HAPPY SABBATH + Prayer: Lord, I Am Yours Three Times!

 

PRAYER:

Lord, 

I Am Yours Three Times

And My Heart Is Made Glad!

I Am Blessed And I Know It!

I Am Yours Because You Said That When I Pray

That I Should Say:

"Our Father Which Art In Heaven!" 

I Am Your Child!

I Am Yours Because You Said

"Trust In The Lord With All Your Strength

And Lean Not On Your Own Understanding ...!

 I Am An Eager Student In The School Of Jesus!

I Am Yours Because You Asked:

"Whom Shall I Send And Who Will Go For Us!?!"

I Am Your Willing Servant Ready For Duty

And Awaiting Your Equipping For Service!

I Am Yours Because I Know That

You Are The Creator God Who Made Me In Your Own Image

After Your Own Likeness!

 I Am Yours Because You Sent Your Only Son

Jesus Christ The Lord Of Life

To Die The Death Of The Accursed

So That I May Be Redeemed From Sin

To Return To Your House, My Father's House

Cleansed, Accepted, Made Incorruptible

And Immortalized

To Live The Life Of The Eternally Blessed

I Am Yours Because I Cried:

"Oh, Wretched Man That I Am!

Who Shall Deliver Me From The Body Of This Death!?!"

And You Answered And Said:

"Come Unto Me All Ye That Labor And Are Heavy Laden

And I Will Give You Rest!

I Am The Way, The Truth, And The Life!"

I Am A Sinner By Nature And By Long Practice

And Knowing That My Life Condemned Me To Death

I Cried Unto You

And You Brought Me Up To Your Level

As I Prayed For Deliverance

And You Ever So Gently Said By The Messenger: 

"If We Confess Our Sin

He Is Faithful And Just To Forgive Us Our Sin

And To Cleanse Us From All Unrighteousness!" 

I Humbly Confessed And You Drew Me To Your Side! 

I Started To Cry And In You, I Did Humbly Confide!

Lord,

There Are No Secrets Between Us!

All That I Need To Know, And Do

You Teach Me Day By Day!

All The Work Necessary To Be Performed

I Strive And, By Grace, Do It Willingly:

New-Day Faith Is Pay! 

By Your Living Word

To The Throne Of Grace I, Moment By Moment, Go

Because I Do Not Choose To Know Life

As The Sinning World Knows It!

I Choose To Use The Gifts You Have Given To Me

And My Free Choice, My Free Will, I Give To You, My King

My Father, My Lord, My God, My Savior, And My Friend

Who Has Chosen To Love And Keep Me In Your Holy Care

So That I May Have The Record Clear

The Character Without Blemish

And The Lot With No Lease

Because You, Being Ever Kind

Have Made Me Your Responsibility!

Soon, Very Soon

My Faithful Endurance

Shall See Me Crossing The Separating Line

So That I Shall Know As I Am Known

And See As I Am Seen

And I Shall Forever Behold Your Face

The Face Of My Beloved, My God Holy Divine!

You Are The Bread Of Life!

You Are The Water Of Life!

You Are The Oil Of Gladness!

You Are Giving Me Beauty For Ashes

So, Please, I Beseech You

Pour Out Of Your Holy Spirit Into This Jar Of Clay

Because You Are My All And All

And I Worship You!

I Love You

And I Sing Your Praises

And I Pray All These Things In Jesus Christ's Holy Name

The Dear Name Blessed Forever!

Please Come For Us Soon!

AMEN!

Do You Understand What You Say That You Know!?!

If You Say You Know Something

It Should Mean That You Understand It! 

If You Say That You Understand Something

It Should Mean That You Accept It For What It Is

Whether It Is The Truth Or A Lie! 

If You Accept Something For What It Is

- Truth Or Lie -

Then You Should Be Able To Act For Or Against It 

According To The Stated Will Of The Eternal God! 

Beloved, 

We Know That Jesus Christ Saves! 

We Understand That Jesus Saves Sinners 

From Sin, Self, Death, The Grave, And Hell! 

We Accept That We Are Sinners 

And 

It Is Us Each, Individually, That Jesus Christ Saves! 

We Act Upon Information And Belief 

And 

Personally Go To Jesus Christ For His Free-To-All Salvation 

And

Ask Him To Save Us 

And 

Keep Us Safe Under The Shelter Of His Wings! 

Dear Ones, 

Belief Requires Action! 

Faith Requires Trust! 

Grace Gives Mercy! 

And

Heavenly Glory Required And Requires Earthly Sacrifice! 

Everlasting Love Will Not Let Us Go! 

Know The Truth! 

Understand The Sacrifice! 

Accept The Love Like A Greatly Beloved Child Of God 

And

Act With Alacrity Like A Faithful, On-Duty, Servant Of God! 

Please Draw  Near To Jesus Christ The Lord 

For Life, Love, And Light! 

Peace!

VESPERS AT THE END OF THE SABBATH: The Way-Maker: The Forever Friend Of The Faithful!

 

We Often Hear And Say That 

It Is Good To Have A Friend And Bad To Want One! 

Okay ... But Let Us Carefully Think This Through! 

Beloved, 

Would You Take Anyone As Your Friend Just To Say: 

"At Least I Have A Friend!?!" 

Or

 Would You ... In The Abundance Of Caution

Choose To Choose A Friend Who May Not Necessarily Have Means 

Aka Money, Power, And Influence

But 

Is High In Morals, Emotional Maturity, And Constancy!?! 

Dear Ones, 

Satan Sells Himself To Man As Man's Welfare Friend 

But

He Is  Wayward! 

Our Savior Is The True Friend, The Way-Maker! 

A Wayward Person 

Is 

Willful

Given To Fits And Starts

And 

Is Malignantly Self-Centered And 

Known For Indulging Malicious Intent! 

Our Dear Savior

Our Prince Shiloh Aka Our Peace

Our Forever Friend

Is 

Our Only Way-Maker Who Has Taken Unto Himself 

The Task Of Blessing And Benefitting Us 

To Bless And Benefit Ourselves ... And Others! 

Satan Walked Away From The Truth 

And 

Cannot Be A Friend To Any Human! 

Jesus Christ ... Our Only Savior

Is 

The Truth

And 

Is The Forever Friend Of The Faithful! 

The Choice Is Clear! 

Will You Make Jesus Your No Sorrow, No Regrets, Choice!?! 

He Is Forever Faithful 

And 

His Hand Is Reaching Out For You! 

Peace! 

HAPPY SABBATH: Oh, To Have A Discerning Heart!

 

Discernment, A Discerning Heart Aka Mind 

Is 

The Gift That Almighty God Gave To King Solomon 

At Solomon's Request! 

Request Your Own! 

Discernment 

Is 

The Ability To Wisely Judge

To Clearly See The Difference Between Good And Bad Things 

Using Godly Wisdom 

And 

That Beautiful Hand-Maiden, Understanding

To Make A Good And Sound Judgment Call! 

Beloved, 

Everybody Is A Judge

A Critic

An Expert 

And

Everybody Is Wrong ... Dead Wrong

Unless Jesus Christ ... By His Holy Spirit

Has Got The Wheel 

And

Is In Control! 

Dear Ones, 

Let Us Cease From Being Everybody 

And 

Dare, With Humility, To Be Somebody

Aka Someone Whom The Lord May Use In His Service 

To Bless Others 

And

In So Doing, Bless Ourselves! 

Let Us Not Just Use Our Heads To Wear Hats

Or Only Use Our Eyes To Just Oogle The Pretties! 

May The Great God Of Heaven And Earth 

Enliven Our Lives 

And 

Enlighten Our Minds And Eyes 

So That We May See, Love, Live, And Share The Truth 

And

Deny And Defy The Father Of Lies

Despising His Lies And His Way Of Life

And

Let Us Dare To Show Others The Lord Of Life 

And

His Known Holy

Ever Good

Always Glorious Way! 

Spiritual Discernment ... 

Detect

Differentiate

And 

Discriminate 

In Favor Of The Divine Lord! 

Peace!

Stop Doing Dirt For The Devil!

 

I Don't Know About You

But 

One Thing That I Love About The Word Of God 

Is

That It Says What It Means 

And

Means Exactly What It Says! 

Beloved, 

The Unjust And Filthy 

Will Continue Being Unjust And Filthy 

And

The  Righteous And Holy 

Will Continue Being Righteous And Holy: 

There's A Distinct Line Of Demarcation Drawn In The Sand! 

Dear Ones, 

Since Our Lord Jesus Has Made Man's Positions

And

His Position, His Will, Perfectly Clear 

Shouldn't We!?! 

In The Old Days

The Elders Would Always Say To The Unruly: 

"Keep Doing Wuh Yuh Doing!" 

With A Peculiar Tone 

Which Pronounced Upcoming Disaster 

Upon The Unruly Aka Own-Way Person 

As Evidenced By That Or Those Persons' Words

Attitudes, And Actions! 

Be Warned ... 

We Cannot Speak Christ 

And 

Do Dirt For The Devil! 

We Cannot Think Salvation 

And 

Do Damnable Things! 

I Sincerely Beseech Us All 

To Live In The Light Both Day And Night 

And Thereby 

Refuse To Be Satan's Dirty In The Dark Play-Thing 

That He Is Using As A Pointy Poking Stick 

To Prick The Prince Of Peace! 

Let Us Be Wise For Our Own Selves And Our Soul's Salvation 

And 

Choose The Good Part 

Which Is Never In The Dark! 

Peace!

VESPERS AT THE END OF THE SABBATH: Get Rid Of The C.O.W Thing!

If You Have And Hold Every C.O.W 

Aka Common Ordinary Worthless Thing 

As Precious

A Priority

And 

A Pass-Key To Your Affections

Pray Tell How Is The Lord Of Life

The King Of Glory

Supposed To Knock At Your Door 

To Get Your Attention To Bid Him Enter!?! 

Beloved, 

Let's Get Real Here! 

Jesus Christ Is Not Going To Knock

At The Door Of Your Man-Made Mansion! 

He Desires Entry Into Your Heart-House

Where Your Invitation To Him To Enter 

Will Seriously Do You A World And An Eternity Of Good! 

Dear Ones, 

There Are Vicious Winds Of Strife

Devastatingly Destructive Earthquakes

And

Gluttonously Hungry Walls Of Fire 

Seeking To Put Paid To Your Existence 

And Then

There Is The Still, Small, Voice  

Waiting For Us To Be In Solitude 

... In Sorrow If Necessary ... 

In Quiet Contemplation

To Be Heard! 

Please, I Beseech Us All

Get Your Basics In-House 

Before Bedlam Has You On Blast! 

Get Rid Of Your Rubbish! 

Almighty God Is Here, Present, And Appealing: 

Be Still! 

Satan Is Here, Present, Deceiving: 

Of The Word Take Your Fill 

And

Remember That All That Fills Our Soul Is Jesus! 

Answer The Door!

Peace!  

HAPPY SABBATH + Your Choices Matter To The Maker, Our Master!

Life Is Beautiful! 

Life Is Also Short, Dynamic

Worth Living

And 

Is An Eternal And Truly Bountiful Blessing 

To All Who Humbly Choose To Let Our Creator, The Life-Giver

Steadfastly Lead Them To Everlasting Life 

In The Land Of Love And Glory! 

Beloved, 

We Will Undoubtedly Make Mistakes 

Because 

We Are Flesh

Born In Sin 

And 

Shapened, Carved, Constructed, Built Up

By Iniquity Aka Planned Sin! 

Dear Ones, 

Let No One Fool You: 

We Have Free Will 

And 

The Freedom To Choose How To Behave 

And 

How To Live

Who And Where To Worship

And 

Where We Will Spend Eternity! 

The Choices!?! 

Let The Lord Jesus Christ

- The King, The Judge ... Our Savior -

Correct You 

Or

Let Satan The Damned

- The Adversary Of Your Soul ... And Your Savior -

Wreck You! 

Nobody May Make This Decision For You! 

Please Choose Wisely! 

Pray! 

Petition

And

Pursue Peace! 

Peace! 

Speak What You Would Gladly Eat!

When Something Is Running The Course Of Nature

It Means That There Is No Interference Or Intervention 

By External Sources Or Forces! 

Sooo, If The Tongue Of Man

- Which Indulges In Iniquity Aka Planned Sinning -

Sets On Fire The Course Of Nature

We May Safely Say: 

"Lord, Please Pity Us

And

Have Mercy Upon Us!" 

Beloved, 

It Is The Lord Himself Who Says That 

The Tongue Is A Defiling Implement Aka A Tool, A Weapon

And 

Is A Fire 

And

Is Set On Fire Of Hell! 

Dare To Imagine This Planet On Fire! 

Dear Ones, 

Scripture Clearly Tells Us That 

Hell's Fire Will Not Be By Hands Put Out 

But 

Will Consume Until There Is Nothing Left To Be Consumed! 

Why, Then, In The Name Of The Blessed Jesus

Would Any Of Us Not Desire To Ask Our Beloved Creator 

To Bridle Our Tongue!?! 

Words Into The Wind

Even Words Spoken Without Malicious Intent 

Can Never Be Recalled

Far Less Words Which Were Deliberately Designed 

And 

Assigned To Burn

Hurt, Cut,  Denigrate, And Destroy! 

Please, I Beseech Us All

Pay Attention To Your Heart! 

Ask Yourself If It Is In The Holy Faith

And 

Plead With The Lord Jesus To Bridle Your Tongue 

And 

Help It To Speak Good And Kind Words 

And

To Keep You Under His Wings! 

Our Own Fiery Words 

Will Boomerang On Us To Devastating Effect 

So Choose To Speak What You Would Gladly Eat! 

Peace! 

Let's Stop Doing Dirt For The Devil!

The Devil Always Has Work For Idle Hands And Minds

And 

Nothing Works Better In The Person Of The Idle 

Than To Have Them Neglect Duty

Abuse Self ... And Others

And 

Hold Others In Contempt Just Because They Can Do It! 

Beloved, 

All Who Are Beneficiaries Of The Grace Of The Living God 

Should Be Employed In The Service Of The Lord Jesus 

To The Benefit That 

Some Dear, Lost, Wandering Soul May Find Truth

And 

Embrace Living Light

Even Unto The Saving Of That Very Soul From The Second Death 

Aka Eternal Separation From Almighty God! 

When Our Minds Are Engaged

For Almighty God

Our Hands Cannot Be Employed

Doing Dirt For The Devil! 

Please Remember, Dear Ones, That 

The Books Of Record Are Open

The Recording Angel Is Writing

The Day Of Judgment Is Coming

And 

Jesus Christ The King 

Is 

Bringing His Rewards With Him 

To Give To Every Man 

According As His Own Works In His Very Flesh Have Been! 

Please, I Beseech Us All, Choose Love, Light

And 

The Leading Of The Lord Of Life 

So That You Won't Have To "Enjoy" The Burning Bath 

Prepared For The Devil, Satan ... The God-Fraud

And 

His Likewise-Fallen Angels! 

Choose To Keep Your Mind On The Lord Jesus 

And

Your Hands In His Hands 

Because 

Night Is Coming When No One May Work! 

Peace!

If A Dumb Animal Can Understand The Assignment, So Can We!

We Can Learn A Lot From A Dog! 

Beloved, 

If You Have Ever Seen One Of Those News Reports 

About An Obedient And Faithful Dog Aka Man's Best Friend 

Who We Know Has Been Abandoned, Deserted

But Who Had Been Instructed To Wait For Its Master 

And

Will Not Leave Its Post Of Duty 

Even Though Others Understand Its Situation 

And 

Are Trying To Help The Poor Dear

We, Committed Christians, Should Have 

An "Aha!" Moment! 

Dear Ones, 

If A Dumb Animal Can Understand The Assignment

So Can We! 

We Are To Wait ... Patiently ... On The Lord Jesus 

With The Full Expectancy Of The Fore-Knowledge That 

He Favors Us 

And

Will Call Unto Us

Hear Us, Help Us, Heal Us

Feed Us, Protect Us

Direct Us, Correct Us

Deliver Us, Bless Us, Teach Us 

And

In The Glad Day

Collect Us Whom He Has Already Redeemed 

From Death, The Grave 

And 

The Damnation That Is Hell

To Carry Us Home! 

King David Knew The Depth Of Despair 

And

He Experienced The Height Of The Euphoria That 

Comes When One Finally Experiences

Contentment In And With Christ 

When We Touch Him Aka Home By Faith

And

Look Forward With Unabashed Joy 

To The Fulfillment Of The Blessed Hope

The Eternity Of Peace That 

Is 

Life With Our Dear Savior 

In The Land Of Love

The Home Of The Forever Blessed! 

Got Questions!?! 

Jesus Christ Is Always The Answer: 

Keep Your Hope In Him Alive! 

Peace!

VESPERS AT THE END OF THE SABBATH: Stand Up ... For Jesus!

 

Everybody Wants To Be Known 

By Their Own Peculiar Identifiers! 

What About You!?! 

I Am Female, By Birth And By Living! 

I Am A Christian By Profession And By Practice! 

I Need Jesus Christ To Live, And Breathe, And Be Who I Am

And 

I Say My Prayers Expressing My Need To And For Him

And 

I Don't Care When People Say That 

I Am Following The Pie In The Sky

Never Ever Been Seen

So-Called Miracle-Working Supposed God Known A Human! 

Beloved, 

This Is The Day That The Eternal God Has Made: 

Rejoice And Be Glad! 

We Are Christ's Be Creation And Redemption: 

Celebrate It! 

We Are Christians 

Because 

We Believe The Preserved Word Of The Holy God: 

Exult In It! 

We Have A Mission To Tell The World About 

Christ's Free To All Salvation 

Of Which We Are Visible Beneficiaries: 

Proclaim It! 

Dear Ones, 

Bold Sinners Are Shouting About

And 

Celebrating Their Wickedness, Unashamed And Unafraid! 

They Stand Up To Be Counted 

And 

Wear Their Love On Their Chests 

For All The World To See! 

Will You Stand Up For Jesus!?! 

Will You Wear The Name And That Without Shame!?! 

I Am A King James Bible-Based Christian: 

Pleased To Meet You! 

Peace Be Upon You!  

HAPPY SABBATH: An Anchorless Ship Is Loose!

Since The Holy God, The Truth, Has Already Told Us That 

The Heart Of Man Is Desperately Wicked

Then We Should Not Be Suprised That 

Practicing Wickedness Is A Thing! 

With This In View

What We, As Working, Committed, Christians Should Be Doing

Is 

Surprising The World By Not Being A Participant With It 

In Practicing Wickedness Which Is Lawlessness

Which Is Sin

Which Is The Transgressing Of The Laws Of 

The Eternal Holy God! 

Beloved, 

Understand This: 

Doing Wickedness Is No Load For Us 

Because 

It Is Part And Parcel Of Who We Are ... Because Of Sin! 

Choosing Not To Indulge In Sin, In Wickedness

Requires Real, Personal, Effort 

And

The Constant Help Of 

Our Blessed Savior, Redeemer, And Forever Friend 

Who Died The Most Cruel Death To Break Sin's Hold Upon Us! 

Dear Ones, 

An Anchorless Ship Goes With The Tide Every Which Way

And 

Is Loose 

And 

Is Lost! 

A Ship At Anchor Is In Port 

And

Is At Its Designated Berth! 

Jesus Christ The King

Is 

The Anchor For Our Souls! 

Are You With Him!?! 

Is He In You!?! 

Let's Do Our Homework 

So That We May Pass The Master's Class! 

Do Good 

And

Good Will Attend You! 

Peace!

Nobody Owes Us A Gift Or A Gift Of Our Choosing!

We Have Surely Lost Our Way! 

In The Name Of The Lord Jesus

Why Would We, As Committed Christians, Believe That 

A Free-Will Gift Of Almighty God 

Should Be Returned To The Sender Expressing Our Dissatisfaction 

Because 

It Is Not A Brand Name

It Is Not What We Wanted

And 

It Is Not To Our Taste Since Only Money Excites Us!?! 

Beloved, 

Yes, There Are Gifts That We May Specifically Ask The Lord For 

But

Think Carefully About All The Gifts, Benefits

And 

Blessings That We Have Received Of The Lord 

Without Our Prior Knowledge And Approval!?! 

Was Calvary A Part Of Your Desire Or Aesthetic!?! 

The Cross Was Not By Gucci 

And 

The Holy Spirit Is Not Prada! 

Dear Ones, 

If We Blindly Continue 

In The Despicable, Entitled, Attitude 

Now Being Publicly Expressed

It Is Certain That We Will Not Want Or Accept 

The Now Available Gift Of Everlasting Life! 

It Is Also Certain That We Will Also Roundly Reject 

The Fruit Of The Holy Spirit 

Because 

They Do Not Come Wrapped 

In A Warhol Or Michelangelo Hand-Drawn Wrapping Paper! 

No One Owes Us A Gift

And For Sure

Nobody Owes A Gift Of Our Own Choosing! 

The Gifts Of God Should Be To Us

"Thank You, Jesus!

Bless You, Lord, For Thinking On Me!" 

The Good And Perfect Gift From God To Us 

Is 

Good And Perfect, As Is, For Us ... Always! 

Let Us Not Behave Like Idolatrous Ingrates 

Treating The Lord's Bounty Like Hog Food! 

Let Us Gladly Accept The Best Of Heaven 

Like We Know That 

We Are The Blessed On Earth! 

Peace!

Lean On The Lord Of Love Who Loves You!

 

As Practicing, Fundamentalist Aka Bible-Believing Christians

We Should Know That The One Being That 

We May With Unimpeachable Confidence Repose Our Hopes 

And 

Have Unfaltering Trust In 

Is 

Jesus Christ The Lord 

Who Will Tell Us The Truth

Show Us The Holy Way

And 

Carry Us Safely To The Glad Day! 

From His Undying Love

Do Not Stray!

Beloved, 

We Should See

And 

We Should Know That The Strong Arm Of Man 

Is 

A Poor Weapon In A War! 

We Should Know And Accept That 

In Your Time Of Plenty 

When You Are Lady Bountiful And Lord Sharer

Everybody Is Your Best Friend 

But

In Your Time Of Dearth, Of Need

It Is You Alone With Your God! 

Dear Ones, 

Let's Be Wise For Our Own Selves 

And 

Operate As The Old Time Shop-Keepers Used To Declare: 

"Trust God:

Everybody Else Pays Cash!" 

The Lord Doesn't Lie! 

Horses Don't Fly! 

Rats Eating Onions Do Cry

And 

Enduring, Trusting, Faithful, Committed Saints Of God And Christ 

Shall Arrive At The Holy City By And By! 

Put Your Confidence In The Living God 

And 

Stop Relying On Dying Man 

Who, To Save His Own Skin, Will Readily Tell A Lie 

And

The Holy God Deftly Defy! 

Please Elevate Your Expectations: 

Raise Your Gaze By Faith To The King Of Glory! 

Peace!
