Choose To Eat Grass From The Lord Of Life!

When You Are Doing Something Good And Right 

In The Sight Of The Living God

You May Rest Assured That The Lying Leaping Lizards

The Hissing Snakes

The Flaming Arrows

The Sticky Stinky Tar Balls

And 

The Ever-Hungry Vultures Are Going To Be Abroad

On The Wing

And 

In Your Face! 

Praise The True And Living God! 

Beloved, 

When People Who Believe That 

They Should Be Sun, Moon, And Stars In Your Eyes 

Cannot Manipulate You 

And 

Bend You To Their Dank, Depraved, And Devilish Will

Dare To Expect Their Toothed And Edged Weapons 

To Be Boldly Unsheathed! 

Dear Ones, 

Our Lord Christ 

Is 

The Only Trustworthy Constant In Our Lives! 

He Is Not Capricious 

And

He Is To Be Trusted Always! 

Embrace The Gifted Favor Of The Lord 

And

Eschew The Friendship Of The World! 

Do Not Allow Yourself To Be Deceived! 

Committed-To-Christ Christians Should Always Be Able To Say: 

"I Choose To Eat Grass From The Lord Of Life 

Than To Feast On The Damned Devil's Dainties!" 

Do Not Be Unstable Like Water Which Finds Its Own Level! 

Stand Firm On Faith! 

Let's Walk Our Godly Talk

And 

Live Out Our Heavenly Love For Our Blessed Jesus Today! 

Let No One Encourage You To Sin! 

Peace!  

The Living Word Works To Bless You!

What Does The Eternal Word Of Almighty God Mean To You!?! 

What Are You Doing To Keep The Word Of Truth In Your Memory!?! 

When Something Happens To You Or Someone You Know Or Care For

What Kinds Of Emotion Well Up In Your Heart Because Of 

The Perfect Word That Comes Into Your Mind That 

Meets The Then-Present Situation!?! 

Beloved, 

The Word Of The Almighty God 

Is 

Treasure To Be Discovered

Purchased, Stored

Displayed, Shared

Enjoyed, Discussed

Meditated, Loved

Obeyed, Prayed

Rested On

And 

Sheltered Under! 

However, None Of This Will Happen 

Unless Or Until 

We Choose To Believe The Sender

The Source

The Savior! 

We Do Not Have A Good-Time Savior

A Fair-Weather Sender

Or 

A Seasonal Source! 

We Have The Creator-God Sender 

And

The Savior-Friend Source 

Who Are One ... All-Seeing

All-Knowing, Ever-Present 

And

All-Feeling! 

He Who Sacrificially Loves Us

Loves Us Warts And All! 

He Who Calls Us 

Will Regenerate Us To Be What We Were 

Before The Fall! 

He Who Bids Us To Study To Show Ourselves Approved

Is 

Teaching Us ... By The Holy Spirit Of Truth

Who Leads Us Into All Truth

To Know, Understand

And 

Walk Wisely Through And By The Preserved Word! 

Please, I Beseech Us All

Fortify Your Mind With The Word That 

Works Wonders In The Heart Of Man Who Hungers 

For The Food That Is Always Good For The Soul! 

The Blessed Word Of God 

Is 

A Lamp For Our Feet 

And 

A Light For Our Path! 

Remember, Beloved

The Living Word Will Keep You From Sin 

Or

Sin Will Keep You From The Saving Word! 

The Choice To Be Made, As Usual, Is Personal! 

Be Wise For Your Own Self! 

Peace!

THE WORD OF GOD: Hid Treasure!

Unsearchable Riches!
Unspeakable Gift!
The Words Of The Master
The Seeking Soul Does Uplift!

The Gift Is Just That
A Blessed Gift Of God
To All Who Will Receive It
By Turning From Sin
AND
Unto The Holy God!

Blessed Is The Giver!
Blessed Is The Receiver True!
Blessed Is The Holy Word!
Blessed Is The One
That Has The Living Word
With Excitement Heard!

But ...

Brethren,
Be Careful
AND
See That You Become A HearKeeDo!
When You Hear
Keep The Word Safe In Your Heart
AND
ALL
Of Its Commissions
See That You Do!

Do Not Deceive Your Own Self
By Being A Forgetful Hearer!
Let The Word Direct You
As Would A Clear Mirror
So That In The Great Day
You Are Not Irreparably 
Irretrievably Marked
For Eternal Sorrow!

Hear ... The Word
AND
Keep It As Your Perfect Treasure
AND
Do All As You Are Bidden
AND
You Will Live With Our Lord
Forever ... And Ever
For
This Is Our Promised Reward
From Our Savior, Christ Jesus
Our Redeemer
Lord And God!

VESPERS AT THE END OF THE SABBATH: Customized Gods!

The Line In The Comment Said:

"Baal  ... the customizable "god!"

And I Said:

I Gotta Write!

For

This Line Was Just Too Delicious
To Pass Up!

Baal Is The god-Customizable
For All The "Worshippers"
Bend-Pliable
Because
The Eternal God
Unbendingly-unchangeable
Requires Truth
In The Inward Parts
Of All Who
Will Feast At His Welcome Table!

Truth
Purity
Love Of Another
AND
Holy God Charity
Are Not Things Necessary 

To Baal
For Customization
Places Adherents Squarely
In Baal's ThrallAND
If One Is Not Careful
One Will End Up In A Stall
Tied Up In Tight Knots
Unable To Change Position
Even Though
One Has Got The Trots!

The Customizable God
Is A God To One
Free For One

Free-For-All
Which
When The Creator Of All
On The Day Of Vengeance
Stands Above The Ball
Will Show To All And Sundry
Who In Fairy Tales Did Trust

AND

Believe
That
He Wasn't Anything At All!

He Will Show To All

That He Was As Effective As
A Bottle Of Blowing Breeze!

But ...

It Must Be Stated

That This Is As It Should Be
For
A Customizable God
IS Nothing But
Dog Turds
AND
Horse Pasture Patties
Fit To Be But Poor Decoration
As Useful As Cake Flour In The Wind
As Priceless As Salt With No Savor
AND
As Tasty As Egg White
AND
As Beautiful As Crop Blight!

Our God
- The Creator Of All -
Is The God Who Sustains Life Now
AND
Promises ... With Proof
That He Will Give To His Faithful
Eternal Life Later!

For This Reason ...

I Beseeching You, Brethren
Not To Buy A Bill Of Goods
For The Living God Already Proved
That Baal Cannot
The Power Of The Eternal God Withstand
For God
In Baal's Own Grand
Temple
Did Cast Him To The Ground
AND
His Adherents
Putting Him Back On His Stand
Found Him Next Day
Head Severed
Hands Cast Away ...
To Plainly Say That
Baal Is Useless!
He Can't See Hear Nor Speak!
He Can't Hold On To His Own Head!
He Can't Battle For

NOR

Against Anyone Anything
For
He Has Not Got
Working Feet!

A Customizable God
IS
A Not-God Which
It Is Fearful To Declare
Captures Men's Minds By The Satanic Power

Of The Prince Of The Power Of The Air!

This Tells Me Something
AND
Likewise Should Tell You
That The Customizable God
Is A God Of Refuse
For The "Power" He "Holds"
Is From The Lord Of Dung Flies
Who Builds Castles Out Of Crappies
AND
Beautifully Paints Them
With Bold Lies
For He Knows His Time Is Short
AND
His Time Of Terror Is Almost O'er
For The God Of Heaven And Earth
Is Returning
AND
Is Even At The Door!

Don't Collect

The Pay-Check For The Army
That Gives Tissues Of Lies
To Its Blinded Recruits!

Join The Army Of The Majesty Of Heaven
The God Who Does Not Bake Bread

With Pharisee Leaven
The God Who Despises Babylonian Wine
The God Holy, Faithful And True
The God Of Grace And Mercy, Too
The God Who Breathes
Who Sees
Who Cries
The God Of All Creation
Who Paints The Rainbow Of Promise
In The Canopy We Call Sky
The God Who Soon Will Come
To Forever Destroy The Buy-Baal Sellers
AND
Buyers
AND
Take To His Eternal Kingdom
Those
Who Bought The Truth
AND
Sold It Not

Nor His Holy Ways Forgot!

Get Yourself The Real God!
Get The God Who Laid Down His Own Life
For Me

AND

For You
AND
Picked It Up Again
So That You And I
Against It
Can Make Upholdable Claim!

Get Jesus!
Get Almighty God!
Get Jesus Christ
AND
Forever
Get Rid Of That Fraud Satan
AND
His Front-Man Baal
That Totally Customizable
AND
Totally Useful-For-Nothing
Dust-Catcher

Soul-Benighting

Have-No-Hope-To Be-God

Fraud!

FAITH : Education vs. Learning! + PRAYER: Oh, Lord, You Are My God!

Did You Know
That It Is Possible
To Be Thoroughly Educated On A Topic
Without Having Learned Anything Viable On The Matter?

Have You Ever Truly Observed An Old Saint
Handling The World
AND
Dealing Deftly
Humbly
With Word!

What Have You Seen?

Here's What I See:

The Difference
Between An Educated Christian
AND
A Learned Christian
Is
One Knows Of Himself That He Is A Saint
AND
One Knows That He's A Sinner Saved!

Educated Christians
Have An Intellectual Knowledge Of Jesus
Copied
From The Opinion
Of A Man
Who Wrote ... A Thesis!

Learned Christians
Have An Experiential Knowledge Of Jesus
Born Of Trials Overcome
Through Their Belief
AND
Faith
In The Written
Inspired
Preserved Promises Of 
The Holy God!

A Learned Christian
Personally Knows 
His God And Savior!

An Educated Christian
Knows Of
AND / OR
Knows About
The Holy God
And The Professed Savior!

I Do Not Make This Distinction Lightly!
Look Around!

Education Has A God Of The Head!

Learning Has The God Of The Heart!

The Educated Christian Rationalizes
AND
Studiously Qualifies
Faith 
AND
God
In Relation To His Life!

The Learned Christian Recognizes
AND
Steadfastly Accepts
The Holiness
AND
Sovereignty Of God In His Life!

They Cannot Both Be Right!

So ... What Does God Say?

Trust In The Lord ...!

Believe In The Lord ...!

Have Faith ...!

Blessed Is The Man

That Walks Not

In The Counsel Of The Ungodly ...!

The Man Who Allows Education
To Sway Him
From The Path Of The Pure Faith
Of The True Gospel
Trusting In Feeling
AND
Indulges Intellectualizing Of
Godly Fear 
AND
Christian Belief
Is On A Very Slippery Slope
Climbing A Smooth Mountain!
For Such A Man
- Without Repentance -
There Is No Relief!

Where Do You Stand?
Upon The Rock?
OR
Upon A Textbook?
Upon Jesus The Christ
OR
Upon The Word Of The Author
Who Writes Of Jesus Christ Using A Sliding Scale
OR
Rule?

Work Out Your Own Soul's Salvation!
AND
Watch Out
For ...

PRAYER:

Heavenly Father,

I Come Before You As A Child

Needing Direction

Correction

Protection

And

Salvation!

Help Me Not To Permit Myself

To Be Cheated Out Of The Promise

- Written In Blood In The Holy Word -

By The Premise Which In The Scholarly Book

Written By A Mere Man Who

- With You -

Is Not In Accord!

You Are My God!

- You Are Holy!

You Are My Father!

- I Listen To You Solely!

I Walk In The Faith Of Jesus!

- He Is The Conquering King!

Lift Me Up, Lord

And

Lead Me

For

I Desire On The Glorious Shore

To One Glad Day

Go Walking!

Help Me, Lord

To Trust You

To Honor You

To Obey You Without Doubt

For

I Look Forward To The Bestowal

Of Your Promised Rewarding

When

- In The Day Of Jubilee -

My Jesus

- In Peace -

I Shall See!

Oh, How I Will Praise And Shout!

I Love You, Lord!

Have Mercy And Bless

For

In Jesus Christ's Holy Name, I Stand And Plead!

AMEN.

VESPERS AT THE END OF THE SABBATH: Learning God By Loving His Word! Loving God By Learning His Word! + PRAYER: Lord, Please Bless My Memory!

If I Bury God's Word
In My Heart
Then Sin Con't Bury Me
So
With Malice
I'm Going On A Journey!
Please, Won't You Travel With Me?

I Have Been Studying My Self
To See How It Is That I Learn
Those Things That Are Important To Me
AND
Since Learning God's Work
Is The Ultimate Of Things
To Be Learned
I Am Seeking To Arm My Self
With The Word!

Jesus Christ
Routed Satan
With A: 

"Thus Saith Lord ...!"

AND
If That Was Good For Jesus
To It
I Am Attaching My Cord
For
There Is A Final Examination Coming
- No Deferrals!
- No Re-do's!
AND
A Failing Mark Means, Dear Ones
No Wings In Salvation
For Neither Me
Nor You!

THEREFORE ...

I Am Taking The Position
That Since I Can Absorb
Worldly Rubbish
AND
Recall It
At Will
I Should
- With The Alacrity Of Necessity -
Absorb
Imbibe
Digest
The Living Word Of God
To My Fill!

I Shall Read
For Pleasure
For Profit
For Comfort
For Food
For Truth
AND
I Shall Read
With A Terminal Point In View
So ...
How About You?

I Shall Endeavor
To Focus
On One Text Each Day
Even If It Just Says:

"Jesus Wept!"

I Shall Dwell On It
Throughout The Given Day!
I Shall Lift It Up!
Examine It!
Says The Words
So That There Is Mouth Feel!
I Shall Hold It To My Heart
AND
Lovingly Caress It
Until It Pierces My Heart
Like Honed Steel!

I Must Pass My Examination!
My Study Material
To Me
Must Be Alive!
I Must Understand Him
Of Whom
I Am Learning
For 
To Know Him
Love Him
Trust And Obey Him
Is To Enter
Into Eternal Life!

In The Beginning,  God ...!
In The Beginning Was The Word, And ...!
At The End
The Alpha
The Omega
Shall Say The Word's Final Word
AND
I Am Endeavoring
By God's Grace
To Be In The Sheep Flock
AND
NOT
In The Goat Herd!

I Shall Test My Mind
AND
By Beholding
I Shall Be Changed!
It Shall Be Sublime!

That Which I Learn Today
I Shall Write In My Notebook
From Memory
Tomorrow
AND
Before I Start
The New Day's Study And Contemplation!

I Pray God For
Sincere, Abiding Love Of His Holy Word
Steadfastness In Learning His Revealed Truths
AND
Diligence In Executing My Plan Of Study
So That With Him
I Shall Be In Accord!

Please Join Me!
I Am Rooting For You!

PRAYER:

Father,

I Come To You

Seeking Your Blessing

On My Memory!

I Am Today

Committing To Learning Your Word

So That I May Bury It Deep In My Heart

Against The Day

When There Is A Famine

- Not Of Food -

But Of Hearing The Truths About You!

Help Me, Lord

To Diligently Study!

Help Me, Lord

To Studiously Tax My Mind!

Help Me, Lord

To Hold On To Your Word Strongly

For

I Know That It Is My Lifeline!

I Bless You, Lord

For Answered Prayer

And

For Knowing Before Hand

What Request I Would Make

And

For Having A Ready Blessing

Because I Am Seeking To Do Your Will!

Lift Me Up, Lord

So That I May Lift You Up High

And, Please

Draw All The Children Closer, Lord

For We Depend On Only Thee!

I Love You, Lord!

AMEN.

STOP DABBLING: The Sulphurous Stench Of ... Sin!

Dibble Liked To Dabble
On The Borders Of Sin
Until The Day He Dribbled
AND
His Ball
Into Sin's Hoop
Did Go In!

Properly Stunned!
Emotionally Shocked!
Evidently Elated-Flabbergasted!
Dibble Tried To Dribble In Reverse
AND
That
Is When He Saw For Himself
That Dabbling With
Near
AND
Around Sin
Will Always
- When Least Thought-Expected -
Inevitably Lead
To The Thing Called
The Curse!

Hey, Nurse? How Do You Reverse A Curse!"
How Does One Put A Curse In Reverse!

Pray! Pray!
Back Back!
Back Away!
Turn Around!
Confess!
Repent!
AND
Never Walk That Way Again!
Trust Jesus!
Trust Jesus At
AND
Obey
His Word
AND
Your Life 
Will Be Bettered
AND
Cannot Be Made Worse!
Thereby
Is The Curse Reversed!

Dibble Was Good
For A While
BUT
Paradoxically
Dibble Again Dabbled
AND
Dabbling Dibble
Bit The Bait
AND
Don't You Know
The Unexpected 
BUT
Projected Result Was Achieved
AND
Dabbled-Out Dibble
At His Current Condition
Did Cry
AND
Wheeze And Sneeze!
He Had Snot All Over His Face!

Dibble?!
Dibble?!
Dibble?!
Why Did You Dabble In Sin ... Again?!
Did You Not Learn The First Second Lesson?!
Were The Words To You Vain?!
Don't You Understand
That Breaking Wind In The Wind
Leaves A Stench Undeniable
Marked With Sulphur
That Makes Eyes Run Water
Leaving You
For The Gross Crime
Liable?!

Accountability

Does Not Any Man Trust!

Accountability

Exacts Payment!

There's No Credit!

Cash On The Barrel Head

On The Payday

Is A Must!

One Does Not Play With Sin
AND
Walk Away
Unscathed
For
Playing With Sin
Is Like
Playing With Tar In White Pants!
It Always Leaves
A Big Black Mark
Small
Medium
Large
Always Evident
Indelible
Until
The Sin Cleaner's
Cleansing Flow
Floods Your Heart
AND
Takes Charge!

Soooooo ...
What Can Wash Away My Sin?!

All Together Now:

"NOTHING ... But The Blood

Of Jesus!"

Sooooo ...
What Can Make Me Clean Again?!

NOTHING ... But The Blood

Of Jesus!

Oh, Lead Me To The Flow!

I Want To Be White As Snow!

I Don't Want Sin's Scarlet Anymore!

I Desire The Cleansing Of The Blood

That Comes From

Holy Jesus!

Lord,

Save Me Now!

Help Me To Stop Acting Like

A Free Ranging Cow

Always Eating Feed Like A Breeding Sow!

Lead Me To Safe Refuge!

Lead Me, Lord!

Lead Me Now!

AMEN!

***********

There Is Nothing

Trivial

About Sin!

There Is Nothing

Blessed About

For One's Own Sin

Paying!

So,

Think On Jesus Christ!

To Your Heart

Let Him In

And

Your Very Own

Personal Victory

Over Sin

Is

A Winning Undertaking!!
