IMPULSIVE LIVING: Explicit Faith

Just As Impulsive Buying 
Can Get You Into Debt Higher And Higher

So Can Impulsive Living 
Land You In Damnation's Lake

Burning With Brimstone And Fire!

Every Human 
Every Christian ... Of Faith Great Or Small

Started His Journey With The Sin Nature

Compliments Of 
Adam And Eve's Fall From Grace Sufficient

To Of Needing Mercy Free

And That, Beloved

Means Me And Thee!

We Must Not Be By Impulse Driven

For We Have A Sure Word

By The Lord Of Live Given

And

All We Need To Do 
Is 
To Believe And Obey

And 
Walk In The Light Of Life

Trusting God Every Day

And

Always In All Ways!

That's Easy For You To Say! 

It Sure Is! 

King David Said It First! 

Listen To What He Says

And

Remember That The Lord Kept All Of His Word To David

In The Person ... In The Incarnation Of 
Our Very Own Jesus Christ!

The Word Of The Lord 
Is Not 
"Comfort For Fools!" 

The Word ... The Living Word
Is 
A Negotiable Instrument 
"Cash Money"
Good In Every Situation, Stage, And Phase Of Life 
For Us Who Choose To Believe That 
Jesus Christ Is Real 
And That 
He Loves Us Sacrificially, Personally
Intimately 
And 
Eternally! 

The Lord Cannot Lie ... Nor Does His Word
And 
I Encourage Us To Get To Know The Word That 
Speaks Life
Provides A Reason To Get Out Of Bed Each Day
Gives Hope For A Future With An Expected End In Glory
And 
Points The Way Home To The Father ... Our Father! 

We Are Christians 
And 
We Have The Right ... And The Privilege 
To Boldly Appear Before The Throne Of Grace 
With The Unfailing Word Of God 
To Present To Him To Gain Approval For Our Requests 
For His Comfort, Aid, Provision, And Protection
And 
Also As The Reason For Giving Him Worshipful Praise 
And 
Grateful Thanks! 

The Lord Must Honor His Word To Us That 
Causes Us To Believe, Trust, Hope 
And 
Wait On Him: 
Our Obedience To His Word ... By Doing His Will 
Guarantees Our Blessing! 

Beloved, 

This Is The One Time When 
"Throwing" A Person's Word Back In Their Face 
Is 
A Good Thing! 
Be Bold, Be Brave ... Believe
And 
Humbly Ask The Lord To Deliver For You! 

Stand On The Sure Promises Of God: 
He Is Faithful So Dare To Prove It! 

HAVING HOPE AND FINDING JOY: Seeking After Christ Jesus!

What's There To Be Happy About

When There Is Much About Which To Sad!?! 

What's There To Have Hope About 

When We See Nothing About Which To Be Glad!?! 

My Dear Friend

You Are Way Too Young To Be So Cynical ... So Jaded

And

Have Too Much To Look Forward To

To Have The Doings Of The Wicked World
The Happenings In This Vale Of Tears 

To Cause The Light In Your Life To Become Muted ... Faded! 

When We Look In

Look Around

Look About 

And

To The Ground Stare Down

We Neglect To See

The Bright Shining Light Of Holy Life

Who Is Even Now Calling 

Beckoning

To You And To Me! 

Our Lord Has Said:

Look Up! Your Redemption Draws Nigh!

He Has Also Said:

Trust Ye In The Lord Forever!

Buy The Truth And Sell It Now!

Don't Worry!

Don't Doubt!

Believe The "Thus Saith The Lord!

Your Redemption Is Coming Down!

Do You Believe Him

His Word

His Promises!?! 

Yes, I Do But ...! 

... Stop Yourself Right There! 

Butting Is For Own-Way, Hard-Ears, Goats!

You Are An Obedient Sheep ... Yes!?!

Yes ... Yes! I Am Being ... Striving To Be Obedient!

If That Is Indeed The Case
Please Hold Fast To The Cross Of Christ

And

Listen Very, Very, Carefully

As I Share Psalm 119 Verses 49 And 50:

We Have The Promise From The Lord That
He Will Never Forget Us
So Do Not Fear ... Do Not Indulge In Ungodly Fear!

Beloved, 

We Do Not Walk Alone

Nor Are Left Alone

To Strive And Survive On Our Own!

If We Were Truly Left On Our Own
We Would Be Left To Trust Clouded, Lying, Carnal Eyesight
But

We Have An Infinite God With Eternal Sight
And
We Have An Anchor, A Hope, For Our Souls

In Jesus Christ ... The Rock Of Ages! 

Please Consider That The Person Who Has No Hope 
Will Willingly Destroy Others ... And Themselves 

But 

We Who Choose To Believe The Living Word Of 
Jesus Christ The Righteous

- The Lord Of Earth And Glory - 

Have Our Patient Waiting Embossed With

And 

Embalmed By

Truth That Preserves The Believing Soul From Despair 

And 

Hopelessness! 

Beloved, You Are Greatly Beloved
And
Because Of The Sacrificial Love Poured Out On Us

We Wait On Our Lord Christ With Hope 
Because 

We Believe That He Is A Truth-Speaking

Promise-Keeping

Heart-Cleansing

Life-Preserving

Future-Holding

God Of Love Granting Grace 

Who Has Mercy For Each One Of Us Personally! 

Do You Believe This!?! 

Yes, I Do!

Do You Believe It In Your Head 

Or Your Heart!?!

Do You Believe It Intellectually, Emotionally
Philosophically 

Or Aspirationally For Love Of Our Lord!?! 

I ... I ... I Never Really Thought Deeply About It ...!

... And That, My Dear Friend, Is Where Trouble Starts!

Faith In Jesus Christ

Walks A Straight Line!

We, As Christians, Cannot Permit Man's Philosophising
And
Crass Emotionalism
And
Intellectual Gymnastics
To Dictate How We Feel Our The Living God!
Everything To With Our Holy God
Is
By Faith Which Comes From Trusting The Holy Word
Which Is A Transcript Of 
The Character Of The Eternal God Whom We Worship
And
By Our Choosing To Experience The Lord
According To The Preserved Word!

The Lord: The Same

Yesterday, Today And Forever!

By Jesus Christ ... Alone
We Live And Breathe 
And 

Have Our Being! 
Please Remember Whose Child You Are
And
Look Up!

Please Keep Hope For Health And Heaven Alive
By Keeping Your Heart Fixed On Christ Jesus 

Who Alone Heals, Saves, And Seals
And
Always Reveals His Way To His Believing Children!

Keep Your Holy Faith Bolstered: Pray On! 

PRAYER : Lord, Please Let Your Sure Word Move Me!

Lord,

All Around Are Books

Writings

Teachings

Purporting To Offer Advice Sound

Yet Giving Place To The Ways Of The Devil

And

At Your True And Living Word

Causing The World To Greatly Frown!

Father, Please

I Am Asking You

To Help Me To Look

Ever And Always

At The Lord Christ

To Trust The Promptings Of The Holy Spirit

And

To Let You Have Your Way With Me

In All And Everything!

Please

Let The Holy Angels Attend

To Influence Me For Good
And

Let My Heart

Be The Place Of Thy Throne

Where The Holy Spirit Holds Sway

So That I Am Not Left

With A Heart Of Cold Stone!

Father,
Let Me Be Enamored
And
Engrossed

To Walk Into Love

With The Word Of Truth!

Guide Me To Take Heed

To The Clear Warnings

The Admonitions

That I May Live And Not Die!

Let Me Bask In Your Love
For
I Desire To See
And
To Have The Right
To Enter Into That World
Where One Never Cries!

Lord,

Let Your Sure Word Move Me

And

Strengthen Me

Root Me
And

Ground Me

To Believe

And

To Trust The Promises

In My Walk With The Lord Christ

So That My Life Is A Delight

A Blessing To My King

A Help To My Brethren
And

To You, Lord

A Fragrant Offering!

Let Me Walk!

Let Me Talk!

Let Me Live

By The Book

So That In
The Coming Day Of Vengeance

Salvation Is Sure

For Jesus Is The Word

The Word Is The Door

The Door Is God
And
God Is Eternal
And

The Eternal God Promised Me

Eternal Life

In Eternity

And
I Desire To Receive My Blessing!

Please, Lord
Remember The Humble

The Poor And The Meek!

Lift Up The Fallen

And

Bless Those Who

The Eternal Kingdom Seek!

Comfort The Sorrowing!

Provide For Those Who Have Nothing To Eat
Whether It Be
For Spiritual Or Physical Nourishment!

Teach Those Who Are Searching
For God's Truth
And

Let Not The Wasters

In Our Lives Havok Wreak!

Humble The Proud

The Arrogant

And
Those Who Seek

The Lives Of The Children Of The Day

 - The Citizens Of The Kingdom Of Light -

To Daily Render Bleak!

Bless Us To Do Thy Will

Even Though Self Says "No!"

And
Help Us

Lord, Help Us

In The Faith Of Christ To Grow!

Keep And Save Us

Is My Humble Plea
And
I Ask All

In The Only Name That Matters

The Name Of
Jesus Christ The Righteous!
Oh, How We Love You, Lord!

AMEN.
