Redeeming Love, Redeeming Blood: GRACE!

I Was Walking Down The Lonely Road!
I Was Scared: Someone Was Following Me!
Deciding To Be Brazen, I Turned
And
Who It Is
You Will Never Believe!

But, You Should!

I Didn't Have To Ask For A Name
A Rank
A Serial Number
For It Is Grace
Who Is Following Me
Because
For Almighty God's Favor

- Which I Do Not Merit -
I Have The Immense Need!

I Personally Know This!

Don't Doubt It!

I Have No Claim To Grace
The Favor Of God
Except As Found In My Need

And
I Am Amazed At Undying Love
For Which There Is No Possible Creed!

Grace ... For The Day
Grace ... For The Way
Grace ... Provides
Grace ... Satisfies

And
Grace ... Permits The Acceptor
The Damned Devil To Defy!

Almighty God's To Us Is No Lie!

Grace ... Lifts Me Up To God
Grace ... Sets Me On My Feet
Grace ... Puts Food On My Table
And
Grace Sees To It That I Breathe!

Breath Does Not Come From Satan

The God-Fraud!

I Am Walking To Zion
And
I Am Going To Get There
Even I If I Go There Alone!

I'm Telling You About It!

The Decision To Go There Is Your's Alone!

Grace, Grace
The Grace Of The God Of Heaven
Is
The Great Blessing
Purchased For My Kind And Me
When Jesus Christ The Righteous
Saw Fit To Stay Put
On The Cross Of The Cursed
That Dark Day On The Hill Call Mount Calvary!

I Do Not Deserve Grace: I Desire It!
I Do Not Deserve Love: I Depend On It!
I Do Not Have A Personal Truth
I Live In The Truth Of The Rock Of Ages
And
By The Grace Of The God Of All Grace
I Will Not Turn Aside 

To The Spurious Truth Of Those Who
Call Themselves The Great Sages!

I Thank The Living God

The God Eternal

The Blessing, Holy, God

That I Can Come To The Throne Of Grace
For, There ... Nothing Wavering
I Know That I Will Find Help
In My Time Of Need!

Thank You, Father

For Ever-Present Grace

And

Soon-Coming Glory! 

Thank You, Dear God

For The Good-News Gospel Story! 

Thank You For My Daily Portion

Purchased With Innocent Blood

And

Thank You For The Daily Flood

The Flood Of Redeeming Love!

In Jesus Christ's Holy Name, I Pray!

AMEN.

Doubt! Pedestrian Doubt!?!

Whatever You Do
Do Not Open The Door!
Do Not Let Him Her Whatever It Is
Into The House Of Your Heart!

Don't Let Who Or Whatever In ...!?!

... I Didn't Know My Heart Had A House!?!

Do Not Let In The Evil Guest!

The Evil Guest!?!
You Don't Mean Who I Think You Mean!?!

Who Do You Mean!?!

I Mean The Big Cheese!
Old Satan Himself!
Everybody Knows To Keep Him Outside!

That's Not The One!

Then, Who!?!
Who Is, Who Else Could Be, The Evil Guest!?!

You'll Never Believe Who It Is!

Come On! Out With It!

Doubt! Pedestrian Doubt!

You Mean That Two-Faced
Double-Minded Everything Wavering
Driven By The Sea
Tossed About By Circumstances ... Doubt!?!

Yup! That Would Be The Farcical One!

If Only You Knew How Much I Hate That Villain
Always Sucking Up To You
Stoking Your Fears
Stroking Your  Vanity
Lifting Up Self
Putting Down Faith
And The Horror Of It All
Calling The Word Of Truth
The Word Of The Eternal God Into ... Doubt!

Come Closer, Guys!
I Used To Have A Serious Problem 

With That Wretch Pedestrian Doubt
Who Was Always Under Foot ...!

... You Mean Always Under Skin ...!

... You Mean Always On The Mind!

We Are All Right!
It's In Your Face
In Your Bed
At Your Job
In The Church

AndIn Your Relationships Vertical And Horizontal!

Bottom Line Is That Pedestrian Doubt Was
Is Everywhere

But

I'll Tell You This Much:

I Found The Secret

And
It Is ... Choice!

Choose Hope Over "I" and Change Everything!

Choose To Believe The Word Of God
Because
It Is The Word Of God!
Trust Almighty God When You Can't Trace Almighty God!
Look Up ... Not In!
Remember The Shepherd!
Remember The Rock!
Remember The Sheltering Wings!
Remember The Savior Whom The Father To Us Gave!
Remember The Holy Spirit Who Came In The Savior's Name!
Remember The Holy Angels Who Protect And Influence Us To Do Good

And
Remember The Light That Shines
Because
Salvation In Our Hearts Did Flood!

Remember This Truth ...

Doubt Cannot Reign

Where The Holy Spirit Rests

And

The Holy Spirit Cannot Rule

Where 

Doubt Makes Its Nest!

Brethren,

We Are Christ-Believers
And
Infinitely Blessed By The Gifts Of The Eternal Holy God!

If We Are Honest

It Is Plain To All Who Will The Truth See That 

Doubt, Pedestrian Doubt
Is 

A Vile Present
Offered By The Gross Enemy!

Any Present From Satan And His Sort
Is Sure To Be A Curse! 

Jesus Christ Died To Reverse The Eden Curse
So Stay Away From Him Who Curses
Him Who Exists To Destroy
And 

Lean Avidly On The Lord Of Life
Who Gives Us Life Everlasting
And
Joy ... Unalloyed!

Preach, Preacher!!

Doubt Thrives

On That Which Fills

The Carnal Eye!

**--**--**--**--**

Faith Thrives

On The Hope That

The Grace Of The Lord Jesus Christ Supplies!

The Lord Is My Shepherd!?!

The Choir With The Attending Soloist
Had Sung ... Beautifully:

The Lord Is My Shepherd

I Shall Not Want!

Many Hearts Were Blessed
But
One Young Person
Laughing Out Loudly
Commented:

The Lord Is Not My Shepherd For I Am Not A Sheep!
Five Others Agreed With Him!

One Other Person Said:

The Lord Is My Shepherd
I Shall Not Lack Health Nor Wealth ... Hallelujah!
Three Others Agreed With Her!

A Third Person Said:

Let's Pray That The Lord Bless
Those Who Believe
And Those Who Do Not Believe!

Interestingly Enough
I Was Ready To Take On The Third Person
Because
I Wondered Why The Holy God Would Want To Bless
The Unbeliever Who Does Not Want To Know Him

Or Refuses To Believe In Him

Or His Goodness!?!

This Desire Was So Until 
I Stopped And Did A Think!
Soon Thereafter,
I Blinked
For
I Understood, Truly Understood
Gospel Truth!

We, As True Believers
Should Always Desire That 
The Good Lord Bless The Unbeliever
With Sight
Insight
And
Foresight
So That In Hindsight
He May Recognize The Truth That His Walk
Is Sincerely Driving Him
To The Blackness Of Darkest Night!

With The Lord So Doing
The Rabid Unbeliever Will Recognize His Plight
And
Being Honest 
Would Cry Out To The Holy God
The Lord Of Light
For Help To Fight The Battle
That Is Presently Seeking
His Purchased Soul To Permanently Blight!

My Thought Became As A Kite
In The Wind Of Spring
And
Being Borne Aloft
Pointed Itself Upward
To Heights Not Previously
Known Or Recognized!

Truth Be Told ...

It Is Imperative
That The Child Of The King
Pray For Blessings On The Unbeliever
Because 
He, Too
Was Once One Of The Lost
Labelled A Deceiver
And
A Greedy Receiver
Who Saw No Fun
In Being A Giver Of Praise And Worship
To The Only One Holy
Who Can 
Who Will
Give To Obedient Enduring Man
The Ability To Become
An Eternal Liver!

Brethren, 

We Must Pray For The Unbelieving

And

Give Them A Good Word

And

Prayerfully Desire Their Salvation

So That They Will Depart

The Wild Goat Herd! 

Final Destinations ...

Heaven Is The Believer's Promised Home! 

Hell Is The Place Of Unrepentant Sinners' Destruction

And

We Who Believe In The Living God

And

Walk With Teachable Spirits

And

Delight In The Lord Christ

Have A Blessed Opportunity

To Show To The Unbeliever That 
Jesus Christ 
Is 
The Light Of Life! 

Please Be Kind And Loving ...

Bless A Brother Sister With Glorious Truth

Be They Little Old Or Youth! 

Truth Is Sweet

The Light That Gives Light

And

Presents The Soul To Almighty God

As Something In Which He May Delight! 

Let This Gift Of Love

To Our Holy God

Be Our Life's Goal! 

Of The Delights Awaiting The Faithful

The Half Has Not Been Told!

Let's Seek To Get Lost Souls

To Make The Decision That Will See Them 

Saving Their Own Souls!

Let Us For The Lord Christ

Be Bold!

Heaven At The Last Trumpet

Is

The Most Precious Goal! 

May The Lord God Holy Divine
Give Us This Day Our Daily Bread
And
Food From Heaven
By Which All Savior-Seeking Souls Sincere
May Be Wonderfully And Fully Fed
And
By The Good Shepherd
Be Safely To The Heavenly Home Led!

Pray, Pardon, And Purity + PRAYER: You Are My Light, Lord!

Brethren,

It Is Time For A Different Approach

So

Don't Just Pray For Pardon For Sin!
Pray For Purity Of Heart!
Pray The Promises Of The Living God
AND
Ask For The Indwelling Of God's Holy Spirit!
He Is Faithful!
He Will To Your Soul Impart!

Why Be Forgiven Of Sin ... Today
AND
Look To Sin
Today Tomorrow?!
Ask For The Peace That Passes Understanding

AND
For The Repair Of The Soul
AND
Trust In The Word Of God
That Leaf From The Tree Of Life
AND
By God's Grace
Make Heaven Your Soul's Sole Goal!
Get Off The Shoals Of Life
AND
Walk To The Rock To Be Broken!
Be Bold!

Let Christ ... The Answer
Answer Your Call!
Let Him Be Your Sin-Bearer!
He's Already Paid For You To Be Saved

For
God The Father Laid The Sin-Burden Of Us All Upon Him

AND
Only He Can Negate The Effects Of The Fall!

Know This Of A Surety ...

One Day Soon
Jesus Christ, Triumphant
Is Returning To This Blue Ball
AND
Only Those For Whom He Is Savior
Lord God
King And  High Priest Installed
Shall Rise Up
When He Calls
AND
Go Up To Glorious Heaven
Where Is Prepared
A Banquet For The Blessed Redeemed
One And All!

I Tell You The Truth ...

A Pure Heart Is A Thing Of Beauty
An Item Most Precious
AND
Only Those Who Possess This Heart
Shall See The Everlasting Father
The Prince Of Peace
The Conquering King
In Peace
AND
Shall Possess The Kingdom Of Light
AND
Hear The Courts Of Heaven Ring
To Their Eternal Delight
In The Land Of No Night!

Brethren,
This IS Worth The Fight!

PRAYER:

Come Into My Heart, Lord Jesus

Root Out Sin And Self From Me!

Impart To Me Of Your Sweet Spirit

To Guide Chide Lead Teach

And

Feed Me!

I Desire To Be Like You, Lord!

Walking With My God

And

Doing The Blessed Will

And

I Beseech You

Thou Master Of The Waves

Bid My Very Soul

In You

To Be Still!

You Are My Light, Lord

My Love

My Life

And

It Is You

In Whom Is My Relief

From Sin, Self, Sorrow

From Sadness

And

From Woe!

 

It Is From You, Lord

That I Accept The Truth

In The Beautiful Rainbow

And

The Promise Inscribed In Blood

The Comfort Of The Holy Spirit

And

The Protection Of The Holy Angels

Who Work For My Salvation

At Your Request

Thou God Of Hope

The Bearer Of Truth

Who Is Everlasting Love And Life!

Your Word, Lord

Is Sharper

Than Any Two-Edged Sword

And

It Is The Mighty Cleaver

That Will Separate

The Regenerated Soul From Self

And

Sure Disaster

And

I Beseech, You

Thou King Of My Life

To Do All For Me

That Only The Holy God Can

So That I Will See

The Place Prepared For Me

In The Most Glorious Land!

Heavenly Father, 

In Jesus Christ

Is My Joy

In Living In This Vale Of Tears

And

It Is In His Holy Name

That

I Pray For Faith

And

Plead For Grace

And

Hallelujah Blessings!

I Desire To See The Dear Face

And

Of The Water Of The River That Gives Life 

I Desire To Have A Constant Taste! 

AMEN.

Frog Tongues Doing Road Work!?!

Ezekiel 34:7-11

1. 7 Therefore, ye shepherds, hear the word of the LORD;
2. 8 As I live, saith the Lord GOD, surely because my flock became a prey, and my flock became meat to every beast of the field, because there was no shepherd, neither did my shepherds search for my flock, but the shepherds fed themselves, and fed not my flock;
3. 9 Therefore, O ye shepherds, hear the word of the LORD;
4. 10 Thus saith the Lord GOD; Behold, I am against the shepherds; and I will require my flock at their hand, and cause them to cease from feeding the flock; neither shall the shepherds feed themselves any more; for I will deliver my flock from their mouth, that they may not be meat for them.
5. 11 For thus saith the Lord GOD; Behold, I, even I, will both search my sheep, and seek them out.

**--**--**--**--**

Liar, Liar!

Your Pants Will Soon Be On Fire

IF

You Do Not Stop

Repent

Turn Away

From

Preparing Dry Sticks

Even Stubble

For The Eternal God's

Lake Of Fire!

**--**--**--**--**

When Frog Tongues

Do Road Work

The People Of God Should Tremble

For

These Minions Of The Devil Self

Are In The Temple Of God

Practicing Boldly 

The Art Called Dissemble!

John The Baptist

Said Quite Plainly:

Prepare Ye The Way Of The Lord!

Make His Paths Straight!

AND

He Was Not Speaking Of

Rock And Gravel Road-Ways!

He Was Speaking Of Our Clearing Out

The Trash Blocking The Way To Our Hearts

AND

Making A Clearly Plain Way

For

The Lord Christ 

His Truth

To Our Souls Impart!

But ...

In This Day And Age Of

Gotta Have It!

Lemme At It!

It's Mine!

Those Who Are Tasked With

AND

Should Be Teaching

The Lord's Gospel Truth

Are More Interested

In Feathering Their Swanky Nests

AND

Cannot Be Bothered 

To Teach The Plain Truth

To Those Who Are Sitting

In Sin's Mess!

Telling The Souls Seeking Truth

That It Is Okay

To Not Get Out Of Living In Sin

That The Living God Made Them That Way

So There Is No Need To Change

ANYTHING

About Their Lives

Whatever Their Sin Is

IS

Doing The Devil's Lying Wonder-Work!

They Are Definitely Not Doing

The Lord Christ's Soul-Saving Work!

Almighty God Placed His Law 

On The Table Of Our Hearts

So

I Know

AND

Can Safely Say That I Am A Sinner

AND

I Do Not Want A Slick-Flicker Frog

Named Sammy No-Wrong

To Tell Me That Doing Wrong Is Living Right

AND

That The Lord God Almighty

IS

For Me

- The Wittingly Wilful Willing Sinner -

Assuredly

- Without A Doubt -

Coming Down!

Lovingly Hurt

A Sinner

With The Known Truth!

Do Not Deceitfully Comfort

A Sinner

With Known Bold-Faced Lies!

Brethren,

Let's Be Honest

AND

Let's Tell Each Other The Truth!

We Are All Sinners

AND

Doing Sin Has A Penalty

AND

The Frog-Tongue Liar That 

Tells You Otherwise

Does Not Desire That

You Should Be An Inheritor Of

God's Eternal Youth!

Do Yourself A Favor And ...

Watch A Frog Catching Flies

AND

You Will See That That Frog 

Looks Innocent

Harmless

UNTIL

At The Speed Of Light

The Falsely Assured

- Reassured -

Victim Finds Itself

No Longer Seeing Clear Blue Skies!

That Poor Thing Cruelly

- With Amazing Alacrity -

Dies!

Then Watch As ...

Froggie Resumes His Straight Face

- With Spectacularly Clean Lips -

AND

Nothing On The Other Waiting Victims' Radar

Comes Even Close To Making A Blip!

But ...

The Guts Of That Frog

Is Filled With Offal

The Result Of His Doing

Something Quite Awful

That Causes Those Unfortunates

Caught In The Swift Tongue

Not Even To Have A Chance To Say:

Good Bye, Cruel World!

I Loved Your Beauty!

S'Long!

Please ...

Do Not Let Br'er Liar

AND

His Jesus-Hating Henchmen

In Fancy Suits And Priestly Robes

Cause You Before God's Wrath

To Hunch Down

For

If That Is Your Position, Dear One

You Will Never, Ever

The Streets Of Gold 

Walk Upon!

Sigh And Cry Aloud!

The Living God Hears Your Call!

The Eternal God IS For YOU!

The Spirit Of Truth + PRAYER: Lord, Hear My Plea!

The Spirit Makes Effective
What The World's Redeemer Worked Out
On The Most Expensive Shopping Expedition

Almighty God Loves Us Enough
To

There Is No Greater Love!

There Is No Greater Love

There Is No Greater Sacrifice
Than The Father's Sacrifice
Of The Sinless Son
For The Sinful Race!

There Is No Greater Gift
Than 

God's Gift To Redeemed Man Of 

God's Eternal Life

To Whosoever Will Believe!

There Is Comfort In Truth!
The Truth Of God From God Cannot Lie!
The Word Of Truth
Cannot Die
AND
Those Who
In Faith
Do Believe
Shall With The Angels

Truth Given
By The Spirit Of Truth
Works

As It Journeys
To Man's Heart

AND
Has The Eternal Power
To Cause Man
To Fall On The Rock Of Salvation
AND
Be Broken Apart!

It Is The Only Way Out Of Sin's Dark!

Truth Without The Spirit 

Is Just Pretty Words
Immaculate
Clean
Unable To Breach
The Hard Shell Of Sin
That Makes Man
Before The Living God
Unregenerate
Unclean!

PRAYER:

Spirit Of The Living God

Please Fall Today On Me

And

Cause Me

Before My God And King

To Be An Obedient Child

An Ardent Student

A Healing Patient

Willing

To Take The Blessings

Offered Free

Just For The Asking!

In Jesus Christ's Holy Name

I Pray

- Hear My Plea -

Let Not My Life's Living

Be One Called ... In Vain!

AMEN.
