From Child to Bride

I heard with my heart as the father explained to the little girl named Rebecca (the name of the bride of Messiah) why there must be the martyr for Christ. Like Messiah, and in Messiah, there is the cost of the death to self, which frees the soul and the world, from the desperate, crushing separation from the life of God. The glory of God is what is sought, and is the only just compensation of those who give their all to Him! The same love, which is in Messiah, is also in those who chose HIM over their own lives. It is the mechanism by which His life and authority are spread, and of which the suicide bomber of the adversary is only a hollow and ultimately fatal mimicry.

The glory of God, which conquers by surrender to Him, is released, through the imitation and reflection of His all giving nature. There can be no fear when there is only Him there, for He is enough! He is far more than enough, for He is an infinity of tender regard and consuming beauty of passion, a passion FOR beauty, His own kind of incandescence, and the loveliness of His own!

These are the words of persuasion by which He calls you into the wilderness. The transforming power of His love insists that you follow the path He has blazed into the dry desert, where He will meet with you as you have so desired.

Hosea 2:13-15

13 And I will punish her for the days of the Baals
when she burned incense to them,
put on her rings and jewelry,
and went after her lovers,
but forgot Me.
This is the Lord’s declaration.

Israel’s Adultery Forgiven

14 Therefore, I am going to persuade her,
lead her to the wilderness,
and speak tenderly to her.[a]
15 There I will give her vineyards back to her
and make the Valley of Achor[b]
into a gateway of hope.
There she will respond as she did
in the days of her youth,
as in the day she came out of the land of Egypt.

 Isaiah 43:19

Look, I am about to do something new; even now it is coming. Do you not see it? Indeed, I will make a way in the wilderness, rivers in the desert.

Isaiah 51:3

For the Lord will comfort Zion; He will comfort all her waste places, and He will make her wilderness like Eden, and her desert like the garden of the Lord. Joy and gladness will be found in her, thanksgiving and melodious song.

The Calling of My Sister

The Great Lord, our Messiah and King, our only possible Savior, has a message for His redeemed ones, the ones brought back from the nations! There is a sign to watch for as as instructed, that will be the beginning of the awakening of the elect of The Lord! The fullness of time of the brothers and watchmen of the shepherd King has arrived! Stand up valiantly, oh queen of the nations, and teach them the ways of The Lord! Only she who has given Him her all is worthy of the King! She is given the kingdom "for such a time as this!"

Speak out against the figure who is labeled the Messiah, but who is just a man! This peace he has declared is the poison he would use to anesthetize you into complacency and bind you to his evil! No mere man can be your messiah. Your Deliverer will return like the lightening, to fill up the sky with His glory!

His words of instruction to you are in Matthew 24. The questions of His disciples form an outline for the rest of the chapter. The other gospels omit a question that is unique to Matthew, but in three accounts, they want to know when the temple will be destroyed. Then Messiah is asked specifically, in the second question, "what would be the sign of your coming and of the end of the age?" He answers the the prior question with a group of signs happening during the times of the Gentiles, which build to a crescendo before His final coming on the clouds with every eye as witness!

Then He starts with the next question (the sign of His coming) and says:  Matt 24:39 "So this is the way the coming of the Son of Man will be: 40 Then two men will be in the field: one will be taken and one left. 41 Two women will be grinding at the mill: one will be taken and one left." When you have seen this sign, then be sure to follow his advice most forcefully, the part where you do not follow any earthly savior! Matt 24:23 “If anyone tells you then, ‘Look, here is the Messiah!’ or, ‘Over here!’ do not believe it! 24 False messiahs[k] and false prophets will arise and perform great signs and wonders to lead astray, if possible, even the elect. 25 Take note: I have told you in advance. 26 So if they tell you, ‘Look, He’s in the wilderness!’ don’t go out; ‘Look, He’s in the inner rooms!’ do not believe it. 27 For as the lightning comes from the east and flashes as far as the west, so will be the coming of the Son of Man. 28 Wherever the carcass is, there the vultures[l] will gather.
