GROWTH FACTOR: The Seed!

A Living Seed Is Dead!
It Has No Way To Breed Life
But
When That Seed, Planted, Dies
It Becomes Alive
And
It Shall Bear Much Fruit
Out Of Its "Head!"

When That Seed Dies
It Cannot Live Again As That Seed
Because
It Goes Through The Transformation
With The Creator God Holding The Lead!

Do Not Think This Thing Strange!
Nothing Has Life In Or If Itself!
If The Lord Decides That Nothing Shall Grow
There Is No Created Being
Who Can Open That Closed Door!

We Would Do Well
As The Servants Of The Lord
To Ever Look To Him
For Direction, Correction And Protection
Because
It Does Us No Good
Like The Babel-Tower Babylonians
To Side-Step The Will Of God
To Protect Our Own Selves
From The Possibility Of Another Flood!

When We Walk According To The Will Of The Holy God
We Cannot Ever Be Manipulated
By The Wiles Of Our Adversary, King Fraud
Who Sought His Own Way
Refusing To Grow Where He Was Planted
And
Ended Up Being Uprooted
And
From Highest Heaven Being Transplanted!

A Seed Planted
Fulfilling The Will, Will Grow
And
Any Not Submissive To The Will Won't Grow
And
Their Lot Is To Be Consumed
The End Of Which They Won't Know!

Bow, Don't Burn!
Live, And Grow!
Produce Fruit Fit For The Garners Of The King
And
In The Day Of Harvest Celebration
Over You
The King, Welcoming
Shall Royally Sing!
To The Majesty Of Heaven, Brethren
For Dear Life, Cling!


Do You Desire To Ascend To The Heights Of Glory?
Easy!
Die To Self ... Daily!

NEVER POPULAR: Truth!

Truth ... And Popularity
Were Standing Before The Church!
Truth Was Standing By Himself
Off To The Right!
Popularity Looked At Him Like He Was Lurch!

There's A Story To Tell ...

Back In The Beginning
Truth Was King
Master Of Everything
Beloved Of The Brethren
Known Always For Saying 
Doing
Being
The Right Thing!

Truth Wasn't Always Convenient
But
Truth Always Was ... Truthful
Pointed
Direct
Faithful
Blessed
A Spiritual Success
At Least That Was Until
Good Old Popularity Always New
Always Current
Always Suave
Always Convenient
Blase
Totally Incapable Of
Holding The Fine Line
Willing Always To Treat With Those Brethren
Who Loved Broad Fuzzy Movable
Transient Transferable Technicolor
Inebriated Easily Repurposed ... Things!

Popularity Was A Pissant
And
Present 
Public
Pervasive
Persuasive 
Precious Truth Always Made Him Squirm!

Truth Is The Solid Rock:
Not Rock-Hard Cement!
Truth Is The Rock Of Ages 
By The Lord God Almighty Sown!

Ah, Well ...

The Great Day Of Decision
Had Arrived Without Fanfare
And
This Is The Day Heretofore Spoken Of
When Truth Stood Alone
His Continuing Presence In The Church
A Thing Up In The Air!

Popularity Was In His Glee!
He Had Also Been In His Cups
Aka He Was Drunk As A Skunk
And
He Thought Nothing Of It
Cared Not For Those Insular Few
Who Thought Him De Trop
Even Dissolute
And
He Was Pumping His Fists
Occasionally Thumping His Pigeon Chest
Ever Exposing His Bonafides
Aka His Jewels Gained By Bribes
And Tortured Beliefs
And
He Knew By The Twinging Of
His Left Big Toe In His Gucci Loafer
That He Was The Man Of The Hour!
With Truth
He Was Finally Settling The Score!
At His Word
Truth Will Be Put Out The Door!

He Had Repeatedly Asked Truth
To Fornicate With Him
But, Truth 
Being Always Truthful
Had Spurned His Advances
Rejected His Entreaties
Returned His Gifts
Blocked His Phone Number
Would Not Entertain His Worldly "Friend" Requests
And
Chose, Instead
To Stick Close To The Forever Friend!

Popularity Did Not Know 
How To Take "No!" For An Answer
So He Had Set Up Things In The Assembly
To Bring Cutting Present Truth To A Sticky End:
Doubt And Disbelief
Gainsaying And Carnality
Were His Choicest Henchmen!


Oh, What A Tangled Web We Weave

When We Practice To Deceive!

Facts Are Firm ...

Popularity Does Not Make One Good Or Right
And
Truth Does Not Make One Bad Or Wrong
But
Popularity 
Built On "Convenient" Truth
Is
Sure To Make One's Life A Blight!

The Blaze Of Glory ...

Present Truth ... Plain Truth
Stood Still In The Light Of Life
And
Watched As Popularity
- Present Popularity -
The Chosen Flavor Of The Month
Was Raised Up 
And
Then Ignominiously Cast Down
As The Thing Not Current
Not Viable
Not Passable
For That Time Of Life!
Present Popularity Had Been Built On Lies!
Known Lies!

The End Result Of It All ...

Unchained
Unfettered
Unchanging
Unaffected
Unfailing
Unpolished
Unspun
Uncolored
And
Unflinching
Truth Remained ... Resolute
Tall And Strong
On Solid Ground!

As For That One Called Popularity
He Was Put Outside
- No Friends -
On The Rubbish Heap Of Convenience
To Die!
Oh, How He Burned!



There Is No Eternal Profit In Popularity!
Truth Always Saves!

MAN MUST MAKE HIS OWN DECISION: The Trumpet Shall Sound And ...!

Every Man, Woman, Child
Must His Own Decision Make!

We ... Of The Household Of Faith
We're Listening For The Lord Of Life's Lone Trumpet! 

True, But Most Of The Nations' People Are Listening 
To The Enthralling, Encompassing, Orchestral Arrangement Of 
The Lost And Dying World!

We Do Not Dress, Walk
Or The Same Language Speak
For Their Customs And Practices Of 
Satan's Stench
Does Overwhelmingly Reek!

The Lord Said: 
"Don't!" 
Satan Says: 
"Do!"

The Lord Says: 
"Sanctify Yourself!" 
Satan Says: 
"Satisfy The Royal We!"

The Lord Says: 
"Confess, And Of Known Sin, Repent!" 
Satan Says: 
"Fornicate, Adulterate, Abominate
For You Will Soon Have Another Lent!"

The Lord Says: 
"Guard Your Heart!" 
Satan Says: 
"Let Everyone His Own Heart Regard!"

The Lord Says: 
"Invite The Holy Spirit
Your Daily Life To Lead!"

Satan Says: 
"Ingest The Spirits 
And As A Profligate You Will Succeed!"

The Lord Says: 
"Look Up And Live!" 
Satan Says: 
"Look Around And Live It Up!"

The Lord Says: 
"Have Faith!" 
Satan Says: 
"Have Faith, Fanny, Felicia
Felicity, Frank, Francis And Felix!"

The Lord Says: 
"Come Before Me 
And Worship And Bow Down!"
Satan Says: 
"Worship Before Me! Bow And Come Down!"

The Word Of The Lord
Is
Plain And Straight!
The Word Of Satan 
Is 
Ambiguous
And
Follows The Path Of The Accursed Snake!

The Word Of The Lord
Is
The Truth
And
Is The Light That Gives Life!

The Word Of Satan
Is
The Lie That Benights
And
Always Embroils One In Sure
And
Damnable Strife!

The Lord Jesus Christ Lives Forever!
Satan Shall Die Forever!

The Lord Jesus Christ Offers Glory
For Me And For Thee!
Satan Promulgates Heresy That 
Damns Himself
And 
Every Believing-As-He-Does Body!

Jesus Christ The Lord ... Always Saves
And
Always Will
Those Repentant Ones Who To Him
Their Broken Lives Give!

Satan The Piercing Serpent Cannot, Will Not, Save
And
He Takes His Perverse Pleasure 
From Knowing That He Wantonly Hope Kills!
He Always, Always, The Unwary Soul Destroys!

Choices, Chances
Fate Or Faith
Doubt, Disbelief, Trust:
We Need Truth 
So That With This Life 
We May Hope To Cope!

Man Must Make His Decision
For Good ... For Life
Or For Self ... 
To Live In Sin
And
It Is Certain That
Not Almighty God On Heaven's Throne
Nor Satan Bound For Hell
Can Stay Nor Steer The Decision!

The Bottom Line ...

Choosing Life Everlasting
Or
Everlasting Separation From Almighty God
Is 
The Known Sinner's  
Private, Personal, Uncoerced, Decision!

THE EXAM: The Examination Of Life!?!

The Book Of Love, Law And Light For Life
Implores Fallen Mankind To Bow, Believe
And 
Bend The Will Before The Lord Who Saves, Seals 
And 
Satisfies The Soul For Time And Eternity!

Facts ...

In Every Baby Born To Mankind
There Is The Possibility Of:

A Child Of God
A Student Of The School Of Jesus
A Residence For The Holy Spirit
A Worker For The Kingdom Of Light
A Doer Of Good Deeds
A Helper Of Man
A Blessing To The Brethren
A Faithful Friend
An Accepter Of God's Grace
And, Also 
The Dread Possibility:

A Rejecter Of Almighty God's Mercy
And
The Pearl Of Great Price
Christ's Purchased-For-Us Salvation
That That Is For The Accepter
The Priceless Gift Of Eternal Life!

Life Is The Open Book Exam 
That ... By Personal Will 
Man May Choose To Fail!

You'd Better Stop!
Nobody "Chooses" To Fail At Living!

You Err, Mon Frere!
I Never Said Fail At Living!
I Said Fail The Exam Of Life!

I Don't Understand!
I Thought They Were One And The Same Thing!

Regrettably ... And Yet, Thankfully
They Are Two Distinct Things!
You Are Born
Therefore, You Are Living!

Ding, Ding, Ding!

You Are Passing Through Life
Until You Fail At Living
Which Means You Are Dead
Rotten And Forgotten
No More Loves Or Hates
Expectations Or Disappointments
No More A Place Under The Light Of The Sun
No More To Receive The Blessing Of 
The Guidance, Correction, And Protection Of 
The Father's Beloved Son!

Okay, Okay! I'm Feeling You BUT ...

... The Exam Of Life!?!

Yeahhh!!

The Exam
Aka The Examination Of The Life Lived
By The Man Woman Child Born
Rich Poor
Free Slave
Red Yellow Black White
Wise Foolish
Learned Untaught
Pagan Christian
Religious Irreligious
Hateful Hurting Hungry
Happy Sad Filled
Gluttonous Abstemious
Is 

An Open Book Examination Where ...!

... What Book!?!
Nobody Ain't Give Me No Book To Study From 

To Take No Examination Of Life Examination!

Again, Mon Frere, You Err!
The Lord Christ
Via The Working Of The Holy Spirit Of Truth
Inspired Holy Men To Document For Us
His Basic Instructions Before Leaving Earth
For Every Single Human To Know!

Bub, You Know You Lie!
Not Everybody Knows Of The Lord Christ!
Not Every Body Is A Christian!
Not Everybody Can Read!
Not Everybody Speaks The Same Language!
Not Everybody Serves The Same God!

Ahhh, I Was Expecting Those Challenges!

One ... The Gift Of Speaking In Tongues
Aka Speaking In Other Languages 
Was Gifted To Mankind On The Day Of Pentecost!

Two ... Faith Comes By Hearing The Word Of God!

Three ... The Word Of God 
Shall Go Into All The World For A Witness!

Four ... All Mankind Shall Know Of The Doctrine! 

Five ... The Law Of God Is Written 
On The Table Aka The Tablet Of Man's Heart ...!

... Man's Heart Has Two Sides
Lungs Two Sides
Two Ears
Two Eyes
Two Kidneys
One Mouth ...!

... One Heart ... Two Chambers
Love For God And Love For Your Fellow Man
Duty To God And Duty To Your Fellow Man
And
That Examination Of Life
Covers Every Single Solitary Iota Of
Man's Humanity To Man
Man's Worship And Service To The Creator God
Without Exception
Absent Preference
With Clear Focus!

Did You Hear!?!
Did You Listen!?!
Do You Read!?!
Did You Do!?!
Do You Accept!?!
Did You Ignore!?!
Do You Gainsay!?!
Did You Reject!?!
Do You Believe!?!
Do You Doubt!?!
Did You Add!?!
Do You Subtract!?!
Do You Share!?!
Did You Prepare!?!

Do You For Your Own Soul Care
To Fear Him Who Did For Your Wretched Sin
Pay
So That He Could Before His Father Declare:


I Paid Their Costs!

Please Accept My Character For Theirs!
I Desire Them To Be Where I Am!
Protect Them Through The Strife!
My Spotless Life Has Purchased For Them
A Share In My Eternal Life!
I Have Made The Way Clear
And I Am Bringing Them Home
My Glory Forever To Share!


Amazing Love!

Jesus Made The Way
And
He Has Left A Road Map For Us To Carefully Follow
No Shortcuts
No Cutouts
No Switchbacks
No Detours
No Broadway
Only A Strait Aka Difficult
Narrow Aka Only Way!

The Only Way Up Is Forward!
If We Step Off The Path
The Only Direction Is Down!
If We Stay On The Path
The Only Protection Is Up
The Available Correction Is Holy
The Safety Is The Seal Of God
Satisfaction For The Soul Is
Christ's Salvation
By Our Departure From The Ways Of Satan
The God-Fraud
And
Acquiring And Maintaining An Intimate Knowledge Of
The Detailed Instruction 

In The Available Accessible Book!

He Gave Us The Book
And
He Expects Us To Open, Read
And 

Follow The Instructions!

The World, Sin, Self 

And 
Satan 
Poses The Questions
And
The Book
- The Good Book -
Has The Answers!


All The Answers!?!

All The Answers!

If That Is The Case
Nobody Will Fail The Exam Of Life!


Again, Mon Frere, You Err! You Err!

How So When You Said
The Answers Are In The Book!?!


The Answers Are In The Book
But ...!


... Don't Say It ...!

... The Book Is Considered A Decorative Piece
A Status Symbol
A Dead Letter
An Irrelevancy
An Out-Of-Step Communique
Wanting The Moderns
The Illuminated
To Sing Outside Of The World's Music
Outside Of The Self-Pleasing
Self-Serving
Self-Aggrandizing Tune!


What's Wrong With Self!?!
I Like Myself!


Loving Self Over Jesus Christ The Lord
Leads Self To Sin
Compliments Of Satan
Who Encourages One
To Reject Salvation 

Which Comes Compliments Of The Savior
Without Whom No Flesh Can Be Saved!


Spirit Of The Living God
Help Us To Open
To Read
To Understand
To Accept
To Respect
To Love
To Follow
To Share With Others
The Good In The Book
So That We Are Blessed
As We Bless Others
And
Bless The Lord ...!


... Bless The Lord!?!

Sure!
He Sacrificed!
He Gave The Book!
He Preserved His Word
And
Our Commitment By The Acceptance
And
The Practicing Of The Precepts Of
This Living Word
Tells Our Savior That He Is Loved
And
His Sacrifice For Us
Is
Personally Accepted!


Everybody Has To Go On The Record!
Pass The Exam And Pass On To Eternal Life!
Fail The Exam
And
Eternal Damnation 

Will Be On Your Permanent Record!

Oh, Man!!!

Just So You Know That This Is Real
Consider Disciples Simon Peter And Judas Iscariot!


Both Were In The Intimate Presence Of The Savior
But
Their Ends Speak
To The Two Classes Of Mankind:


Judas Iscariot Went Out From The Presence Of Jesus
And
It Was Night!
He Hung Himself!
Simon Peter Went Out From The Presence Of Jesus
And
Wept Bitterly!
He Was Converted To The Cause Of Christ
And
Encouraged The Brethren!
He Was A Pillar For The Lord
And
His Name Is Immortalized
On One Of The Foundations Of Zion
New Jerusalem
The City Of God!


So, Then
What Would You Say Was The Difference Between Them!?!

Judas Served His Sinful Self!
Simon Served His Loving Savior!
Judas Lived In The World In The Now!
Simon Lived For The World To Come Later!


The Truth Still Remains ...

Every Man  ... By The Evidence
- The Pure And Holy Evidence In The Book -
Must Make That Decision:


Lust-Filled Life Now, Damnation Later!
Christ's Selfless Love Now
And
Christ's Glory Later! 


The Ways Are Two: Light And Darkness!
The Answers Are Yeah! And Nay!
The Leaders Are The Savior And Satan!
The Destinations Are Heaven And Hell!
The Motivators Are Doubt And Faith!
The Good Gift
Is
Peace And Rest
Forgiveness And Salvation
Grace And Mercy
Hope And Help
And
Healing And Sealing!


Everything  Outside Of The Blessing ...!

... Is The Curse ...!

... Which The Book Shows Us How
- In Our Individual Lives -
To Get Said Curse Reversed!


Put Like That, I Need To Dig In The Book!

Once There, My Friend
You Will Find Hidden Treasure!


Believe Me, This Go Around
The Hunt Shall Truly Be My Pleasure!

VESPERS AT THE END OF THE SABBATH: Plead For Patience!?!

I Cannot Take This Anymore!
I Have Had Enough!
I'm Sick And Tired Of These Trials
And I Feel Like A Dog Being Carried By The Scruff!

Come On, Lacey!
You've Got To Hold On To Hope!
The Lord Is Our Shepherd
And
It Is Only Through His Merits
That We Shall Safely Reach Home!

Trust Him!

Oh, Just Shut Up Already And Leave Me Alone!
I'm So, So, Very Tired That
Right Now
This Very Minute
I Don't Even Care If ...!

... Please Don't Say That!

Why Shouldn't I!?!
It's How I Feel!

Lacey, Aren't You Forgetting Something Very Important!?!

Like What, Ms. I Don't Have A Care In The World
No Bug In My Salad
No Bee In My Bonnet
No Broken Nail In My Shoe!?!

I'll Act A Though You Did Not Say That!

Big Whoo Who!

Since You Are Intent On Feeling Your Feelings
And
Are Enjoying Permitting Satan To Color Your Rainbow
I Shall Tell You A Testing-Time Story
And
You Shall See From It How A Life
Lived For And In Jesus Can Go!

Oh, Goodie!
A Story To Put Me To Sleep!
At Last! I Shall Get Some Rest!
Speak!

Father,
Please Have Mercy On Your Dear Child, Lacey!

Aren't You Supposed To Be Telling Me A Story!?!

Help Us, Dear Lord!

There Was Once A Girl Named Rainey ...!

... You!?!

Yes! 

Rainey Had A Good Life!
Chairs Under The Table
Food On The Plates
Beverage In The Cups
Water In The Taps
Lit Bulbs
Clean Clothing

Warm Bed
Level-Heeled Shoes
Engaging Work
Love Of Almighty God

Joy In Christ Jesus
Comfort Of The Holy Spirit

And
Protection Of The Angels
When Suddenly
The Dark Horse Reared Up
And
Let Loose A Vicious Kick
And
Every Last Thing In Her Life Was On Fire
And
Not In A Good Way!

Rainey's Life Was Having A Hit Parade!

Poor Rainey ... I Can Relate!

Hit In The Pocket Book
Hit In The Head
Hit In The Hope
Hit In The Heart
Hit In The Faith
Hit In ...!

... Belief!

Rainey's Foundations Were Being Shaken
And
She ... I ... Was Being Tested
Tried, Shaken, Stirred
Fileted, Fricasseed
Milled, Pounded
Pushed, Prodded
And
I Was Feeling Things
And
Feeling, Feeling, Feeling Hemmed In
Overwhelmed
Coccooned ...!

... Inside A Dark Cloud!?!

Why, Yes!

Uhh, Huh!

The Light Of Hope ... GONE!
The Light Of Life ... ABSENT!
The Light Of Truth ... AWOL!
And 

The Electrician ...!

... INCOMMUNICADO!

Wait A Minute!
I Thought I Was Telling The Story!?!

You Are!
You Were!
You're Taking Too Long
!

Okay, Ms Suddenly Found Her Voice
Know It All!
You Tell The Story ... If You Can!

I Can And I Will!
I Suddenly Feel ... The Power:

Satan Was Doing His Boss Act!
He Was Watering Doubt!
He Had Installed Black-Out Curtains
And He Was Short-Circuiting The Channel Of Hope
The Channel Of Peace
The Channel Of Light
The Channel Of Mercy

And
He Had Seemingly Blocked
The Grace Notes Station!

I ... You ... We Were All Alone
Cut Off
Adrift
Listing ... In A Holey Boat

In The Raging Sea
At The Mercy Of The Storm Of Wind
Programmed To Destroy Us
Unless ...!

... In Faith, Nothing Wavering
We Plead For Patience
Not To Be Removed From The Crucible
But
To Receive Strength To Endure
Until
In Almighty God's Providence
The Dark Cloud Be Lifted Up
And
We Emerge ... Renewed
Refreshed
Reformed
Blessed ... Substantially Blessed ...!

... Until The Next Time ...!?!

Until The Next Time!

This Makes Me Think Of The Divide
Between The Egyptians And The Hebrews
The Chosen People Of God!

I Don't Get The Link!
What Do You Mean!

The Cloud Over The Hebrews
Provided Protection From The Heat
And
Direction In The Day!
It Provided Light At Night!

In The Day Of Impending Disaster
It Was A Shield Of Light For The Hebrews
And
A Wall Of Darkness To The Egyptians!
It Protected The Hebrews
And
It Frightened The Egyptians!

I Get It!
There Is A Great Deception
Being Perpetrated Against The People Of God!
Satan Counterfeits Everything That The Lord Does
Because He Can't Create Anything
And Because He Has No Desire That 

We Should Find Our Peace, Our Rest
Our Blessing In The Lord!

The Blackness Ain't Real!

Bingo!
Don't Trust Your Eyes!
Trust Your Faith
And
On Jesus Christ Rely!

Suddenly, I Am Feeling Blessed!

I Wonder Why!
Nothing Has Changed In Your Life
In The Last Thirty Minutes!

You're Wrong, Sweets!
I Have Just Enjoyed
A Major Attitude Adjustment
And All Because Of A Lil' Thing Called Insight!

Insight Gives Foresight
And
Foresight Provides Perspective
And
Perspective ... Gives Light
And
Light ...!

... Gives Life!

Jesus Christ Is Light!
Jesus Christ Is Life
And
When We Boldly Trust In Jesus
- Not In The Sight Of Our Eyes
Nor The Feeling On Our Skin -
We Receive Both Light And Life
And
Will Survive Satan's Inflicted Strife!

Jesus Christ's Light And Life
Is 
Our Survival Knife!

Remember ...

Word ... Way ... Walk ... Wise!
The Word Points The Way That
We Shall Walk Wisely Upon!

Don't Look In: Look Up!
Don't Feel For Self: Fear God!
Don't Cry Over The Lying Circumstance: 
Let The Light Of Life
The Word Of Truth
Constantly Edify
And
See That You, Always
By The 

"It Is Written!" The Lost Liar, Deny!
Deftly Defy!

Rainey, Please Pardon Me
For Behaving Like A Bear
With A Thorn In His Paw!

Of Course, Lacey!

Thank You, Kindly!
Now, Will You Tell Me 
What Was It In The Word That
Changed Everything For You!?!
What Is It That Makes The Difference To You!?!

I Stood ... I Stand
On A Simple Promise Of The Lord:




Where Did You Get Such Faith!?!

The Same Place You Should Be Getting Yours:
From Jesus Christ The Righteous
Our Savior, Lord, God And Soon-Coming King!

Do You Realize That There Is A Whole Bunch Of
Intertwined Things That We Must Participate In Daily!?!

Like What, Pray Tell!?!

Daily Grace!
Daily Faith!
Daily Strength!
Daily Blessings!
Daily Trials!
Daily Confession!
Daily Repentance!
Daily Growth!
Daily Dying To Self!

I Hate, Hate, Hate, Daily Trials!
They Are So Very Trying
And They Put Me In A Really Bad Mood!

Lacey! Stop It!
Jesus Said That We Are To Take Up
Our Cross ... Daily
And 
Follow After Him!

Indeed, He Did!

And, He Also Said
That It Is By Tribulation That ...

... We Shall Enter The Kingdom!
No Cross ... No Crown!

It's Amazing When You Think About It!
Wearing A Cross Is So Very Easy
But
Bearing A Cross
Is 
A Whole Different Kettle Of Fish!

Tell Me About It!

Chin Up, Old Girl!
The Lord Overcame
And
We, Too, By His Grace
Shall Do Likewise!
I'll Leave You With One For The Road:

HAPPY SABBATH + REBELLION: A Beautiful Jewel!?! + PRAYER: Thank You, Father, For The Gifts!




Perverted 
Is 
The Judgment, Sight And Hearing
In The Jealous, Envious And Rebellious Heart
And
All Who Take This Path To Power
Shall See Their Grass Wither
Never Having Produced 
A Goodly All-Glory-To-God Pretty Flower!

Korah, Of Hebrew-Exodus Fame
Was As The One Called Lucifer
Who Was Elevated Among His Brethren
But
Was Desirous Of The Position Of The Leader
And
Ended Up Being Cast Down Into Hell
Neither Having His Own Place
Nor The Place He Coveted
Which Led To His Eternal Disgrace!

Jealousy Touts Itself A Beautiful Jewel!
Envy Is The Setting In Which It Is Framed
And
Rebellion Is The Rich Attire
Gold!
Polished And Aglow
Bright And Bold
By Which The Heart Hardened
Puts On A Sold-Out
Spectacularly Foolish
Against-Almighty-God Cabaret Show!

Rebellion Is As Witchcraft
Known Denounced By The Living God
But
Beloved Beyond All Wisdom
By The Instigating God-Fraud!

Brethren, Beloved Listen Unto Me:

The Lord Does Not Play Mind Games
And
Neither Should We!

What The Lord Has For You
He Gives Unto You
And
Your Gift Should Never Be Trivialized
Because
All The Lord's Gifts Are Useful ... As Given
In His Service
So Do Not Be Rebellious
And
Your Foot ... By Turning Away
Nor Your Heart ... Elevated With Sinful Pride
Against Almighty God Lift!

Punishment May Not Be Swift
But
It Is Always Sure!
Repentance
Is
The Perfect Cure!
Deny The Liar
And
Get Off His Deceitful Lure!

PRAYER:

Heavenly Father,
Thank You For The Beautiful Gifts!
My Heart Is Grateful!
I Feel The Bliss!

Please Help Me To Be Satisfied
With What You Have Given Unto Me
And
Please Bless Me To Live With Contentment
Not Attaching To Myself
The Attitude Of The Ingrate, Ungodly!

I Am Your Child: I Am Truly Blessed!
I Am A Student Of The School Of Jesus:
I Seek Educational Success!
I Am A Worker In Your Vineyard:
Help Me To Be Faithful Steward!
I Am Wholly Yours:
All My Known Sins I Repent
And
Confess!

Please Bless Me To Honor You, Always
All The Days Of My Life
And
When My Day In The Son
In The Sun
Is Over
Let Me Fall Asleep In Peace
Knowing That I Shall Awaken
When The Last Trumpet Shall Sound
When My Lord Christ Comes 
To Take His Faithful People
To His Eternal Home!

Please Help Me To Gain
The Promised Victory
Over Sin, Self, Satan
Death, Hell And That Cold Grave
So That I May With All The Saints Of
All Ages
Rejoice In The Glorious Day!

Please Remember The Brethren
Known And Unknown
Seen And Unseen
Already In The Faith
And
Soon To Partake
That Are In And Out Of The Myriad Flocks
This Dying World Around!

Oh, Lord, Send Help
To Teach
To Serve
To Bless
To Point The Way
So That They, Too
May Request To Have In Their Hearts
The Blessed Guest
The Holy Spirit Of Truth!
We Need You, Father!

I Thank You For Hearing
And
Always Answering Heartfelt Prayer
For
It Is In Jesus Christ's Blessed, Holy, Name
That I Humbly Pray
And
With A Contrite Heart, Plead!
 I Love You, Father!
Please Come Soon!
AMEN.
