VESPERS AT THE END OF THE SABBATH: Stick To The Lord!

Commune Is A Place! 

Communion Is A Sacrament! 

Communicate Is A Conversation! 

Communication Is A Transfer Of Information By Any Means! 

Yet, We Commune With The Lord, Our God, In The Person Of Jesus Christ The Righteous, By Our Prayers And Praises! 

We Remember The Lord Jesus By Celebrating The Last Supper, Having A Communion Service Which Is Also Called The Ordinance Of Humility Aka Foot-Washing, And Breaking Of Unleavened Bread And Drinking Of Grape Juice! 

We Communicate With The Lord By The Reading Of The Preserved Word Of God, The King James Bible, The Lord's Love Letter To The Purchased Possession, His People, And Also With Our Prayers And By Our Praise AND The Giving Of Heartfelt Thanks! 

Our Communication With Our Lord Jesus Is Truly Two-Way Because We Not Only Have An Open Invitation To Come Boldly To The Throne Of Grace To Obtain Mercy And Grace To Help Us In Our Time Of Need, But The Invitation, Another Open Invitation, Is Issued To Us To Come And Reason With The King Of Glory! 

Brethren, We Do Not Have To Imagine And Hope, We Need To Accept And Dare To Act Upon Our Heaven-Granted Access To The I AM, The Creator Of All Things Visible And Invisible, Seen And Unseen, Who Condescends Aka Lowers Himself Aka Came Down To Our Level To Make Himself Known, Knowable! 

Dear Ones, Greatly Beloved Of The Infinite, Let Us Not Sell Ourselves Short By Buying Into The Sophistries, The Decorated Untruths Of The Father Of Lies, Satan, The Devil, The Roaring Lion, The Piercing Serpent, Beelzebub, The Lord Of Dung! 

Dung Is Waste Matter! 

The Roar Of That Lion Which Would Make You Pee Yourself, Is Coming From A Serpent Who Goes For Your Extremities! With Your Heart Guarded, Filled With The Love Of Almighty God And The Word Of Truth, You Can Rest Assured Of Christ's Free To You Salvation When You Realize, Recognize, That That Piercing Serpent's Venom Is Beelzebub's, The Lord Of Dung, Dung: It Has No Power Over The Lord's People Who Follow Him Wherever He Goes! 

Brethren, Stick To The Lord Jesus Who Stuck To The Cross For The Love Of You! 

The Lord Jesus, The Great I AM, IS, But Satan Is A Shape Shifter! 

Character Matters! 

Remember, Beloved, Nothing Can Separate You From The Love Of Jesus Because, Hell Or Heaven, Wherever You Are, He Is! 

In Sickness Or Health, In Little Or Much, Before The Kingly Powers Or The Ratchets Rising Aka Those With No Morals Who Take No Responsibility For Their Destructive Ways, Your Beliefs Aka Your Stance For Jesus, Your Standing In Jesus, Will Save Your Soul! 

Satan Is A Defeated Foe! 

Please Give Your All For The Lord Jesus Who Gave His All, His Life, For You! 

Dare To Resist Unto Blood Under The Blood-Stained Banner Of Prince Immanuel, The Prince Of Peace, Our Very Own Jesus Christ, The King Of Glory! 

Think Of Hearing His Voice Uttering The "Welcome Home, Children!" 

Again: Satan Is A Defeated Foe! 

Be At Peace With Almighty God: Pray, Read The Word, Give Praise, Give Thanks, Pray The Promises Of God! 

Walk Humbly Before Our God! 

Look Up: Our King Is Coming! 

Jehovah Shalom! The Lord Is Peace! 

 

HAPPY SABBATH + Prayer: Neither Ashamed Nor Afraid To Pray ...!

PRAYER:

Heavenly Father, Kind And True

I Choose To Take You At Your Holy Word Because

It Needs No Reminders About Follow-Up And Follow Through! 

You Are The Living God, Holy, Faithful, Loving

The Ever Blessing God Who Is Not A Liar! 

I Give You Thanks And Praise! 

Lord, I Have Made Up My Mind That

I Want, Need, Desire, And Must Have All

Every Last Gift, Benefit, And Blessing That

You Have Promised Me In The Word Of Truth 

And

Through The Innocent Blood Spilt Because Of Me

And

For Me

On That Dark And Dread Day On Mount Calvary! 

Father, Without You, I Am Nothing

And

Can't Do Anything!

With You As My Guardian, My Guide

The One Who Causes Me To Live

And

Breathe And Just Be

And

By Your Gift To Me Of Free-Will

And

Freedom To Choose What I Want To Be And Do

I, This Day, Choose To Be What You Said That I Can Be

Which Is To Be Like My Blessed Savior

Jesus Christ The Lord! 

I Choose To Go Where You Send Me 

And

To Do What You Ask Me To Do! 

Lord, Please Help Me Not To Be Presumptuous

By Overstepping The Boundaries You Have Clearly Defined! 

Please Help Me, By Saving Grace

To Stay Under The Banner Of Prince Immanuel

And

Inside Of Your Hedge Of Protection That Is

Your Ten Commandments

The Keeping Of Which Is

The Key To A Happy And Peace-Filled Life!

I Need You, Father

And

I Am Neither Ashamed Nor Afraid To Pray That

I Will Come To Need You More And More Each And Every Day!

I Love You And I Come In Faith In Jesus' Holy Name:

Please Bless Me In My Need And Indeed!

AMEN! 

The Royal Invitation

Everybody Is Energetically Talking About 

Belonging To Ethnic, Economic, And Elite Groups! 

Shouldn't We Be Excitedly Talking About Belonging 

To The Everlasting Father 

Who Extended And Is Still Extending 

An Extraordinary Invitation To All Of Us 

To Become Citizens Of His Eternal Home!?! 

Beloved, 

We, Humans, Are Sociable Creatures 

Who Love To Mix And Mingle, And Speak Of "Belonging!" 

Shouldn't We ... As Committed-To-Christ Christians

Be Talking Excitedly About The Mix And Mingle 

Outfit And Transportation Provided 

Private Personal Security Included 

Celebration Of The Ages About To Go Live 

When The Trumpet Of The Lord Shall Sound 

And 

Life In Time Shall Be No More!?! 

There's Going To Be A Pre-Celebration Blow-Up Blow-Out 

Where Bowing Out Will Not Be An Option 

And

Neither Ethnicity, Economic Status, Nor Elitist Tendencies 

Will Buy One An Excuse To Be Excluded From 

Evil-Angel Exercises And Executions! 

Dear Ones, 

Immanuel Aka God With Us 

Aka Shiloh, Prince Of Peace

Has Hand-Marked Personalized Invitations For Us All

And

White Linen Robes

Jeweled Crowns

New Names

Harps Of Gold 

And 

Personalized Places 

For Those Who Answer His Royal Call! 

Let Us Boldly Dare To Choose 

And 

Walk With Him Obediently And Enduringly 

And 

Belong To The Holy-City Group! 

Life In That Beautiful City Is All Gain!

Peace! 

We've Got To Go Through To Get Through!

By These Very Words

Jesus Christ Disabuses All Those Who Are Relying 
On That Vile Lie Of The Devil Which Says

Jesus' Rapture - Catching Away - Of His People To Heaven 

Will Be Before The Seven Last Plagues Are Poured Out 

And 

That They Will Not Be In The Thick Of The Strife! 

Jesus Christ Is The Word Of God

And

The Word Of God Cannot Lie!!

Jesus Christ Has Asked His Father ... Our Father
To Keep Us From The Evil

And 

We Will All Do Very Well 
To Fortify Ourselves With The Sure Word 

And 

Fire-Proof Our Minds By Constant Praying 

And 

Pleading With The Lord For Favor 
For Faithful Endurance
For Willing Obedience
For Rest In Him! 

Our Lord Jesus Keenly Felt 
The Need To Be In Constant Communion With His Father

And 

This Communion Often Resulted 
In Holy Angels Coming Down To Strengthen Him! 
Our Father Will Do The Same For Us Who Trust Him!

Our Beloved Jesus Never Committed Sin 

And Yet 

He Felt The Need To Pray Constantly!
He Has Lovingly Left A Pattern For Us To Diligently Follow! 

Be Wise Unto Soul Salvation ...

The Probing Question Must Be Asked
And
Honestly Answered:

Shouldn't Rabid Sinners

Even We Who Are Now Repentant-Sinners-Saved By Grace

Recognize Our Need For Help From Heaven 

And

As Clearly Instructed ... As Lovingly Encouraged

Humbly Pray With Passion 

And 

Persistence!?! 

Beloved, 

Let's Not Wait Until Trouble Comes To Practice Praying! 

Let's Make Praying A Potent Part Of Our Christian Practice 

So That Our Default Position 
- When Trouble Does Come -

Will Be Peace Through Praying!

Peace Cannot Be Purchased

Begged For

Nor Bartered With

Because

It Is A Precious Gift

Freely Given To Each Of Us

By The Gracious Prince Of Peace

Prince Immanuel

Jesus Christ The Righteous

The Shepherd Of Blessed Rest! 

Remember, Remember
Don't Ever Forget ...

Pray Persistently 
And 
Practically Plod On To Paradise! 

Redemption Song

Redemption Song

a lie was told

godhood the goal

no death know good from evil

Eve ate the fruit

Adam shared the loot

we're naked but oh, how we feel the knowledge!

garments once bright

lost that great light

excommunion … leave thou Eden's Garden!

thistle and thorn

raise wheat and corn

sacrifice a lamb so you have modest clothing

childbirth in pain

first son named Cain

tilled he the land his sacrifice was not accepted

Abel was type

always did right

sacrificed to God a lamb as was instructed

anger in Cain

killed Abel great shame

vagabond marked no one can ever kill him

so now you see

problems for you for me

original sin we need a savior

third child arrives

Seth by name survives

The Savior comes right down through his lineage

one glorious night

Bethlehem was starry bright

appeared Prince Immanuel the Light of the world

age 30 baptised

age 33 crucified

He'd preached salvation for you and for me

Christ died He arose

He's alive all is disclosed

Coming again for His children living in the Light

keep hope alive

live right and strive

for God's Kingdom coming and a home by and by

pray to the Lord

stay in His Word

He's coming soon He's even at the door

amen amen

amen again

His Kingdom come again and again AMEN **BJC**
