VESPERS AT THE END OF THE SABBATH: 16 11: Imagine That!

KJV Psalms 16:11

11 Thou wilt shew me the path of life: in thy presence is fulness of joy; at thy right hand there are pleasures for evermore.

The King James Bible Came Out In The Year 1611

And 

What Do We See In Said King James Bible In Psalm 16 Verse 11!?! 

A Sure Promise And A Can't-Fail Blessing! 

Will You Dare To Take Hold of The Gift Of The Sure Word

Sure Promise

And 

Sure Blessings Which Our Dear Lord Gives To Us!?! 

Will You Believe The Word

Trust The Giver

And 

Embrace  Aka Utilize The Gifts

And 

Take Profit From Your Blessings!?! 

Beloved, 

Please Get Thee Hence Into The Presence Of The Lord Of Life 

And

Find Your Joy 

And

Stay At His Right Side 

To Find True Pleasures With Staying Power 

Aka The Pleasures Which Are Everlasting

As In Don't Fade

Don't Run

Don't Leave A Bitter Taste In Your Mouth

Scars On Your Heart

Nor Bruises On Your Body! 

Our Lord Is Neither Fairy Godfather 

Nor Lying Magician! 

He Is Almighty God 

And 

He Knows What And Provides All That We Need! 

Dear One, 

Please Give Yourself To The Kind King

And 

Be Eternally Blessed! 

Peace!

VESPERS AT THE END OF THE SABBATH: Do You Ever Wonder What You Are Being Saved From!?!

 

In All That Happens To You

No Matter What Happens To You On Your Travels 

Toward The Eternal City

Never, Ever, Despise The Blessings Of The Lord Christ! 

Beloved, 

When Things Happen To Us

We Are Apt To Cry, Cuss, And Carry On! 

We Never Seem To Wonder What It Is That 

We Are Being Saved From

What It Is That We Are Being Carried Through! 

When We Were Children

And 

We Would Cry About Some Minor Matter

The Elders Would Ask What We Were Crying For! 

Our Response Would Then Cause Them To Say: 

"Stop Crying Right Now 

Or I Will Give You Something To Really Cry About!" 

It Worked Like A Charm! 

Dear Ones, 

Things Can Always Get Worse Than They Are At Present: 

Be Thankful Now! 

Things Will Only Get Better With Christ In Control: 

Go For Grace Now! 

The World Of Sin Naturally Walks In Darkness: 

Head To The Light Of Life Now! 

The Light Of Life Is Jesus Christ The Lord: 

Come To Jesus Now And Be Blessed And Saved! 

Dear Ones, 

Share Your Bread Even If It Is Dry 

And 

Share The Bread Of Life! 

Dry Bread Cast Upon The Waters 

Will Never Come Back To You Dry! 

Bread On Water Multiplies 

And 

Becomes A Soup 

Which, Blessed By The Eternal God

Comes To Your Table 

Seasoned ... And With All The Inclusions

Don't Forget The Dumplings! 

A Thankful Heart 

And 

A Grateful Spirit Make For A Contented Life In Christ 

Who Blesses His Well-Beloved Aka You! 

Keep Walking, Working, Watching

Trusting, Praying, Hoping

Believing, Obeying

And 

Enduring All Things! 

Our King ... Your King ... Is Coming! 

Peace! 

CEMENT: Building The Love Relationship Is Everything!

"If You Love Me, Keep My Commandments! 

Speak Peace! 

Be Kind To Each Other! 

Give Thanks With A Grateful Heart! 

Diligently Seek Me! 

Open Your Heart To Me! 

Pray Without Ceassing! 

Be Faithful! 

Endure All Things! 

Come Unto Me!" 

The Instructions Are Simple! 

The Instructor Is Loving ... Kind ... Divine! 

The Student ... A Servant

Is 

An Own-Way Child

Mortal ... Corruptible

With A Hill To Climb! 

The Stakes Are High: 

Obey

Endure

Keep Faith At Your Core

Give As You Have Received

Pray

Worship And Adore

Walk Through The Open Door 

And 

Eternity Is Thine! 

Will You Lose Out On Your Heavenly Inheritance 

Because Of 
An "I Can't Be Bothered To ... !" 

A "This Is Who I Am!" 

And 

An "It's All About Me!" Attitude!?! 

Our Heavenly Instructor

Our Father

- Our Forever Friend -

Can Be Hurt 
Just As An Earthly Parent, Child Or Friend Can Be Hurt 

But

Our Bad Behavior Costs Us 

Abiding Love

Heavenly Peace

Life Everlasting ... The Eternal Inheritance! 

Are You Following The Blessed Instructions!?! 

Are You Building The Love Relationship!?! 

Are You Walking Through The Only Door!?! 

Is Cement In Your Love 

Or 

Is Your Love Cement!?! 

Do You Value The Love Or The Loot!?! 
Do You Live In Carnal Lust ... The Lie 
Or

In Eternal Truth ... The Life!?! 

Think About It! 

Jesus Christ's Gift To Us

- The Gift Called Peace - 

Is

Perfect!!

The Putrid Pot Of Peas!

Power

Pride

Presumption

Pleasure

Are Four Peas In A Putrid Pot

Because

They Make Otherwise Wise People Believe That 
The Prince Of Peace
The God Of Grace
The Lord Of Life 

Will Not Ever Call Them Out!

We Are Called Christian

Because

We Faithfully Follow The Lord Christ

Doing As He Did
And

Causing The Father To Behold Us In Delight

But

We Fall Short Of The Glory Of God

By Walking On The Wild Side

Doing As Did Lucifer ... Now Satan

The Adversary Of Souls

He Who Would Take The Worship That

Belongs To The True Living

Giving Blessing Kind Holy Eternal God!

Do Not Think For A Moment That

You Can Separate The Love Of Almighty God

From His Justice!

Do Not Think For A Moment That

Satan Is Punished

And

The Lord Will Let You Slide

Just Because You Name The Name

Say The Prayers

And Give Free-Will Offerings 
And Pay The Owed Tithes

Because 

You Will Be Sadly Mistaken

And

For Gross Folly
Satan Will Willingly, Excitedly ... Pleasurably
Carry You On A One-Way Trip

To Death And Damnation

Which Will Never See You Crossing

The Separation Line!

Jesus Christ Is Power

And Yet

He Was Humble!

Satan Indulged Pride

And

It Saw Him From Heaven Tumble!

Lady Eve, King Saul, King David, Judas Iscariot

All Indulged In The Sin Of Presumption

And

The End Result Involving All

- To A Measurable Degree -

Involved Death:

To King Saul And Judas Iscariot

It Plainly States

To Hill Zion

These Will Never Enter The Pearl Gate!

This Leaves Us With ... Brings Us To

Lady Eve ... The Mother Of All Living

And

King David ... Through Whose Line The Savior Of Man Came! 

Repentance Is Good

For The Human Soul!

Brethren, Beloved 

Confession Of Known Sin

And

Repentance Therefor 

Puts You Outside Of Satan's Damnable Circle

And

Into The Safe Fold Of The Good Shepherd

Jesus Christ Our Lord And God

Who Was Lowly, Gentle, Meek And Mild

Who Indulged Prayerful Communion With
And

Who Walked In The Will And The Ways Of
Our Great Father

The Ancient Of Days! 

If You Love The Lord

Keep His Commandments!

Get Over Your Self ...

Humility Is Not A Put-Down

And

Unchecked Pride Is Not A Lift Up! 

Presumption Is Not Profitable

Unchecked Power Is Not Valuable

And

The Unhinged Pursuit Of Pleasure

For Pleasure's Unholy Sake

Is

A Free-Ride, One-Way, Non-Negotiable

Premium Ticket

Through Hell's Always Smooth, Hot And Wide Entrance

To The Burning With Fire And Brimstone Lake! 

Turn Back, Beloved

Before It Is Too Late! 

Don't Be Like Satan

Who Has Sealed His Own Fate! 

Think About It ...

One Great Difference 
Between The Saint Bound For Glory 
And 
The Sinner Bound For Hell 

Is 
The Inordinate Love For Experiencing Pleasure 
Just For Experiencing Pleasure
That Bold Sinners Find Exceedingly Pleasurable 
To The Rabid Exclusion Of Common Sense
Temporal Safety 
And 
Freely Given And  Presently Available Soul Salvation! 

Our Creator God Plainly Told Us What Is Good 
But 
We Are Allowing A Deceitful, Treacherous
Condemned, Damned, Fallen Cherub 
To Tell Us What Pleasure Is
Because
He Has A Cultured Voice
And
Wonder-Working Powers Of Unholy Persuasion! 

Lady Eve Permitted Satan To Convince Her Of 
What Is Pleasant To The Taste
Beautiful To The Eye
And 
Good To Make One Wise 
And 
We Are Still Paying The Price For That Disobedience!

I Beseech Us All, Brethren
Please Don't Pay With Your Skin 
What Your Soul Can't Afford: 
Earthly Pleasures Fade Fast! 

Let's Be Truly Wise: Listen To The Lord

And 

Be Forever Blessed!

A Pig In Pearls Is Still A Pig

And

A "Christian"

Calling The Name Of Jesus Christ

And

Living The Life Of Riley

And

Playing Footsie With Satan

Is Not Ever

Going To Be A Translated Saint!

Learn The Difference

Between Sinner And Saint

And

Choose According To

Your Preferred Final Destination!

Your Choice Is Your Ticket!

Jesus Christ

The Holy God Glorious

The King Kind

The Judge Righteous

Will Direct You To Your Assigned Gate!

HAPPY SABBATH + My Hope Is In Christ The Lord + PRAYER: Father, Please Lead Me Gently Home!

There Is No Point To My Having
A Creator
Who Is The Savior
The Redeemer
My Friend
If
He Is Not Also My Hope
My Help
The Great Physician
The Lord
My God
On Whom ... In All The Changing Scenes Of My Life
I Can Unfailingly
Undoubtedly
Unflinchingly Depend!

If I Can Only Depend On My God
When The Sun Shines
And
The Day Is Bright With Light
Then, He Is Either Not God Almighty
The Creator Of One And All

Or

My Faith ... By Measure
Is 

Good Only As A Boxed And Locked Treasure!

The Eternally Blessed Gift ...

Faith ... To Be Useful
Is
A Faith That Is Tried
A Faith Exercised
On A Hope Not To Be Denied
And I
And All Who Claim To Members Of
The Household Of Faith
Should Be Happy To Be Tried
To Be Tested
And
Proved
So That Our Savior Is Blessed
And
Satan
From Us Eternally Marooned!

Life Gets Real ...

No Body In Their Right Mind
Wants To Be Placed In The Furnace Of Affliction
But
We Who Choose To Walk With Jesus Christ The Lord
Hold To Our Hearts
The Dearly Purchased Promises

And
Hold On To The Marred Hand Of The One Innocent
And
Walk By His Faith
In The Light Of His Life
And
Not By The Sight Filling Our Carnal
Known-Blind Eyes!

PRAYER:

Father,

I Come To You

Because I Believe The Word Is True!

I Give Unto You

My Will

My Way

My Sorrow

And

My Joy

Trusting You Wholly

And

With Faith Unalloyed!

According To Your Word

- You're Not A Man: You Don't Lie -

You've Promised To Be With Me

Though I Walk Through The Valley Of Death!

You've Also Promised

That Neither Height 

Nor Depth

Principality

Nor Power

Can Separate Me From The Love Of Jesus

And, So

I Fall On The Living Word

Trusting You To Be Ever True

Doing For Me, Father

What Only The Holy God Can Do!

I'm Pleading, Dear God

For Mercy

Available Grace 

Forgiveness

Blessing

Guidance 

Ever-Increasing Faith

Peace That Passes Human Understanding

Shelter ... In The Time Of My Storm

A Heart Of Flesh

New Life In Christ

Hope For Coming Glory

Steadfastness Despite Opposition

Wisdom To Let The Lord Lead

The Indwelling Of The Holy Spirit 

The Protection Of The Holy Angels

Equippage To Do The Work Assigned

Victory Over Sin

And

Your Approval:

You Are My God

You Are Holy

You Are Divine

And

It Is My Will

To You To Be Obedient!

With Your Holy Light

Let My Eyes Be Filled!

Please Lead Me Gently Home

Granting Me These Few Mercies

For I Ask All In The Holy Name Of

Your Only Begotten

Jesus Christ The Righteous

My Lord, God And Soon Returning King! 

AMEN.

Decisions Must Be Made!

Satan Exerts Influence Over People
He Darkens The Mind
AND
Incites Men Women And Children
To Do Violence

AND
To Commit Base Crimes!

Jesus Christ Exerts Influence Over The People!
He Enlightens
ANDEnlivens
The Mind!
He Impresses All Who Will
To Do Good Works
AND

To Brethren
To Be A Blessing 

AND

To Be Ever Kind!

Here, Brethren
Are Two Princes
First,
The Prince Of Darkness
The Destroyer Of Body And Soul!
Second,
The Prince Of Peace
Who Gives Life
AND
Keeps Mankind Alive
AND
Now
I Sincerely Ask You
Which Prince
Would You
Do You
Should You
Want
Even Need
To Be By Your Side?!

The Prince Of Darkness
Has A Need
To Build An Army Of Opposition
Against The Holy God
AND

His Method Of Recruitment
Is To Offer Paid Access To
Excitment
Influence
Finance
Recognition
Associative
Emotional 
Dangerous
Destructive
Selfish
Self-Satisfying
Mind-Bending
Cross-Contaminating
Infectious
AND
Ever Only Temporal
So-Called Enormous Yet Trifling
Pretty And False Shining
AND
Dying - Like Himself -
Awards And Rewards!

The Prince Of Peace
- By Great Contrast -
Offers Unto Mankind
Life In Christ Now
AND
Eternal Life With Christ Later
For Being Of Service To Humanity
In The Service Of The Living Holy Ever-Present
He Knows It All 
Can Do It All
Provides It All
God!

In Their Service To Their King

AND

Master
Self-Denial
Is In Part How They Live
AND

Look
Not Given To Displays
Of Gratuitous Acquisition
AND

For Them
Denying Self Is In Answer
To The Lusts Of Manly Living -
They Don't Live In The Land Of
I Want What My Eyes Continually See!

Kindness
Helpfulness
Caring
Sharing
Are Motivations For Each And Every Day
AND
Lest We Forget
That Darkness Hates Peace
They Engender The Acrimony
Of Darkman's Soldiers Elite

Who

Of The Living God

Apparently ... Have No Fear!!

Hatred From The World!
Peace In The Lord!
Comfort Of The Holy Spirit!
Protection From The Fraud!
Mercy! Salvation!
Forgiveness Of Sin!
Hope For Surpassing Glory!
Redemption At The Prince Of Peace's Earthly Returning!

Are Gifts To The Saints Of The Holy God!

Gifts From The Prince Of Peace!

So, What ...!?

The Service

For The Prince Of Peace
Requires Personal Sacrifice
A Thing Foreign To The Prince Of Darkness
Who Demands Sacrifice From Others
Often Even Sacrifice Of Life!

Those In The Service
Of The Prince Of Peace Know
That He Is The Great Exemplar
For
He Gave His Own Life
For All Mankind On The Cross
After
Suffering The Prince Of Darkness'
Most Dreadful Temptations!
I Can Almost Hear The Wicker One's Laughter!

Between Temptation
AND
Crucifixion
Was Where The Prince Of Peace
Healed
Taught
AND
Fed
The Multitudes
Oppressed
Tormented
Possessed

Oppressed
By The Miasma Of The Prince Of Darkness!

He Raised The Dead!
He Restored Sight To The Blind!
He Took The People Out Of The Darkness
AND
Stood Them Up
In The Light Of Life
AND
For Good Measure
Gave Them Of Eternity
A Real View
AND
Encouraged Them
To Reach For The Extended Sheltering
Comforting Healing Hand
To Hold It
To Hold On To It -
That Offer Is Extended
To Me And To You!

But ... 

There Is A Small Price
To Be Paid
By One
By All
Who Will To The Prince Of Peace Cling:

Forsake Sin!
Forsake The Devil!
Forsake The World!
Confess Sin!
Repent Of The Past
AND
Reach Out To Jesus
AND
For Dear Life 
To His Outstretched Hand
Unabashedly Cling!

By His Great Grace ... You Can!

One Cannot Be Double-Minded
Holding Darkness And Light
For
Therein Is Confusion
AND
Assuredly
Soul Blight!

So ...

It Comes Down To The Decision!
Upon Which Side Will You Call

Fall?

• Truth 
• Error
• Darkness 
• Light
• Temporal Prosperity
• Eternal Prosperity
• Goodness With Denial
• Fleeting Things And A Damnation Trial
• Everlasting Life
• Eternal Separation From God
• Feelings Over Facts 
• Destructible Things Now 
• Indestructible Things Later?

You Make The Order!
Sacrifice Now?
Or
Sacrifice Later?

Decisions Must Be Made!
No Dice Rolling!
No Heads!
No Tails!
Conscious Decision-Making
Makes Really High The Stakes!

I Chose!

I Choose ...

Jesus For Joy - The Prince Who Is Peace!

I Emphatically Deny The Liar
The Prince Of Darkness
The Salvation Thief!

In Jesus Christ

I Have Found

My Soul's Chief

My Heart's Peace

My Body's Relief!

Conversation For Two!

I Want To Sing A Song
For My Jesus!
In It Will Be My Heart
Not Theatrics
No Flights Of Fancy
Just Love And Appreciation
Thankfulness
Gratitude
From A Saved Soul's Heart!

I Want A Personal Talk
With My Jesus!
Just A Conversation For Two!
I Will Tell Him All
That I Have Holding In My Heart
But
My Heart Will Be Listening, Too!

I Want To Hold The Hand
Of My Jesus
The Very Hand That For Me Was
On A Rugged Cross Pierced
The Very Hand That Knocked
At My Wayward Heart's Door
The Hand That Did Not Strike Me
Out
When I Did Not Walk In The Straight Way
Preferring At Times
To Walk The Broadway
Alone
Doing My Do
AND
Not What My Lord Did Indeed Say!

I Love My Lord!
How I Love Him
BUT
He Had Loved Me First!
He Is The One
Who Said To My Soul:

Come Unto Me!

Drink!

Quench Your Thirst!

In Love
My Heart Could Just Burst!

I Am Satisfied
With My Jesus!
In Green Pastures
He Leads Me Along The Way
While All Who Choose 
His Name To Deny
Are Falling Away
Stricken
Having Chosen
The Devil's Grand Game
To Play!
I Am Aiming For That Grand Home
Way Beyond The Blue Sky!

I Have Been Foolish!
Own-Way!
Selfish!
Follow-Pattern!
A Listener To Lies!
I Did At Times
The Holy God Defy
BUT
Grateful Heart That I Have
I Can Tell You
Of A Truth
Only The Loving God
Could Save A Wayward Youth!

I Am Thankful
For The Grace!
The Mercy!
The Love!
The Salvation!
The Forgiveness!
The Body Stricken
For Me
Condescending
Because His Love
Was The Only Love 
That Could Me Save!
The Love That Conquered
Hell, Death, Sin!
The Love That Took Me
Out
Of Condemnations Sealed Grave!

I Love The Lord
He Heard My Gutwrenching Cry
AND
Pitying Me
He Showed Me Truth
Exposing The Devil's Gross Lie
AND
All Because Of This
With Confession
AND
Repentance
I, Too
In The Great Day
Will Wing My Way
To The Heavenly Home
Where Repentant Hearts
Forgiven
Have A Permanent Life
AND
An Eternal Home
Because
They Are For Eternity
Saved
For They Took The Offer
AND
Were No More Sin's
Slaves!

Brethren,
My Conversation Starts ...!
My Conversation Is A ...

PRAYER:

Father,

I Love You ...!

My Day Was ...!

My Hope Is ...!

Please Come For Me ... Soon!

Yes, I Understand ...!

Indeed, Yes!

Confession Is Good For The Soul!

But What About The Other Children?

Yes, I Will Prayer For Them

And

Yes, I Will Leave Them In Your Care!

Sometimes, I Get So Weary ...!

Yes, Father!

I Understand!

Now Is Not The Time To Give Up

Now That I Am So Close

To The Promised Land!

Father,

Please Hold Me!

My Heart Is Heavy Today!

I'm Sorry For Doubting!

Sometimes I Can't Feel You Near

And

That Is When The Doubts Appear!

Yes, Father!

Thank You For The Reminder!

I Shall Proceed With Faith

Not Feeling

So That The Devil

Can't

With False Emotionalism

Cause Me To Fall Away!

I Love You!

How I Love!

I Want To Get Home!

Help Me To Be Faithful!

Yes, Lord!

I'll Remember

That I Don't Ever Walk Alone!

Thank You For Your Grace!

AMEN.
