HAPPY SABBATH + JESUS CALLS US: Come Dirty And Be Made Clean!


Image result for happy sabbath


... We Serve The Eternal God 
Who Will Accept Us As We Are!
There Is No Need To Wait For "Preparedness"
So There Is No Excuse!

Unfortunately, 
Satan Has People Believing That
Their Sin Is Too Sinful
And
Our God Is Too Holy
For Him To Accept Them As They Are
So They Must "Get Clean" From Their Sin ... First!

That's Really Sad! 

Indeed it is!
Satan Is And Always Was A Deceiver!

A Person Goes To Jesus Dirty
But He Will Not Remain That Way!

I Really Want To Walk In Faith With Jesus! 

Since That Is The Truth
And
It Is Jesus Christ Who Gives Us Daily Faith
Choose, Choose, Choose To Walk In Faith
In The Your Received Gift Of Daily Faith
And
Choose To Give Over Your Will To The Lord 
Who Gave It To You! 
Beloved, I Can't Stress Enough That
Walking In Faith Is A Choice! 

Understand This ...

Soul Surrender Is Easy And Hard
Because
Your Selfish, Willful, Self
Wants ... Desperately Desires ... To Wear The Crown
And
Sit On The Throne That Is Your Heart
Which Should Only Be For The Residence Of The Lord
By His Holy Spirit! 

There's Work To Be Done ...

You Must Deny Yourself! 
You Must Be Humble ... And Prayerful
And 
Vigorously See To It That
You Don't Look Around At Who Has What
And
Is doing Whatever!

I Hear That!

To Us All, I Say
Choose To Walk With Jesus 
Permitting Him To Lead You
And
To Be Your Unfailing Guide!
Jesus Christ Utterly Loves You 
And 
He Would Have Died To Save You, Me
Even If Any One Of Us 
Was The Only Human On Earth! 
That's Real Sacrificial Love! 
You, Me, We Are Special And Precious 
In The Lord's Holy Eyes And Heart
So, Now, Let's Think About Where That Fact Leaves Us! 

Brethren, 

We Have The Life-Delivered 
Engraved With Innocent-Blood 
Love-For-Fallen-Man Invitation
From The Only Holy Heart! 

Let's, Therefore, Consider 
What The Prophet Isaiah Has Cautioned Us:


Image result for isaiah 55:6-7 kjv

 
The Fact That We Are Encouraged 
To Seek The Savior 
While He May Be Found 
Clearly Tells Us That The Day Is Coming 
When Seeking ... Searching ... For Him 
Will Be In Vain! 

Grace, Mercy, Pardon 
And 
Peace 
Are Available Now 
While The Door Of Mercy 
Is 
Open To All Mankind! 

Today ... Is The Day! 
Today Is The Day ... Of Salvation
And 
Right Now Is The Time To Accept 
What Is Available, Accessible
And 
Free! 

Please, I Beseech Us All
Let's Not Be Among Those Who Shall Say That 
"The Summer Is Ended And We Are Not Saved!" 
Because
They Were Careless About Saving Their Own Souls! 

Please Do Not Let 
"Too Late!" 
Be Your Last Cry! 
Please Choose Everlasting Life!

Brethren, 

Be Wise Unto Salvation! 
Be Proactive While It Is Possible Today
And 
Be Assured That You Will Be Blessed
By Him Who Calls You
Who Is Ready, Willing, And Able
To Receive You! 

Jesus Christ Is Our Peace!
Please Don't Sell Peace 
To Finance A War That You ... Man ... Cannot Win!
Take Jesus Christ Now
For He Is Light And Life
And
The Only Way To Experience 
Our Father's Promised Heavenly Delights! 

Thank Almighty God, Brethren:
Jesus Christ Saves! 

AMEN!!! 


Stand Faithfully
On
The Unfailing Promises
Of
The Eternal, Holy, God!

Being Wise ... For Tomorrow!?!

All Uh Wunna Mout' Giants
Cud Go An' Shut Wunna Mout's!
None Uh We Ain't Got Nuh Tomorrow Put Down
En We Surely Ain't Even Got De Rest Uh Today!
De Lord Call We To Salvashun Today!

Preach, Barley! Preach!

I Are Not Preachin' No Sermon!
I Is Speaking De Lord's Trut'!
Tha' Good Book Does Spell It Out Plain!

Tomorrow Hah Em Own Troubles
En We Dus' Bunnies Jest Gaw In Lil' Air
En We Jest Like Dem Grasses Dat Does
Dry Up En Blow 'Way!

Wunna Lawless Peoples Does Get Me Real Vex
En I Does Fugget Weh Um Is Dat I Does Be Talking!
Please Pardon Me!

Look, People!
We Call Ourselves Intelligent
But
Intelligence Is Not Wisdom
And
Worldly Knowledge Is Nonsense To Almighty God!
We Cannot Do Anything Without The Lord

We Know Better And We Need To Do Better!

Can We Use Today's Faith 
For Tomorrow's As Yet Unknown Problem!?!

Not In This Life!

Just Because We Are Flying In The Face Of
The Living, Holy, Eternal God
And
Are Getting "Taller" Using The Unholy Machinations Of
Satan Aka King Fraud
It Does Not Mean That They Are Blessed Or Profited
Because
The Living God Already Made It Plain That
We Cannot Add To Our Stature By Worrying
Nor Can We Change The Color Of Our Hair!

Any Changes That We Make To Ourselves
Are Just Masks And Prosthetics!
We Cannot Change What Almighty God Created
No Matter What We See
Or What Others Display!

If We Are Really Wise
If We Truly Desire To Be Wise
If We Desire To Live Right In The Living God's Sight
We Need To Stick To The "Thus Saith The Lord!"
As Registered In The Good, Unfailing, Book Of Truth!

Take Heed, Brethren!
We Cannot Go Against Known Truth
Expecting That We Will Be Blessed!
Truth Cannot And Does Not Change
No Matter Which Lying Priest In A Dress Says
That He, Alone, Can Interpret The Word Of God!

Man Cannot Interpret The Word Of God!
That Is The Domain Of The Holy Spirit
And
As The Word Itself Says
The Scripture Interprets Itself
Hence The Call For Us To Dig For Hidden Treasure!

We Know Where Our Treasure Is
So Let Us Heed The Words Of King Solomon!

The Fear Of The Lord Is Wisdom 
And
The Knowledge Of The Holy Is Understanding 
And 
The Bible ... The Preserved Word Of The Eternal God 
Is 
The Gold, Silver And Diamond Mine 
Wherein Is The Treasure That Man May Dig For 
And 
Hold In His Heart Forever! 

The Treasures Of The Scriptures
- Used And Shared Generously -
Accrue To Our Eternal Profit 
- On Our Heavenly Balance Sheets -
So Let Us Shine Up Our Characters 
With A Trip Into The Mine ... The Living Word
Right Now, This Very Day, Today! 

Unimaginable Blessings Await Us
So Let's Read, Dig, And Grow Rich
And
Don't Forget To Pray!

FAITH AND HOPE: Self-Exaltation Versus Self-Examination + PRAYER: Remind Us To Always Pray, Dear Father!



It Came To Pass On A Certain Day 
In The Midst Of The Congregation That
Self-Examination Was Attacked By Self-Exaltation
Who Had Self-Sufficiency
And
Self-Indulgence 
Both Standing Close By
One On The Left Hand And The Other At His Right Hand!

For His Part ... In His Right Hand
Self-Examination Was Gently Holding 
Constant, Heartfelt, Prayer!

It Was An Uneven Match-Up From The Get-Go
And
Know-It-All Self-Exaltation
Did Not Fear ... Nor Neglect
To Tell Self-Examination So!

You Can't Even Think For Yourself!
You Are A Loser!
Look At Those Cheap Shoes On Your Feet! 
You're A Loser Always Having To "The Savior" To Creep! 

Self-Examination
In The Quiet Of His Heart
Said To Himself:
There But For Your Grace, My Lord, I Go! 
Help Me, Dear Father
My-Wise-In-His-Own-Eyes Brother To Reach! 
Please Lay On My Heart Words Of Consideration
So That I Do Not Get Into A Tongue And Teeth Collision
And Send Him Off, Indignant, To The Wily King Fraud! 


To Self-Exaltation
Self-Examination Calmly, Carefully, Deliberately, Said:

Self-Exaltation, 
I'm Sorry That You Feel That Way
But I Creep To My Lord And Savior Boldly 
So That I Do Not Indulge In Own-Sin Self-Pay! 
I Accept The Lord's Checks And Balances
And I Pray Constantly As Protection Against The Known Foe
And I Invite You To Get To Know Him Personally
So That Of Willing Sinning
You Will Choose To Let Go! 

I Was Born A Sinner
But In Sin, I Shall Not Die
Because Jesus Christ My Savior ... For Me, Personally 
On Mount Calvary Did Die! 

We Walk Together Because With Him I Do Agree
And I Choose To Humble Myself Before Him
Instead Of Exalting My Self
And Pretending To The World At Large
That I'm What, Without Him, I Can Never Be! 

I'm A Child, A Student
A Servant And A Saint! 
I've Taken Jesus Christ As My Captain
So That In The Road To Mount Zion
I Shall Not Hunger, Get Lost
Or Under The Buffeting Of The Adversary
Ignominiously Faint!

The Lord Is My Shepherd
My Rock And My Sure Refuge
And By My Following Him Faithfully
Enduringly
I Have Heaven To Gain 
And The Burning Hell To Refuse!

Every One Of Us
Be Ye Self-Exalting
Or Self-Examining
Will Have An Account To Settle
Which Will Clearly Show Our Mettle!

Your Works Will Either Stand And Prosper
Or They Will Fall To The Ground And Perish
And I Tell You Truly
The Reward Of All You Self-Indulgent Ones
Is Not Something That I Would Relish Or Cherish!

I Pray For You With All Sincerity!
I Speak To With Love ... In Christian Charity 
And Beg You, Please
Reform Your Ways Because Before Very Long
We Shall Stand Before The Lord, The King
The Ancient Of Days
Who Knows, Who Sees, Who Feels
And Is In All Things!
We Created Beings ... His Creatures
Cannot Hide From Him
A Single, Solitary Thing!

I Examine Myself
To Know My Every Weakness
And I Repair Unto Him
Who Strengthens Me To Be Like He Is!

I Cannot Be Like You
For I Choose To Be Like
Who Is The Author And Finisher Of My Faith
And The Very One Who Forgives My Sin
And Who Showers Me With Unmerited Favor 
Which Is His Gift Of Moment By Moment
Free Grace!

Remember This, My Misguided Friend 
When You Love The Lord Of Life
You Truly Love Your Self! 
When You Put Your Self 
Before The Lord Of Life 
You Are Your Own God 
And You Earn For Your Own Self
The False God's Reward! 
Worship The Living, Holy, God! 
Humble Your Self
And Stop Being Proud! 

Satan Is Proud! 
Satan Loves Self! 
Satan Is The Father Of Lies! 
Get Him Out Of Your Bosom 
And Get Off Of His Reserved-For-Damnation Shelf! 
Reach For The Extended Hand Of Hope
And Stop Letting Satan Choke You
With Your Own Self-Made Cherished-Sin Rope!

Self-Exaltation Could Not Utter
A Single, Solitary, Note! 

To Strike While The Iron Was Still Hot
Self-Examination Then Said:



Image result for psalm 36:7-9


 
Self-Exaltation,
Please Take Comfort In The Lord Jesus Christ
The Lord Of Life And Light 
Who Promises Us His Fatness ... His Abundant Blessings 
Both Now And Forevermore! 

To The Gathered Brethren, He Said:
 
Brethren,

What We See With Our Blind Eyes 
Is 
Narrow And Finite 
So Let Us By The Strength Of Faith 
And 
The Courage Of The Blessed Hope
Take Jesus At His Living Word 
So That We Will Enjoy All That Is In 
His River Of Pleasure! 

Trust, Obey, Pray
Give Praise
Do Good
Endure Through The Fight Of Faith
Be Faithful
Learn All Things From The Lord Jesus
And
We Can All Be Sure That We Will Be Gloriously Blessed! 
Eternity Awaits Us!

PRAYER:

Dear Father,
Please Grant Me
The Strength Of Faith
And
The Courage Of Hope!!
Increase Our Love For Our Lord Jesus
And
Bless Us To Be Tied Up
In Salvation
So That The Life's Work
That Is Sanctification
Does Not Become For Us
A Wink And A Nod
Popular Conversational Trope!

Remind Us Always, Father
That Men Should Pray
And
Not Faint
And
Keep Us In Your Holy Care!

Please Bless Us To Continually Hear
The Sweet Spirit Of Truth
And
To Obey The Gospel Call
So That We Shall Indeed Be Blessed
For It Is In Jesus Christ's Holy Name
That We Sincerely Pray And Humbly Plead!
Please Come For Us Soon!
AMEN!

Let Your Light Shine!?!


Image result for teach the children right kjv


Brethren,

I Am Crushed!
I Am Offended, Sad, Perturbed And Seriously Bothered
By Something I Saw Today
And
I Pray The Lord For Help For Those Involved 
And 
For Us Who Observe These Things!

Today, I Was In A Business Establishment
Seated, Having Been Seen
And Awaiting Continuing Service
When Two Adult Females And A Small Child Entered!

The Little Child, A Girl, In Pink
Soon Came To Where I Was And She Started Singing
"I Don't Care What They Say ...!"

Okay!

She And I Soon Started Playing "Peekaboo, I See You!"
She Was Cute And Precocious ... A Live Wire!

In Her Constant Perambulations
She Went To One Of The Ladies
Who Were Both At The Counter!
She Touched The Lady And Said:

"Daddeee!"

My Ears ...!?!

I Reserved Judgment
Considering ... I Don't Know What
But
She Came Back Over And We Started Our Game
And, Again
She Went To This Lady  
And
This Poor, Innocent, Child
Called This Lady: "Daddy!" ... Again
And 
The Lady-Daddy Answered Her ... Again!

Lord Jesus, Save Us!

Just Repeating This Is Making Me Feel Ill!

How!?!
Why!?!

I Want To Know To What End This Is Happening
To That Poor Little Child!?!

These Are Questions Needing Answers That
Only The Lord In Heaven Can Provide!
All I Know Is That I Was Made Very Sad
By What Was Occurring In That Business Place!
Nevertheless, Apropos Nothing
The Two Ladies Were Polite And Soft-Spoken
And The Little Girl Seemed Well Care For
But ...!

... But What Of That Dear Child's Spiritual Growth!?!

While It Is A Good Question, Beloved
I Simply Have No Answer
And
That Is Making Me Very, Very, Sad!

Brethren,

We See Worldly People Doing Worldly Things!
Isn't It Fair To Also Say That 
Worldly People See Us Professing Christians 
Doing Things ... Sometimes Ungodly Things
But, Hopefully
More Often Than Not
They See Us Doing Good And Godly Things
While We Walk Under The Blood-Stained Banner Of
Jesus Christ The Lord!?!

I Would Sincerely Hope And Pray That
My Christian Example, Plainly Displayed
Would Cause Anyone Who Sees Me
To Ask Themselves A Question ... And Ask Me, Too
To Tell Them What Makes Me Different
And Also Question Themselves 
About Why Our Lifestyles Are Different And Divergent
And, Thereafter, Seek The Savior!

The Bible Says
Let Your Light Shine!

The Bible Says That We Are A Spectacle 
To Angels And To Men!

The Bible Also Says
Live At Peace With All Men Where Possible
And That Can Be Somewhat Difficult
When Our Lifestyle Confronts Their "Lifestyle!"

Any Professed Christian 
Seeing Everything That Is Wrong With The World
And
Is Comfortable With What Is Wrong With The World
And
Is Walking This Life At Peace With The World 
And 
Causing No Offense
- By Their Professed-Christian Practiced Lifestyle -
To Those Who Know Not Jesus Christ The Lord 
Those Who Don't Care To Know Jesus Christ The Lord
Those Who Cannot Be Bothered To Know Jesus Christ The Lord
Those Who See No Profit In Knowing Jesus Christ The Lord
And
Those Who Know The Profit In Knowing Jesus Christ The Lord
But
Enjoy The "Profit" And The "Benefits" Of 
Living In Known-Sin Better
Seriously Needs To Do An Inventory 
And 
Reevaluate Their Commitment To Almighty God! 

Our Christian Walk Should Be Such That 
We Are Able To Live With Hope 
And 
Pray With King David
Asking The Lord To Be Our Shelter 
And 
Defence Against Our Known And Rabid Enemies
Who May Hate Us Because We Live Right
By The "Thus Saith The Lord!" 

By God's Great Grace
Let's Bravely Shine Our Lights In This Dark World 
And 
Leave The Consequences To Jesus Who Alone Saves!
Sometimes The Only Bible That A Person Reads
Is
The Life That We, As Professing Christians, Lead! 

Whatever Happens
Let Us Not Compromise Our Faith
To Make "Friends" In This World!" 

Indeed!
Let's Pray And Plod On!

Let's Do The Good We Can
For Whom We Can
When We Can
Where We Can
And 
Always Remember That
Only Jesus Christ Saves!
We Must Seek After The Good Of Our Fellow Man!

AMEN!!

And 
In Gratitude, I Answered His Call!
I Accept That My Life Is My Own
But 
Not To Do Whatever My Flesh Requests
And
For The Very Reason

I Have Chosen To Give Back To My Dear Father
The Sovereign, Free Will And Free Choice
That He Gave Unto Me
And
The Path That I Walk Which He, Alone, Makes Straight
And
I Choose To Listen To The Still, Small, Voice Of Truth
Truth For Today ... Always Today
And
I Hold On To The Extended Hand Of Help
With Living Hope
Even As I Lean On The Everlasting Arm
Even As I Shelter Under His Wings
Even As I Rest On His Breast
Listening To The Holy Heart Which Broke
And
Died
With And For Love For Me!

I Believe My Dear Father

And
I, By His Grace
Intend To Endure In This To-Everlasting-Life Race!
My Father Promises That For Me ... In Heaven
In His House
There Is A Personal Place!
I Shall Not His Holy Name Disgrace!

Brethren, 

Please Fortify Your Mind 
By Reading The Living Word Constantly 
And 
Give Jesus Christ Your Fears: 
He Gives To You His Perfect Peace!
For Your Purchased Soul He Sacrificially Cares!

REJOICE: Jesus Christ Utterly Saves!

I Went Before The Lord Of Life
Covered In The Death That Is The Wages Of Sin
Pleading For The Promised, Offered, And Available Grace
And
Confessing And Repenting Of My Known Disgrace
And
He Who Is Hope, Help And Sure Salvation
Grandly, Gently, Joyfully ... Lovingly
Invited Me To Enter Into His Warm, Welcoming, Embrace
For Healing
For Cleansing
For Blessing Most Profound
And
In The Rapture Of Willingly Given Forgiveness
I Broke Into Glad Song!

Before My Lord, I Humbly Stand
Cleansed From Sin! 
I'm A New Human With A Heart Of Flesh
A Tongue To Speak Peace
Ears No Longer Tickled
And
Eyes That See Truth Most Clear!
I Stand Before My King Without Fear!

I Now Have A Heart Willing To Praise My God!
I Now Have A Cleansed Tongue Able To Condemn Sin, Self 
And 
Satan The God-Fraud!
I Now Have Unstopped, Listening,
Ears That Know The Lord Of Glory's Truth
So That I Can Recognize The Adversary's Lies
And
I Now Have Cleansed And Focused Eyes That 
See The Holy God 
Who Is Guiding Me To The Great Reward!
He Heard My Humble Cry!

Lord, 
I Have Placed My Hand In Thine!
Please Go Before Before Me:
Please Keep Me In Line
Inside Your Hedge Of Protection
Under The Shelter Of Your Wings
Inside Your Strong Tower
In Your Heart Which In Love For Me Sings!

I Love You, Lord!
Please Bless Me!
Please Increase My Faith!
Please Pour Out Of Your Sweet Holy Spirit
Upon Me
And
Please Take Me To The Water
To The River Of The Water Of Life
When Ends The Carnal Strife
And
Begins The Day That Is
The Start Of Our Eternal Life!

I Am Redeemed!

We Who Have The All-Seeing
All-Knowing, Ever-Present, Holy God
For Our Guide Through Life 
Do, Indeed, Have Very Good Reasons To Rejoice 
And 
Shout For Joy! 

We Are Able To Close Our Carnal, Fallible, Eyes 
And
Through The Eyesight Of Holy Faith
Follow Jesus Christ 
On The Road That Will Always Lead Us Safely To Safety 
And 
Ultimately 
To The Eternal Home Of The Forever Blessed! 

We Are Ground Doves 
But 
Our God Is The Eagle With Aerial View 
Who Ever Takes Care Of 
His Believing, Trusting, Obedient Children!
Brethren, That's Me And You, Too! 

Keep Your Heart In The Faith Of Jesus Christ
And 
Dare To Rejoice In The Lord Always!
