HAPPY SABBATH + Prayer: Neither Ashamed Nor Afraid To Pray ...!

PRAYER:

Heavenly Father, Kind And True

I Choose To Take You At Your Holy Word Because

It Needs No Reminders About Follow-Up And Follow Through! 

You Are The Living God, Holy, Faithful, Loving

The Ever Blessing God Who Is Not A Liar! 

I Give You Thanks And Praise! 

Lord, I Have Made Up My Mind That

I Want, Need, Desire, And Must Have All

Every Last Gift, Benefit, And Blessing That

You Have Promised Me In The Word Of Truth 

And

Through The Innocent Blood Spilt Because Of Me

And

For Me

On That Dark And Dread Day On Mount Calvary! 

Father, Without You, I Am Nothing

And

Can't Do Anything!

With You As My Guardian, My Guide

The One Who Causes Me To Live

And

Breathe And Just Be

And

By Your Gift To Me Of Free-Will

And

Freedom To Choose What I Want To Be And Do

I, This Day, Choose To Be What You Said That I Can Be

Which Is To Be Like My Blessed Savior

Jesus Christ The Lord! 

I Choose To Go Where You Send Me 

And

To Do What You Ask Me To Do! 

Lord, Please Help Me Not To Be Presumptuous

By Overstepping The Boundaries You Have Clearly Defined! 

Please Help Me, By Saving Grace

To Stay Under The Banner Of Prince Immanuel

And

Inside Of Your Hedge Of Protection That Is

Your Ten Commandments

The Keeping Of Which Is

The Key To A Happy And Peace-Filled Life!

I Need You, Father

And

I Am Neither Ashamed Nor Afraid To Pray That

I Will Come To Need You More And More Each And Every Day!

I Love You And I Come In Faith In Jesus' Holy Name:

Please Bless Me In My Need And Indeed!

AMEN! 

Editing The Eternal God!?!

KJV 1 John 3:18

18 My little children, let us not love in word, neither in tongue; but in deed and in truth.

There Is No Loving And Believing God 

Without Trusting And Obeying His Word 

By Walking According To His Will! 

Beloved, 

We Know The Truth: 

If We Say That We Love The Lord

We Must Keep All Of His Commandments 

And 

Not Just The Convenient, Comfortable, Ones

And

We Must Not Try To Rewrite The Word

Which Means "Editing" The Eternal

When His Will Conflicts With Our Desire

Or Mashes Our Corns

Or Infuriates Our Delicate Sensibilities 

Which Will Negate Our Man-Derived Conception Called 

My Truth! 

Accepting Jesus Christ Means Accepting His Word

His Will

And 

Walking In His Way In All Particulars 

If 

"The Lord Is My Shepherd, I Shall Not Want!!" 

And 

"All Things Work Together For Our Good!" 

Are The Truth! 

Morning, Evening, Noon, Or Night

Truth Is The Same 

Whether We Are In Prosperity 

Or Suffering Through Blight! 

Let's Stop With The Word-Play 

And, Instead

Pray To The Father

In The Name Of The Son

That The Holy Spirit Will Abide With Us 

And 

Lead Us Into All Truth 

While Life Shall Last! 

There Is No Second Chance 

To Make A First Good Impression! 

The Arm Of Man Will Fail 

So Let Us Make Our Lives Matter 

Through Exercising Faith In Jesus Christ The Lord! 

Peace!

The Word Of Almighty God Works!

What Does The Banner Under Which You Walk 

Reveal About Your Present Character!? 

What Are Your Actions Revealing About The Doctrines That 

You Have Chosen To Live By!?! 

What Have You Learnt 

Or Are Learning From Your Lived Experiences!?! 

Will You Stand Up To Being Tested 

By The Law Of Ten Commandments

The "Thus Saith The Lord" 

Or Will You Fail 

And 

Miserably Fall To Self-Destruction 

On The Molehill-Mountain Of Me Myself I And Mine!?! 

Beloved, 

The Word Of The Lord Of Life

The Commandments Of The Creator-God

The Transcript Of His Character

Are Blessings Upon Us All

Against All That Ails Us 

And 

Are To Be Lightly Esteemed

Dismissed, Disparaged, And Denied 

At Our Own Soul's Peril! 

Jesus Christ The Lord

The King Of Glory

Is 

The Great Physician: 

We ... Sin-Sick Souls

Have One Foot And Four Toes In The Grave! 

The Word Of The Eternal God

- Available To All And Healing - 

Is 

The Cure For All Of Our Diseases

And 

A Sure Cure Against The Destruction Of The Second Death! 

We Can't Save Ourselves

And

Our Vain Philosophies Won't Bless Us: 

Only Jesus Christ Saves To The Uttermost! 

Brethren, Beloved

Please Choose To Totally ... Confidently

Surrender To The Lord Jesus Christ 

And 

Enduringly ... Faithfully

Walk Humbly Before Him 

According To His Infallible Word! 

The Word Of God Works! 

Peace! 

HAPPY SABBATH + Prayer For When Hearts Are Burdened 2

 

PRAYER:

Father, Forgive Me!

I Have Gone From Pillar To Post

Seeking A Home For My Heart

Forgetting

Perhaps Not Even Realizing That

My Heart Is Your Home!

Open My Eyes, Lord, And Help Me To See 

Those Fair And Holy Glimpses Of Truth That

You Have Waiting For And Available To Me

In The Volume Of That Book That 

Tells Me Of You And Your Holy Love For Me ... Personally!

Oh, How Often, Dear Father

Has My Heart Been Troubled Within Me

At My Seeming Lack Of Growth

At The Wayward Paths Being Used

By The Children Of Faith

At The Unholy Alliances, Even Confederacies, Being Formed

Between The Children Of The Day

And

The Denizens Of The Night

And

I Cringe!

You Promised In The Living Word

That Not One Jot Or One Tittle

A Dot Or A Dash In The Word Would Fail

Until All Be Fulfilled!

I Know That You Cannot Lie

So I Put My Trust In You

To Accomplish All You Word

For You Have Promised That 

It Shall Not Return Unto You Void, Empty

But Shall Do All That You Ordain!

Father, 

Remember Me, In Mercy, I Beseech You!

As King Solomon Said:

I Am But A Child

Not Knowing How To Go Out

Or To Come In!

Please Grant Unto Me 

Your Wisdom And Understanding

To Use Your Knowledge Aright!

You Promised Not To Upbraid Me

For Asking For Wisdom:

I, In The Working Faith Gifted To Me

Choose To Accept Your Word

As Written And Preserved! 

I Trust You! 

I Am Trusting You! 

Please Help Me To Trust You

Always And In All Ways! 

Please Help Me To Hide Your Word Within My Heart!

Please Help Me To Know My End

The Length Of My Days

So That I Will Know How Frail I Am

And Will Not Sin Against Thee Again!

Father, 

I And My People

Have Broken All Ten Of Your Commandments

Wittingly

Unwisely

Boldly

Even Arrogantly

Uncaring That Actions Have Consequences

Unmindful Of The Reality That

Even When We Come To Our Senses

And Repent Of Our Known Sin

And You Forgive Us Our Sin

And Cleanse Us From All Unrighteousness

That The Consequence 

The Fall Out Remains

The Unintended Consequence Stands

Reminding Us That There Is No Profit

In Bold Sin And Defiant Disobedience! 

Please Help Us To Humble Ourselves

So That You Will Lift Us Up

At The Time Appointed! 

Draw Me Nearer, Lord! 

Keep Me Safe By Your Dear Side! 

Open My Eyes, Lord

To See You And Emulate You

In The Beauty Of Holiness! 

Father, I Would See Jesus! 

I Will Behold His Face In Righteousness! 

I Will Be Satisfied When I Awake With His Likeness:

I Know That My Redeemer Lives

And

That He Is Interceding For Me! 

Please Help Me To Value Myself

At The Price That Was Paid To Grant Me

Your Free-To-All Salvation! 

Save Me, Lord! 

Keep Me Rooted And Grounded

Attached To The Rock That Fills The Whole Earth

In Jesus Christ's Holy And Matchless Name 

I Humbly Pray, And In Need, Plead! 

I Love You, Lord! 

Please Come For Us Soon! 

AMEN!!! 

HEDGE OF PROTECTION: Long Life

The Promise 
Is 
Given To All Who Choose To Believe 
The Word Of The Living God 
And 
Choose To Stay Sheltered Behind 
The Hedge Of Protection Around His People Called 
The Ten Commandments! 

The Promise Is Not Just For Life Now 
But
For Life Everlasting In The Realm Of 
The Forever Blessed! 

Beloved, 

The Lord Used Wisdom, Understanding And Knowledge 
To Set Our Planet Earth
And 
All It Contains
- Seen, Unseen, Known, And Unknown -
In Order! 

This Same Lord 
Has Given Us The Opportunity 
And 
The Wherewithal 
To Set Our Personal Planet Aka Our Individual Lives In Order 
Through His Gift To Us Of His Wisdom 
Which Is Accompanied By Spiritual Understanding 
So That The Spiritual Knowledge Which We Will Acquire 
By The Holy Spirit's Leading, Guidance
Teaching, Correction, And Constant Feeding
Will Cause Us To Fill Our Hearts, Homes, Lives
With Pleasant And Precious Things 
Which Can Never Erode Or Get Old! 

Faith, Hope, Trust, Obedience
And 
A Willing Spirit That Follows After Truth, Wisdom
And 
The Wisdom Of The Truth
Shall Arrive Safely On The Peaceful Shore 
To Stand Victorious In The Presence Of The Truth, Himself
Jesus Christ, The Lord! 

Brethren,

The Illuminated Minds Say That
"A Promise Is A Comfort For A Fool!"
Don't Be As They Are And Be Worldly Wise
But
Be Ye Wise ... Unto Soul Salvation
And
Become A Fool ... For The Lord Christ
He Who, Alone, Blesses And Utterly Saves!
To His Sure Promises
Choose To Say:

"Yes, Lord!

Thank You, Jesus!

Amen!"

VESPERS AT THE END OF THE SABBATH: Ten COMMANDmentS!

We Worship God

BECAUSE

He Is Our Creator!

God's Ten Commandments
Are A Protective Hedge
That Men
IF

They Are Honest
Should - In Faith -
Stand Behind
For They Come
From The Lord Of Love
Whose Shining Light Upon Us
Is Wholly Holy

Divine!

The Divine God Of Heaven
Is The Author Of Life
Provider
Sustainer
Destroyer Of Strife
AND
In His Protection
All
Are Safe From The Fraud
So
Stay In God's Green Garden
AND
In The Great Day
Ascend To
The Heavenly Reward
The Eternal House Of
The Living And Holy God!

The Divine God Of Heaven
Is The Jealous God Of Order
AND
His Character
Is Laid Out
In His Commands
AND
Because He Is Unchanging
His Commandments
Are The Same
For All Men Women Children
In All Earth's Marked Lands!

We Are Not Permitted
To Erase One
Modify Another
Nor Add One
AND
We Are Not Permitted
To Explain God
According To Felt Needs -

That Horse Has Got Broken Knees!

We Are Called Upon
To Believe In And On
AND
Trust God At His Word
To Honor And Obey His Word
Each And Every Day
IF WE SO CHOOSE 
AND
To Not Interfere With Others
Who Choose To Love God
AND
Daily Live
In Peace
With The Majesty Of Heaven
Without Being Wise In Their Own Eyes
As Those Who Foam Out
Their Own Shame!

Be Not Like Cain And Esau Profane!

In Miniature ...

We Would Do Well
To Wonder At
The Human Who Works
For The Earthly Boss
Having Been Made Plainly Aware Of
The Company Rules
By Ear
AND
By Sight
AND
Having Affixed With Own-Hand
His Her John Hancock
Aka Signature
AND
As Well By Voice
Agreeing
In The Presence Of A Witness
To Do All Things Prescribed
AND
Then
In Confidence Of Permanent Appointment
Proceeds
- With Malice -
To Break One!

First ...

There Is A Warning!

Second ...

There Is Re-Education
... Just In Case You Misunderstood!

Third Time ... 
IS
The Last
The Final Time
For You Shall No More
The Company's Glass Door
Walk In
For
You Are Willful
Disobedient
Disrespectful

AND
You Just Don't Seem To Care
AND
Just Because You Know More
Know Better
Than The Boss Man
You Are Put Out
To Set Up Your Own Shop
Your Own Company
In The Darkness
Out THERE!!

Let's Be Realistic ...

Two Roosters Are Never
In One Hen House
Nor Two Bulls In One Cow Pasture!

Two God's Cannot Run One World
AND 
Failure To Comply With The Holy God's Instruction
Is What Let Loose
Sin Sorrow Death
AND
Hell To Come
Upon God's Green Earth

AND
Plastering Men
With Perpetual Chaos

AND
Constant Disaster!

Remember The Curse!

We Are Told ...

In Relation To The Holy God
To Have No Other Gods
Don't Bow Down Before Idols
Don't take God's Name In Vain
AND
Remember God's Holy Sabbath
AND
Don't It Profane!

In Relation To Man

Honor Mother Father
Don't Commit Murder
Don't Let Another's Husband Wife
To Your Heart Appeal!

Don't You Steal!Don't Bare False Witness
Aka Don't On Another Lie
AND
Do Not Covet What Another Has
For
The Living God
For Your Need
Always Supplies!

We
- As The Professed Children Of God -
Need To Understand
God's Ten Commandments
Are Not
God's Ten Suggestions

God's Ten Thoughts
AND
We Need To Recognize
That God Almighty
Has The Final Say
BUT
That We Are The Only Ones
WHO
Can Decide
HOW
We Will Be Remunerated
On Earth's Final Pay Day!

The Ten Commands Show
WHO
To Look Up To
AND
HOW
To Live Amongst
AND

Around
Our Brethen
For Earthly Peace
AND
Heavenly Prosperity!

Brethren,

Did You Sign
In Triplicate
Your To-Heaven Land Lease

With The Pen Of Belief

AND

The Ink Of Faithfulness?

Will You From Willful Sin Cease?

Jesus Christ Is Soon Coming
AND
All Lease Holders
Behind The Protective Hedge
Will Receive
Land Grants ... Eternal
Because
Their Willing 

Willful

Obedience
To The Terms Of The Land Lease
Will Be
Their Faith's Transfer Fee!

Trust God 

And

The Truth Know!

  

Follow Christ

And

At The Appointed Time

Go

To The Land Of The Ever-Living

Where The Ever-Loving

Can Never Grow Old

Nor

Spiritually Cold! 

THE DECALOGUE : For Life And For Judgment

In The Beginning Was The Word
- And The Word Was With GOD -
- And The Word Was GOD -
In Whom Is The Faithful One's Redemption
In Whom Is The Christian's Hope
In Whom Is The Believer's Peace
In Whom Is The Over-comer's Heavenly Reward!

The Word
In His Wisdom
Gave The Words
That Preserve Life!
Four Words
For Our Relationship With Our Father
AND
Six Words By Which To Live With Our Brethren
Without Acrimony And Strife!

The Words Of The Word
To All People
In Total
Make Up The Guide For Life
AND
That Same Word
By Fire On Stone Written
Will Be The Rule For Our Judgment
At The End Of Life's Strife!

There Is A Do
Some Don'ts
AND
One Remember
AND
That One Remember
Will
At The End Of The Age
Be Used To Take Away Our Lives
Because We Won't Dishonor God's Word
AND
With The Damned Devil
Hoot Holler
Falsely Worship
AND
Grossly Play At Pray!

To Make Light Of The Decalogue
Is To Make Light
Of The Living God's Light!
In It Is No Legalism!
No Sting!
Not A Bite!

We Ignore It
At Our Own Soul's Peril!
AND
We Do It To The Dark Lord's Delight!

Let Us Come To Our Own Conclusion!
Let Us Study For Our Own Selves
So That We May Believe
AND
Not Let
Pastor
Pope
Priest
Prince
Parent
Politician
Paramour
False Christ
Nor False Prophet
Determine
AND
Decide
For Us
Where We
Through Eternity's Endless Age
Will Reside!

The Chances
The Choices
The Classes
Are Ever Only Two!
Heaven Or Hell!
Sinner Or Saint!
Saved Or Lost!
Eternal Immortal Life In Heaven With Jesus
OR
Body And Spirit Death aka Eternal Separation From God aka Hell
With You Know Who!

Be An Educated Consumer!
Don't Be A Driven Goat
On A Devil-knotted Rope!

Follow Jesus!
He That Is Meek And Mild!
Follow The Lowly King Jesus
Who For Our Sake
Became A Man-Child!
Follow The Lamb Jesus
Who For Our Sake Was Reviled
AND
Who For Our Blessing
To The Father
Us
He Reconciled!

God Grants Glory!

Satan Secures Slaves!

*********

God Blesses Believers!

Satan's Bamboozles Brains!

*********

God Leads Guides And Carries

AND

Satan Entraps The Unwary!

*********

I Made My Own Choice!

I Am Following The Eternal God!

Now ... CHOOSE:

The Eternal God

OR

The God-Fraud!

Let The Choice Be Your Own!

Exodus 20:1-17 King James Version (KJV)

And God spake all these words, saying,

2 I am the Lord thy God, which have brought thee out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage.

3 Thou shalt have no other gods before me.

4 Thou shalt not make unto thee any graven image, or any likeness of any thing that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth.

5 Thou shalt not bow down thyself to them, nor serve them: for I the Lord thy God am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children unto the third and fourth generation of them that hate me;

6 And shewing mercy unto thousands of them that love me, and keep my commandments.

7 Thou shalt not take the name of the Lord thy God in vain; for the Lord will not hold him guiltless that taketh his name in vain.

8 Remember the Sabbath day, to keep it holy.

9 Six days shalt thou labour, and do all thy work:

10 But the seventh day is the Sabbath of the Lord thy God: in it thou shalt not do any work, thou, nor thy son, nor thy daughter, thy manservant, nor thy maidservant, nor thy cattle, nor thy stranger that is within thy gates:

11 For in six days the Lord made heaven and earth, the sea, and all that in them is, and rested the seventh day: wherefore the Lord blessed the Sabbath day, and hallowed it.

12 Honour thy father and thy mother: that thy days may be long upon the land which the Lord thy God giveth thee.

13 Thou shalt not kill.

14 Thou shalt not commit adultery.

15 Thou shalt not steal.

16 Thou shalt not bear false witness against thy neighbour.

17 Thou shalt not covet thy neighbour's house, thou shalt not covet thy neighbour's wife, nor his manservant, nor his maidservant, nor his ox, nor his ass, nor any thing that is thy neighbour's.
