⁶ For thus saith the LORD of Hosts; 

Yet once, it is a little while, 

and I+  will shake 

the heavens, and the earth, 

and the sea, and the dry land;

⁷ And I+  will shake all nations,
 and

 The DESIRE+ of all nations

 shall come: 

and I+  will fill this house 
with glory, 

saith the LORD of Hosts.

⁸ The silver is mine, and the gold is mine, 

saith the LORD of Hosts.

⁹ The Glory of this latter house 

shall be greater 

than of the former, 

saith the LORD of Hosts: 

and in this place will
I+
  give peace,

saith the LORD of Hosts.

Meditation ~ ~ ~

O LORD GOD, YHWH ADONAI,  King+ of the Heavenly Hosts, Captain+of the Divine Armies of Angelic Beings, show Thyself+ once again! 

And, this time , O LORD, let it be known to the peoples of every kindred, tongue, people, and nation

exactly  WHO+ THOU+ art.

As THOU+ didst enter  into Thine+ Incarnation in order to die to set men free from satan's grip...

we long for THEE+ to re-enter planet earth with Thy+ Glorified Body to set aright the kingdoms of this world. 

Then, the kingdoms of this world is become the Kingdoms of Our LORD, and of HIS CHRIST!

And HE+ shall reign for ever and ever!

 HalleluJAH !

Come, O Come,

 and fill this Temple!

Come, O Come,

O DESIRE+ of all nations, 

and fill this Temple! 

Come, O Come,

EMMANUEL+

and ransom captive earth,

still bound by Hell.

Advent Meditation #7

What can I give HIM+, 

poor as I am ? 

If I were a shepherd, 

I would give HIM+ a lamb. 

~

But rich or poor, 

I will do my part

Because HE+ loves me.... 

I will give HIM+ my heart. 

~ ~ ~ Poem by Christina Rossetti,
adapted by Sr. Judith Hannah  + + +

Meditation ~ ~ ~

O Victorious SAVIOR !  O THOU+ Who+ looketh upon our lives, knowing the end from the beginning, help us to focus our hearts upon THEE+.  

Help us to realize how very poor we are and that we are in need of everything... everything to make us acceptable unto GOD. 

 We thank THEE+ for cleansing us by Thy+ Blood.+  We bless THEE+ for illuminating us with Thy+ HOLY SPIRIT. We praise THEE+ for not letting us go.

Thanks be to THEE+ and to Our Heavenly FATHER for making a way for us to go through this sin-sick world and  come safely HOME to THEE+.  

Help us to live as though we know  that  JESUS CHRIST our LORD didn't come here to lose ! Not even one hair on our heads did HE+ lose!  

Glory to The FATHER, 

to The SON+, and 

to The BLESSED 

HOLY SPIRIT.

Revelation 12

Courtesy of BibleGateway.com

And there appeared a great wonder in heaven; a woman clothed with the sun, and the moon under her feet, and upon her head a crown of twelve stars: 

And she being with CHILD+ cried, travailing in birth, and pained to be delivered.

And there appeared another wonder in heaven; and behold a great red dragon, having seven heads and ten horns, and seven crowns upon his heads. 

And his tail drew the third part of the stars of heaven, and did cast them to the earth: and the dragon stood before the woman which was ready to be delivered, for to devour her CHILD+ as soon as (it ) HE+ was born.

And she brought forth a MAN CHILD+, WHO+ was to rule all nations with a rod of iron: and her CHILD+ was caught up unto GOD, and to HIS throne. 

~  ~  ~

And there was war in heaven: Michael and his angels fought against the dragon; and the dragon fought and his angels, and prevailed not; neither was their place found any more in heaven.

And the great dragon was cast out, that old serpent, called the devil, and satan, which deceiveth the whole world: he was cast out into the earth, and his angels were cast out with him.

And I heard a loud voice saying in heaven, Now is come salvation, and strength, and the kingdom of our GOD, and the power of HIS CHRIST: for the accuser of our brethren is cast down, which accused them before our GOD day and night. 

~  ~  ~

And they overcame him  

• by the BLOOD+ of the LAMB+,  
• and by the Word+ of their testimony; 
•  and, they loved not their lives unto the death.

Therefore rejoice, ye heavens, and ye that dwell in them. Woe to the inhabiters of the earth and of the sea! for the devil is come down unto you, having great wrath, because he knoweth that he hath but a short time.

And when the dragon saw that he was cast unto the earth, he persecuted the woman which brought forth the MAN CHILD+.

And the dragon was wroth with the woman, and went to make war with the remnant of her seed, which 

• keep the commandments of GOD, and 
• have the testimony of JESUS CHRIST.

Meditation ~ ~ ~ 

O THOU+ Who+ came to rule all nations with Thy+ Rod of Iron, strengthen my feeble knees. 

Help me to kneel to THEE+ alone, in this world which demands my allegiance to promote its deceptions. 

Help me to bend the knee only to THEE+ when tempted to discount Thy+ Word and yield my thoughts to the values and philosophies of this world.  

O LAMB+ Who+ came to rule with Thy+ Rod of Iron, strengthen my knees to hold firm without fear... when faced with the worries engendered by the fallen lying angels which appear to control this world ... for a short space.

Rule me, O LAMB+, with Thy+ Rod and Staff which comforts, not with that terrifying Rod of Iron.

O LAMB+ of GOD Who+ came to take away the sin of the world, have mercy upon me.

LORD JESUS CHRIST, LAMB+ of GOD, bearer of my sins, have mercy upon me. 

LORD JESUS CHRIST, LAMB+ of GOD, my SAVIOR+ ,  grant me Thy+ peace.

Amen

Jude 

verses 14,15

And Enoch also, the seventh from Adam, prophesied of these, saying, 

Behold, 

the LORD cometh 

with ten thousands of His+ saints,

To... 

•  execute judgment upon all, 

and to... 

• convince all that are ungodly among them 

of... 

•  all their ungodly deeds 

> > >    which they have ungodly committed,

and of... 

• all their hard speeches 

>  >  >   which ungodly sinners have spoken 

against HIM+.

Revelation 19  
Let us be glad and rejoice, 
and give honour to HIM+: 
for the marriage of the LAMB+ is come, 
and His+ wife hath made herself ready.

 And to her was granted 
that she should be arrayed 
in fine linen, 
clean and white: 
 for the fine linen is 
the righteousness of saints.

And HE+ was clothed 
with a vesture dipped in blood: 
and His+ Name is called 
The Word+ of God.

And the armies which were in Heaven 
followed HIM+ upon white horses, 
clothed in fine linen, 
white and clean.

Behold, 

the LORD cometh 

with ten thousands of His+ saints...

Revelation 6


And when he had opened the fifth seal, 
I saw under the altar 
the souls of them that were slain 
for the Word of God, 
and for the testimony which they held:

And they cried with a loud voice, saying, 
How long, O LORD, Holy and True, 
dost thou not judge and avenge our blood 
on them that dwell on the earth?


And white robes were given 
unto every one of them; 
and it was said unto them, 
that they should rest yet for a little season, 
until their fellowservants also and their brethren, 
that should be killed as they were, 
should be fulfilled.

Behold, 

the LORD cometh 

with ten thousands of His+ saints...

Psalm 149: 5-10

Let the saints be joyful  in glory:
let them sing aloud upon their beds.

Let the high praises of God 
be in their mouth, 
and a two-edged sword in their hand;

To execute... 

•  vengeance upon the heathen, and 
• punishments upon the people;

To bind... 

• their kings with chains, and 
• their nobles with fetters of iron;

To execute.... 

• upon them the judgment written: 
• 
  

this honour have 
all His+ saints.

Praise ye the LORD ! 

Behold, 

the LORD cometh 

with ten thousands of His+ saints...

O LORD GOD Who+ became Incarnate, taking upon THYSELF+ our nature and our form .... HELP US  to live in humility Incarnate, that we might take on THY+ nature and form, for all Eternity. 

Help us to live in such meekness Incarnate here on earth, that we might be granted rest in beds in GLORY, and be clothed in the Righteousness of the saints in Heaven, in garments of white linen, fair and clean.

We thank THEE+ , Heavenly KING+, for Thy+ First Advent, becoming Incarnate to deliver the people from sin, and for Thy+ Second Advent, to deliver the world from satan's hand... whose time is but short. 

CHRIST the KING+ ever reigns on High,

O Come, Let us adore HIM+ !

ADVENT MEDITATION #4... HE+ Didn't Come Here to Lose !

The Vision 

Given in the Year of Our LORD , 10.11.2013

In a quick glimpse, a snap-shot, 

I saw Our LORD JESUS CHRIST 

beginning to mount a white horse.

With an alert , "at the ready" smile, 

HE+ glanced over to see if I were taking good note. 

His+ face was full of Life  

... and determination.
.
.
. 

And I saw Heaven opened, and behold 

A WHITE HORSE;


and HE+ that sat upon him 

was called FAITHFUL+ and TRUE+, 

and in righteousness 

HE+ doth judge

and 

make war.
Revelation 19:11
.
.

Revelation 14, verses 14, 15, 16

¹⁴ And I looked, and behold a white cloud, and upon the cloud one sat like unto the SON+ of MAN, having on HIS+ head a golden crown, and in HIS+ hand a sharp sickle.

¹⁵ And another angel came out of the temple, crying with a loud voice to HIM+ that sat on the cloud, 

Thrust in THY+ sickle, 

and reap:

for the time is come 

for THEE+ to reap;

for the harvest 

of the earth is ripe.

¹⁶ And HE+ that sat on the cloud thrust in HIS+ sickle on the earth; and the earth was reaped.

~  ~  ~

O, THOU+ unto Whom+ is given ALL AUTHORITY in Heaven and in Earth, JESUS CHRIST our LORD.... we pray this day for all the wayward ones, the ones living in sin, upon whom the Judgment and Wrath of GOD is about to fall !

We ask for conviction of sin, conviction of judgment, conviction of mercy, and the conviction of Thy+ love to fall upon the wayward ones we know, the rebellious ones among us, and the unregenerated ones who know not THEE+.

And, we ask for Thy+ conviction upon our own souls when our lives fail to bring that conviction upon all we meet... that conviction that falls by the power of the HOLY SPIRIT. 

Help us, O SAVIOR, to so live for THEE+ that others may sense Thy+ Presence powerfully.... even before  we open our mouths.

And when we do speak, let our every word reflect THEE+, O SAVIOR born Incarnate, in Spirit and in Truth. 

In the Name of Our LORD and SAVIOR JESUS CHRIST we pray... 

Amen.   

ADVENT Meditation # 3.... HE+ Didn't Come Here to Lose...

"You cannot kill ME+. "

Therefore doth My+ FATHER love ME+ 

because I +  lay down My+ Life 

that I+  may take it again. 

No man taketh it from ME+, 

but I+  lay it down of Myself+. 

I +   have power to lay it down, 

and I+  have power to take it again. 

This commandment have I+  received 

of  My+ FATHER.

Words of JESUS, recorded in John 10: 17, 18

 " YOU  cannot kill ME,+ "  

JESUS said.

No human being and no demonic being from the unseen realms can ...OR COULD... kill JESUS, 
HE+ informed the world.

"You CANNOT kill ME+, " 

JESUS said. 

No human being and no demonic being from the unseen realms even has ... OR HAD...  power or authority of any kind whatsoever, in this realm or in the Heavenlies, 

to do ANYTHING to JESUS.  

Neither humans nor satan himself nor his demons are even ABLE to do anything to JESUS . 

"You cannot KILL  ME+,"

JESUS said.

No human being nor satan nor his demons can... 

...OR ever COULD , in all of Eternity... 
kill The LORD 

UNLESS HE+ allowed it to happen ! 

( And, for the JOY that was set before HIM+, 
HE+ did allow them to do so. 
But, Bless GOD, none of His+ enemies 
knew what the result was going to be! )

"You cannot kill ME+, "

JESUS said. 

Why do the heathen rage, and the people imagine a vain thing?

The kings of the earth set themselves, and the rulers take counsel together, against the Lord, and against his anointed, saying, Let us break their bands asunder, and cast away their cords from us.

HE that sitteth in the Heavens shall LAUGH !

The LORD shall have them in derision !

Then shall HE speak unto them in His ANGER, and TERRIFY them in His WRATH !

( Literal Hebrew from Jay P. Green's Interlinear ) 
Psalm 2 Courtesy of BibleGateway.com.

O HOLY FATHER, WHO art in Heaven... 

We lift up our hearts in praise to THEE for giving us Thy beloved SON+ Who+ became our form and our nature that we might become Thy children. 

We thank THEE for sending HIM+ Incarnate into the world... HE+ Who+ cannot be killed or see death again.  We thank THEE for giving all power and authority over life and death unto Thy SON+ so that we might live and never die. 

Glory be to GOD ON HIGH, 

and on earth, 

peace, goodwill towards men. 

Amen
