The Bridegroom and His Bride.
In the purest joy of the moment, in the sacred place, a lush Garden, bursting with Joyous Life, trees with big hanging Fruit, luscious rolling valleys covered in blankets of blossoming colourful flowers, split only by a Crystal River flowing down from the High Place. I’m suddenly taken at the speed of light, deep into the Fiery Inestimable Brilliance.
This Pure Light guiding me more surely than the light of noonday, there He is, Strong and Mighty, Lord God together with me in the depths of Our Sacred Place in me, Oh!, Brilliant Light that’s guiding me, Oh!, Marvellous Light more lovely than the dawn, Oh!, the Purest Love joining together beloved with Lover, Lover transforming the beloved! i am possessed, marked by the Seal of Your Spirit in my heart, kept wholly for You alone, in the Sacred Place, there You stayed Mighty and Steadfast in me, causing my soul to be silent in the midst of Truth, i adore You.
Your River flows thick and heavy and strong, the leaves of Your cedar trees applaud the Power of Love filling the air. A gentle Breeze blows and swirls, i part Your locks, You are looking at me, You burn me and purify me deep within Oh! God, Your Rod and Staff comforts me, i’m Yours; With Your strong arms and gentle hands You hold me safe, Your Bride; You hide me in the Cleft of The Rock; my senses become completely suspended; i remain There, completely lost in oblivion and wholly captured by Your Beauty.
Like a waterfall, Your Salvation washing over me, washing me whiter than the whitest snow! my face reclines on Your chest. I'm completely undone, i abandon myself to You, leaving my cares forgotten among the lilies, drawing deeper into my Christ; i’m crushed by Your Mighty Love like a delicate little naked flower in Your hand, my life, a vapour, a sweet smelling fragrance, for You my Lord. i become nothing, because You become Everything living in me; Heaven is open and Your Glory descends over my little helplessly exposed life, irradiating it completely with Love, as the sun illuminates anything its rays shine through. And, thus completely illuminating me, darkness cannot be found;
You rapture my little 'breath of a life', and carry it on high deep into the Sacred Places of Heaven, You replace me on the Altar and You give Your Blood for me; i’m totally suspended in Love; i draw in a deep thick Breath of Love, and breathe out Love. i drink in deep a Breath of Salvation and breathe out Pure Joy. i drink in deep the Breath of Truth and breathe out Peace. Breathe in deep My Breath of Life, so that you can breathe out My Breath of Life. Eat of My mercy and you will be mercy; i’m intoxicated! Breathe in, and out, drink in deep, then release. Come! Feast yourself at My Banquet, rest, then go and call the multitudes.
Walk to the rhythm of Heaven. Feast yourself on Me, rest, then release, be full of Joy my lovely. Each mouthful is nourishing you, satisfying you and is transforming you more and more into My Image and Likeness. The Flow of Pure Whiteness passes through the Outer Courts, passed the Inner Courts, then completely overtakes everything
within me. At the same time everything within me, drowning in brilliant Whiteness, the Light of Truth consuming me, forever changing the nature of everything within me, Jesus You’re penetrating the core of my being, at a level more profound than my own life. Love, furiously burning so bright, illuminating the Holy of Holies deep from within me;
All fear, shame, anger, hurt and brokenness is rendered silently suspended in me, a most truthful posture, in the presence of a my God. O Lord my God, my Creator and my Redeemer, Jesus I yearn to receive You this day with such reverence, praise, and honour, with such gratitude, worthiness and love, with such faith, hope, and purity. Therefore I offer and present to You the gladness of my heart, my deepest affection, my mental raptures, my supernatural illuminations and my heavenly visions together with all the virtues and praises which have been or shall be celebrated by all creatures in heaven and on earth, that through it all, by the Mighty Power of Your Holy Spirit, You may be worthily praised and adored and glorified forever and ever, my Lord, my Love, my dearest Friend. Amen.
