VESPERS AT THE END OF THE SABBATH: Relevant In An Irreverent World! Really!?!

 

No Christian Can Possibly Be Relevant In An Irreverent World! 

No Christian Can Remain Godly By Partaking Of 

The Ungodly Activities Of Those Who Ignore   

And 

Forsake  The God Of Grace Who Inhabits Glory! 

Beloved, 

Is It Possible to Straddle A Fence 

And 

Still Walk Firmly, Steadily, Confidently On Both Sides!?!  ... To Glory!?! 

Dear Ones, 

Playing Fast And Loose With Salvation 

Is 

To Belly Up To The Trough 

To Eat Blow-Pork! 

Do You Want To Die!?! 

Don't You Want To Live!?! 

Growing Up, We Were Oft' Told The Old Story Of 

A Man Who Didn't Eat Known-Unclean Pork 

But 

Smelt It, Saw It, And Wanted It 

That Was On That Table "Real Bad!" 

His Solution Was To Say His Prayers 

And 

"Christen" That Pork 

And 

Call It Beef! 

What Changed!?! 

What Remained The Same!?! 

Who Changed!?! 

Were The Facts Changed!?! 

Did Truth Become A Lie!?! 

Did Desire Change Reality!?! 

Please Remember This, Dear Ones,

Turning A Deck Of Cards Upside Down

Bottom To Top

And 

Sideways

Does Not Change It To Something Different! 

It Will Remain A Deck Of Cards! 

The Word Of God Is Fixed ... 

This World Is Dying: 

Jesus Christ Is Life! 

Choose Wisely! 

Peace! 

 

Artificial Intelligence Relevance!?!

Artificial Intelligence, Acquired Ignorance

Is 

Costumed Presumptuous Sin Aka One Of Satan's Choicest Weapons 

In His Lost-Cause War Against Jesus Christ The Lord! 

Does Not One's Name Speak To One's Character!?! 

In This Age Of Irreverent Relevance

Let Us Look At The Seated In The Living Room Elephants: 

Please Stop Reinventing Your Morals And Ideals 

To Become One Of The Common Good We Are In This Together Pack 

Because 

Satan The Damned Will Have Your Guts For Garters Aka A Tasty Snack! 

Almighty God Is True 

And 

His Will Is Sovereign 

And 

His Ways Are Good And Perfect! 

Satan Is The Father Of Lies! 

Every Man Is A Liar: 

His Will Is Wayward 

And 

His Ways Are Toward Evil Continually! 

Dear Ones, 

What Has Man Done For You!?! 

What Is Man Doing For You!?! 

What Will Man Do For You!?! 

What Is Man's Can't Lose "Opportunity" For You 

Going To Cost You Now, Today, Or Tomorrow 

If 

You Remain Alive To Talk About It!?! 

Will Our Righteous Redeemer 

And 

Forever Faithful Friend 

Regard It Aka Bless It!?! 

Beloved, 

Jesus Christ Saves! 

Truth Sets Us Free! 

Obedience Pays! 

Endurance For Christ Delivers The Reward! 

May The Living Word Of The Eternal God Be 

And 

Remain Relevant And Necessary In Your Life 

As You Look Forward To 

The Regeneration To Immortality And Incorruptibility: 

It's Personal! 

Our Recreator Is He Who Was Our Creator 

Aka He Who Makes All Things Perfect, And Beautiful, In His Time! 

There Is No Upgrade 

From Perfection Through Jesus Christ Our Lord ... The Life-Giver! 

Peace!

Don't Be A Shooting Star!

 

If We Know Anything About Social Media

We Know That The Influencers Aka The Stars

Live And Prosper Through Subscriptions And "Likes" 

Which Determine Popularity And Profitability 

Aka Success And  Prosperity! 

We Also Know That To Get More Likes And Subscriptions

And 

More Money

The Influencers Lie

Make Truth Turn Corners

Indulge In Downright Ridiculous 

And 

Often Dangerous, Even Deadly, Challenges To Remain Relevant 

And 

Trending In The New Public Square! 

Beloved, 

Are You Playing The Game Of Folly

Blind Man's Bluff

And 

Catch-A-Wave To Feel Good

Be Trendy

And 

Be Important In The Eyes Of Those Who Cannot See 

Because 

They Are Willfully Blind

Deliberately Disobedient

And 

Gainsaying 

While Practicing Deceit!?! 

Stop It! 

Dear Ones,

Let Us Not Forget That 

Only What We Do For Christ Will Last 

And

Ever Remember That We Are Striving Against Sin 

To Receive An Imperishable Crown! 

The Hymn-Writer Plaintively Asked: 

"Will There Be Any Stars In My Crown!?!" 

Well May Each One Of Ask If We Will 

"Wake With The Blessed In The Mansions Of Rest" 

But

The Response We Will Receive From 

Our Loving Lord And Master Jesus Christ 

Rightly Depends Upon Our Work And Service 

By Faith In And Obedience To His Will! 

Let Us Cease From Dead Works 

Loving-Up The Loss-Leaders 

And 

Elevating The Deplorable! 

Dare To Live To Wear The Robe That 

Is 

Eternally Relevant: 

Don't Strive To Be A Shooting Star! 

Serve The King: 

Subscribe To Salvation 

And

Get Your Stars From Our Savior! 

Like Aka Love, Peace!

Shooting Stars Flame Out!

HAPPINESS IS THE LORD'S + PRAYER: Father, My Hope For An Eternal Home Is In Christ Jesus!

NEEDFUL THINGS

It Has Been Said To Man:

You Have A Need!

How Can I Have A Need
If My Self Does Not Know It?
Further, Still
How Can I Have A Need
If I Do Not Recognize Same As Such?

Having A Need
And 

Not Knowing It
Is 

An Awful Shame!
I Must Needs Catch Up!

We Have Wants!
There Are Many That We Say Are Our Needs

And
We Have Needs Which Are Few
Which Turn Into Wants Upon The Right Cue!

The Thing Is, Though
Needful Things Are Necessary
Like Light
Love
Water Shelter Clothing And Food
But 

The Biggest Necessary
On This Here Planet
Is 

For Jesus Christ
And Not As - To Some - A Useful Tool!

MONEY

The Truth Is That Having Money
Does Not Make A Man Happy

And
Having No Money
Does Not Make A Man Sad!

Happiness
Is 

In The Hand Of The Almighty
And 

It Is He That Makes Our Hearts Glad!

RELEVANCE

I Have No Desire To Be
- By Man -
Made Relevant!

I Desire The Love Of My God!

I Can Wait For My Riches
And
I Will Receive Them As Gold

From The Hand Of My God!

I Am Thankful
For Sleep That Brings Rest!
For The Rest That Brings Peace!
For The Hope That Helps Me Cope
And
For The Love Of God That Is No Joke!

PRAYER:

Thank You, Dear Father

For My Blessings Today

And That 

Because Of The Blood Of Jesus

I Can Call Upon You Without Fear!

Bless Me To Be Faithful

Trusting Loving And Obedient, True

So That At The End Of My Journey

And

At The Appointed Time

I Will Go Home To Live Forever With You!

Please Help Me Not To Dwell

Upon The Sorrows And Slights Of The Day!

Help Me To Grateful

For The Day

And

For The Ability To You To Pray!

Bless Me To Hold On To Hope

For Faith

Cherishing The Promises Given

And

Daring To Walk Wisely In Belief

Because I Know

You Are Good Kind Loving

Ever Faithful

And

That In You I Shall Always Find Relief!

Thank You For The Blessings!

Father,

I Can Sing With The Saints Of The Ages

"What A Friend I Have In Jesus

All My Sins And Griefs He Bears!

What A Privilege I Have To Be Able To Carry

Everything

To My God In Humble Prayer!"

Please, Father

Let Not Pride Have A Hold Within Me!

Let Not Arrogance Mar My Face!

Let No Selfish Desire Hold Me Captive

Nor The Love Of This World

Cause Me To Be Marked

For The Consuming Fire

And

Become Known Forever

As A Cast-Off Disgrace!

I Am Available To You, My Father

And

I Pray In The Love Of The Lord

Who To Save Me

Left The Glory At Your Right Side!

Lead Me!

Guide Me!

Teach Me!

Chide Me

And

Until The Great Day

And Then Forever

With Me, I Beseech You

Please Abide!

Please Pour Out Of Your Holy Spirit Upon Me

Granting Me Spiritual Discernment

So That By Your Great Grace

In My Journey To Eternal Life

I May Defeat And Expose Satan

The Accuser Of The Brethren

The Adversary Of Souls

The One Who

- Against The Truth - 

Daily

Does Lie!

Help Me Ever To You

For Help To Cry!

Thank You, Dear Father

For Hearing And For Answering My Prayer

For I Ask All 

In The Name Of The Holy Jesus

In Whom I 

Have A Hope

And

I Have A Prepared Home! 

AMEN.
