PRAYER: Father, I Know That You Hold My Hand!

Father,

I Am Willing To Follow You!

Lead Me!

I Am Willing To Walk!

Guide Me!

I Am Willing To Learn!

Teach Me!

I Am Willing To Speak

So Please Grant Me Utterance

And

Be With Me

To Guard Direct

And

Correct Me

Even As I Endeavor

To Do As You Bid Me This Day!

Father,

I Desire To Be A Child

After Your Heart!

Help Me To Daily

- Hour By Hour And  Moment By Moment -

Rely Upon You

The Holy And Eternal God!

I Desire, Lord

The Will

To Let Your Spirit

My Very Soul Fill

So That I May Follow

Your Blessed Directions!

And, Father

When I Sin

- Never With Deliberation

Or Presumption - 

I Pray For That Spirit

That Permits Me To Accept

Reproof And Correction!

Father,

I Willingly Acknowledge

My Known Sin Against You

The Holy God

And

I Humbly Beg Your Pardon

And

I Ask You

To Help Me Not To Again

Commit The Sins Of Yesterday

For

I Desire To Grow

In Saving Faith Through Grace!

In Your Word, Lord

You Say That 

Rebellion Is As The Sin Of Witchcraft

And

Stubbornness Is As Iniquity And Idolatry!

Pity Me, Lord

And

Make Me Anew

And

Cleanse Me From Those Things

Which Will Keep Me

From Walking To

And

With You!

Help Me, Lord

Not To Sacrifice

My Faithful Trust In You

To Guarantee My Personal Safety

In Jesus Christ's Holy Name, I Plead

For I Truly Know

That You Do Indeed Hold My Hand!

I Love You, Lord! 

Please Have Mercy

And

Continue To Bless Me

According To Your Will

And

In Your All-Knowing Way!

AMEN.

No Need To Fear!

A Rebel ...
A Rebellion
Always Has A Host

BUT
The People Of God
Are Always Few
AND
This Should Be A Lesson
To Those Who Name Christ
AND
Call The Living God Their Own
That Neither Might
Nor Power
Does The Battle Win
BUT
It Is The Spirit Of The Lord
That For Us Faithful
Does The Victorious Fighting!

God IS For His Faithful Ones!
They Do Not Walk
Nor Fight Alone
For God
Creator
Sustainer
Healer
Leader
Rock Of Offence
AND
Defence
Sees All
Knows All

AND
Is In All
AND
Is Life's Traffic Ably Directing!

Do Not Trust In Men!
Do Not Trust War's Weapons!
Do Not Trust Your Eyes!
Do Not Trust What Carnal Minds
- Ever Sinful -
Evilly Devise
BUT
Place Your Trust
Willfully
Wittingly
Conscientiously
Truthfully

AND
Faithfully
Knowing
That The God Of Grace
- Holy -
Already Has Your Victory In Place!

However  ...

Dear Brother
Dear Sister
Dear Friend
Let Not The Sin Of Doubt
Be A Part Of Your Undertaking
For
Doubt Will Be Your Undertaker
AND
The Very Devil
Will Be Your Decked-Out Hearse
AND
Lost Will Be Your Condition -
Please Do Not Live
Like The One Accursed!

Jesus Christ Is The Captain

AND
The Commander Of The Faith Ship!
Hear Him!
Obey Him!
Trust Him For Your Victories
- Your Win Against Sin -

AND
Do Not Turn Aside To Idols
Nor Go Back
- Like A Dog -

To Your Vomit!

Stand Firm
In The Unyielding Faith
Of Christ Jesus
AND
Glorious Heaven
- In The Great Day -
Will Be
Your Great Reward Pay!

By Faith ...

Put Your Foot Forward!
Put Your Shoulder
To The Salvation Plow!
Eat The Bread Of Grace
AND
Drink From The Cup Of Mercy
AND
You Will See Life Clearly!

Drink Greedily!

Eat Hungrily!

AND

Live

With Hope Everlasting

Starting ... NOW!

Trust The Living Word

AND

Grab Hold ... By Faith

Of

 The Outstretched Hand

Of

The Holy Jesus

Who Is Our Way To Life

AND

Nothing Will Pry You Free

- What He Has He Holds -

For He Is Our True

AND

Only

Salvation!

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

A Heart Beating For Jesus

Will Never Wander To Sin

Like A Grazing Cow

Wanders After Green Grass!

EASE AND PROSPERITY: Costs vs. Payments!

Suicidality
Homicidality
Mania
AND
Degeneracy
Are Conditions Wrought
In Ease And Prosperity!
Spare Yourself That Fate!

There Is Discontent In Contentedness
AND
There Is Contentedness In Discontent
AND
Ease Brings No Satisfaction
For The Carnal Soul Always Wants More
AND
More

Is A Commodity
Not Bought Bartered Nor Sold
BUT

Lives With The One Careless
In The Care
Of Its Own Soul!

Oh, That The People Of God
Would Recognize
That Real Danger Which Lies Between
Ease
AND
Prosperity!

Oh, That They Would Recognize
That There Is Real Blessing In Trials
For They Do Bring
- If With Grace Faithfully Met -
Real
AND
Lasting
Spiritual Prosperity!

Man Was Never Created

To Live A Life Of Useless Ease!

Of Note
Are Two Cases
That All Committed-To-Christ Christians

Should Know:
The Case Of King David
AND
The Babylonian King
Nebuchadnezzar
Of Old!

Both Were Men Of Ability
AND
Wisdom
I Tell You

AND

Both Were Felled
By True Creature Comforts
Which, Prior
Had Been Out Of View!

Lust Of The Eye
Lust Of The Flesh
AND
The Pride Of Life
Are The Means Whereby
Many A Capable Frugal Man
Has Been At Their Personal Waterloo
Felled
AND
If We Will Take Note
Of Sodom And Gomorrah, Too
We Will Note Of A Surety
That Idleness
AND
Fullness Of Bread
AND
Unkindness
Was What Cast Them All
Into A Visible Burning Hell!

Brethren,
Look Around You
AND
Behold Those Who Live At Ease
No Morals
No Moral Compass
AND
A Surfeit Of Killing Disease!

There Is

No Heart For Another
No Love For The Holy God
A Penchant For Putrid Pastimes
AND
Willing Fraternization
With The Greatest Of All Times
The Rebellious Goat Fraud!

I Was Taught While Still Young
By A Respected Employer
That If You Want Work Done Right
Hire Someone "Hungry!"
Someone Lean
Someone Who Has The Will
For Survival
For Accomplishment

AND
Not Someone Who Had It All Seen
AND
Was "Fat And Flourishing!"

AND
With Nothing Left To Attain
AND
I Took That Lesson To Hear
Added It To My
"Willing To Try!"
- Given By My High School Teacher
As My Character -
Name!

Let's Get Our Priorities In Order!

I Say To All Of Us ...

Beware Of Rabidly Seeking After
Physical Prosperity 

AND

Personal Ease
For
In The Capture
You May Find Your Soul
Death-Dealingly Diseased!

I Also Say To Us All  ...

Approach Getting Into The Living Kingdom
As Would A Shark
Going After His Daily Meal!

Be Single Minded
AND
Act

With Proper Consideration

AND

Zeal!

Prioritize Your True Prosperity
AND
Wait

AND

Faithfully Work Patiently
For The Eternal Ease Of Pleasant Work

- Old Things Will Have Passed Away -

For
Now Is Not The Season
To Be Fat And Foolish
For
Satan Is Waiting
To Savage You
To Cut You Off
From Salvation
By Getting You Prostrate Before Him
To Make You Grovel On Your Knees!

The Love

Of

Ease And Prosperity

Cost

Lot's Wife Her Life!

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

The Untrammelled Desire

For

Earthy Ease And Prosperity

Negates

The Need For Jesus Christ

In Your Personal Life!

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

Look-Back Syndrome

Will Never Cause

A Sinner

- Supposedly Saved -

To Salvation

To Fly!

Don't Buy The Lost Liar's Lofty Lie!

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! 

For Whom Did Jesus Christ Die?! + PRAYER: Lord, Please Send Help!

Satan
- The Bold Fraud -

Has

The Best Advertising Ever Bought:

Purchased-By-Sin Humans
Who
Tell Outright Lies
Execute False Oaths
Practice Half-Truths
And
Indulge In Evasions And Vacillations
For
Fleeting Fame And Fortune
And
Their Attendant

 Tenuous Hold

Access Reach
And
Grasp!

I Have Heard
Some Pretty Interesting Excuses For Sin
In My Time
BUT
This One Absolutely
Has To Take The Cake:

Just Because
The Living God
Who Gives Gifts Unto Men
Gave An Individual
The "Voice Of An Angel"
"To Bless Mankind With Its Beauty"
He Or She Is "Free"
To Indulge In An Accursed Lifestyle
Just Because Of ... The Gift!

Lord,
Please Protect Us
From
Our Gross Folly!

The Questionable Comment
Went So Far As To Intimate That
He Who Sins Because Of His Fleshly Desire
Sins Because 
"They Are Made That Way!"
AND
The Eternal God Has To Save Them
AND
They Can't Be Lost
Because God Himself Gifted Them
Their Phenomenal Gift
AND
The Gift
Is What Is Their Protection
From The Coming Wrath Of God!

I Thought Jesus Christ Was Our Protection!

If This Argument Holds "True"
The Liar ... Born
Thief ... Born
Murderer ... Born
Adulterer ... Born
AND
Gross Sinner ... Born
Can NOT Benefit From
God's Paid For By Blood
Saving Grace
Through Faith!

Ergo ... 

JESUS DIED FOR NOTHING!

PRAYER:

Father,
Jesus Saves
And
Saves To The Uttermost
But

Satan Is Colorfully Sending The World

The Lying Word

That

Your Ambassadors Have Failed
And
Are Failing

In The Great Commission
Because There Is No Commission!

Father,
Satan Wants You
To Shut Down
Your Grace Unto Salvation Shop

And

Is Telling All Who Will Listen
Because They Are Beguiled

That

Jesus Died For Absolutely Nothing

Because

Man Cannot Not Sin

And

That You Will Save All Man

In Sin

And

Not

Out Of Sin!
Perish The Great Lie!

In Jesus Christ's Name

Please Send Heavenly Help!

Pour Out Your Holy Spirit

And

Grant Us Your Grace

For

Honest Men's Feet Are Dragging

And

The Power Of The Word

Is Spoken Of

As Abyssmally Weak!

Lord, Lift Us Up!
Gird Up Our Loins!
Firm Our Resolve!
Strengthen Our Faith
And
Our Hands
And
Grant Us Daily Faith And Grace
And
Courage
For Walking Right
On The Straight And Narrow Way!

Help Us, Father

For We Do Truly Love You

And

Believe Your Holy Word
And
Desire To Do The Work
You Have Given Unto Us To Do!

Save Us
For We Do Your Loving Favor Seek!
Have Mercy
For Only You Can
And, Please
Let Your Holy
Your Immutable Word
Eternally Stand!

Deny The Liar
His False-Oath Victory
And
Please Come Soon
Letting The Blood-Bought
Thankful Church
- In Glorious Victory -
Triumphantly Stand
In The Presence
Of
The Holy Son Of God
The Returning Son Of Man!
We Worship You
And
Give You All Our Grateful Praise!

AMEN.

HAPPY SABBATH + PRAYER: My Soul Desires ...!

I Am Very Grateful
That The Living God Is The Living God 

Almighty

Holy

Long-Suffering

Patient

Kind

Omnipotent

Omniscient

Omnipresent

AND

I Am Not
For I Could Not Tolerate
Our Avid Indulgence
In Soul-Destroying Rot
Our Insistence On Waywardness
Our Penchant For Self-Inflicted Pain
Our Willful Walking In Sin To Get Gross Gain

AND
Our Purile Repentances
AND
Doing It All
Again

Again

AND

Again!

PRAYER:

Father, 

I Thank You! 

I Bless You! 

Your Word Is True

And

You Are Truth! 

You Are The Faithful God

And

The Blessing God, Too!

 

You Are Indeed Toward Us Longsuffering

And

I Praise

I Honor

I Glorify You

And

In Humility

With A Soul Sorrowful Over Sin

Father,

I Open My Heart's Door!

Please Take Possession

Let Your Holy Spirit Move In

And

Take Full Control!

I've Been Willful! 

I've Been Wayward! 

I've Been A Wanderer Bold! 

Lord, 

I Admit It

Sometimes My Heart Toward You

Was Cold

But

You Have Been Faithful

Tolerant

Patient

And

In My Time Of Ignorance

You Winked At My Folly

And Continued

To Me To Be Kind!

Thank You!

  

I Worship You!

 

Father, You Are

- Please Be - 

Forever Mine!

Let Me Not Again

Turn Aside To Idols

As Would A Dog To Its Vomit

As Would A Swine

To Its Wallowing Pit

For, Lord

I Now Know Better!

Please, Dear Lord

Renew Me

By Your Spirit

For I Have No Desire

- In Jesus' Name I Plead - 

To Suffer 

The Eternal Separation Blot!

I Desire To See You In Peace

And

With Holy Gladness! 

Father,

I Desire To Experience

The Forever Free-From-Sin Release! 

I Desire To Behold My Redeemer

Celebrated

In All His Glory

And 

I Desire To See The End

Of The Gospel Story

Which Is

The Start Of My Physical Voyage

To Heaven's Glories!

Father, 

I Beseech You!
How I Beseech You

To Help Me

To Stand Firm In The Faith

To Be Constant And Faithful

For I Want No Part

Of That Fallen One's

Coming Disgrace!

Lord,

I Desire That Free Salvation!

I Desire To Live At Home With You!

Father,

I Desire To Live

In The Prepared-For-Me Place!

I Love You, Lord

Have Mercy

And

Please Continue To Bless

For I Ask All

In The Worthy Name Of Christ Jesus

The Holder Of The Hands

Of

The Truly Blessed! 

AMEN.
