‘Strangled Times’ (Pacific Ocean Visions Continue)

A rapture is not when bodies mysteriously leave the earth as the false preachers have you believe. A rapture is when a large number of SOULS leave the earth.

 Strangled Times 
  
 a plateau has hit
 sending all into
 comfort's well-endowed sit
 a place in fit
 where no banging of fists
 lives
 just the comfort of it
  
 where money-fires are it
 where ego-seekers sip
 where pride gets its grip
  
 it's an evened-out trip
 one that'll soon
 take its dip
 ‒an allowed-incoming flip
  
 it's the plan of it
 the way of it
 the confusion of it
 a prepared dip
 for the coming
 man-driven apocalypse
 not zombies from death's grip
 as man sees it
 but death
 as in the pit of it
  
 they are zombies‒
 the walking dead
 an emptiness of spirit
 destroying
 all the good
 of it
  
 rape and pillage
 leaving ugly‒
 in the wake of it
  
 God's† hand spewing it
 for His† anger of it
  
 you won't escape‒
 His† wrathing fit
 He† asked for the praying
 of it
 you laughed at it
 pledging your idolization
 to it
 so He's† done with it
 He's† hardened
 in His† spirit
  
 it will take generations
 one, two or three
 for the complete of it
  
 then He† will hide in it
 man will have to sift
 through it
 without…out loud
 questioning it
  
 unveiling
 a deep-hidden secret
 in order
 to save it
   

Note: Again I am directed to the page February 9, 2020: Rough Waters…Millions Will Die. The cross. In almost every set of photographs, I’m sent a cross somewhere. As you can see, the cross is very pronounced.

(March 12, 2021)―I tuned in to Amazon’s Music for the awards and what songs had won. Sad. The words in some of those songs, messages…telling us all where we are headed. I know where we are headed. On August 25, 2019, I will remind you over and over, God said, ‘The Button’s Been Pushed.’ There is no…NO…turning back. Everything He has shown me in the visions, the photographs, and the writings will happen. The visions: the first parts have happened. You just don’t know God in order to understand what He sends. It’s time to learn.

Pacific Ocean Visions Continue: In I Am but Lowliness, I talk about the Rough Water Dream and Buildings Crashing Vision and how it connects to the page titled February 9, 2020: Rough Waters…Millions Will Die. Then night before last I had a serious of dreams but only one part I remember clearly: The ocean raging and when He (God) said, ‘Pacific’. Most of the visions happen on the Pacific Ocean. There is something really big that is coming and it will affect the Pacific Ocean in a major way. I can’t tell you what. I just tell you what I’m shown and told. But they all add up to a huge change.

‘Rage of Fires’

‘Rages of Fires’ and the Avenging Angel…seems no an accident that these two were paired together.

Rage of Fires
 
you peddle your indifference
sing your free-standing cadence
force everyone else's hand‒
following your fake, selfish
ordinance
flash around your hollywood-money
arrogance
screaming
you're better than the rest
 
spreading your self-directed
hindrance
putting it in faces
not caring‒
your true ignorance
 
you've been vulnerable
never in full resistance
to God's† upper hand
deliverance
 
still you rage on
in stupid defiance
trying to convince the world
paper straws
clothes-displaying vaginas
your sexual indifference
'oh my! be who you are inside'
overriding God's† side
raping kids is just a disease
‒everyone...with you
must side
'come on y'all...lightin' up
stop judging...live it up'
 
those living in richly
nonattendance
spraying fur coats
with paint
inserting organic
to what's already grown
in the ground
stripping God† from schools
and buildings
yelling...screaming
'you must follow our dominance'
 
through earthquakes, crime, fires
 
still you ignore the true disturbance
the One† responsible
for your existence
the One† giving you
chance after chance
 
so you move to other states
pushing your constant
self-indulgence
creating selfish turbulence
 
so God† says:
'My! I'll indulge prominence
beat down your prevalence'
 
poof! up in smoke!
 
warning's insistence
awaken‒
add your concurrence
not over-the-top‒
lost in intense
where more consequence
will hail to the offense
where ignorant over-indulgence
sinks to nonsense
 
go out help the poor
go out help the widows
go out help the fatherless
go out help the homeless
go out help the broken,
the lame, the ill
 
go out you sinner!
take your greed
and convert it
to intelligence
where true wisdom
becomes common sense
changing the events
in sequence
 
an awakened silence
 
'the LORD† is gracious
for I followed His† cadence
instead of human ignorance'

Note: The photograph was taken November 11, 2019: The Avenging Angel. 11/11! No surprise but it was a surprise. During the walk and me taking these photographs, I didn’t realize it was 11/11! The arrow in the sky cannot be disputed! What it and the green orb, in most of the frames, are focusing on become a very scary angel. David called her the Avenging Angel!

15:00:47

(September 13)―The page number that this prayer is on is 1311. In my Bible, which is divided into 365 readings, this day is October 11.

Confessional PrayerAnd the LevitesJeshua, Kadmiel, Bani, Hashabneiah, Sherebiah, Hodiah, Shebaniah and Pethahiah―said: ‘Stand up and praise the Lord your God, who is from everlasting to everlasting. Blessed be your glorious name, and may it be exalted above all blessing and praise. You alone are the Lord. You made the heavens, even the highest heavens, and all their starry host, the earth and all that is on it, the seas and all that is in them. You gave life to everything, and the multitudes of heaven worship You. You are the Lord God, who chose Abram and brought him out of Ur of the Chaldeans and named him Abraham. You found his heart faithful to You, and You made a covenant with him to give to his descendants the land of the Canaanites, Hittites, Amorites, Perizzites, Jebusites and Girgashites. You have kept Your promise because You are righteous.

You saw the suffering of our forefathers in Egypt; You heard their cry at the Red Sea. You sent miraculous signs and wonders against Pharaoh, against all his officials and all the people of his land, for You knew how arrogantly the Egyptians treated them. You made a name for Yourself, which remains to this day. You divided the sea before them, so that they passed through it on dry ground, but You hurled their pursuers into the depths, like a stone into mighty waters. By day You led them with a pillar of cloud, and by night with a pillar of fire to give them light on the way they were to take.’—Nehemiah 9:5-12

‘On the Ledge’

The Lion’s Den. What is it? It is a symbol as everything that God does in the Bible, before, during and after Jesus’ life. The Lion’s Den…God will bring us to strife to test us but if we trust in Him, He will bring us out.

On the Ledge
 
Lord†, I'm standing here
Your† voice to hear
I'm doing this‒
so please control this fear
not of people or anything
of this world
but being alone, losing time
missing those of my own
for doing this work‒
I have nothing to give them
‒not even a home
 
my heavenly Father†
I know what You† said
You're† with me
and for me to not be afraid
I'm trusting
each and every day
 
and You† know what I'll say
anyway
going way deep inside here
looking at my deepest fears:
 
it's argument, strife
having to stand up...fight
 
it's pushing through
giving hard love
and trying to not be the fool
but knowing You†
and what You† need
us to do
 
it's having to break a heart
but keeping from
tearing it apart
so each piece can sort
‒healing can pullout
the deepest darts
 
it's being yelled at, cussed at
cursed out by someone I love
but not giving up
taking strength from above
‒using that as my glove
instead of pushes and shoves
 
it's saying truth
going against all traditions
pulling out secret formations
using every known Jesus† tool
to help heal and sooth
even if the one needing healing
is horrible and cruel
lost in the addiction
of traditions
that were never true
 
Lord†, these are my fears
these cause all my tears
 
and even through
these I fear
I'll get pass the tears
and even if I'm made
to feel queer
I'll do them anyway
‒help pave the way
their souls
not to be sheered
but instead cheered
as they enter
Your† heavenly gates
 
‒that is worth all the tape
all the anger and hate
all the moments in fake
 
that walk
that gate
 
changing a fate
living Jesus'† way
so they‒
the unhealed
are not late
for that perfect date

Note: The photographs were taken November 9, 2019: Certainty of Visions. The the odd green next to the rocks is God’s energy. I can’t help if you can’t understand. I’m telling you what David points out to me. All of these photographs came after the visions in order for the Lord to drive in His point. I would listen if I were you. Don’t shoot me. I’m the messenger. And the message was delivered.

11.09.2019.13.35.35

(August 19)―I was led to Daniel in the Lion’s Den after I wrote this. Amazing! If we go through hard and trust in the Lord, He will rescue us unharmed. I covered the story of Daniel in the Lion’s Den in Disbursement of Truth and The Lion’s Den.

The Lion’s Den. What is it? It is a symbol as everything that God does in the Bible, before, during and after Jesus’ life. The Lion’s Den…God will bring us to strife to test us but if we trust in Him, He will bring us out. There’s so many ways that God will do this and we just have to be prepared for them because they are going to come if we want them or not. This isn’t our show, this belongs to God and He will test you to see what you are made of.

‘A Desired Kingship’ and ‘Looking for Guidance’

God knows better. He knows what our request will bring us, but His love overpowers this and He gives in, gives us what we ask for. We have to learn the lessons on our own because we won’t listen to logic.

A Desired Kingship
 
from the time of saul
the chosen desired
to call
a man...a human
king
 
they already had one
‒since time begun
above Him†
they needed none
 
but they begged
so He† give it to them‒
what their hearts desired
‒setting His† own heart
on fire
 
their faith declared
then was blared
things seeps out of air
‒roles became out of heirs
trickery...this is where
humans began‒
living on dares
 
at kings‒
they needed to stare
‒the unseen
they couldn't even compare
to understand‒
was rare
 
slowly
went away the care
 
God† knew‒
the One† of great value
miracles and all
a demand from hearts‒
a leader other than He†
a labeling of king
‒truly not knowing
the one true King†
 
it was a thought
coming from hearts
words under tongue
encircling
that which to be hung
 
the spirit in the flesh‒
many couldn't even guess
some called Him† a guest
others‒
in a simple prophet's attire‒
He† would rest
 
it was in the few
that got history's view
 
they recognized the value‒
what He† was born
to do
He† saw right through
then He† said it
He† never denied it
for 'it' was His† purpose
 
those of God†‒
knew the truth
knew His† true value
not of king
‒the Son† of a King†
the prince
the highest of priests
the judge of human life
as the head‒
out of sight
 
the brother of the sinful
the way of the kingdom
the sacrificial lamb
who came
to light the eternal lamp
to the kingdom
of
the true King†

Note: Photograph taken November 9, 2019: Certainty of Visions reveals here the crack in the earth that’s coming. You don’t really have to believe it. It’s going to happen all the same. God’s talked about this through many prophets. To further tell you the extensiveness of this through me and then to be able to reveal in photographs what He showed me in visions is remarkable. Of course, the visions were intense! He’s not asking you to prepare your house. He’s telling you to prepare your heart. You don’t have a choice if you live or die through this, but you do have a choice if you live or die. I can bet you don’t understand that sentence at all. Live in the Bible means you go to heaven. Die in the Bible means you go to the pit. What will be your choice? Which gate are you going to walk through? The choice is off the table for almost a million people in just seven months. That number will greatly increase by the end of the year. Eternity is a very long time to suffer in the pit, but it will be your choice if that’s what you want and how you live this life.

11.09.2019.13.35.22

(August 5)—Kingship Avoided—[Mark] Immediately Jesus made His disciples get into the boat and go on ahead of Him to Bethsaida, while He dismissed the crowd. [John] Jesus, knowing that they intended to come and make Him king by force, withdrew again to a mountain by Himself.—Matthew 14:22,23a; Mark 6:45,46; John 6:15-17a

In prayer sessions, sometimes I’m overwhelmed with this emotion that is really hard to explain. It’s joy. It’s sadness. And both those mixed up with something more. Then I hear, ‘You love My Son.’ It isn’t a question. It’s more of an acknowledgement of my heart. I always say, ‘Yes.’ Then He says, ‘As it should be.’

There is no price to be put on Jesus. In the lessons that He teaches me, some of it is hard to take because it is not what we are taught by mainly the Catholic church, and it seems that all the other churches follow suit. Just the thought of a man posing as the only person on earth beneath God that we must listen to…the Pope. Who said? Who gave this organization the authority to tell us, the people of God, that we HAVE to listen to this human? Who gave this organization the power to say they kill in the name of God innocent people as Islam does? Who says?

‘The Puzzle’s End’

When God wants you, He will shake your world up! And He will keep shaking you until you get the memo, ‘Hey dude, I’m calling you, answer the phone!’ It steadily rings until you DO pick it up!

  The Puzzle's End
 
so young
so in between
–living and running
fast-paced scenes
 
knowing this
knowing that
putting it all together
in fact
not knowing
it's all a trap
–in will come
the collapse
in physical or in mind–
the hands will clap
they'll stand a little
for that
–then you'll see
only their backs
obvious or not
it'll happen...count of that
 
you'll question
all in your habitat–
where you once felt
the autocrat
–sometimes the bureaucrat
–even the true diplomat
whatever format
–your knowledge–
the smart-ass cat
was all that
 
then you fell to rat
on the ground...splat
or against a wall...splash
 
all you knew crashed
leaving you lost
in a unquestionable gasp
 
it's when you see the vast
–after that sudden ask
–like it was a forced task
but it happened so fast
yet so slow in contrast
 
it's when you recognize
this upper-class act
this thing beyond
just a simple glass
it seems‒
a I-don't-want-to-let-go mask
but it's not at all...a mask
it's an all-around broadcast
–you know, but you don't
you think you're in trespass
but you're not an outcast
so how can it be that
‒it's a different hourglass
catching you in pizzazz
 
it's when you understand
the acrobat
simply doesn't swing
but glides with hands clasped
around their back
 
it's knowing your mind
was kidnapped
but now it's back
–you no longer live
in a man-driven syntax
no need for a polygraph
 
you now hear the phonograph
although...it's not a phonograph
you just know the path
like knowing truth about this
and that
like spacecrafts, even witchcraft
it's now above all that
 
it's knowing–
you can know that
then not know that
it's knowing–
you can see that
or not see that
it's knowing–
you can hear that
or not hear that
 
it's just depends on
where you're at
–your journey's path
 
it's understanding–
not being mad
accepting–
knowing who can change
all that
‒with a wind's simple laugh
 
that's when you've crossed
the graph
from ignorance in testing
to knowledge in wisdom
 
there's a path
–you will enact
you will react–
adhere to the telegraph:
 
stay on the raft
however hard the path
it won't last
if you fall off–
get back on the raft
it will pass
deal with the riffraff
–the wiretap
question...ask
it will all pass
don't get off the raft
whatever sass–
stay on the raft!

(February 24)—This was written on January 3 of this year, my 51st Birthday! I spent it alone. In fact, against my will, but I understand it now, I’m working on spending an entire year by myself! Something I’ve been wanting to do for a very long time. No more codependency! God is awesome! No more need for a man in my life. I don’t even need my family. Just me. And this awesome experience with the spiritual world. And birds! Twice a day, they come to the trees outside my apartment and hold meetings! They commence all at once and then they adjourn ALL at once! It’s really interesting and beautiful!

‘Mechanical’s Return’

The worse mark on the heart: Malicious intent: refers to the intent, without just cause or reason, to commit a wrongful act that will result in harm to another. It is the intent to harm or do some evil purpose.

 Mechanical's Return
 
I could tell you to heal
it doesn't mean–
I'm not gonna have to deal
 
I've been fooled by men, too–
saying they were real
giving me all the deep thrills
while kicking my ass
on the treadmill
–that looking-good-for-them
became a perfected skill
–to be honest–
that inside need of mine–
they never fulfilled
 
I've been lied to by family–
that bloodline...not sealed
it's the worse manipulative
battlefield–
I've ever saw revealed
–especially when your ex–
helps the overkill
 
it all adds up in life–
becomes the great ball
of surreal
'did that really happen'
you asking yourself
trying to peel
all those layers–
in betrayal's ordeal
 
you move, then move again–
time...trying to steal
just to keep the heavy pounding
in your heart...still
 
you forgive all of them–
a bit of goodwill
done...you wipe up–
every tear you spill
alone...you move about
doing the ordinary:
eat, dress, clean, pay bills
waiting for the phone to squeal
waiting for:
'I'm sorry'
'I was wrong'
'what was I thinking, please forgive me'
'mom, I'm so sorry...you were right'

 
but it never comes–
even when the total truth...revealed
you realize you're dispensable–
you've been repealed
all their shame–
placed on your head–
without having to drill
–for them...it was so easy
your whole life gone…killed
 
of course, I know what comes next:
it's all your fault–
they'll claim you had control
of the wheel
they'll demand you get down–
kneel
pray, get saved
to God†...appeal
they'll shake you down–
all done in freewill
–you were put on a platter
served up like choiced veal
 
yes, I could tell you to heal
your life...rebuild
stitch together–
all the parts of your quilt
then put it all behind you–
move forward–
on an even keel
 
but then...I'd be lying to you–
I'd be better off
buying you a cocktail
take you...get some pretty nails
put your hair in a ponytail
then get ready...do some blackmail
 
but then...you'd be no better
than that betraying cartel
you'd become just  a plain ole infidel
–your soul...so easy to sell
 
to heal...you yourself
has to...outright...deal
 
you gotta face truth–
you're not the jezebel
you're better than all they dispel
you're stronger, wiser–
ring, ring goes the liberty bell
but first–
you've gotta face the swell
all that shit that put you in hell–
you've gotta roll in its pungent smell
you've gotta cry, scream, yell
–get it all out
in movements of a snail
you've gotta face every detail
learn why...in came...the fail–
their destructive zeal
–not anything...for long
you can conceal
 
then you're gonna bounce–
that's right...bounce
all that pain–
you're gonna unveil
forward....
you're gonna willingly propel
–the chains of your forced jail
no longer for the regale
–no longer...you...for sale
 
after you popped those chains–
you'll realize you fucking derailed
all they tried to nail
on your pretty little fingernails
–you done exhaled
you put yourself in prevail
the mechanical tall-tell
–the tipping of the scales
 
you're gonna learn
–on your own–
you've done been rebuilt
they can't even drown you–
in the best of ales
they can't even go
to the court of appeals
or on you–
seek the navy seals
 
you've become the real
in deal
for you didn't just heal
you've become the truth–
of the kneel!

Note: The photograph that accompanies this work was taken October 23rd, which revealed a lot through the spiritual world: the All-Seeing Eye (an interesting use of the gazebo to tell us that God sees all); the Dragon (The Dragon in Symbolization: The dragon, a legendary creature symbolizes protection, success, wisdom, loyalty, fearlessness, strength, balance, and immense possibility. Being the master of all four elements of Fire, Water, Earth, and Wind, it also embodies primordial power. Details of the Power Primordial Force is the primordial energy that originated everything – reality, time, space, life, death, matter, energy, and every possible and impossible concept existing and non-existing in the omniverse, from a single particular to the infinite  omniverse….God revealing His power and that He is over everything); the cross, God’s use of His energy through the orbs; faces and images of those present…spirits; and the earth’s change coming. In this particular photograph, the All-Seeing Eye; the promise made to me in the pink bubble; and Jesus’ love or presence showing through in the purple light.

(January 6, 2020)―This morning: Write from the heart today. I was empty then full…thinking about the things people will do and say when they have a mark on their heart labeled: Malicious Intent. These thoughts that I write about today started yesterday with me taking myself out for dinner and listening to hypocrites talk about segregated pre-planned housing and how they didn’t want to mix with other people’s traditions and cultures.

‘Channel’

Don’t change your independent self because of another person.

 Channel
 
a bird flies when its free
it stagnates
in captivity
its colors blossom
in variety
fading in ambiguity
‒plucking them out
in atrocity
 
in nature...the act in free
all the same
in its facility
a trapping technicality
‒being free has its complexity
 
as a woman
in her diplomacy
giving true
to her effeminacy
when treated
with significancy
 
when she's satisfied
in her sexuality
she falls into compliancy
even in another's complacency
giving up her self-sufficiency
even her style in flossy
being, at first
blissful in buoyancy
 
as it goes...comes the decadency
becoming aware
of the deficiency
–a broken down fallacy
as she meets each exigency
 
outward...comes her adamancy
as gone goes her sexy
–an inward building pudency
her usual controlled diplomacy
loses its bearing
to rampancy
 
as goes the controlling austerity
saving-money hostility
‒slowly caving
in her impetuosity
 
attention...gone its notoriety
even her newly shaped nudity
once praised with delicacy
gone...with looks
words in vulgarity
stripping
all her sexy naughty
–leaving vagueness
in commonality
 
lack of interest
opens a familiarity
once ignoring
so much secrecy
once ignoring the mendacity
pulling forward
all its perfidy
as gone...all her sensuality
understanding
its diverted generosity
she becomes lost
in recalcitrancy
–the precious kitty lost
to lunacy
 
all for giving her free
to submissive captivity
for the awakening
of her sexuality!

‘What Comes Out’

Anger: How changing this one emotion can change your entire life!

 What Comes Out
 
she weighted
the things she's said
‒those retaliating words
she weighted
the things she's done
thinking it all hard love
but it was anger
‒acting out
over another's danger
 
what makes you do
these things?
 
she pondered the question
the only answer: retaliation
she bowed her head
in confession
responding to those living
in secret
putting her in the dark...deeper
 
she weighted
her lost of control
‒all man things took their toll
grabbing at her in hold
her...letting it all
use her in bold
 
anger's put her in the red
shaped thoughts in head
then actions without thought
knowing the wrong
in every heart beat
then came further heat
 
she weighted
all these things
knowing too late always rings
seeking truth
sets off anger in sing
it's her life
not just some fling
 
she sighed just a bit
thinking these things
anger's become a distraction
at times
giving satisfaction
‒the evil whore's demolition
 
she bowed her head
in greater confession
this her greatest sin
one...with‒
she no longer
wants to blend
control‒
a fight she's determined
to win
‒using gratitude
from God's† den‒
the only way to contend
‒be put in the light
from way deep within

‘Hidden Treasure’

Discovering the hidden treasure in yourself!

 Hidden Treasure
 
I found it
in the mince of broken
it was afraid and hidden
an abundantly harvested token
‒over used and forsaken
 
I took it in
without fear's notion
‒not even feeling a demotion
I bathed
in its scented potion
rolled around
in its storied creation
 
I overlooked‒
its wicked formation
for I saw‒
a different translation
‒one that needed
a believer's gratification
one with a heart-filled formulation
 
I listened
to its every beckon
sometimes, in stages of drunken
 
all around...deemed it poison
something to be shackled‒
in a far-away prison
 
I threw out‒
traditionalized opinions
nothing stuck‒
rotten or forbidden
its scent just heightened
‒nothing could be wrong
or mistaken
 
I moved like lightening
intentional burns‒
gone...forgotten
‒days passing slow, steadfast‒
good ridden!
I drove it‒
to an endless vacation
‒whatever conviction
out...came my eviction
 
I smiled as I saw its rising
all my stops...fully opened
pulling it out of hopeless‒
with my inner-most motivation
‒a darkened star had risen!
 
I fought everything
in grand petition
every inside concentration‒
I put aside
rose to the occasion
‒with the fierceness of driven
this hidden treasure
overcoming every treason
to become the lamination
of a new generation!
 
stop!....
 
reveal
came its different ideas written
all avenues taken‒
off records...stricken
–beating all those defeating‒
overcoming...petitions
a losing validation!
 
I lost to its mention
‒there...in its private station
came to life‒
its own treasure hidden
in all its careful motions‒
belts and strings
forcefully tightened
 
I craved to be enlightened
–nothing valued...given
anything to elevate my vision
halted in moments of frighten
 
I fought constant bent roads‒
tried to straighten
tried to remember each lesson
through all that glistened‒
it had its own secrets woven
‒knowledge in listen
mixing up pointless decisions
taking all the forgivens
icing them‒
in the forever of frozen
 
yes, I found it
in the mince of broken
it was afraid and hidden
an abundantly harvested token
‒over used and forsaken
 
but all the good of will‒
off...steadily shakened
breathing‒
living a horrid token
in anger's hidden conviction
