Sabbath Delight

1 Behold, the LORD maketh the earth empty, and maketh it waste, and turneth it upside down, and scattereth abroad the inhabitants thereof.
2 And it shall be, as with the people, so with the priest; as with the servant, so with his master; as with the maid, so with her mistress; as with the buyer, so with the seller; as with the lender, so with the borrower; as with the taker of usury, so with the giver of usury to him.
3 The land shall be utterly emptied, and utterly spoiled: for the LORD hath spoken this word.
4 The earth mourneth and fadeth away, the world languisheth and fadeth away, the haughty people of the earth do languish.
5 The earth also is defiled under the inhabitants thereof; because they have transgressed the laws, changed the ordinance, broken the everlasting covenant.
6 Therefore hath the curse devoured the earth, and they that dwell therein are desolate: therefore the inhabitants of the earth are burned, and few men left.
7 The new wine mourneth, the vine languisheth, all the merryhearted do sigh.
8 The mirth of tabrets ceaseth, the noise of them that rejoice endeth, the joy of the harp ceaseth.
9 They shall not drink wine with a song; strong drink shall be bitter to them that drink it.
10 The city of confusion is broken down: every house is shut up, that no man may come in.
11 There is a crying for wine in the streets; all joy is darkened, the mirth of the land is gone.
12 In the city is left desolation, and the gate is smitten with destruction.
13 When thus it shall be in the midst of the land among the people, there shall be as the shaking of an olive tree, and as the gleaning grapes when the vintage is done.
14 They shall lift up their voice, they shall sing for the majesty of the LORD, they shall cry aloud from the sea.
15 Wherefore glorify ye the LORD in the fires, even the name of the LORD God of Israel in the isles of the sea.
16 From the uttermost part of the earth have we heard songs, even glory to the righteous. But I said, My leanness, my leanness, woe unto me! the treacherous dealers have dealt treacherously; yea, the treacherous dealers have dealt very treacherously.
17 Fear, and the pit, and the snare, are upon thee, O inhabitant of the earth.
18 And it shall come to pass, that he who fleeth from the noise of the fear shall fall into the pit; and he that cometh up out of the midst of the pit shall be taken in the snare: for the windows from on high are open, and the foundations of the earth do shake.
19 The earth is utterly broken down, the earth is clean dissolved, the earth is moved exceedingly.
20 The earth shall reel to and fro like a drunkard, and shall be removed like a cottage; and the transgression thereof shall be heavy upon it; and it shall fall, and not rise again.
21 And it shall come to pass in that day, that the LORD shall punish the host of the high ones that are on high, and the kings of the earth upon the earth.
22 And they shall be gathered together, as prisoners are gathered in the pit, and shall be shut up in the prison, and after many days shall they be visited.
23 Then the moon shall be confounded, and the sun ashamed, when the LORD of hosts shall reign in mount Zion, and in Jerusalem, and before his ancients gloriously.

Chapter 71 “David’s sin and repentance”

This chapter is based on 2 Samuel 11; 12.

The Bible has little to say in praise of men. Little space is given to recounting the virtues of even the best men who have ever lived. This silence is not without purpose; it is not without a lesson. All the good qualities that men possess are the gift of God; their good deeds are performed by the grace of God through Christ. Since they owe all to God the glory of whatever they are or do belongs to Him alone; they are but instruments in His hands. More than this—as all the lessons of Bible history teach—it is a perilous thing to praise or exalt men; for if one comes to lose sight of his entire dependence on God, and to trust to his own strength, he is sure to fall. Man is contending with foes who are stronger than he. “We wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against wicked spirits in high places.” Ephesians 6:12, margin. It is impossible for us in our own strength to maintain the conflict; and whatever diverts the mind from God, whatever leads to self-exaltation or to self-dependence, is surely preparing the way for our overthrow. The tenor of the Bible is to inculcate distrust of human power and to encourage trust in divine power. {PP 717.1; PP.707.1}

It was the spirit of self-confidence and self-exaltation that prepared the way for David’s fall. Flattery and the subtle allurements of power and luxury were not without effect upon him. Intercourse with surrounding nations also exerted an influence for evil. According to the customs prevailing among Eastern rulers, crimes not to be tolerated in subjects were uncondemned in the king; the monarch was not under obligation to exercise the same self-restraint as the subject. All this tended to lessen David’s sense of the exceeding sinfulness of sin. And instead of relying in humility upon the power of Jehovah, he began to trust to his own wisdom and might. As soon as Satan can separate the soul from God, the only Source of strength, he will seek to arouse the unholy desires of man’s carnal nature. The work of the enemy is not abrupt; it is not, at the outset, sudden and startling; it is a secret undermining of the strongholds of principle. It begins in apparently small things—the neglect to be true to God and to rely upon Him wholly, the disposition to follow the customs and practices of the world. {PP 717.2; PP.708.1}

Before the conclusion of the war with the Ammonites, David, leaving the conduct of the army to Joab, returned to Jerusalem. The Syrians had already submitted to Israel, and the complete overthrow of the Ammonites appeared certain. David was surrounded by the fruits of victory and the honors of his wise and able rule. It was now, while he was at ease and unguarded, that the tempter seized the opportunity to occupy his mind. The fact that God had taken David into so close connection with Himself and had manifested so great favor toward him, should have been to him the strongest of incentives to preserve his character unblemished. But when in ease and self-security he let go his hold upon God, David yielded to Satan and brought upon his soul the stain of guilt. He, the Heaven-appointed leader of the nation, chosen by God to execute His law, himself trampled upon its precepts. He who should have been a terror to evildoers, by his own act strengthened their hands. {PP 718.1; PP.708.3}

Amid the perils of his earlier life David in conscious integrity could trust his case with God. The Lord’s hand had guided him safely past the unnumbered snares that had been laid for his feet. But now, guilty and unrepentant, he did not ask help and guidance from Heaven, but sought to extricate himself from the dangers in which sin had involved him. Bathsheba, whose fatal beauty had proved a snare to the king, was the wife of Uriah the Hittite, one of David’s bravest and most faithful officers. None could foresee what would be the result should the crime become known. The law of God pronounced the adulterer guilty of death, and the proud-spirited soldier, so shamefully wronged, might avenge himself by taking the life of the king or by exciting the nation to revolt. {PP 718.2; PP.709.1}

Every effort which David made to conceal his guilt proved unavailing. He had betrayed himself into the power of Satan; danger surrounded him, dishonor more bitter than death was before him. There appeared but one way of escape, and in his desperation he was hurried on to add murder to adultery. He who had compassed the destruction of Saul was seeking to lead David also to ruin. Though the temptations were different, they were alike in leading to transgression of God’s law. David reasoned that if Uriah were slain by the hand of enemies in battle, the guilt of his death could not be traced home to the king, Bathsheba would be free to become David’s wife, suspicion could be averted, and the royal honor would be maintained. {PP 718.3; PP.709.2}

Uriah was made the bearer of his own death warrant. A letter sent by his hand to Joab from the king commanded, “Set ye Uriah in the forefront of the hottest battle, and retire ye from him, that he may be smitten, and die.” Joab, already stained with the guilt of one wanton murder, did not hesitate to obey the king’s instructions, and Uriah fell by the sword of the children of Ammon. {PP 719.1; PP.709.3}

Heretofore David’s record as a ruler had been such as few monarchs have ever equaled. It is written of him that he “executed judgment and justice unto all his people.” 2 Samuel 8:15. His integrity had won the confidence and fealty of the nation. But as he departed from God and yielded himself to the wicked one, he became for the time the agent of Satan; yet he still held the position and authority that God had given him, and because of this, claimed obedience that would imperil the soul of him who should yield it. And Joab, whose allegiance had been given to the king rather than to God, transgressed God’s law because the king commanded it. {PP 719.2; PP.709.4}

David’s power had been given him by God, but to be exercised only in harmony with the divine law. When he commanded that which was contrary to God’s law, it became sin to obey. “The powers that be are ordained of God” (Romans 13:1), but we are not to obey them contrary to God’s law. The apostle Paul, writing to the Corinthians, sets forth the principle by which we should be governed. He says, “Be ye followers of me, even as I also am of Christ.” 1 Corinthians 11:1. {PP 719.3; PP.710.1}

An account of the execution of his order was sent to David, but so carefully worded as not to implicate either Joab or the king. Joab “charged the messenger saying, When thou hast made an end of telling the matters of the war unto the king, and if so be that the king’s wrath arise, … then say thou, Thy servant Uriah the Hittite is dead also. So the messenger went, and came and showed David all that Joab had sent him for.” {PP 719.4; PP.710.2}

The king’s answer was, “Thus shalt thou say unto Joab, Let not this thing displease thee, for the sword devoureth one as well as another: make thy battle more strong against the city, and overthrow it: and encourage thou him.” {PP 720.1; PP.710.2}

Bathsheba observed the customary days of mourning for her husband; and at their close “David sent and fetched her to his house, and she became his wife.” He whose tender conscience and high sense of honor would not permit him, even when in peril of his life, to put forth his hand against the Lord’s anointed, had so fallen that he could wrong and murder one of his most faithful and most valiant soldiers, and hope to enjoy undisturbed the reward of his sin. Alas! how had the fine gold become dim! how had the most fine gold changed! {PP 720.2; PP.710.3}

From the beginning Satan has portrayed to men the gains to be won by transgression. Thus he seduced angels. Thus he tempted Adam and Eve to sin. And thus he is still leading multitudes away from obedience to God. The path of transgression is made to appear desirable; “but the end thereof are the ways of death.” Proverbs 14:12. Happy they who, having ventured in this way, learn how bitter are the fruits of sin, and turn from it betimes. God in His mercy did not leave David to be lured to utter ruin by the deceitful rewards of sin. {PP 720.3; PP.710.4}

For the sake of Israel also there was a necessity for God to interpose. As time passed on, David’s sin toward Bathsheba became known, and suspicion was excited that he had planned the death of Uriah. The Lord was dishonored. He had favored and exalted David, and David’s sin misrepresented the character of God and cast reproach upon His name. It tended to lower the standard of godliness in Israel, to lessen in many minds the abhorrence of sin; while those who did not love and fear God were by it emboldened in transgression. {PP 720.4; PP.711.1}

Nathan the prophet was bidden to bear a message of reproof to David. It was a message terrible in its severity. To few sovereigns could such a reproof be given but at the price of certain death to the reprover. Nathan delivered the divine sentence unflinchingly, yet with such heaven-born wisdom as to engage the sympathies of the king, to arouse his conscience, and to call from his lips the sentence of death upon himself. Appealing to David as the divinely appointed guardian of his people’s rights, the prophet repeated a story of wrong and oppression that demanded redress. {PP 720.5; PP.711.2}

“There were two men in one city,” he said, “the one rich, and the other poor. The rich man had exceeding many flocks and herds: but the poor man had nothing, save one little ewe lamb, which he had bought and nourished up: and it grew up together with him, and with his children; it did eat of his own meat, and drank of his own cup, and lay in his bosom, and was unto him as a daughter. And there came a traveler unto the rich man, and he spared to take of his own flock and of his own herd, to dress for the wayfaring man that was come unto him; but took the poor man’s lamb, and dressed it for the man that was come to him.” {PP 721.1; PP.711.3}

The anger of the king was roused, and he exclaimed, “As the Lord liveth, the man that hath done this thing is worthy to die. And he shall restore the lamb fourfold, because he did this thing, and because he had no pity.” 2 Samuel 12:5, 6, margin. {PP 721.2; PP.711.4}

Nathan fixed his eyes upon the king; then, lifting his right hand to heaven, he solemnly declared, “Thou art the man.” “Wherefore,” he continued, “hast thou despised the commandment of the Lord, to do evil in His sight?” The guilty may attempt, as David had done, to conceal their crime from men; they may seek to bury the evil deed forever from human sight or knowledge; but “all things are naked and opened unto the eyes of Him with whom we have to do.” Hebrews 4:13. “There is nothing covered, that shall not be revealed; and hid, that shall not be known.” Matthew 10:26. {PP 721.3; PP.711.5}

Nathan declared: “Thus saith the Lord God of Israel, I anointed thee king over Israel, and I delivered thee out of the hand of Saul…. Wherefore hast thou despised the commandment of the Lord, to do evil in His sight? thou hast killed Uriah the Hittite with the sword, and hast taken his wife to be thy wife, and hast slain him with the sword of the children of Ammon. Now therefore the sword shall never depart from thine house…. Behold, I will raise up evil against thee out of thine own house, and I will take thy wives before thine eyes, and give them unto thy neighbor…. For thou didst it secretly; but I will do this thing before all Israel, and before the sun.” {PP 721.4; PP.712.1}

The prophet’s rebuke touched the heart of David; conscience was aroused; his guilt appeared in all its enormity. His soul was bowed in penitence before God. With trembling lips he said, “I have sinned against the Lord.” All wrong done to others reaches back from the injured one to God. David had committed a grievous sin, toward both Uriah and Bathsheba, and he keenly felt this. But infinitely greater was his sin against God. {PP 722.1; PP.712.2}

Though there would be found none in Israel to execute the sentence of death upon the anointed of the Lord, David trembled, lest, guilty and unforgiven, he should be cut down by the swift judgment of God. But the message was sent him by the prophet, “The Lord also hath put away thy sin; thou shalt not die.” Yet justice must be maintained. The sentence of death was transferred from David to the child of his sin. Thus the king was given opportunity for repentance; while to him the suffering and death of the child, as a part of his punishment, was far more bitter than his own death could have been. The prophet said, “Because by this deed thou hast given great occasion to the enemies of the Lord to blaspheme, the child also that is born unto thee shall surely die.” {PP 722.2; PP.712.3}

When his child was stricken, David, with fasting and deep humiliation, pleaded for its life. He put off his royal robes, he laid aside his crown, and night after night he lay upon the earth, in heartbroken grief interceding for the innocent one suffering for his guilt. “The elders of his house arose, and went to him, to raise him up from the earth: but he would not.” Often when judgments had been pronounced upon persons or cities, humiliation and repentance had turned aside the blow, and the Ever-Merciful, swift to pardon, had sent messengers of peace. Encouraged by this thought, David persevered in his supplication so long as the child was spared. Upon learning that it was dead, he quietly submitted to the decree of God. The first stroke had fallen of that retribution which he himself had declared just; but David, trusting in God’s mercy, was not without comfort. {PP 722.3; PP.712.4}

Very many, reading the history of David’s fall, have inquired, “Why has this record been made public? Why did God see fit to throw open to the world this dark passage in the life of one so highly honored of Heaven?” The prophet, in his reproof to David, had declared concerning his sin, “By this deed thou hast given great occasion to the enemies of the Lord to blaspheme.” Through successive generations infidels have pointed to the character of David, bearing this dark stain, and have exclaimed in triumph and derision, “This is the man after God’s own heart!” Thus a reproach has been brought upon religion, God and His word have been blasphemed, souls have been hardened in unbelief, and many, under a cloak of piety, have become bold in sin. {PP 722.4; PP.713.1}

But the history of David furnishes no countenance to sin. It was when he was walking in the counsel of God that he was called a man after God’s own heart. When he sinned, this ceased to be true of him until by repentance he had returned to the Lord. The word of God plainly declares, “The thing that David had done was evil in the eyes of the Lord.” 2 Samuel 11:27, margin. And the Lord said to David by the prophet, “Wherefore hast thou despised the commandment of the Lord, to do evil in His sight? … Now therefore the sword shall never depart from thine house; because thou hast despised Me.” Though David repented of his sin and was forgiven and accepted by the Lord, he reaped the baleful harvest of the seed he himself had sown. The judgments upon him and upon his house testify to God’s abhorrence of the sin. {PP 723.1; PP.713.2}

Heretofore God’s providence had preserved David against all the plottings of his enemies, and had been directly exercised to restrain Saul. But David’s transgression had changed his relation to God. The Lord could not in any wise sanction iniquity. He could not exercise His power to protect David from the results of his sin as he had protected him from the enmity of Saul. {PP 723.2; PP.713.3}

There was a great change in David himself. He was broken in spirit by the consciousness of his sin and its far-reaching results. He felt humbled in the eyes of his subjects. His influence was weakened. Hitherto his prosperity had been attributed to his conscientious obedience to the commandments of the Lord. But now his subjects, having a knowledge of his sin, would be led to sin more freely. His authority in his own household, his claim to respect and obedience from his sons, was weakened. A sense of his guilt kept him silent when he should have condemned sin; it made his arm feeble to execute justice in his house. His evil example exerted its influence upon his sons, and God would not interpose to prevent the result. He would permit things to take their natural course, and thus David was severely chastised. {PP 723.3; PP.714.1}

For a whole year after his fall David lived in apparent security; there was no outward evidence of God’s displeasure. But the divine sentence was hanging over him. Swiftly and surely a day of judgment and retribution was approaching, which no repentance could avert, agony and shame that would darken his whole earthly life. Those who, by pointing to the example of David, try to lessen the guilt of their own sins, should learn from the Bible record that the way of transgression is hard. Though like David they should turn from their evil course, the results of sin, even in this life, will be found bitter and hard to bear. {PP 723.4; PP.714.2}

God intended the history of David’s fall to serve as a warning that even those whom He has greatly blessed and favored are not to feel secure and neglect watchfulness and prayer. And thus it has proved to those who in humility have sought to learn the lesson that God designed to teach. From generation to generation thousands have thus been led to realize their own danger from the tempter’s power. The fall of David, one so greatly honored by the Lord, has awakened in them distrust of self. They have felt that God alone could keep them by His power through faith. Knowing that in Him was their strength and safety, they have feared to take the first step on Satan’s ground. {PP 724.1; PP.714.3}

Even before the divine sentence was pronounced against David he had begun to reap the fruit of transgression. His conscience was not at rest. The agony of spirit which he then endured is brought to view in the thirty-second psalm. He says: {PP 724.2; PP.714.4}

“Blessed is he whose transgression is forgiven, whose sin is covered.

Blessed is the man unto whom the Lord imputeth not iniquity,

And in whose spirit there is no guile.

When I kept silence, my bones waxed old

Through my roaring all the day long.

For day and night Thy hand was heavy upon me:

My moisture was changed as with the drought of summer.” {PP 724.3; PP.715.1}

Psalm 32:1-4, R.V.

And the fifty-first psalm is an expression of David’s repentance, when the message of reproof came to him from God: {PP 724.4; PP.715.2}

“Have mercy upon me, O God, according to Thy loving-kindness:

According unto the multitude of Thy tender mercies blot out

my transgressions.

Wash me throughly from mine iniquity, and cleanse me from my sin.

For I acknowledge my transgressions: and my sin is ever before me….

Purge me with hyssop, and I shall be clean: wash me, and I

shall be whiter than snow.

Make me to hear joy and gladness;

That the bones which Thou hast broken may rejoice.

Hide Thy face from my sins,

And blot out all mine iniquities.

Create in me a clean heart, O God;

And renew a right spirit within me.

Cast me not away from Thy presence;

And take not Thy Holy Spirit from me.

Restore unto me the joy of Thy salvation;

And uphold me with Thy free Spirit.

Then will I teach transgressors Thy ways;

And sinners shall be converted unto Thee.

Deliver me from bloodguiltiness, O God, Thou God of my salvation:

And my tongue shall sing aloud of Thy righteousness.” {PP 724.5; PP.715.3}

Psalm 51:1-14.

Thus in a sacred song to be sung in the public assemblies of his people, in the presence of the court—priests and judges, princes and men of war—and which would preserve to the latest generation the knowledge of his fall, the king of Israel recounted his sin, his repentance, and his hope of pardon through the mercy of God. Instead of endeavoring to conceal his guilt he desired that others might be instructed by the sad history of his fall. {PP 725.1; PP.715.4}

David’s repentance was sincere and deep. There was no effort to palliate his crime. No desire to escape the judgments threatened, inspired his prayer. But he saw the enormity of his transgression against God; he saw the defilement of his soul; he loathed his sin. It was not for pardon only that he prayed, but for purity of heart. David did not in despair give over the struggle. In the promises of God to repentant sinners he saw the evidence of his pardon and acceptance. {PP 725.2; PP.716.1}

“For Thou desirest not sacrifice; else would I give it:

Thou delightest not in burnt offering.

The sacrifices of God are a broken spirit:

A broken and a contrite heart, O God, Thou wilt not despise.” {PP 725.3; PP.716.2}

Psalm 51:16, 17.

Though David had fallen, the Lord lifted him up. He was now more fully in harmony with God and in sympathy with his fellow men than before he fell. In the joy of his release he sang: {PP 726.1; PP.716.3}

“I acknowledged my sin unto Thee, and mine iniquity have I not hid.

I said, I will confess my transgressions unto the Lord;

And Thou forgavest the iniquity of my sin….

Thou art my hiding place; Thou shalt preserve me from trouble;

Thou shalt compass me about with songs of deliverance.” {PP 726.2; PP.716.4}

Psalm 32:5-7.

Many have murmured at what they called God’s injustice in sparing David, whose guilt was so great, after having rejected Saul for what appear to them to be far less flagrant sins. But David humbled himself and confessed his sin, while Saul despised reproof and hardened his heart in impenitence. {PP 726.3; PP.716.5}

This passage in David’s history is full of significance to the repenting sinner. It is one of the most forcible illustrations given us of the struggles and temptations of humanity, and of genuine repentance toward God and faith in our Lord Jesus Christ. Through all the ages it has proved a source of encouragement to souls that, having fallen into sin, were struggling under the burden of their guilt. Thousands of the children of God, who have been betrayed into sin, when ready to give up to despair have remembered how David’s sincere repentance and confession were accepted by God, notwithstanding he suffered for his transgression; and they also have taken courage to repent and try again to walk in the way of God’s commandments. {PP 726.4; PP.716.6}

Whoever under the reproof of God will humble the soul with confession and repentance, as did David, may be sure that there is hope for him. Whoever will in faith accept God’s promises, will find pardon. The Lord will never cast away one truly repentant soul. He has given this promise: “Let him take hold of My strength, that he may make peace with Me; and he shall make peace with Me.” Isaiah 27:5. “Let the wicked forsake his way, and the unrighteous man his thoughts: and let him return unto the Lord, and He will have mercy upon him; and to our God, for He will abundantly pardon.” Isaiah 55:7. {PP 726.5; PP.717.1}

Beloved, December 11, 2018. In dreams, I saw that many people who recognized what their duty was and did not execute it, or accepted it, will be stragglers. This duty covered all aspects; physical, mental and spiritual. {Daisy Escalante: 12-11-2018 , en.p1}

I was let to know that God who calls empowers, but the individual for not wanting to leave his comfort zone, and daring to ignore the call of the Eternal, soon a cloud of blackness will seize his being and this will disable him for the entrusted work. I saw that it was a terrible sin to resist the call of the Holy Spirit, because to reject this call is equivalent to the loss of salvation. {Daisy Escalante: 12-11-2018 , en.p2}

At that moment my companion said: “this century, at this moment, there is no time to lose, the marriage preparations are ready, and the book is quickly worked, everything is prepared for the final outcome! a delay, now, thus, would be fatal!.” {Daisy Escalante: 12-11-2018 , en.p3}

I saw how people I knew and did not know had mental struggles, whether or not to obey the orders given by God for this hour, and the more they resisted, a dark veil like a night shadow covered them. Angels exalted in glory contemplated this moment, and if the person fell to his knees in search of help, they moved quickly bringing light where the darkness was; I also saw others where a lot of light shone in them, and these in their delay, it was extinguished until it was in total darkness. {Daisy Escalante: 12-11-2018 , en.p4}

I was allowed to know that our mind together with the free will is a very powerful weapon to be able to overcome if we submit them to God; but if we ignore this and let ourselves be intimidated by the enemy, we will still be defeated even with all the advantages. {Daisy Escalante: 12-11-2018 , en.p5}

I saw that our urgent work is to cry out for deliverance from sin in our lives and to prepare ourselves with the earthly instructions that God has already stipulated long ago. The God of Israel can give inheritance to His children even in the most inhospitable deserts, it is only to consecrate ourselves to Him and walk to do His will. It is not God’s plan that no one tries to obtain anything by dishonest gain or robbery, the Holy One of Israel is powerful to grant us what He knows we need. It is not His will that His children snatch what does not belong to them, “heaven is order and justice, peace and love,” I was told, “and everyone who acts unworthily will not be able to have God’s protection.” {Daisy Escalante: 12-11-2018 , en.p6}

“So be zealous,” I was told, “submissive and just, and ministering angels will guide you along safe paths.”

May God grant that this be so, it is my request and prayer. May the Lord bless you. {Daisy Escalante: 12-11-2018 , en.p7}

Beloved, May 25, 2019. The word of the Lord came to me saying: “the accurate touch is not given, those who should be the standard bearers are bringing the light to the surface, little by little with fear, to a world that is sentenced to death, they are making them waver in front of the line of fire.” {Daisy Escalante: 05-25-2019 #01, en.p1}

“After the living testimony that will impact the world, the evidence will be given; the tables of the testimony will be seen as a confirmation of the testimony already given, but this evidence will no longer have an effect for salvation for those that it was not convincing; the testimony, this first will be their last opportunity for the beings condemned to death, so that they obtain their salvation by accepting and reflecting this testimony in themselves; No one who leaves this process and finality on a side will be able to receive the eternal inheritance. Every human being will have to decide for their salvation, but it is not only to decide, but to go through the process of acceptance, and this will only be done through a constant humiliation and self-denial before a “it is written;” and follow to this, even despite of his own life; there is no one, not one, who can be known to be saved without having reflected the character of God even while in this world; Do not be deceived, the mocker, problematic, accuser, liar, spiteful, the one who seeks argument and the scoffer, the one who speaks behind his brother’s back bad testimony, will not inherit eternal life. Know people my times and my feasts, my calendar, or do you not know that all my movements are in these times? How can you forget this? Are you not Bereans, archaeologists? Whoever hinders this will be accused before God and guilty of judgment.” {Daisy Escalante: 05-25-2019 #01, en.p2}

“Woe Jerusalem! Woe Judah! Woe Israel! How could you forget my sayings, my decrees, and my statutes? Is my voice a suggestion to your ears? As I live that not a jot or a tittle will pass because all this is for salvation; repent and return to the old paths because if not I will bring great calamity upon you, because by bribery and haughtiness of spirit you do not heed the sayings of the Eternal; because in the darkness is planned the destruction of my people, and leave the confusion unresolved; Why are you like Thomas? That when they see they believe, but by faith you do not activate? As I live that no one who does not act by faith will be given an eternal inheritance, my eye will not forgive arrogance or haughtiness of spirit; Do you not know the times when summer and winter come?” {Daisy Escalante: 05-25-2019 #01, en.p3}

“Because the truth was withheld and fought against it, to you who was entrusted with great light, I declare this against you today: scarcity, disgrace and great mortality; your flesh will be thrown among the wicked because your haughtiness did not allow you to recognize the day of your visitation, and you rejected the voice and the supplication of the Holy one of Israel; depart my people and do not touch the unclean! so that you also do not perish in this great anguish. Be faithful until death and I will give you the crown of life.” {Daisy Escalante: 05-25-2019 #01, en.p4}

At that moment, beloved, I did not receive any more word from the Lord. May God grant that each one of us can be one of those who tell the truth, no matter the consequences, so that we can be accepted in Christ Jesus, and above all that we live it, that we reflect it in our lives, and that we ask the Lord of the harvest, to let Him put His Holy Spirit, His character, in us, so that we can impact a world that perishes and we can go soon to Canaan. May the Lord bless you all. {Daisy Escalante: 05-25-2019 #01, en.p5}

January 25, 2020. In a dream I saw that some people were working near a mountain that had many rocks, and near this mountain there was a street that gave to the city; The chief of these workers demanded that they continue working in the street, which had the mountain, close with these rocks; Suddenly a strong earthquake hit the place and the rocks began to fall, and the workers ran towards the street, leaving even the expensive tools in their path. {Daisy Escalante: 01-25-2020 #01, en.p1}

Then the scene changed and I saw how in the city, education was very vain for children, youth and adults; but even so, rigorously necessary to be able to be part of that city. {Daisy Escalante: 01-25-2020 #01, en.p2}

I saw how children, young people and adults were dull by said education and their agile, planning and creative mind was reduced to shatters so that the education they received monopolized their senses, thus entering a classification that was ruled by a wealthy man, and he thus, only put in front of them the options that he wanted in favor of guaranteeing employment or else they would be removed from the support of the city; I saw how many people, many, but many lived nervous, busy and anguished, for fear of losing the support of the city and who controlled it. {Daisy Escalante: 01-25-2020 #01, en.p3}

I saw how this man, where there was a missionary training place, destroyed it, and put a great fair with many amusement machines, music and many colored lights; I went to this man and said: “why are you doing this?” And his assistant answered me: “this is his job, he cares about everyone’s happiness.” And he laughed sarcastically. And I answered: “what happiness? This only numbs the senses so that you can hold them in your hand and be able to control them with ease.” He looked at me and replied: “this is my job, and they like it.” {Daisy Escalante: 01-25-2020 #01, en.p4}

I saw that many did not think of cause and effect, and indulged in the debauchery of the entertainment, without measuring the consequences of their lost time. I warned them loudly but only one person woke up from that vile lethargy and told me: “help me! this place ends my being!,” help me.” I grabbed that woman by the arm and helped her until we were out of that place of perdition, and out of that city that, like snake venom, lulled everyone who was in it until the poison killed them. {Daisy Escalante: 01-25-2020 #01, en.p5}

This woman and I went to a countryside, and we were there with others tranquil, and every day we did the part we had to do to conscience. There, that woman praised and glorified God for her freedom. {Daisy Escalante: 01-25-2020 #01, en.p6}

Suddenly I went to another countryside, and there I saw a man and a woman, they were preparing to enter the road to a countryside, to be ready for a storm that was seen coming quickly, I saw them riding in a pickup truck and I told them: “If you go by that road, you should not go by pickup truck, you should only travel on foot;” But they did not pay attention and, mounting all kinds of things in the pickup truck, they advanced along the road, and at a critical point on the road they lost the pickup truck and all its contents, and they were just left alive. The storm came and began to whip them, and I ran to them with others that so giving them verbal guidance we were able to help them not to perish. I reprimanded them for their wreckless walk and the woman answered me: “the fear for survival led me to this.” And the man said: “the fear of starvation blinded me.” {Daisy Escalante: 01-25-2020 #01, en.p7}

At that moment I heard a voice, very, very strong from the heavens that said: “the moment comes and it is, where all the good that the world knows will be turn upside down, and the world will see the true nuances of the one who governs it, but My eyes will only watch over, protect and take care of My chosen ones;” many! many! many!” He repeated, “of those who knew of this moment, decided to ignore it, but their time will come, when between tears and calamity will desire what they despised, and they will not have it because they despised the day of small things and despised the plan that I devised for the salvation of their souls.” {Daisy Escalante: 01-25-2020 #01, en.p8}

My being trembled upon hearing these words, and my tears could not be contained, and I exclaimed: “Oh Lord! How many times it was warned of this? How many times and now what to do?” Said the voice: “go you and your house, and get everything ready, because the moment has come! And He continued saying: “many will run from here to there, and will seek salvation, but at the time of acting, based on their knowledge, not only were they rebellious to this but they made those who warned them suffer, but now the suffering is over them.” And He continued saying: “no one who omits his duty, and despises the days of small things, will be able to overcome; death breeds, feeds, and spreads in cities, and everyone who knowingly remains there in disobedience, it will come to him; It is the moment of darkness and its course intensifies, only strict obedience to My laws, mandates and statutes, will be able to free you.” {Daisy Escalante: 01-25-2020 #01, en.p9}

Beloved, there I woke up. With such a tremendous sense of urgency within me! May God grant that each one of you can understand it, and we can have everything ready, clinging to Christ Jesus, that we obey everything that we know that He is indicating to us so that we can be protected by His protective arm. May the Lord bless you. {Daisy Escalante: 01-25-2020 #01, en.p10}

January 25, 2021. In dreams, I saw how one person accused another of many situations. And the one who accused rejoiced in doing so. And the accused one was very sad and crestfallen. I saw, once in a while, lifting the head and see her accuser, and could only say: “no, that is not so. Oh, no! This did not happen that way.” I saw that the accusing person could not stop accusing, and each time with much anger until it turned into destructive anger. I then saw that the accused person fell on her knees and prayed in great agony, I was able to notice that her eyes were full of tears and continued praying. {Daisy Escalante: 01-25-2021 , en.p1}

Soon, a light surrounded her and I was able to notice that her face was filled with peace. She got up from her knees, opened her eyes and I heard her say from her lips: “This for which you accuse me is not true, for such and such reason; and this other is not so for such and such a reason.” And, thus, each accusation was combated by the truth that flowed from that light that invested her. In this way, I was let known that help will come from on High before the adversities and accusations —if these are really accusations, since any unconfessed sin or illegal action will deprive us of very important and necessary help to prevail in the face of distressing situations. {Daisy Escalante: 01-25-2021 , en.p2}

I was let known that it is extremely necessary to be on account with God every moment and day, because portentous time is before us. Every illicit practice, every sinful thought, every idle attitude and every unconfessed hasty word will be fatal before this hour, because it will deprive us of heavenly help. God grant that we allow ourselves to be helped and that we be able to be victorious in Christ Jesus. May the Lord bless us. {Daisy Escalante: 01-25-2021 , en.p3}

February 6, 2021. In dreams, I was made to know that I was to witness something. To let me go see and pay close attention. He told me: “observe.”

I saw several known and unknown families, and they all lived in different kinds of chaos. I saw them tormented, some; and others, with great concern; and others, with great anger, offended many. Their life had been thrown into this chaos, I was told, by their poor decisions. But, without admitting it, they attributed their misfortunes to everything, and everyone, except themselves. Each thing that they did not recognize, of the cause of their misfortune, increased more the chaos in their lives. They lived life without thinking that the Eternal was taking review of their actions, and now —unprotected, to their fate—, they did not lament, but instead grumbled of their great misfortune. I saw some people try to make them understand their real situation, but they became more violent. I saw that the people who tried to help them turned away from them, because they could not make them enter in reason. These people who lived this chaos, it was terrible to be close to them! Because everyone who came near them and followed them [in] their way of life was infected by their chaos. That’s how I saw them, to their fate. {Daisy Escalante: 02-06-2021 , en.p1}

The scene changed and I saw a great depravity at city level, each time it became [more] horrible. I was told that a masterful hand is following his plan outlined for this hour, and that no attempt will stop him, because there is still a deadline for this. {Daisy Escalante: 02-06-2021 , en.p2}

At that moment, beloved, there I woke up. May God grant that we can understand all these things. God grant that we not be rebellious to the Word of the Eternal, because certainly submission to the Word of the Lord is the only thing that will guarantee us eternal life. And not because of our merits, because we know we have none, but because of the merits of Christ Jesus. {Daisy Escalante: 02-06-2021 , en.p3}

Let the Holy Spirit flood our lives, to search the recesses of our mind, our heart, our being, and let us see. Let that be our prayer, that it let us see our real condition so that we can go to the teacher’s feet with a contrite and humbled heart. And we can, there, implore His forgiveness, reconcile with the Beloved while He is still, still, practicing as a lawyer. And, there, let’s get right with Him because that is certainly going to be the cause for us to have a great victory in Christ Jesus. If not, otherwise, beloved brothers, we will perish because by ourselves we will be able to do nothing. May God grant that we can understand and that we be doers of the Word of Truth! May the Lord bless us! {Daisy Escalante: 02-06-2021 , en.p4}
