Master? You know how troubled I am with this new problem with my eyes. But I refuse to give way to my fear that something is dreadfully wrong with my eyes. For it does not matter whether such is true or not.
Friday, October 30, 2020 at 11:28 am.
What am I to post next my Master? Perhaps bring on Isaiah 30 or Isaiah 1? Perhaps concentrate on Yahushua’s written words? The book of John comes to mind. From the first chapter that book is the most revealing book to me. I will read it again and wait to see how You want me to proceed.
Friday, October 30, 2020 at 4:24 pm.
Ha! Your leading to the perfect headline to continue proclaiming Your written words from Your heart and mind not mine. Indeed! Your light is shining in the darkness of many of our minds. What a marvel!
Saturday, October 31, 2020 at 9:23 am.
This is the last 7th Day of Rest on the 10th month of 2020 year. As You lead me to look around me, I do. I have watched the news from Israel. You quickened Psalms 2 again.
So? You are leading me to quote Psalms 2 again based on what I watched on Jerry Golden’s site. Here we go!
And why do the people imagine (meditate upon and devise) an empty scheme? How well the tragic aftermath of COVID-19 is described in those words written in Psalms 2.
Sovereign Authority Over His Creation!

This is the most revealing book for this 2020 year. The year for enlightenment to rain upon us. The Life Was The Light Of Men. And The Light Shines On In The Darkness. So be it.
John 1:1-51 AMPC+
IN THE beginning [before all time] was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God Himself. [Isa_9:6]
He was present originally with God.
All things were made and came into existence through Him; and without Him was not even one thing made that has come into being.
In Him was Life, and the Life was the Light of men.
And the Light shines on in the darkness, for the darkness has never overpowered it [put it out or absorbed it or appropriated it, and is unreceptive to it].
There came a man sent from God, whose name was John. [Mal_3:1]
This man came to witness, that he might testify of the Light, that all men might believe in it [adhere to it, trust it, and rely upon it] through him.
He was not the Light himself, but came that he might bear witness regarding the Light.
There it was–the true Light [was then] coming into the world [the genuine, perfect, steadfast Light] that illumines every person. [Isa_49:6]
He came into the world, and though the world was made through Him, the world did not recognize Him [did not know Him].
He came to that which belonged to Him [to His own–His domain, creation, things, world], and they who were His own did not receive Him and did not welcome Him.
But to as many as did receive and welcome Him, He gave the authority (power, privilege, right) to become the children of God, that is, to those who believe in (adhere to, trust in, and rely on) His name–[Isa_56:5]
Who owe their birth neither to bloods nor to the will of the flesh [that of physical impulse] nor to the will of man [that of a natural father], but to God. [They are born of God!]
And the Word (the Messiah) became flesh (human, incarnate) and tabernacled (fixed His tent of flesh, lived awhile) among us; and we [actually] saw His glory (His honor, His majesty), such glory as an only begotten son receives from his father, full of grace (favor, loving-kindness) and truth. [Isa_40:5]
John testified about Him and cried out, This was He of Whom I said, He Who comes after me has priority over me, for He was before me. [He takes rank above me, for He existed before I did. He has advanced before me, because He is my Chief.]
For out of His fullness (abundance) we have all received [all had a share and we were all supplied with] one grace after another and spiritual blessing upon spiritual blessing and even favor upon favor and gift [heaped] upon gift.
For while the Law was given through Moses, grace (unearned, undeserved favor and spiritual blessing) and truth came through Yahushua Messiah. [Exo_20:1]
No man has ever seen God at any time; the only unique Son, or the only begotten God, Who is in the bosom [in the intimate presence] of the Father, He has declared Him [He has revealed Him and brought Him out where He can be seen; He has interpreted Him and He has made Him known]. [Pro_8:30]
And this is the testimony of John when the Jews sent priests and Levites to him from Jerusalem to ask him, Who are you?
He confessed (admitted the truth) and did not try to conceal it, but acknowledged, I am not the Messiah!
They asked him, What then? Are you Elijah? And he said, I am not! Are you the Prophet? And he answered, No! [Deu_18:15, Deu_18:18; Mal_4:5]
Then they said to him, Who are you? Tell us, so that we may give an answer to those who sent us. What do you say about yourself?
He said, I am the voice of one crying aloud in the wilderness [the voice of one shouting in the desert], Prepare the way of the Master [level, straighten out, the path of the Master], as the prophet Isaiah said. [Isa_40:3]
The messengers had been sent from the Pharisees.
And they asked him, Why then are you baptizing if you are not the Messiah, nor Elijah, nor the Prophet?
John answered them, I [only] baptize in (with) water. Among you there stands One Whom you do not recognize and with Whom you are not acquainted and of Whom you know nothing. [Mal_3:1]
It is He Who, coming after me, is preferred before me, the string of Whose sandal I am not worthy to unloose.
These things occurred in Bethany (Bethabara) across the Jordan [at the Jordan crossing], where John was then baptizing.
The next day John saw Yahushua coming to him and said, Look! There is the Lamb of God, Who takes away the sin of the world! [Exo_12:3; Isa_53:7]
This is He of Whom I said, After me comes a Man Who has priority over me [Who takes rank above me] because He was before me and existed before I did.
And I did not know Him and did not recognize Him [myself]; but it is in order that He should be made manifest and be revealed to Israel [be brought out where we can see Him] that I came baptizing in (with) water.
John gave further evidence, saying, I have seen the Spirit descending as a dove out of heaven, and it dwelt on Him [never to depart].
And I did not know Him nor recognize Him, but He Who sent me to baptize in (with) water said to me, Upon Him Whom you shall see the Spirit descend and remain, that One is He Who baptizes with the Holy Spirit.
And I have seen [that happen—I actually did see it] and my testimony is that this is the Son of God!
Again the next day John was standing with two of his disciples,
And he looked at Yahushua as He walked along, and said, Look! There is the Lamb of God!
The two disciples heard him say this, and they followed Him.
But Yahushua turned, and as He saw them following Him, He said to them, What are you looking for? [And what is it you wish?] And they answered Him, Rabbi—which translated is Teacher—where are You staying?
He said to them, Come and see. So they went and saw where He was staying, and they remained with Him that day. It was then about the tenth hour (about four o’clock in the afternoon).
One of the two who heard what John said and followed Yahushua was Andrew, Simon Peter’s brother.
He first sought out and found his own brother Simon and said to him, We have found (discovered) the Messiah!—which translated is the the Anointed One).
Andrew then led (brought) Simon to Yahushua. Yahushua looked at him and said, You are Simon son of John. You shall be called Cephas—which translated is Peter [Stone].
The next day Yahushua desired and decided to go into Galilee; and He found Philip and said to him, Join Me as My attendant and follow Me.
Now Philip was from Bethsaida, of the same city as Andrew and Peter.
Philip sought and found Nathanael and told him, We have found (discovered) the One Moses in the Law and also the Prophets wrote about–Yahushua from Nazareth, the [legal] son of Joseph!
Nathanael answered him, [Nazareth!] Can anything good come out of Nazareth? Philip replied, Come and see!
Yahushua saw Nathanael coming toward Him and said concerning him, See! Here is an Israelite indeed [a true descendant of Jacob], in whom there is no guile nor deceit nor falsehood nor duplicity!
Nathanael said to Yahushua, How do You know me? [How is it that You know these things about me?] Yahushua answered him, Before [ever] Philip called you, when you were still under the fig tree, I saw you.
Nathanael answered, Teacher, You are the Son of God! You are the King of Israel!
Yahushua replied, Because I said to you, I saw you beneath the fig tree, do you believe in and rely on and trust in Me? You shall see greater things than this!
Then He said to him, I assure you, most solemnly I tell you all, you shall see heaven opened, and the angels of God ascending and descending upon the Son of Man! [Gen_28:12; Dan_7:13]. End of quote.
Saturday, October 31, 2020 at 2:16 pm
It is all about preparing the way. Prepare the way of the Master [level, straighten out, the path of the Master], as the prophet Isaiah said.
We labor in vain. Even worst, we become self-righteous. For the most we all do our best to prepare and to live according to Your Word, but! We come short in Your sight.
So far the ministers of my acquaintance don’t seem to be concerned in the least with what You are doing in my life. The whole spectrum of leaders and followers is quite alarming to me, but!
Sunday, November 1, 2020 at 2:05 am.
Master? You know that I am writing these words under extreme duress. Not only with my eye hurting but also with my heart in suspense with all that You let me see happening among Your people.
Your words are a lamp under my feet showing me the way to go for all matters and purposes. You know all about my concerns about the lack of monies to take care of things that perhaps are only the lust of my eye.
And You know that my concern with what You show that goes on with Your people is even greater. But!
Quote:
John 6:32-40 AMPC+
Yahushua then said to them, I assure you, most solemnly I tell you, Moses did not give you the Bread from heaven [what Moses gave you was not the Bread from heaven], but it is My Father Who gives you the true heavenly Bread.
For the Bread of God is He Who comes down out of heaven and gives life to the world.
Then they said to Him, Lord, give us this bread always (all the time)!
Yahushua replied, I am the Bread of Life. He who comes to Me will never be hungry, and he who believes in and cleaves to and trusts in and relies on Me will never thirst any more (at any time).
But [as] I told you, although you have seen Me, still you do not believe and trust and have faith.
All whom My Father gives (entrusts) to Me will come to Me; and the one who comes to Me I will most certainly not cast out [I will never, no never, reject one of them who comes to Me].
For I have come down from heaven not to do My own will and purpose but to do the will and purpose of Him Who sent Me.
And this is the will of Him Who sent Me, that I should not lose any of all that He has given Me, but that I should give new life and raise [them all] up at the last day.
For this is My Father’s will and His purpose, that everyone who sees the Son and believes in and cleaves to and trusts in and relies on Him should have eternal life, and I will raise him up [from the dead] at the last day. End of quote.
Mercy my Master! Mercy! For most of my life I thought I believed, cleaved, trusted and relied on the Son, but! For all matters and purposes I believed, cleaved, trusted and relied on in my own resources or in the stability of earthly things. (1Jn_2:16)
What am I to do about such concerns my Master? You are my Shepherd, my Master, the Redeemer of my soul. I have no intentions to go to any earthly resource for my answers as I did in the past.
Even so? I cannot brag about my determination to rely on You for my healings. Not at all! Indeed! Not bragging only sharing what You have made out of me. You did the work.
And that is Your purpose for compelling me to post these matters. And that is the way You are reaching the heart and mind of each one of Your children.
Ha! In the past when I first started blogging, I beg for likes and comments and compliments on the guise to encourage each other, but now? Hum!
And with that note You are leading me to close this post for all its worth. I am sure You are accomplishing Your purpose in the heart of each one of Your children with each post You compel me to write and publish.
So be it.
Your love in my heart for all. thiaBasilia.


Tuesday, September 1, 2020 at 11:39 am.
Yes indeed! Your tribe. Starting on this month You are narrowing all posting to be addressed to Your Tribe. There shall be posting only in two sites.
Tuesday, September 1, 2020 at 10:20 pm.
I don’t know how it all shall work from now on, but! Day by day. Moment by moment You are showing me the way.
It all seems so far from me. Hundreds of people rioting down below. Police on the scene. Maybe the rioting is over. Things are now quieted. My little friend arrived with food.
Wednesday, September 2, 2020 at 12:21 am.
Master? You really, really are in control of every minute detail of my life. You know my thoughts before I even think of them. You know I been thinking to ask for more money than what I got last month, but!
Dreaming about shoes in general – If you dreamed about shoes without many other details in the dream, such dream could symbolize going on a spiritual journey aiming to develop your spirituality.
This dream could also symbolize the progress on your life path and the move towards your goals and desires. It could also symbolize coming to an understanding of something.
You are also revealing to me the progress on my life path and the move towards the goals and desires You have implanted within me.
Wednesday, September 2, 2020 at 6:21 am.
The summer heat is at its peak, and so it is with the spring in my soul. What a blessing it is to rejoice in my infirmities instead of letting those deprive me of the bliss of Your morning kiss.
Thursday, September 3, 2020 at 2:42 am.
My Tribe To Shine! Shine Tribe Shine! You had me to work on the cover for the Tribe nonstop all day yesterday. Before midnight I crashed in bed. Master? I don’t remember what went on while I slept on and off until 5 am.
Thursday, September 3, 2020 at 3:20 pm.
The pain, the summer heat, the silence? I been wondering why? Things have been on the up and up. Even a cool spring day to my delight. I heard from my children and from Ahmad. Suddenly!
Wonder or doubt or what, my Master? What have I done or not done? All indications are for Your blessings. Ha! Perhaps all this hardship is a blessing! I see it, my Master! Just now I see it.
Wow! What a revelation! What time it is? It is 3:57 pm. What that means? Why You quickened the time to me right now? Let me see.
Shine Tribe Shine! Is Your command. In retrospect, the month of July began Your preparation to setup Your Tribe or Your selected group of readers with You for the common grounds of our lives.
Wednesday, July 1, 2020 at 9:52 pm.
Not only my attitude about everything and everybody but my working habits as well. And to boot it all? You are showing me how to avail myself of the things that I thought I had to wait for. End of quote.
Thursday, September 3, 2020 at 10:58 pm
Problems! Now I cannot login to the site to work on it. Will restart and see if it works. It did not work. I slept. Got up to continue with the quest to login to the site.
Friday, September 4, 2020 at 10:45 am.
It came to me to reset Windows and to restore backup from Siteground. It is done. I will now restart and see what happens.
Saturday, September 5, 2020 at 2:53 pm.
It’s the first 7th Day of Rest of this 9th month of 2020. You are leading me all the way despite all setbacks. The Internet quits on and off. Not being able to find the solutions for the computer crashing unexpectedly, but!
Saturday, September 5, 2020 at 6:16 pm.
All things happening leave a jolt of joy in my soul. New ideas keep popping up on what to do or say or think. No kidding. You are for real!
Saturday, September 5, 2020 at 7:38 pm.
You are a Mighty Spirit Being far above anything or spiritual beings. It is sad how we confuse Your Spirit Being with spiritualism or psychic world.
Saturday, September 5, 2020 at 7:45 pm.
And with that You are leading me to create a brand-new file on drive C: and name it ‘The Tribe Journal from 2020 on’.
I will now see about downloading Photoshop. From now on I will save all Photoshop Files on the new folder in Drive C: along with the Word files.
Sunday, September 6, 2020 at 12:09 am.
I just checked my drives. Wow! All cleaned up! Adobe Support came through at last! Thank You. I will now work on the new folder in Drive C: with minimal data input.
Sunday, September 6, 2020 at 7:01 am.
Perhaps is just my mood. I am not hurting, just uncomfortable and down and out. You know how and why my body gets out of balance. Maybe what I eat but I don’t think so anymore.
Help me to abide in You under all circumstances You see fit to come my way. Your material blessings on waking up? So much food and goodies I have not enough room to store, and yet?
What is the use? O my Master! It is not the material that could ever satisfy my spirit being. And my body reacts with whatever does not satisfy me spiritually.
Sunday, September 6, 2020 at 7:42 am.
Big difference. I am not consumed by a what but by a Who. That is my Master what You are clarifying in my mind for Your Tribe’s benefit. Definition of spiritualism. Quote:
spiritualism (ˈspɪrɪtjʊəˌlɪzəm)
n
Sunday, September 6, 2020 at 3:37 am.
You know that I am consumed with You. A Mighty Spirit Being beyond human comprehension. You are not spiritual. You are Spirit.
Sunday, September 6, 2020 at 5:49 pm.
Finally! An angel named Stanimir V in the chat support resolved the login problem I been wrestling with for the last 2 or 3 days.
Sunday, September 6, 2020 at 10:14 pm.
I am still getting the unexpected crashes, but You have shown me how to recuperate quickly. I hate to feel smug about all You have resolve for me but I can’t help it. You know all about it.
Also, you continue to show me the futility of my attempts to get help. Only when I quit floundering around like a fish out of water You come through for me immediately.
Monday, September 7, 2020 at 4:19 am.
This is truly healthy excitement! O my Master! The way You have cleaned not only my act but all my peculiarities in my way to a healthy life in Your Presence.
Monday, September 7, 2020 at 6:49 am.
Thanks for sleep my Master! All things are now in order. You are now leading me to close and post the details of the moment.
Monday, September 7, 2020 at 1:31 pm.
Soon as I get it all together under Your leading, I shall post. I am almost there. I will brake now. Hopefully I finish before the day is over.
Monday, September 7, 2020 at 3:14 pm.
O but this is even better than great news! You are teaching me to communicate with people. Such skill is taught but I have never acquired it.
Monday, September 7, 2020 at 4:09 pm.
I will now continue with my task. If the computer crashes again, I am to reset it one more time. Each time it gets better and better. You are really in control of it all.
Over and out until next time!
Your love in my heart for all. thiaBasilia.


Sunday, August 30, 2020 at 6:00 am.
No matter what? You have empowered me to set my mind and heart on the spiritual faith, and worship or respect for Your Being and all that pertains to Your will and heart intent for my creation.
Sunday, August 30, 2020 at 10:43 am.
Surprise in the familiar posting procedure in WordPress.com. There is a new procedure without the option to revert to the familiar one I been using for a long time.
Ha! Perhaps there is no need for me to keep up with anything on my own. I must wait on You. I must learn to wait on You. Help me!
It is so easy to waste my time with my attempts to help myself heedlessly. All I manage to accomplish is frustration and waste of time, but!
Sunday, August 30, 2020 at 5:45 pm.
Time to soar high! Higher than the eagles soar to Him with Whom I have to do. The computer crashed at this moment. No repair.
Sunday, August 30, 2020 at 11:36 pm.
I woke up around 11 pm at the sound of my little friend’s voice. The new welcome screen. It all looks normal but! I fear the disastrous day is not over.
Monday, August 31, 2020 at 7:14 am.
Nay! I am doubting myself. And that is a good thing contrary to all believe not to be not good, but! You are revealing things to be not good as good for I used to call evil good and good evil.
Out of my lips came the words, “I don’t have to be always elated and feeling good. I am OK.” I got up to take care of chores. A working computer. The last day of this 8th month in the world’s calendar.
Why waste my time following mankind’s timelines? Why waste my time trying to figure You out when You clearly forbid me to do so?
Monday, August 31, 2020 at 8:23 am.
What a great way to end this disastrous moment in my NET world. There is no telling how You resolve it all despite my floundering like a fish out of water when disaster falls on me! HalleluYah!
Monday, August 31, 2020 at 2:55 pm.
Watching it all take place with amazing precision! You are blowing a cool breeze on me. The ISO is downloading nicely. I am no longer getting the no response error. The mouse is not jumping. Wow!
Monday, August 31, 2020 at 6:44 pm.
Big trouble! Computer crashed again! This time? The new ISO CD to the rescue after several fatal notices to repair the problem. How did You help me? I’ll record after I restart.
Monday, August 31, 2020 at 10:19 pm.
I will head for bed. Can’t keep my eyes opened. Two hours of sleep did me wonders. I know You are working on my painful body.
Tuesday, September 1, 2020 at 1:06 am.
The first day of the 9th month. You quickened the question that led me to Jeremiah 32: 27 Behold, I am the Master, the God of all flesh; is there anything too hard for Me?
Sitting up on this 4th flour, I watch all things with Your sight. The things that others do now are the same things I used to do.
Jeremiah 32: 33-44.
And they have turned their backs to Me and not their faces; though I taught them persistently, yet they would not listen and receive instruction.
But they set their abominations [of idol worship] in the house which is called by My Name to defile it.
And they built the high places [for worship] of Baal in the Valley of Ben-hinnom [son of Hinnom] to cause their sons and their daughters to pass through the fire [in worship also of and] to Molech–which I did not command them, nor did it come into My mind or heart that they should do this abomination, to cause Judah to sin. [Jer_7:30-31]
And now therefore thus says the Master, the God of Israel, concerning this city of which you say, It shall be delivered into the hand of the king of Babylon by sword and by famine and by pestilence:
Behold, I will gather them out of all countries to which I drove them in My anger and in My wrath and in great indignation; I will bring them again to this place, and I will make them dwell safely.
And they will be My people, and I will be their God.
And I will give them one heart and one way, that they may [reverently] fear Me forever for the good of themselves and of their children after them.
And I will make an everlasting covenant with them: I will not turn away from following them to do them good, and I will put My [reverential] fear in their hearts, so that they will not depart from Me. [Jer_31:31-34]
Yes, I will rejoice over them to do them good, and I will plant them in this land assuredly and in truth with My whole heart and with My whole being.
For thus says the Master: As I have brought all this great evil upon this people, so will I bring upon them all the good that I have promised them.
And fields shall be bought in this land of which you say, It is desolate, without man or beast; it is given into the hands of the Chaldeans.
Men shall buy fields for money and shall sign deeds, seal them, and call witnesses in the land of Benjamin, in the places around Jerusalem, in the cities of Judah, in the cities of the hill country, in the cities of the lowland, and in the cities of the South (the Negeb), for I will cause them to be released from their exile, says the Master. End of quote.
Tuesday, September 1, 2020 at 5:00 am.
Master? All Your indications are for our blessed future, but! The present moment? You know it, I am about to cave in under the stress of pain and summer heat.
Luke 23:27-34
And there accompanied Yahushua a great multitude of the people, [including] women who bewailed and lamented Him.
For behold, the days are coming during which they will say, Blessed (happy, fortunate, and N1to be envied) are the barren, and the wombs that have not borne, and the breasts that have never nursed [babies]!
Then they will begin to say to the mountains, Fall on us! and to the hills, Cover (conceal, hide) us!
For if they do these things when the timber is green, what will happen when it is dry?
Two others also, who were criminals, were led away to be executed with Him. [Isa_53:12]
And when they came to the place which is called The Skull [Latin: Calvary; Hebrew: Golgotha], there they crucified Him, and [along with] the criminals, one on the right and one on the left.
And Yahushua prayed, Father, forgive them, for they know not what they do. And they divided His garments and distributed them by casting lots for them. [Psa_22:18] End of quote.
You are with and for me. I will not be to the shame as a quitter. On the contrary Your purpose for my journey living in Your Presence is to impact the world with Your work to transform me.
Tuesday, September 1, 2020 at 8:49 am.
Living in Your Presence is not at all the peaches and cream flavor in the physical, but the spiritual flavor of the fruits and flowers You hold in my heart? Wow! No comparison.
Your love in my heart for all. thiaBasilia.

Wednesday, February 19, 2020 at 3:47 am.
The way You are leading me from the onset of my journey in Your sight is about You and Your intent for our creation.
Wednesday, February 19, 2020 at 4:02 am.
You have me now to finish with the posting I started before You sent me to sleep. Then? I’ll work on a new graphic You set in my mind about the family.
Wednesday, February 19, 2020 at 10:50 pm.
I am not letting get to me. I know You’ll show me the way to go that I cannot find. From the graphics to the book formatting nothing is working as I would like it to work. I’ll try the bed. I wait on You.
Thursday, February 20, 2020 at 3:33 am.
My body is not colloborating. There is much to do but I am stuck with the book format. How the styles got all messup, beats me? I’ll take a break. I wait on You.
Thursday, February 20, 2020 at 11:47 am.
I slept for a couple hours. On waking up I noticed the NET was working fast. It came to me to call Microsoft support for help with the problems.
I know exactly what needs to be done thanks to the instructions You send my way. But why did all of this happen? The support tech needed the few in between remarks made about Your strenght always availing me.
Thursday, February 20, 2020 at 9:47 pm.
O my Master! You are healing my body without drugs! You are teaching me all about how to regulate the sugar and salt intake for my body’s stability. So today?
Friday, February 21, 2020 at 1:47 am to 4:40 am.
And so, the saga goes, my Master. All could be a disaster. but You turn it well to be for me, for Thee. Underneath Your everlasting arms sleep takes over to set me free from weeping to be.
I’m going on this day by the power of Your love, wisdom, and Your everlasting faithfulness.
Your promises are the only sound matter to grab on go on. Quote:
Isaiah 55:1-13
“Oh everyone who thirsts, come to the waters. And you who have no silver, come, buy and eat. Come, buy wine and milk without silver and without price.
“Why do you weigh out silver for what is not bread, and your labour for what does not satisfy? Listen, listen to Me, and eat what is good, and let your being delight itself in fatness.
“Incline your ear, and come to Me. Hear, so that your being lives. And let Me make an everlasting covenant with you, the trustworthy kindnesses of Dawiḏ.
“See, I have given Him as a witness to the people, a Leader and a Commander for the people.
“See, a nation you do not know you shall call, and a nation who does not know you run to you, because of Yahuweh your Elohim, and the Set-apart One of Yisrael, for He has adorned you.”
Seek Yahuweh while He is to be found, call on Him while He is near. Let the wrong forsake his way, and the unrighteous man his thoughts.
Let him return to Yahuweh, who has compassion on him, and to our Elohim, for He pardons much.
“For My thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways My ways,” declares Yahuweh.
“For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are My ways higher than your ways, and My thoughts than your thoughts.
“For as the rain comes down, and the snow from the heavens, and do not return there, but water the earth, and make it bring forth and bud, and give seed to the sower and bread to the eater, so is My Word that goes forth from My mouth – it does not return to Me empty, but shall do what I please, and shall certainly accomplish what I sent it for.
“For with joy you go out, and with peace you are brought in – the mountains and the hills break forth into singing before you, and all the trees of the field clap the hands.
“Instead of the thorn the cypress comes up, and instead of the nettle the myrtle comes up. And it shall be to Yahuweh for a name, for an everlasting sign which is not cut off.” End of quote.
And with this note, I am to close and post. For the quote says it all better than what I could ever with such authority myself done and plan.
As You are restoring my family You are restoring all families scattered in the four corners of the earth ignorant of their rightful identity with You.
I’ll have the whole day ahead to let You lead the way on whatever I am to do the go to honor and proclaim Your name to be Sovereign.
Enjoy! Deploy!
Much love to all. thiaBasilia.

This subject came to me on this midnight. It is the experience of my moment while I am enjoying Your victory in my life as well as Your unbroken fellowship.
Tuesday, February 18, 2020 at 7:38 am
O my Master! Words. Same words with different implications. I often wondered the mention of the word ‘fear’ in the Scriptures. Fear not. Fear the Master.
fear (fɪə)
n
vb
There are two meanings among 13 that answers my question: 3. awe; reverence: fear of God. 10. (tr) to revere; respect.
Therefore? All other fears shall vanish giving way to the awe; reverence; respect due to You alone first and uppermost.

Now? The tide has turned big time! HalleluYah! O my Master! You getting to Your people’s heart and mind. Every post here lately? Your people are responding. Will now spend the day creating a graphic on this matter.
Tuesday, February 18, 2020 at 11:38 pm.
Just a few minutes to midnight. Much accomplished today, but! The best? One of my stranged children, Daniel, got in touch with me with love and gratitude. Thanks, my Master!
Quote:
Wait. Relax. No matter what you see, feel, and think, I am harmonizing all the inharmonious circumstances of your life.
Wait. O thiaBasilia—O Child Of My Heart? Wait. You will soon see My Deliverance!
Pause. Reflect. Your gaze set on Me, wait with hope. It is as written in Romans 8
Enjoy! Deploy!
Much love to all. thiaBasilia.

I’m sitting here reflecting more than just thinking. Reminiscing on my doings of the past. I cannot remember any time when I was sure of who I was, but! I flounder the waters of high achievement, for what?
Goodness sake! Tomorrow? The sorrow! What sorrow? The sorrow of keeping up all of that for that tomorrow that might never come.
No thank you Mr. Achievement. No thank you, Mr. Success. I value my mental sanity the best! O my Master! Whatever possessed me to swim like a fish in a whim to visit muddy waters?
The human nature’s ways? O mine! Extensive realm for comedy skits calling quits. Yeah, for sure! Once we begin to see the comical ways of our human nature, we call it quits, but! Quote:
Song of Solomon 2:7
[He said] I charge you, O you daughters of Jerusalem, by the gazelles or by the hinds of the field [which are free to follow their own instincts] that you not try to stir up or awaken [my] love until it pleases.
Futility! All our human efforts to quit with our wit’s power? Chasing after the wind and feeding on it. That’s what my human nature chased and fed on most of my life.
O my Master! You surely made that knowledge god like dust under Your feet. That’s how You convinced me to quit. It’s written,
Ecclesiastes 1:17-18
And I gave my mind to know [practical] wisdom and to discern [the character of] madness and folly [in which men seem to find satisfaction]; I perceived that this also is a searching after wind and a feeding on it. [1Th 5:21]
For in much [human] wisdom is much vexation, and he who increases knowledge increases sorrow.
Sunday, February 9, 2020 at 5:06 pm
I couldn’t hear I was an educated fool until my turn to quit my foolishness, to quit my wits came by the power of Your love for me. It never fails. It always avails. 5:35 pm bed? Up at 10:02 pm.
Sunday, February 9, 2020 at 10:36 pm
You know when I sit. You know when I stand. You know what I am going to say or think before I either say it or think it. I’m tankful that You didn’t destroy me a long time ago.
Ha! that’s what You are leading me to understand right now. Wow! Through the ages that remnant now populates the four corners of the earth. Wow!
Monday, February 10, 2020 at 12:38 am.
O my Master! there is an ominous silence at this midnight hour. Strange. Just as strange as my understanding of Your words. Going over again through Your words given to Your prophet Isaiah makes me realize how strange it all is.
Hope? There is always hope. But all things must happen at Your exact decreed time. Is 2020 Your decreed time to set us free from the hopeless state and condition of our souls?
Monday, February 10, 2020 at 2:29 pm.
The NET does not work at this hour. I needed to test the graphic. So, I inserted here. It’s just not what I sense it to be. Back to work on it.
Tuesday, February 11, 2020 at 12:48 am.
Problems, difficulties in this world are inevitable, but! I don’t need to worry about such; You have overcome the world for me.
Tuesday, February 11, 2020 at 11:14 pm.
But! You know all about it, my Master. My body still on the mend. The winter still bitter. No visitors. No calls. Abundance and lack hand in hand. The Internet not working most of the time. I keep messing up in the graphics because is hard to see the small monitor’s screen. Besides the lack of a good graphic’s card.
This morning I unstalled Photoshop 15 to see if that would solve my problem with the brushes. After the uninstall I had to restart at 9:53 am.
From there on I struggled to correct the problem to no avail. Finally? I realized my latest version of Photoshop is 2 versions behind. I started the update, but it’s stuck because of the faulty Internet connection. Went to sleep around 7 pm to 10 pm.
Tuesday, February 11, 2020 at 11:38 pm.
You gave me the sense of well-being. No need to complain. No need for all to be the best. I can be and do quite well under the worst. How blessed I am!
Wednesday, February 12, 2020 at 12:45 pm.
Update restart 12:46 pm. Back on all up to date. So is my life. O my Master! You bless me so! I slept from midnight to about 1:30 am. I was still sleepy but I thoughen up waiting for the NET to connect. That didn’t happen until around 4:40 am.
Soon as the NET connected, I called support to help me with the Photoshop update. All well now in that department. Actually? All super-well.
I worked until around 10 am. Finally, I crashed in bed around 10 am.
Wednesday, February 12, 2020 at 1:12 pm.
I smiled big time! I remember little Johny and his grandma taking a strol in the snow covered park. O my Master! You sustain me with humor. The tale:
Grandma says: “You see lil Johny how beautifully God painted the world for us?”
Quickly lil Johny responded: “Yeah, grandma, and He did it all with His left hand!”
Grandma: “O, what makes you say that my son?”
Lil Johny: “I learned last Sunday in Sunday School that the Savior sits on God’s right hand!”
Are not our grown-up conclusions on the reading and stydying the written words? Our human minds can only conclude on the actual meaning of words.
You really, really are holding the whole creation plus our own individual selves in Your hand. Your working right hand that is! Your point?
Hope in death is now the matter You are bringing to light on this 2020 year. And? Yes! Our Redeemer sits at the right hand of the Father interceding for us. He is our Advocate.
I have read, studied, agreed with many conclusions on the the following long chapter, but! it’s not until today that You, my Master, are shinning Your light on it.
In Your light I now see Your purpose for sharing my state of well-being aloof from the cares of this world. Indeed, there is hope in death. The death to the things of this world. Quote:
Messiah Our Advocate
1 John 2:1-29
MY LITTLE children, I write you these things so that you may not violate the Almighty’s law and sin. But if anyone should sin, we have an Advocate (One Who will intercede for us) with the Father–[it is] Yahushua Messiah [the all] righteous [upright, just, Who conforms to the Father’s will in every purpose, thought, and action].
And He [that same Yahushua Himself] is the propitiation (the atoning sacrifice) for our sins, and not for ours alone but also for [the sins of] the whole world.
And this is how we may discern [daily, by experience] that we are coming to know Him [to perceive, recognize, understand, and become better acquainted with Him]: if we keep (bear in mind, observe, practice) His teachings (precepts, commandments).
Whoever says, I know Him [I perceive, recognize, understand, and am acquainted with Him] but fails to keep and obey His commandments (teachings) is a liar, and the Truth [of the Gospel] is not in him.
But he who keeps (treasures) His Word [who bears in mind His precepts, who observes His message in its entirety], truly in him has the love of and for the Almighty been perfected (completed, reached maturity). By this we may perceive (know, recognize, and be sure) that we are in Him:
Whoever says he abides in Him ought [as a personal debt] to walk and conduct himself in the same way in which He walked and conducted Himself.
Beloved, I am writing you no new commandment, but an old commandment which you have had from the beginning; the old commandment is the message which you have heard [the doctrine of salvation through Messiah].
Yet I am writing you a new commandment, which is true (is realized) in Him and in you, because the darkness (N1moral blindness) is clearing away and the true Light (N2the revelation of God in Christ) is already shining.
Whoever says he is in the Light and [yet] hates his brother [Christian, born-again child of the Almighty his Father] is in darkness even until now.
Whoever loves his brother [believer] abides (lives) in the Light, and in It or in him there is no occasion for stumbling or cause for error or sin.
But he who hates (detests, despises) his brother [in Messiah] is in darkness and walking (living) in the dark; he is straying and does not perceive or know where he is going, because the darkness has blinded his eyes.
I am writing to you, little children, because for His name’s sake your sins are forgiven [pardoned through His name and on account of confessing His name].
I am writing to you, fathers, because you have come to know (recognize, be aware of, and understand) Him Who [has existed] from the beginning. I am writing to you, young men, because you have been victorious over the wicked [one]. I write to you, boys (lads), because you have come to know (recognize and be aware) of the Father.
I write to you, fathers, because you have come to know (recognize, be conscious of, and understand) Him Who [has existed] from the beginning. I write to you, young men, because you are strong and vigorous, and the Word of the Almighty is [always] abiding in you (in your hearts), and you have been victorious over the wicked one.
Do not love or cherish the world or the things that are in the world. If anyone loves the world, love for the Father is not in him.
For all that is in the world–the lust of the flesh [craving for sensual gratification] and the lust of the eyes [greedy longings of the mind] and the pride of life [assurance in one’s own resources or in the stability of earthly things]–these do not come from the Father but are from the world [itself].
And the world passes away and disappears, and with it the forbidden cravings (the passionate desires, the lust) of it; but he who does the will of the Almighty and carries out His purposes in his life abides (remains) forever.
Boys (lads), it is the last time (hour, the end of this age). And as you have heard that the antiMessiah [he who will oppose Messiah in the guise of Messiah] is coming, even now many antiMessiahs have arisen, which confirms our belief that it is the final (the end) time.
They went out from our number, but they did not [really] belong to us; for if they had been of us, they would have remained with us. But [they withdrew] that it might be plain that they all are not of us.
But you have been anointed by [you hold a sacred appointment from, you have been given an unction from] the Holy One, and you all know [the Truth] or you know all things.
I write to you not because you are ignorant and do not perceive and know the Truth, but because you do perceive and know it, and [know positively] that nothing false (no deception, no lie) is of the Truth.
Who is [such a] liar as he who denies that Yahushua is the Messiah? He is the antiMessiah (the antagonist of Messiah), who [habitually] denies and refuses to acknowledge the Father and the Son.
No one who [habitually] denies (disowns) the Son even has the Father. Whoever confesses (acknowledges and has) the Son has the Father also.
As for you, keep in your hearts what you have heard from the beginning. If what you heard from the first dwells and remains in you, then you will dwell in the Son and in the Father [always].
And this is what He Himself has promised us–the life, the eternal [life].
I write this to you with reference to those who would deceive you [seduce and lead you astray].
But as for you, the anointing (the sacred appointment, the unction) which you received from Him abides [permanently] in you; [so] then you have no need that anyone should instruct you. But just as His anointing teaches you concerning everything and is true and is no falsehood, so you must abide in (live in, never depart from) Him [being rooted in Him, knit to Him], just as [His anointing] has taught you [to do].
And now, little children, abide (live, remain permanently) in Him, so that when He is made visible, we may have and enjoy perfect confidence (boldness, assurance) and not be ashamed and shrink from Him at His coming.
If you know (perceive and are sure) that He [Messiah] is [absolutely] righteous [conforming to the Father’s will in purpose, thought, and action], you may also know (be sure) that everyone who does righteously [and is therefore in like manner conformed to the divine will] is born (begotten) of Him [the Almighty].

Need to edit and format before I post. Right now? Don’t feel too good. Will break for a bit. Back at 4:40 pm. Finished editing. As I edited the chapter You opened my eyes to see.
Thank goodness! You have set me free from my carnal past. No need to rehash words without knowledge anymore. Experience not words is what matters here.
Your Presence in my heart and mind was never experienced as I am experiencing now. You are so real! Indeed! There is hope in death. Death to the ways of this world.
Enjoy! Deploy!
Much love to all. thiaBasilia.
Hahaha! Humor instead of anger. Why should I worry about the hard times coming? Behold! You are in control! In control of it all, including my black chocolate, that’s for sure!
The truth? Ain’t worried about anything anymore, but! Black chocolate? O well! It’s doing me good. I need to remind Ahmad to get it for me, he forgets, You know it my Master.
Anyhow, yesterday? Blustering winds whistling out there. Rain pouring down, but it came to me to remind to Ahmad about my black chocolate, never thinking he would be out there in the weather. So? The scene.
“Quickly! Quickly! I am in the rain, Basilia!” “My black chocolate! MY BLACK CHOCOLATE!!!” “WHAT? I’M IN THE RAIN!!!” He shouted at me and hung up! The nerve! Rain and no black chocolate for me. Can you believe it?
Sure enough, because of my inopportune call? He didn’t show up last night. I waited for him until 11 pm. While getting under my covers? I burst out laughing! I realized the ridiculousness of it all!
Humor instead of anger it sure is my motto now. Any other time I would have been angry, anxious, cry, cry, and cry in despair!
No more! No more anger. No more anxiety, and no more tears. You done repaired the broken lachrymal gland in my mind
What a Fixer Upper You are my Beloved Master! truly? Your banner over me is love? Is it so for Ahmad and the rest, my Master?
To find out the Master’s response? You must read until the end of this fun funny accounts of my doings. On to the original post’s content.
Thursday, February 6, 2020 at 6:55 am.
“Poor Basilia!” Ahmad’s forever annoying this truly poor soul, but! O well, maybe he knows more than he lets on for me to think about it. Me? O bless my heart. Devoted 100% each time.
Thursday, February 6, 2020 at 8:03 am.
You are now putting a hearty laugh at my own ridiculousness. Humor instead of anger is my gifted motto. I left my recording here. Went on to my fun jolly holly gifted graphics skill to fill.
Friday, February 7, 2020 at 7:50 am.
O well! I just used those words referring to Your Creator sole right. In my thinking? I am not creating anything that You have not already created.
Of course, many souls realize and live by that, but! for the most? Humankind makes heroes of anyone gifted to reproduce whatever You gift to some soul to reproduce.
(Wondering if I should sneak a delicious chunk of chocolate in my mouth? Problem: one little chunk leads to another and another until I get sick! Help, my Master HELP!)
Slept until Friday, February 7, 2020 at 2:13 am. Sleep again until 5:53 am.
Friday, February 7, 2020 at 2:09 pm.
Yesterday I published about The Great Tribulation in the main site, but somehow, I did not publish in the rest of the sites. Now? The Net is not working again. I can’t publish. I wait on You.
Saturday, February 8, 2020 at 4:27 am.
One more 7th day of rest resting on You all the way. No kidding, in You I live and have my being. I slept for a few hours. Got up around 2:30 am. Went ahead with the posting of the Great Tribulation.
Saturday, February 8, 2020 at 10:02 pm.
O my Master! You have dried my tears of anxiety. You have steadied my steps. You have given me Your strength to overcome gloom or glee! Awesome are Your doings in my life as anyone shall see.
Hahaha! Humor instead of anger. Why should I worry about the hard times coming? Behold! You are in control! In control of it all, including my black chocolate, that’s for sure!
The truth? Ain’t worried about anything anymore, but! Black chocolate? O well! It’s doing me good. I need to remind Ahmad to get it for me, he forgets, You know it my Master.

“O thiaBasilia—O Child Of My Heart? You really are a child of My heart.
You delight My Being!
Even when in the midst of the rain and pain at times you despair.
At times you burst your angry tirades at Me, even then, you delight My Being!
My Spirit bears witness that you are My genuine child who knows Me as the Father that I am to you.
Rejoice, My precious child! I am so delighted to sup with you.
I am so delighted to extend My scepter unto My Queen instead of letting you perish like anyone not so cherished.
I am so looking forward for your humorous escapades.
Those escapades are My blessings to you and to all!
Go on! Let go! Be still! I am at work no matter what is your fill.
I love you with an everlasting love, My precious dove.
And yes, it is so for Ahmad and the rest.
It’s all for your best!” End of quote.
Sunday, February 9, 2020 at 6:21 am.
Master? I pray You let Your readers see how You lead me to improve the graphic’s skill You have gifted to me. You have the whole post’s content encased in those graphics. Pray for You to let those readers see what the graphics are about and enjoy the same with me.
Enjoy! Deploy!
Much love to all. thiaBasilia.
Wednesday, February 5, 2020 at 3:24 am.
O my Master! Your response to search my heart? You have so done. You have so continue to do.
Wednesday, February 5, 2020 at 4:11 am.
Oops! And I was so smug writing and thinking that as I look around the blessings of 2020 are proclaiming but! The great tribulation. Not a mention of it much less preparing for it.
Ha! what about me? Isn’t it what I am doing? O my Master! You are so real in my life. Just like I did with my children You do to me. I wouldn’t let them get away with anything; neither do You with me.
Wednesday, January 29, 2020 at 9:00 pm.
Help me my Master to accept these things that are continuously aggravating me. The Net. The lack of visits or even phone calls from Ahmad and family?
Thursday, January 30, 2020 at 9:03 am.
I slept on and off from 9:45 pm to around 2:30 am this morning. I am not bent out of shape but, the cold is affecting my sleep. I just can’t get warm. You know it , my Master.
Thursday, January 30, 2020 at 10:54 pm.
You know how rough it is when all one’s sins pop to torment one’s soul; in the midst of such torment one wonders why You allow such evil after Your promise not to let evil torment one anymore?
Thursday, January 30, 2020 at 11:14 pm.
Ah! My welcomed little friend. Up! He turns on the heat.
Friday, January 31, 2020 at 1:13 am.
Midnight came. Me? Reflecting on Your questions. You took me back all the way to that place and moment of my birth. That happened over 80 years ago, but!
You are demonstrating to me how from my birth until this day You have assigned my caretakers. Why my suffering? Your response:
“O thiaBasilia—O Child Of My Heart? I gave you a mighty man for a father to take care of you. Didn’t you rebel against your father?
Now, My child, think back. At your father’s death, didn’t I place you under the care of his older son? But you rebelled against him as well.”
You send me to sleep from 2:10 am to 4:12 am
Friday, January 31, 2020 at 5:04 am.
Why my life’s sufferings? Because I was a person who resists any authority, control, or tradition. You brought me back all the way to the beginning of my rebellion. In retrospect?
CHAPTER 3
A HEAVENLY WHIPPING
This chapter is about the end of the darkest period of Thia’s life and the trip to Vegas. Such trip was the heavenly whipping that caught her attention!
A long time ago the Scriptures were written for us nowadays. And under the leading of the Holy Spirit we are supposed to learn, apply, and experience the Scriptures in our lives.
For the incidents that occurred to each individual in the Bible are real. And those incidents were written for an example to us.
“Alas!” sighs Thia, “I did not allow the Holy Spirit to lead me. And I had read the following Scriptures under my own leading many of times; but, I never did think to apply them to myself.
I thought those Scriptures were about something to be applied only to Peter or any of the old-time people.
I did not think that the Scriptures written in the Psalms or about Peter or about anybody else in those days applied to myself nowadays, but they do!
If only I would have put my name instead of Simon Peter or anybody else, it would have been perfectly valid. Alas, I didn’t, therefore, I suffered in ignorance.” For it is written,
Luke 22:31-34
Simon, Simon (Peter), listen! Satan has asked excessively that (all of) you be given up to him—out of the power and keeping of Almighty Yahuwah— that he might sift (all of) you like grain, (Job 1:6-12; Amos 9:9)
But I have prayed especially for you (Peter) that your (own) faith may not fail; and when you yourself have turned again, strengthen and establish your brethren.
And (Simon Peter) said to Him, Master, I am ready to go with You both to prison and to death.
But Yahushua said, I tell you, Peter, before a (single) cock shall crow this day, you will three times (utterly) deny that you know Me.
Psalms 109:30,31 (LBV)
But I will give repeated thanks to Almighty Yahuwah, praising him to everyone. For he stands beside the poor and hungry to save them from their enemies.
Psalms 110:1. (LBV)
JEHOVAH SAID to my Master the Messiah, “Rule as my regent— I will subdue your enemies and make them bow low before you” End of quote
But Thia was totally in the dark that such Scriptures applied also to herself, and she suffered a period of utter darkness in ignorance of her Savior’s faithfulness to pray and to stand by to save her.
And Thia was ignorant also of her Savior’s power to subdue and to make bow low before Him the enemies of fear and confusion which were Thia’s enemies.
Anyhow, in 1974 Thia had a mental breakdown. She fell into the trap of her enemies of fear and confusion and she was taken to the mental ward and given a dose of Terrazin that made her lose her mind for three days.
During the three days when she lost her mind, she had several visions and in those visions she had seen then, in 1974, everything that was happening to her now, in 1983.
And among those things happening to her now was the end of her second marriage which was the most exhilarating and emotionally violent decade of her life and the beginning of a relationship with a gentleman called “Mr. Coo.
At that time, in 1974, she did not even have an inkling that this gentleman, Mr. Coo, existed. Therefore, in her visions that year of 1974, she mistook him for her second husband at an older age, because at that period of time her second husband happened to have a striking resemblance to Mr. Coo.
But the man in her vision was not her husband at all, for in her vision she foresaw Mr. Coo as she found out at the appointed time of her life.
In her visions she also foresaw the trip to Vegas which she was about to undertake.
It was now 1983 and by then she had divorced from her second husband and she had forgotten all about those visions. Though that for a while after the breakdown she tried to figure out what she had seen, by 1983 she had given up trying to decipher what she foresaw in 1974, and she didn’t even think about it anymore.
Yet, nearing the end of that period of utter darkness and despair which she foresaw in 1974, and around the middle of 1983 when the roof cave in and she ran, she came to understand all those things that she had seen during those three days in which she had lost her mind back in 1974.
For the roof of her world’s castle began to cave in around July of 1983 and she panicked and ran about two months later, when she realized that her whole castle was tumbling down around October of 1983.
To begin with, her youngest daughter and her son-in-law were supposed to buy Thia’s house because Thia could not meet the mortgage payments.
Thia was awfully glad when the loan was approved for them to buy the house—around July.
But, to Thia’s utter disbelief, her son-in-law backed off the deal, and Thia was caught with three mortgage payments behind. Such was the first stage of the cave in!
At the time Thia was working for a pittance in Mr. Coo’s neighborhood bar. But in a desperate attempt to make money to catch up with the mortgage payments she switched work to a barroom that offered her more money.
Then she went back to work her Real Estate License plus she got a part-time job in a fabric store.
For Thia was desperately trying to make money not only to pay her mortgage payments but also for her car payments as well because she was also late with those; but it was too late.
There was no way to catch up with so much back-up. She was running herself to insanity and in vain.
And so, around the end of September or perhaps October of 1983 Thia decided to get roommates and work hard on Real Estate to make enough money to take care of the mortgage and the car payment without losing her sanity.
So, she quit the barroom altogether and the part-time job at the fabric store to dedicate herself to Real Estate completely.
However, to Thia’s utter shock, when she came in that day to the Real Estate Company with all her eggs in that one basket, determined and resolved to make money, her Real Estate Manager called her to the office and Squoosh! every one of those freshly laid eggs.
Thia was told to hang it up for Real Estate was not productive for her or for them because of Thia’s emotional situation.
Thia was told that it was best that she would remove her license from the active list.
Such was the second and final stage to the cave in! Thia was shocked to numbness. Later on she confided,
“I have no recollection as to what I did at that immediate moment. But afterwards, for a little while, I refused to give up.
I purposed in my heart to run a good distance to make a lot of money, and from far away, rebuild my house, rebuild my life! …”
Thia decided to run to Vegas to make money in the casinos!
And Almighty Yahuwah, in His infinite mercy and wisdom, just watched Thia run. About those times Thia says,
In Thia’s vision of Almighty Yahuwah in 1974 Almighty Yahuwah stood up, just waiting for Thia to wear out and come to the end of Thia’s carnal affairs and willful ways.
The sad irony was that Thia’s conception of Almighty Yahuwah at the time of those visions, was a conception of power and power only, she never saw the tears of the loving Father through the prophet saying,
Quote:
Thia didn’t think about love at all. As far back as Thia could remember Thia had one thing in mind and that was power!
Mind and will power that is! Love didn’t enter into Thia’s mind unless, one deserved to be loved because of one’s excellent ways.
Well, as things developed just about that time, right before Thia took off for Vegas, Mr. Coo’s wife died and Thia was exhorted to go and give to Mr. Coo her condolences.
Mr. Coo was Thia’s former employer. (Coo is not his legal name but Coo he was called from childhood on up and everybody in the business called him Coo or Mr. Coo.)
Now, Mr. Coo has always been a well-liked and respectable senior citizen with a heart of gold. And, of course, everybody knew how ill his wife had been for the past year or so, and it was common knowledge how much Mr. Coo loved his wife, how devoted he was to her and how well he took care of her.
Thia, personally, admired Mr. Coo greatly for that reason, and Thia longed, in many occasions, to have a husband like him.
Nevertheless, it never occurred to Thia to make any advances to Mr. Coo. Besides, Mr. Coo was so preoccupied with his wife that, for a while, when Thia had started working at his place only a few months back, Mr. Coo did not even know that Thia was working for him.
For Thia was hired by one of Mr. Coo’s regular workers who didn’t feel like working for a while and who didn’t want to disturb Mr. Coo with her resignation.
Then, when Mr. Coo realized that Thia was working for him, he was outwardly spiteful to Thia.
Also, to top Mr. Coo’s spitefulness, Thia was only working for him for a pittance in comparison with what she needed to earn.
So, when Thia decided to attempt to make enough money to meet the mortgage payments, she went to work for somebody else.
In fact, at the time of his wife’s death, Thia was still working for one of Mr. Coo’s competitors and she had no intentions to go and offer any condolences to Mr. Coo at all.
But a common friend of Thia and Mr. Coo insisted that Thia should go, and Thia went. Because, at that time Thia was intoxicated most of the time, and Thia did things just to keep her from doing nothing.
Shortly after Mr. Coo’s wife was buried Thia had quit all her jobs, the one at Mr. Coo’s competitor and the one at the fabric store. And since she felt rejected by the Real Estate industry, she was on her way to Vegas—to the land of shattered fortunes and dreams.
But Thia was determined to make her own way. Yes, her car was packed and she was on her way to Vegas. Yet, I guess like a zombie she went to give her condolences to Mr. Coo, and she wound up giving a date to Mr. Coo.
Well, that date set her trip back for about a week or two for Mr. Coo took a liking to Thia and felt sorry for her. And the day when Thia decided to take off, Mr. Coo begged her not to go, but she had made up her mind, and she took off anyhow. For she was determined to rebuild her own life without anybody’s help, most specially without the help from a man.
Even though she didn’t want his help, Mr. Coo offered it and he told her to call him during her trip and let him know how she was getting along.
On her way to Vegas she stopped to visit her first Bible teacher, Jean, whom she had known and trusted for several years. Jean tried desperately to stop Thia from going to Vegas, even reminding Thia what the Bible says about follies and such. But in this period of her life, almost a whole year during which period she have been intoxicated most of the time, it did not occur to Thia that Almighty Yahuwah was not with her.
As far as Thia was concerned Almighty Yahuwah was closer to her than He was to most regular Christians, and she felt justified following her own inclinations for she did not trust any Christian, except for Jean. In spite of Thia’s condition, Jean did not give up on Thia. She was unable to convince Thia about the trouble ahead, but she did not reject Thia, nor did she quit showing love and friendship for her.
Regardless of Jean’s objections Thia continued on her journey though. She stopped to call Mr. Coo in Houston, and after she talked to him, and learned that he really wanted her to come back, she felt somehow weak about continuing the trip. So, she went in the lounge of the hotel from where she had made the call to Mr. Coo and she had one drink.
She finished that one drink and with doubtful feelings she got in the car and started on her way again only to take the wrong route. On top of that the highway patrol stopped her because she was speeding and wobbling. They accused her of drinking and searched her car for the alcohol. She was not totally innocent, but, “My goodness!” she said, “I am not carrying alcohol in the car!” (not this time anyhow).
Thia was horribly embarrassed for they took her in to take the alcohol test! Fortunately, she passed the test and did not go to jail. “Oh the beasts!” she thought to herself, “Why don’t they go to do some kind of useful work like defending the battered woman and the abused children instead of relishing their wicked selves and harassing poor souls like me!” For Thia was still ignorant of the Holy Scriptures. She did not know the Scriptures written by the apostle Peter under the inspiration of the Holy Spirit which say,
For Almighty Yahuwah’s sake, OBEY every law of your government: those of the king as head of the state, 14 and those of the king’s officers, for he has sent them to PUNISH ALL who do wrong, and to honor those who do right. I Peter 2:13,14. (LBV)
So, grumbling and complaining against the patrolmen she continued on with renewed determination and by night fall she arrived at what she thought to be Vegas, Nevada, her destination. But, to her utter consternation she had arrived at Vegas, New Mexico!
It was late at night when she arrived at Vegas, New Mexico, so, she found a place to park and slept in her car. The next day she took off again and finally made it to Vegas, Nevada. By this time she was scared, discouraged and flat broke. In her despair, she called Mr. Coo and asked him to lend her some money to come back to New Orleans. Immediately, Mr. Coo wired the necessary money for Thia to come back.
Thia picked up the money at the Western Union station and then she decided to check in at a hotel to freshen up, catch up with some sleep. She figured that she could then start on the way back the following day.
But once she was settled in the hotel, she figured that as long as she was there, she might as well do what she came there to do anyhow, and that was, to look for a job in the casinos.
Thia figured she could investigate the job market, perhaps secure a job, go back to New Orleans and pack things up, and then come back to live in Vegas to make piles of money.
Almighty Yahuwah, in His infinite mercy, provided two young men who were staying at the hotel, for Thia to be escorted in the hunt for a job. That night they went from casino to casino. These young men wise Thia up on things to watch out for. “Prostitution is legal in this part of town and it is common for black pimps to solicit white woman.” They informed Thia. It was appalling to her, but she had re-determined to hunt for a job, so the hunt continued.
They found out that you have to join the union in order to work in most casinos. So, Thia decided to get all the information about the union and find out what would cost to join it. She figured she could do all of that early in the morning the very next day and start out to New Orleans in the afternoon. She filled up her car with gasoline. And they all returned to the hotel and retired to their respective rooms.
Early in the morning the next day she loaded her car. The young men drew her a map to hunt for the Union building. She gave them a ride to their work, and she started out on her way to the Union office. It was too early for any offices to be opened. She decided to go in one of the casinos to eat breakfast and wait for the offices to open.
On her way to the food counter she figured that there was no harm in playing $5.00 in the slot machine. “Perhaps I could win some money to pay Mr. Coo for the loan.” She thought as she stuck a quarter in one of the machines.
Automatically, she stuck another quarter. The machine fed her back a few quarters. She stuck those quarters back. The machine gave her a good win.
So, she began to stick one quarter after another, and another, and another, and another, and another, ‘till, there was not even one more quarter left.
That was some thirteen hours later after she had won and lost better than $1000.00 including every penny that Mr. Coo had kindly wired her for her return to New Orleans!
As Thia relates her story she says, “There was another lady next to me doing the same thing which I was doing. There was a continual pulling of that handle without ceasing.
“We never took a break. I never ate breakfast, or lunch, or supper. My hands were sore from all that pulling and black from the dirt in the handle.
“Never once did I think about the time, in fact I didn’t think of anything at all. I was fascinated with that machine. The ringing of all those quarters in every win was like a charm that hypnotized me into a compulsion that I had never experienced before.
“It was exhilarating, and exciting, and fun! I laughed, and laughed, and laughed so much that my stomach muscles were as sore as my hands.
“And when the last quarter was gone, I still laughed for I did not realized what I had done `till I stepped outside.
It was nighttime. The twinkling lights of every casino in that strip were twinkling with incredible mischievousness. The night was dark as a background for the myriad of twinkling mischievous little lights.
“And then, suddenly! The laugh died within me! The monstrous reality rose in front of me and I gasped in panic! In a brief moment the spectrum of 1974 flashed in front of me and I realized that what I saw back in 1974 in those days that I was out of my mind in a Terrazin trip was exactly what I was going through at that very moment.
“And, at that very instant, I realized also that the man that I saw in those visions, the man who I thought to be my husband at an older age, that man was not my husband at all. That man that I saw then was none other but Mr. Coo, my new friend.
“I was just about 2,000 miles away from home without a nickel in my pocket for I gambled even my last quarter and, I was completely alone! For I had betrayed every relationship in my life even to my new friend Mr. Coo.
“I stood there. For a brief moment I was simply petrified. And then, I began to walk. My feet were heavy, and my whole body felt like giving in under a heavy load. I made my way to the automobile. I unlocked the door got in and just sat there behind the steering wheel.
“My panic gave way to numbness. I was numb. I could not think about anything or feel any emotions. I just sat there. After a while, my reasoning power returned somehow and I thought, `Now, what to do? Perhaps a phone call if only I had a quarter!…
“It was then when I saw the change in my cup holder by the driver’s seat. I scooped it all up and counted it. All of a sudden, I perked up a bit for I had 98 cents! I was not completely broke, after all. `Miracle of miracles!’ I thought, `Almighty Yahuwah must still be with me. I can make it!’
“I started the car and began to drive away. But just before I got out of the parking lot there was a black man waving his hand. I thought that he was some kind of parking lot attendant or a valet or something like that. Therefore, I stopped.
“The man came over to my car, and I rolled down my window to find out what was the matter. The man bend over to my car window and said, `Are you going to your hotel, sugar?’
“Quickly I remembered how those two young men had warned me about black pimps, so, I rolled up my window and sped up my car. My heart began to beat fast, I remembered everything and forgot everything at the same time!
“It was a vivid recollection of how I felt in 1974 right before I woke up from that 3-day Terrazin trip in which I had embarked at the time they committed me to the mental ward when I had the mental breakdown.
“It was a vivid recollection of how I felt then when I ran to my Heavenly Father and said, `I don’t ever want to be separated from You again.’ And at that moment I became aware of what it was that I had run from scared stiff out of my bones in my visions of 1974.
“It was at that moment when I found out the awfulness which I couldn’t remember when I woke up from that awful Terrazin trip in 1974. It was such awfulness which I had given up even trying to think about any longer.
“I sped out of the parking lot and I drove like crazy. Then, gradually, I slowed down and began to regain some composure. I figured, `Late as it is I better find me a place where I can rest.’
“And as I tried to figure out where to go or where to stay I realized that I hardly had enough money to pay for a hotel, `Ninety eight cents!’ I sighed.
“Sleeping in the car was not new to me but now, I was scared out of my wits! I remembered the two young men at the hotel, but I was lost and had no idea how to get to the hotel.
“And from the depth of my being I uttered a prayer, `Oh Almighty Yahuwah, let me find that hotel! And let me remember what was the room number for those two young men. I have no other alternative but those two, Oh my Almighty Yahuwah!’
“As I uttered that prayer, I turned the corner and there, sticking right up above the other signs, was the sign for the hotel. I cried.
I drove in the hotel’s parking lot. I went straight to the young men’s room. I knocked on the door.
The young men were already asleep, but they woke up, and urged me to come in. `Don’t worry,’ they said. `It happens to most everybody that comes to Vegas in search of fortune. We are stuck, too, we had to hack our car and that’s why we are working to redeem it. But we have learned our lesson, as soon as we can redeem the car we are getting out of here. There is plenty work here, you are going to be alright.’
“`I believe so,’ I said, `but the first thing that I am going to do tomorrow is to go to that Church I saw in the Strip. I know that I must get to a Church before I do anything else.’
“They offered me a bed to sleep but I chose to sleep in my sleeping bag. Thank Almighty Yahuwah that I had a roof over my head I didn’t need a bed.
“The next day, after the farewells and good wishes, I made way to the Church of the Strip. Almighty Yahuwah truly is an Almighty Yahuwah of mercy.
`I need help.’ I said when I walked in. `I am a Christian and I have fallen, I am flat broke, I am from New Orleans, and I don’t know a soul in this town. I have not eaten in three days and I have lost all my money in the casinos.’
“Not too many more words were spoken. But, within five minutes, the young lady—the one who greeted me when I walked in— said,
`First things first. The first thing that we must do is to feed you and then we can clear our heads to figure out what to do.’
“She brought me to the restaurant across the street and fed me. Next, she told me to relax and have some quiet time with Almighty Yahuwah before we decided on what to do.
“`I could easily look for a temporary job to make money to go back to New Orleans.’ I said when the time came.
“`Could you call on friends? Perhaps you could raise the money through some friends. Do you have any friends that you could call on?’ She suggested. For she was not sure that I should stay there at all.
“`I have a lot of friends, but I have betrayed them all and I don’t think anybody would want to help me!’ I said in hopeless despair.
“`You would be surprised how friends can respond,’ she said, `use the phone and call. Do you recall any numbers?’
“`I need to call Mr. Coo,’ I said, `but there is no way that I am going to ask him for any more money, I’ll die first!’ I picked up the phone, and I dialed Mr. Coo’s number.
“`I am coming back towards the end of the week, I ran into some problems and I am staying a little longer.’ I said with a quick tone of voice to Mr. Coo.
“`What happened with the money I sent you? Never mind! Don’t tell me!’ He said like a wise old owl. Then after a pause he shouted at me, `I would like to send you some more money; but, I want you to get your butt right out of there now! not later. Do you have any money left to get out of there?’
“`For an answer I said `Just a minute, hold on for a minute. And I whispered to the young lady, `Where is the next big town on the way to New Orleans?’ Quickly, she consulted a map in the wall.
`Phoenix,’ she whispered back. `How far?’ I whispered again, trying to figure out how far my tank full of gas would carry me.
`About 300 miles,’ she whispered.
“And back on the phone I said to Mr. Coo, `Yeah, I can get out of here right now. I have a tank full of gas and I can get as far as Phoenix.’ But I was unaware that I was giving myself out.
“Almighty Yahuwah Almighty! A tank full of gas! You lost all the money,’ he said with resignation. Then he said, `As soon as you get to Phoenix, call me. Make sure that you get out of there right away, you understand me?’
“I hung up the phone and the young lady was already opening a cash box. She handed me $27.00 and a box of Kleenex. I said,
`Almighty Yahuwah bless you.’ And walked to my car. I sat behind the steering wheel once again but this time I wasn’t numb in my mind or emotions; but, once again I wanted to run and run fast like I did in my visions. I wanted to take refuge right into my Heavenly Father’s arms.
“I cried, and cried, and cried all the way from that spot in Vegas, Nevada, to New Orleans, Louisiana. If there ever was a time that I wished for wings this was that time.
“Only problem was that instead of running to my Heavenly Father I was running to Mr. Coo. For the Scriptures read,
‘So don’t be afraid, O Jacob my servant; don’t be dismayed, O Israel; for I will bring you home again from distant lands, and your children from their exile. They shall have rest and quiet in their own land, and no one shall make them afraid. For I am with you and I will save you, says Almighty Yahuwah. Even if I utterly destroy the nations where I scatter you, I WILL NOT EXTERMINATE YOU; I WILL PUNISH YOU, YES- YOU WILL NOT GO UNPUNISHED. Jeremiah 30:10-11′ (LBV. My own capitalizing.)
“But I didn’t know the Scriptures. Anyhow by the time I arrived at New Orleans I had died a thousand deaths and I had made just as many resolutions.
“At one point in the road I got lost and wound up in a desert road. It was a rainy and dreary day and I had no idea of where I was or how to get out of there.
“I kept driving though I was scared out of my wits and with only the vultures for company. There was not a single soul driving on that dessert road for miles and miles.
“I cried to Almighty Yahuwah, I said, `Master, if I die over here, the vultures are going to get me before anybody can find me! Please Almighty Yahuwah, get me out of here! I’ll never go away from You again.’ And before I knew it, I was back in the main highway.
“It seems to me now, as I look back, that it rained almost all the way from Vegas to New Orleans. It was a dreadful and long ride, the kind that one never wants to take again.
“That trip was, truly, the heavenly whipping that got my attention and delivered me from Satan’s open territory. But I still did not learn my lesson.
“For I did not perceive the knowledge of Almighty Yahuwah, the knowledge of the corruption of the flesh, and the knowledge of the way of the cross by faith.
“Although I changed my direction, I still turned towards the wrong way. And instead of going to Church for help, I went to my psychiatrist. Instead of drawing nigh to Almighty Yahuwah’s world, I drew nigh to Mr. Coo’s world.
“I drew to Mr. Coo’s world which is the way of the moral and good world, the good life of the world. But still, the world.
“Therefore, my mind remained in the stronghold of the enemy for a couple more years. For the Scriptures says,
My people perish for lack of knowledge. My people are destroyed because they don’t know me, and it is all your fault, you priests, for you yourselves refuse to know me; therefore, I refuse to recognize you as my priests. Since you have forgotten my laws, I will “forget” to bless your children. Hosea 4:6(LBV).
“For a couple of years I lived a mixed life. For when I came back from Vegas I gave up the struggle to make a go of a life of financial success. I humbled myself and gave up all my pretensions. I turned in my car and my house. And I made up my mind to work and to live according to my means. I started to look for work other than barmaid’s work because whether good or bad or whether I or anybody approves or disapproves of it, in reality barmaid’s work and everything included to make a barroom business prosperous is against Almighty Yahuwah’s commandments period.
“I also started to look for an affordable place to live. But I was unable to find either work or a place to live. I could not find work for lack of self-esteem. And I could not find a place to live because of lack of work.
“I was like a “whipped dog” in the outskirts of Satan’s open territory, rather than a welcomed “prodigal child” in my Father’s house. I needed help and I realized that I could not make it alone. “And in ignorance on how to get help from Almighty Yahuwah I compromised all my Christian principles and I began to live a mixed life.
“To begin with I went to the Mental Health Center and turned myself in to receive assistance to acquire some skill to enable me to earn a living other than barmaid’s work. But since I needed money right away and I couldn’t find work I compromised and started to work at Mr. Coo’s barroom again.
“Of course, at the Mental Health Center I was diagnosed as disabled to work because of emotional problems and referred to the Rehabilitation Center for job training.
“But my emotional disability required much more than just job training. For I was far more disturbed that I, myself, had ever thought to be. And so, because of the severity of my emotional disability, when I was supposed to be learning a skill just to earn my living, I actually wanted to accomplish many unrealistic goals based on mere dreams and illusions of grandeur, which dreams were only a perversion of my true Almighty Yahuwah given gifts and abilities.
“And from the false and shallow ground of unrealistic dreams, I began to read all kinds of self-improvement literature to begin with the struggle and arduous task to improve myself. I even attempted to practice mind control.
“For I wanted to improve myself to supersede in whatever I did merely for the sake of my ultimate glory. Such was the thriving pride and vanity in my carnal self!
“Socially and morally my views were very liberal. As long as I was discreet, I felt that I could do whatever I wanted to do.
“Spiritually, I was reaching out to Almighty Yahuwah only for my own gain and comfort. Thus, I was living a mixed life. A life of compromise.
“It was a very shallow life. I was still in the grip of Satan. Only now I was deceived into a self-improved life. A life fairly enviable. A life of liberal morals.
“A life of respectability, yet, with the comfort of a lover-friend; but, without the responsibility of a husband. With all the fringe benefits of compromise; but, without the responsibility of commitment.
“I had the world in front of me just mine for the asking. And no one could understand why I was still so miserable and gloomy and unable to grab on to that world. Why I could not go along like everybody else and settle down.
“Settle down to be Mr. Coo’s lady friend and enjoyed it. Settle down to a productive life in a lucrative career. Settle down on the climbing ladder of materialistic success at any cost!
“`Why, why, why!’ I would wonder to my own self. And I cried and I searched. I did this and I did that. I would talk about this great hoped-for break through today Tomorrow? I would be talking about a greater one yet to be realized. For I was swimming in the great pond of secular humanism philosophy.
“I was living well in a mixed life of liberal morals and idealistic humanitarian principles. That was a period of my life from the Vegas return around the end of October and beginning of November of 1983 to the 13th day of October 1985 when I had the second breakdown. Appropriately the Scriptures read,
“Yes, the wound in my flesh under the dictates of my carnal self was incurable because my flesh was not to profit anything to give life to my carnal self.
“For Almighty Yahuwah was not interested in making my flesh good under the dictates of my carnal self. Almighty Yahuwah’s sole and only interest was in making me realize that I was no good and to cause me to lift up my eyes to Him and see and receive Yahushua Messiah by faith.
“By faith means to trust in Almighty Yahuwah and His Word made flesh in Yahushua Messiah which is Almighty Yahuwah’s merciful provision to free us from our wicked carnal self.
“Almighty Yahuwah’s purpose was to convict me and bring me to accept the fact that He did the work of crucifixion or ending the life of my flesh on the cross in Yahushua Messiah. To that end I suffered the punishment so deserved because of my pride and stubborn UNBELIEF.
“That trip to Vegas was indeed the heavenly whipping that caught my attention. But it was not until the morning of the twentieth day of June in 1985 when Almighty Yahuwah touched me and began to break my stubborn ways to restore me into His kingdom. It was then when I began to receive and to hear, to perceive and to heed the voice of my Almighty Yahuwah.
“Nevertheless, this was so after much tribulation. For I did not go unpunished because of the greatness of my pride and stubbornness. And as it is written we must suffer the consequences of our sins. But my true deliverance was on the way, for so it was written.
“But I did not know what was written and during the first two weeks of October of 1985 I began to suffer the destruction and loss which I had to suffer. But it is written,
“I was to suffer a child of Almighty Yahuwah’s agony in the grip of Satan. That suffering was to be the beginning of my end and it began on October 13, 1985 when I lost my mind for the second time. But also, I was to experience the love of a loving Father that never leaves us nor forsakes us. The Abba Father.
“I was to suffer in the grip of Satan. I was to experience the love of Almighty Yahuwah because with my mind I gave up my job and everything else which I thought could hinder me in my walk with Almighty Yahuwah.
“But Almighty Yahuwah was not calling me to leave my job and everything else which I thought could hinder me in my walk with Him. Such was not the will of Almighty Yahuwah for me. Almighty Yahuwah was calling me to rest in Him. But it took a whole year before I would turn around and hear my Father calling me into His rest. A whole year before I would begin to learn what it meant to rest and rely on Almighty Yahuwah alone.
“A whole year to abandon my wicked and self-righteous ways and put my whole confidence and trust in Almighty Yahuwah and His plan of salvation for me and for the whole world, through Yahushua Messiah Almighty Yahuwah’s only-begotten Son.” End of Chapter 3 quote.
Restoration for Israel and Judah
Jeremiah 30:1-19
THE WORD that came to Jeremiah from the Master:
Thus says the Master, the Mighty One of Israel: Write all the words that I have spoken to you in a book.
For, note well, the days are coming, says the Master, when I will release from captivity My people Israel and Judah, says the Master, and I will cause them to return to the land that I gave to their fathers, and they will possess it.
And these are the words the Master spoke concerning Israel and Judah:
Thus, says the Master: We have heard a voice of trembling and panic–of terror, and not peace.
Ask now and see whether a man can give birth to a child? Why then do I see every man with his hands on his loins like a woman in labor? Why are all faces turned pale?
Alas! for that day will be great, so that none will be like it; it will be the time of Jacob’s [unequaled] trouble, but he will be saved out of it. [Mat 24:29-30; Rev 7:14]
For it will come to pass in that day, says the Master of hosts, that I will break [the oppressor’s] yoke from your neck, and I will burst your bonds; and strangers will no more make slaves of [the people of Israel].
But they will serve the Master their Mighty One and David’s [descendant] their King, Whom I will raise up for them. [Jer 23:5]
Therefore, fear not, O My servant Jacob, says the Master, nor be dismayed or cast down, O Israel; for behold, I will save you out of a distant land [of exile] and your posterity from the land of their captivity. Jacob will return and will be quiet and at ease, and none will make him afraid or cause him to be terrorized and to tremble.
For I am with you, says the Master, to save you; for I will make a full and complete end of all the nations to which I have scattered you, but I will not make a full and complete end of you. But I will correct you in measure and with judgment and will in no sense hold you guiltless or leave you unpunished.
For thus says the Master: Your hurt is incurable, and your wound is grievous.
There is none to plead your cause; for [the pressing together of] your wound you have no healing [device], no binding plaster.
All your lovers (allies) have forgotten you; they neither seek, inquire of, or require you. For I have hurt you with the wound of an enemy, with the chastisement of a cruel and merciless foe, because of the greatness of your perversity and guilt, because your sins are glaring and innumerable.
Why do you cry out because of your hurt [the natural result of your sins]? Your pain is deadly (incurable). Because of the greatness of your perversity and guilt, because your sins are glaring and innumerable, I have done these things to you.
Therefore, all who devour you will be devoured; and all your adversaries, every one of them, will go into captivity. And they who despoil you will become a spoil, and all who prey upon you will I give for a prey.
For I will restore health to you, and I will heal your wounds, says the Master, because they have called you an outcast, saying, This is Zion, whom no one seeks after and for whom no one cares!
Thus says the Master: Behold, I will release from captivity the tents of Jacob and have mercy on his dwelling places; the city will be rebuilt on its own [old] mound like site, and the palace will be dwelt in after its former fashion.
Out of them [city and palace] will come songs of thanksgiving and the voices of those who make merry. And I will multiply them, and they will not be few; I will also glorify them, and they will not be small. End of quote.

Therefore, the human has invented so many theories that stagers the human mind. The results?
Even so? On this 2020 year? You are rolling out Your doings in the lives of many witnesses of Your existence and Your doings in their lives. Your purpose for such exposure?
Prepare? For what? You are returning but! Before Your return there shall be the greatest tribulation ever known to mankind.
Saturday, February 1, 2020 at 11:50 am.
Master? I do not know any longer how to offer a worthy prayer, but! Your Spirit within me yearns for You to touch Your people’s heart on this 2020 with this realization.
You know that I have not missed acknowledging Your blessings, but! No sooner the least difficulty comes my way, I return to complaining grounds. The vicious circle I could no longer stand, so?
Saturday, February 1, 2020 at 1:19 pm.
You brought me back to my beginnings on the last day of the first moth of the 2020 year. What transpired as I progressed editing Chapter 3 of my autobiography? (Still working on it.)
Saturday, February 1, 2020 at 11:45 pm.
O my Master! it’s the end of this first 7th day of rest in 2020. What a blessed day! I rested underneath Your everlasting arms the whole afternoon until 9 pm.
You alone shall demonstrate the transpiration of all Your doings in my life. No need to figure thins out any longer.
Sunday, February 2, 2020 at 4:23 pm.
No need for any of us to figure things out. No need to live as per our figuring’s. Only need? Your Presence in the actuality of our daily living.
Sunday, February 2, 2020 at 9:09 pm.
Of course, we humans are masters at complicating things with our own figuring’s. Even so? You are at work to deliver each one of us from our own figuring’s.

Child of mine! My blessings leave me DUMBFOUND! LOL. On the 30-31st I had it out with Father. Why? Here is the details. Strange? Yes, I wanted to share these things with you, but! I did not want to make you think that I was pushing you. Besides? I no longer do whatever. I am just letting things happen.
So? what happened? After I had it out with Father, let me quote the beginning of what happened and continues to happen. I copy/paste the entries. Here is an excerpt of those entries:
That was the beginning of His response. Yesterday? I slept away the whole afternoon. When I woke at 9 pm? I was fuzzy didn’t know the time, so, I put on my glasses. Check the time. my inbox was glaring important emails. I clicked! Wow!
Baby, NOTHING! ABSOLUTELY NOTHING is what I or anyone else figures it to be! I am totally blown away with my new gifted freedom from my own figuring and conclusions. the best part?
This is not an emotional state. It’s something I have no words to describe. A permanent state of security and peace and love to last me for eternity!
Hope you read all of this. No matter. Whether you do or don’t no longer disturbs this amazing state and condition of my being.
l love you with an intensity never experienced before. lov mom:-).
Hahaha! Your mom? Thinking already: ‘what can I do with that extra moolash? Oops! I hear, loud and clear! “Let go! Be still! I am at work!”
So? Quit thinking. Going on with the cleaning I haven’t done for weeks. It’ll be sunny today out there and in here? Sunny in my heart!
Blessings! Lov mom

You put me to sleep from midnight to 6 am. A prayer on waking up: ‘Take my eyes off myself. Placed them on You. Let me not look at pain and discomfort. Let me be attentive to Your voice always unto eternity’
Sure enough. I get up. Do my business. Not knowing what to drink to relieve the unusual pain in my head, it came to me to fix a ginger tea.
Tuesday, February 4, 2020 at 6:14 am.
O my Master! it really is a wonder to expect from You. In my heart there rings a melody of Your intense and passionate love for us all! Hahaha! HalleluYah!
Tuesday, February 4, 2020 at 2:56 pm.
I do not hear anyone talking about the reason for the blessings. I am now hearing, ‘Why should you be stricken and punished any more [since it brings no correction]? You will revolt more and more.’
6:25 pm to 9 pm 9:50 pm to 3 am.
Wednesday, February 5, 2020 at 3:24 am.
O my Master! Your response to search my heart? You have so done. You have so continue to do. Funny thing; first You tell me to write down all evil going on for all to see. Now? You are turning the tables on me.
Wednesday, February 5, 2020 at 4:11 am.
Oops! And I was so smug writing and thinking that as I look around the blessings of 2020 are proclaiming but! The great tribulation. Not a mention of it much less preparing for it.
Ha! what about me? Isn’t it what I am doing? O my Master! You are so real in my life. Just like I did with my children You do to me. I wouldn’t let them get away with anything; neither do You with me.
Wednesday, February 5, 2020 at 9:08 am.
You have done the work in me for keeps this time. I don’t need a clue on next. I must live on present. So? when my mind attempts to get a clue on what comes next? Automatically I reject the attempt. Automatically I go on with the present.
I lived a frustrated miserable life unable to do what I could not do. Here lately? My past drove me almost back to the loony kooky bench, but!
O my Master! My sordid past troubles me no more! That’s the reality You enlightened to me on Saturday, February 1, 2020 at 3:45 am of my first 7th Day of Rest in this 2nd month of 2020, as I find myself resting in You.
Great victory? A miracle? Indeed! That’s the fact to be exact. Now what? One would thin to enjoy the ride at that. Really?
Enjoy! Deploy!
Much love to all. thiaBasilia.

Help me my Master to accept these things that are continuously aggravating me. The Net. The lack of visits or even phone calls from Ahmad and family?
Thursday, January 30, 2020 at 9:03 am.
I slept on and off from 9:45 pm to around 2:30 am this morning. I am not bent out of shape but, the cold is affecting my sleep. I just can’t get warm. You know it , my Master.
Thursday, January 30, 2020 at 10:54 pm.
You know how rough it is when all one’s sins pop to torment one’s soul; in the midst of such torment one wonders why You allow such evil after Your promise not to let evil torment one anymore?
Thursday, January 30, 2020 at 11:14 pm.
Ah! My welcomed little friend. Up! He turns on the heat.
Friday, January 31, 2020 at 1:13 am.
Midnight came. Me? Reflecting on Your questions. You took me back all the way to that place and moment of my birth. That happened over 80 years ago, but!
You are demonstrating to me how from my birth until this day You have assigned my caretakers. Why my suffering? Your response:
“O thiaBasilia—O Child Of My Heart? I gave you a mighty man for a father to take care of you. Didn’t you rebel against your father?
Now, My child, think back. At your father’s death, didn’t I place you under the care of his older son? But you rebelled against him as well.”
You send me to sleep from 2:10 am to 4:12 am
Friday, January 31, 2020 at 5:04 am.
Why my life’s sufferings? Because I was a person who resists any authority, control, or tradition. You brought me back all the way to the beginning of my rebellion. In retrospect?
CHAPTER 3
A HEAVENLY WHIPPING
This chapter is about the end of the darkest period of Thia’s life and the trip to Vegas. Such trip was the heavenly whipping that caught her attention!
A long time ago the Scriptures were written for us nowadays. And under the leading of the Holy Spirit we are supposed to learn, apply, and experience the Scriptures in our lives.
For the incidents that occurred to each individual in the Bible are real. And those incidents were written for an example to us.
“Alas!” sighs Thia, “I did not allow the Holy Spirit to lead me. And I had read the following Scriptures under my own leading many of times; but, I never did think to apply them to myself.
I thought those Scriptures were about something to be applied only to Peter or any of the old-time people.
I did not think that the Scriptures written in the Psalms or about Peter or about anybody else in those days applied to myself nowadays, but they do!
If only I would have put my name instead of Simon Peter or anybody else, it would have been perfectly valid. Alas, I didn’t, therefore, I suffered in ignorance.” For it is written,
Luke 22:31-34
Simon, Simon (Peter), listen! Satan has asked excessively that (all of) you be given up to him—out of the power and keeping of Almighty Yahuwah— that he might sift (all of) you like grain, (Job 1:6-12; Amos 9:9)
But I have prayed especially for you (Peter) that your (own) faith may not fail; and when you yourself have turned again, strengthen and establish your brethren.
And (Simon Peter) said to Him, Master, I am ready to go with You both to prison and to death.
But Yahushua said, I tell you, Peter, before a (single) cock shall crow this day, you will three times (utterly) deny that you know Me.
Psalms 109:30,31 (LBV)
But I will give repeated thanks to Almighty Yahuwah, praising him to everyone. For he stands beside the poor and hungry to save them from their enemies.
Psalms 110:1. (LBV)
JEHOVAH SAID to my Master the Messiah, “Rule as my regent— I will subdue your enemies and make them bow low before you” End of quote
But Thia was totally in the dark that such Scriptures applied also to herself, and she suffered a period of utter darkness in ignorance of her Savior’s faithfulness to pray and to stand by to save her.
And Thia was ignorant also of her Savior’s power to subdue and to make bow low before Him the enemies of fear and confusion which were Thia’s enemies.
Anyhow, in 1974 Thia had a mental breakdown. She fell into the trap of her enemies of fear and confusion and she was taken to the mental ward and given a dose of Terrazin that made her lose her mind for three days.
During the three days when she lost her mind, she had several visions and in those visions she had seen then, in 1974, everything that was happening to her now, in 1983.
And among those things happening to her now was the end of her second marriage which was the most exhilarating and emotionally violent decade of her life and the beginning of a relationship with a gentleman called “Mr. Coo.
At that time, in 1974, she did not even have an inkling that this gentleman, Mr. Coo, existed. Therefore, in her visions that year of 1974, she mistook him for her second husband at an older age, because at that period of time her second husband happened to have a striking resemblance to Mr. Coo.
But the man in her vision was not her husband at all, for in her vision she foresaw Mr. Coo as she found out at the appointed time of her life.
In her visions she also foresaw the trip to Vegas which she was about to undertake.
It was now 1983 and by then she had divorced from her second husband and she had forgotten all about those visions. Though that for a while after the breakdown she tried to figure out what she had seen, by 1983 she had given up trying to decipher what she foresaw in 1974, and she didn’t even think about it anymore.
Yet, nearing the end of that period of utter darkness and despair which she foresaw in 1974, and around the middle of 1983 when the roof cave in and she ran, she came to understand all those things that she had seen during those three days in which she had lost her mind back in 1974.
For the roof of her world’s castle began to cave in around July of 1983 and she panicked and ran about two months later, when she realized that her whole castle was tumbling down around October of 1983.
To begin with, her youngest daughter and her son-in-law were supposed to buy Thia’s house because Thia could not meet the mortgage payments.
Thia was awfully glad when the loan was approved for them to buy the house—around July.
But, to Thia’s utter disbelief, her son-in-law backed off the deal, and Thia was caught with three mortgage payments behind. Such was the first stage of the cave in!
At the time Thia was working for a pittance in Mr. Coo’s neighborhood bar. But in a desperate attempt to make money to catch up with the mortgage payments she switched work to a barroom that offered her more money.
Then she went back to work her Real Estate License plus she got a part-time job in a fabric store.
For Thia was desperately trying to make money not only to pay her mortgage payments but also for her car payments as well because she was also late with those; but it was too late.
There was no way to catch up with so much back-up. She was running herself to insanity and in vain.
And so, around the end of September or perhaps October of 1983 Thia decided to get roommates and work hard on Real Estate to make enough money to take care of the mortgage and the car payment without losing her sanity.
So, she quit the barroom altogether and the part-time job at the fabric store to dedicate herself to Real Estate completely.
However, to Thia’s utter shock, when she came in that day to the Real Estate Company with all her eggs in that one basket, determined and resolved to make money, her Real Estate Manager called her to the office and Squoosh! every one of those freshly laid eggs.
Thia was told to hang it up for Real Estate was not productive for her or for them because of Thia’s emotional situation.
Thia was told that it was best that she would remove her license from the active list.
Such was the second and final stage to the cave in! Thia was shocked to numbness. Later on she confided,
“I have no recollection as to what I did at that immediate moment. But afterwards, for a little while, I refused to give up.
I purposed in my heart to run a good distance to make a lot of money, and from far away, rebuild my house, rebuild my life! …”
Thia decided to run to Vegas to make money in the casinos!
And Almighty Yahuwah, in His infinite mercy and wisdom, just watched Thia run. About those times Thia says,
In Thia’s vision of Almighty Yahuwah in 1974 Almighty Yahuwah stood up, just waiting for Thia to wear out and come to the end of Thia’s carnal affairs and willful ways.
The sad irony was that Thia’s conception of Almighty Yahuwah at the time of those visions, was a conception of power and power only, she never saw the tears of the loving Father through the prophet saying,
Quote:
Thia didn’t think about love at all. As far back as Thia could remember Thia had one thing in mind and that was power!
Mind and will power that is! Love didn’t enter into Thia’s mind unless, one deserved to be loved because of one’s excellent ways.
Well, as things developed just about that time, right before Thia took off for Vegas, Mr. Coo’s wife died and Thia was exhorted to go and give to Mr. Coo her condolences.
Mr. Coo was Thia’s former employer. (Coo is not his legal name but Coo he was called from childhood on up and everybody in the business called him Coo or Mr. Coo.)
Now, Mr. Coo has always been a well-liked and respectable senior citizen with a heart of gold. And, of course, everybody knew how ill his wife had been for the past year or so, and it was common knowledge how much Mr. Coo loved his wife, how devoted he was to her and how well he took care of her.
Thia, personally, admired Mr. Coo greatly for that reason, and Thia longed, in many occasions, to have a husband like him.
Nevertheless, it never occurred to Thia to make any advances to Mr. Coo. Besides, Mr. Coo was so preoccupied with his wife that, for a while, when Thia had started working at his place only a few months back, Mr. Coo did not even know that Thia was working for him.
For Thia was hired by one of Mr. Coo’s regular workers who didn’t feel like working for a while and who didn’t want to disturb Mr. Coo with her resignation.
Then, when Mr. Coo realized that Thia was working for him, he was outwardly spiteful to Thia.
Also, to top Mr. Coo’s spitefulness, Thia was only working for him for a pittance in comparison with what she needed to earn.
So, when Thia decided to attempt to make enough money to meet the mortgage payments, she went to work for somebody else.
In fact, at the time of his wife’s death, Thia was still working for one of Mr. Coo’s competitors and she had no intentions to go and offer any condolences to Mr. Coo at all.
But a common friend of Thia and Mr. Coo insisted that Thia should go, and Thia went. Because, at that time Thia was intoxicated most of the time, and Thia did things just to keep her from doing nothing.
Shortly after Mr. Coo’s wife was buried Thia had quit all her jobs, the one at Mr. Coo’s competitor and the one at the fabric store. And since she felt rejected by the Real Estate industry, she was on her way to Vegas—to the land of shattered fortunes and dreams.
But Thia was determined to make her own way. Yes, her car was packed and she was on her way to Vegas. Yet, I guess like a zombie she went to give her condolences to Mr. Coo, and she wound up giving a date to Mr. Coo.
Well, that date set her trip back for about a week or two for Mr. Coo took a liking to Thia and felt sorry for her. And the day when Thia decided to take off, Mr. Coo begged her not to go, but she had made up her mind, and she took off anyhow. For she was determined to rebuild her own life without anybody’s help, most specially without the help from a man.
Even though she didn’t want his help, Mr. Coo offered it and he told her to call him during her trip and let him know how she was getting along.
On her way to Vegas she stopped to visit her first Bible teacher, Jean, whom she had known and trusted for several years. Jean tried desperately to stop Thia from going to Vegas, even reminding Thia what the Bible says about follies and such. But in this period of her life, almost a whole year during which period she have been intoxicated most of the time, it did not occur to Thia that Almighty Yahuwah was not with her.
As far as Thia was concerned Almighty Yahuwah was closer to her than He was to most regular Christians, and she felt justified following her own inclinations for she did not trust any Christian, except for Jean. In spite of Thia’s condition, Jean did not give up on Thia. She was unable to convince Thia about the trouble ahead, but she did not reject Thia, nor did she quit showing love and friendship for her.
Regardless of Jean’s objections Thia continued on her journey though. She stopped to call Mr. Coo in Houston, and after she talked to him, and learned that he really wanted her to come back, she felt somehow weak about continuing the trip. So, she went in the lounge of the hotel from where she had made the call to Mr. Coo and she had one drink.
She finished that one drink and with doubtful feelings she got in the car and started on her way again only to take the wrong route. On top of that the highway patrol stopped her because she was speeding and wobbling. They accused her of drinking and searched her car for the alcohol. She was not totally innocent, but, “My goodness!” she said, “I am not carrying alcohol in the car!” (not this time anyhow).
Thia was horribly embarrassed for they took her in to take the alcohol test! Fortunately, she passed the test and did not go to jail. “Oh the beasts!” she thought to herself, “Why don’t they go to do some kind of useful work like defending the battered woman and the abused children instead of relishing their wicked selves and harassing poor souls like me!” For Thia was still ignorant of the Holy Scriptures. She did not know the Scriptures written by the apostle Peter under the inspiration of the Holy Spirit which say,
For Almighty Yahuwah’s sake, OBEY every law of your government: those of the king as head of the state, 14 and those of the king’s officers, for he has sent them to PUNISH ALL who do wrong, and to honor those who do right. I Peter 2:13,14. (LBV)
So, grumbling and complaining against the patrolmen she continued on with renewed determination and by night fall she arrived at what she thought to be Vegas, Nevada, her destination. But, to her utter consternation she had arrived at Vegas, New Mexico!
It was late at night when she arrived at Vegas, New Mexico, so, she found a place to park and slept in her car. The next day she took off again and finally made it to Vegas, Nevada. By this time she was scared, discouraged and flat broke. In her despair, she called Mr. Coo and asked him to lend her some money to come back to New Orleans. Immediately, Mr. Coo wired the necessary money for Thia to come back.
Thia picked up the money at the Western Union station and then she decided to check in at a hotel to freshen up, catch up with some sleep. She figured that she could then start on the way back the following day.
But once she was settled in the hotel, she figured that as long as she was there, she might as well do what she came there to do anyhow, and that was, to look for a job in the casinos.
Thia figured she could investigate the job market, perhaps secure a job, go back to New Orleans and pack things up, and then come back to live in Vegas to make piles of money.
Almighty Yahuwah, in His infinite mercy, provided two young men who were staying at the hotel, for Thia to be escorted in the hunt for a job. That night they went from casino to casino. These young men wise Thia up on things to watch out for. “Prostitution is legal in this part of town and it is common for black pimps to solicit white woman.” They informed Thia. It was appalling to her, but she had re-determined to hunt for a job, so the hunt continued.
They found out that you have to join the union in order to work in most casinos. So, Thia decided to get all the information about the union and find out what would cost to join it. She figured she could do all of that early in the morning the very next day and start out to New Orleans in the afternoon. She filled up her car with gasoline. And they all returned to the hotel and retired to their respective rooms.
Early in the morning the next day she loaded her car. The young men drew her a map to hunt for the Union building. She gave them a ride to their work, and she started out on her way to the Union office. It was too early for any offices to be opened. She decided to go in one of the casinos to eat breakfast and wait for the offices to open.
On her way to the food counter she figured that there was no harm in playing $5.00 in the slot machine. “Perhaps I could win some money to pay Mr. Coo for the loan.” She thought as she stuck a quarter in one of the machines.
Automatically, she stuck another quarter. The machine fed her back a few quarters. She stuck those quarters back. The machine gave her a good win.
So, she began to stick one quarter after another, and another, and another, and another, and another, ‘till, there was not even one more quarter left.
That was some thirteen hours later after she had won and lost better than $1000.00 including every penny that Mr. Coo had kindly wired her for her return to New Orleans!
As Thia relates her story she says, “There was another lady next to me doing the same thing which I was doing. There was a continual pulling of that handle without ceasing.
“We never took a break. I never ate breakfast, or lunch, or supper. My hands were sore from all that pulling and black from the dirt in the handle.
“Never once did I think about the time, in fact I didn’t think of anything at all. I was fascinated with that machine. The ringing of all those quarters in every win was like a charm that hypnotized me into a compulsion that I had never experienced before.
“It was exhilarating, and exciting, and fun! I laughed, and laughed, and laughed so much that my stomach muscles were as sore as my hands.
“And when the last quarter was gone, I still laughed for I did not realized what I had done `till I stepped outside.
It was nighttime. The twinkling lights of every casino in that strip were twinkling with incredible mischievousness. The night was dark as a background for the myriad of twinkling mischievous little lights.
“And then, suddenly! The laugh died within me! The monstrous reality rose in front of me and I gasped in panic! In a brief moment the spectrum of 1974 flashed in front of me and I realized that what I saw back in 1974 in those days that I was out of my mind in a Terrazin trip was exactly what I was going through at that very moment.
“And, at that very instant, I realized also that the man that I saw in those visions, the man who I thought to be my husband at an older age, that man was not my husband at all. That man that I saw then was none other but Mr. Coo, my new friend.
“I was just about 2,000 miles away from home without a nickel in my pocket for I gambled even my last quarter and, I was completely alone! For I had betrayed every relationship in my life even to my new friend Mr. Coo.
“I stood there. For a brief moment I was simply petrified. And then, I began to walk. My feet were heavy, and my whole body felt like giving in under a heavy load. I made my way to the automobile. I unlocked the door got in and just sat there behind the steering wheel.
“My panic gave way to numbness. I was numb. I could not think about anything or feel any emotions. I just sat there. After a while, my reasoning power returned somehow and I thought, `Now, what to do? Perhaps a phone call if only I had a quarter!…
“It was then when I saw the change in my cup holder by the driver’s seat. I scooped it all up and counted it. All of a sudden, I perked up a bit for I had 98 cents! I was not completely broke, after all. `Miracle of miracles!’ I thought, `Almighty Yahuwah must still be with me. I can make it!’
“I started the car and began to drive away. But just before I got out of the parking lot there was a black man waving his hand. I thought that he was some kind of parking lot attendant or a valet or something like that. Therefore, I stopped.
“The man came over to my car, and I rolled down my window to find out what was the matter. The man bend over to my car window and said, `Are you going to your hotel, sugar?’
“Quickly I remembered how those two young men had warned me about black pimps, so, I rolled up my window and sped up my car. My heart began to beat fast, I remembered everything and forgot everything at the same time!
“It was a vivid recollection of how I felt in 1974 right before I woke up from that 3-day Terrazin trip in which I had embarked at the time they committed me to the mental ward when I had the mental breakdown.
“It was a vivid recollection of how I felt then when I ran to my Heavenly Father and said, `I don’t ever want to be separated from You again.’ And at that moment I became aware of what it was that I had run from scared stiff out of my bones in my visions of 1974.
“It was at that moment when I found out the awfulness which I couldn’t remember when I woke up from that awful Terrazin trip in 1974. It was such awfulness which I had given up even trying to think about any longer.
“I sped out of the parking lot and I drove like crazy. Then, gradually, I slowed down and began to regain some composure. I figured, `Late as it is I better find me a place where I can rest.’
“And as I tried to figure out where to go or where to stay I realized that I hardly had enough money to pay for a hotel, `Ninety eight cents!’ I sighed.
“Sleeping in the car was not new to me but now, I was scared out of my wits! I remembered the two young men at the hotel, but I was lost and had no idea how to get to the hotel.
“And from the depth of my being I uttered a prayer, `Oh Almighty Yahuwah, let me find that hotel! And let me remember what was the room number for those two young men. I have no other alternative but those two, Oh my Almighty Yahuwah!’
“As I uttered that prayer, I turned the corner and there, sticking right up above the other signs, was the sign for the hotel. I cried.
I drove in the hotel’s parking lot. I went straight to the young men’s room. I knocked on the door.
The young men were already asleep, but they woke up, and urged me to come in. `Don’t worry,’ they said. `It happens to most everybody that comes to Vegas in search of fortune. We are stuck, too, we had to hack our car and that’s why we are working to redeem it. But we have learned our lesson, as soon as we can redeem the car we are getting out of here. There is plenty work here, you are going to be alright.’
“`I believe so,’ I said, `but the first thing that I am going to do tomorrow is to go to that Church I saw in the Strip. I know that I must get to a Church before I do anything else.’
“They offered me a bed to sleep but I chose to sleep in my sleeping bag. Thank Almighty Yahuwah that I had a roof over my head I didn’t need a bed.
“The next day, after the farewells and good wishes, I made way to the Church of the Strip. Almighty Yahuwah truly is an Almighty Yahuwah of mercy.
`I need help.’ I said when I walked in. `I am a Christian and I have fallen, I am flat broke, I am from New Orleans, and I don’t know a soul in this town. I have not eaten in three days and I have lost all my money in the casinos.’
“Not too many more words were spoken. But, within five minutes, the young lady—the one who greeted me when I walked in— said,
`First things first. The first thing that we must do is to feed you and then we can clear our heads to figure out what to do.’
“She brought me to the restaurant across the street and fed me. Next, she told me to relax and have some quiet time with Almighty Yahuwah before we decided on what to do.
“`I could easily look for a temporary job to make money to go back to New Orleans.’ I said when the time came.
“`Could you call on friends? Perhaps you could raise the money through some friends. Do you have any friends that you could call on?’ She suggested. For she was not sure that I should stay there at all.
“`I have a lot of friends, but I have betrayed them all and I don’t think anybody would want to help me!’ I said in hopeless despair.
“`You would be surprised how friends can respond,’ she said, `use the phone and call. Do you recall any numbers?’
“`I need to call Mr. Coo,’ I said, `but there is no way that I am going to ask him for any more money, I’ll die first!’ I picked up the phone, and I dialed Mr. Coo’s number.
“`I am coming back towards the end of the week, I ran into some problems and I am staying a little longer.’ I said with a quick tone of voice to Mr. Coo.
“`What happened with the money I sent you? Never mind! Don’t tell me!’ He said like a wise old owl. Then after a pause he shouted at me, `I would like to send you some more money; but, I want you to get your butt right out of there now! not later. Do you have any money left to get out of there?’
“`For an answer I said `Just a minute, hold on for a minute. And I whispered to the young lady, `Where is the next big town on the way to New Orleans?’ Quickly, she consulted a map in the wall.
`Phoenix,’ she whispered back. `How far?’ I whispered again, trying to figure out how far my tank full of gas would carry me.
`About 300 miles,’ she whispered.
“And back on the phone I said to Mr. Coo, `Yeah, I can get out of here right now. I have a tank full of gas and I can get as far as Phoenix.’ But I was unaware that I was giving myself out.
“Almighty Yahuwah Almighty! A tank full of gas! You lost all the money,’ he said with resignation. Then he said, `As soon as you get to Phoenix, call me. Make sure that you get out of there right away, you understand me?’
“I hung up the phone and the young lady was already opening a cash box. She handed me $27.00 and a box of Kleenex. I said,
`Almighty Yahuwah bless you.’ And walked to my car. I sat behind the steering wheel once again but this time I wasn’t numb in my mind or emotions; but, once again I wanted to run and run fast like I did in my visions. I wanted to take refuge right into my Heavenly Father’s arms.
“I cried, and cried, and cried all the way from that spot in Vegas, Nevada, to New Orleans, Louisiana. If there ever was a time that I wished for wings this was that time.
“Only problem was that instead of running to my Heavenly Father I was running to Mr. Coo. For the Scriptures read,
‘So don’t be afraid, O Jacob my servant; don’t be dismayed, O Israel; for I will bring you home again from distant lands, and your children from their exile. They shall have rest and quiet in their own land, and no one shall make them afraid. For I am with you and I will save you, says Almighty Yahuwah. Even if I utterly destroy the nations where I scatter you, I WILL NOT EXTERMINATE YOU; I WILL PUNISH YOU, YES- YOU WILL NOT GO UNPUNISHED. Jeremiah 30:10-11′ (LBV. My own capitalizing.)
“But I didn’t know the Scriptures. Anyhow by the time I arrived at New Orleans I had died a thousand deaths and I had made just as many resolutions.
“At one point in the road I got lost and wound up in a desert road. It was a rainy and dreary day and I had no idea of where I was or how to get out of there.
“I kept driving though I was scared out of my wits and with only the vultures for company. There was not a single soul driving on that dessert road for miles and miles.
“I cried to Almighty Yahuwah, I said, `Master, if I die over here, the vultures are going to get me before anybody can find me! Please Almighty Yahuwah, get me out of here! I’ll never go away from You again.’ And before I knew it, I was back in the main highway.
“It seems to me now, as I look back, that it rained almost all the way from Vegas to New Orleans. It was a dreadful and long ride, the kind that one never wants to take again.
“That trip was, truly, the heavenly whipping that got my attention and delivered me from Satan’s open territory. But I still did not learn my lesson.
“For I did not perceive the knowledge of Almighty Yahuwah, the knowledge of the corruption of the flesh, and the knowledge of the way of the cross by faith.
“Although I changed my direction, I still turned towards the wrong way. And instead of going to Church for help, I went to my psychiatrist. Instead of drawing nigh to Almighty Yahuwah’s world, I drew nigh to Mr. Coo’s world.
“I drew to Mr. Coo’s world which is the way of the moral and good world, the good life of the world. But still, the world.
“Therefore, my mind remained in the stronghold of the enemy for a couple more years. For the Scriptures says,
My people perish for lack of knowledge. My people are destroyed because they don’t know me, and it is all your fault, you priests, for you yourselves refuse to know me; therefore, I refuse to recognize you as my priests. Since you have forgotten my laws, I will “forget” to bless your children. Hosea 4:6(LBV).
“For a couple of years I lived a mixed life. For when I came back from Vegas I gave up the struggle to make a go of a life of financial success. I humbled myself and gave up all my pretensions. I turned in my car and my house. And I made up my mind to work and to live according to my means. I started to look for work other than barmaid’s work because whether good or bad or whether I or anybody approves or disapproves of it, in reality barmaid’s work and everything included to make a barroom business prosperous is against Almighty Yahuwah’s commandments period.
“I also started to look for an affordable place to live. But I was unable to find either work or a place to live. I could not find work for lack of self-esteem. And I could not find a place to live because of lack of work.
“I was like a “whipped dog” in the outskirts of Satan’s open territory, rather than a welcomed “prodigal child” in my Father’s house. I needed help and I realized that I could not make it alone. “And in ignorance on how to get help from Almighty Yahuwah I compromised all my Christian principles and I began to live a mixed life.
“To begin with I went to the Mental Health Center and turned myself in to receive assistance to acquire some skill to enable me to earn a living other than barmaid’s work. But since I needed money right away and I couldn’t find work I compromised and started to work at Mr. Coo’s barroom again.
“Of course, at the Mental Health Center I was diagnosed as disabled to work because of emotional problems and referred to the Rehabilitation Center for job training.
“But my emotional disability required much more than just job training. For I was far more disturbed that I, myself, had ever thought to be. And so, because of the severity of my emotional disability, when I was supposed to be learning a skill just to earn my living, I actually wanted to accomplish many unrealistic goals based on mere dreams and illusions of grandeur, which dreams were only a perversion of my true Almighty Yahuwah given gifts and abilities.
“And from the false and shallow ground of unrealistic dreams, I began to read all kinds of self-improvement literature to begin with the struggle and arduous task to improve myself. I even attempted to practice mind control.
“For I wanted to improve myself to supersede in whatever I did merely for the sake of my ultimate glory. Such was the thriving pride and vanity in my carnal self!
“Socially and morally my views were very liberal. As long as I was discreet, I felt that I could do whatever I wanted to do.
“Spiritually, I was reaching out to Almighty Yahuwah only for my own gain and comfort. Thus, I was living a mixed life. A life of compromise.
“It was a very shallow life. I was still in the grip of Satan. Only now I was deceived into a self-improved life. A life fairly enviable. A life of liberal morals.
“A life of respectability, yet, with the comfort of a lover-friend; but, without the responsibility of a husband. With all the fringe benefits of compromise; but, without the responsibility of commitment.
“I had the world in front of me just mine for the asking. And no one could understand why I was still so miserable and gloomy and unable to grab on to that world. Why I could not go along like everybody else and settle down.
“Settle down to be Mr. Coo’s lady friend and enjoyed it. Settle down to a productive life in a lucrative career. Settle down on the climbing ladder of materialistic success at any cost!
“`Why, why, why!’ I would wonder to my own self. And I cried and I searched. I did this and I did that. I would talk about this great hoped-for break through today Tomorrow? I would be talking about a greater one yet to be realized. For I was swimming in the great pond of secular humanism philosophy.
“I was living well in a mixed life of liberal morals and idealistic humanitarian principles. That was a period of my life from the Vegas return around the end of October and beginning of November of 1983 to the 13th day of October 1985 when I had the second breakdown. Appropriately the Scriptures read,
“Yes, the wound in my flesh under the dictates of my carnal self was incurable because my flesh was not to profit anything to give life to my carnal self.
“For Almighty Yahuwah was not interested in making my flesh good under the dictates of my carnal self. Almighty Yahuwah’s sole and only interest was in making me realize that I was no good and to cause me to lift up my eyes to Him and see and receive Yahushua Messiah by faith.
“By faith means to trust in Almighty Yahuwah and His Word made flesh in Yahushua Messiah which is Almighty Yahuwah’s merciful provision to free us from our wicked carnal self.
“Almighty Yahuwah’s purpose was to convict me and bring me to accept the fact that He did the work of crucifixion or ending the life of my flesh on the cross in Yahushua Messiah. To that end I suffered the punishment so deserved because of my pride and stubborn UNBELIEF.
“That trip to Vegas was indeed the heavenly whipping that caught my attention. But it was not until the morning of the twentieth day of June in 1985 when Almighty Yahuwah touched me and began to break my stubborn ways to restore me into His kingdom. It was then when I began to receive and to hear, to perceive and to heed the voice of my Almighty Yahuwah.
“Nevertheless, this was so after much tribulation. For I did not go unpunished because of the greatness of my pride and stubbornness. And as it is written we must suffer the consequences of our sins. But my true deliverance was on the way, for so it was written.
“But I did not know what was written and during the first two weeks of October of 1985 I began to suffer the destruction and loss which I had to suffer. But it is written,
“I was to suffer a child of Almighty Yahuwah’s agony in the grip of Satan. That suffering was to be the beginning of my end and it began on October 13, 1985 when I lost my mind for the second time. But also, I was to experience the love of a loving Father that never leaves us nor forsakes us. The Abba Father.
“I was to suffer in the grip of Satan. I was to experience the love of Almighty Yahuwah because with my mind I gave up my job and everything else which I thought could hinder me in my walk with Almighty Yahuwah.
“But Almighty Yahuwah was not calling me to leave my job and everything else which I thought could hinder me in my walk with Him. Such was not the will of Almighty Yahuwah for me. Almighty Yahuwah was calling me to rest in Him. But it took a whole year before I would turn around and hear my Father calling me into His rest. A whole year before I would begin to learn what it meant to rest and rely on Almighty Yahuwah alone.
“A whole year to abandon my wicked and self-righteous ways and put my whole confidence and trust in Almighty Yahuwah and His plan of salvation for me and for the whole world, through Yahushua Messiah Almighty Yahuwah’s only-begotten Son.” End of Chapter 3 quote.
Restoration for Israel and Judah
Jeremiah 30:1-19
THE WORD that came to Jeremiah from the Master:
Thus says the Master, the Mighty One of Israel: Write all the words that I have spoken to you in a book.
For, note well, the days are coming, says the Master, when I will release from captivity My people Israel and Judah, says the Master, and I will cause them to return to the land that I gave to their fathers, and they will possess it.
And these are the words the Master spoke concerning Israel and Judah:
Thus, says the Master: We have heard a voice of trembling and panic–of terror, and not peace.
Ask now and see whether a man can give birth to a child? Why then do I see every man with his hands on his loins like a woman in labor? Why are all faces turned pale?
Alas! for that day will be great, so that none will be like it; it will be the time of Jacob’s [unequaled] trouble, but he will be saved out of it. [Mat 24:29-30; Rev 7:14]
For it will come to pass in that day, says the Master of hosts, that I will break [the oppressor’s] yoke from your neck, and I will burst your bonds; and strangers will no more make slaves of [the people of Israel].
But they will serve the Master their Mighty One and David’s [descendant] their King, Whom I will raise up for them. [Jer 23:5]
Therefore, fear not, O My servant Jacob, says the Master, nor be dismayed or cast down, O Israel; for behold, I will save you out of a distant land [of exile] and your posterity from the land of their captivity. Jacob will return and will be quiet and at ease, and none will make him afraid or cause him to be terrorized and to tremble.
For I am with you, says the Master, to save you; for I will make a full and complete end of all the nations to which I have scattered you, but I will not make a full and complete end of you. But I will correct you in measure and with judgment and will in no sense hold you guiltless or leave you unpunished.
For thus says the Master: Your hurt is incurable, and your wound is grievous.
There is none to plead your cause; for [the pressing together of] your wound you have no healing [device], no binding plaster.
All your lovers (allies) have forgotten you; they neither seek, inquire of, or require you. For I have hurt you with the wound of an enemy, with the chastisement of a cruel and merciless foe, because of the greatness of your perversity and guilt, because your sins are glaring and innumerable.
Why do you cry out because of your hurt [the natural result of your sins]? Your pain is deadly (incurable). Because of the greatness of your perversity and guilt, because your sins are glaring and innumerable, I have done these things to you.
Therefore, all who devour you will be devoured; and all your adversaries, every one of them, will go into captivity. And they who despoil you will become a spoil, and all who prey upon you will I give for a prey.
For I will restore health to you, and I will heal your wounds, says the Master, because they have called you an outcast, saying, This is Zion, whom no one seeks after and for whom no one cares!
Thus says the Master: Behold, I will release from captivity the tents of Jacob and have mercy on his dwelling places; the city will be rebuilt on its own [old] mound like site, and the palace will be dwelt in after its former fashion.
Out of them [city and palace] will come songs of thanksgiving and the voices of those who make merry. And I will multiply them, and they will not be few; I will also glorify them, and they will not be small. End of quote.

Therefore, the human has invented so many theories that stagers the human mind. The results?
Even so? On this 2020 year? You are rolling out Your doings in the lives of many witnesses of Your existence and Your doings in their lives. Your purpose for such exposure?
Prepare? For what? You are returning but! Before Your return there shall be the greatest tribulation ever known to mankind.
Saturday, February 1, 2020 at 11:50 am.
Master? I do not know any longer how to offer a worthy prayer, but! Your Spirit within me yearns for You to touch Your people’s heart on this 2020 with this realization.
You know that I have not missed acknowledging Your blessings, but! No sooner the least difficulty comes my way, I return to complaining grounds. The vicious circle I could no longer stand, so?
Saturday, February 1, 2020 at 1:19 pm.
You brought me back to my beginnings on the last day of the first moth of the 2020 year. What transpired as I progressed editing Chapter 3 of my autobiography? (Still working on it.)
Saturday, February 1, 2020 at 11:45 pm.
O my Master! it’s the end of this first 7th day of rest in 2020. What a blessed day! I rested underneath Your everlasting arms the whole afternoon until 9 pm.
You alone shall demonstrate the transpiration of all Your doings in my life. No need to figure thins out any longer.
Sunday, February 2, 2020 at 4:23 pm.
No need for any of us to figure things out. No need to live as per our figuring’s. Only need? Your Presence in the actuality of our daily living.
Sunday, February 2, 2020 at 9:09 pm.
Of course, we humans are masters at complicating things with our own figuring’s. Even so? You are at work to deliver each one of us from our own figuring’s.
Denise sent me some extra money to help with my expenses. I responded to her. Quote:
Excerpt of email.
Child of mine! My blessings leave me DUMBFOUND! LOL. On the 30-31st I had it out with Father. Why? Here is the details. Strange? Yes, I wanted to share these things with you, but! I did not want to make you think that I was pushing you. Besides? I no longer do whatever. I am just letting things happen.
So? what happened? After I had it out with Father, let me quote the beginning of what happened and continues to happen. I copy/paste the entries. Here is an excerpt of those entries:
That was the beginning of His response. Yesterday? I slept away the whole afternoon. When I woke at 9 pm? I was fuzzy didn’t know the time, so, I put on my glasses. Check the time. my inbox was glaring important emails. I clicked! Wow!
Baby, NOTHING! ABSOLUTELY NOTHING is what I or anyone else figures it to be! I am totally blown away with my new gifted freedom from my own figuring and conclusions. the best part?
This is not an emotional state. It’s something I have no words to describe. A permanent state of security and peace and love to last me for eternity!
Hope you read all of this. No matter. Whether you do or don’t no longer disturbs this amazing state and condition of my being.
l love you with an intensity never experienced before. lov mom:-).
Hahaha! Your mom? Thinking already: ‘what can I do with that extra moolash? Oops! I hear, loud and clear! “Let go! Be still! I am at work!”
So? Quit thinking. Going on with the cleaning I haven’t done for weeks. It’ll be sunny today out there and in here? Sunny in my heart!
Blessings! Lov mom

You put me to sleep from midnight to 6 am. A prayer on waking up: ‘Take my eyes off myself. Placed them on You. Let me not look at pain and discomfort. Let me be attentive to Your voice always unto eternity’
Sure enough. I get up. Do my business. Not knowing what to drink to relieve the unusual pain in my head, it came to me to fix a ginger tea.
Tuesday, February 4, 2020 at 6:14 am.
O my Master! it really is a wonder to expect from You. In my heart there rings a melody of Your intense and passionate love for us all! Hahaha! HalleluYah!
Tuesday, February 4, 2020 at 2:56 pm.
I do not hear anyone talking about the reason for the blessings. I am now hearing, ‘Why should you be stricken and punished any more [since it brings no correction]? You will revolt more and more.’
6:25 pm to 9 pm 9:50 pm to 3 am.
Wednesday, February 5, 2020 at 3:24 am.
O my Master! Your response to search my heart? You have so done. You have so continue to do. Funny thing; first You tell me to write down all evil going on for all to see. Now? You are turning the tables on me.
Wednesday, February 5, 2020 at 4:11 am.
Oops! And I was so smug writing and thinking that as I look around the blessings of 2020 are proclaiming but! The great tribulation. Not a mention of it much less preparing for it.
Ha! what about me? Isn’t it what I am doing? O my Master! You are so real in my life. Just like I did with my children You do to me. I wouldn’t let them get away with anything; neither do You with me.
Wednesday, February 5, 2020 at 9:08 am.
You have done the work in me for keeps this time. I don’t need a clue on next. I must live on present. So? when my mind attempts to get a clue on what comes next? Automatically I reject the attempt. Automatically I go on with the present.
I lived a frustrated miserable life unable to do what I could not do. Here lately? My past drove me almost back to the loony kooky bench, but!
O my Master! My sordid past troubles me no more! That’s the reality You enlightened to me on Saturday, February 1, 2020 at 3:45 am of my first 7th Day of Rest in this 2nd month of 2020, as I find myself resting in You.
Great victory? A miracle? Indeed! That’s the fact to be exact. Now what? One would thin to enjoy the ride at that. Really?
Enjoy! Deploy!
Much love to all. thiaBasilia.
