HAPPY SABBATH + Wisdom ... And Understanding Are Free!

... When I Am Hungry I Say, "Lord, Feed Me!"
When I Am Wandering I Say, "Lord, Lead Me!"
When I Am Afraid I Say, "Lord, Shield Me!"
When I Lack Understanding I Say, "Lord, Teach Me!"
So, Pray Tell Me How It Is That When I Am Doing Wrong
I Suddenly Don't Know Right From Wrong
And
Do Not Know Who The Lord Is
Or
That I Should Call Upon Him 

To Help Me To Do The Thing That Pleases Him!?!

Does This Make Any Sense To Any Of You!?!

Almighty God In The Morning 

Is 

Almighty God In The Evening!
The Almighty God Who Feeds 

Is 

The God Who Leads!
The God Who Guides 

Is 

The God Who Chides
And
The Same God Who Blesses
Is 

The Same God Who Is Going To Curse Us
For Boldly Practicing Deceit Before His All-Seeing Eyes!

The Lord God Almighty

Laid Out Plainly For His People

Blessings And Curses

So We Are Without Excuse

And

For Certain Sure

The Outcome of The Path Chosen

Should Never Be To Us A Surprise!

Almighty God Is Faithful
Morning, Evening, Noon And Night!
He Says Plainly Which Of Our Works He Will Bless!
He Says Plainly Which Of Our Works He Will Curse!
He Says Plainly What It Is Of The Works Of Our Hands

That Shall Cause Us To Perish
And
He Also Says Plainly What It Is Of Our Works 

That Shall Cause Us To Prosper!

More Particularly

He Tells YOU ... Upfront 

Who Is Your Adversary
The Very One Who Will Cause To Walk In Wrong Paths
And
To Do That Which Is Evil In His Holy Sight!

God Almighty
Says Call On Me 

And 

You Shall Be Saved!

God Almighty
Says Call On Me 

And 

I Shall Show You Great And Mighty Things
About Which You Know Nothing!
He Also Says
Come Unto Me And Rest!
Trust And Obey!
Look Up And Live!
Believe And Be Blessed!

And Here's The Kicker ...

He Says The One Thing You, Me
We All Seem To Have Great Difficulty Accepting
Understanding:

If You Love Me

Keep My Commandments!

He Says
Follow Me

And
Be A Doer Of The Word Not Just A Hearer Of The Word!

You All Think That A Computer Tablet
Is
The Cat's Meow
But
I'm Here To Tell You Plain
The Tablet That Is The Heart Of Man
Is
The Tablet Off The Chain!

Every Vice Known To Man Is Practiced

In The Stony Heart Of Fallen Man
But- Praise God For The But -
The Lord In His Mercy
Wrote The Law Of Life
His Holy Law
The Moral Law
The Law Of Ten Commandments
On That Tablet Of Man's Heart!
Man's Deceitful, Rotten, Heart!

What The God Of Glory Writes
Cannot ... I Repeat
Cannot, Cannot, Be Erased
Be Replaced

Be Repealed

Nor Rewritten
And
All Among Us
Who, Lying, Claim
Not To Know Right From Wrong
Not To Know The Law Of The Holy God
Will Be Hanging With Satan
When He Does His Swan Song!

Stop Lying To Yourself!
Stop Lying To The Omnipotent God!
You Can't Fool Him!
You Can Hide From Him!
You Can't Stay His Hand
And
You Can't Remove Him From His Throne On High
And
You Shall Face Him At His Judgment Bar
Eventually ... By And By!

Real Soon!

Let Me Put A Fine Edge On It ...

Do Is Do

And 
Don't Is Don't!

Don't And Do Are Prescriptives
Not Suggestions
Not Probabilities
Nor Possibilities

And

They Are Holy Commandments
No Matter What You See Written
On Your PC's!

All That Glitters Is Not Gold ...

Guard Your Heart From Your Eyes!

It Is Appointed ... Once
For Man To Die!

Remember:

Only The Saints Of God And Christ
Will To Eternity Rise!
Don't Let A Lie
Cause You Never To Heaven Fly!
Let Satan By Himself Face The Lake Alone!
Don't Let Him Stay You From Going Where He Can't Trespass

For Sin For Which He Can Atone! 

See To It That To The Father
- By Jesus Christ' Faith 

With Available Grace And Free Mercy -
You Get Home!

Holy Angels Are Watching Over You

And

The Holy Spirit Of Truth ... Invited

Is

Guiding, Teaching, Leading, Blessing You!

PRACTICE, PRACTICE, PRACTICE: One Opportunity ...!

The Family Of The Living God 

Is 

A Loving Community
Made Up Of All The Various Nations' People
So That There Is Complete Diversity
And
All Who Will To Be Forever Therein
Must Learn To Live Together ... Now
With Unyielding Felicity!

You Are Unique!
You Have God-Given Individuality
So Do Not With The World Be In Conformity!
Do Not With The Worldly Indulge Adaptability
Because
For Soul's Salvation
You Only Have One Life
That Is, One Opportunity!

Practice Purity ... Not Vanity
And
In Your Study Of The Living Word
Do Not Indulge Laxity!
Practice Christian Charity
And
Let Your Words Be Few: Speak With Brevity!

If Daily Against Satan You Practice Hostility
And
Make The Lord Christ Your Soul's Priority
You Will Have Eternal Prosperity
And
Shall Inherit Incorruptibility
And
Immortality!

Practice Hospitality!
Become Known For Reliability!
Live Your Belief That Standing With 

And 

Living For Christ
Is Not

A Liability
And
You Shall Know Of A Surety
That The Eternal God's Mercy And Grace To You

Most Assuredly Holds Elasticity!

Deal With Your Brethren With Amity!
Treat Not The Downtrodden With Severity!
Do Not Crave Worldly Publicity!
Speak Truth Always With Verity
And
Set Aside Sin And Self 

If 

It Is Your Desire
To Enter The Eternal City!

Trust The Living God In Your Necessity!
Bless The Giving God In Your Prosperity!
Faithfully Approach The Holy God Thankfully

And

With Unfeigned Humility
And
With The Adversary, Satan

You Shall Never Know Unity!

The Holy City

Is

Our Eternal Home!

HAPPY SABBATH: Who Is Doling Out Your Gold?! + PRAYER: Have Your Way, Lord!

A Pig In A Palace Is Still A Pig!
A Pretty Bird In A Glittering Cage Is Not Free
AND
Having Money To Do Whatever I Want
Go Wherever I Please
With Armed Body Guards In Tow
Is Neither Prosperity
Nor Freedom To Me!

Changing My Clothing Seven Times A Day
AND

Behaving As The Mannequin
With A Personal Photographer
Is A Grand Fail

- To Me -
For
Having To Be Turned On
Directed
Told 

What To Think

With Whom To Walk

When To Talk
AND
How To Say What Where
Is A Sure Sign
To Me
That Beelzebub The Bold
Is The One Doling Out The Gold!

I Do Not Desire
An $8,000,000 Car
A $15,000,000 Dress
A $15,000,000 Pair Of Shoes
A $60,000,000 Birthday Cake
A $200,000,000 House
A 50,000,000,000+ Bank Roll
Dearly-Bought Friends Known Fake
Constant Rest With No Peace
Priests That My Pockets Fleece
Hangers-On Who Frequent Hangover Land
A Boyfriend Who Is Girlfriend Who Lives On Sleaze
NOR
Faith That Curries Favor
Depending Upon
What My Lust Savors!

There Was A Time
When Envy Was An Occasional Companion
BUTI Have Lived Long Enough
AND
Have Seen More Than Enough
To Prefer My Lot
For
Little Is Much ... When The Eternal God Is In It!

When I Lay Me Down To Sleep
I "Draw" The Lord Christ Close As My Pillow
AND
Confidently Give Unto Him 

My Load Of Sin, Sorrow
Joy Regret Fret

Desire
For
As The Able Available God
He Has Not
Failed Me Yet

AND
I Know He Won't ... EVER!

In Jesus
By Jesus

With Jesus
I Can ... Patiently ... Wait
For Wings Will Be My Big Ride
AND
The Water Of The River Of Life
Will Be My Champagne
AND
The 12 Fruits Of The Tree Of Life
Will Be My Caviar!

My Haute Couture Robe Will Be Christ's Righteousness!
My Chapeau Will Be A Heaven's Gold Crown

AND
My Residence Will Be A Custom-Built By Christ Mansion
In The City Of God
Where Birthdays Are Not Celebrated
Because
Life Does Not Wind Down!

My Autobahn
Will Be The Universe
AND
I Shall The King's Face See

AND

I Shall Not Need A History Book Video

Blue Ray CD
For
I Shall Be Ranging Eternity
Ever Forward
Never Backward!
Come On! 

Join Me
AND
Jesus Christ Freely See

AND

Know

Even As Now You Are Known!

PRAYER:

Lord, Most Merciful

"Come Unto Me!"

I Come As A Child

And

Desire That You Teach Me

Blessings Near And Far!

I Trust You, Lord!

I Believe Your Word!

Please Remove From Me

Any Lingering Doubt

So That I Am Not Numbered

Amongst The Unbelieving Goat Herd!

Pity Me - I Am Calling!

Pity Me - Hear My Prayer!

Pity Me - Lift Me Up, Lord!

Help Ever And Always

Your Words Of Light And Life

With Alacrity To Obey!

Remember The Brethren

In The Many Distant Folds

And

As You Have Promised

Call Them Out Of Darkness

Into Your Marvelous Light!

Let The Loud Cry Go Out!

Bid Them: "Come Home!"

Before - For Earth - It Is Night!

Oh, Lord

I Pray That You Will Deny 

The Tawdry Desires Of The Exalted Wicked

By Laying Waste 

The Foolish Wisdom Of The Proud Wise!

Remember Your Children ... Meek!

Have Your Way, Lord

For

To Do Your Will

Is What We Seek! 

Thank You, Lord

For Hearing

And

Thank You, Lord

For Answering Your Child's Prayer

According To Your Sovereign Will

Is My Heartfelt Plea

In The Name Of Jesus Christ The Righteous!

Bless You, Father!

AMEN.

GODLINESS: Real Gain! + PRAYER: Father, Cleanse Us!

Look Around You!
Take The Tour!
God Is Truly Blessing Us
And That's For Sure!

Come On, Letsy!
Surely You Don't Believe
What You Just Said?!

Sure, I Do!
Pastor Says That Visible Prosperity
You Know
Houses, Land, Toys, Trips
Discretionary Cash, Nice Clothes
Beautiful Furnishings
Are All A Mark Of God's Favor!

Okay. Okay.
Nothing Wrong
With What "The Pastor Said!"
BUT
Can You Tell Us
- Me And You -
What Almighty God
- In His Living Word -
Says?!

Well, It Is Like This ...!
The Lord Said ... Says ...!
I Am Sure That The Lord Said ...!
Wait A Minute ... What DID The Lord Say?!
Mercy Me!
I Don't Even Know What The Lord Said!

You Should Hold Your Head Down ... In Shame!

Don't You Read Your Bible?!

Not Really!
There's No Need!

You Can't Be Serious! Why Not?!

Pastor Says ...!

STOP! JUST STOP!!

You Can Tell Me
What "Pastor" Says
But You Don't Know What
The Eternal God
The Savior Of Your Own Soul Says?!

Dear Lord!

This Is Eden All Over Again!

The Creature's Words Have Power

But The Creator's Word

Is A Mere Squeak!

Pity Us, Father!

Who Is Your Pastor Working For?!
Himself Or The Living God?
Or
Is It Possible
That He Is Working
For That Wannabe God
King Fraud?!

Shut Your Mouth!!

I Will Not!

You And I
Are Going To Have
A Coming-To-Jesus Meeting
For
You Have Surely Lost Your Way
And Are Babylonian Sweet Cakes Eating!

Yum! I Like Sweet Cakes!

Yes! I Can See That
But I Am Sure
That You Will Not Like
These Babylonian Sweet Cakes!
Their Leavening Ain't From
The Lord God Holy And Divine
Friend Of Mine!

You're Serious?!

Yes, I'm Serious!
All This Stuff Piled Up
And Your Wayward
Pastor-Inspired Erroneous Thinking
Has The Sulphurous Stench Of Satan
Reeking From It!

Come On!
That's Melodramatic!
It Can't Be That Bad!

It's Worse!

Gain Is Not Godliness
BUT
Godliness ... WITH CONTENTMENT
Is Great Gain!

From The Look Of This Place
And Your Rabid Spending
You Are Not Inhabiting
A Contented State! 

What You Are You Doing Later?!

I'm Doing A Mall Hop!
I'm Going ShoppingI

I Want To Buy ...!
Ohhh, Dear!

Yes ... Oh, Dear, Dearie!

Have you Ever Seen
A U-Haul At The Cemetery Gate
Carrying The Deceased One's Beloved Possessions?!
Or Have You Ever Heard
A Dead Man Speak About
Refitting His House
Or
His Going On Vacation?!

Girl, You Are On 

A Build A Bigger Barn Shopping Spree
AND

It's Not Going To End Well!

How Dare You?!

You're Just Jealous!

If You Say So.

Things Are Here To Make Us Comfortable!
We Are Not To Get Comfortable With Things
For
Things Are Just That ... Things!
No Heart - No Soul
Inanimate - Cold!
Just Like Belly Fat
They Don't Love You
AND
Just Like Belly Fat
The Rush To Grasp Things Will Kill You
Just Like A Cat Will Kill A Rat!

Only Problem, Though
The Inordinate Desire For Things
Will Ultimately Kill You Twice!
It's A Satanic Device!

But Having Things Is Such Fun!
They Are So Shiny!
That New Merchanchise Smell Is Sooo Delicious
And Best Of All

It Makes Me Feel So Very  Prosperous!
Ahhhhh!
The Thrill Of Acquisition!

Lord, Have Mercy

On Your People Today

Who Erroneously Believe That Feelings

And Things Possessed

Will Cause Them To Enter Heaven

On The Great Day!

Letsy ...
How Did You Get Here?!
You Used To Unfailingly Trust God!
How Did You Arrive At This Cross Road
Between King Jesus
And Satan
That Murderous Fraud?!

I Don't Know!
Maybe I Just Got Tired Of Being Poor
And Always Wanting
... Never Having Anything Beautiful ... !

... So You Listened!

Listened!?
Listened To What?!

The Siren's Song!

What Are You Talking About?!

RiCaP!

What Are We Recapping?!

Not That Kind Of Recap!

RiCaP -
Riches!
Cares!
Pleasures!
The Big Three
That Satan Uses
In Playing The Game Of Life
Where The Holy Grail Prize
IS
The Human Soul!

Don't Say That!
You're Scaring Me!

Good!

If You Were Not Being Scared
Then
All Hope Would Have Been Lost
BUT

Your Being Scared Says
You Can Find Comfort
At The Foot Of Christ's Cross!

Mirrie? Can I Tell You A Secret?!

You Know You Can!

Well ...

It's Like This!

Someone Across The Quad
Reported Me To The Co-op Board
And I Received A Warning Letter
That If I Don't Get Rid Of All This Stuff ...!

... Well, It Is Piled To The Ceiling
And It Is A Fire Trap!

... They're Threatening To Evict Me!

Please Help Me!

Tears Followed!
Hugs Pursued!
Prayers Were Sent Up
AND

Comfort Ensued!

Things Are For Comfort!
Things Should Not Comfort Our Souls
For In That Instance
Things - Not The Living God
Get The Worship
Not The Maker Of The Soul!

Look At The People Around You!
Look At The Things
For Which They Do Care!
Look At How And What For
They Acquire Riches!
Look At What They Take Pleasure
In From And For
Each And Every Day
AND
Consider
- For Just A Moment -
Where Jesus Christ Is
In Their Fraught Lives
AND
Decide For Your Own Soul
- Your Own Self -
With Whom
For What
Where
Your Soul's Salvation Lies

ANDIn The Name Of Jesus
Quote
Live In
Live For
Jesus!

Your Pastor Needs Jesus, Too
For 

He Can't Save His Own Soul
Far Less Save Yours
No Matter How Much
In The Great Day
You Boo Hoo!

Now ... About These Shoes
Pots Pans
Dresses Utensils
Glassware Cutlery
Coats Electronics
Lamps Hat Boxes
Boots ...!!

... They've Got To Go!

Do You Wear Any Of These Things
Or Use Any Of These Gadgets?!

Not Really!

Then ...!

... Why Did I Buy Them?!

Yes!

Lust Of The Eye!Check!

Lust Of The Flesh! Check, Check!!

AND ...

Drum Roll!!!

THE PRIDE OF LIFE!!!

You Know What?!

What?!

Confession Is Good For This Soul ...!

... But It Won't Help Us
Figure Out How
To Get Rid Of These Things
This ... This Stuff!

Time To Start Writing The List!!

PRAYER:

Father, 

Forgive Us

For Putting Possessions Before Praise

For Letting Things

Take The Place Of Thankfulness

For

Not Taking Our Cares

To The Ancient Of Days!

Father, 

You Are Our God

And

We Confess Our Sin

And

We Repent Of Our Folly

In Not Studying The Living Word

For Our Own Selves

And

For Letting Our Faith Be Misspent!

Grant To Us

The Outpouring Of The Holy Spirit

Whom You Have Promised

Will Lead Us Into All Truth

And

Grant Us Spiritual Ears

To Hear That Still Small Voice

And

Help Us, Father

To Make The Lord Christ

Our Eternal Choice!

Cleanse Us From All Unrighteousness

And

Grant Us Blessed Mercy

And

Dear Grace

So That

- In Peace - 

We Shall Our Lord's Face

In Whose Name

We Make The Contrite Heart's Plea! 

AMEN.

EASE AND PROSPERITY: Costs vs. Payments!

Suicidality
Homicidality
Mania
AND
Degeneracy
Are Conditions Wrought
In Ease And Prosperity!
Spare Yourself That Fate!

There Is Discontent In Contentedness
AND
There Is Contentedness In Discontent
AND
Ease Brings No Satisfaction
For The Carnal Soul Always Wants More
AND
More

Is A Commodity
Not Bought Bartered Nor Sold
BUT

Lives With The One Careless
In The Care
Of Its Own Soul!

Oh, That The People Of God
Would Recognize
That Real Danger Which Lies Between
Ease
AND
Prosperity!

Oh, That They Would Recognize
That There Is Real Blessing In Trials
For They Do Bring
- If With Grace Faithfully Met -
Real
AND
Lasting
Spiritual Prosperity!

Man Was Never Created

To Live A Life Of Useless Ease!

Of Note
Are Two Cases
That All Committed-To-Christ Christians

Should Know:
The Case Of King David
AND
The Babylonian King
Nebuchadnezzar
Of Old!

Both Were Men Of Ability
AND
Wisdom
I Tell You

AND

Both Were Felled
By True Creature Comforts
Which, Prior
Had Been Out Of View!

Lust Of The Eye
Lust Of The Flesh
AND
The Pride Of Life
Are The Means Whereby
Many A Capable Frugal Man
Has Been At Their Personal Waterloo
Felled
AND
If We Will Take Note
Of Sodom And Gomorrah, Too
We Will Note Of A Surety
That Idleness
AND
Fullness Of Bread
AND
Unkindness
Was What Cast Them All
Into A Visible Burning Hell!

Brethren,
Look Around You
AND
Behold Those Who Live At Ease
No Morals
No Moral Compass
AND
A Surfeit Of Killing Disease!

There Is

No Heart For Another
No Love For The Holy God
A Penchant For Putrid Pastimes
AND
Willing Fraternization
With The Greatest Of All Times
The Rebellious Goat Fraud!

I Was Taught While Still Young
By A Respected Employer
That If You Want Work Done Right
Hire Someone "Hungry!"
Someone Lean
Someone Who Has The Will
For Survival
For Accomplishment

AND
Not Someone Who Had It All Seen
AND
Was "Fat And Flourishing!"

AND
With Nothing Left To Attain
AND
I Took That Lesson To Hear
Added It To My
"Willing To Try!"
- Given By My High School Teacher
As My Character -
Name!

Let's Get Our Priorities In Order!

I Say To All Of Us ...

Beware Of Rabidly Seeking After
Physical Prosperity 

AND

Personal Ease
For
In The Capture
You May Find Your Soul
Death-Dealingly Diseased!

I Also Say To Us All  ...

Approach Getting Into The Living Kingdom
As Would A Shark
Going After His Daily Meal!

Be Single Minded
AND
Act

With Proper Consideration

AND

Zeal!

Prioritize Your True Prosperity
AND
Wait

AND

Faithfully Work Patiently
For The Eternal Ease Of Pleasant Work

- Old Things Will Have Passed Away -

For
Now Is Not The Season
To Be Fat And Foolish
For
Satan Is Waiting
To Savage You
To Cut You Off
From Salvation
By Getting You Prostrate Before Him
To Make You Grovel On Your Knees!

The Love

Of

Ease And Prosperity

Cost

Lot's Wife Her Life!

**--**--**--**--**

The Untrammelled Desire

For

Earthy Ease And Prosperity

Negates

The Need For Jesus Christ

In Your Personal Life!

**--**--**--**--**

Look-Back Syndrome

Will Never Cause

A Sinner

- Supposedly Saved -

To Salvation

To Fly!

Don't Buy The Lost Liar's Lofty Lie!

Prosperous! Really?!

I Had Been Invited To The Meeting!
The Meeting Of The Prosperous Folks!
You Know?!
The Meeting Of The Prosperous Folks
Where They Advise
People With Potential
How To Become Prosperous
AND
Get Away From Being Broke!

The Venue Reeked Of Position Prosperous!
The Set Up Was Prosperously Outlined!
The Attendants Were From Prosperous Is!
The Motto Is The Prosperous Do
AND
Every Participant Was Given A New Pair Of Shoes
Size Not Customized
BUT
Manufactured By
Prosperity Idealized
From A Design By
Prosperity Idolized!

Everyone Was Raging In Raptures!

Suddenly ...

There Was A Mighty Hush
ALL OVAH
As HE Walked Into The Room!
Those Who Saw That God
Squealed 
Screamed
Uproariously
In Pleasure
BUT
My God-Given Common-Sense Screamed
'Tis Devilish!
How Profane!

The Glitter!
The Flash!
The Cash!
Impressive Words
All About The Stash
Had Those Around Me
In Ecstasy
AND
I Feared For Their Emotional Crash!

The More That The Event Unfolded
The More My Spirit Cried Insane
As Every Body Put On
Their New Shoes
That Don't  Can't Won't Fit
BUT
Looked To Be Prosperity Personified
AND
That's When For Me
It All Clicked!

By Any Means!
By Any Available Means!
By Any Means Necessary
Get What Your Heart Desires
AND
Gluttonously Indulge
BUT
See To It That You Keep
Wipe
Your Mouth Clean!

The Call To Prosperity
Is Enshrined In The Model:

Walk In The Ill-fitting Shoes

For

The Obvious Impress

Imprint

Cannot Connect Back 

To The Prosperous You

AND

By Every Available Means

Let Other People's Money

Be

To You

The Delicious Candy Chew!

The Whole Operation Is Sliiicckk!

They Even Provided Sample Candy

Ready To

Blow UP!!

I Get Up To Leave!
I Am Stopped!
I Protest!
He Rises
AND
DEMANDS
That I Speak Up
Out!

He Demands:
What Have You Got Against Prosperity?

I Said:
I Am Already Prosperous!

He Said:
You Don't Look It!

I Said:
My Prosperity Is Inside!
It Comes From The Spirit 
Sent From Christ Jesus
Who In My Heart Does Abide!

There Is A Shocked Silence!

I Say:
My Prosperity Is My Peace!
My Shoes Are Shod For The Gospel Of Peace!
My Faith In God Lubricates My Hope And Belief!
God's Grace Lines The Path I Walk!
God's Mercy Sets My Soul Free!
The Justice Of God Keeps Me Walking Light
AND
Right
AND
Out Of Your Hands
You Wicked Devil!
You Who Is The Consummate Fraud!

Pandemonium Ensues!
AND
I Depart
Not Having Indulged Myself
With
Fleeting Prosperity's
Deceptive
AND
Sickeningly Sweet
Candy Chews!

I Am Standing Firm

In The Good News

AND

Want Nothing To Do With

The Wanton Destruction Of Souls

The Raping Of Widows And Orphans

AND

Those Testifying "Precious" Metals

Which Condemn

Rich Men

Before The Conquering King

The Righteous Judge

The Returning Son Of Man

The Great I AM!
