Give Thanks Anyhow



It Is Not Easy
To Give Thanks In A Storm! 
It Is Not Easy To Give Thanks
When One's Heart Is Torn
But
The Father Has Given Instruction
For Us To Give Thanks ... Anyhow 
And
If We Are Going To Be Obedient Children Of God 
Students Of The School Of Jesus Christ
And
Servants Of The Master
It Is Become Imperative That
We Start Giving Thanks
And
Doing So Right Now!


Psalms 118:1 Inspirational Image 


In All Things Give Thanks! 
Give Thanks With A Grateful Heart! 
There Is None Good But God! 
God Be Merciful To Me ... A Sinner! 

Beloved, 

Our Good God Is Gracious
A Stronghold In The Time Of Trouble 
And 
A Pleasance
A Good And Peaceful Place Wherein To Dwell At All Times! 

This Same Good And Gracious God 
Bestows Mercy ... Enduring Mercy ... Upon Us All 
Whether We Are Faithful Or Doubtful
Thankful Or Ungrateful
Planning For Heaven 
Or 
Booked For Hell! 

Get A Grip ...

Hold On
- Against Common-Sense Or Apparent Evidence - 
To The Living Word
To The Holy God
To Truth Everlasting! 

The Fact Remains ...

Anything That Endures, Lasts
And 
Anyone Who Endures All For Christ 
- To The End Of Mortal Life -
Shall Live Again To Live The Enduring Life Everlasting 
In The Land Of The Forever Blessed! 

Please, I Beseech Us All
Hold On To Your Hope With Faithful Hands
Because
Our God's Mercy Shown To Us 
Can Never Fail To Bless Us! 

Dare To Choose To Trust, Obey
And Hope
And Endure 
Through Your Journey To Life: 
Enduring Mercy ... Jesus Christ The Lord The King
Is 
With Us 
And
For Us! 

Encourage Yourself ...

Pray! 
Give Thanks! 
Sing The Songs Of Zion! 
Rest On The Merciful Jesus 
And 
Know Of A Surety That
You Shall Be Forever Blessed! 

Jesus Christ's Gift Of Peace
Is
The Only Peace That Lasts
And
Almighty God's Free Mercy Endures Forever
So ... In The Name Blessed Forever
The Name Of Jesus Christ Our Lord The King:


"Peace Be Upon You
As You Experience
Almighty God's
Free-To-All Mercy
Today!"

JESUS SAVES: Joy Comes In The Morning!


Psalm 30:4-5 | Psalm 30, Psalms, Grief journey


KNOW YOUR SAVIOR:

Almighty God Lifts Up Those
Who Humble Themselves Before Him!


No Matter How Terrible The Day
No Matter How Cruel The Adversary
No Matter How Dark The Night Of Despair
Oh, Child Of The Household Of Holy Faith
Our God Almighty 
Is 
Right There With Us! 

Beloved, 

The Enemy Of Souls 
And 
His Minions Called Unregenerate, Unrepentant Man 
May Come At Us Like The Angry Sea 
With The Storm Of Wind 
But
Our Lord Jesus Christ Says To That Angry Sea: 
"Peace!" 
And To That Storm Of Wind: 
"Be Still!" 
Aka 
"You've Done Enough 
And You've Said Enough 
So Go Away And Know Your Place!" 

Brethren,

Please Dare To Remember 
And Believe 
And Trust 
The Word That Says 
We Are Neither Forsaken, Forgotten 
Nor Left Alone To Suffer Alone! 

Our Lord Feels Our Hurts
Knows Our Adversaries
Cares For Our Souls
Reveals The Way Clear
And 
Heals All Our Wounds! 

Trust The Lord's Love 
And 
Hold On To The Lord's Strong Arm: 
He Makes A Way Where There Is None Visible
Sends Ravens With Food
And 
Pours Water Out Of Impermeable Rock! 

The Devil Is The Liar! 
Give The Living, Loving God Glory, Praise And Honor! 
Pray: Don't Yield To Decimating Doubt! 
Let No One Steal Your Joy In Jesus! 
Peace Be Upon Us All!




KNOW YOUR ADVERSARY:

Satan Eggs On To Folly
And
Lifts Up Those
Whom He Will Destroy!!

VESPERS AT THE END OF THE SABBATH: Don't Make Your Guts A Hog Trough!

Don't Make Your Guts A Hog Trough
By Eating The Swill Of The World!
The Lord God Of Grace
Has Prepared For You A Personal Place
With Good Eats On Your Solid Gold Plate:
Don't Let Damnation Be Your Last Date!

The Living Word Is For The Wise
And
Pig Swill Is For Pigs
Those Scavengers Unclean
Who Will Not Fear To Rip You Apart
For They Are That Mean
So Leave Them To The Devils
Who Chose In Them To Reside
And
Get You To The Master In Haste
And
In His Living Word
And
Loving Care 
Safe, Protected, Fed And Led
Confidently Abide!

The Word Works!

There Never Has Been
Nor Will There Ever Be
A Swinish Rebirth
So See To Your Self, Dear One
And
Recognize Your Great Peril
- Should You Be Fond Of The Dying World -
And
Dare To Return Home 
To The Father's Safe And Secure
Well-Provided Safe Fold! 
Dare To Turn Away From
And
Forsake The Disobedient World! 

Tears And Prayers Are Languages
That
The Lord God Of Grace
Understands!

Then said he unto me, Fear not, Daniel: for from the first day ...


The Words Of The World
Can Do Nothing To Save Us From Self
Nor From Sin And Satan
And
We Would All Do Well To Exercise Faith
And
Dare To Truly Believe That The Good Lord Hears 
And 
Acts Upon 
Our Fervent Prayers Of Faith! 

When We Seek To Understand The Scriptures 
And 
We Discipline Ourselves In The Lord's Sight
Our Prayers Are Heard 
And 
The Lord Comes To Us:
Of Life, He Is The Light! 

Beloved, 

Our Almighty God 
Is 
The God Of Order 
And 
Everything That He Does Is Well Done 
And 
Always On Time! 

Please Understand That Satan And His Satanic Army 
Are Sworn To Destroy Us 
But
Jesus Christ The Savior 
And 
The Holy Heavenly Angels
Because Of 
Christ's Sacrifice On Calvary
Are Dedicated To Ensuring Our Salvation: 
Only One Side Shall Win!
Dare To Take Your Pick As One Of The Lord's Kin! 

I Beseech Us All
To Dare To Feed On Jesus 
And 
Choose To Live To Live With Our Jesus Christ! 

Please Dedicate Your Life
Your Prayers
Your Hopes 
And 
Your Dreams 
To Almighty God And The Kingdom Of The Blessed 
By Your Willing Obedience To The Ways Of Truth! 

Prayer Is A Weapon 
So Feed Your Longing-For-Truth Soul
- Not Your Lustful Sinful Self -
And 
Diligently Choose To Seek The Lord
His Love, His Light 
And 
His Life!

Remember ...

Glory Awaits The Humbly-Obedient
Enduring, Prayerful
Faithful Saints Of God And Christ!
May The Peace Of Almighty God
Be Our Rest Now ... And Forever!

HAPPY SABBATH + Bread 'N Fish Christianity!?! + PRAYER: Father, Please Help Us To Embrace The Holy Way!


Happy Sabbath Family! #HappySabbath #CreationSabbath #pause ...


... And Then Kevin Unloaded On Her
And Emphatically Called Her A Bread 'N Fish Christian!

Huh!

Is That All That You Are Going To Say!?!

Sure!

Come On, Granny Ma!
You Must Have Something To Say About This Abuse!

Well, Since You Insist
I'll Let My Bible Do The Talking For Me!
Jesus Christ's Word Are Always On Point
And
Then We Will Pray!

Remember ...

The Word Of God Does Not Lie Or Prevaricate!


John 6:26 KJV - Jesus answered them and said, Verily, verily, I ...



Beloved,

The Word Of God Always Edifies
Those Who Are Willing To Be Taught
And
Those Who Choose To Learn
And
Desire To Be Led Into The Paths Of Righteousness!

Too Many Of Us Are Only Going After The Lord Christ
Because
We Have Been Told Or Encouraged To Expect That
The Lord Will Prosper Us ... Fatten Us Up
And
Fill Our Empty Treasure Chests!
Dare To Ask The Lord For Something
Which Will Last For Eternity!

Many Of Us Do Not Love The Lord Or His Word
And
Many Of Us Are In The Church Of The Living God
To Get The Hook-Up That Will Make People Look-Up To Us
Because
We Have A Lil' Something In The Bank!

I Do Not Understand This Penchant For Worldly Riches
When The Lord Christ Has Clearly Stated That
We Should Store Up Our Treasure In Heaven
And
Made It Plain That We Shall Walk On Streets Of Gold!
The City Is Pure Gold!

Consider If You Will
What It Will Mean To See Yourself 
And 
All Your Neighbors
Wearing Gold Crowns
And
Holding And Playing On Gold Harps
And
Living In A City With Twelve Foundations
Which Are All Of Precious Stones!

I Am Telling Us All ... Plainly
"Only What We Do For Jesus Christ Shall Last!"
So Please Stop Looking At Jesus 
As Though He Is The Butcher
The Baker
The Banker 
And 
The Builder Of Earthly Mansions Which Shall Surely Burn
When He Shall ... In All His Glory
Come To Take His Faithful People To Their Eternal Home!

Do Not Forget ...

Jesus Christ Has Already Done Everything For Us
So Let Us Be Wise ... Unto Soul Salvation
And
Cease To Hunger After Red Roses And Mortal Man's Royal Riches!


PRAYER:

In Faith, Lord
We Come Bearing Burdens To Offload
And
We Plead With You To Help Us
To Get Our Priorities Straight And In Order!
Please Help Us To Follow The Lord Christ
And Not
Popular Religion That Is Going Into The Dark Night!

Help Us, Dear Father, 
To Love You Because You Loved Us First 
And Not
For The Bread And Fishes
Your Provision By Which We Are Fed! 


Please Help Us To Embrace The Holy Way

The Saving Truth
And
The Guiding Light 
And
To Heed The Leading Of The Holy Spirit Of Truth
- His Guidance And Correction -
Which Will Cause Us Your Heart Ever To Delight! 


Help Us To Embrace The Good Influence
Of 

The Holy Angels Excelling In Strength
Your Messengers And Our Protection
Who Labour To Help Us 
To Arrive Safely At The Heavenly Home! 


Please Help Us, Dear Father, 

To Accept And Absorb 
The Living, Holy, Word That
Points, Prepares, Prompts 
And
Draws Us Gently Towards You 
Even As It Steadily Pushes Us Away 
From Self, Sin And Satan! 


Lord, 

We Have Much To Be Grateful For 
And
We Give You Glory, Thanks And Praise
And
Plead For The Outpouring 
And
The Indwelling Of The Holy Spirit 
So That We Will Be Obedient
Willing To Work
And
Ever Faithful 
For The Length Of Our Pilgrim Journey
And
Then Forever! 


Please Comfort And Bless Us 
To Follow Truth
Do Good
And
Live According To Your Holy Will
And
In Your Prescribed Way
So That We May Enter Life Eternal

Because
We Believe In And Trust You Wholly! 
We Humbly Ask For These Few Mercies 
In Jesus' Holy Name!
We Love You, Lord!
Please Come For Us Soon! 
AMEN.

AMBASSADORS FOR CHRIST: Shine, Shine, Shine!



John 15:5 - KJV - Bible verse of the day - DailyVerses.net



When We Are Attached To Jesus Christ 
And 
Are Drawing All Our Sustenance, Our Nourishment, From Him Alone
Our Thoughts And Desires
Our Words And Deeds Aka Our Conduct And Character 
Are Changed To Be Like Christ's! 

We Are What We Eat! 
We Get Fleas From Where We Sleep! 
We Are Changed By What, By Whom, We Behold
And
We Emulate What, By Ear, We Devour! 
Everything Leads Us To The Judgment Hour!

We May Say To All Who Will Hear Us That 
We Are Born-Again, Bible-Believing
Spirit-Filled, Faithful-To-Christ
Heaven-Bound Christians 
But
Unless
And 
Until 
Our Outward Showing Reflects Our Inward Changing
It Is All Hot Air! 
We Will Be Just Shooting The Breeze
Speaking Just Because We Still Have Within Us 
The Breath Of God Which Animates Our Jars Of Clay! 

Beloved, 

General Moses Was In God's Presence Forty Days 
And 
When He Returned To His People
They All Positively Knew It: He Shone Gloriously! 

Is Your Life Perfumed With The Grace Of Heaven
Giving A Blessed Hint To All Observers
- Interested Or Bearing Malice -
That You Are Almighty God's Property
And
You Are Heading To Glory!?! 

Can You Say With Exact Clearness That
Your Present Life Is Leading You Unerringly
To The Heavenly Home!?! 

Does The World Really See Jesus Christ's Holy Light 
Shining Out Of Your Private Life 
And 
Your Published Persona!?! 

Will Anyone Say Of You That 
They Know Of A Surety That You Have Been With 
And 
Are Shut In With Our Lord, Christ The King!?! 

Did You Shine For Jesus Today!?! 
Will You Shine For Jesus On The New Day Just Ahead
- Should Life Be Spared - 
And
You Are Granted Another Opportunity
To Do The Good And The Right
And
To Be A Credentialled-By-Faith Ambassador For Christ!?!

We All Have One Opportunity
One Day
One Life
One Hope
One Lord
One God Glorious
And
One Happy, Heavenly, Heavenly Home!
Won't You Please Let Your Light Shine Now
To Draw Some Wanderer Near To The Lord!?!
In Jesus Christ's Holy Name
Dare To Fill A Need:
Shine All Over Your World!

HEAVENLY ACCOUNTING: You're Gonna Pay For What You Say!

Matthew Chapter 12 Now there breaks out into the open a conflict ...

WORDS.SWORD
STOP AND THINK ABOUT IT!


"Talk Is Cheap!" 
"I Don't Pay Taxes On My Mouth!"
"You Can't Tell Me What To Say!" 
And 
"Words Don't Have Any Weight!" 
Are All Lies Of The Devil 
Guaranteed To Get Us All In Serious Trouble 
With Our Maker, God, King And Judge! 

Every Word We Speak 
Is 
Recorded In Heaven
And 
Every Idle, Corrupt, Word We Utter 
We Will Have To Give An Account Of 
Before The Almighty God
Who To Truth And Righteousness
Is Not 
A Noted Fraud!

Unkind, Careless, Words Hurt 
And 
All Of Us Who Take Pleasure In Being Bombastic 
And 
Love To Pompaset Saying 
"I Cut Them Down To Size!" 
Would Do Well To Wheel And Come Again 
With A Different Attitude 
And 
Perspective On What's Truly Important
Good, Right And Beneficial To Self And Others! 

The Tongue Is A Defiler!
The Unchecked Tongue
Is
A Destroyer!

A Lash Hurts ... And Stops
But
A Cutting Word Creates A Sound Chamber 
Where It Resonates Ad Nauseum: 
Don't Do That To Another Human 
Because
The Lord Doesn't Do That To Us 
Who Are Notoriously Rabid Sinners In His Holy Sight! 

Let's Check Our Indignation And Aggression
And 
Choose To Be Kind To Others! 

Speak Peace And Do Love! 
Recording Angels Are In The Room: Think Before You Speak!


Be Humble
Be Meek
Be Mild
Like Jesus Christ The King
The Lord Of Life!

PRAYER: Father, Please Feed Us With The Food That You Know That We Need!

 1 Thessalonians 5:17 KJV - Pray without ceasing. | Blessed quotes ...


Heavenly Father, 
We Come In Faith All Doubts Discarded! 

Please Help Us To Remember That 
We Are Your Greatly-Beloved Possession 
By Creation And By Sacrifice
And That We Have Been Purchased From The Last Enemy, Death
With Innocent Blood And Not Silver Or Gold! 

Please Help Us To See And Express Our Need 
For Jesus' Gift Of Salvation 
And, In Mercy
Please Grant To Each Of Us The Strength To Look Up
The Courage To Call Out
And The Opportunity To Confess And Repent Of Our Known Sin 
And Take Our Jesus For Our Everlasting Portion! 

Father, 
Please Feed Us With The Food That You Know That We Need
That Is Fit For The Age And Stage Of Our Journey To Hill Zion
And Continue To Bless Us 
With Your Daily Gift Of Faith That Cannot Fail
And Courage For The Journey That We Must Make 
To Reach Eternal Life! 

Please Help Us To Call Sin By Its Rightful Name 
And To Stop Making Concessions To It Or Excuses For It!
We Need Your Help, Lord
As Delivered Unto Us By That Sweet Spirit
The Holy Spirit That Leads Us Into All Truth!
Please Pity Us And Pour Out Of Your Spirit
For We Are Calling In Hope! 

Remember, Dear Father
The Physically, Mentally, Spiritually
And Emotionally Ill Amongst Us 
And Grant Sufficient Grace 
That Is Known Accessible And Available! 

Please Help Us 
To Be Kind To Ourselves And Each Other
And To Hold On To Our Blessed Hope 
For Our Jesus Is Surely Coming! 

May Our Love For You Grow 
As Your Love For Us Daily Shows Up And Pours Out!
We Love You And We Thank You For The Myriad Blessings
That We Moment By Moment Receive Of Your Holy Hand!

With Grateful Hearts In Known-Blessed Lives
We Thank You For Hearing And Answering Our Prayers
And With All Humility
We Ask That You Please Grant Unto Us These Few Petitions
For We Ask All In The Matchless Name Of
Jesus Christ The King
Your Only Begotten Son
Our Savior, Lord And God!
AMEN.

PRIDE: Wearing The Helmet Of Salvation


They All Attended The Banquet!
They All Were Eating The Fare
And
All Of Them Were Choking
And
It Wasn't A Game Of Truth ... Or Dare!

Pride Was On The Floor!
Pride Was On The Chair!
Pride Was On The Balcony 
And
They All Heard When Humility Declared:

Pride ... Inordinate Pride 
Goes Before The Fall
Which For You All
Is
Now Here Present!
Enjoy What You're Eating Now
For, Soon,
You Shall Surely Have No More Desire 
To Eat Liarman's Dressed Pheasant!

You Have Nothing To Boast About 
Unless Your Boast Is In The Lord Christ
Who Lived And Died
So That You May Die To Sin And Self
And
Renewed
Live Again
Nevermore To Know
What Foolish Pride Is Again! 


1 Thessalonians 5:8 But let us, who are of the day, be sober ...



Those Who Ride Vehicles 
Which Have No Protective Cages Around Them 
Wear Helmets To Protect Their Heads 
From Traumatic, Even Fatal, Injury
Unless They Refuse To Wear Them
Because
They Are Heaven-Daring ... Presumptuously Bold
And
Too Proud To Be Wise! 

We Are Mortal ...

We Are In A Warfare 
And 
As Fragile Beings 
Coming Up Against A Malevolent Enemy 
Who Is Working Rabidly 
To Secure Our Eternal Destruction
The Lord Jesus Christ Has Paid For 
And 
Provided To All Mankind
His Can't-Fail Helmet Of Salvation!
Don't Be Contrariwise!

Beloved, 

Possessing The Helmet 
Is 
A Good Thing 
But
Believing It Works 
And
Utilizing It For Safety And Security 
Is 
The Perfect Way To Survive 
And 
Prosper In The Fight For Eternal Life!
Save Your Own Life! 

You Are Not Wrestling
With Flesh And Blood!

Let's Be Wise ...

Jesus Christ Can Save Us All 
But 
He Will Only Save Those Of Us 
Who Are Obedient To His Living Word 
Which Calls Us To His Side 
For Protection 
And 
Eternal Security! 

Please Don't Be Prideful 
And 
Decorate Your Helmet With The Badges Of The World! 

Be Humble And Obedient
Trust Your Maker
And 
Enduringly Wear Your Helmet Of Salvation 
Even If It Is Uncomfortable
Spoils Your Public Image
And 
Ruins Your Hair-Do! 

Man-Made Helmets Save Lives Which End Anyhow 
But
The Helmet Of Salvation 
Leads To Christ's Eternal Life Of Which There Is No End! 
Obey The Word ... And Sleep In Your Helmet!
