Instant Justice!?! + PRAYER: Thank You, Lord, For The Blessings That Give Forever!

Never Get Comfortable In Or With Sin! 

Beloved, 

Think For A Moment Of What Our Lives Would Be Like 

If 

Our Savior Dear Dispensed Instant Justice - No Mercy - 

For Every Unchristian, Unholy, Unauthorized Thing That We Did 

And

Consider Where You Would Be 

Given Your Checkered Personal History! 

Also, Think About What Your Life Would Be Like 

If 

"Do To Others What You Want Them To Do Unto You!" 

Was Instantly Activated In All Facets Of Your Life 

Given Your Present Attitude, Outlook

And 

Personal Practice! 

Dear Ones, 

Aren't You Glad That We Have The Savior

Our Blessed Jesus

Who Is Touched By The Feelings Of Our Infirmities 

Because 

He Knows The Weight We Carry 

Because Of 

Sin Inherited From Our Fore-Parents Adam And Eve!?! 

PRAYER:

Father, 

We Give You Thanks And Praise 

For The Privilege Of Praying To You

The Holy God Who Has Given Unto Us

The Blessed Gifts Of Confession And Repentance

And

The Hedge Of Protection That Is

The Ten Commandments

And

The Promises Of The Beatitudes

The Blessings That Give Forever! 

Please Help Us To Choose The Way Of The Cross 

And

To Choose To Cross The Road  To The Other Side

When We See Known-Sin Approaching! 

Please Help Us To Do Good Because It Is Right

And

To Love Others As We Love Ourselves

And

Willingly Do All For The Love Of Jesus Christ

Our Savior, Lord, God

And

Soon Returning King!

AMEN! 

Peace, Beloved!

What Comes Out Of Us Is What Is Already In Us!

How Stunning!

Being Polite 

And 

Treating People How You Desire To Be Treated 

Is 

Now Considered Unbelievable, Amazing

A Pleasure To Behold! 

How Can This Be Possible 

If We, As Committed Christians, Are Walking In The Light That 

Leads To Eternal Life!?! 

Beloved, 

Is It Possible To Discern From Your Words And Your Deeds That 

You Are A Member Of The Pilgrim Band 

On The Narrow Way On The King's Highway 

In This Vale Of Tears!?! 

Harsh Words

Faces Rendered Ugly By Internal Conflict

Rage, Envy, Hatred

Greed, Insincerity, Unkindness

And 

Other Ungodly Thoughts 

Are Causing Our Conversations And Actions 

To Be Harsh, Cruel, And Unprofitable! 

Dear Ones, 

Remember, Remember, Don't Ever Forget That 

What Comes Out Of Us 

Is 

What Is Already In Us 

And

It Is What Comes Out Of Us That Defiles Us! 

Again, There Is No Law That 

Is 

Able To Stand Against A Meek And Gentle Spirit! 

Please, I Beseech Us All

Choose To Be Soft-Spoken 

When Loud And Aggressive Persons Berate You! 

Choose To Be Soft-Spoken, Gentle, Kind

And

Loving To Whomever, Whenever, And Wherever 

Because 

You Do Not Know If Your Voice 

Is 

Going To Be The Last Kind And Tender Voice That 

Some Dear Soul May Hear Before They Depart This Life! 

Kindness Is Not Weakness! 

Kindness Always, Always, Pays Dividends! 

Set-Aside Self: 

Please Be Kind! 

Peace!

Servers Will Get Served: Sow And Show Mercy!

Life Is Amazing! 

Can You Imagine Being A Person 

Who Acts Like Judge, Jury

And 

Executioner Against Anyone That 

You Feel Has Not Given You The Requisite Hat Off

Ring Kiss

And 

Great-Toe Lick You Know That You Deserve 

Because 

You Are King This, Queen That

Doctor See Me, Or Lawyer Give Me!?! 

Beloved, 

Behold King Saul

King Ahab And His Wife, Wicked Queen Jezebel

And 

Jezebel's Apple Don't Fall Far From The Tree Daughter

Queen Athaliah 

And

Consider The Lives That They  Embittered 

And 

Ultimately Ruined By Deceit And Deviltry 

Because 

They Didn't Keep Mercy At Home In Their Hearts!  

When You Set Yourself Up To Be "God Of All" 

When You're Nothing But A Non-Paying Tenant 

On The Lord's Beautiful Though Despoiled Blue Ball Aka Earth

You Never Have Reason To Believe That 

You, Yourself, Will Be Eventually Judged 

And 

Will Undoubtedly Cry Out For ... Mercy! 

Dear Ones, 

We Will All Do Well To Remember The Adage: 

"Do What You Want Done To You!" 

The Only Being Having No Cause To Receive Mercy 

Is 

He Who Is The Merciful God 

And

The Judge Of All Flesh

And Therefore

We Should Stop Thinking That We Are The Cat's Meow 

And 

Realize That Givers Will Eventually Be Receivers 

Aka Servers Will Get Served! 

Please Be Very Careful 

About What You Dare To Do To Others! 

Our Lord Jesus Sees, Hears

And 

Knows All Things! 

Judgment Day Is Up Ahead: 

Sow And Show Mercy ... Now! 

Peace!  

Contented With Or Contemptuous Of ... The Lord Of Life!?!

Have You Ever, By Will Or By Accident

"Mistaken" The Words Content And Contempt!?! 

Have You Ever Neglected To Be Contented 

With What The Good Lord In Mercy Has Provided For You

Even If It Is Biscuits Aka Crackers 

And Not Your Favored Raisin Bread With Pretend-Chicken Salad 

And By So Doing

Shown Contempt For Almighty God!?! 

Beloved, 

The Air Of Discontent Is Perfuming The Atmosphere 

And 

Infecting People 

With The Attitude Even Unto The Character Of Contempt 

Which Causes Many To "Show" Themselves As "God" 

And Thus 

Captain Of Their Own Ship 

And 

Master Of The Winds Of Strife 

And 

The Unstable Waves Of Life 

Driven And Tossed By Said Winds Which Have No Destination 

Predetermined By Finite, Frail, And Fragile Man! 

Dear Ones, 

Let Us This Day Disabuse Ourselves Of 

The Fallacious Aka False "Knowledge" That 

We May Hold The Eternal God In Contempt

As A Being Of No Value

And 

Despised

And 

Escape Unscathed! 

Jesus Christ Is Almighty God In Flesh 

And 

We Are Because He Is 

And

We Are Fed Because He, In Love, Provides! 

May We Consider 

And

Find Satisfaction, Rest, And Refreshing In Knowing That 

All That We Have ... And Are

Our Blessed Jesus Provides! 

Please Hold Sin ... And Self ... In Contempt 

And 

Not Our Dear Savior Jesus

By Whom We Live And Breathe And Prosper

And

For Whom We Should Live To Honor, Worship, And Serve! 

Peace!

Know The Way And Employ The Meek And Gentle Spirit!

Jesus Christ The Righteous

Our Only Savior, Redeemer, Friend

King, Lord, And Holy God

Told Us That Our Love For And Obedience To His Will 

To Walk In His Perfect Way 

Would Incur For Us The Malice, Hatred, And Wrath Of 

The Worldly-Wise Unmoved By The Holy Spirit's Call 

To Free-To-All Salvation! 

Our Lord Also Told Us Not To Be Dismayed 

Because 

He, Himself ... Divinity Clothed In Humanity 

And 

Walking In Humility

Had Overcome The World For Us! 

Beloved, 

We Will Be Called To Endure As Jesus Christ Endured

And 

We Will Be Equipped To Endure And Overcome 

As He Endured And Overcame The Malice, Cruelty

Unkindness, Torment, Torture

Deprivation, Denial, Dismissal, Disrespect

And 

Denigration Of The Masses 

By Employing The Meek And Gentle Spirit 

- Against Which There Is No Law -

Praying To The Father Without Ceasing

Working Whilst It Was Yet Day

Walking In The Will And Way Of The Father Of The Faithful

And 

Unwavering Obedience Unto Death! 

Dear Ones, 

Jesus Christ's Mission To Mankind For Mankind's Blessing 

Was Successful 

Because 

He Knew The Plan

Stuck To The Plan

And 

Worked The Steps Of The Plan 

Because 

The Foundation Upon Which He Walked 

Stood Sure And Secure On The Ancient Of Days! 

Do You Know Of

Remember Why

Recognize That

Walk Wisely In

Work Diligently On

And 

Watch Untiringly For The Plan's Unfolding 

While Being Readied For Your Part In Its Finishing!?! 

Let's Repair To Prayer 

And 

Let The Good Book Be Our Guide! 

Look Up! 

Peace!

VESPERS AT THE END OF THE SABBATH : There Is An Elevator In Endurance!

There Is No Point To Pride

No Satisfaction In Sin

And 

Nothing Graceful About Greed! 

There Is A Mattress In Mercy

And 

A Pillow In Peace! 

There Is An Object In Obedience

And 

An Elevator in Endurance! 

There Is A Push In Perseverance

Amazing Love In Following The Lord

And 

Worth In Walking Wisely! 

There Is Power That Comes 

From Praising Him Who Calls Us To His Side

And 

We Are Blessed Beyond All Measuring 

When We Walk In The Way That 

Leads To His Eternal Life! 

There Is A Train In Truth 

So Get On Board To Avoid Damnation's Gloriless Horde! 

Dear Ones, 

The Lord Jesus Saves Us One By One 

So Do Not Follow The Loud-Mouthed 

So-Called Powerful 

Known Wayward, Winsome, Wicked, And Wild 

Just Because You Want Things! 

The Loud-Mouthed Will Have Nothing To Say

And 

The Powerful Will Be Powerless 

In The Wondrous Presence Of Our Glorious King

Jesus Christ The Lord! 

Choose Wisely: 

Early, And In Earnest, Seek The Savior! 

Peace! 

HAPPY SABBATH + GRATITUDE: Let Your Tongue Be A Ready Writer!

 

How Often Have We ... In The Euphoria Of Blessings Received

Chosen To Do A Show And Tell Of The Things We Have Gotten 

And 

Have Totally Forgotten

Ignored, Disregarded, Or Dismissed 

The Grace, Mercy, Love

And 

Kindness Of The Giver Of All Our Good Gifts!?! 

Where Is Our Gratitude!?! 

Do We Not Realize That If Our God Took Offense 

At Our Graceless Oversights, And Downright Devilish 

"I Deserve This!" Attitude, That 

He Could Take Away Our Pride And Joy 

And 

Leave Us Useless, Homeless, Penniless

And 

Powerless For Our Boldly Base Behavior!?! 

One Leper Out Of Ten 

Knew And Truly Understood Where His Blessing Came From 

And 

Turned Back To The Master To Give Him

To Give Almighty God

Real Praise! 

Good King Hezekiah

After He Was Raised Up From His For-Sure Death-Bed

Instead Of Telling The Babylonian Strangers 

Inquiring About His Blessings That 

It Was The True And Living Holy God 

Who Blessed And Kept Him And His Nation

He Showed Them His Things! 

After They Left To Return To Their Nation

The Sentence Came From God

- Through The Prophet Isaiah - 

That All That The Babylonians Had Seen 

Would Follow Them To Their Homeland! 

Dear Ones, 

Be Wise! 

The Lord Of Life Giveth 

And 

The Lord Calling Us Home To Himself Taketh Away 

So Let A Thankful Heart Keep Your Bountiful Blessings On You 

And 

In Your Home! 

Give Almighty God His Owed ... And Deserved ...  Praise: 

Let Your Tongue Be A Ready Writer! 

Peace!

Sin ... The Gussied-Up Porker

Sin Is Criminal 

But It Is Not Justifiable ... In The Eyes Of Almighty God! 

Sin Can Be Accidental 

But It Is In Our Best Interests 

To Decidedly Consider Its Embrace To Be Suicidal! 

Beloved, 

No Christian Truly Trusting The Faithful Holy One

Will Ever Consider The Journey To Jesus And Joy 

To Be A Suicide Mission

A Mission Of No Return

And 

Deftly Decide To Have A Last Ditch Hurrah Blithely Sinning!

To Do Such Would Be To Give The Devil 

His Dastardly And Destructive Desire: 

We Can't Afford The Fall-Out 

For The Dues Are Usurious! 

Dear Ones, 

No Matter How Many Times You Wash A Porker

No Matter How Expensive The Pearls

Or How Rare The Perfume

A Gussied-Up Porker 

Will Always Be A Wallow In The Mud Besmirched Hog!

If We Do Not See Sin Through The Eyes Of Our Savior

Sin Will Always Be Enticing

Worth Following

Worth Excusing

And 

Worth Our Wholehearted Participation! 

Let Us, Instead, Look To Jesus Christ

The Author And Finisher Of Our Faith 

Who Died To Rid Us Of Sin

And Ever Lives To Have Us 

- Cleansed And Forgiven - 

Ride Home To Be With Him! 

Let's See Sin 

And

Walk On By On The Other Side Of The Road 

To Stand Where Salvation Is Stationed 

And 

Tenderly Calling To Us! 

Please Pray For Power ... And Press On To Glory! 

Jesus Saves Us From Sin: 

Walk In Accord With Him! 

Peace!

Walk, Work, And Watch In Obedience!

The To-Christ Order Of Operations: 

What To Do First! 

Do We Behave And Then Believe, Or Vice Versa!?! 

Our Holy Bible Tells Us That 

All Who Come To God Must Believe That 

He Is God And A Rewarder Of Those Who Diligently Seek Him! 

Simply Put:

"If We: Then He!" 

Put Another Way

If We Confess Our Sins

Then He Is Faithful And Just To Forgive Us Our Sins 

And

To Cleanse Us From All Unrighteousness! 

Dear Ones, 

On Your First Day At Your New Job That 

You Chose 

And

Was Accepted For

You Do Not Receive Your Future To-Be-Regular Paycheck 

Plus Overtime

And Bonus

And Travel And Entertainment Allowance! 

Only Performance Pays Off! 

Our Savior Dear Is Able To Say "If We" 

Because 

He Already Did The Necessary To Grant Us Free 

And 

Open Access To The Throne Of Grace

So We Must Know Who We Are Without Christ: Sinners Damned

Who We Are In Christ: Sinners Saved Aka Saints Of God And Christ

And 

The Requirements 

To Be Able To Wear The White Robe Of His Righteousness! 

In Order To Have ACR-A Clean Record Next To Our Name

We Must Accept The Offered Gift Of Salvation

Confess Our Known Sin

Repent Of The Evil

And 

Walk, Work, And Watch In Obedience! 

The Humility Of Worked Faith Keeps Us On The Way! 

Overcomers Are Faith-Working Believers! 

Never Forget It! 

Peace!

There Is No Oliver Twist Seated At The Table Of The Lord!

Nobody Seated At The Lord's Table 

Will Ever Have To Do An Oliver Twist 

And 

With Hunger Pangs

In The Shocked Hearing Of 

The Assembled Multitudes Of Likewise Famished, Ask: 

"Please, May I Have Some More!?!" 

Beloved, 

Our Blessed Benefactor With No Equal

Who Owns The Cattle On A Thousand Hills 

And 

Every Last Thing In All Creation

Has No Need To Issue Short Rations To Save Costs 

And

At The Same Time 

Line His Deep Pockets By Fraud! 

Dear Ones, 

Use Your Access 

And 

Your Humble Words Of Hope, Trust, And Faith! 

Boldly Ask "Bigly" For Your Blessings Known Bountiful! 

Just Remember, Though, That 

You Can't Ask The Lord For What Won't Bless You 

And

Glorify His Dear Name! 

Check The Living Word Which Is A Transcript Of 

The Holy God's Unchanging, Unchangeable, Character! 

The Word Works! 

Peace!

DOUBT DESTROYS: Look Up To Jesus Christ With Hope ... And Live!

We Love To Sing "All The Way My Savior Leads Me!" 

But

In The Midst Of Daily Trial And Constant Temptation

Necessary Test And Internal Torment 

We Suddenly Forget Who Is The One We Call Savior

And 

The Prophesied And Blood-Promised Destination 

To Which We Are Being Led! 

Beloved, 

Satan The Adversary Is The Liar: 

Jesus Christ Our Savior, Our Creator

The Holy God

The Only Wise God

Is 

The Truth! 

We, Even When We Have Been Unfaithful To The Faithful One

And 

Have Gone A-Whoring After 

The Truthless And Useless Things Of This Life

Have Abundantly Seen The Providences

The Wonderful Provision And Saving Graces Of 

Our Blessed Jesus! 

This Present Time, Dear Ones

Is 

Not The Time To Become Faint-Hearted

Denying

And 

Doubtful About The Goodness Of Our God! 

I Pray That We Will Stand With The Brave 

Knowing Jesus 

And 

Telling The World That It Is He, Alone

Who Always Saves! 

Doubt Destroys! 

Look Up To Jesus With Hope ... And Live!

What Looks Good On The Devil's Rack ...!

 

At The Blessed Storehouse Of The Ages 

Owned And Operated 

Maintained And Sustained By Jesus Cares

Cost-You-Less And More-For-Less 

Are Not Labels Accepted Or Displayed Among 

What Are Known As  Great Goods For One Solitary Reason: 

Satan Is The Manufacturer

His "Dummy" Corporation Is Called Sin

And 

Destruction Is His To-Die-For Brand! 

Dear Ones, 

Sin Does Not Give Second Chances: 

Salvation Does! 

The Way Out Of Sin 

Is

Through The Door Called Faith Works

And 

It Is Those Who Choose To Walk Simply

Kindly, Justly, Obediently, And Enduringly 

Who Will, By Free Grace, Turn The Handle Called 

Available Mercy

And 

Walk On Through The Door To Eternal Life! 

Please, I Beseech Us All

Let Us Remember Today That 

What Looks Good On The Devil's Rack 

Does Not Look Good ... Or Wear Well

On Your Christ-Died-For-You Back! 

Jesus Cares Is Good For You Now And For Always! 

Live For The Life-Giver: 

Know Your Value In Christ Jesus! 

Peace!

VESPERS AT THE END OF THE SABBATH: Converging Or Diverging!?! + PRAYER: Please Help Us To Pray Always!

 

Are You A Diverging From 

Or A Converging With The World Christian 

Aka Are You Different From The Worldly-Wise 

Or Are You As The Worldly-Wise!?! 

Dear Ones, 

If You Were In "The Line-Up" 

Would Anybody Say In Your Regard, As A Swear-Word: 

"This Person Is Not Like The Others!" 

Are You Standing Apart, Walking, Talking, Dressing, Behaving

As One Belonging To The Master Of The Wind 

Or As One Who Is Being Mastered By The Changing Winds Of 

This God-Forsaking World!?! 

The Lord Jesus Knows! 

Do You!?! 

Do I!?! 

Let's Seriously Think About It 

Because 

Our Being Possessors Of The Eternity Of Peace 

Depends Upon Our Answer! 

Peace! 

Prayer:

Heavenly Father,

We Come As Children Of Faith

And

With Pitiful Cry Ask You To Help Us

To Obediently, Enduringingly, Follow

The Living, Holy, Word Of Saving Truth

So That We May Know Of A Surety

Our Eternal Standing 

In Jesus Christ Our Glorious Lord!

Please Help Us To Pray Always

And

Not Faint At The Barbs

And

Threatenings Of The Evil One

But To Standing As The Faithful

Rooted And Grounded

Sheltered And Protected

Unmoved And Unafraid

Because

We Know That Our God Is Real And Returning

And

His Promises To Us Ever Sure

And

Only Require Our "Yes, Lord!" And "AMEN!"

In Jesus Christ's Holy Name

We Humbly Pray And Plead!

AMEN.

HAPPY SABBATH + Let The Lord Lead You With His Love!

Beloved, 

How Well Are You Able To Handle Disappointment 

Or, More Particularly

Are You Able To Handle Disappointment!?! 

We Live In A Fast-Paced World 

Which Accepts Neither Denial, Disappointment

Disapproval, Nor Deprivation 

And Yet

As Committed To Christ Christians

We Must Be Able To Accept All These With Grace 

Because 

Our Heavenly Father Always Knows Best 

And

Ever Does Right For And By Us! 

Let's Let Him Lead Us Today 

Because 

It Is Done With Abiding Love Which Does Not Suffer Loss! 

Peace!

PRAYER: Help, Me Lord, To Live So That I Let Nothing Be Wasted!

PRAYER:

Father, 

With The Heart Of A Grateful Penitent

I Give You Thanks And Praise For All Your Blessings 

- Seen And Unseen, Known And Unknown

Unexpected, And Unacknowledged - 

Lavishly Bestowed Upon Me This Day 

And, For Sure

Every Day Of My Life! 

I Love You, Lord

And

It Is Not Just For The Bread And Two Fishes That 

In Your Hand Will Always Feed The Multitude 

And

Leave Behind Food For Many More! 

Please Help Me To Live With The Mindset That 

Nothing Should Be Wasted

And

A Heart Filled With Compassion For Others

An

Hands Ready To Share To Others 

Out Of The Bounty That You Generously Provide To Me! 

Father, I May Not Always Like The Way That Life Goes

But

I Ask You To Help Me To Ever Remember That

If I Knew What You Know

I Would Wish To Be Led, Fed, Directed And Corrected

As You Ordain! 

Please Help Me To Never Embrace Pride

And

The Top-Lofty Spirit

Which Causes Us To Act As Though You Owe Us Something 

And

We Are Entitled To All That We Receive

And

More Beside! 

Please Help Me To Never Forget That

I Owe All That I Am And All That I Have

To Your Willing Sacrifice And Unending Love

In The Person Of Jesus Christ My Lord! 

Please Pour Out Of Your Spirit Upon Me

And

Bless Me To Follow My Shepherd

The Good Shepherd

To Your Haven Of Rest For The Eternally Blessed! 

AMEN!
