Don't Fear: Pray Without Ceasing!

Pray Without Ceasing! 

Pray Always! 

Let Your Requests Be Made Known Unto God! 

Pray And Supplicate Aka Plead With The Lord! 

Praying Is The Matchless Gift! 

There Is Nothing That The Lord Asks Us To Do That 

Is 

An Exercise In Futility Aka Wasted Effort! 

There Is Nothing That The Lord Asks Us To Do 

That He Will Not Equip Us To Accomplish! 

Beloved, 

Our Lord Jesus Christ Says Believe Him At His Living, Holy, Word 

And 

Pray ... And Don't Fear

Don't Faint

Don't Doubt

And

Don't Stop! 

Our Prayers Raise Us Up To The Living Holy God 

And 

Show The Lord That We Truly Believe He Hears Us

And 

Loves Us

And 

Can And Will Provide For Us In Our Every Need! 

Our Prayers Show Our Faith

Our Trust

And 

Our Hope! 

Brethren, Beloved 

Trust In Almighty God

Your Father In Heaven Who

- Through Jesus Christ - 

Blesses And Saves! 

Satan The Damned 

Is 

The Father Of Lies: 

Avoid His Colored Water Aka Doubt! 

Choose To Drink The Pure Water Of Life From The Lord 

Which Comes As The Living Word 

Through The Tap Called Daily Faith 

Which Cannot Ever Run Dry! 

Pray, People! 

Pray Like Your Life Depends It! 

Pray Like Your Future Depends It! 

Faithful Praying To 

And

Unwaveringly Trusting The Lord Christ 

Makes Daily Life Supremely Livable! 

Pray!

Pray

And 

With Enduring, Unfailing, Faith For Each Day

Plod On! 

Believe This ...

Great Is Our Heavenly Father

And 

Great Is Our Reward Out Of His Riches In Glory! 

In Obedience To The Lord's Will, Pray! 

Peace!

Death And Life Do Not Cooperate!

What Dead Thing In Your Life Are You Holding On To 

Or Better Yet

What Dead Thing Is Holding You In Its Thrall Aka Its Clutches 

With You Calling It 

"The Thing Most Precious!?!" 

Beloved, 

Death And Life Do Not Cooperate! 

Light And Darkness Don't Cooperate! 

Jesus Christ Does Not Cooperate With Satan

And 

Neither Does Truth With Error, Hope With Doubt

Nor Sin Aka Damnation And Salvation! 

We Must Get Our Priorities In Order! 

We, As Christians

Must Desire The Appointment To Everlasting Life! 

We Must Live With Hope For Glory! 

We Must Willingly Choose Life 

And

Reach For Pleasures Forever By Severing All Ties 

With What Does Not Eternally Profit

Edify, Illuminate

And

Satisfy The Heart Of Our Savior! 

We Must Sacrifice Now 

To Enjoy Abundance In The Hereafter! 

Please, I Beseech Us All

Do Not Cling To Dead Works

Dead Limbs

Dead Loves

Dead Dreams

Nor Living Liars Known Dead Like Satan 

Who Is Already Damned! 

Please Choose To Live 

And 

Cut Your Losses No Matter What 

Because 

Your Gains In Jesus Christ Are Amazingly Glorious! 

You've Never Thought Of 

Or Seen Anything Like What Our Christ Jesus 

Has In Store For Those Of Us Who Love Him! 

Dare To Believe The Word As Written 

And 

Dare To Be Blessed!

Peace!

Woe Unto Those Planning And Doing Wickedness!

Social Media Has Dumbed-Down Woe 

To Be WOE Aka "What On Earth!" 

But

Woe ... In The Word Of God 

Means Straight-up Sorrow, Grief ... Ruin!

Contemplating To Plan Sin 

And

To Deliberately Work Evil 

Should Never, Ever, Be Found In The Heart Of

Nor On The Resume

Nor In The Portfolio Of 

The Committed-To-Christ Christian! 

Soft Words

Kindly Deeds

Honesty

Truth

Peace-Keeping

And 

Peace-Seeking 

Are The Traits Of Character Which Our Lord Can 

And

Will Bless! 

The Lord Gives To Us His Rest 

So That We May Sleep On Our Beds In Peace! 

Why, Then, Would Anybody 

Choose To Use The Time For Sweet Sleep 

To Imagine Evil 

And

Then Get Up In The Lord's Light

Using His Strength

To Boldly, Fearlessly, Practice Known Evil!?! 

Beloved, 

Beware! 

What You Practice Becomes Habit! 

Habits Form Character 

And

Character Determines Our Final Destination! 

But ... 

Before We Reach Our Final Destination

There Is Also The Issue Of The Bed Of Affliction That 

The Unwise, Unruly, Willful 

And 

Wicked 

May Be Caused To Rest Upon At Length! 

Be Wise Unto Your Own Soul's Salvation! 

When The Lord God Almighty

In The Person Of Jesus Christ The King

Calls Forth Woe

Rest Assured That The Woe 

Is 

In Proportion To The Wickedness Practiced! 

None Of Us Can Bear It

So Do Not Go Blithely To Your Own Ruin!

Satan ... The Damned

The Liar Supreme

The Murderer Most Foul

Has Never Been

Shall Never Be

And

Is Not Now Your Friend: 

Don't Play His Games!

He Has Nothing To Lose

But

You Have Everything To Lose!

Please Think About It! 

Peace!

Incline Your Heart To Jesus Christ Our Lord!

Every True Believer In The Lord Jesus Christ As 

The Word Of God

The Truth That Saves

The Only Way To Get Home To Our Father In Heaven 

And

The Life Of Every Man

Completely Trusts Him 

To Light The Way To The Promised Land! 

Beloved, 

Trusting The Lord 

Is Not 

A Sometime

Maybe Here

Perhaps There Proposition! 

We Are Called To Walk By Unfailing, Unwearied

Unfaltering Faith 

And 

Not Lying Eyesight! 

We Are Not To Permit The Circumstances Of Life 

To Stop Us From Leaning Upon 

And

Solely, Wholly, Trusting Almighty God 

When We Just Want To Lash Out Or Give Up! 

Trials And Temptations Come And Go 

But

The  Word Of God

Jesus Christ The King

Stands Victorious Forever! 

Let Us, Therefore, Remember That 

Goodness, Light, And Truth 

Can Never Be Extinguished! 

Let Us Choose To Be Amongst Those 

Who Will Stand Up For Jesus Christ

Always Speak The Truth In Love

And

Unflinchingly Do Good! 

Truth Spreads Light 

And

Light Shines Out Of Goodness 

And 

Marks The Way Home! 

We Belong To The King Of Love

The Shepherd Of Rest

So Do Not Fear Your Lived Life 

Because 

Our Almighty God Known Faithful

Is 

He Who Has Promised Us His Eternal Life

The Life Which Mortal Life Cannot Touch Or Eclipse! 

Please Choose To Endure ... By Saving Grace

What You Cannot Cure! 

The Best Days Are Just Ahead! 

Brethren, Beloved

Believe, Trust, Honor

Worship, Praise

And 

Faithfully Obey The Lord Christ 

And 

Soon To Highest Heaven 

You Shall Surely Soar! 

No Matter The Matter

No Matter The Pain Or Shame

The Loss Or Supposed Gain

Incline Your Heart To Jesus Christ The Lord 

And 

Not To The Life Of Wickedness

Where The Name Of Almighty God Is Profaned! 

Peace!

VESPERS AT THE END OF THE SABBATH: Who Is Really Controlling You!?!

Please Commit This Text To Memory! 

Whoever Controls Your Mind, Controls You ... Completely! 

Beloved, 

It Is Not For Nothing That 

We Are Often Told 

Not To Let "Them" Get Inside Our Heads! 

For Christians, The Them That 

You Don't Want Getting Inside Your Head 

Aka Influencing Your Thoughts, Words, And Actions 

Are Evil Angels Who Desire To Help You To Destroy Yourself 

By Influencing You To Willfully, Knowingly

Disobey Jesus Christ The Lord! 

There Are Many Of Us Who Blithely Say That 

"You Can't Tell Me What To Do!" 

While Casually Allowing The Adversary Of Souls

- Through His Wicked Workmen Aka His Fallen Angels - 

To Influence Their Thinking 

Which Authors Their Words 

Which Directs Their Actions! 

Just Watch A Person's Actions 

To Know Who Master-Minded Their Thoughts 

Which Caused Them To Speak To Themselves 

To Empower Themselves 

To Indulge In Gross Folly ... Evil! 

Those Who Listen To The Holy Spirit 

Strive To Do What Is Good And Right! 

Those Who Listen To The Lying Spirit 

Willingly Do Whatever, Because ... Why Not!?! 

Those Who Walk With Christ Have Brakes 

Aka A Lively Conscience! 

Those Who Are Being Driven By The Devil 

Ride With Blind Eyes 

In A Morris Minor 

With A Nuclear-Powered Engine 

On The Broad "Smooth" Road 

To Self-Manufactured 

And 

Sure Ruin! 

Is The Holy Spirit Of Truth

By The Holy Angels Excelling In Strength

Really Influencing You!?! 

Is The "Thus Saith The Lord!"

The Key To Your Life!?!

Are You Really Sure!?! 

Peace! 

Look Up To Jesus Christ

And

Being Ever Obedient

- By Saving Grace -

You Will Ever See

And

You Will Always Choose

To Do Good Always!

HAPPY SABBATH + This The Way: Walk Ye In It!

 

Why Do We Dare To Say To The Lord Of Life

The Judge Of All Flesh: 

"Teach Us Thy Way 

And We Will Walk Faithfully In It!" 

And Then 

Boldly Choose To Walk As Rebels Without A Cause 

Following A Dragon Who Has Never Won A Fight

Against Our Beloved Savior!?! 

We All Have The Right To Know The Will 

Aka The Requirements Of Almighty God

And 

To Go About Doing Them 

As Our Marching Orders Of The Day 

So That We ... In The Time Allotted

May Sow Good Seeds Which Will Surely Bear 

Good Fruit Unto Righteousness That 

The Lord Himself Shall Accept In The Glad Day! 

Beloved, 

You Have Said That 

You Will Faithfully Follow Jesus Christ

No Matter What Your Lot In Life!

 

Why, Then, Are You Playing Pat-A-Cake 

With A Homeless, Earth-Tied, Fire-Bound

Unregenerate, Irredeemable Lost Cause Like Satan 

Through Willful Disobedience!?! 

Satan Cannot Return To His Former Heavenly Home 

So His Task Is To Make You As He Is: 

Dispossessed, Disowned, Damned 

And 

Marked For Destruction!

Choose To Be Obedient 

And 

Stay On The Straight, Strait, Path 

By Habitually Practicing What The Lord Preached! 

With Patient Faith Working For Love 

And 

With Willing Obedience

Rest Assured That By God-Given Right 

You Shall Enter The Pearly Gates Of 

The Home That Is Called The Paradise Of God! 

On The Path To Eternal Life 

Is 

The Truth That Hurts, Helps 

And 

Heals The Hope-Filled Heart: 

Never Forget It! 

Peace!

Do You Love Your Gifts More Than You Love The Giver!?!

 

How Grateful Are You!?! 

How Thankful Are You!?! 

When You Are The Recipient Of A Gift

- Be It Expensive Or Economy Class - 

Do You Hold Tightly The Gift Or The Giver!?! 

Do You Consider The Price Of The Gift 

Or The Love That The Giver Has For You 

Because 

They Thought Of You And Your Need

Or 

That Because Of Their Love For You

They Gave You A Gift According To Their Love 

And

The Depth Of Their Pocket ... Just Because! 

Beloved, 

Jesus Christ Thinks Of Us ... His Lost Lambs And Sheep 

Who Have Strayed From The Fold Of Safety

And 

Because He Loves Us With An Everlasting Love

He Gives Us Gifts Seen And Unseen

Known And Unknown

Unexpected

And 

Unappreciated 

But 

Always Needed

Out Of His Amazing Love

To Bless

To Save

To Convince

To Convict

To Comfort

And 

To Convey His Love For Us 

And 

To Carry Us Willing

Back To The Heavenly Home!

 

All Of Jesus Christ's Gifts To Us 

Are Out Of His Riches In Glory! 

All Of Jesus' Gifts To You ... Personally

Are Out Of The Heart Of Love That 

Will Not Let You Go Poor, Wretched, Miserable

Blind, Hungry, Naked

And 

Ignorant 

To Eternal Ruin 

Without Having Made It Possible 

For You To Be Rich, Happy, Comforted

Healthy, Seeing, Clothed

And 

Blessed Forever! 

Brethren, Beloved

You Are Loved Without Measure!

You Are Loved Without Limit: 

Dare To Love The Gift-Giver 

Whose Gifts To You Are Always Good And Perfect! 

Peace

With Jesus Christ The Lord

Is

The Precious Panacea!

Salvation Is A Fruitful Tree!

Think About It ...

Unconfessed Sin Is Unrepented Sin! 

Unrepented Sin Is Unforgiven Sin! 

Unforgiven Sin Leaves Us Unsaved 

And

By Choice

Unacceptable To Enjoy Jesus Christ's Glory! 

The Unsaved By Jesus Christ

Are Those Who Are Not Sealed By The Holy Spirit! 

Those Who Are Not Sealed By The Holy Spirit 

Are Those Bearing The Mark Of Satan 

And 

They Will Be Lost From The Living Kingdom

And 

Eternally Damned Aka Separated From The Living God! 

Can You Bear In Your Person 

What Jesus Christ Bore For You On The Cross Of Calvary 

When, In Anguish Of Spirit, He Cried: 

"My God, My God

Why Have You Forsaken Me!?!" 

Beloved, 

Be Strong In The Lord 

And 

In The Power Of His Might! 

Be Strong In Him Who Has

- By Shedding His Innocent Blood -

Promised Never To Leave You Or Forsake You! 

Be Strong In Him Who 

Is 

Our Refuge And Strength! 

Be Strong In Our Jesus Who, Alone, Saves 

And 

Has Made The Way Home Plain

And Is Even Now At Your Right Hand

Pleading With You ... To Please Draw Near! 

By Creation And By Redemption

You Belong To Christ! 

By Will And Walk

Please Show The World That 

You Are Owned 

And 

That You Are ... By Faith

Headed To Your Forever Home! 

Salvation Is A Fruitful Tree: 

Greedily Eat And Abundantly Live! 

Pass The Word Along! 

Peace!

THUS SAITH THE LORD: Consider Your Ways!?!

Our Lord Is The God Of Order: 

There Is No Waste In Order! 

Now, Then, Let Us Ponder The Fact That 

When The Lord Repeats Himself

It Is Important For Us To Heed What He Saying

To Take Firm Note Of Where He Is Pointing 

And 

Seek To Ascertain What His Word Personally Means 

To Us Individually! 

Beloved, 

When The Lord Twice Says: 

"Consider Your Ways!" 

It Is Because There Is Something Within Our Character

- Our Projected Behavior -

That Is Off-Center 

And Thus 

Displeasing In The Sight Of Our Lord Jesus Christ 

Who Is The Judge Of The Living And The Dead! 

Take The Inward Look ...

How Are You Standing!?! 

What Are You Doing!?! 

What Is It That You Are Doing That You Should Not!?! 

What Is It That You Are Neglecting That You Should Not!?!

 

What Wayward Thought Is Motivating Your Actions!?! 

Are You Bearing A Heavy Load Of Sin 

Because 

You Believe Your Sin Is Unforgivable!?! 

Dare To Remember This: 

Almighty God ... By Name And By Nature 

Is 

Able! 

Almighty God's Grace 

Is 

Greater Than Our Sin! 

Whatever Almighty God Asks You To Do

Almighty God Equips You To Accomplish! 

Brethren, Beloved,

With Prayer To Almighty God

I Sincerely Beseech Us All

Don't Fight Jesus Christ The Lord Aka The Truth: 

Fight Satan, Self, And Sin! 

Please Obey The Eternal, Living, Holy, Word

Trust The Sovereign Will Of The All-Knowing God

And 

Enduringly Walk In The Wise Way That 

The Lord Jesus Has Shown 

And 

Is Lovingly Showing You! 

Bend To The Living God's Will: 

Don't Burn For Walking In Sinful Ways! 

Think About It

And

Dare To Be Saved:

Truth Is A Sword

An Impregnable Shield

An Always-Warm Blanket

A Very Comfortable Bed

A Sea-Worthy Ship

A Calm Sea

A Sure Anchor 

And 

A Safe Harbor! 

Truth Is Jesus Christ The Lord

Who Is Food Indeed 

And 

Drink Indeed! 

We Are Immeasurably Blessed 

So Let Us Be Enduringly Bold 

And 

Stand Up Fearlessly For Jesus Christ Our King

And 

Against That Liar, Satan Bold And Damned! 

Please Let Jesus Christ ... By The Holy Spirit Of Truth

Help You To Fix What Is Wrong In Your Life

Because

Nothing Is Impossible For Him!

Jesus Christ Saves The Willing-To-Be Saved! 

Consider Your Ways

And

Be Wise!

Consider Your Ways AND Your Days!

When We Were Children

The Elders Spoke Often About Malice Before Thought

About Being So Bent On Having One's Own Way That 

A Person Just Acted

Right Thinking Be Damned! 

Today

A Favored Expression 

Is 

Playing Dead 

To See What Kind Of Casket You're Going To Receive! 

Beloved, 

In The Old Testament Times

Swift Justice ... As A Sharp Curb On Lawlessness

Was Meted Out For Ought Aka Anything That 

Brought Almighty God's Name Into Disrepute! 

Today We See The Multitudes Using The Name Of The Lord 

Like It Is A Cheap Cloak Aka Cover For Bold Sin! 

Consider Your Ways ... 

Not One Of Us Has Control Over The Days Of 

Our Years As Allotted By God! 

Not One Of Us Is Guaranteed To Live Five Minutes From Now 

So The Question Must Be Asked: 

"Are You So Invested In Some Cherished Sin That 

You Are Willing To Have Your Probation Closed 

And Your Judgment Concluded 

And Your Record Marked 

UNHOLY: Still  And  FILTHY: Still 

Because In Satisfying The Raging Lust Of Your Flesh 

'You Have More Head Than Brain!?!'" 

Is Satisfying Your Flesh Worth More To You Than 

Having Your Soul Cleansed!?! 

Willful Sin 

Is 

Deadly 

So "Act In Haste And Repent At Leisure!" 

Should Daily Warn You To 

"Look Before You Leap!" 

And 

"Think Before You Sink And Stink!" 

We Need The Lord To Breathe And Belong 

But

He Does Not Need Us To Reign And Rule! 

Think!

VESPERS AT THE END OF THE SABBATH: Misalignment From The Majority!

Committed Christians Are Pilgrims In A Strange Land! 

We Attract Attention 

Because 

Our Walking, Talking, Eating

Our Doing And Being Habits

Are An Affront To The Natural Citizens Of 

The Land Through Which We Are Passing! 

Beloved,

This Is As It Should Be! 

We Should Be Sticking Out Like Sore Thumbs 

Because 

Our Characters Misalign From That Of The Majority! 

Let's Truly Consider For A Moment

How Different Our Lord Was From Those Around Him!

His Name Caused A Stir! 

His Very Presence Caused A Stir Wherever He Went! 

He Attracted Some 

And 

Repulsed Others Of Those Whom Met Him! 

Those Who Saw Their Need For What He Shared Were Drawn To Him! 

Those Who Saw Him As A Meddler In Other People's Matters 

And

A Muddier Of The Waters Of Tradition 

And

An Affront To The Status Quo 

Were Repulsed By Him! 

Those Who Saw Immanuel

"Almighty God With Us" 

Were Lovingly, Gratefully, Graciously, Attracted To Him! 

Those Self-Deceived Ones

Who Saw Themselves As Gods Among Men 

Were Repulsed By The Drawing Fragrance From 

The Heart Of God Wafting Off Him! 

Brethren, Beloved,

Do Not Fool Yourself

Or Permit Yourselves To Be Fooled By Others!

By Almighty God's Great Grace

You Are The Salt Of The Earth!

You Are The Light Of The Earth

And

Living, Holy, Light Shakes Foundations!

Are You Living For The Lord!?! 

Is The World Seeing Jesus Christ The Lord In You!?! 

Will The Lord Of Earth And Glory Call You His Own!?! 

Are You An Enduring, True 

And 

Faithful Witness Of God's Love Towards Man!?! 

Prayerfully Think About It Now

While It Is Still Day

While It Is Possible For Man 

To Work Out His Own Salvation

With Fervent Prayer And Trembling! 

Peace! 

HAPPY SABBATH + Obedience Is An Absolute!

Disobedience Always Equals Dishonor

Disaster

And 

Death 

So Don't Fool Yourself By Saying That "It" Was Only 

A Little Thing! 

Life Is An Absolute: 

You're Either Living Or You're Dead! 

Faith Is An Absolute: 

You Either Have Complete Faith ... Trust

Or You Are Indulging Total Doubt! 

Love Is An Absolute: 

You're Either Loving Or You're Hating! 

The Lights Are Either On Or Off: 

Light And Darkness Do Not Co-Exist

And

Lest We Forget To Remember

Obedience Is An Absolute: 

You, Me, We Cannot Do The Lord's Will 

And

Walk In Our Own Way 

And

That Is Why Our Lord Plainly Says: 

"If You Love Me

Keep My Commandments!" 

He Also Says To All The King Saul's Of This Earth: 

"To Obey Is Better Than To Sacrifice!" 

Because

DISobedience Always Results In A Debit

A Sacrifice

A Charge Against Us

Body, Mind, And Spirit! 

Worse Still, Disobedience 

Is 

An Aphrodisiac Which Sharpens The Taste Buds 

For Some "Tasty" Little Disobedience Treat

And 

A Little Bigger Plate Of Disobedience

And Then 

All-Day, Every Day, Bold Partaking Of

The All-You-Can-Eat Buffet Of Disobedience! 

Be Ye Warned ...

Repentance Brings Ready Forgiveness 

But

The Consequences For Disobedience Remain! 

Beloved, 

By Almighty God's Great And Glorious Grace

Please Choose To Nip

Neuter

Maroon

And 

Kill Disobedience With The Two-Edged Sword 

Aka "Thus Saith The Lord!" 

Aka "It Is Written!" 

It Worked For Our Lord Jesus Christ 

So Let It Work For You Now, Today! 

Peace! 

Faith Doesn't Depend On Feeling

Trials Come! 

Is Your Faith In Jesus Christ The Lord Fixed Or Fluid!?! 

Is Your Hope In The Lord Like Solid Rock Or Like Quick Sand!?! 

Is Your Love For The Lord Just For The Loaves And Fishes 

Aka The Gifts And Good Times 

Or Is It For The Saving Truth

The Love That Loved You First

The Love That Will Not Let You Go To Hell In A Hand-Basket 

Without First Giving You A Way To Escape Your Self

Your Sin

Your Shame

Your Sorrow 

And

The Satan Aka The Adversary Always On The Attack!?! 

Beloved, 

Are You Able To Say ... Like Job

"Though The Lord Slay Me, Yet Will I Trust Him!?!" 

And 

With Shadrach, Meshach And Abednego 

While Facing Death In Babylon's Fiery Furnace 

"Whether Our God Saves Us Or Not

We Will Trust Him And Not Worship Falsely!?!" 

Many Of Us Who Are Christians 

Erroneously Believe That Saying 

"Jesus, Jesus!" 

Is 

The Key To The Existence Called

"Fair To Fine No Showers Expected!"  

This Does Not Biblically Compute! 

A Comfortable Existence Never Equals Soul Salvation! 

Ask The Citizens Of Sodom And Gomorrah 

If You Can Find Them! 

Let Us Wise Up 

And

Get Up 

And 

Stand Firm In The Faith That Cannot Fail 

And

Confidently 

And 

Enduringly Say Boldly: 

"The Devil Is The Liar: 

By Almighty God's Great Grace

I Will Walk Faithfully With Jesus Christ My Lord!" 

Say It! 

Believe It! 

Live It! 

Your Eternal Peace Depends On It!
