given Everything From The Lord 
So Gratefully Give A Lil' Something To Somebody 
Just Because You Want To And Can! 

You Have Been Forgiven Much By The Lord 
So Generously Be Forgiving! 

Be Faithful Until Death: 
The Life-Giver Will Awaken You! 

Be Hopeful All Day Every Day! 
Bless The Holy God Who Infinitely Blesses You! 

Humbly, Gladly, Give Praise To The Lord 
Because 
He Deserves It! 
Praise Is What We Do!

Bless Yourself By Praying To The Almighty God 
Who Desires Communion And Communication With You 
Because 
Of Heavenly Love! 

Walk Worthy Of Your High Calling To The Glorious Kingdom! 

Endure All Things For The Lord Jesus 
Who Endured All Things To Gain For You 
The Right To Become A Son, A Daughter, Of Our Father God, The Almighty
And 
To Sit At The Table At The Feast For The Forever Blessed ... By Right! 

Beloved, 

Almighty God's Love ... Jesus Christ The Lord
Is 
Our Own For The Taking! 

Open Your Arms And Freely Enjoy The One Gift That 
All The Wealth Of The World 
Is 
Not Enough To Initiate The Sale 
Or Finalize The Purchase! 

Sing "Hallelujah!" 
Our God Is Good And Faithful! 
Amen! 

Peace!

VESPERS AT THE END OF THE SABBATH : There Is An Elevator In Endurance!




There Is No Point To Pride
No Satisfaction In Sin
And 
Nothing Graceful About Greed! 

There Is A Mattress In Mercy
And 
A Pillow In Peace! 

There Is An Object In Obedience
And 
An Elevator in Endurance! 

There Is A Push In Perseverance
Amazing Love In Following The Lord
And 
Worth In Walking Wisely! 

There Is Power That Comes 
From Praising Him Who Calls Us To His Side
And 
We Are Blessed Beyond All Measuring 
When We Walk In The Way That 
Leads To His Eternal Life! 

There Is A Train In Truth 
So Get On Board To Avoid Damnation's Gloriless Horde! 

Dear Ones, 

The Lord Jesus Saves Us One By One 
So Do Not Follow The Loud-Mouthed 
So-Called Powerful 
Known Wayward, Winsome, Wicked, And Wild 
Just Because You Want Things! 

The Loud-Mouthed Will Have Nothing To Say
And 
The Powerful Will Be Powerless 
In The Wondrous Presence Of Our Glorious King
Jesus Christ The Lord! 

Choose Wisely: 
Early, And In Earnest, Seek The Savior! 

Peace!

The Purge!



I Don't Know About You
But 
I Distinctly Remember That "Abomination" Called The Purge That 
We Had To Endure Every Sunday Morning
At The Beginning Of The School Term
And 
Coming Off School For Vacation 
And
May The Good Lord Help You 
If 
You Were "Foolish" Enough To Utter Those "Damning" Words: 
"My Belly Hurting Me!" 

Some Families Dished Out A Spoonful Of 
Shark Oil And A Quarter Of An Orange! 

My Family Dished Out Castor Oil And The Orange! 
A Leather Belt Was On The Table To Motivate Me To Cooperate: 
I Roundly Despised Castor Oil!

Strangely Enough Though
After That Disaster Called The Purge Aka The Cleansing
You No Longer Felt Like An Old Hard-Mout' Goat 
But 
Had The Joy And Energy Of A Young Spring Lamb! 
Oh, The Ode To Joy! 

Beloved, 

The Purge Is Needed 
To Get Rid Of What Hurts, Harms, And Hinders! 

The Purge Is Necessary For Physical, Spiritual
And 
Emotional Health And Well-Being! 

If We Are Not Purged Of Our Sins, Our Dead Works, Here
We Will Never Enter The Joy Of The Lord Over There! 

Sin Is Waste 
So Let's Take The Good Word That Purges Aka Cleans Us 
And 
Let The Waste, The Sin
Go Out In The Draught! 

The Pain Is Temporary 
But
Pleasure Aka Joy And Peace In Paradise Are Forever! 

Let Jesus Christ Be Praised! 

Peace!

VESPERS AT THE END OF THE SABBATH: Praise The Lord ... With Truth!







Praise God From Whom All Blessings Flow! 

Our God Is The God Of Order, The Master Of Design! 
He Changes Not From Day To Day 
Because 
He Is Almighty, Holy, Divine! 

Speak No Corrupt Words! 

Order Out Of Chaos 
Is 
The Satanic Construct 
And 
All Who Follow After This Fad 
Do Not With Saving Truth
Legal Business Conduct! 

Beloved, 

As Believers, We Must Stand In The Truth 
Or Fall By Science So Called 
As Proffered By Those Who Know Not The True And Living God! 

Dare To Look At Your Eye
You Hand
Your Tongue
Your Skin
And 
Letting The Truth Be Your Living Guide
See If Chaos Was The Lead In Your Body Parts' Making! 

We Are Fearfully And Wonderfully Made 
With Love Stitching Our Parts Together
So There Is No Need To Permit Satan And His Minions 
To Tie Us In Knots
When The Creator, The Author
The Finisher Of Our Faith 
Invites Us On His Land On One Of Its Lots
Residence Freely To Take Up! 

Open Your Eyes! 
Truth Is Shining: 
Speak It! 

Lift Up Jesus Christ The Lord! 

Peace!

Praise Almighty God Anyhow, Anywhere ... Just Because!






Are You Willing, By The Living God's Great Grace
To Tell John Q. Public And Ms. Anony Mous 
Of All That The Lord Has Done
Is Doing And Will Do For You 

Or

Are You Sooo Caught Up In 
"Woe Is Me!" 
And 
"Why Me, Lord!" 
That You Fail To Recognize That Almighty God Is Good
That He Loves You Personally
And 
Has Repeatedly Saved You From Yourself 
And
From Besetting Sin
And 
Has Made Your Heart Radiantly Glad 
When You, With Limited Vision
Had No Idea What You Would Or Could Do 
If
Tomorrow Brought Another Misery
Trial Of Faith
Health Scare
Financial Setback
Emotional Distress
Or Unexpected Grief Or Sorrow!?! 

Beloved, 

We Are Guilty Of Begging Almighty God For Good Gifts 
And
Having Received Them ... And More Besides
Forgetting Or Even Unwisely Neglecting 
To Give Our God Thanks And Bold Praise! 

We Are Guilty Of Making Agreements With The Lord 
And
Brazenly Breaking Them 
After The Lord Has Amazingly Delivered 
The Delights Of Life To Us! 

Brethren, Beloved, 

Let Us From This Moment On 
Daringly Decide To Praise The Lord Anyhow
Anywhere 
And
Just Because!

Let Us Decide To Thank God 
For Helping Us To Admit, Again, That 
Having Another Reason
Another Day To Need Him
And 
To Be Glad To Praise Him For Life
Is 
Our Blessing ... Our Blessed Gift ... Today! 

The "Price" For Living 
Is 
Prayer And Praise: 
Just Do It! 
The Preserved Word Of The Eternal God
Does Not Lie!

Peace!

VESPERS AT THE END OF THE SABBATH: PRAYER: Looking Beyond My Brethren's Faults!







PRAYER:

Lord,
I Love You
And
I Come In Working Faith, Nothing Wavering
Knowing That You Will Never Turn Me Away Empty-Handed!
I Praise You And Worship And Adore You!

In Your Loving And Holy Presence
I Take Myself To Task Today
And
Humbly, Gratefully, Remind Myself That
You, By Grace And Mercy Free
Looked Beyond My Faults
And
Saw My Needs
And
Have Done All That Is Possible
To Make The Way Plain For Me To Escape Self
And
Depart From Sin
And
Walk Safely Into Salvation!

I Give Unto You Heartfelt Thanks And Praise
And
Ask You To Help Me, In Christian Charity
In Christ-Like Love
To Daily Deal Likewise With My Brethren
As I  ... By Right ... Desire To Enter That Special Gate
In The Glorious Kingdom Above
For The Character-Flaw Of Which
I Shall Be Known An Overcomer!

Please Help Me To Take To Heart
The Lesson You Taught Which States That
Peace-Makers Are Blessed
And
Are Called The Children Of God!

Please Help Me, Dear Father
To Remember Whose I Am
And
The Prize For Which I Am Striving
And
Bless Me To Keep Jesus Christ In My Heart
Zion In My Eyesight
And
A Civil Word On My Tongue
As The Holy Angels Influence Me
To Do What Is Good And Right
While The Holy Spirit Leads Me Into All Truth
And
Gently Corrects Me
When I Stray From The Straight And Narrow Way
To Everlasting Life!

Please Help Me To Bear Good Fruit Unto Righteousness
In Jesus Christ's Holy Name
I Humbly Pray And In Need Plead!
Please Come For Us Soon!
AMEN!

HAPPY SABBATH + Is Praise What You Do!?!


 






Is Praise What You Do!?! 

Or 

Do You Accept The Gifts Of The Creator God 
As Your Personal Due 
And
Dare To Ask ... Even As A Fleeting Thought: 
"Lord, What Took You So Long!?!" 
Or 
"Wow! 
Is This Really The Best That 
You Can Do For Me!?!" 

Ingratitude ... And Greed 
Along With Envy ... And Hatred 
Are Unholy Traits Of Character 
Which Must Be Purged From The Heart 
If 
We Will See Our Lord Jesus In Peace! 

Beloved, 

There Is Nothing Wrong With Wanting Good Gifts 
But 
Everything 
Is 
Wrong 
With Walking Around With The Attitude That 
The Lord ... Or Anybody
Has To Give You Anything 
And 
Everything That Your Heart Desires
Even Though It Is Known That Such A Gift 
Is 
Neither Good Nor Beneficial! 

Let Us Be Wise Enough 
To Be Grateful To Our God 
For What We Do Receive 
From His Holy Hand Of Love 
And 
Blessing 
And
Cease From Insulting Our Maker, God And King 
By Walking Around With The Air Of Entitlement! 

"Thank You!
Bless You!
I Love My Present-Gift! 
You're Wonderful!
I Appreciate You!" 
Is
The Cheapest
Most Expensive
Most Appreciated Gift
That
We Can Give: 
Extravagantly Give It!

The Lord Of Glory Doesn't Owe Us Anything! 
We ... To The Contrary
Owe Our Savior, Sustainer, Provider, Redeemer 
And 
Forever Friend
Absolutely Everything! 
Our Lives Are In His Hands!

Choose To Be Grateful, Thankful ...

Lift Your Heart To Heaven
And 
Praise God ... Just Because 
And Because 
It Is A Blessed Privilege 
And
Thoroughly Good For Us: 
It Is The Lover Of Our Purchased Souls'  Due! 

Beloved,

Get Thee Hence To The Altar Of Praise
And
Give Almighty God ... Father, Son And Holy Spirit ... His Praise:
Put Your Whole Being Into It
And
Be Glad
And
Be Gloriously Blessed ... Again ... And Again!

NEED Versus WANT: Christ And Chocolate

 





If We Don't Call Upon The Lord By Praying
He Cannot Answer Us! 

If We Do Not Ask For Forgiveness For Known Sin By Confession 
And
Repentance
The Lord ... God Almighty ... Cannot Forgive Us Our Sins 
And 
Cleanse Us From All Of Our Known Acts Of Unrighteousness! 

The Lord Instructs Us To Ask Of Him 
To Receive From Him: 
Don't Be Proud And Foolish! 

Beloved, 

Today Is The Day Of Salvation 
And
Salvation Is For Us Who Know 
And 
Readily Acknowledge That 
We Are Sinners Needing Saving: 
Never Mix Up Your Needs For Your Wants! 

Know The Right ...

We Need Christ! 
We Want Chocolate! 

We Need Faith And Forgiveness! 
We Want Fame And Fortune! 

We Need To Speak Truth And Exhibit Trust! 
We Want Toys And Trinkets! 

Brethren, Beloved, 

The Lord Desires Us To Come Home To Him
 By Walking In The Light 
And 
Doing The Good 
And  
The Right
Because
It Is Right! 

Let Us, Therefore, Rejoice That Our Jesus Christ 
Is 
King Forever 
And 
Dare To Trust The Living Word 
And 
Fall Upon The Mercy That Is Offered To Us Free 

And 

Bask In The Grace, Freely Given, That 
Is 
Available, Sufficient 
And 
Enough ... Today
For All Of Our Needs! 

Let's Take All That Concerns Us To Our Blessed Lord Jesus
In Heartfelt Prayer
In Faith
For Love 
With Hope:
Remember To Give Him Your Thanks And Praise As Well! 

Peace
Is Not
A Merchantable Commodity!
Peace
Is
The Free Gift
Known Freely-Given To Us
By
Shiloh, The Prince Of Peace
The Light Of The World
The Certain Hope
Of
Every Man, Woman And Child!

TRUTH: Undeniable

No Middle Ground!
No Second Probation!
Eternal Life Or Eternal Death!
These Are The Options Available
To Me And To You!

Sow To The Flesh!
Sow To The Spirit!
The Options Are Plain!
Sowers And Sowing Have A Prescribed Limit!

Decisions Must Be Made ...

Man Woman
Girl Boy
Elder Junior
Choice Chance: Informed Decisions Will Be Made!

You Live!
You Die!
Friends And Family WilCry!
You Rest In Peace!
Others Live On In The Mortal Strife
But
At The End Of It All
Will There Be A Surprise
When Ends The Life Of The Blue Ball!?!





Life Unto Life Eternal!
Death Unto Death Eternal!

Picture It ...

Live For Christ: Dies In Christ
And
Arises From Death To Rise Up To Glory
With The Lord
The King, Jesus Christ
To Enjoy Peace And Bliss
In The Eternal Life!

Live For Self, Sin, And Satan:
Dies In Known And Practiced Sin
And
Gets Up To Face The Judge's Condemnation
And
In The Lake Burning With Fire And Brimstone
Will, With Satan And The Condemned Of The Ages
Be Assuredly Cast In!

What Damnation!

There Is No Do-Over!
Sin Is Over-Done!
But ...

No Shock!
There Is Present Forgiveness For
Confession And True Repentance
For Those Wise Who Choose To Live 

Under The Son!

The Son 
Is 
The Creator God
The Savior, The Redeemer
The Forever Friend
The One Willing
- Who Paid The Asked Price For Our Sinning -
The Only One Who Could See Through
And
Overcome Satan
And
The Demonic Device!

The Strong Tower ...

We Are To Take The Word Of God As Sacrosanct
Untouchable
Unchangeable
Unimpeachable
Totally Livable
Eternally Lovable
And
We Who Are The Called
The Wise
The Willing
The Believing

The Trusting
The Obedient
The Enduring Faithful
The Watching, Working, Waiting Ones
Shall Emerge Cleansed, Healed
Purified
Glorified
Because
Jesus Christ The Lord
The Word
Is
The Truth
Undeniable!



Give The Living Holy God
Unfeigned Praise!
Be Grateful For Grace:
Give Thanks
For
Innumerable
Immeasurable
Blessings!

PRAYER : Lord, I Tell Lies To My Self ...!



Lord, I have A Real Problem!
I Tell Lies Unto My Self!
Big Ones
Little Ones
Even Whoppers
And It's Not Pleasant
Looking At The Lie-To-My-Self Shelf!

I Make Up All Kinds Of Stories
As To Why Things Work Out The Way They Do
And, Please
Forgive Me, Dear Father
I Even Lie To My Self
About How Things Are Working
Between Wicked Me And Holy You!

When Things Between Me And My Brethren
Don't Go The Way That They Should
I Make Excuses For Me And For Them
And Say
Perhaps We Misunderstood Each Other 
And From The Hard Truth Turn And Run Away!

Father, I Need You To Help Me 
To Call A Spade A Spade
And
To Stop Making Excuses For Unkindness
And Pretending
About Mistakes That I Have Indeed Made!

Father,
Help To Accept Your "No!"
Your "Tomorrow!"
Your "Not Today!"
Your "Be Quiet
 And 
"Listen!"
Your Firm
"Leave That Alone!"
And
Your Order To
"Turn Aside!"
"Now By Your Self Stand Alone!"
And
"From That Fast Run Away!"

Lord, I Know Of A Truth That You Love Me!
I Know That You Have My Best Interests At Heart!
Lord, Please
My Will I Give To You
Would You Now Cause The Spirit Of Rebellion In Me To Depart?

Help Me, Dear Father
For I Love You, And I Give Unto You My Humble Praise
In Jesus Christ's Holy Name!
AMEN.

Praise The Lord! Praise The Lord?!




Praise The Lord!
Praise The Lord!
PRAISE THE LORD!!

So What Song Shall We Sing?

Sing?
Who Said Anything About Singing?!

You Did!

Me?!

Yes!  You!

How Did I DO That?!

You Said:  "Praise The Lord!"
Not Once But Three Times!

Ohhhh!  That Is Just An Expression!

What?!
Are You Crazy?!

Why Do You Ask That?

Wasn't King David Always Singing Praises Unto The Lord?!
Doesn't The Good Book Say In Psalm 147 That Praise Is Comely?
Listen To The Quotation:




Oh, That!!

Yes! That!!

Oh. I Just Got Into The Habit Of Saying What Is Happening 
Without Really Doing It!

Isn't That Deceitful?
Really Deceitful?!

Weeeeellll!!
When You Put It Like That ...!

Yes,  I DO!
If You Are Going To Praise God
Shouldn't You Actually Call His Name 
AND
Tell Of His Excellent Greatness
AND
Actually Sing Praises
Thoroughly Celebrating Our Great God?!

Yeah,  But ...

No But's!
If You Are Going To Praise God
You Should Actually Tell Him
Like How You "Praised Up" That Speaker Last Week
With All The Glorious Praise
Like He Was
Get This ...

GOD!!

Good Gracious!
But That Would Be Idolatry!!

Yuh Think!!

Father,  Forgive Me!
I Really Didn't Realize What I Was Doing!

... God Is Sooo Good!

Let Us Sing This Song 
Like We Believe It
AND
Like We Really Mean It!

God Has Been 
God Is
AND
God Will Ever Always Be Good To Us
So Let Us
Bless God
With Heartfelt Songs Of Praise!

The Truth! For Real!


Oh, That Men Would Yell The Truth
That God Is Love
That Satan Is Wild And Loose
That Love Is From Heaven
That Hate Is From Hell
That Denying The Liar Through Jesus
Is The Truth That Satan's Lies Cannot Dispel!

Oh, That Men Would Tell The Truth
That Salvation Is Through Jesus
That We Need Jesus To Get To God
That Earthly Comfort Is Of The Holy Spirit
That The Good And Evil Dead Are Not Yet Receiving Their Just Rewards
That Jesus Christ Is Soon Coming
That Signs Of The Times Are Everywhere
That The Prophetic Clock Is Sincerely Ticking, Can't You Hear?
That Demonic Activity Is In Every Activity Sphere
That The Earth Is Not Giving Her Increase
That Fear Is Causing Hearts To Decease
That The Love Of Many Is A Thing Grown Cold
That Legislated Sin Is Putting Many In The Lost Fold
That Sinners  Are Licensed And Protected And Getting Really Bright
AND
That Order Out Of Chaos Is The New Big Show!

Oh, That Men Would Yell The Truth
And Tell That Our Salvation Came Down
AND
Our Redemption Went Up
And He Who Was Dead
Is Alive
And That Forevermore
Will Soon Finish His Intercessory Work 
In The Most Holy Place
In The Temple In Heaven
And That Probation For Man
Will Be Finished
When The King Of Love Shall Stand Up!
His High Priestly Robes Will Be Removed
AND
The Garb Of The Conquering King Shall Be Donned
AND
Mercy Shall Be Set Aside
AND
With God Helping His Faithful Believers
Straight Up Justice
Will Start Her Punishing Ride!

Oh, That Men Would Accept The Truth!
God Loves Us!
His Love Is Original
AND
Not A Reboot!
God Is All
To Us
AND
For Us
The Only God True!
Call To Him Soft Loudly
He Is Here For You!
Anything Else
Is Not Biblical Truth!

Oh, That Men Would Praise The Lord!
