Time For Awakening For Listening And For Obeying

The poems and short stories are a compilation none other of repentance, acceptance of the seventh Messenger to the Laodicean Age William Marrion Branham, the Revelation of Jesus Christ, preparation for His coming and carnal death to ourselves and to the things of this world. Most of the poems and short stories have been derived from the messages which William Marrion Branham preached and presented during the twentieth Century. These messages by the grace of God are still being preached and presented this very day in our nation (USA) and across the world in all languages and dialects; and it's taken to thirsty souls which are found in darkness by gallant servant men (angels of God) and they go from the North and South and to the East and West; and wherever the need or the call is that's were the servants of Jesus Christ shall be. "And I heard another voice from heaven, saying Come out of her, my people, that ye be not partakers of her sins, and that ye receive not of her plagues" (Revelation 18:4).

God uses people daily to communicate His fragrance and message to us. Too often we don't check to see what aroma or impression we are leaving for others to see, hear, or smell. After visiting someone's home or before checking out of a motel, or when moving, we double check to make sure we haven't left anything behind. Even criminals check to make sure they haven't left any clues at the crime scene to identify them. A story reminded me of this. A robber thought he had committed the perfect crime. He assumed he left no clues behind. But he didn't count on someone remembering how he smelled. The smell he left behind was what helped convict him. Yes, we leave something everywhere we go. Stuart Holden reminded a young man moving from a boarding house of this fact when the young man said, he was just double checking to make sure he wasn't leaving anything behind. "There's one thing you will leave behind, young man, your influence."

This new book by Sister Aquinata Böckmann discusses the Prologue and chapters 1, 2, and 3 of the Rule of St. Benedict. In a lectio regulae she plumbs the depths of Benedict’s vision. Listen, the first word of the Prologue, is a keyword that describes the main stance of the individual monastic, the superior, and the entire community. Listening to the Scriptures and in them to Christ guides individuals and the community on how to “run on the way of God’s commandments” toward the goal of communal life in and with Christ. The first three chapters of the Rule concretize the principles of this communal spirituality of listening: the importance of a rule and a pastor for maintaining the community’s attentiveness to life; the superior’s responsibility to listen to individuals within the community; and the mutual listening between leader and community members, regardless of their age. As in her earlier books Sister Aquinata proves to be a true guide into the spirit of Benedict’s Rule, which provides sound principles for listening in common in a community of life.

The human race has been waiting for the revelations that are written in this Holy Book. How to develop a greater understanding and personal relationship with thy Holy Spirit. The Majestic Connection states how our mortal souls connects to the divine intent of God. The following of false religions has created great dismay and has hindered the spiritual awakening in mankind. This book has been received under the guidance of the Holy Spirit. I know it will awaken those whom slumber and give them a greater understanding to the Higher Truths.

On Fire for God: A Deeper Passion for the Lord and His Purpose reflects one woman's beliefs and faith in the Lord.
