VESPERS AT THE END OF THE SABBATH: Admiration And Approval!

In The Clan O'Man
Admiration O'Men
AND
Approval O'God
Were Stated
AND
Sworn Enemies!

This State Of Affairs
Is No Faction
Nor Fiction!
It Is A Fact
AND
It Sees Much Action
For
Admiration O'Men
Is Quite Popular
In The Clan O'Man
Since He Drives
The Biggest Big Man Wagon
AND
Lives At
Egg Don't Go To Big-Rock Dance
AND
Operates
The Catch As Catch-Can Shopping Mall
With Its
Blowing In De Breeze
Concession Stands!

Admiration O'Men
Roundly Roundly Despises
Approval O'God
AND
Considers
His Lifestyle To Be Pitiful
His Life Abysmal
His Word Too Truthful
His Walk-Way Too Narrow
The Road He Walks Too Straight
His House Too Quiet
His Speech Too Soft
His Clothing Too White
His Spirit Too Light
AND
He Has Questioned

Loudly
Why Approval O'God
Was Always Always Praying
AND
Why He Was Always Reading That Book
AND
Then Going To Sleep With The Birds
When He Could Instead Be Out Partying 
- Like A Real Man -

At Night!

Admiration And Approval
Had Not Always Been Enemies  ...

They Obviously Grew Up In The Same Clan!
They Lived In The Same Country
Same State
Same City
Same Borough
Same Street

They Spoke The Same Language
Drank The Same Water
Used To Eat The Same Meat!
Went To The Same School
Attended The Same Church
Shopped At The Same Market
Worked For The Same Company
AND
Walked The Same Walk
Until The Day
Man O'God
Gave
- In The Grand Assembly - 

"The Walk The Talk Talk To Walk Your Talk!"

Prior To This
The Major Talks Had Been

"Walk Your Walk!"

AND

"Talk Your Talk!"

BUT
The Day Of
The Walk Your Talk Talk
Made Many Men Balk
AND
There Was As Much Squawking
As There Was Walking
AND
Talking
Until
- With Finality -
Man O'God Challenged All
To Let Their Walking Do Their Talking
If 

They Wanted The Best O'God Life!

He - They Said -
Had Heartlessly Plunged Into Their Carnal Hearts
The Big Knife That Tortures Strife!

Well ... 

I Will Have You To Know That
Challenge Thrown Down
Saw
Gauntlet Picked Up!
... And How!

Admiration And Approval
Read The Stated Text Book
- Basic Instructions Before Leaving Earth -
AND
They Were Off And Running
With The Clan O'Man Picking Sides
AND
Uttering On Their Chosen Champion
Blessings And Cursing
As Appropriate ... Of Course!

There Were Now
OFFICIALLY
Only Two Camps
To Which One
- Independent -
Could Belong!

There Was Mirth
- A Time Or Two -
As The Champions Fought For
AND
Found
Their Footing On, On ... The Way!

There Were Pitfalls
Sandbars
Desert Days
AND
Boisterous Cries Of

"I See The Promised Land
Just Over There!"

AND

There Were Days
When It Took Them Everything
To Make Even One Step
BUT
Something Was Happening
AND
Engendering
For Each Champion
His Cheering Side's Vocal
AND
Thoughtful
Dare I Say ... Respect!

Fifty Days Down The Road
Man O'God
- In The Assembly -
Stood Up
For To Speak
AND
With Eyes Enlightened
By Inspiration's Spirit
- In Dreadful Tones -
He Started To Speak!

His Word Was Not A Long One
BUT
It Was Not A Word For The Weak!
He Uttered In Force-Filled Cadence:

"Men and Brethren
I Know The One Of Whom I Speak
So
Choose You This Day
Whom You Will Serve:
The God Of Self
Or
The God Of Salvation!
Neither One Can Be Tweaked
For Each Is God
All Or Nothing!
Neither Is A Soft Pillow
That One Must Be Ever Fluffing!

As For Me
I Choose The Living God
The God Of Creation
The God Of My Salvation
Who Guards
Who Guides
Who Feeds!

I Choose
The God That Requires Obedience
AND
I Deny That Useless God
"Do What Thou Wilt!"
Where Self
Self Leads
Right Into Hell!

Be Prayerful!
Be Hopeful!
Be Helpful!
Be Kind!
Lift Up The Fallen!
Live For The Lord!
He Is Holy!
He Is The Only God DIVINE
Who Is Sustainer
Provider ... !

When, Suddenly ...

Admiration O'Men
- Suddenly All 'Growed Up' -
Spoke Up
AND
Uttered
Those Fatal Words:

If He Provides So Much
How Come He Doesn't Give Me Some Money?!
Gimme De Gold!

AND

All Hell Broke Loose!

Devils Joined The Fray!

It Was As Though
Someone
Had Opened A Stop-Cock!

Actually ...

Someone Did
AND
Admiration O'Men
Became The Head Clansman
That. Very. Day!

He Was Bold!
He Was Daring!
He Was Reckless ... To The Max!
He Acquired a Goon-Squad Of Villians
AND
He Made The Tax Man
Pay Him Back-Tax!

He Made Right Things Wrong
AND
With Devilish Machination
Saw 
Wrong Things Turned Right! 

He Darkened Lighted Streets
AND
Turned
Up Things Down!

What Had Once Been Bitter Is Now Sweet!
Old Sweet Became New Bitter
AND
*JustLikeThat*
Admiration O'Men
Was
IS
Rolling In Dough
AND
His Kitty
Had Gold Nuggets
For Kitty Litter
In Which To Do The Go!

His Dog Had a Dog
To Bark For It!

His Children Had Children
For Them To Cry
AND
His Wife Had A Keep-Miss Wife
To Do The Kitchen Business
AND
He
The Man Himself
The Power Of The Hour
Had A Line  Of Self-Decaying Ties
AND
A Literary Fleet Of Truly Upstanding Lies!

Admiration O'Men
- By Girth -
Also Grew Exponentially
BUT
Poor Approval O'God
Barely Got By
BUT
Surprise And Shock
He Was Glowingly Happy!

To See Those Two
Together
You Would Never Know
That They Read

Read

The Same Book
AND
From Its Pages
Directions For Living Their Lives
With Assurance
Took!

Fast Forward ...

Twen-T-Ish Years Later ...
Well ... 

All I Know Is
Many Years Have Passed
AND
Admiration O'Men's Holdings
In Carnal Earth
Were Vast Vast Vast
For
He Had In With The Very Devil
His Earthly Lot Cast
AND
In His Massive Holdings
- In Their Damning Glow -
He Did Bask!

He Was A Vile Offender
Who Truly Did Not Believe
In Pardons From Jesus
Nor Prayers On Bony Knees!

He Believed In His Belly
White Bread
AND
Blue Cheese
AND
Took Great Pleasure
Gross Pleasure
Practical Pleasure
In Selling 
Self-Pleasuring Sleaze!

He Was A Hedonist
A Humanist
A Globalist
A Revisionist
With Communist
Plus
Hegelian
Sadistic
AND
Masochistic
Tendencies To Self-Actuated
Authentic-Living Bliss!

He Would Kill For Popularity's Kiss
AND
There Is Documented Proof Of This!

Well, Well, Well ...!

I Guess That You Know

That

What Must Must

Must Must, Right?!

Every Dog Got 'E Day
Every Workday Got 'E Four O'Clock
AND
Every Pig
Got Sa'rday Mornin'
A N D
Admiration O'Men

Like A True Member Of The Last Class
Had Brought His Own Boar-Pig
To The Fine Market
AND
There Were Big Doings
Going On At His House!

Admiration O'Men
Was Sick
Sick Sick ... In Sin!
He Had Ruined Many Men!
Many Widows!

Many Orphans! 

He Had Brought Down Kings
AND
Cast Out Kin!

He Had Fed On The Weak!
He Had Colluded With The Wannabe Strong
AND
He Had Run With The Wasters
Who Lived For
Wine Women And Song
AND
Now 
He Is Dying
Is Sighing
Is Crying
AND
He Has Called For
Approval O'God
Who Is Now
The Man O'God
Who Is At Peace With The Eternal God
Having Escaped The Torments Of This World
By Not Giving In To
- Of All Things -
Lust ... Of The Eye
AND
Of The Flesh
AND
Has Denied The Pride Of Life
By Doing The Thing Honest
Lovely
Kind

AND
True

AND
All By Walking Wise
In Straight Paths
Having Heard
AND
Answered
Sweet Wisdom's Call
By Holding Out For
Holding On To
True Blessings
By Trusting
By Being Faithful
To The God
Who Sees Knows
AND
Is In All!
Phew!

Admiration O'Men

Not Being Able To Keep

For He Had Found Out

- The Hard Way -

That He Was No Refrigerator
On His Deathbed
Told Approval
All, All, Every Single Solitary

Ghastly Nasty Unkind

Deceitful Wicked

Downright Evil Thing
That He Had Done
Admitting
That Though He'd Done Much Wrong
The Chase Had Been ... Fun
Well ... Of A Sort!

He Said
That In Hind Sight

AND

With A Life Redo
He Would Walk
In Approval O'God's Way
BUT THAT
Since A Redo Is Not Possible
It Is A Good Thing That He Is Dying
For
He Is Convinced That Life Is Better
Doing Things In The Good Way
AND
Asked Approval O'God
To Tell The Clan O'Man
The Real Truth

AND
Not That Story
Published By That One Called Tissue O'Lies
Who Is One Of The Kin Of
O'Dee Devil
Who Takes Pleasures
In Works Of Unrighteousness
AND
Calling To Perdition
Those Fools Who Say
There Is No God!
AND

What Son Of God?!
What Son Of Man?!

Admiration O'Man
Died A Frightful Death
Kicking And Screaming
Using Language That Had Pith
BUT
The Great God
Had Approval O'God
Of The Clan O'Man In His Hand
So That Those Of The Clan O'Man

Who Chose To Be Wise
Can Stand
- Firm -

In The Faith O'God
Without Being

Becoming
A Marked For Damnation
Cast-Out Disgrace!

What Say You?
Answer If You Can ...

Are Approval And Admiration
Brothers
Twins
Neighbors
Friends?

Do Those Two
Approval And Admiration 

Of The Clan O'Man
Reside
In Me And In You?

I Say That

Approval And Admiration
Are Spirits
- Good And Bad -
AND
All Card-Carrying Members Of The Clan O'Man
Must Decide With Which Of Them
To Clasp Loving Hands!

To Life ... There Is A Limit!

I Now Ask YOU ...

Who Is Your Walking Companion?
How Are You Reading The Word?
Are You Yearning For Temporal Prosperity
AND

Walking In League With The World?

Do You Trust The Living Word Of The Master

AND
To Heaven
Are Sending Building Boards
OR

Are You A Tool Of The Devil
Trusting In What Feels Good

AND

Revelling In Things Sinful
Compliments Of The Leader Of 

The Wild Goat Goat Herd?!

Total Surrender To Almighty God

Holds Great Consequence
Both In The Here And Now
AND
For The Kingdom To Come
AND
All Who Will Inherit
Of Eternity The Crown
Must Fully Trust In The Eternal God
AND
In The Faith Of The Holy Jesus
Be Anchored
Rooted
Grounded  ... Strong!

Brethren ...

For A Personal Donation

Of

Confession And Repentance

I Encourage You To:

 Pick Up

Your Free Glass Marked ... SALVATION

And

Make Yourself A Beverage!

Your Base

Is

The Blood Of The Lamb!
- Forgiveness Is Poured Freely -

To Be Followed With

A Dollop Of Trust

A Splash Of Mercy

A Daily Dash Of Hope

And

With Blessedly Free Daily Grace

You Must Swish It All Around

And

Then Sweeten It Amply

With The Salt Of Obedience

And

Add A Peace Berry

And

Of Faith A Sprig

And

With Your Love For The Master Leading

Drink, Drink

To Your Fill!

HAPPY SABBATH + PRAYER : Caring Is CARING Is Sharing!

Help The Brethren, True

Not To Be Hypocrites
And
Behave Like Those Out There

In The Cruel World

Hoarding All Of The Goodies

That You Provided For All
And

Keeping It For Our Selves

Uncaring

Not Willing

With Others To Share!

Help Us To Share The Gospel!

Which Is Beneficial To All

Those Old

Young Children And Youth!

Help Us To Share A Kindness!

Help Us To Kindle A Light!

The Straight Nails Of Your

Truth

And

Not Crooked Rusty Nails

That Keep People

I Ask You To Help Me

To Continue To Believe

To Hope In The Lord
And
To Love Faithfully
And

Ever To Trust!

Help Me To Help Others

To See The Heavenly Light

And

Help Us All To Help Our Brethren

Even Those From Other Mothers
And

Even Those In Lands Where

Their Day Is Our Night!

You Give To Us!

Help Us To Give Back

By Giving To Others

So That All Are Fed

And

For Ourselves

There Is No Lack!

You Promised Provision -

In Jesus' Name

Please Show To The World

That Our Faith Is Backed By Fact!

Father, 

Help Us To Love
And
To Trust You
More And More
As Our Faith Grows!

Help Us To Honor You

And

Obey
Even When We Don't Know Where
The Path Leads Or Shows!

Father,
We Can See That The Day Is Really Coming
And
Recognize - If We Are Honest -

That The King Is Almost At The Door

So, Please

Help Us To Look

With Joy

To The Day

When

Face To Face

We Shall See Him

In Whose Name To You We Humbly

Petition For Grace In Prayer!

Lord,

In Mercy

Pity The Poor!

The Weak!

The Meek!

Pity Those Who 
For Christ's Readily Available Salvation Seek!

In Pitying Love
I Beseech You, Please
To Remember Those

Who Do Not Yet Know Of The Christ
And

Those For Whom Man's Illumination

Means

They Are Walking Alone

In The Dark Night!

Oh, God

Who Only Is Faithful

Oh, God

Who Alone Is True

Truth

Pity Us Who Pray

For The Indwelling Spirit

By Helping Us

From Sin And Satan

To Be Permanently

Cut Loose

And

Help Us Not To Look Back

And, Thereby

Sweet Salvation Lose!

Please, Lord

I Beseech You

To Grant Us This Day

The Promised Measure Of Faith!

Grant Us, We Pray

The Grace For Walking In The Right Way!

Help Us Not To Turn Aside

To Enter The Pleasure Palaces Of The Night

And

Protect Us

We Beseech Thee

As The Battle For Eternal Life

In Christ

We .. Striving In Faith

Fight!

Oh, For The Faith

That Will Not Shrink

In The Name Of The Holy Jesus

- In Love -

We Humbly Plead

And
Present These Few Petitions!

AMEN.

A NEW SONG : I Have Learned ...!

I'm Satisfied With My Jesus!
With Him, I'm Going Home!
I Am Satisfied With My Jesus
Who, For My Sins
With His Blood Did Atone!
I Used To Walk As One Wicked
One Weary
One Alone
But, Jesus
My Jesus Called
And Said:

Child,
It Is Time For You To Come On Home!

I Struggled! How I Struggled!
I Got Angry!
I Was Offended By Him And I Cried
But Lovingly He Loved Me

And My Bitter Tears He Dried
And, Now 
As One Redeem-ed
I'm Walking On The King's Highway
And God's Great Grace
Is Keeping Me In Christ's Faith
And I Don't Want It Any Other Way

For The Ways Of Truth
I Have Learned!

REFRAIN:

I'm Now Walking Free
For Jesus Christ Has Rescued Me
And Now I Share The Truth I Learned
That Satan Ever Always Lies
But In The Heart Of God
True Love Abides!
God's Everlasting Love Abides!
God Is Everlasting! 
Love ... Abides!

INFLUENCE: The SUMP!?! + PRAYER: Lord, Let My Influence Be For Good!

INFLUENCE

Is A ...

S ilent
U nconscious
M ighty
P ower!

Every Human Has A SUMP
To Be Used For Good Or For Ill
AND
Those Who Use It
For The Love Of The Lord Jesus
Will
Of The Tree
AND
The River Of Water
Of Life
Take Their Needful Fill!

Angels Excelling In Strength
Influence 

- For Good -

Those Who

- By Choice -
Walk Under The Banner Of Christ
BUT
Those Who Choose
To Walk Right
In Their Own Eyes
Are Under The Influence Of Angels Who
Chose Not To Keep Their Place
AND
Were Cast Out Of God's Heaven
- For Eternity -
In Damnable Disgrace!

Cow Patty!
No Body Influences Me!
I Think!

Therefore ... I AM!

Ahem!
Big Fellow You Just Proved My Point!
The Only "I AM" -
No Exclamation Point Required
IS
The Lord Jesus Christ
AND
You Are Following The Multitude
Swallowing The Liarman's Lie

AND
Taking Up Position
For Which You Don't Have
Power

Glory
Authority
Height

Might
Position
Age

Spirit
Nor Life!

Huh?!
Wha' You Just Say, Man?!
Talk English!
Speak Sense ... If You Please, Of Course! 

I Am Speaking English
AND
I Am Talking Sense!
The Wrath To Come
Is For Those Who Choose
To Walk On In The Dark
On The Wild Side Of Life
Letting Fallen Angels
You Know ... Those Demons
Those Damned
To Influence Their Actions
AND
Without Care For Their Souls
AND
To Their Hurt
To Choose Their Words!

Them's Just Words, Man!
Words In The Wind!
You Are Spinning A Tale
But I Can't See Which Type Of Yarn You're Passing!

It's Your Funeral
But I Won't Help You Purchase A Nail!

My Tale As You Call It
Has A Foundation
That Cannot Fail!

Remember The Demoniac
That Interrupted Jesus In Church ...!

You Mean The Temple, Right?!

Temple Church Church Temple
Six O' One
Half-Dozen Of The Other!

Well ...

That Demoniac Knew
He Was In The Presence
Of The Only Help For Man
AND
Wanting Blessed Relief
He Thought To Call For Help
BUT
Dan Blocker The Devil
- Always Where He Is Not Wanted -
Muzzled That Poor Man
AND
Using The Very Devil's Own Words
Asked Jesus ... Instead
To Leave Him Alone!

That Is Not Proof!
It Is Only One Witness!
The Bible Says
In The Mouth Of Two Or Three WitNESSES
With The Stress On The 'Es'
Let A Claim Be Established!

Alright, My Man!

I Feel You!

Peter, Peter
Simon Peter
Called Christ
 - Under The INFLUENCE
Of The Holy Spirit -
The Holy Son Of God
AND
In His Next Words
- After Jesus Said That He, Himself
Would Be Killed -
Uttered Words So Damning
That They Could Only Have Come
From The Head Man
Of The Goatherd
BECAUSE
Jesus Plainly Said:

Get Thee Behind Me, Satan!

I Paraphrase Here ...

Get Thee Behind Me, Satan
Don't Interpose Your Self!
I Am Conversing With My Beloved, Peter!
Don't Block The Light - You Are Darkness!
I Am The Light Of Life

AND
You Are Not Going To Cut Short
Peter's Meter!

Man, You Crack Me Up!
I Didn't Know Peter Had A Meter!

He Sure Did!

Don't You Remember That
Further Down The Road
Jesus Told Peter
That Satan Desired
To Sift Him As Wheat
But
That He, Jesus, Had Prayed For Him?!

Yes, Sir, I DO!
Peter Was Always Talking!
AND
You Made Your Point!

I Am Not Finished!
Witness Number THREE!

Question For You ...

Do Donkeys Speak
In Cultured Tones
Questioning Their Master
AND
For Good Measure
Reciting Their Work History
As If
Well
With Consideration
Boss Man Should For His Gross Offence
Against Faithfulness
He Should Atone?!

No! Donkey's Don't Speak!
But Donkeys Do Bray
And Unless Man Has A Bray-Interpreter
Someone Else
Was Speaking
Is What I Say!

And, I, Sir
Having Made My Point
Now Rest My Case!

As The Defendant In This Matter
I Place Myself At The Mercy Of "The Court"
Honestly Recognizing My Error
And Praying For Present Truth
So That Error Won't Metaphorically Cut My Throat!

Friend,
Jesus Christ IS Our Shepherd
The Author Of Our Lives
AND
We Must Be Thankful
That He Didn't Leave Us Alone
For Satan To Run And Board
Aka RailRoad
Aka Derail
Demolish
Decimate
Our Lives!

Let Us Accept The Holy Angels'
Influence For Good
AND

Choosing Our Words For Us
So That Satan Can Be Withstood
AND
A Soul For Jesus
May Be Brought
Into
Unto The Light
AND
That Damned Devil
Will Needs Find Another Ground
On Which His Losing Battle To Fight!

Inflence Is, Indeed
A Silent Unconscious Mighty Power!

PRAYER:

Lord,

Let My Influence

Be The One For Good

So That, I

- Your Child -

May Be A Good Witness

Against The Raging Flood

Of

 Error And Overt Covert Lies!

Teach Me Your Ways, Lord!

Help Me To Honor You!

Lift Me Up, Lord

Let The World In Me See You!

Guide Me, Lord!

I Desire To Walk Humbly With You Now

So That In The Day Coming

I Will Live With You

And

To Sing For The Joy

That Is Not Experienced In This Realm -

Until Then

In Faith

Hope

And

Love

And

Abiding Trust

Before You

- In Obedience To The Truth -

I Humbly, Humbly Bow!

In Jesus' Name

In Assurance Of Victory Over Self

And
Raging Sin

I Pray, Lord, And Plead!

AMEN.

PRESERVATION By ... SACRIFICE?!

Self

• -Satisfaction
• -Centeredness
• -Aggrandizement 
• -Love
• -Serving
• -Interests
• -Righteousness

Must Be Set Aside
IF
Self-Destruction
Is To Be Avoided
AND

One Is 

- For Eternity -
To Find Christ's Peace
AND
Enjoy His Perfect Rest!

The Law Of Self
-Preservation
IS
The Law Of Self
-Sacrifice
AND
Every Other Ode To The Self
IS
A Satanic Device!

If We Would Look
At The Grain Harvests Of The World
We Will Learn Two Great Truths
That Pertain To Jesus Christ
The Creator
Of The Heaven And The Earth!

To Preserve Seed
To Fill Man's Food Need
The Best Seed
Is Thrown Out
To Suffer Death
In The Cold Earth
AND
In So Doing
It Regenerates
AND

Grows Again
Marching On To A Great Harvest
Again

To Feed The Earth!

The Not-The-Best Seed
Is Marketed 

For The Table
For The Consumption Of Men
Never To See The Light Of Life
Never To Praise The Lord -
The Last Word It Will Ever Hear Is:

Thank You, Lord! AMEN

As In Nature
So In The Spiritual Realm:

Christ's Death
Raises A Harvest Of Fruit
Because He Resurrected
Proving To Death
That He, The Lord Jesus Christ
Is, Indeed 

The Truth
The Way
The Only Way To Life
AND
All Who Will Work For Him
Will Preserve Surrendered-To-Christ Self
By Self ... SACRIFICE!

Today, We Celebrate Independence

BUT

Raging Independence 

May Have An Exposed Nail In Its Shoe

Piercing Those Who Live For Self

Introducing Blood-Poisoning -

That Disease Vile

So, Please 

Do Not Let This Happen To You!

"Give To Get!"Is The Old Adage
Even Today ... Still True

ANDI Beseech You, Brethren
Give Of Self
To The Service Of Christ Jesus
For
- In Pleasure And For Eternal Blessing -
The Almighty God
- Has Heavenly Delights

Including A Name
A Crown

AND
Even A Bright Mansion -
Prepared
- Personally -
For You!
I've Got One, Too!

Give To Live!

Live To Give!

JESUS SAVES: The Man-Designed Way Of Man Is A Lie!

It Is Wrong
To Trust Human Effort
To Transform Human Character
For
It Is Only The Spirit Of God
That Can Do That

AND
For Finite Man
This Causes A Spot Of Bother!

Many Minds
Some Brilliant
Many Cruel In The Desire To Be Kind
AND
Many Evil
AND
Satanically-Influenced Influential
Think It Is In Their Power
To Reconstruct A Sin-Stained
Life-Broken Man
As If He Is A Child's Broken Toy Tower!

As It Was Yesterday
So It Is Today:

Man Cannot Fix 

What Man Did Not Make!

Man Is Not Jesus Christ
AND
Man To Man
- Sin-Stained To Sin-Stained -
Is Robustly Unjust
- Good Intentioned Or Not -
AND
Playing God
AND
Attempting To Fix
The Spiritually Flawed And "Fine-Crystal-Man"
With The Delicate Touch Of 
The Hydraulically-Driven Sledge-Hammer
Only Leaves Behind 
The Powdered-Glass Dust
Of The Broken Man
Now To Life
- For Real -
A Mere Husk!

Man Need To Acknowledge
That The Holy God
Does Not Need His Hindrance 
Disguised As Help!
What The Living God Asks Of Us
Is Our Cooperation
AND
Our Willingness
By The Almighty Power
To Be Taught
To Be Led
AND
With That Cooperation
Leading To The New Way With Life To Cope
Humanity
- Aligned With Divinity -
Will Beat Any Prospecting Devil From Hell!

All Said And Done ...

With Jesus Christ Working
AND
The Holy Spirit Indwelling
- Comforting Teaching -
 Sin And Satan
Will Have No One To Mamaguy
AND
To Cause To Live Life Bleak
AND
Will Have To Find Other Ground
For
In The Fully- Surrendered-To-Christ-Life
All Their Vaunted Power
Will Have Done Gone
AND
Out Leaked!

Trust God

AND

Know

The Truth That Sets Men FREE!!

For

FREE!!

PRAYER: Lord, Let Your Will For My Life Be Mine!

Father, 

Oh, My Father

Help Me To Hold Fast In My Grasp

The Outstretched Arm

So That In The Days Of My Troubles

I Do Not Have To Cast Around

To Find An Anchor

To Which To Tie My Tossing Ship Fast!

Father, 

Rid Me Now

Of Any Traits Of Character

That Will Cause Me

In My Elder Years

To Become

Anxious

Angry

Bitter

Jealous

And Envious

Imagining

Slights And Hurts

From This And That Friend Foe

Sister Brother

Daughter Son

Earthly Father And Dear Mother!

Save Me, Lord

From That Troublesome Woe!

Help Me Let Them Go!

Lord, Make Them Go!

It Is Not My Desire

To Give Place To The Wily Foe!

It Is My Desire, Dear Father

That My Fruit For Heaven

Should Ripen Sweet

At The End

Of Its Season Of Growth

AND

I Beseech You

In The Holy Jesus' Name

Help Me

Shelter Me

Manure 

Water And Prune My Tree

So That

Whether I Die

Or Remain Alive

When The Lord Christ Shall Come

I Shall Rise Up To Meet My King 

And Hear:

"Faithful, Profitable Servant

Well Done!

Into The Pearly Gates

You Are Welcome To Come!"

Remember The Brethren

In The Near And Scattered Folds!

Call Them

Lord, Call Them

To Come In From The Cold

To The Great Fold Of Safety

Behind The Protective Hedge

So That The Evil Ones

Will Not Consume Them

Using Them For Mere Merchandise

On Some Merchant Of The Earth's

Never-Satisfied Shelf!

Father,

Thank You! 

I Bless You

For The Comfort Found Only 

In Holy Spirit Of God! 

I Thank You For The Angelic Protection

That You Provide Against The Fraud

And The Enemies Of God!

I Thank You For Daily Care

Daily Grace

Daily Faith

And

I Thank You For The Forgiveness For Sin

That Takes Condemnation

Off The Rugged Path

That My Foot Does Trace!

I Thank You For My Blessings

Innumerable

Invisible

Immense!

I Thank You For The Myriad Mercies Of Favor

Spent

And

Those Not Yet Spent!

I Thank You, Lord 

For The One Gift

That "Thank You!" 

Cannot Cover! 

The Gift Of The Son

On Cruel Calvary

The Life Of Christ Jesus

My True Love

My Soul's Only Lover!

Oh, Love

That Will Not Let Me Go

Love Me

So That In Your Character

I May Grow More And More!

Love Me, Lord

Lead Me

Into The Glorious Light

So That That Light

The Light Of The World

The Only True Light

That Leads To

And

Gives

Eternal Life

Will Be My Day Light

My Night Light

And

The Light Of My Life

Unto And Ever After

The Day That The Saints Of God

Shall Take Flight

To Eternal Life!

Into Your Hands, Lord

I Give Unto You ... Me!

Let Your Will

And

Your Ways Be Mine

So That Forever Will, Thereby

Be Mine

With

My Savior Jesus Christ 

The Lord God Holy Divine!!

I Love You, Lord!

Hope For Heaven

Is Beating In My Chest

And

In That Hope

The Name Of My Lord Christ

I Do Publicly Confess!

Remember Me

Is My Plea

For In Jesus' Name

I Humbly Plead!

AMEN.
