HAPPY SABBATH + Resting In The Love Of The Lord Christ! + PRAYER: It Is Our Desire To Bless You, Father!

He Is Dressed To The Nines

Yet Naked And Afraid!
Afraid And Alone

Alone ... In The Sights Of The Devil
Who Is Plotting 

And 

Instigating What Evil
To That Soul Can Be Done!
He's Having Fun And Then Some

In The Company Of The Popular 

The Illuminated 

The Rich And Connected Ones!

Look At Him ...

He Is Jumping At Shadows

Afraid Of And Loving The Dark

Angry At Disappointment

Lurching From Sorrow To Sorrow

Always Worried About Tomorrow

Yet Loving The Coarse And Bright Broadway

But

Disdaining The Way Straight And Narrow!

 Here's Someone Different ...

She Is Simply Clothed In Christ's Righteousness
A Repentant Sinner

Believing In The Word Of Truth

Bowing Humbly Before

And 

Importunately Praying
To The Heavenly Father
- In The Name Of The Son -
Unafraid To Live Her Life In Christ

And IsBy Circumstance Undeterred

Because
She Is Resting In The Love Of The Lord Jesus
Who Died ... A Curse
To Save Us All, Everyone!

Look At Her ...

Walking With Jesus
Refusing
To Ever Again Run Wild In Sin
Standing
On The Promises Of God
Knowing
That With Faithful Endurance
By Right
Heaven's Gate She Shall Enter In
Nevermore To Be Touched By Evil Surmising!
She's Faithful In Her Daily Striving!

Don't You Know ...

It Is Better To Be Pure, Poor And Humble
With Jesus Christ The Lord
Than To Be
Tainted, Rich And Proud With The Fraud

Because

Pure, Poor And Humble
Stays Pure
Becomes Rich
And
Is Elevated In Christ's Purity To Eternity

But

The Tainted, Rich And Proud
Stay Tainted
Become Irretrievably Poor
And
Their Pride 

Is 

Humbled Unto Destruction
Along With Their Instigator, Satan
Who Encouraged Them
The Lord Of Life
The Truth For All Ages
The King Of Love
The Light Of Life
To Egregiously Denigrate, Defy And Deny
BecauseOf Their Engrossing Love Of 

The Comfortable Lie!

Think About It ...

Two Lives
Two Thoughts
Two Characters
Two Masters
Two Distinctly Different Ways Of Life
One Judgment
Two Vastly Different Outcomes
Because
One Chooses 

By Belief, Faith 

And 

Practiced Obedience 

To Forever Live

And

The Other Chooses 

By Doubt, Disbelief 

And 

Practiced Disobedience 

To Forever Die!

Brethren, Beloved

Upon Whom For Comfort Do You Rely!?!
Unto Whom In Your Need Do You Cry!?!
Do You Pay Homage 

To The Master Of The Winds And The Waves
OrDo You Cavort With The Master Of Disaster!?!

Are You Heeding The Broad Call To Self
Or
Will You Join Me
And
Heed The Narrow Call To Salvation
And
In Your Own Life
Reverse The Cause Of Man's Fall!?!

You Know The Whole Of The Story!
You Know Who It Is That Sacrificially Loves You!
You, Alone, Must Make For Everlasting Life 

The Decision
Because
Neither The Lord Christ
Nor The Damned Devil
Can Force Their Will Upon You!

FYI:

At The End Of The Conflict
Only The Tried Tested 

And 

True Saints Of Almighty God And Christ
Will Be Standing Tall
Glorified
Incorruptible
Immortalized!

PRAYER:

Father,

I Come To You

Because I Believe That

You Are The God Holy!

I See My Need For The Savior

So Help Me, Please

- As An Obedient Sheep -

At His Hand To Feed!

Lord,

I Repent Of My Known Sin!

Please Help Me Not To Sin Again!

Help Me Not To Turn Again To Fables

And

Bless Me To Walk As The Wise

And

Not Become A Part Of Satan's Stable!

Father,

I Pray For My Brethren

Those Near And Those Far

Those Who Are Among The Called-Out

Those Who Are Seeking

No More To Be Among

The Itchy-Earred Walk-Abouts!

Please Bless Them To Take Hold Of

The Holy Hand

That Is Reaching Out To Them

And

Bless Them To Ever Hear The Still Voice Of

The Loving Heart

Who, To Us

Desires To Draw Near!

Help Us To Respond With Godly Fear!

And

Courage For The Way We Must Walk

And

Please Provide For Us

All That You Have Promised

For

We Love You

And

We Worship

And

It Is Our Desire To Bless You

Who Always Blesses Us

Without Our Having To Ask!

Please, Father

Remember Those Who Mourn

Those Who Anticipate A Mourning

The Childless

The Motherless And The Fatherless

The Poor And The Downtrodden

The Lost And The Lonely

The Demon-Possessed

The Demon-Oppressed

And

Those Who Have No Safe Place To Call Home

- Physically Or Spiritually -

And

Have Mercy On Those Who Do Not Yet Know

That The Lord Jesus Christ

- The Creator God

The Savior, The Redeemer

The Forever Friend -

For Their Personal, Public And Private Sin

Did Completely Atone!

Please Grant Unto Us These Few Petitions, Father

For We Ask All In The Matchless Name Of

The Holy Jesus

Your Beloved And Only Begotten Son

Our Returning King!

Please Come For Us Soon!

AMEN.

LIVING LIFE: Progression!

Why Are You Always So Chirpy!?!

Why Are You Always So Snide!?!

Okay, You Two!
That's Enough!

Listen To Me Closely
And 
I Will Tell You True
How TAHC "Tablets"
Decide ... For You
How, In This Life, You Will Walk Through!

I Don't Take TAHC Tablets!
Lacy, Do You!?!

No, Lucy!
At Least I Don't Think So!

What Do You Mean, Bro. Purdy!?!

Lucy And Lacy
And
All Of You Here
Every Human Being Has TAHC "Tablets"
That They Each Take Every Day!

Some People Take TAHC
And
Walk On The Negative Side!
Some People Take TAHC
And
BOOM!
Positive Ride!

What On Earth Is TAHC!?!

Would You Agree With Me That
Every Human Thinks!?!

Yes, Of Course!

Would You Agree With Me That
Every Human Performs Actions!?!

Of Course! That's Natural!

Would You Agree With Me That
Every Human
Big Or Small, Old Or Young
Wise Or Simple, Rich Or Poor
Prince Or Pauper
Priest, Pastor, Pope, President
Prime Minister, Politician, Performer
All Have Habits!?!

That's For Certain Sure ...!

... And Sometimes Very Bad Ones At That!

Would You Agree With Me That
Each On Of Us On This Planet
- Seen And Unseen -
Has A Character!?!

Sure Do, And Some Very Bad Ones Exist!

Very True!

But, Bro. Purdy
You Haven't Said What TAHC Actually Is!

Oh, But I Just Did!
Weren't You Paying Attention!

Come On!
You Did Not Such Thing!

Jaden!?!

Yes, Bro. P!?!

Did I Not Just Indicate To You
What TAHC Is!?!

Yes, Sir!

Would You Care To Recap For Your Brethren
What It Is That You Heard!?!

I Sure Would, Bro. P!

Guys,
Bro. P Just Told Us Plainly That
All Humans Have
A. Thoughts, Perform
B. Actions, Create
C. Habits, And Build
D. Characters!

Come On!
All He Asked Was A Bunch Of Questions!
At Least That Is What I Gathered!

That's Shallow Thinking
And A Lack Of An Enquiring Mind!

Be Nice, Hailey!

Sorry!

Okay! Let's Go Deep!

We All Think So We Have ... THOUGHTS!
All Of Our Thoughts Lead To ... ACTIONS!
Actions Repeated Turn To ... HABITS!

And

Habits Form ... CHARACTER!

Now Please Listen Carefully ...

The Jump From Thoughts To Character
Is
A Very Short One
But
It Leads To Life-Altering Consequences!

You Are What You Eat!
You Are What You Think!
Your Life Is Created By Your Thoughts!

Remember 
What The Word Of Truth Says ...

 

What You Let In
Is
What You Will Live Out!

GIGO!!
Garbage In!
Garbage Out!
Nicely Said!

Now ...

Let's Talk Lucifer!

Oh, Dear!
This Is Not Going To Be Good!
I Can Feel It Already!

Thoughts BECOME Matter
Because
Thoughts ... MATTER!

Lucifer ... Thought!
Lucifer's Thoughts Mattered ... To Him

And

Lucifer

- Making A Mess Of His Matters -

Temporarily Wrecked The Peace Of Heaven

And

Permanently Destroyed 
The Once Peaceful Lives Of Numerous Angels

And

Then Proceeded To Leave The Life Of Man In Tatters

Because

He Wanted Mightily To Matter The Most
To All The Lord's Hosts!

When You Start Badly

You End Up Doing Badly

Because

Your Thoughts Are Skewed

Your Actions Are Deranged

Your Habits Are Defiling

And

Your Character 
Is Not 
One That Is Bright And Righteously Shining!

Sad! That's Really Sad! 

True! True! 

I Have A Simple Question

That I Want You To Uncomplicate

And

When You Have Your Answer

Please Feel Free To Explicate:

Do You Have An Unsubdued Heart

Where Selfishness And Willfulness Rule

Using You Like An Unsharp Tool!?! 

Find Out ...

How Much Does A Thought Weigh!?! 

How Much Is An Action Worth!?!

How Far Should A Habit Go

And

Why Your Character Should Be Sterling

Built Up From The Sin-Cure!

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

Brethren,

A Thought Holds The Weight Of The Intended Action!

An Action Is Worth The Input Necessary

To Make It Second Nature Aka A Habit
And

A Habit Is Integral To The Forming Of

The Anticipated Character

Which, To The Possessor

Is

Good Or Bad

Right Or Wrong

Profitable Or A Loss-Leader

Praise-Worthy Or Shameful

And

All Depends Upon Who

Is

The Key-Holder Of

Your Eternal Reward! 

So, I Ask You Plainly:
Upon Whose Name Do You Call!?! 
Do You Get Your TAHC From Satan, The Bold 
The Wicked Drug Dealer

Or

From Jesus Christ

The Great Physician

The True And Faithful Mighty Healer!?! 

Remember, Brethren 
Satan Always, Always, Enslaves
But
Jesus Christ The Righteous
Always, Always, To The Uttermost ... Saves!

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.

Carnal World: Friend Of God!?!

Receipt Of The Honors Of The Carnal World
Causes
The Church Corporate 
To Lose The Grace
- The Unmerited Favor -
Of Almighty God!

And

The Church That Is Boastful
Proud
And
Eager To Compete With The World
For Trifling Honors And Accolades
Is
Actively Making Herself 
The Very Enemy Of 
The Living Eternal Holy God!

When The Church
That Is ... The Members
Are Humble
Not Thinking Too Highly Of Self
Are Poor To Be Dependent Upon 
The Lord Of Life For Provision
And
Live Christ-Like Lives
Attaining Unto The Garment Of Praise
- The Character Of Christ -
It Is Then That She Is Most Powerful
And
Impervious
To The Machinations Of The Master Manipulator
And 
His Misguided Minions!

I Must Be Plain ...

Any Person Called Christian
"Faithfully" Practicing Primitive Godliness
And
Is 
Dearly Beloved
Highly Respected
Well Spoken Of
And
Is 
Unmolested By The World
Must Needs Take A Serious Look
At How They Are Emulating The Pattern
That Is, The Lord Jesus Christ!

The Truth Must Be Told ...

If We Are Friends Of The World
We Are, Decidedly
The Enemies Of The Living God!

Decisions Must Be Made ...

There Are Only Two Options
And
They Are Impossible To Skew:

• For Christ And Against Satan
• For Satan And Against Christ

Which One Do You Choose!?! 

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

I Am The Friend Of Christ Jesus!

I Walk With Him Each Day!

I Pray And Petition

I Love And I Bless

And

All My Known Sins

To My Heavenly Father

I Gladly Confess!

I Know That I Am A Sinner

A Sinner Needing The Savior

And

I Take Pleasure

By The Lord's Great Grace

To Go On A Diet

And

Rid Myself Of The Fat Of Sin

By

Delivering It Up

And

Burning It On The Altar Of Sacrifice

So That It Rises Up Unto The Lord

For A Sweet Smelling Savor!

I Deny The Liar!

I Do Not Sing In Compromises' Choir!

I Walk By Faith!

I Do Not Walk By Carnal Sight

For

It Is My Soul's Desire

My Lord God And King

Daily To Delight!

I Walk The Straight And Narrow

And

I Fight The Good Fight Of Faith

For

I Long To Live Forever

With The Lord Christ

And

Refuse To Let Damned Satan

My Eternal Prosperity To Blight!

The Promises Given Are Faithful!

The Promise-Keeper Is The God True!

The Time Of Delivery Is Certain

So

Do Not Permit Any Created Being

To Deflect Or Mamaguy You!

*****

Please Keep Our Savior

Our Redeemer

Our Hope

Our Peace

Our Rest

And

The Heavenly Home

Every ... Always

In Your Eye-To-Eternity View!

The Lord Is Coming Back Soon

To Redeem His Children!

I Pray That That Means

Both Me And You!
