HAPPY SABBATH + BE ENCOURAGED + PRAYER: Father, Help Me Not To Be A Bread And Fish Christian!

Life Will Be Dark At Times 

But 

Our God ... Almighty ... Is Light! 

Trust Him: He Is The Truth! 

Trust In Him No Matter What Happens

Because 

He Has Given Unto Us Great Treasure In These Earthen Vessels: 
His Faith To See To Believe 

And

The Holy Spirit ... The Comforter Who Is Come

Who Is Here

Who Leads Us Into All Truth! 

All Of Almighty God's Gifts To Men

Are Good

With No Sorrow Added!

Beloved, 

Human Eyes Are Blind Even Though They Physically See

But

The Eyes Of Working Faith Ever Have Sight 

Because 
They See Living Light ... Truth
That Can Never Fail Or Fall! 

Our God 
Is 
Good To Us 
Even Though We Don't Deserve It! 

Pray ... And Hold On
And
Plod On While It Is Still Day! 

Jesus Christ Is Coming For Us Real Soon! 

PRAYER:

Father, 

I Believe You! 

Please Rid Me Of Any Unbelief That I May Be Cherishing! 

Please Help Me Not To Be A Bread And Fish Christian 

Always Available To Feast 

But Never Available To Help With The Work 

That Will Cause Hurting People From Willing Sinning To Cease! 

Please Help Me To Stay In The Word That Brings Faith!

Please Help Me Not To Be Amongst Those 

Who Tell The Good News But Don't Live It

Who Point Fingers And Pray Self-Righteous Prayers

Who Seem Not To Understand That 

The Cup Of Blessings Will Overflow 

But The Cup Of Planned Sin Has An Unbreachable Limit! 

Please Help Me So That My Living Is Not In Vain!

I'm Watching, Lord

And Praying 

And Hoping! 

Please Hold My Hand And Help Me To Follow You 

And In Living Truth 

Obediently, Enduringly, Stand 

So That In Perfect Peace 

I Shall Behold You, My King

And In Your Glorious Presence Eternally Stand

In Jesus' Holy Name I Pray And Humbly Plead!

I Love You, Lord!

Please Come For Us Soon! 

AMEN!

PRAYER: Feed Me, Lord

 

Father,

I Come In Faith

With Nary A Reason Your Living Word To Doubt!

I Have No Life Without You, Lord

So I Do Not Desire A Life Without Your Love And Kindness: 

I Look To You For My Own Soul's Salvation! 

I Cannot Do Anything Without You 

So I Choose To Do Everything With You 

For You Are Faithful And Almighty: 

I Worship Only You! 

You Are Life And You Are Love!

You Are Hope And Glory!

You Are Mercy Full And Free: 

I Truly Believe The Good News Gospel Story! 

Father, I Can No Longer Join The Maddened Crowd 

Full Of Self And Glutted On Sinning 

For I Have Chosen To Run The Race For Life 

And, By Your Word, I'm Intent Upon Winning 

And My Seat At The Welcome Home Table Filling! 

Sorrow, Joy

Storm Of Wind

Torrential Rain

Good News, Pain: 

All Are Par For The Pilgrim Journey 

So Bless Me, My God, For I'm Yours To Control! 

Please Take Me To The Water Of Life 

So That I May Drink And Be Filled! 

I Beseech You, Father ... You Said To Ask And I Will Receive 

So I'm Pleading For The Holy Spirit's Outpouring, Filling

And Indwelling Right Now, Today

To Guide Me, Lead Me, Feed Me

And To Order My Steps 

So That I From Saving Truth Will Never, Ever, Stray! 

I Love You, My Maker, My Lord, My God, My King: 

Please Help Me To Keep A Song Of Zion In My Heart 

As I Live For My Jesus 

Whose Praises I Wholly Desire Ever Always To Sing!

I'm Leaning On You, Lord! 

Thank You For Hearing And Answering Our Prayers Of Faith 

And For Granting These Few Petitions 

Offered Up In That Dear Name

The Precious Name Of Jesus Christ

Our Redeemer, Savior And Forever Friend! 

Please Come For Us Soon: We Desperately Need You! 

AMEN!!!

Heavenly Wisdom ... And Wise Men!

The Wisdom Of The Wise

Precludes Righteous Men

From

Abiding Lies!

In Contrast To The Heavenly Wisdom
Earthly Wisdom Invites Envy And Strife
Other Than Pure Thoughts
And 
Manners That Are Less Than Acceptable
And For Sure 
Not Praise-Worthy In The Christian 
Determined 
And 
Striving To Arrive Safely In Beulah Land
The New Jerusalem! 

Striving For The Mastery Of Self
- Striving For The Perfection Of Christian Character -
Is 
What We Should Be Doing Moment By Moment
Day By Day 
And 
We Should Cease From Indulging In Strife-Making 
And 
Being Entangled In The Strife That 
Satan And His Minions
- The Emissaries Of Destruction -
Are Weaving And Placing Around Us
To Cause Us To Fall From Grace
The Grace That Is Sufficient 
For Our Every Need And Care! 

Beloved, 

Many Of Us Are Using "Our Christianity" As A Foil 
And 
Are Saying To All Hearers That We Don't Like War! 

Surprise!!!
We Don't Like War 
But
We Do Love To Start Riots! 
Stop It! 

As A Matter Of Fact ...

There Will Be No Lawless Warmonger 
Or Rioter 
Or Envious
Or Covetous 
Or Dirty-Minded Potty-Mout' Hypocrites 
In The Kingdom Of Light! 

Be Wise, Wise ...

Brethren,

Let's Dare To Be Different! 
Let's Walk On The Straight And Narrow Way 
So That We May Cross The Separating Line 
To See Our King In All His Glory! 

Let's Walk Righteously 
- According To Christ's Christianity - 
So That We Will Be Blessed 
And 
Saved 
And 
Forever Blessed! 

Remember ...

There Is No Law That Will Stand Against 
A Meek And Gentle Spirit! 
Time Is Made For Change! 
Blessings Be Upon You! 
Peace!

RESPECT IS DUE TO A DOG: Speech Belongs To God!

Whose Spirit Is Moving Your Tongue!?!
Is It The Holy Spirit Of Truth
Or
Is It The Adversarial Spirit Of The Accuser Of The Brethren!?! 

Are Your Words Kind, Soft, And Uplifting 
Or Are They Harsh, Sure To Offend
Hurtful ... Demeaning!?! 

The Soul Bound For Glory

Should Know These Things!

Apostle James Called The Tongue A Fire
A World Of Iniquity Aka Planned Sin
Lit By The Fires Of Hell
Full Of Deadly Poison 
And Obviously
Doing The Devil's Dirty Work! 

Beloved, 

We Are Called Christians For A Reason: 
We Are To Light The World 
To Make It Wise Unto Salvation 
And 
We Are To Salt The World 
To Make It Suitable For The Storehouse Of God
Fit To Appear At The Welcome Home Table Of 
The Great King, The Eternal, Holy God 
Who, Himself, Was Of A Meek And Gentle Spirit 
Whose Passing Wouldn't Even Bruise A Reed! 

We Are To Be Like Jesus
Gently Drawing People To Almighty God 
And 
Not Repelling Them By Being Loud, Obnoxious And Unkind! 

Let's Dare To Ask Ourselves The Hard Questions: 

Am I A Good Representative For Christ And His Kingdom!?! 
Am I Edible Wheat Or Am I Burnable Tares? 
Am I Setting A Good Example By Being Honest Honey And Valuable Velvet 
Or
Am I Dishonoring The Father's Name 
By Spitting Nails
Brandishing Swords 
And 
Lighting Fires!?!

Believers Have Hope And Help ...

Let's Ask The Holy Spirit Of Truth 
To Guide Our Thoughts
Feed Us Good Words 
And 
Correct Us When We Go Sideways To Do Wrong! 

Everybody Ought To Know ...

It Pays To Serve Jesus Christ The Lord ... Faithfully
And
It Behooves Us Well To Understand And Accept That
Only Good, Kind, Obedient
Meek, Gentle People ... Peacemakers 
Shall Enter The Kingdom Of God
Shall Inherit The Earth Made New
Shall Bear The Image Of Jesus Christ! 
We Shall See Him As He Is!

Brethren,

Pray
And
Look At 
And 
Clean Out The Garbage Of 
An Unfeeling, Unkind Tongue 
If
You Desire To Go Home To The Glorious Kingdom! 

Through Almighty God's Love For Us
We Have Free Will 
And 
Freedom To Choose Our Own Way In Life
So Let's Choose To Be Pure In Heart
And
Let's Choose To Be True Children Of God: 
Let's Control Our Tongues 
And
Our Actions Today! 

Remember ...

Speech Belongs To Almighty God
And
Respect Is Due To A Dog:
Say And Do What Is Good And Right!

STAY IN THE WORD: We Need The Lord ... The Law !

Jesus Christ Prays For Us!

Let's Pray For Ourselves

And

Others!

Praying Changes Our Perspective Of Everything!
If You Do Not Commit Crime
Which Is Breaking The Laws Of The Land

You Have No Reason To Fear Law-Men Aka The Police! 

Praying Will Keep Us From Sinning

Or

Sinning Will Keep Us From Praying!

If You Live A Righteous Life ... Walking In The Light Of Life

- Being Careful To Follow The Law Of The Lamb -

You Have No Reason To Fear Having To Give An Accounting Of
The Carefully Recorded Report Of All You Thought, Said And Did 

Before The King Of Love

The Final Judge Of All Flesh 

Whom No One Can Ignore Or Escape! 

Beloved, 

We Should Be Careful Of 

And 

Fearful For Those Who Say With Unholy Boldness That 

They Don't Believe In God

Don't Care What God Says

Know That They Are Truthful And Good, Kind, Loving And Caring 

But 

The All-Knowing Almighty Ever-Present God Is Not 

Even As They Live Their Lives Like The Right Side Of A Bus 

While Needing The Breath Of The Same God To Live 

And
To Be Able To Self-Righteously Blaspheme His Holy Name! 

We Need To Think Before We Speak

Look Before We Leap 

And 

Consider Carefully 
By Whose Power We Rise Up Each Day From Sweet Sleep! 

Jesus Christ 

Is 

The Law Giver 

And

The Giver Of Life: 

Ignore Him ... Ignore His Power ... At Your Own Peril! 

Brethren, 

Let's Delight In Our Jesus Today ... For Love ... 

And 

Receive The Heaven-Blessed Desires Of Our Hearts 

As We Walk In His Holy Will 

On The Glorious Holy Way! 

Respect The Innocent Sacrifice: 

Obey The Lord And His Law 

OR

We Will Never Get Home To Share In His Great Glory! 

Follow The Living Word

Not Fickle-Fashion Faith!

Lift Up The Lord Christ 

And 

Live Forevermore: 

We Shall Enjoy Perfect And Eternal Peace!

The Word Works:

Stay In The Word!

There is No Sanctification Without The Holy Spirit!

Never Follow The Multitude

To Hear Evil

To See Evil

Or

To Do Evil!

Sanctification ... Our Setting Apart
Our Being Made Holy 
Is 
The Work Of One's Lifetime 
And 
Is Accomplished By All The Members Of The Godhead 
Who Said In The Beginning: 

"Let Us Make Man In Our Own Image

After Our Own Likeness!" 

Our Sanctification 
Is 
By God The Father
In Jesus Christ 
And 
Through The Holy Spirit Of Truth
By Whom We Are Sealed Against The Day Of Judgment 
When All Of Our Works
- Our Doings In The Flesh -
Shall Be Revealed 
Whether They Commend Us To God And Glory 
Or 
Condemn Us To Hell's Damnation! 

Beloved, 

Let Us Not Join With Those Who Lift Up The Father
Denigrate The Son 
And 
Deny The Holy Spirit 
By Calling Him "It" 
And 
Rejecting His Personhood By Making Him An "Essence!?!" 

Almighty God

Cannot

Deny Himself!

Creation Made It Clear That 
The Holy Spirit Moves 
And 
Works! 

Father God Made It Clear That 
Without The Spirit's Indwelling 
Men Become Vessels For Satan's Use And Abuse!

The Holy Spirit Came On Jesus As A Dove
And 
Jesus Christ Made It Clear That 
It Is By His Father's And His Own Desire That 
The Holy Spirit Was Sent To Dwell In And Amongst Us 
As Comforter, Teacher, Guide 
And 
Corrector! 

The Rubber Is About To Meet The Road
And
Now Is Not The Time To Be Unsure
Or Ignorant Of Who Is The Lord God Almighty
Holy, Just, Kind, Loving, Giving And Forgiving!

Let Us Not Deny Almighty God By Denying The Holy Spirit! 
Father, Son And Holy Spirit All Participate In Our Salvation
Participated In Our Creation
And
Shall Participate In The Day Of Our Final Redemption
At Jesus Christ's Second Coming!

We Need The Father,
The Son 
And 
The Holy Spirit! 
The House Belongs To The Father!
The Son Is The Door
And 
The Holy Spirit 
Is 
The Key In The Door Of The House! 

Remember ...

Godhead Three 
And 
All-Life-We 
   In Total Cooperation
      As Enduring Faithful Christians! 
We Shall Be Sanctified 
For We Shall Be Like Our Jesus 
Who Bought Us Back From Sin!

We Are Going Home To Our Father God 
And 
The Holy Spirit Is Here Helping Us 
To Get There Safely! 
Cooperate!

VESPERS AT THE END OF THE SABBATH: Faith, Wrath, Doubt!?!

Okay!
Now Let's Move One To

Faith Is A Conviction: 
No Tangible Proof To Have Faith ... To Believe ... Is Required! 

We Need Faith 
If 
We Are Going To Pray To The Unseen 
And 
Almighty God! 

Wrath Is Extreme Anger: 
Most People Need No Excuse To Become Wrath-Filled! 
Wrath Is The Choice 
And 
Favored Tool Of The Damned Devil! 

Doubt Is A Conviction: 
To Break Its Hold
Tangible Proof 
Is 
Required 
And Even Then
It Takes A Harsh Death 
To Make It Relinquish Its Dastardly Hold! 

Beloved, 

All Of Us Who Choose Jesus Christ The Savior 
For Soul Satisfaction 
Must Give Up Wrath 
And 
Kill Doubt! 

We Must Embrace Faith 
And 
Abundantly Use The Daily Gift Of Faith 
Sure To Be Received! 

Despise The Words Of The Naysayers
And
The Gainsayers
We Don't Have To Find Resources Within Ourselves 
To Be Able To Have Faith In Almighty God: 
Jesus Christ Daily Gives Unto Us, Individually
A Share Of His Faith ... Which He Has Without Measure 
To Use To Help Us To Believe In Him
And 
Upon His Word
And
To Believe That He Loves Each One Of Us 
Individually
And
Personally 
And
Sacrificially! 

In The Name Of The Only One Holy
Please Exercise Faith
Decimate Doubt
And 
Dispossess Wrath
And 
Lift Up Holy Hands To Heaven
And 
Give Thanks For Present, Saving Grace 
With A Grateful Heart
And
Bless God For Coming Glory 
Which We ... Faithful ... Shall Surely Share! 

Dare To Believe! 
See To It That You Pray 
And 
In The Name Of Our Prince Shiloh
Be At Peace! 

Hallelujah, Jesus! 

AMEN!!! 

Brethren, 

Our Almighty God Is Good 

And Faithful 

And Can Be Depended Upon 

In All Things That Concern Us! 

Please "Use" The Lord For Love In Your Life 

To Get His Life Of Love! 

Please Let The Lord Use You 

And 
Your Love For Him 

To Show His Love To Others! 

Dear Ones,

This Is What Is Known As A Win-win Situation! 

Please Make Total Use Of Its Steps Regularly! 

HAPPY SABBATH + CLIMB: Jesus Christ Is The Mountain!

Nobody

Can Climb A Glass Mountain!

Everybody May Climb The Rock Of Ages

Jesus Christ The Lord

Who Breaks Down The Idolatrous Kingdoms Of This Earth

Smashing Them To Be As The Chaff Of

The Summer Threshing Floor

And

Destroying Them Completely

Never To Rise Again

To Trouble The Hearts Of His Saints Again

Or Any More!

The Stock Of Life ... 

Brethren, Beloved

Today We Visit The Store

And 
There We Shall Purchase 
Our Living Life And Travelling To Zion Supplies:

In The Appointed Day ... By Our Choice 
We Shall Either Eternally Live

Or Eternally Die!

Please Be Advised, My Dear Ones

That The Stock Of Life Store

Has Two Spirits From Which To Choose!

Both Of Them Are 100 Proof

But

Only One Of Them 
Is 
Distilled From Eternal Holy Truth!

The Store Of Life Also Has A Table

For Those Who Like Care Packages!

The Care Packages Are Two:

One Is For Those Who Like The Finer Things Of Life

And

Bears The Glitzy Gold Entertwined CC Brand Called 
Corporeal Comforts

And

It Has A Flagon Of That Decadent Fragrance Called Delicious Doubt

And

The Eye Wash Of The Stars From DeBauche And DeKay!

The  Other Care Package 
Is 
Simply Wrapped In Linen ... Glistening White

Which Has A Blue Border Above A Swag Of 
Pomegranates And Bells With A Single Starred Gold Crown!

It's A Very Popular Item For Browsers 

But

Very Few Shoppers Actually Purchase It

Because

It Has An Overwhelming Scent Of Curatives And Cleansers!

The Store Says That Those Who Buy It

Are Persons In Something Called "Need Of Cleansing!"

Who Specifically Ask For It By The Brand Names 

Prince Of Peace!

Perfect Peace!

Pray And Plead!

Promises And Power!

Pride Is Past!

Or 
"The One With The PP Logo 
With The Falling Red Droplet!"

The Last Thing I Want To Draw To Our Attention 

Is

The Free Gift Given To All Shoppers At The Stock Of Life! 

It Has The Strangest Name:

Default Position ... By Choice! 

That's An Oxymoronic Name! 

Default Position Is A Do Nothing Jobbie

And Choice Is An Active I-All-Up-In-This Maneuver! 

You're Right! 

We Are Free-Will Free-Choice Agents

And

We Have A Responsibility To Our Maker

Which Precludes Us From Going To Our Dusty Beds

Unwitting Or Unknowing Of 
The Final Decision We Have Made! 

We Are What We Eat!

We Decide Where We Sleep!

We Taste What We Speak!

We Associate With Whoever Does Our Hearts Treat

And

There Is No No-Decision Default Position! 

Simply Put

We Choose Our Poison
Our Passion
Our Position
And
Our Final Possession!

We Choose Our Door

We Choose Our Own Grand Exit

And

For Each Of Us 
It Is No Chore! 

Beloved, 

Satan Calls His Followers

To Climb The Glass Mountain

Which Has No Footholds

No Handholds

No Waters Still

No Pastures Green

No Bread Of Life

No Oil Of Gladness

No Food For Thought!

He Offers To All Unwary ... And Willing

The Thrill Of The Spill

The Thrill Of The Chase

The Heights Of Indulgence

And

The High Life With The Low Light

At The Bar Of Beguilement Where

Disappointment Sings The Blues! 

When We Climb Jesus Christ The Mountain

We Start In The Valley Of Decision

And

As We Walk The Lonesome Road
The Path To Life

To Ascend To The Glory Road

With Jesus Leading And Feeding

We Ascend Above Worldly Success

Self-Satisfaction

And

Ain't It Fun! 

We Travel East!

On The Savior We Feast

And 
Rise Above Self-Actualization

And

As We Climb Higher And Higher

To The Heights Unknown

Where His Outstretched Hands Call Us To Land 
And 
To Rest A Little While

We Are Refreshed To Take The Last Mile 

And

Energized By The Distant, Plain
Not Distorted View Of Beulah Land

And Ever Believing 

We Walk Wisely Unto Soul Salvation 

To See Eternal Life

Through The All-Seeing Eyes

Through The All-Knowing Heart

With The Ever Present Teacher Guide

With Whom We Shall Ever More Abide! 

Choose Now!

Choose Wisely 

And

May The God Of All Grace

Be Merciful Unto Us! 

A Charge To Keep ...

In The Name Of Prince Shiloh ... The Only One Holy

When Asked For Your Decision

Please Choose The Cup Of Blessing

Which Holds The Peace ... The Perfect Peace

That Passes Human Understanding

That Infinitely Provides Rest 
Unto Our Hungering-For-Him
And 
Thirsting-For-Righteousness Souls! 

Dare To Choose To Love 
And 
Serve The Gracious Lord! 
I May Suggest
But
All Decisions Taken Are Solely Of 
The Persuasion Called Yours!
