What Truly Remains? The Heavens Are Telling The Glory of The Lord!
What truly remains? It is written in 1 Corinthians 13:12-13 that not only are we known by God, but we will fully know him. When that time of perfection, that time of completion comes, we will see reality face to face. Then it goes on to teach us about how remaining in trust in the promises of the Word of God. Also, our confident expectation of our eternal salvation and unselfish love towards others are being perfected by the same love we are being perfected in. These three are the choicest gifts, but the greatest is love. God is love, God is light, and God is life! (I John 1:3-5 and 1 John 4:8)
The Name of Jesus Christ is a light unto the Gentiles, the nations and in that name is hope! (Matthew 12:21) Jesus will and has restored the needy. He will not put out the light of men or break them but comes to reconcile them unto himself and to quicken their life in his perfect love. In Isaiah 42:1-4 the word teaches us that in Christ Jesus, justice will come forth to the nations. We can do a quick inventory of our current nation and the very heart and soul of this nation and with great discernment know how much we need Jesus in every faucet of our lives. We can draw from his strength, his instruction, his own suffering. Even at Calvary he was not disheartened or crushed, but persevered and gave up the Holy Ghost to Father God. He endured the race until the end, which is what we are called to do. (Matthew 24:13, Acts 20:24 and Hebrews 12:1-3)
We know that creation is groaning, preparing for the Eternal Kings soon return. We are the fruit of the womb of God’s Kingdom through Christ Jesus. The preparation, change and expectancy of creation indicates a blessing, a sign of our soon redemption as adopted. A blessed assurance of transformation life of our resurrected bodies! That doesn’t come without a rather discerning moment of clarity. Am I ready? For in this hope, we are saved through faith! (Romans 8:22-25) Christ Jesus is truly the hope of the world. (Titus 2:11-13) It is written that we are to reject ungodliness and worldly desires and live upright as we confidently await the completion of our blessed hope. How are we to conduct ourselves in this confident expectation? With patience, compassion and composure.

The Excellence and Healing Power of Love
One of my favorite places in the bible is 1 Corinthians 13 that teaches about the excellence of love. It leads us to gain wisdom on the attributes of God, because God is love. It helps us to understand the intentions of our Savoir as he loved us first and love hung on that alter between heaven and earth. This universal call to love and demonstration of love has no equal. It is the greatest expression of love that God could have ever given. With, this helpful perspective in Corinthians, it is so very healing. Not only does it point to God, but it points to followers of Christ, children and much, much more. The originator of love knew the power of the seeds of agape, unselfish love and the impact it would have on this world, to the very soul of man.
It helps us to understand when Christ was asked what the greatest commandments were, how profound it truly was to hypocrites and true followers. (Matthew 22:36-40) The greatest commandments were centered around unselfish love. Unselfish love towards God and making him the center of all your thoughts, desires, joy and happiness. He also commanded us to love our brothers and sisters as ourselves. These two commandments truly point us to 1 Corinthians 13………...love never fails. Without love, our voices are likening to a clanking cymbal! Upon this “Spiritual Fruit” hands all commandments, five commanding our love toward God and five pointing towards our love to our brethren. (1 Corinthians 13:8)
In the days ahead it is imperative that we remain in agape love, the works of the fruits of the spirit and not the fruit and works of the flesh. It’s imperative that we hope, trust and have faith in God to finish the work is our brethren as well as ourselves, that he so graciously started. (Hebrews 12:2) It is imperative that we take everything to God and ask him what the next step is, in our personal preparation for his soon coming. Just like Esther, she had a beautification period of a year. Even though she demonstrated that physically, spiritually speaking she was in the Lord’s presence seeking him in leading her so she could be what Father God needed her to be before the presence of her King. Let’s use our time wisely as we come to terms with this world that is under judgment at the hand of the enemies of God. But………righteousness and justice are the foundations of God’s throne. Open your eyes, O ancient gates, for your King of Glory is coming! (Psalms 24 and Psalms 89:14)
- Psalms 89:14
Righteousness and justice are the foundation of Your throne;
Lovingkindness and truth go before You.

The 2024 Eclipse Vision
I am so grateful to have attended a conference this year with Hear The Watchman during the time of the Eclipse of 2024 in Grapevine Texas. It was an amazing time of fellowship, worship and teachings from many brothers and sisters with such an anointing to teach. Each one brings a puzzle piece to the “Big Picture” of this prophetic journey leading us in the everlasting love, eternal salvation in Christ Jesus.
Heidi Begley brought a fresh word and teaching about meeting God with expectancy during our stay during the conference and thereafter. It spoke so deeply to my soul as it did to many that day. It lingered in my mind because I knew that it was an appointment, a personal one for each of us. So when the Eclipse day arrived, I still was in a spirit of expectancy that God would meet me there is some way.
There were many brothers and sisters there anticipating the events and the gathering of the saints in that place. Some were praying, some were worshipping, others were laughing and fellowshipping. There was a man who was blowing the trumpet, God was on the move and very much at work there that day. I could see smiling faces, hugs and people laying on blankets like when they were kids, just watching the clouds. What a glorious day to be with family!
I remember hearing the ewes and awes as the clouds would move by and cover the eclipse, overshadowing the full view of it. It would crepe through the clouds again as everyone patiently waited for the perfect completion of this heavenly event. Everyone seemed so patient and yet not wanting to miss anything. I remember watching the clouds and it was so beautifully orchestrated. The clouds were thin as if they were a veil over the sun. It was wonderful to watch the eclipse of the sun and to experience the change in the light, the temperature and the stillness of the moments leading to the arrival of the light breakthrough again.
It was like the birthing of light unto the world again. I thought to myself, what a beautiful birth of light through the veil of the clouds. As the light started out very small and got bigger an open vision began to manifest before me. I kept moving my glasses off and back on, again and again. I was amazed with what I saw. I heard the voices of the ewes and the awes again and I thought “Is this the coming of Jesus Christ? Can they see him too?”
I contently watched as the light grew bigger and bigger, so did the Angle of the Lord get closer and closer towards me. I saw that there were angels forming a line in parallel with Jesus. They were translucent red, white and blue. I knew that the Lord was speaking to America but what was the full message besides “He is coming and very soon”. I immediately drew the picture of what I saw and as I was writing, my sister in Christ was under attack. I was reminded by the Holy Spirit that the Devils Comet was also in view that day. All I saw was the open vision of the Lord of Hosts and his Angels in formation.
As the day unfolded, I asked others what they saw. They saw planets, stars, the comet, but they did not see the Angel of the Lord or Angels. I began quite a journey through prayer, warfare and study in the Word. I knew that this message and those to follow were of the upmost importance and that I must be very careful in sharing each aspect. I knew that I must be patient in releasing this in God’s timing.
Watching the sun flairs, CME’s, recent solar storms and weather, well God Almighty is speaking very loudly. So I will be sharing more in the days, weeks and months ahead and look forward to the coming of Christ Jesus, our redeemer.

Habakkuk 3:2-4 (Amplified Bible)
2 O Lord, I have heard the report about You and I fear.
O Lord, revive Your work in the midst of the years,
In the midst of the years make it known;
In wrath [earnestly] remember compassion and love.3 God [approaching from Sinai] comes from Teman (Edom),
And the Holy One from [a]Mount Paran. Selah ([b]pause, and calmly think of that).
His splendor and majesty covers the heavens
And the earth is full of His praise.
4 His brightness is like the sunlight;
He has [bright] rays flashing from His hand,
And there [in the sunlike splendor] is the hiding place of His power.
Psalm 19 (Amplified Bible)
The Works and the Word of God.
To the Chief Musician. A Psalm of David.
19 The heavens are telling of the glory of God;
And the expanse [of heaven] is declaring the work of His hands.
2 Day after day pours forth speech,
And night after night reveals knowledge.
3 There is no speech, nor are there [spoken] words [from the stars];
Their voice is not heard.
4 Yet their voice [in quiet evidence] has gone out through all the earth,
Their words to the end of the world.
In them and in the heavens He has made a tent for the sun,
5 Which is as a bridegroom coming out of his chamber;
It rejoices as a strong man to run his course.
6 The sun’s rising is from one end of the heavens,
And its circuit to the other end of them;
And there is nothing hidden from its heat.7 The law of the Lord is perfect (flawless), restoring and refreshing the soul;
The statutes of the Lord are reliable and trustworthy, making wise the simple.
8 The precepts of the Lord are right, bringing joy to the heart;
The commandment of the Lord is pure, enlightening the eyes.
9 The fear of the Lord is clean, enduring forever;
The judgments of the Lord are true, they are righteous altogether.
10 They are more desirable than gold, yes, than much fine gold;
Sweeter also than honey and the drippings of the honeycomb.
11 Moreover, by them Your servant is warned [reminded, illuminated, and instructed];
In keeping them there is great reward.
12
Who can understand his errors or omissions? Acquit me of hidden (unconscious, unintended) faults.
13 Also keep back Your servant from presumptuous (deliberate, willful) sins;
Let them not rule and have control over me.
Then I will be blameless (complete),
And I shall be acquitted of great transgression.
14 Let the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart
Be acceptable and pleasing in Your sight,
O Lord, my [firm, immovable] rock and my Redeemer.
Gods’ ways are higher than ours and his thoughts are higher than ours. In him we have faith, hope, trust and perfect love! I will share more on this and how the Holy Spirit has been speaking to me about what truly remains and what we as believers must consider in the days ahead. I will also share about devil’s comet that was in the heavens at the same time as the 2024 Eclipse next time.
