Rich Toward ... Self!?! PRAYER: Lord, Please Generate In Me, The Giving Spirit!






























Simonette Sugam Was Rich, Rich, Rich
And
Bad-Minded Beyond Belief!
She Had Houses And Lands
And

Big-Able Barns Full To Brim
And

Overflowing
And

Believe It Or Not
That Enormously Greedy
And

Thoroughly Selfish "Sister" Simonette
Known Prominent Member Of
The Household Of Almighty God
- The Gracious Giver Of All Good Things -
And

Visibly Enjoying
All The Blessings Of Unmerited Favor
Just Reaped Another Amazingly Abundant Harvest!

Cha-Ching!!
What Did She Do?!

Nothing To Bless Her Brethren For Sure!

What DID She Do!

It's Too Gross To Say!

What Did SHE Do?!

It Is Unspeakably Gross!
Please Don't Make Me Say It!

Lambie, You May Want To Roll Back The Drama
Just A Notch
And Ratchet Up The Info Sharing
Just A Bit!

Okay! Okay!
Father, Give Me Strength!
Simonette Sugam Had The Spirit Of Satan!

Gracious!
That's What You Call A Jump!

How Does One Go From Just Being Pedestrian Selfish
To Having The Spirit Of Satan!?!

Rather Easily, It Appears!
The Spirit Of God In Man Says 
"Give!"
It Says To Remember 
Your Poor Widowed And Orphaned Brethren!
You've Got Goods
So Give Freely Out Of The Bounty
- Which You Have Freely Received -
And
Help Them To Daily Live!

Sounds Fair!

It Is The Blessed Way!

Well, Let Me Tell You Some Gospel Truths!
The Living God
Let's His Rain Fall
And His Sun Shine
On The Good And The Evil
The Just And The Unjust!

But ... 

That Simonette
Either Ignored The Fact 
Or Plum Forgot 
That The Lord
- By Her Hand -
Had Made Provision For The Poor
So That They Would Be Fed
Housed And Clothed
And
With This Last Great Harvest
Rendering Her Barns Filled And Overflowing
She ... Full Of Pride
And

Self Satisfaction
And

Blessing Her Self
And
Not The Holy God
Said:

I Have Abundance! 

I Have Much Goods For Many Years! 

I Shall Drink And Be Merry! 
I Shall Tear Down These Too Small Barns
And
I Shall Build Bigger Barns!
I Shall Take My Ease!


Sounds Like She Has I-Ritis!

The Eternal Blessing God Don't Like Ugly!

Oh, Dear!
This Can't End Well!

You'd Better Believe It!

Remember The Verse ...

The Fool Hath Said In His Heart
There Is No God!?!

Sure Do! Psalm 14:1 KJV

That's Simonette
Because
She Forgot
That It Is By The Creator God
That We Live And Breathe
And ... Have Our And Any Being!

I Guess You Know That ...

The Voice From Heaven
Plainly Said:

Thou Fool!

This Very Night

Thy Soul Will Be Required Of Thee
And
Whose Goods Shall All These Be?!


She Dead!?!

Dead As Nit!

She Didn't Have The Son!

In The Son Is Life!

She Wasn't Rich Toward God!
She Was Laying Up Treasure For Herself
And

She Was Doing A Devilish Work
Pleasuring Satan
Satisfying His Black Heart
And

Causing Him To Sing
Like A Well-Satisfied Juicy-Worm-Filled Lark!

Them Doings Real Dark!

Lessons Taught Must Be Learned ...

When The Lord Blesses You
You Must Not Just Bless Yourself
Because

In Your Prosperity
You Have An Opportunity
To Be Almighty God's Almoner
Almighty God's Good And Faithful Steward
To Give A Good Gift To The Deserving Other
To - Of Yourself - Give Almighty God A Gift
And, Again 
To Be By Almighty God Abundantly Blessed!

Be Ye Warned ...

Hoarded Resources Curse The Hoarder
No Matter How Blessed They
- On The Surface To All Public View -
Appear
For
What You Hoard On Earth
Can't Go
Can't Get You Into Heaven
Because
By Your Own Hand
You Have Closed The Door
Finally And For Sure
Locked Down
Secure!

The Plain Truth ...

Almighty God Is Love!
Love Is Life!
Almighty God's Love To Man
Grants Us Freedom
From The Life Of Strife
Striving ... For Acquisitions
For Pride Of Place
Which Causes Us To Look Away
From Christ Jesus
And

Lands Us In The Life Of The Disgraced!

Shame!

A Real Shame!

It Is More Blessed To Give
Than To Receive!

Count The Costs, Brethren!
Count The Costs!

PRAYER:

Father,
I Thank You For The Matchless Gift
Bestowed Upon Me
From Your Eternal Love!
Please Help Me To Remember My Brethren
Be They Near
Be They Far
And
Help Me To Share With Them
Your Bountiful Gifts Of Love
Which
Though Shared
Are Never Diminished
Even If I Share Them
Loaded In A Car!

Bless You, Father!
You Are Faithful
Kind
Loving
Blessing
Holy
Forgiving
Saving
True!

Thank You, Lord!
I Love You!
Please Help Me
By Your Holy Spirit
To Daily Emulate You!
Please Generate In Me
The Giving Spirit
Is My Heart's Earnest Plea
For
It Is In Jesus Christ's Holy Name
That I Humbly Pray And Plead!
AMEN.

VESPERS AT THE END OF THE SABBATH: CONVICTION: Conversion!?! + PRAYER: I Will To Reach Home, Lord!

The Soul Convicted Needs To Walk To Conversion
But
The Journey Is Not One Called Easy!
The Soul Unconverted Likes Things Easy
Because Then
He Could Do As He Was Well Pleased!
... Sorta!

The One Convicted Knows That Something In His Life Was Wrong!
The One Convicted Knows That With Conversion
He Would Against Sin
Be Bold And Strong
But
The Struggling Convicted Does Not Want To Cross The Bar
Because Then
He Would Have To Close Willing Willful Sin's Door
Which, For Him
Had Always Hung Kindly And Welcomingly Ajar!
... Supposedly!

Nobody Has To Walk Through Known Sin's Door!

I'll Go Further And Say That
Nobody Has To Eat Confusion Out Of Babel's Shiny Glass Jar!
Nobody Has To Stay In A Pickle
Drunk
At Do What Thou Wilt's Grill And Bar
Because, Then
The Sacrifice Of Jesus Christ Will Be
For That Poor Soul
A Sacrifice ... Wasted!

Ah, The Fruits Of Salvation That He Could Have Tasted!

Truth Be Told ...

Conversion Is A Corner
Where
Decisions Must Be Made!
Conversion Is A Bed
Where
A New Birth Will Take Place!
Conversion, Friends
Is 
A New Life
With Disgrace Removed
From The Saved Child's Face!

As You Well Know ...

Giving Birth Ain't Easy!
Labor And Pain Are Involved!

Giving Birth Ain't Easy
And
It's Messy!
You Are Praying ... A Lot
And
Crying ... Real Hard
And
Sweating ... Copiously
Is
Always Involved!
Sometimes 
Even The Inappropriate Bad Word, Bad Word
For Some People
Is
Decidedly Involved!

Like It Or Not ...

You Can't Keep In The Baby
So You Might As Well Give Birth!

If You Accept That Jesus Christ Is Calling
You Might As Well Accept That There Is
The New Birth!
The Brand New Life!

Indeed! 
It Is A Necessity
For
The Issue Of The Rancidness And Rapacity Of Sin
And
The Efficacy Of The Delicacy That Is Salvation
Must
- Once And For All Time -
Be Resolved!

A Man Can't Eat Rancid!

I Don't Want To Be Unfair-Sin's Prey!

With That Said
Living In Conversion 
Would Obviously Be In Order, Right!?!

Sure Looks That Way!

But De Pain! De Pain!

The Growth In Grace!

Narrow Roads On Hard Shoes!

Gospel Of Truth Make Hard Shoes Loose!

Deprivation And Denial!

For Your Sins
Jesus Christ The Righteous Suffered
At An Unfair Trial!

Better Conversion
Than The Eternal God's Wrath In Golden Vials!

Repent, Brethren
And
Thereby
Negate Your Base Denials!
Be Baptised
And
Walk In The Newness Of Life
Even Though There Will Be Personal Trials!

From Conviction
To Conversion
What A Walk To Life That Is!

From Conviction
To Conversion
From Death To Life
- Eternal Life -
The Life With Christ
Is 
Worth The Struggle
For, Then
Your Heart With The Lord Christ's Heart
Will ... Forever
Snuggle!

I'll Be Forever Out From Under
Satan's Death-Grip Muzzle!

The Love Of Christ
Will Have Changed My Deceitful Heart
And I Will, By Grace
The Plan's Of Wily Devil
Well And Truly Scuttled!

Let's Not Be Stubble!

Who's Ready Rumble!?!

I'm In!

All The Way In!

Let's Pray In Jesus Christ's Name
For The Victory 
For Which He Has Already Paid!
The Victory For Us Already Won!

Let's Each Pray For Our Personal Sure Win!

I Second That!

Brethren, We Are In Agreement!
No More Visiting
The Doctor Of Spin!



PRAYER:

I Humble Myself
Under Your Mighty Hand, Lord
Because
It Is My Desire
To Attain Unto The Great Reward!
Save Me!

Please Help Me, I Beseech You
To Be Truly Converted
To The Lord Jesus Christ
And
To Depart The Ways Of Sin
To Get Out From Under
The Demonic Device!
Seal Me!

I Believe The Word, Father!
I Trust In The Truth!
I Will To Walk With My Jesus!
I Desire Eternal Youth!
Redeem Me!

I Thank You For The Love Given!
I Thank You For The Grace Bestowed!
I Thank You For The Mercies New
And
Beseech You
Help Me Moment By Moment
Daily!
Help Me To Spiritually Grow!
I Will Glorify Thee!

I Will To Reach Home
And
Live Forever At Peace With You
Is My Heart's Pitiful Plea!
Hear, Oh, Lord
And
Bless
In Jesus Christ's Holy Name I Pray!
Let The Spirit Of The Lord
Fall Upon Me!
AMEN.

HAPPY SABBATH + Soul Food!?! + PRAYER: Help Me, Lord, To Do Better!







Thoughtless Words
Harsh Words
Foolish Words
Careless Utterance
And
Bitter Remonstrance
All Speak To What You Are Your Soul Feeding
Be It By Reading
Seeing
Hearing
Thinking Or Cherishing!

Words Spoken
Tell The Hearers
What It Is That You Are Really Eating!

I Know What You Mean
Because Recently
I Butt Up On Myself
And It Was Gravel In My Mouth!
There Had Not Been Any Good Eating!

Wow!
Tasting Your Own Words!
How Did You Like Them Apples!?!

I Didn't 
And Neither Did The One On The Receiving End!

Did You Forget?!

Forget!?!
Man, I Didn't Take Time To Remember!
I Said: ABC!
Carly Said: 123
And, I
- In High Dungeon -
Handed Her The Rest Of The Alphabet
In Color
In Stereo
In Rage
In Disrespect
In Folly
And, Now
I Stand Before You Chastened
Having Walked Around In ... Shame!

That Must Have Been
One Seriously Negative Feeding Frenzy
You Must Have Been On
To Unload On Her Like That!

It Sure Was!

It Was A Dark Lord Special Delight ...

I Had Feasted On:

Bran Bread Of Bitterness
Butter From The Bilge Water Of Bile
Pickles Of Pettiness
Putrid Patty Of Imagined Penury
Tomatoes Of Toasted-Temperance
Lawless Lettuce
Pity-Me Potatoes
Apple Pie Of Avarice
And Ice Cream Of Indignation

So What Was Your Chaser?!

I Had Me A Long Glass Of Mauby Of Malice And Malignity
Over Cracked Ice
And A Liberal Spash Of Icy Disdain!

Lord A'mighty!
You Must Have Been Born In A Barn!

If You'd Been Born In A Stable
You Would've Known Better
And Done Better ...!

... And She Would Have Remembered That
A Soft Answer Turns Away Wrath
And Recognized That Silence Is Golden!

By Their Fruit ...

Lacy, This Is Serious!
How Could You
A Practicing Christian
Fall Into That Cess Pit!?!

I Didn't Fall In!
I Boldly Walked In!

You'd Better Explain That Statement!

All I'm Saying Is
You Speak What You Eat!

So You're Saying That You Really Did That Deed
With Unadulterated Malice!?!

Of Course!
I Was Just Waiting For An Excuse!
Any Excuse!

Let Me Get This Straight:
You Fed You Soul Crap
So That You Could Deliver Incredible Excrement!?!

Since You Put It Like That, Yes!
And I Feel So Dirty!

You Should!
What You Did Was Deliberately Sinful!

Don't Forget Presumptuous!

Please Add On Cruel And Unkind!

Hateful Is My Description, Oh, Friend Of Mine!

Exceedingly Foolish Is My Take!
You've Been Unwisely Encouraging The Known Fake!
Don't You Know That Much Is At Stake!
Don't Your Realize That
With Your Cherishing That Foul Attitude
You Will Not Your Residence
In New Jerusalem Make!?!

I Know! I Know!

Big Question ...

Where Is The Repentance For That Debacle!?!

Believe Me! It's Here!
I've Been Tasting It!
Hence The Gravel In My Mouth!

I Had To Repent Twice!
Once To My Heavenly Father
And Once To My Dear Friend!

Was It Worth The Cost!?!

That's An Emphatic "No!"

I Sincerely Pray That You Change Your Diet!

Changed And Changing
But
I Am Now Seriously Concerned
About My ...!

... Unfavorable Influence ...!

... Upon Others!

Let This Be A Lesson
To All Of Us Who Here Hear
That Words Have Life
And
When They Are Weaponized
They Inveigle Us In The Great Controversy's Strife!

We Can Worship The Devil!
We Can Worship The Lord!
But
There Is The Difference Which Comes
From The Utterance Of The Singularly False Word!
People See!
People Hear!
And
People Understand Your Intent
And
Your Unwise Words
Can Send Them To The Wrong Camp
The Camp Of The Enemy
The Enemy Of Souls
Who Has For His Life's Work
The Damnation Of Your Already Bought
And
Purchased-From-Death Soul!

What A Hellish Goal!

Keep Away From His Fold!

If We Live And Work And Love
As The Good Master Told
We ... None Of Us
Won't Work For That Gross Nave
Beelzebub The Bold!

Indeed!
On This Truth, I'm Sold!


PRAYER :

Heavenly Father,

God Of Mercy
Grace And Love
Forgive Me My Trespass
For Not Speaking
From A Heart Operating Under The Influence
Of
Jesus Christ's Pure And Holy Love!


I Spoke A Harsh Word

A Word Not Kind
A Word Not Fit 
For The Faithful
And
In So Doing
I Misrepresented You
The God Almighty
Holy, Wise, Divine!


Help Me, Lord

To Do Better
To Live As One Wise And True
And
Please Help Me
To Live For And As My Jesus Did
For
It Is My Heart's Desire
With You
In New Jerusalem To Live!


Hear My Prayer, Lord 

And
Bless Me To Do Your Will
And
Blessing Me So That I May Be A Blessing
To The Family Of The Living God!

I Ask These Mercies
In Jesus Christ's Holy Name! 
I Love You, Lord!
Please Come Soon!
AMEN.

The Scoffer: Prepare To Meet Jesus Christ The Lord!




Prepare To Meet Thy God!

Which One?!

The Day Of The Lord Comes
As The Thief In The Night
To The Householder Unprepared
Unexpectedly
But
All Who Will Meet Him
With Joy
And
In Peace
Will Have Their Homes
Their Hearts Ready
Fully Equipped
Him
To Meet And Joyously Greet!

To Greet Him In Peace
Is 
Everlasting Sin-Release!

What Release!?!
He's Been Coming Since Adam Was A Lad
And I Was Knee-high To A Grass-Hopper!
Anybody See The Lord Lately?!

The King Is Coming!
Are You Washed And Ready?!
The Judge Is Coming!
Did You Confess And Repent!?!
Is Jesus Christ Your Attorney Of Defense?!

I Don't Need No Attorney!
All Attorneys Are Crooks!

Jesus Christ
Is
Lord And God!
He Is Peace!
He Is Security!
He Is Creator
And
Sustainer-Redeemer Of Mankind
One And All!

I've Old Jimmy Bean For Peace ...!

... I've Got Monsieur LeGlock For Security
And Badboy Ruger Is His Assistant Able!

Men Don't Need Guns!
Men Need The Living God!
Men Need To Recognise Their Need For Christ
And
Leave Off Converse With Satan The Fraud!

There Ain't No Satan!
There Ain't No God!
Your Are Peddling Pixie Dust
With Your Be-All-Things-To-All-Men God!
Now, That Is Fraud!

I Used To Believe
I Used To Love And Trust
And I Asked Him For A Teeny Tiny Paltry Favor
But My Hope Was A Pimple Filled With Putrid Pus!


I Like Your Analogy
And I Ask You Quite Plain:

Did Not Your Bust Pimple
Not Bless You With Gain?!

Huh?! How ...?!

Happens Every Time!
We Don't Get What We Want
And 
We Curse God
When It Is That
He Gives Us What We Need!

You, Me, We
Are All Short-Sighted
And
We Need Need Need
To Trust The Living Eternal Omniscient God
Whose Sight Is Infinite!

You Mean To Tell Me That
All These Years
I've Been In The Wilderness
For Want Of So Simple An Explanation?!

Yes!
Sad And So True!

I Don't Believe
I Can't Believe
That I Actually Turned Against God
Because
I Lacked Wisdom
Was Short Of Understanding
And Couldn't Find True Knowledge!

Shouldn't Have Happened
But It Happens Every Day!

I'd Put That Squarely In The Realm Of
Leaning On Your Own Understanding!

What's The Word, Brethren?!

If Any Of Us Lack Wisdom
Let Us Ask Of God
Who Gives To All Men Liberally
And Upbraided Not!

The Fear Of The Lord Is The Beginning Of Wisdom!

God Shall Bring Every Work Into Judgment
And Every Secret Thing
Be It Good Or Evil!


Friend,
The Living God
Is
Our Refuge And Strength
And
A Very Present Help 
In Time Of Trouble
So, Please
Do Not Trust Your Eyes!
Your Feelings!
Your Lusts!

Man's Heart Is Deceitful!
Man's Way Is Willful!
Man's Thoughts Are Toward Wickedness
But
We Must Trust The Holy God
If
We Will To Walk To The Heavenly Home With The Lord Christ!

We Must Lay Down Self
And
Live Life By Faith And In Faithfulness
And
Never Ever On "Feelings"
If
We Will Be Blessed By The Lord's
Grace, Mercy, Truth, Salvation
And
Ever-Present Faithfulness!

Who Woulda Thunk It?!
A Faithful God!

Jesus Christ The Lord
Our God Almighty
Is
Faithful, Kind, Loving, Giving And True
And
He Is Ready, Willing And Able
To Largely Bless And Eternally Prosper You!

It Surely Seems That Way!
I Know That I'm Going To Be Walking Differently
From This Very Day!

Peace Be Upon You!
Have A Blessed And Grace-Filled Day!
