True Life in God

celestial beauty to be able to step into
Your Glory O Christ and live forever! my
step will not be mine but His! I will be
walking with God because from carnal
pleasures I have turned away, and now
my spirit is living in blessedness and is
incorrupt befitting the Triune God and
His Holy Presence”;

Lord, our iniquities are great,
but forgive us,
help us so that our flesh blooms once more!
Pull each soul out of the net
the enemy has spread over them,
for you alone are our Refuge,
our Rock, our Fortress and our Life;
The Plague that is stalking in our world
and works only by night
in shadow of death,
but wreaks havoc by its scourge
in broad daylight
is now looming over Your Fold;
are You going to take a stand
to save Your people
from the mire of evil men?
Scriptures say:
“Yahweh loves those who repudiate evil,
He guards the souls of the devout,
rescuing them from the clutches
of the wicked;”
let then Your Powerful Arm
come to our rescue;
let the enemy tremble before Your Majesty;
do not let the enemy say:
“how unreliable is Your God ...”
the Enemy is challenging You,
testing You, my God,
to see what You could do;
so, my Yahweh, who revived me
in Your Mercy, show Your Greatness
and that indeed You are our Safety,
our Rock and on our side,
show Your Glory and Power,
remember Your virtuous,
Your people and all those
who served You with passion;
So when are You going to thunder
Your verdicts from heaven?
when are You going to stand up
and pound the earth with Your Sceptre
to pronounce silence?
one look of reproof from You
and all elements of the earth
can catch fire;
one move from You
and the earth will be reduced
to a desolation;
one word of wrath from You
and the stars will come rolling down
from heaven, plunging on us;
Lord! I am Your handiwork
and You have put a spark inside me
to keep me alive;
if I am burning now with ‘pathos’

for the virtuous, Your people and the just
to find justice in You,
it is from Your Flame;
grant me, to see justice done
to Your holy ones,
deploy Your Strength
by ordering all things to turn good;
let your Triumph come!
I once said to you, Vassula, that My
people, the flock, are straying this way
and that; for this reason I called for a
period of grace; in this period of grace I
meant to display the Holiness of My
Name so that whosoever had profaned
himself would have the opportunity of a
return;
I come in this period of grace to
encourage you all to live holy and follow
My Precepts; My Name reached many
lands and distant islands; I ranged the
earth as I had foretold you, with My Call,
