PRAYER: Lord, Make My Heart Your Home!


Father, 
I Come
Pleading For Mercy
Thankful For Grace
Hopeful Of Blessing
Known Sin Confessing!


I Offer Unto You
My Worship
Unfeigned Praise
Prayers In Belief
Service And Fealty
Sorrows Pains And Griefs!


I Lay At Your Feet, Lord
My Soul
Sorrowing For Sin
And
My Heart
As A Home
For The Holy Spirit To Dwell In!


I Give Myself Freely
And
Ask That You Clean Me Up
And
Make Me Anew
So That In The Glad Day
I Shall To Heaven Go Up!


Please Remove From Me Arrogance
Pride
Selfishness Greed
Presumption
And
Iniquity
That Planned Sinning
The Likes Of Which I Have No Need!


Father,
Forgive Me My Ingratitude
My Infrequent Saying Unto You
"Lord, Thanks!"
My Not Taking Time
Not Making Time
To Just Sit With You
Talking
Listening
Learning
Hopeful In The Assurance Of
Heavenly Things Sublime!


I Own No Other Master!
I Own No Other God!
I Claim Jesus Christ As Savior
And
Strenuously Deny Satan
That Always Seeking
Ever Ready
Raging Ravening Wily Fraud!


Father,
I Give Unto You My Will!
Please Mark Thou My Way
And
Protect Me And Keep Me
For
For Own Sin
I Have No Desire To Indulge
The Plan Self-Pay!


I Desire To Live With You, Lord
To See Your Dear Face
And I Ask You Blessed Father 
To Bathe Me With Grace
So That In The Appointed Hour
Having Done All
I Shall Stand Among The Redeemed
And
Enter Glory Land!


I Bless You!
I Praise You!
I Worship You, My God 
So, Please
Bless Me And Lift Me Up
To Tell The Good News Of The Living
And
Returning
Jesus Christ The Lord
In Whose Holy Name
I Humbly Pray And Plead! 
AMEN.

Lightning Response: Text Message vs. Prayer!

I Wrote The Text Message!
I Hit The Send Arrow
AND
Instantly
I Saw ...

Sending
Sent
Delivered
Read

AND

Just As Fast
The Response Came Back
AND
I Thought ... Lovingly
Of My Heavenly Father
AND
My Offering To Him Of
My Faithful Prayers!

The Difference Between
The Text Message
AND
My Prayer To My Father
Is As the Difference Between
Pouring Cold Molasses
AND
Seeing A Raging Flood!

Before I Say My Prayer
My Father Already Knows My Need
AND
Before I Hit The Button Called "AMEN!"
The Answer Was Already There
Before I Born
From The God Who Inhabits Eternity
Who Knows The End From The Beginning
Who Sees All
Who Knows All
Who Is In All
Who Provides For All
Who Sustains All
Who Is The Judge Of All
AND
The King Of Many!

In My Heart
There Rings A Melody
Jesus Is My All And All

And

Because He Died To Save Me
I Shall Ever
On His Sweet Name Call!


Jesus Is My Answer
My Beginning
My End
My Hope
My Assurance
My Victory Over Sin!

And ...

Though I May Fail Him
He Will Never Fail Me

So ...

Dear Father, 
Loving Father, 
I Am Wholly Yours! 
Please Make My Heart
In This Moment
This Very Hour
This Day
Your Holy Sanctuary

As I Await Your Return
While Time May Seem To Tarry!
I Love You
And
In Jesus' Name, I Plead!  
AMEN.

From Sacrifice To Higher Ground + PRAYER: Lord, Grant Me The Victory Over Sin!


From Sacrifice To Celebration
From Punishment To Prosperity
From Petition To Power
From Faith To Sight
From Hope To Help
From Sin To Salvation
From The Mire To The Ground Higher
Is The Life Of The Sinner Repentant
Now Saint
Walking Circumspectly
Working Diligently
Waiting Patiently
Watching Vigilantly
Warning Others
Denying The Liar
Willing To Be
What The Lord Christ Wants Him To Be
AND
Conforming To The Pattern Of Excellence
As Seen In The One True
Who Is Way
Light
Life
Coming Back To Earth
To Claim His Own With Usury
For
He Who Goes To The Great Reward
Will Take The Profit Of His Labor With Him
To Be Revealed On The Great Day Of
God's Settlement Of Accounts!

PRAYER:

Father Of The Faithful,
Most Holy God 
Who By Personal Blood Sacrifice
Destroyed Death Hell And The Fraud
We Believing Christians
Captured By Pure Love
Approach Unto You
And
Diligently Pray
In This
Mercy's Closing Hour
For The Power 
That Is Readily Available
And
Provided To Us
For Us To Escape The Foul Ground
Being Held Out To Us As Hallowed
By Those Workers Of Iniquity
Who Judiciously Plead 
Against
Keeping The Law Of God
Reading The Living Word
Loving The Lord Of Life
And
Seeking The Kingdom Of God 
Calling It All
A Thing To Be Held Light  ... Not Laud!


You Created Us, Lord! 
You Didn't Have To!

You Provide For Us, Lord!
You Don't Have To!

You Protect Us, Lord! 
You Don't Have To!

You Sustain Us, Lord! 
You Don't Have To!

You Sacrificed Your Best
So That We Are Blessed
When We Repent And Confess
Our Lord Jesus Christ
And Acknowledge
And Accept 
That Life In Jesus Christ
Is Our Only Way
To Spiritual Success
And Convicted
And Converted
Walk On In His Light
Which Leads Away From Eternal Night!


Lord, 
We Acknowledge 
And
Accept Your Love! 
We Hallow The Tears You Shed Over Us
And
We Repent That We Are The Ones 
Who Caused And Still Are Causing You 
Great Pain And Shame
By Our Very Apparent Unwillingness
To Turn Away From The Unclean Thing
Because
We Seem Not To Be Able To Recognize
What Is Holy
From What Is Profane
What Is Salvation 
From What Is Eternal Shame
What Is Truth
From What Is A Snake-Skin Beauty
What Is Sure Hell
From What Is Known Glory
Nor
Who Is God 
From Who Is The Fraud!


Lord, 
We Are As Deaf Adders
Unwilling To Be Charmed! 
We Are Wretched Poor
Miserable Blind
And Assuredly
Naked! 
We Are Clouds Without Rain!
We Are Barren Fruit Trees!
We Are Unproductive Land!
We Are Salt With No Savor! 
We Are Lights Under Bushels! 
We Are Unprofitable Servants
Who Show Up For Work
But Refuse To Labor!

Oh, Lord
Help Us
For
We Are But Men
Mere Children Thinking Foolish Things
And
Not Recognizing That There Is A Time
For Everything Under The Sun!


We Read The Signs Of The Weather
But Are Unable To Discern
The Signs Of The Times!

We Have Taken Your Labor, Lord
And Have Wasted It
In Riotous Living
And, Now
Now, Lord
That There Is A Creeping Famine
For The True Words Of Life
We Are Willing To Eat Pig's Food
To Stay Alive - Pity Us!


Pity Us, Lord
And
Open Our Understanding!
Let Wisdom Enter In
So That Our True Condition
May Be Revealed
And, We ... Broken
May Remember
That The Servants In Your House
Are Fed In Abundance

And Then Individually Say
With A Broken And Contrite Heart:


Father, 
I Have Sinned Against Thee
And Against Heaven! 
I Cast Myself On Your Free Mercy! 
Please Forgive Me
Renew Me
Take Me Back Into The Safe Fold
Bless Me
And
Protect Me
For I Know Truly
That In You
I Am Made Whole! 

Forgive My Myriad Backslidings!
Forgive My Walks In Own Way!
Forgive My Poor Attempts At Self-Regulation
And
Accept This Old Sinner's Prayer
For I See My Need
And
I Accept That I Cannot
My Self
Nor My Own Soul Save!


You Are My Lord
My Savior 
My Redeemer
My King 
So
Help Me, Lord
Help Me
To The Edge Of Your Garment
To Cling
So That I May Be Forever Healed
And
In The Coming Day Sealed
So That When Your Glory Shall Be Revealed
I Shall Not Be As Those Who Will Keen!


Jesus Died That I May Have Life! 
Jesus Arose 
So That I May Tear Off Sin's Clothes!
Jesus Ascended
So That I To The Father May Draw Close
And
As My Advocate With Father
Making My Pardon Sure
I Shall
From His Hand
In The Day Of Atonement 
Receive And Wear
Righteous White Robes!


Oh, Lord
Grant Unto Me
My Victory Over Sin
For I Give Unto My Will
For You To Carry Me
In The Upward Way
Straight Narrow
Hard But True
For
I Desire To Dwell
Forever
With You!


I Love You, Lord! 
Have Mercy And Bless
For In Jesus Christ's Holy Name
I Pray
And Humbly Plead! 
AMEN.

"SACRED COWS" : Lawful Lawless Lawful!




When Lawlessness Is The Law Of The Land
The Lawless Become The Lawful
AND
Those Who Are The Keepers Of The Law
Become Scofflaws!
This State Of Affairs Is Just Plain Awful!

When Truth Has No Beauty
AND
Beauty Has No Truth
Truth Is Neither Truthful Nor Beautiful
AND
Beauty Is Neither Beautiful Nor Truthful!

When The Servants Of God ln A Crisis
Remain Quiet
Removed
From Beholding The Evil
AND
Not Doing Anything
To Help Turn Evildoers 
Unto Works Of Righteousness
Then They Have Lost Their Way
AND
As The Watchman
Sleeping
AND
Not Warning The People
They Will Have A Debt
To God
To Repay!

We Are Called To Preach The Word
In Season
AND
Out!
We Are To Point Out The Errors
Give The Warning
Offer The Corrective Solution
AND
Move On!
Get Out!

Our Children
Are Being Ruined
Because The Parents
Behave Like Children Themselves
Living In The Realm
"I Want This!"

"Give Me That!"
AND
Throwing Tantrums
For Some Everything
On The Store Shelf
Even If It Means
Destroying A Growing Mind
AND
Casting The Body Primed
To That Satan Not A Story-Book Elf!

I Cringed At The First Story
The Second The Third!
Each Was As The Other:

Boy Wants To Be A Girl
AND
Is Girl And A Boy Concurrently
The Girl Wants To Be A Boy
And Is A Boy And A Girl Concurrently
(This Struggle Is On All Points Devastatingly Real!)
AND
Boys Who Are Boys Living As Boys
AND
Girls Who Are Girls Living As Girls
Are Being TREATED As 
Abnormal
Inauthentic Boys And Girls!

Color Me Confused!
Really, Really, Really Confused
Because
I Honestly Believe The Word Of The Living God
To Wit:
Man And Woman
Male And Female
Created He Them!
One Living Soul!
Male OR Female!
God Did Not Create Derivatives
AND
Anything Else Is Sin 
Offered On The Chalice Of Malice!

I Recently Sat And Watched
- Stunned -
A "Good Parent"
Encourage 
And Makeup
And Costume 
Her Less Than 10-Year-Old Son
In Full Drag-Queen Regalia
AND
Introduced The Child
To Personally Engage With His Idol
AND
Smilingly Complacent
Call It ... GOOD?!

Father, God Almighty

Pity Us!
When Will This Nightmare End?!


Also ...

How Do You
A Loving Involved Parent
In Good Conscience
Surgically Alter A Young Child
And Call It Supportive Parenting?!

Why Are We Adults
Using Our Children As Pawns
To Play Out Our Wickedly Satanic Fantasies
To Furnish And Feather
Our Financial Nests?!

Are Our Consciences So Dead
Our Love Grown So Cold ... Already
That We Are Willing To Sacrifice
An Innocent Child's Innocence
At The Altar Of .... Enmity Against God?!

Roll Call ...

Three-Parent Babies
Pregnancies For Spare Parts
Genderless Babies
Transgenderism
Gender Fluidity
Bestiality
Necromancy
Are All
Demonic Activities!

How Can This Be Otherwise
When
Satan's Stated Task
Is To Destroy
- Completely Destroy -
The Image Of God In Man?!

Are We Truly That Blind
That Disconnected From
The Light Of God
That Strong Delusion Is Our Only Reality?!

God Forbid!

We Have Had 6,000 years
AND
Satan And His Cohort Likewise!
We ... To Change And Turn To God
Satan ... To Perfect The Art
Of Turning Us
Not Toward The Fraud
But
Against God
AND
The Deluded
The Willfully Wicked
The Lovers Of The Lie Amongst Us
Are Daily Willingly
Giving Our Adversary
- The Accuser Of Our Brethren
AND
Ourselves -
Wickedly Easy Victories!

When Are We Going To Awaken From Sleep?!
Where Is The One Who
On The Towers Does Watch Keep?!
Where Now Is The Trumpet
Uttering That Certain Sound
Warning The Brethren
That Fatal Calamity
Is Headed To Our Nations
Our Homes
Our Towns?!

Let Us Not Cherish
The Beautiful Babylonian Garment
Nor The Beautiful Siren Song
Nor The Call To Self-Aggrandizement
To Self-Determination
Nor That Call
The Living Holy God's Altars Of Pure Faith
Straight Truth
Right-Way Walking
To Cast Down
Throw Away!

Feelings Are A Pet Weapon Of The Fraud!
Living To Self
For Self
Through Self
In Self
Will Get One Cast Out
Into Outer Darkness
To Be With Finality Consumed
On Sin Death Hell And Satan's Final Day
AND
All Who Sought Not Peace
AND
Rest In
AND WITH 
Shiloh
Will Be Forever Lost
Will Be As Though
They Had Never Been!
This Should Warn Both Me And You!

Look Around Us, Brethren
AND
Speak The Truth Of God
AND
Without Fear
That
Man Is Going To Hell In A Hand-Basket
Because
The Path Of Least Resistance
Aka Conformity To The Vaunted
Lying Wisdom Of The World
AND
The Putrifying Ways Of Wicked Men
With The Access Reach
Grasp
AND
Hold
Of Ill-Gotten Gain
Is Greasing Palms
AND
Paving Ways
Drawn And Directed And Spuriously Protected
By The One Who Wittingly Encourages
Man To Do Evil
To Hasten To Join Himself
To The Underground Staff
To Not Be At Peace With Him Who
Created Us
Sustains And Maintains Us
He Who Is Our Life 
Our Light
Our Escape Our Protection
Our Home
Our Out Out Of Sin
The One Who Is The Truth
The Eternal God
Of The Eternal Rest Home!

In Bajan Parlance
God Don't Like Ugly
And
As His Children
Neither Should We!

HAPPY SABBATH + Feats And Counterfeits!





I Met A Man!
He Thought He Was Super!
I Met A Woman!
She Thought Herself A Wonder!
I Met Myself In The Old Mirror
AND
I Thought
Oh, Lord
How Much Longer?!

A Hamanesque He-Man Knocked At My Door!
He Was Assuredly A Marvel!
A She-Ra-Like Jezebel Was At His Right Hand
AND
On The Issue Of Faith
AND
Sight
They Did Much
Supposedly To Make Me Want On Jesus To Cavil
 - To No Avail -
AND
To Say To My Soul's Salvation
"Good Night!"BUT
I Remembered The Words Of Love
From My Father Above:

I Love You, My Beloved Child!
You Are The Apple Of My Eye! 
Say Your Prayers

In The Gift Of Your Measure Of 
The Faith Of Jesus 
And
Face The Day With Your Portion Of 

The Readily Available Grace Of God
For Untold Blessings Await The Faithful!


There Followed A Battle
For In The Midst
Entered Boldly The Dragon
Obviously Trusting Might And Power
To Make Me In Fear
- Resigned To My Inevitable Loss -
Cower!

I, Then, Traveled The Well-Worn
Brightly Marked
Path Of Prayer
AND
In The Name Of Jesus
Said:

Oh, Lord
Pilot Me
For In Godly Fear I Come To Thee
Blessed
Assured Of Victory
For The King Of Love
The Shepherd Of Rest
The God Of My Salvation
Gives Good Gifts
Ever Always The Best!



Nothing Wavering
- For Doubt Was Out -
I Looked Up
AND
I Now Live To Tell The Truth Of My Salvation
At The Hand Of Heavenly Love!

The Dogs Of Damnation
AND
The False God Who On Faith Makes War
Move Like A Flood
Creating A Pall In The Atmosphere
Attempting
To Block The Light Of Life
The Lamp That Shows The Way For Faithful Feet To Go
The Light That Discloses
AND
Illuminates The Narrow Path
Upon Which Only Those Living The Life Of The Saved
Will Intimately Know!

My Maker, The King
Opened My Eyes
AND
I Looked
AND
I Saw
That Those That Were With Me
Were More Than Those That Were With Them
AND IWith Renewed Strength
AND
Absolutely Knowing
That The Battle Was The Lord's
Shouted The Battle Cry:

Jesus Christ IS Lord!
He By Death Ransomed Me!
Truth Is In My Inward Parts! 
I Have Tasted Heaven
And
Heaven Is In My Heart!


Hell Huffed And Puffed
BUT
The Hounds Couldn't Tear My House Down
AND I ...I Was Standing
Grounded
Firm And Deep
In My Savior's Love!

Prayer Had Changed Things
AND
I Was Holding The Fort
For Jesus, Himself, Had Signaled
That He Was Coming Again
To
- For Eternity -
Redeem Me!

I Sent Back My Signal:

I Am Thine, Oh, Lord! 
Draw Me Nearer
Nearer, My God, To Thee
Nearer Still Nearer
Close To Thy Heart!

Lord, Lift Me Up! 
Revive Me Again! 
I Give You My All
For In You
I Know I Shall Stand
Redeemed
For
I Have A Home In Glory Land!
I Have A House Not Built With Hands
Close To The Tree Of Life
Where Living Waters Flow!


Brethren, Listen Carefully
For I Will Tell You True
That Life's Dungeons Always Have Dragons
That Comic Book Characters Are
Decepticons
Sold
To Make Men Think That They Can
Overcome Sin
Overcome Self
By Vain Imaginings
BUTWhich Are Sure To Make Enquiring Minds
Seeking Into Things
Not Given To Man To Know
To Make Shipwreck Of Faith!

Man Will Never Walk Through Walls!
Spirits Do! 

Man Is Not Immortal!
The Godhead
- Father Son Holy Ghost - 
Is!

Satan Cannot Read Your Mind!
The All-Knowing God Can And Does!

AND

Neither Satan Nor His Angels
Nor Devil-Possessed Men Can Give Life!
The Almighty God Does!

Please Refer To The Plagues Of Egypt
For
In These You Will See
Just How Far The Devil's Sorcerers Can Go
AND
Therein You Shall Also See
That The Mighty Power Of God
Cannot Be Counterfeited
That God's Glory
Will Not Be Shared With Another
That The Rod Of God
Will Consume The Illusory Snakes
Those Staffs Of The Devil
The Offscourings Of
The Workers Of Planned Sin
Those Workers Of Iniquity!

Stay Out Of The Devil's Playground
For
Smoke And Mirrors Are Stock and Trade!
Bells And Whistles Are Calling Card!
AND
Mash-Up No Buy-back Is The Way Of The Damned
BUT
Wise UP! Look UP! Go UP!
Is The Way Of
The Son Of God
The Sun Of Righteous
The Son Of Man!

Let No One Deceive YOU!
Let No One Steal YOUR Crown!
Let No One Steal YOUR Joy In The Lord
For ... Soon
He Is To Earth
Coming Back  Down
For A People Prepared To Meet Their God
AND
To Forever Destroy
Death Hell
AND
Satan The Fraud!

Don't Look Back! 
And
Don't Turn Around
But
In The Name Of Christ Jesus 
Stand Firm On ... Faith's Ground!

The Acceptable Time: NOW!

Today, Today
I Did What To A Pleasure-Loving Class
Is Truly Radical!
I
- With Sincerity -
Threw Open My Heart's Door
AND
Put All Of My Now Tasteless Furniture
- Old Deads For Sure -
Outside
AND
Invited Almighty God's Holy Spirit
Within It To Abide!

I Had Met Christ Jesus
The Great Architect
AND
I Truly Trusted His Work
AND
The Workman
AND
I Believed I Would Receive
All
That He Told Me I Should Expect!

I Knew I Needed The Great Designer ... In Residence
For
His Skill Is Impeccable!
His Taste Phenomenal! 
AND
His Grace Unstoppable!

I Had Put Out
A Sofa Called Pride
A Lounge Chair Called Envy
A Recliner Called Lust
AND
A Break-Front Called Sin-Spendy!

I Put Out A Bed Of Base Manners
A Bureau Full Of Lies And Deceits
A Tall-Boy Of Worldliness
AND
A Closet Full Of Greed
- I Used To Ride That Puppy With Speed!

I Even Cast Out
Butcher Knives For Backstabbing
Dainty Teaspoons Full Of Unkindness
Desert Forks For Sly Digs
Ladles Holding License For Liberty
AND
Trays Laden With "I Can Do As I Please!"

If I Decided To Go On Listing My Cast-Offs
My Cast Aways
I Would Still Be Writing Tomorrow
AND
I Don't Choose To Spend My Day That Way!

Sufficed To Say ...

I Didn't Even Realize That 
The Holy Spirit Had Indeed Fully Moved In
AND
Had Completely Taken Over
Until
One Day ... Quite Sweet
I Was Riding In My New Rocking Chair
From The "Yes, Lord!" Collection!

I Suddenly Had No Fear Of Tomorrow
AND
The Light Of Life Was Shining Through
My Windows Called
Clean And Clear Salved Eyes
AND
My Table Called Faith
Had A Single Plate Marked
"Just For Today!"

I Had A Single Glass Cup!
Every Day It Looked The Same!
Never Full!
Never Empty!
AND
When I Queried
The New Boss Of Me
He Stated That That Cup Is Called Grace
AND THATWhat I Therein Received
IS
Always Sufficient!
In Believer's Parlance
It Was More Than Plenty!

My New Bed Is From The "Rest!" Collection!
My New Comforter Is From The Collection Called "Perfect Peace!"
My Shoes Are From The "Delivery Of The Gospel Of Peace!" Collection
AND
My New Attire Is From The Simple Line
"The Righteousness Of Christ!"

I Even Received A New Chapeau
From The Collection "Salvation Has Been Brought Down!"
Bearing A Blood-Red Ribbon
Beautifully Embroidered
With The Words
That Made Me Cry And Laugh
AND
Hug The Lord Of My Heart:

Saved By Grace!
Property
Of
Jesus Christ
Redeemer Of Man!
