Buying Peace!?! + PRAYER ... For Guidance!

... And I Went To The Village Shop
To Buy A Little Peace!

A Piece Of What!?!

A Piece Of Peace!

Mercy, Lord! Mercy!

You Can't Buy A Little
Far Less A Lot Of Peace
AND

Definitely Not
In The Village Shop!
What's Wrong With You?!

I NEED Peace!

Okay, Then!
You NEED Jesus!

I Already Got Jesus!
I Need PEACE!

Alright, Then!
You Need JESUS!

I Said I Have ...!

...If You Really HAD Jesus
You Would Really HAVE Peace!

Huh?!
I Go To Church Regularly!
I Pay Tithes And Offerings!
I Do Work On Four Committees!
I Run The Dorcas League!
I Teach Bible School!
I Sing In The Church Choir!
I'm In The Singing Band!
I Sponsor Three Orphans!
I Work Hard For Jesus!
I've GOT Me Some Jesus!

What You've Got
Is A Heart For Church Work
BUT
Have You Given Your Heart To Jesus?!

Have You Confessed Your Sin
AND
Repented 
AND
Turned Away From Sinning?!

Do You Say Your Prayers
Really Communing With The Lord?!
Do You Read And Study The Living Word
AND
Are You Walking In Faith With The Lord?

Ahhh... Uh mmm!

Thought So!

Jesus Said:

My Peace I Give Unto You!

You Can't Get It For Yourself!

Money Can't Buy It!
Intellect Can't Assume It!
AND
Man's Vaunted Wisdom Can't Avail Itself Of It!

Peace Is A Gift!

And, Furthermore

Within Peace
Is Forgiveness Of Sin
AND

Joy In Jesus
AND

Rest ... For The Soul!

There Is No Peace For The Wicked
AND

No Matter How Much You Go To Church

And Say
Lord! Lord!
There Is No Peace
No Joy In This Life
Without Forgiveness For Sin!

Peace Comes Of The Love Relationship
With Our Lord!

So, Pray Tell

How Come I'm Now Hearing This
... And From A Pedestrian ... Like You!?!

Nobody Ever Told Me
That Forgiveness Of Sin
Is Tied Up In Peace!
All I Ever Heard ... Hear 
Is Do Good Works!
Be Kind!
Be Helpful!
Share With The Poor ...!

Sweetie, All That Is Going To Get You
Is A Free Berth In The Lake Of Fire!

Are You Mad?!
I've Devoted My Life To The Church ...!

... But You Have Not Given Over

Committed 

Devoted

- Surrendered -

Your Life To The Lord Christ!

Just Doing Church Work

AND

Not Surrendering To God

- In Christ Jesus -

Is Like Going To Work For A Corporation

AND

Faithfully Working

Without Them Knowing That They Hired You!

There Ain't No Paycheck With Your Name On It!

How Straaange ... I Thought God Knew Everything!

Almighty God Does, Indeed

Know Everything

BUT ...

You Still Have To Finalize The Transaction

By Sending Him The Word Of Your Agreement!

You Have To Make The Verbal Commitment!

Word Is Bond!

If What You Are Saying Is True

- And I Don't Doubt You -

Then ... I Guess Not!

I Was Told 
AND
I Sincerely Believed
That Working For The Lord 

IS
Devotion To God
And That If I Work Faithfully For God
I Will Be Saved By Christ The Lord!

I Am Pleased To Work!

Sorry, My Dear!

Pleasure Ain't Peace!

Peace Is A Gift!
Salvation Is A Gift!
Forgiveness Is A Gift!
The Love Of God Is A Gift!
AND

All Are Compliments Of Jesus Christ
AND
Without These

No Matter How Sincerely You Believed

That Work Is Commitment To God

Without Change
You Will Be Sincerely Lost!

You Cannot Work For God

AND

Live And Play With The Devil!

Read Isaiah 26:3!
The Lord Will Keep You In Perfect Peace
If Your Mind Is Stayed
-Anchored -
On Him
AND
You Trust In Him!

And ...

Without Forgiveness Of Sin

You Are At War With God!
Sooo ... No Peace!

That Is So Unfair!
I Didn't Know That I Had To Confess Sin
AND
Repent Of Sin
To Get Forgiveness

AND
Salvation

AND
To Gain ... Peace!

You Know Now, Love!

Yes!

Now I Know!

I've Been So Very, Very, Miserable!

I Was Getting Desperate!

You Would Have To Have Been Desperate
To Go To The Village Shop
To Buy
"A Piece Of Peace!"

Yuh Think!!

PRAYER:

Grant Us Your Grace, Lord!

Give Unto Us

The Treasured Gift Of Your Peace!

Bless Us To Do Your Will

And

From Sin

Grant Us Needed Relief!

We Are Willing Workers, Father!

Please Guide Us Along The Way

And

Help Us To Speak Peace

Whatever It Is

- In Your Name -

That We Do And Say!

Remember The Brethren

Those Near And Those Far

And

Bless Them

According To Your Will

So That They Will Trust
The Word
Of

Our Savior's Interceding

As We Against

The Devil And Sin

Spar!

Forgive Us Our Trespasses

Against The Holy God

And

Bless Us

Lord, Bless

To Have Faith

For
Our Trusty Conveyance

Our Always-Fueled

And

Ever-Operational

Can't-Break-Down

Motor Car!

We Love You, Lord
And
In Jesus' Name, We Humbly Plead!

AMEN.

VESPERS AT THE END OF THE SABBATH: The Bible Writes Our Story ...!

Dear Brethren Greatly Beloved,

I Desire To Write A Story
Paragraph By Paragraph
With Each Paragraph Being 

A King James Bible Text!

I Request That Each One Of Us Add 

A Text Or Two
Or Three Or Four
Of Our Personal Choosing
AND

Send It On To Other Brethren
Unmindful
Not Knowing
- By The Addition -
How The Story Will End!

Each One Of Us
Has A Different Life Experience!
Each One Of Us Has Texts That Are Close
AND
Decidedly Personal
To Our Hearts
BUT
I Request
That When You Add A Known Text
That You Also Add A Text Not Yet Memorized
AND

By So Doing
Also Learn Something New Along The Way!
Let The Story - Fluid -

Disclose The Love Of God
That Can Never From Us Depart!

33 Be not deceived: evil communications corrupt good manners.

KJV Psalms 1
1 Blessed is the man that walketh not in the counsel of the ungodly, nor standeth in the way of sinners, nor sitteth in the seat of the scornful.
2 But his delight is in the law of the LORD; and in his law doth he meditate day and night.
3 And he shall be like a tree planted by the rivers of water, that bringeth forth his fruit in his season; his leaf also shall not wither; and whatsoever he doeth shall prosper.

KJV Job 19
25 For I know that my redeemer liveth, and that he shall stand at the latter day upon the earth:
26 And though after my skin worms destroy this body, yet in my flesh shall I see God:
27 Whom I shall see for myself, and mine eyes shall behold, and not another; though my reins be consumed within me.

KJV Psalms 2
1 Why do the heathen rage, and the people imagine a vain thing?

KJV Psalms 3
1 LORD, how are they increased that trouble me! many are they that rise up against me.
2 Many there be which say of my soul, There is no help for him in God. Selah.
3 But thou, O LORD, art a shield for me; my glory, and the lifter up of mine head.
4 I cried unto the LORD with my voice, and he heard me out of his holy hill. Selah.
5 I laid me down and slept; I awaked; for the LORD sustained me.

KJV Psalms 2
10 Be wise now therefore, O ye kings: be instructed, ye judges of the earth.
11 Serve the LORD with fear, and rejoice with trembling.
12 Kiss the Son, lest he be angry, and ye perish from the way, when his wrath is kindled but a little. Blessed are all they that put their trust in him.

KJV Psalms 23
1 The LORD is my shepherd; I shall not want.
2 He maketh me to lie down in green pastures: he leadeth me beside the still waters.
3 He restoreth my soul: he leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his name's sake.
4 Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me.
5 Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies: thou anointest my head with oil; my cup runneth over.
6 Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life: and I will dwell in the house of the LORD for ever.

KJV 1 Corinthians 15
51 Behold, I shew you a mystery; We shall not all sleep, but we shall all be changed,

KJV Psalms 51
10 Create in me a clean heart, O God; and renew a right spirit within me.
11 Cast me not away from thy presence; and take not thy holy spirit from me.

13 Then will I teach transgressors thy ways; and sinners shall be converted unto thee.

Can Ever It Grind Down!

CROSS-ROAD: Faith! + PRAYER ...By Faith!

Faith Came To The Cross-Road
AND
The Decision Had To Be Made
So Faith Decided To Take A Rest
Upon A 

"Thus Saith The Lord!"AND
By So Doing
Faith And Doubt
- As Walking Companions -
Were Separated
Forever ... Divided!

Waivering Doubt 

Roundly Derided Firm Faith 

Who Was Standing Stout!

Faith Had Butt Upon Truth
- The Word Of God -
AND
Assent ... Agreement
Had Been The Only Position To Take
Since Faith Had Decided
To Walk Away From Sin
AND
Trust In The Word!

Trust
Required A Stop
A Think
A Bold Reasoning
A Decision For Life
- On The Merit Of The One Who Is The Word Of God -
A Turning Away From The Path Of Sin
- The Path To Sin -
A Walking By Faith
- In Faith -
On The Path To New Life
Completely Rejecting
The Old Way That Takes Life
AND
Genuinely Trusting
The Giver Of Life's Plan
That
- Come Hell Or High -
Faith Shall Survive The Mortal Strife
AND SHALLUpon Heaven's Table Land
Eternally Stand
In The Glorious Presence Of
The Son Of God
The Savior Of Man!

Faith Apprehended
- Laid Hold -
Christ Jesus!
Faith Appropriated
- Held On -
Christ Jesus As His Very Own!
Faith Assumed
- By Saving Faith -
The Character Of Christ
AND
Took To Himself
Jesus Christ's Mission Of Mercy
- As A Love Offering To God -
For His Very Own!

Hear Unshakable Faith Pray ...

Jesus,

I Love You!

I Call You Mine!

I Trust You!

I Bless You!

And

I Call You

Almighty God

I Just Cast Them Off

For

I Know That My God Is Able

So Satan

Over Me

Won't Get The Last Laugh!

In Your Time

In Your Way

Do For Me What God Wills

For I

- In Obedience To Your Ways -

Know That

Because Of Your Love To Me

And

My Trust Love And Confidence In You

Life And Unregenerate Man's  Lawlessness

In The Covenant Rainbow!

I Accept The Gift

In Jesus Christ's Calvary Sacrifice

And

For This

I Shall Dare

To Stand For Faith

- In Faith -

With Christ

Set Apart

Alone

For He Did

For My Sin

Atone!

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

A Leap Of Faith

Is

A Mind Wide!

HAPPY SABBATH + PRAYING: Dragon Slaying!

Growing Careless In Prayer
Was Becoming Fearless
Living For The Dare
That The Devil Took Pleasure In Presenting!

Growing Careless In Prayer
Was Bold
AND
Took His Share Of Heaven's Gold
AND
Rolled The Dice
Until He Had Practically
Sold Out His Soul!

Weak
AND
Nearly Broken

AND
Pocket To Let
Save For A Train Token
He Let Out A Frenzied Cry
AND
Sent Up His Last Prayer
Which Was Gracefully Accepted
Mercifully Not Rejected
AND SOONHelp For The Listing Soul
Was On The Way!

Lord,
I Have Played The Fool!
I Permitted Satan To Use Me Like A Tool!
I Walked In Pride
And By Sin
I Got Schooled!

I Have Lost My Way
I Forgot The Debt Of Mine
For Which The Beloved Paid
And
My Back
By The Devil
Is Well And Truly Flayed!

I Have Revelled In Sin!
I Thought The Lottery I Did Win
But What I Had Won Was A Waste
For
Sweet Did Turn Bitter
My Joy Turned To Sadness
And
All Around Me Is The Litter
Of Accusation's Sniping Twitter!

I Am Sorry!
I Repent!
I Have The Dew Of Youth Misspent
And All I Have Left To My Name
Is A Train Token!

Child,

Open Your Hand!

Look At The Token!

The Superscription

Is That Of The Son Of Man!

Give Him His Due

And

Take His Hand

For It Is To You Extended

And

In His Truth

By Faith

- In Obedience -

You Will Stand!

Growing Careless

Now Grown Careful In Prayer

Took The Lovingly Extended Hand!
The Lord Gave Him A Robe

AND
He Was Hugged Close

AND
Felt Whole

AND

There Was Great Rejoicing
Over The One
Returned To The Safe-Sheep Fold!

Hear Grown Careful In Prayer Speak:

From That Day
I Walked Straight!
With My Prayer Life
I No Longer Played
For
A Life Without Prayer
Is A Life
Where Lackadaisical Sheep By Angry Dragon
Will Be Slayed!

Fervent Praying

Is

Dragon Slaying!

PRAYER FOR THE PEOPLE ... In The Midst Of The Storm!

In This Hour Of Trial

In The Name Of Jesus Christ The Righteous!

We Love You, Lord!

Our Lives Are In Your Hands - Remember Us!

AMEN.

GODLINESS: Real Gain! + PRAYER: Father, Cleanse Us!

Look Around You!
Take The Tour!
God Is Truly Blessing Us
And That's For Sure!

Come On, Letsy!
Surely You Don't Believe
What You Just Said?!

Sure, I Do!
Pastor Says That Visible Prosperity
You Know
Houses, Land, Toys, Trips
Discretionary Cash, Nice Clothes
Beautiful Furnishings
Are All A Mark Of God's Favor!

Okay. Okay.
Nothing Wrong
With What "The Pastor Said!"
BUT
Can You Tell Us
- Me And You -
What Almighty God
- In His Living Word -
Says?!

Well, It Is Like This ...!
The Lord Said ... Says ...!
I Am Sure That The Lord Said ...!
Wait A Minute ... What DID The Lord Say?!
Mercy Me!
I Don't Even Know What The Lord Said!

You Should Hold Your Head Down ... In Shame!

Don't You Read Your Bible?!

Not Really!
There's No Need!

You Can't Be Serious! Why Not?!

Pastor Says ...!

STOP! JUST STOP!!

You Can Tell Me
What "Pastor" Says
But You Don't Know What
The Eternal God
The Savior Of Your Own Soul Says?!

Dear Lord!

This Is Eden All Over Again!

The Creature's Words Have Power

But The Creator's Word

Is A Mere Squeak!

Pity Us, Father!

Who Is Your Pastor Working For?!
Himself Or The Living God?
Or
Is It Possible
That He Is Working
For That Wannabe God
King Fraud?!

Shut Your Mouth!!

I Will Not!

You And I
Are Going To Have
A Coming-To-Jesus Meeting
For
You Have Surely Lost Your Way
And Are Babylonian Sweet Cakes Eating!

Yum! I Like Sweet Cakes!

Yes! I Can See That
But I Am Sure
That You Will Not Like
These Babylonian Sweet Cakes!
Their Leavening Ain't From
The Lord God Holy And Divine
Friend Of Mine!

You're Serious?!

Yes, I'm Serious!
All This Stuff Piled Up
And Your Wayward
Pastor-Inspired Erroneous Thinking
Has The Sulphurous Stench Of Satan
Reeking From It!

Come On!
That's Melodramatic!
It Can't Be That Bad!

It's Worse!

Gain Is Not Godliness
BUT
Godliness ... WITH CONTENTMENT
Is Great Gain!

From The Look Of This Place
And Your Rabid Spending
You Are Not Inhabiting
A Contented State! 

What You Are You Doing Later?!

I'm Doing A Mall Hop!
I'm Going ShoppingI

I Want To Buy ...!
Ohhh, Dear!

Yes ... Oh, Dear, Dearie!

Have you Ever Seen
A U-Haul At The Cemetery Gate
Carrying The Deceased One's Beloved Possessions?!
Or Have You Ever Heard
A Dead Man Speak About
Refitting His House
Or
His Going On Vacation?!

Girl, You Are On 

A Build A Bigger Barn Shopping Spree
AND

It's Not Going To End Well!

How Dare You?!

You're Just Jealous!

If You Say So.

Things Are Here To Make Us Comfortable!
We Are Not To Get Comfortable With Things
For
Things Are Just That ... Things!
No Heart - No Soul
Inanimate - Cold!
Just Like Belly Fat
They Don't Love You
AND
Just Like Belly Fat
The Rush To Grasp Things Will Kill You
Just Like A Cat Will Kill A Rat!

Only Problem, Though
The Inordinate Desire For Things
Will Ultimately Kill You Twice!
It's A Satanic Device!

But Having Things Is Such Fun!
They Are So Shiny!
That New Merchanchise Smell Is Sooo Delicious
And Best Of All

It Makes Me Feel So Very  Prosperous!
Ahhhhh!
The Thrill Of Acquisition!

Lord, Have Mercy

On Your People Today

Who Erroneously Believe That Feelings

And Things Possessed

Will Cause Them To Enter Heaven

On The Great Day!

Letsy ...
How Did You Get Here?!
You Used To Unfailingly Trust God!
How Did You Arrive At This Cross Road
Between King Jesus
And Satan
That Murderous Fraud?!

I Don't Know!
Maybe I Just Got Tired Of Being Poor
And Always Wanting
... Never Having Anything Beautiful ... !

... So You Listened!

Listened!?
Listened To What?!

The Siren's Song!

What Are You Talking About?!

RiCaP!

What Are We Recapping?!

Not That Kind Of Recap!

RiCaP -
Riches!
Cares!
Pleasures!
The Big Three
That Satan Uses
In Playing The Game Of Life
Where The Holy Grail Prize
IS
The Human Soul!

Don't Say That!
You're Scaring Me!

Good!

If You Were Not Being Scared
Then
All Hope Would Have Been Lost
BUT

Your Being Scared Says
You Can Find Comfort
At The Foot Of Christ's Cross!

Mirrie? Can I Tell You A Secret?!

You Know You Can!

Well ...

It's Like This!

Someone Across The Quad
Reported Me To The Co-op Board
And I Received A Warning Letter
That If I Don't Get Rid Of All This Stuff ...!

... Well, It Is Piled To The Ceiling
And It Is A Fire Trap!

... They're Threatening To Evict Me!

Please Help Me!

Tears Followed!
Hugs Pursued!
Prayers Were Sent Up
AND

Comfort Ensued!

Things Are For Comfort!
Things Should Not Comfort Our Souls
For In That Instance
Things - Not The Living God
Get The Worship
Not The Maker Of The Soul!

Look At The People Around You!
Look At The Things
For Which They Do Care!
Look At How And What For
They Acquire Riches!
Look At What They Take Pleasure
In From And For
Each And Every Day
AND
Consider
- For Just A Moment -
Where Jesus Christ Is
In Their Fraught Lives
AND
Decide For Your Own Soul
- Your Own Self -
With Whom
For What
Where
Your Soul's Salvation Lies

ANDIn The Name Of Jesus
Quote
Live In
Live For
Jesus!

Your Pastor Needs Jesus, Too
For 

He Can't Save His Own Soul
Far Less Save Yours
No Matter How Much
In The Great Day
You Boo Hoo!

Now ... About These Shoes
Pots Pans
Dresses Utensils
Glassware Cutlery
Coats Electronics
Lamps Hat Boxes
Boots ...!!

... They've Got To Go!

Do You Wear Any Of These Things
Or Use Any Of These Gadgets?!

Not Really!

Then ...!

... Why Did I Buy Them?!

Yes!

Lust Of The Eye!Check!

Lust Of The Flesh! Check, Check!!

AND ...

Drum Roll!!!

THE PRIDE OF LIFE!!!

You Know What?!

What?!

Confession Is Good For This Soul ...!

... But It Won't Help Us
Figure Out How
To Get Rid Of These Things
This ... This Stuff!

Time To Start Writing The List!!

PRAYER:

Father, 

Forgive Us

For Putting Possessions Before Praise

For Letting Things

Take The Place Of Thankfulness

For

Not Taking Our Cares

To The Ancient Of Days!

Father, 

You Are Our God

And

We Confess Our Sin

And

We Repent Of Our Folly

In Not Studying The Living Word

For Our Own Selves

And

For Letting Our Faith Be Misspent!

Grant To Us

The Outpouring Of The Holy Spirit

Whom You Have Promised

Will Lead Us Into All Truth

And

Grant Us Spiritual Ears

To Hear That Still Small Voice

And

Help Us, Father

To Make The Lord Christ

Our Eternal Choice!

Cleanse Us From All Unrighteousness

And

Grant Us Blessed Mercy

And

Dear Grace

So That

- In Peace - 

We Shall Our Lord's Face

In Whose Name

We Make The Contrite Heart's Plea! 

AMEN.
