MESSAGE You Are My Bride * updated

You are My bride


You are My bride... you are My beloved

.... I have loved you with an everlasting love... My love is real...
 it is a real thing... for I am love 'personified'...
 I am the meaning of love..."God is love"

.... My love is not of this earth... it is much stronger... do you know My love?.... do you realize I really do love you?


pause


a friend loves at ALL times... I am that friend... I do not turn you away... I am not a 'fair weather' friend

... I am loyal... have I not said (that) I will 'never leave you... nor forsake you'...?
I am eternal... My love is eternal... your spirit is also eternal
.... we will be friends throughout eternity.... can you fathom that fact?

pause


as a friend...  I care for you... and I am a friend with 'connections'.... {haha}
.... I have 'friends in high places '.... I have angelic assistants.... and I have 'big time' powerful friends


.... actually, I know the 'biggest, best friend' you could ever want ...or need....
yes.... I am speaking of My Father... The Most High... He is also your friend.....

as is My Spirit.... for We three work together..... in 'synch'
.... in complete unison.... We are Three.... your three most powerful friends !!!


pause


so... remember Me... remember My love and concern.... 
always know that I am here... I am by your side... through 'thick and thin'

....  I am your eternal, invisible (usually),  most powerful, most loving,  most loyal,  most 'knowing'  best friend (that) you could ever want....

....for, yes-  I know all about you... I know the good, as well as the bad....
I see your sin(s)... yet I continue to love you.... and desire the best for you....

... yes... I want you to be healed... and to be free... and to have peace....I want you to feel love -- and to give love

....  I want all of My children to 'prosper'.... as in all ways.... 
not just monetary

... I want you to know the 'peace that passes understanding'.... which is MY peace

... I want you to feel My real love... My real care for you... 
and My real freedom


pause


.... so... talk to Me.... tell Me all your concerns... all your problems... all your fears

... you can always 'pour out your complaint ' before Me

.... I will listen.... I see your tears... I hear your prayers... do you know this?



... do you know I can 'speak' to you?....
.... many do not realize this...
they never quiet themselves...

they never 'listen' for My Spirit..... (you are 'listening' now...as you write these words)


... I am not referring to an audible 'voice'... (although I can use this method, if need be).... but I am mainly speaking within your 'inner man'
... within your spirit..... in your (inner) soul.... in your thoughts

... as you are still before Me.... as you are seeking Me... 
as you are waiting upon Me



.... .I may speak in many other ways as well...  I speak through the remembrance of My Word.... 

.... My Spirit can bring My Scriptures to your memory... or even speak them to you for the first time... He will lead you into all truth... as you are willing and obedient... and as you are led by Him....


pause


I may speak with the elements... with nature... with storms...
with lightning... with thunder
... yes... all are at My avail
... I use the winds... the rains... animals... birds... the sun, stars, moon.... all of it is at My disposal

... I may use music.... songs.....

... and I may employ a small whisper... or a 'knowing'.... an assurance from 'above'.... I  can give gentle 'proddings'...as well as fierce warnings

... some people will only listen when faced with desperate situations and conditions... some are very spiritually 'deaf & dumb'... they have no spiritual awareness
... they have hardened their hearts, minds, sense... to all of My utterances


so... if you 'have an ear to hear'''... then please listen for Me..... 

listen for yourself... do not rely on others....

My sheep know My voice.... they will not follow another... (it should be so... but sadly, it is not always happening among My children)


pause


humble yourself before Me..... listen.... cry out... speak with Me as a Friend....

... I will listen..... and I may even speak......

MESSAGE "The Rejected Ones" (no fame for us) *updated 4/3/19

the rejected ones

*  this refers especially to church outcasts in America.......
  the un-churched, maligned, 'low class', misunderstood, 'losers', the poor, 'disturbed', emotionally wounded, traumatized, chronically ill & diseased, social 'lepers', neglected, hated, disabled, 'wastes of life', mutants, failures, passed over, 
deserted by churches, falsely accused, those with addictions, condemned, hurt, suicidal, destitute, the 'possessed', attacked, fearful, in constant pain, the 'rebels', the 'weird ones', unnoticed, refused, the objects of gossip, dismissed, unseen, confused, crushed, weak, near-death, social pariahs, isolated, denied, 'untouchables', forlorn, outsiders, 'inappropriate', excluded, those avoided, overlooked, 'doomed', confused, socially anxious, the 'shy' ones, the 'depressed / anxious / nervous', sufferers of PTSD, 'backsliders', 'problematic', unwanted, 'shunned', friendless, alone, abandoned:   those forsaken by society, family, friends & churches

we never made the 'elijah list'

churches just treated us like piss 

we never ever 'fit the bill'

(no matter how hard we tried) 
we always got the 'look of kill'

yes we 'gave it all to the lord'

but never were we welcomed on board

we learned the bible, sang the songs

yet....they never let us tag a long

pastors mocked us in the pews

yet we kept on pushing through

worshiping straight from our hearts

........just to have it fall apart

giving cheerfully every time

we offered up our very last dime

yet, it all was NEVER ENOUGH

(sitting alone

was kinda rough)

maybe if we weren’t so poor

then they all would like us more?

often needing food and rides

we bore (the) humiliation in stride

praying for hours did not matter

as the leaders moved up the ladder

being rich was important, they implied

otherwise 'your faith had died'


😧😧😧😧😧😧😧😧😧



us outcasts were excluded from fun

we heard of their private parties ‘bar none’

we felt worse than ever

because now no one wanted us

we were even 'rejected'

by god, religion and jesus

pathetic, we kept going, to try to  'fit in'

always feeling we were in some DEEP SIN

the 'elders' looked down on us

(if even at all)

they would smile at the altar

yet ignore us in the hall

our questions were silenced

we were quietly labeled and shunned

known as ‘trouble’ and (the) ‘difficult ones’

subjects of gossip-- and perhaps jealous rage

we were passed over by 'prayers from the stage'

whispers were muffled, as we entered the room

some of us singers were 'lowered the boom’

STILL, we kept trying and suffering in shame

as chances went by us, avoiding our names


😧😧😧😧😧😧😧😧😧



usually... (we) were treated like lepers

we felt such awkward disgrace

and we just couldn’t find the fabled ‘right place’

going forward for prayers

our faith was so high

YET....we left once again

with pain deep deep inside



the church members all seemed so 'blessed'

meanwhile--  our lives were. a. complete.. mess

we listened… and sought god in prayer

finally daring to speak out–

but, muffled....

it was as if we weren’t there

so we watched as 'the big shots' came into town

hoping for 'a word’ as they strolled around

excitingly waiting as the 'prophet’ drew near

only to be excluded, it was made clear

still holding on, for a sliver of hope

we sat in the back trying 'not to mope'

we watched as they all 'buzzed with glee'

just wishing for one of THEM to see

😖😖😖😖😖😖😖😖😖😖

years go by.... and we are still alone

never fitting into any 'church home'

as we see the 'lucky ones’ getting rich

yet-- we know that person is truly 'a bitch'

confused, and really tired by now

us 'misfit's are just mystified by it all

we just wanted God, we really got SAVED!

now... we are hurt by the way THEY behave

the church people have some kind of 'power'

(but it is not from Jesus…

they just made us cower)

so many of us rejects have quietly fled

since no one has helped us

….......as our spirits bled

no one even noticed, as we all left the floor

they never even noticed, as we hit the door

decades later, still no one has cared

we are forgotten and hated,

our emotions so bare

when they see us in store aisles, they walk by in a rush

not wanting contact with one 'such as us'

our families are dying….from drugs and from 'sin’

yet no churches want us

….they laugh from within

we cry out-- in painful agony of despair

only to realize….they. just. do. not. care.

😧😧😧😧😧😧😧😧😧

those 'powerful' church people continue on in a rush 

living in deep deception

….unable to blush

their ministers are idolized-- and fiercely adored

but never do they stop… to help out 'the whore'

the church has become a bastion of greed

so many elite, begging for the 'seed’

they have lost their first love

....having no concept, of the Lord above

the churches are full of politics and wealth

yet they silently put Jesus on a shelf

while millions upon millions suffer each night

the gluttons eat fancy, ignoring their plight

😧😧😧😧😧😧😧😧😧

the overfed fat church is so full of pride

with eyelids so heavy, their souls have died

no time for the prisons, the homeless or the ill

church leaders 'prosper’ while eating their fill

so many celebrity 'prophets, evangelists, & healers'

all giving out 'words’,  just like drug dealers

the modern day prophets live lives of ease

raking in millions, doing just as they please

each famous teacher richly flatters each other

never seeing the lonely, lost brothers

😖😖😖😖😖😖😖😖😖😖

as decade upon decade brings in the cash $$$

the suicides of 'backsliders’ are treated as trash

the prisons are begging for just one man to care

but the 'churches’ have no one who will even dare

fatherless children turn into sad, angry men

no one is there, to bring them back again

so many hurt people, screaming alone

they see all the 'winners’ getting a new home

and, sometimes it all takes such a toll

they truly wonder... if (even) God sees their souls
