♥ THE SECRET PLACE ♥ THE PRETTY PENNY ♥

¶ Consider Jamestown, May 14th, 1607. Consider the Berkeley Hundred, December 4, 1619. Consider Plymouth Rock, December 22, 1620. Consider what great persecutions, plights, trials, and tribulations they must have endured in their native England, coupled with, coming to terms with themselves, and the Will of God, through a sober, soul-searching, self-investigation of character, Crowned with the Pommpting of the Spirit, that would spur Thirty Seven Pilgrims to do such a thing as to sail off into the unknown in an unrelenting quest for FREEDOM, not to mention the Strangers that sailed with them; Soldiers, Men of Business, along with Explorers, and a few Seekers of Fortune, One Hundred and Two, altogether, of which only Fifty survived the first winter. Still, they sought FREEDOM. Freedom from the Harlot Church, freedom from a tyrannical king, freedom from ridiculous taxation, and inhuman judgements, such as Lashings, Beheadings, being Drawn and Quartered, Burned At the Stake, and locked in Dungeons. FREEDOM!!!

¶ Then consider the Great Transformation that took place on the continent of North America between the Signing of the Mayflower Compact in 1620 and the Signing of the Declaration of Independence in 1775, leading to the establishment of 13 Colonies and the taking root of the very dangerous concept of “Self-Rule”!  Hazardous? Why? Because maintaining civility, brotherly love, godliness, justice, judgment, and UNITY while keeping Tyranny and Anarchy at an Arm’s Length under a Self-Ruled Republic does, If the Truth Is To Be Told, Cost A Pretty Penny. Nonetheless, through the thick and the thin of it, for one hundred and fifty-six years, between the Signing of the Mayflower Compact and the Signing of the Declaration of Independence, Freedom Flourished.

¶ Do the citizens of the United States of America today have even the slightest notion of the price that was paid by our Forefathers and the following generations of these Patriots in the settling and establishing of the Greatest Nation on Earth?  If I might use an old colloquialism familiar to them in their day to describe the price they paid, it was, indesputably, a Pretty Penny.

¶ Now, consider the Revolutionary War, which spanned from April 19, 1775, to September 3, 1783. Can you even imagine the sparse populace of Thirteen young Colonies, who, with neither army nor navy, taking on the most powerful nation in the world and, in just a little over eight years, bringing them to their knees in a humiliating defeat?

♦ What ON EARTH was their SECRET? That can be answered with two quotes:

♥ The First, “Where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is LIBERTY.”  (2 Corinthians, 3:17)

♠ The Second, “Give me LIBERTY or give me Death.” Patrick Henry

♦♠♥ Within those two quotes are seated both the Power and the Resolve of the Founders of the Greatest Nation on Earth.

¶ What is it that gives some men and women the Resolve to Pay such a Pretty Penny for FREEDOM, while others, in contrast, drool over the ill-gotten gains of wealth and tyrannical rule, even if it means casting all honesty, moral integrity, and justice to the dogs? Even if it means having your conscience willingly seared by the Hot Iron of Diablo!

♥ My answer to that would have to be, “Where the Spirit of the Lord is,  there is Liberty.” (2 Corinthians 3:17)

♠ Now, consider these Shadowy Antagonists, who love the Darkside of the Moon, “Who, forever craving and conniving, will kill, steal, and destroy to rule and reign over others to satisfy their lusts. Wars are indeed devised and launched out of the hearts of the deranged². Is it not out of a Seared Conscience and Deranged Heart that flow the deluges of evil?  (James 4:1, Mark 7:21-23, ¹wcv&²) 

¶ Considering all of this, it is an absolute necessity that we address the Liege Lord of Darkness himself, the Black Swan, that did, In the Beginning, when cast out of the Throne Room of the Father (Ezekiel 28:13-15), was hurled like lightning through the heavens to the earth (Luke 10;18-20), only to rise again on an ill wind out of Eden to bring into the Theatres of the Ages of Men,  deception, confusion, chaos, violence, and bloodlust, along with the most filthy of perversions, greed, wars, and rumors of war all wrapped up in the Lust Of the Eyes, the Lust Of The Flesh, and The Pride Of Life, neatly packaged in Pandora’s Pretty Little Box, erroniously labeled, today, as “The Pursuit of Happiness”, as opposed to the PURSUIT OF GOD, Who just so happens to be the ONE Who has brought the Greatest Nation on Earth victoriously through all of the above to where we are today. Why?  Because, down through the Ages, there has always been a Bright Cloud of Witnesses who, through it all, Faithfully Petition Heaven, bringing their Strong Causes before the Lord… (Isaiah 41:21, 43:13)…Who, throughout their days on earth, Dwell Faithfully in the Secret Place of the Most High, even if it cost them a Pretty Penny.

¶ Now, consider the fact that the Black Swan has once again, in These Last Days, appeared in a Force rivaling, if not surpassing, that of the Days of Noah, to replace the Eagle with a Vulture that it might devour our Great Nation and leave us as nothing more than a dropped deuce by the side of the road.

¶ Then consider the Bright Cloud of Witnesses (Hebrews 12:1) who, throughout the Ages, have forever been counted by the world as nothing more than a small, ragtag, insignificant, Remnant of Curious People who walk in that strange thing called the Spirit and  Live by that silly “Pie in the Sky” notion called Faith. And, even though they have lived their lives throughout the Ages in a Present, Evil World completely overshadowed by the Black Swan, they did, and do to this day, Abide in a Realm that cannot be darkened by the Shadow of the Black Swan, where the heavens above them continually open up into the Throne Room of the Father; the SECRET PLACE of the Most High, The Portals of Heaven!  And though they Paid A Pretty Penny enduring struggles thoroughly unimaginable to todays mollycoddled multitude of derailed descendants, through many trials, tribulations, heartaches, and failures; without fail, they were always VICTORIOUS in RECEIVING the Blessings of an Open Heaven, which, in the end, could not be controlled, misconstrued, dampened, dimmed, twisted or dismantled by the Powers of the Shadow of the Black Swan, and because they interceded relentlessly in their great Labors of Love; prayer, supplication, worship, and thanksgiving, their Great Strength of Righteousness, the Lord Himself, did always rise-up and scatter their enemy. Because of the Fruit Of Their Labor today, this entire present, evil, One World Order, like it or not, has just witnessed such a VICTORY in this here United States of America! In what seemed to be but the twinkling of an eye, ALMIGHTY GOD did, for a reason, for this whole, wide, present, evil world to see, extinguish the fiery arrows of the wicked, break the longbow of the hard steel rule of tyrants, strip asunder the traitor’s cloaks of cozenage, shatter their shields, dull their swords, and confound the Devil in the Big House, that we might bring-to-task the scallywags and charlatans living high-on-the-hog off the sweat-of-the-brow of the common working man, not to mention the thugs, despots, mercenaries, and myrmidons of the Evil One who thought they had this nation dead to rights. The Lord, with the whole world watching, has just handed us the whatwithall to quell the coup and save America the Beautiful in a Time Such as This (Esther 4:14), all because the Faithful Remnant who Abides in the SECRET PLACE OF THE MOST HIGH has been relentlessly bringing their Strong Causes into the Throne Room of the Father, crying,  “Let God arise and His enemies be scattered. Let those that hate You, O Lord, vanish before us “. (Psalm 68:1, Isaiah 41:21, 43:13)   

¶ And though the Lord not only approves of but also blesses Peace Through Strength, the strength of a sound, strong, well-organized military – Religious Culture, a Bring-It-On-Attitude, Honky Tonk Patriotism, 16th Avenue Christianity, Red Neck Righteousness, Bad Boy Vengeance and even Western, Red Rider Justice will not do the job; however, that “Silly Thing” called PRAYER, you know, that “THING” everyone cries out for when the Grim Reaper comes knockin’ on their door, yes, PRAYER, when Rightly Applied, Will Get The Job Done!!! For, uncontestably so, PRAYER, when properly applied, is THE MOST POWERFUL WEAPON ON THE PLANET!!! The entire world has just witnessed this, in real-time!  Whether they acknowledge IT as the mighty moving of the Hand of God or not is neither here nor there. Why? Because IT HAPPENED! IT HAPPENED! IT HAPPENED!  Still, we are AT WAR as NEVER BEFORE. Though our Beloved Country has just received a seemingly overnight deliverance out of the damning clutches of the [sic] Obama Nation of Desolation, we are still smack-dab-in-the-midst of the Final Collision of Good and Evil!

♣ Which brings to mind a Song I wrote describing the disparaging distress, the quandary, and the gloom our One Nation Under God suffered under the many Thumbs of several of the former Dark Administrations in which so many seemed to be simply “Biden Their Time” under the Damnation of the “Obama Nation of Desolation”. The Song is about those dark, and very trying days and is entitled, “Livin’ On The Gover’ment Plantation”.

 

♠SUMMARY♠

¶ The Godless plans of the self-appointed blackhearted rulers of this world have indeed been shaken. Many of those who boasted in the taking down of America, if we are faithful, are about to see the Hand of God’s Destroying Angel cast them into a Sleepless Death of Terrors (Psalm 76:5) to awake no more to Rule this One Nation Under God. If we are FAITHFUL in Prayer, Supplication, Worship, and Thanksgiving, they will indeed awake to find themselves plundered by the very ONE they came to plunder, before the Second Coming of Jesus Christ, the Lord of All Creation. Oh, but it will indeed cost a Pretty Penny.

THE SECRET PLACE  {Part II} THE FACE OF GOD

 

Heavy winds are blowing through my Nation,

They pound against these battered hills of mine.

Yet He shelters us in Hallowed Hands,

While changes crash in thunder bands,

Shaking all that Deadfall from the Tree.

 

Need not we die in vain up in these hills,

Or fly like shadows blinded by the Light,

But stand instead, and face the wind,

Let it blow away the sin,

So we can see,

The Face of God.

 

What will you do when arrows fill the sky,

And you hear footsteps of terror in the night?

Why did you wait until so late?

Tell me, What’s that comin’ through your gate?

What you did not believe,

It’s at your door!

 

He who Dwells In The Secret of the Most High,

Shall abide neath the Shadow of His Wings.

I will say unto the Lord,

You are my Refuge from this storm,

My very Present Help

In times of trouble.

 

Need not we die in vain up in these hills,

Or fly like shadows blinded by the Light,

But stand instead, and face the wind,

Let it blow away the sin,

The we, we just might see,

The Face of God.       ©Will Callery

 

♠  “In That Day, those whose names are not found written in the Lamb’s Book of Life (Revelation 13:8, 20:15), who have bowed down before the Evil One, to willingly have their consciences seared by the Hot Iron of Diablo, who, without hesitation, have received the Mark of the Beast in their Foreheads or their Right Hands, and have, out of either pleasure or fear, taken the Number of His Name; Six Hundred Three Score and Sixty” (Revelation 13:16) …are the same Strange Children, who, in the End Times, will say to the Lord, ” ‘We have made a Covenant with Death’. ‘We have an agreement with hell itself.’  ‘We will pass through Your overflowing Scourge of Judgement unscathed’. ‘We have Cloaks of Cozenage whose warp and woof have been woven by Appollyon himself of the finest fabrics of Lies, Falsehoods, and Half-Truths known to fallen mankind²’.’ ‘We cannot be uncovered, though we are visible, we are covert².’ ‘We are Masters at using Good to do Evil and Evil to do Good².’  ‘We, not You, are the Masters of this Present, Evil World, and we are here to stay² ‘.”   These Strange Children, at the Second Coming of Jesus Christ, the King of Kings, will swallow their vanity, choke on their arrogance, chew on their tongues, and gnash their teeth for lack of defense². (Revelation 16:10, Matthew 25:30)  “They will abandon their colossal estates, cast their fortunes of silver and gold, along with all their other ill-gotten gain, to the moles, to the bats, and out into the streets, saying, ‘Wait a minute, wait a minute here, none of this belongs to me. None of this ill-gotten gain belongs to me! Some will say, ‘Why, I was just a politician reaping some of the benefits while representing the people, others will say, I was just a poor preacher being blessed by gratuities due to the office I held.².. ”  They will twist the Scriptures, saying, “Well now, a workman is worthy of his wages, you know.” (1 Timothy 5:18, ¹wcv&²)

♠  “…They will hide in the clefts of the rocks, in the heights of the ragged peaks, and, in their well-constructed bunkers in the, unbknownst to them, Shadow of the Valley of Death from the Fear of the Lord, and the Glory of His Majesty, when He arises to shake the heavens and the earth with a terrible and dreadful reckoning that will befall all of the Mephistophelian Rogues of the earth, along with their henchmen, stooges, and bootlicking sycophants².”  Truly, “The Lord is about to shake all that can be shaken.” (Isaiah 2:19,20,21 / Isaiah 28:15,16, ¹wcv&²) 

♠  “I will make the nations shake at the sound of the fall of the Mighty Cedar of Lebanon, ( i.e., The Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil²,  i.e., the Tempter himself²), that has been, throughout the ages, enticing and cabalistically indoctrinating the rejected, the fearful, the naive, and the narcisisstic, in the heinous, malevolent, and diabolical ways of the Evil One to rule the earth on his behalf². The Lord goes on to say, “When he falls², I will cast him down to hell, along with all his henchmen, stooges, and bootlicking sycophants², to be welcomed by the departed spirits of all the infamous rulers of the earth who have, down through the ages, preceded him to their final Estate, the Abyss.  (Ezekiel 31:16,17,¹wcv&²)  Yes, “This very hour², Hell is stirring itself, even rejoicing, at the anticipation of his arrival.” (Isaiah 5:14, 14:9, ¹wcv&²)

♠   The Lord is, this very hour, not only putting His “Axe into the roots”(Matthew 3:10) of the Mighty Cedar of Lebanon, i.e., the Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil, but He is also SHAKING all the Deadfall from the Tree of Life.

without a doubt,

Heavy winds are blowing through my Beloved Nation!

Oh, and how they pound against these battered hills of mine!

Yet, He shelters us in Hallowed Hands,

While changes crash in thunder bands,

Shaking all the Deadfall from the Tree

 

But we who dwell in the Secret Place of the Most High,

Who abide in the Shadow of His Wings;

We, this very day, shall say, “Lord,

“You are my Refuge from this storm.”

“My very present Help”, (My Deliverer)

“In the Time of Jacob’s Trouble”.

 

We will not die in vain up in these hills,

Or fly like shadows blinded by the Light,

No, we will stand strong and face the wind,

We will let it blow away the sin,

So we can see

The Face of God.       ©Will Callery

THE SECRET PLACE {Part III} CAST YOUR BREAD UPON THE WATER

♥

Cast Your Bread Upon The Water,

Cast your cares upon the Lord, (1 Peter 5:7)

Seek Him like you ain’t never,

Sought the Lord before. (Ecclesiastes 11:1, Matthew 7:7)

 

Cast Your Bread Upon The Water,

And He will Strike the Seven Streams, (Isaiah 11:15)

Raise up Seven Shepherds, (Mica 5:5)

Eight Warriors and a King.  ( Mica 5:5,  Isa. 11:15, Ecc.11:15)

 

Partaker of His Nature;  (2Peter 1:4)

You will wonder how It came (John 3:8)

When out of dark and stormy skies,

Blessings fall like rain. (Joel 2:23)

 

So, Cast Your Bread Upon The Water,

Cast your cares upon the Lord,

Lite out into His Great Beyond

Where you ain’t never been before.

 

Cast Your Bread Upon The Water, (Ecclesiastes 11:1)

And He will Strike the Seven Streams,

Raise up Seven Shepherds,

Eight Warriors and a King. (Mica 5:5,  Isaiah 11:15, Ecc.11:15)

 

Be Strong and of Good Courage, (Joshua 1:9)

For after many days,

What you Cast Upon The Water

Will Fall like a Summer Rain. (Joel 2:23)

 

Cast Your Bread Upon The Water, ((Ecclesiastes 11:1)

Cast your cares upon the Lord, (1Peter 5:7)

Seek Him like you ain’t never,

Sought the Lord before. (Matthew 7:7)

 

Cast Your Bread Upon The Water,  (Ecclesiastes 11:1)

And He will Strike the Seven Streams,  (Isaiah 11:15)

Raise up Seven Shepherds, (Mica 5:5)

Eight Warriors and King.  ( Mica 5:5,  Isa. 11:15) (2 Peter 1:4)

 

Partaker of His Nature;  (2Peter 1:4)

Born of  Seven Winds,

To walk in Spirit and in Truth

Through the thick and through the thin.

 

So be strong and of Good Courage,

Do not be dismayed, (Joshua 1:9)

What you Cast Upon the Water, (Ecclesiastes 11:1)

Until the Twelvth of Never

Is Forever and a Day.

{Cast Your Bread Upon the Water} by Will Callery & Ronnie “Herald” Phillips / ©William & Cynthia Pub. Co., ©7/25/25

♦ The BREAKDOWN:  “Seven” is the Biblical number of “Perfect”. “Eight”, the Biblical number of “Complete”.  “Seven Shepherds” is a Hebrew catchphrase describing the “Perfect Shepherd.” “Eight Warriors” is a Hebrew catchphrase that describes the “Complete Warrior.“  In Isaiah 11:15, “Strike the Seven Streams” is the Hebrew catchphrase for “Drying Up the Euphrates”, which simply means “Removing All Obstacles.”  The term “King” as applied in Revelation 1:6 & 5:10 states that, under Christ, we are Kings and Priests to God, and will rule and reign with Him in the Age to Come. Thus, even though we are a work in progress, we are, nonetheless, “Partakers of His Divine Nature”. (2 Peter 1:4)

The “Seven Shepherds”, the “Eight Warriors”, and the “King” are but the Distinguishing Attributes of Jesus Christ that, throughout our lives on earth, are being restored in us who Abide in the Secret Place of the Most High.  If we are truly Born Again of the Spirit, we are, day by day, being transformed by the Spirit of God, the Holy Spirit, into the Image and Likeness in which we were originally created, the Image and Likeness (Genesis 1:26) of Christ, which we forfeited in “The Fall”. Yes, we, who Dwell in the Secret Place of the Most High, are, hands-down, or should I say, hands raised, “Partakers of His Divine Nature”. (2 Peter 1:4) 

SUMMARY:

IF

We Cast our Bread Upon the Water,

And our cares upon the Lord,

Seek Him like we ain’t never

Sought the Lord before;

He will, indeed, Strike the Seven Streams

Raise Up (within us) Seven Shepherds,

Eight Warriors and a King.

 

Yes, according to the Scriptures (2 Peter 1:4), without a doubt, we, who “Dwell in the Secret Place of the Most High,” are “Partakers of His Divine Nature”.

UNFINISHED NOTES / SCRIBLINGS, SCRAMBLINGS, & RAMBLINGS

Out across the Seven Seas lie many thoughts that need to be brought into the boat.

as opposed to tight-fisted, coveteous wretches / Dead flies do make the ointment repulsive, so does the slightest of folly in a man known for his Wisdom, and Honor / A sharp axe increases the load and lessens the labor. wc / When a man is void of Wisdom, he’s better off not saying a word, for as soon as he speaks, everyone will see that he is nothing more than a fool.

 

IN GOD WE TRUST

 

While at the same time, a great rejoicing

Indeed, are not all the inhabitants of the earth, this very day, mulling about in the Valley of Decision?

*****everything that can be shaken, will be shaken – move forward on this theme. (Isa. 2:21, 11:15?, ♦13:13♦, ♦Isa. 14:9-12♦, ♠14:16♠, ♠24:18♠, – the WARNING, Eze. 26:10, *31:16*

Mt. 24

Consider the Israelites in the day of siege, partying on the rooftops  (Wilkerson, Last Call)

Then consider Gideon, David, etc. who by FAITH, FAITH, FAITH!!!  Intersession undergirds the “Civil”

Consider

 

 

 

 

                                                             PSALM LXXVI {76}

 

<<To the Chief Musician of Stringed Instruments, A PSALM, A Song of Asaph.>>

 

1.  In Juda (of old) God was renown: The Majesty of His Name was far above all Israeli nobility.

 

2  In Salem {Jerusalem} He did “Rest”, dwelling in the Mountain of His Holiness, (then known as) Zion.

 

3  It was There (for them) that He extinguished the fiery arrows of the enemy, it was There that He snapped the longbow of the steel of tyrants, it was There that he shattered the enemies shields of cozenage, and broke their swords asunder. It was There that the battle belonged to the Lord. (1 Samuel 17:47, 2 Chronicles 20:15, Deuteronomy 20:4)

 

4  Zion (the chosen residence of the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob), was (in the days of David and Solomon) more glorious than Babylon or Nineveh, Its excellence had a glory far more noble than that of its enemie’s Mountains Of Prey (kingdoms acquired by violence, murder, and robbery). (vs. !-4, ¹wcv&²)

 

¶ The Lord, Who does not change (Malachi 3:6, Hebrews 13:8), “Being the same, yesterday, today, and tomorrow”, still longs to do the same for a Nation whose Foundation honors Him. He does, in turn, honor and bless those whose Hearts are the Dwelling Place of the Spirit of God on Earth, who ABIDE in the SECRET PLACE of the Most High, even if we are but a  curious Remnant, our currency does, indeed, still read, “In God We Trust.” However, we must remain FAITHFUL and we must remain VIGILANT, then, without fail…

 

5  The prideful, arrogant, blackhearted monocrats You will spoil, gone will be their wealth and their strength as a sleepless death of terrors slowly overcomes them as a woman travailing with the pangs of birth; their so-called stouthearted warriors (who, at the drop of every hat, blaspheme the Name of God)² will be shown to be nothin more than terrified, trembling, and feeble (when Your arise to shake the heavens and the earth²). (¹wcv&²)

 

6  O Lord, at Your rebuke their horses of war will neigh no more, at Your command will the fearsome sound of the warring wheels of the diabolical be silenced. For Death does indeed reside in every Word You speak against the Mephistophelian Rogue. (¹wcv&²)

 

7  How do mere men, composed of nothing more stable than dust, plan to stand before an All-Consuming-Fire such as You, O Lord, when Your anger is kindled but a little?² (Ps. 2:12, ¹wcv&²)

 

8   When You, O Lord, cause Your judgement to thunder through the heavens on our behalf, even the earth, in quiet reverence, shall still herself. (¹wcv&²)

 

9  For you, O Lord will undeniably rise again to hush the oppressor, still the rolling stones, and save those who revere You along with the lowly of the earth who have been trodden under foot. (¹wcv&²)

 

10  The rage and malice of the most mighty persecutors, despots, and dictators shall be brought down, as always², to be nothing more than dust beneath Your feet. They will, unmistakeably², be shaken! And in the End, before descending into the abyss², they will all bow down before You and call You Lord² (for every knee will bow and every tongue confess that Jesus Christ is Lord.²) (Romans 14:11, Philippians 2:10)) (¹wcv&²)

 

11 We wholeheartedly give to You, O Lord, what is rightfully Yours (our gifts of praise, worship, and thanksgiving²) to honor You, for You are, O Lord of Hosts, to be revered, feared, and sought after beyond measure.(¹wcv&²)

 

12  Like the mighty Cedars of Lebanon², the wrath of rulers never fails to fall when You put Your axe into their roots. (vs. 5-12, ¹WCV&²

More (Unfinished) NOTES:

¶ Just as we rejoice today to see the Mighty Hand of God move on behalf of this Great Nation, so shall the whole earth rejoice when the Desire Of All Nations does appear. (Haggai 2:7, ¹wcv)

¶ Yes, our most Precious Desire of all must be Christ, our returning King, for to Christ, Our returning King, His most Precious Desire of all are the Souls of Men, for which He has paid dearly. And because He has paid so dearly, His Great Desire is, that “not one should perish” but that ALL should come to REPENTANCE and be diligently looking and longing for the appearing of the One known as the Great Desire Of The Nations to split that Eastern Sky.(2 Peter 3:9, Haggai 2:7, Matthew 24:27,¹wcv&²)

¶ My Lord and my God, how these Ancient Scriptures do brighten my eyes and warm my heart!

1 Oh, let not your hearts be troubled: Believe in God, believe also in Me.

 

2 For in My Father’s house are many mansions: If it were not so I would have told you. Because it is so², I do, indeed², go to prepare a place for you.

 

3 And because I go to prepare a place for you, I will surely come again and take you with Me², so that where I am, you may also be. {for I long for you to be with Me}².   (John 14:1-3,¹wcv&²)

 

My Lord and my God, what must I do to get through to those who consider You no more than a foolish fable?

My Lord and my God, what must I do to get through all the fairy tales, fables, and misconceptions that the religious doctrines of men have spread abroad about You to justify themselves?

My Lord and my God, what must I do to convince them of Your Great Love for humanity?

My Lord and my God, what must I do to reveal to them Your Heart of Compassion for All Mankind?

My Lord and my God, what must I do to dispel all the lies the Father of Lies has woven into the Religious Doctrines of Men to make them ashamed of the Holy Spirit?

My Lord and my God, what must I do to share with them the wonderful Gift of Repentance and the following fellowship of the Indwelling Power of the Holy Spirit? They crave a sign for this and a sign for that, yet no sign will be given to them but the Sign of the Prophet Jonah. (Matthew 12:13-42)

The Answer? PRAY!

“…For broad and beguiling² is the gate and wide and enticing² is the road that leads to destruction, and many are they that travel that old seductive turnpike in the pursuit of happiness². However, straight is the gate, and narrow is that rough old Heartworn Highway² that will take you to that SECRET PLACE, and ultimately to that City Not Made By Man², unfortunately², few find IT.” (Matthew 7:13,14, ¹wcv)

¶ Be all of this as it may, the wonderful deliverance this nation has just experienced may be nothing less than one last opportunity laid out by Divine Providence to Bring In the Sheaves; to beseech as many souls as possible to kneel at the Foot of that Old Rugged Cross, REPENT of their sins, CONFESS with a whole and burning heart that they truly need Jesus Christ as their Lord, and BESEECH Him, as never before, with all sincerity for the Baptism of His Indwelling Spirit that they may become “Partakers of His Great Grace and His Divine Nature, further enabling them to Dwell in the SECRET PLACE of the Most High and be Delivered out of the corruption of this present, evil world”. (2 Peter 1:4)

¶ For the closing of this age is certainly drawing down upon us that appointed time when the “Desire Of All Nations, shall surely appear…”

¶ It is, in the Summary of this Letter From Over Yonder, that the Lord has emphatically stated, in Chapter 7, Verses 6 through 9, in the Book of Haggai, that…

6  Once more, in a very little while, (I will shake not only the earth)², I will shake the heavens and the earth, the seas and the dry land;  I will remove everything (and everyone²) that can be shaken so that only what cannot be shaken shall remain, for I, the DESIRE OF ALL NATIONS, will have a Kingdom that cannot be moved. (Hebrews 12:26, 27)

 

7  I will shake (the desires)² of all the nations until the wicked hide themselves in the shadows and clefts of the rocks and the righteous rejoice². It is then that I, Jesus Christ², the DESIRE OF ALL NATIONS shall appear: And when I come, not only will fill I the earth with My Glory, I will fill the latter Temple, {the hearts of men}², with a Glory they have never known the likes of. The Glory of the Former will, in no way, compare to the Glory of the Latter (v.9), for the hearts of men will forever be the Temple of My Holy Spirit. (1 Corinthians 6:19, ¹wcv&²) 

 

8  The silver, the gold, and the all precious stones are Mine², I AM the Lord of Hosts, I AM the Desire Of All Nations².

 

9  O, how the Glory of this latter house (the hearts of men) shall be far greater than the gold, the silver, and the precious stones of the former Temple, for I AM the Lord of the Armies of Heaven: And in this place I will establish Peace on Earth and Goodwill Towards Men. (Luke 2:14) (vs. 6-9,¹wcv&²)

So, it is to the heathern, the harlot, the fencerider and the backslider, the great pretender and the sly offender, from the orphan to those that live in high towers; to the deceiver, believer, and the old inbetweener, all of which I myself have been at one time or another, well, except for the Harlot –  that I do employ, not out of a self-righteous, judgemental spirit, but out of a been-there-and-done-that spirit of loving concern, to the sinner and the saint, I do with all sincerity say, “Come into the SECRET PLACE of the Most High, for you will truly receive a welcome beyond your greatest expectations”.

Come out from among them while you’re able,  (2 Corinthians 6:17,18)

Do not mingle with them, they are dead,

And do not go a whorin’ with Delilah,

She’ll cut you locks and hang them on her bed.   

 

You’ll find yourself shackled, chained, and blind      (Judges 16:)

On the alter in Satan’s banquet hall,

Crying to the God of All Creation

For the strength to get back where you belong.

He rose up on and ill wind out of Eden,

His precious stones diffusing every ray.

Rising like a Phoenix from the ashes,

Bringing us to where we are today

 

He’s been around since long before the Fall

In the Mountain of God’s Fiery Stones.

Deceiver of Mankind in The Garden,

Don’t you dare trust him with your soul.

 

Black Swan Rising 

Out of the ashes of The Fall,

The Shadow of the Black Swan,

That’s what’s troubling us all.

Black Swan Rising

High above the circle of the earth,

The Shadow of the Black Swan,

That’s the Shadow of the Curse.

 

She (America) sank into the night, it was Titanic,

Dividing soul and spirit long ago.

Stealing thru the shadows like a phantom,

Yearning for a fix, she sold her soul.

 

Taken by a flood of fancy fables,

Now she dances with the satyrs, like Jezebel,

While the blood of her children cry for vengeance,

Lord, send these Godless devils straight to hell.

 

Black Swan Rising….

 

Come out from among them while you’re able.

Do not mingle with them, they are dead,

And do not go a whorin’ with Delilah,

She’ll cut your locks and hang them on her bed.

 

You’ll find yourself shackled, chained, and blind

On the alter in Satan’s Banquet Hall

Crying to the God of All Creation

For the Strength to get back where you belong.           {©Black Swan Rising / ©Will Callery, ©BMI 2024}
