"Miracles and Divine Alignments in Bodies as We Magnify the Lord!"

Lana Vawser, Brisbane, Queensland, Australia

Recently, I had a vision where I saw many of God's people who were battling long-standing health issues as well as weird and random physical symptoms in their bodies. There was discouragement and almost despair that they were facing, as they felt caught in this "cycle" of health issues and weird/random physical symptoms with no breakthrough...yet.

The Lord showed me that the enemy has recently been coming against these people, attacking them with tremendous FEAR over the physical issues they have been experiencing with the weird/random physical symptoms. In the vision, I watched as these black figures came alongside God's people and began to whisper lies into their ears. They said things like, "This is what it is," or "This is what is going to happen..." The whole intention of this attack was to lock God's people in fear and to MAGNIFY the fear and these physical symptoms and health issues.

Don't Magnify Fear...Magnify Me!

Then the Lord said to me: "Lana, pay attention to the word 'MAGNIFY'! The enemy is attempting to MAGNIFY fear over health issues through his lies. The enemy is attempting to MAGNIFY FEAR with his lies and false decrees to keep My people bound. But the truth is, I am releasing another key to break these health issues and cycles in their lives." (Photo via Unsplash)

The definition of "magnify" is: 1. Make (something) appear larger than it is, especially with a lens or microscope. 2. Praise highly; glorify. SYNONYMNS: to enhance, boost, expand, intensify.

The Lord then spoke: "There are MANY keys I am releasing in this new era to see these health issues, random physical/weird symptoms broken. But right now, for those who are feeling the plaguing, tormenting fear over these issues, I am making a decree: MAGNIFY NOT the symptoms. Magnify NOT the health issues with your focus. MAGNIFY ME!

"Praise Me over these symptoms. Praise Me over the health issues. Praise Me over the pain. Praise Me over the fear. Be FEROCIOUS in your FOCUS on FAITH and PRAISE! The enemy is looking for the agreement of My people so he can magnify FEAR, but I decree that as you MAGNIFY ME there shall be MAJOR, sudden alignments and miracles in HEALTH and BODIES!"

"Oh, magnify the Lord with me, and let us exalt His name together!" (Psalm 34:3 ESV)

Radical Restoration and Alignment

I then watched as these people began to intentionally LOOK AWAY from the health issues, from the random/weird symptoms, and MAGNIFY the Lord instead. They stood and magnified the name of JESUS for who He is and His Word, and His ability to heal their bodies. I saw Jesus come and place His hands on their heads and then on their backs, and it looked like He was making a chiropractic adjustment. I could hear the word "ALIGNMENT" being decreed in the spirit. MAJOR demonstrations of the power of praise as well as the power in JESUS' name began to manifest!

The Lord spoke again: "I am bringing RADICAL RESTORATION and ALIGNMENT in bodies and RESTORING strength to the physical bodies of My people as they MAGNIFY Me."

As this ferocious faith was arising through praise and magnifying the Lord with intentionality, I watched as MIRACLES suddenly burst forth in peoples' bodies. There was an intense shaking taking place within them by the power of His Spirit as the "walls" of these health issues/physical symptoms began to come DOWN once and for all.

I watched symptoms that were WITHIN bodies suddenly burst out and fall to the ground. Chains of health issues suddenly fell to the ground. Tumors suddenly fell out of peoples' bodies and onto the ground. The people of God then began to dance upon these random/weird health issues and symptoms and there was major victory bursting forth supernaturally in peoples bodies.

Smokescreen Symptoms

I then heard the Lord say, "SMOKESCREEN SYMPTOMS." When I heard Him say this I saw the people who had been battling these random/weird symptoms; the ones where the enemy has been whispering lies of, "This is what's wrong with you..." I saw many of them fearing for their lives and had a strong sense of foreboding, thinking things like, "Is this going to come upon me?" (Photo via Unsplash)

It was then that I heard the thundering voice of God: "The enemy is coming against you, lying to you about what is to come. You've been in the constant cycle of fear over your bodies and health, and the enemy is lying to you to trap you again in another foreboding cycle, but these are SMOKESCREEN SYMPTOMS! Don't listen to his lies, for many of you have been assaulted by this spirit of fear manifesting in your physical bodies for years and for some of you, your whole life.

"The REASON the enemy has intensified his attack of fear over physical issues/random/weird symptoms is because I am NOW RESTORING YOUR HEALTH, bringing MAJOR breakthrough and ALIGNMENT. Repent of aligning with fear and trust Me and KNOW that what is before you is strength, restoration of body and increase. DISAGREE with his lies and MAGNIFY ME!

"There is a MAJOR MOVE of My Spirit taking place right now where I am supernaturally restoring bodies, breaking fear and releasing Kingdom keys for divine health. Stand against the lies and KNOW that these are smokescreen symptoms and lies. Physical restoration is upon you."

I saw the Lord draw a line in the sand and He decreed, "NO MORE!" I watched as the tormenting fear regarding health fled.

He decreed again: "What has been part of your story for so long will NO LONGER be part of your story! I have DECREED its end!" (To Subscribe to the Elijah List subscribe here.)

If You Don’t Warn The People, Their Blood Could Be On Your Hands - Michael Snyder THE ECONOMIC COLLAPSE BLOG

If You Don’t Warn The People, Their Blood Could Be On Your Hands Posted: 02 Mar 2016   Michael Snyder  THE ECONOMIC COLLAPSE BLOG Why are so few voices warning the people about what is coming?  We stand at the door of a period of distress that will be unlike anything that any of us have ever known before.  And even though the signs are all around us, very few individuals appear to be willing to stand up and sound the alarm.  Instead, there seems to be a large number of people that are quite eager to criticize the watchmen.   Earlier today, I was having a conversation with a very prominent voice in the alternative media, and we were reflecting on this.  There are so many individuals out there that love to shoot arrows at those that are sounding the alarm, and yet they are doing so little to make a difference themselves. It is easy to sit back on your sofa munching on potato chips as the world around you goes to hell, and it is easy to criticize those that have chosen to have the courage to stand up and warn the people. But it is not easy to stand up and say the hard things that need to be said in a society that does not want to listen. Yes, there are some watchmen out there that are doing a great job of proclaiming the warning message.  I have personally met a number of them, and I am proud to be their friends. Unfortunately, they are few and far between.  Most people either don’t believe that we are on the precipice of disaster, they don’t care enough to warn others, or they are too busy criticizing those that are trying very hard to warn others. And of course you don’t need a media platform to sound the alarm.  We all have family members that need to be warned about what is coming.  We all have friends that need to be warned about what is coming.  Each one of us is uniquely positioned to reach others that may not be able to be reached any other way. In the end, we all have a choice to make.  If we sound the alarm and people choose not to listen, the responsibility for failing to act falls on them. But if we know what is coming and we choose to do nothing to warn others, then we may end up being responsible for their blood.  This is a principle that we even seen in the Scriptures.  The following is what Ezekiel 33:1-6 says… Again the word of the Lord came to me, saying: 2 Son of man, speak to the children of your people and say to them: If I bring a sword upon a land, and the people of the land take a man from among them and set him for their watchman, 3 and he sees the sword come upon the land and blows the trumpet and warns the people, 4 then whoever hears the sound of the trumpet and does not take warning, and a sword comes and takes him away, his blood shall be upon his own head. 5 He heard the sound of the trumpet yet did not take warning. His blood shall be upon himself. But he who takes warning delivers his soul. 6  But if the watchman sees the sword come and does not blow the trumpet and the people are not warned and a sword comes and takes a person from among them, he is taken away in his iniquity. But his blood I will require from the hand of the watchman. Sadly, the few voices that are proclaiming the warning message in our society are being almost completely drowned out by everyone else. Just look at our political leaders.  None of them are warning the American people about what is really coming.  Yes, they are warning that some bad things may happen if the wrong candidate gets elected, but all of them are promising that they can get this country completely turned around if they are elected. Unfortunately, all of them are dead wrong.  None of them are going to be able to keep America from experiencing the great storm that is directly ahead of us. The mainstream media is even worse.  According to the mainstream media, everything is great and things are only going to get even better in the years ahead.  Of course the mainstream media is owned and controlled by the global elite, and just six giant media corporations produce more than 90 percent of the news and entertainment that we all consume. Perhaps most disappointing of all are the religious leaders.  You would think that if anyone should be “sounding the alarm” it would be them.  But instead, ministers all over this country have become absolutely terrified of offending anyone.  Church attendance has been declining for years, and most churches are desperate to do whatever they can to keep people coming back and putting money in the offering plate. So many preachers know what is coming, and yet they have willingly chosen to be silent.  They know that disaster is coming to America, and yet they have decided not to warn the people. Yes, there are some good churches out there, but in general the church in America has failed.  There is very little preaching about sin, repentance or the blood of Jesus anymore.  Rather, most of what is coming from the pulpits these days are just feel good messages that sound like they were directly ripped off from the self-help gurus. Sometimes I get frustrated because I wish that I could do a better job of warning the people.  My articles are far from perfect, but I work very hard on them.  And nobody can accuse me of not trying to sound the alarm.  I have written more than a million words on The Economic Collapse Blog, and I have written more than a million words on End Of The American Dream.  In addition, soon my wife and I will be doing a television show, and we will be posting the videos up on YouTube for free. I am just an ordinary guy that is trying to warn the people as loudly as I can from my little spot on the wall.  When I first started, my readership could have been measured with a microscope, but over time it has grown far beyond what I could have possibly ever imagined. People know that they aren’t getting the truth from the “leaders” of our society, and so they are seeking out alternative sources of information.  Thankfully, the Internet has allowed ordinary people like myself and others to get the warning message out. And of course the warning message is only part of my mission.  I also carry a message of hope, and that is going to be greatly needed in the days ahead. As things completely fall apart during the years to come, millions are going to give in to depression and despair.  Those people are going to need to know that there is hope even in the midst of all the chaos and all the darkness.  My wife and I seek to live in a constant state of “shalom” (the Hebrew word for peace), and we believe that the greatest chapters of our lives are still ahead of us.   Yes, we are heading for times that are going to be more challenging than most people would ever dare to imagine, but there is no other time in human history that we would have rather been alive for.  We boldly look forward to the future, and we plan to bring light to a world that will be drowning in darkness. This optimistic view of the future is going to be a central theme of my new book which should be coming out later this month.  The things that I am going to share about Bible prophecy, the book of Revelation and the challenging years ahead of us are going to really shake up a lot of people out there, and it will likely be one of the most controversial Christian books of 2016. But once again, someone needs to stand up and say the hard things that need to be said. I am sure that I will get some criticism for this article, but that is okay.  I just hope that I can inspire a few others to come up on the wall and help warn America (and the world) about what is rapidly approaching. It doesn’t matter if your voice is big or small. What matters is whether or not you are faithful with what you have been given. Let us sound the alarm while we still can, because time is quickly running out.

You’ve Got Mail - Now Think On This by Steve Martin

You’ve Got Mail

Now Think On This

Steve Martin

  

One of my good wife’s favorite movies is You’ve Got Mail with Meg Ryan and Tom Hanks. It is considered one of those drama/romance genres. A rather cute movie, a love story about a struggling boutique bookseller Kathleen Kelly (Meg Ryan) who meets, and then hates (or the other way around) Joe Fox (Tom Hanks), the owner of the corporate Foxbooks chain store that just moved in across the New York City street.

It is a classic movie which I enjoy watching also. Occasionally we’ll pull the video out, or maybe the DVD. I forget what format we have.

Short version, so as not to spoil it if you choose to check it out on Netflix or Redbox - Joe takes all of Kathleen’s customer business, and then they end up in love. But that only happens after they unknowingly exchange some emails with each other, which in 1998 was still new to some people. If my memory serves me right, and 9 out of 10 times it still does, the story develops in such a way that you keep hoping they will discover who the other one really is that they are communicating with, and that they would fall in love. In the end they do, and you get all teary eyed. At least my wife does. (And I think I have too.)

I thought it was rather odd that Holy Spirit (notice He is not “the” or “it” but a real person) would drop that movie into my mind as I finally woke up, after being woken up at 1 am this morning by Him. He is known for that. Giving you a random thought, even in the middle of the night, but then explaining it more after you spend a little time in waiting, and seeking, the purpose He had in giving it to you.

His communication style is fun at times. It reminds me of playing hide and go seek as a child, or even now with a grandchild. He will say something, wait for you to acknowledge Him, and then give you a little bit more to keep you hearing. Hide, seek, and find.

For me, it is how He gives a prophetic word for someone – just a picture in my mind, a single word, or a short sentence, and then as I speak it forth, He gives me more to share with that one He is wanting to bless. Moving in faith brings reward, and blesses others in the process.

So what about “You’ve Got Mail”? I just believe the Lord is wanting to get someone’s attention who is reading this, and let you know that it is actually He Who has been speaking to you all the time. You thought it was just you.

He wants you to know He loves you, knows where you are at, and is already working out the situation far better than you could hope or imagine.

You are not alone. You have not been abandoned. He knows the pain, hurt and sorrow. He has been there. Done that.

He loves you so much, and is so happy that you are His child. He is not out to “get you” as some would think. He is out to get you - to share more of His love with you.

So heh! You’ve got mail!

Now treasure this.

“What then shall we say to these things? If God is for us, who can be against us? He who did not spare His own Son, but delivered Him up for us all, how shall He not with Him also freely give us all things? Who shall bring a charge against God's elect? It is God who justifies. Who is he who condemns? It is Christ who died, and furthermore is also risen, who is even at the right hand of God, who also makes intercession for us. Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? Shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword? As it is written:

"For Your sake we are killed all day long;

We are accounted as sheep for the slaughter."

Yet in all these things we are more than conquerors through Him who loved us. For I am persuaded that neither death nor life, nor angels nor principalities nor powers, nor things present nor things to come, nor height nor depth, nor any other created thing, shall be able to separate us from the love of God which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.”(Romans 8:31-39 NKJV)

Touch them even now Lord. Let them know of Your awesome love.

Love you,

Steve Martin

Tried By Fire - Coming Forth as Gold by Elaine Tavolacci

Tried By Fire - Coming Forth as Gold 

by Elaine Tavolacci

The Elijah List

 

There is a book in the Bible about a man named Job. He was a blameless and upright man who had experienced a great loss in every area of his life. He went through a horrendous trial for nine months. The end of the story tells us that Job was rewarded with double of everything that he lost. Job said at the end of this trying time that he shall come forth as gold because he knew that he didn't do anything to deserve that injustice. He also understood that God's plan for his life could not be thwarted or cancelled. When God gives you a promise, it will come to pass no matter what your circumstances look like in the natural.

 

The Lord says, I hear your cry and I hear every prayer. As you call out to Me in the fires of affliction, I will respond. Though the trials seem to multiply, I am with you through them all. Just as the refining of gold removes impurities, those things in your life that are unacceptable shall be removed. In the same way that refining gold separates the pure from the less precious metals, I am removing the dross from your life. I am releasing you into royalty, which comes forth from purity.

 

Trust Me to strengthen you as you are refined in these trying times. Disregard the opinions of those who doubt My word. The opinions of others cannot negate nor cancel out My plans. Just as Job, when you are tried you will come forth as gold. In the same way that gold is symbolic for a covenant in a wedding band, I am establishing My covenant with you. Do not focus on your past so that you will not be delayed from moving into your future. I will bring you through those difficult seasons and remove those things that are confining and restricting you from moving forward. Allow Me to free you from all doubts and fears which are imprisoning you. As you trust Me, you will be released from the restraints which are holding you in bondage.

 

Shake it Off

 

Shake off the despair and heaviness that tries to attach itself to you. Be careful not to go back to your old ways of living or allow the enemy to intimidate you by trying to steal your identity in Me. The enemy could not terminate anything that I have for you, as long as you do not yield to him. Learn how to love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you, rather than be critical of them. Bless them that curse you. Listen for My voice, so that you will no longer be misled by the voices of unbelief. I Am the God of liberation, and as you refuse to submit to anything contrary to My word, I will deliver you from all the chaos in your life. 

You will be unchained from those things that are harming you. I am the supplier of all your needs. Trust me for your healing. Trust Me for your deliverance. Trust Me for your financial needs. Trust me in your marriage. See yourself healed and made whole. See yourself prosperous. See yourself strong and able to stand against any adversity that comes your way. See yourself as more than a conqueror. See yourself as the blessing that I have created you to be. As you acknowledge the glorious future that I have for you, your life will be transformed and you will see My plans come to pass in your life and ministry says the Lord.

 

Job 23:10-12 But He knows the way that I take; When He has tested me, I shall come forth as gold. My foot has held fast to His steps; I have kept His way and not turned aside. I have not departed from the commandment of His lips; I have treasured the words of His mouth More than my necessary food.

 

Job 42:2 Job replied I know that you can do all things; no plan of Yours can be thwarted.

 

Job 42:12 -17 Now the Lord blessed the latter days of Job more than his beginning; for he had fourteen thousand sheep, six thousand camels, one thousand yoke of oxen, and one thousand female donkeys. He also had seven sons and three daughters. And he called the name of the first Jemimah, the name of the second Keziah, and the name of the third Keren-Happuch. In all the land were found no women so beautiful as the daughters of Job; and their father gave them an inheritance among their brothers. After this Job lived one hundred and forty years, and saw his children and grandchildren for four generations. So Job died, old and full of days.

Always Loved You - Now Think On This (Steve Martin)

Always Loved You

"My beloved responded and said to me, ' Arise, my darling, my beautiful one, and come along. 'For behold, the winter is past, the rain is over and gone. ‘The flowers have already appeared in the land; the time has arrived for pruning the vines,and the voice of the turtledove has been heard in our land.”
(Song of Songs 2:10-12 NASU)

As she walked down the aisle that cool October evening, my heart increased with skipped beats. The original song I had written for her, using those words from Song of Songs Chapter 2, had been prepared weeks earlier. Now as I tried to sing them, soft and gentle, while playing on the borrowed six string guitar, I got choked up on the second verse. She was so beautiful. And I had waited so long.

When she finished walking the eternal length of the aisle, I had to set my guitar down before I dropped it. This was the moment to soak it all in, as our gaze upon one another filled our souls with passion. Nights of crying out to the Lord had been fulfilled. She had come.

There was a time just two years earlier when I didn’t believe this was going to happen. I had been engaged to another, and it didn’t work out. That one was meant for another. But now this beautiful young woman, whom He knew was the right one, was coming to me. Is it any wonder why I love the Lord so much? Just one look at her, my sweet Laura Jean, is enough.

This really happened, when my awesome bride Laurie entered the church sanctuary and glided to the wedding altar. Her full length, laced pure white gown covered her entire body, while hazel eyes looked at me from under the sheer veil. What could I do, except try to contain my heart from leaping out with joyous ecstasy.

And now decades later, because of His everlasting mercy, grace and provision has sustained us through the thick and thin, the joys and the sorrows, while commitment to the full days of our lives continues to keep us, we both love the Lover of our souls. He has always loved us. He has always loved you.

“I am my beloved's, and His desire is for me.” (Song of Songs 7:10)

You may have come to the place where your soul needs to know His love, of His heart for yours, of His passion and desire for you, His beautiful creation and Bride. Doubts may have arisen from rejection, while forgotten and forsaken relationships have brought you to the point of giving up on your hopes and dreams. That desire for a man who really cares. The longing for that promised wife, or maybe just a little more of living the abundant life?

There is One whose desire for you is never ending. He has sought you in your sleeping hours, in your waking moments, in your hours of grief and despair. He is the One your being longs for.

The lover of your soul knows what price has been paid for you. Yeshua has come. He has suffered the ultimate. He has risen and now lives, so that you can too. For Him to be with you through thick and thin, through joys and sorrows, until the length of your days has been done, and then beyond.

“Hurry, my beloved, and be like a gazelle or a young stag on the mountains of spices." (Song of Songs 8:14)

He has come for you. He has always loved you, and He always will.

Now think on this,

Steve Martin

Garris Elkins: You are Entering a Season of Justice and Restoration - The Elijah List

Garris Elkins:

You are Entering a Season 

of Justice and Restoration
(The Elijah List)

We are entering a season where those who have experienced injustice are about to receive supernatural restoration. 

Throughout history the justice of God has brought restoration to His people who have suffered injustice at the hands of the enemy. This is not a time for despair and sorrow. This is a time to begin living in expectancy. Something wonderful is about to take place.

The Lord is speaking a word of hope in the middle of injustice:

"I am about to right this wrong. The injustice done to you cannot stand in the presence of My justice. The enemy came to steal, rob and destroy, but watch what I am about to do. My court has issued an official order against this work of injustice in your life. 

Give Me your sorrow. Give Me your despair. These are illegal orders issued from the courts of darkness. I have destined this season to be a time when My goodness and purpose will be revealed. My mercy and justice is coming. This injustice you are experiencing is about to become a place of celebration and restoration."

An Accident of Despair

In early December I slipped on some ice and ruptured a tendon in my knee. It was one of most painful things I have ever experienced. This injury was not on my radar or included in my life-plan. Within days I was in surgery to repair the torn tendon. My entire life was rearranged in one moment of time.

Immediately following the accident, I was isolated to a chair or couch with a brace on my leg to keep it uncomfortably extended during the initial healing process. 

During this time of recuperation I read, I wrote, I ate food lovingly provided by friends. I did all of these same things each day with no break in my routine. My life became a series of repeats.

One morning I was standing in our bathroom with the support of my crutches. As I was drying my hands, I felt the overwhelming presence of despair enter the room. I had never before felt the presence of despair in my life.

The best way I could describe what I was feeling was that I was being slowly pulled by the current of a powerful river towards the edge of a huge waterfall. It was a power that seemed impossible to resist. What I was going through felt similar to being in the hospital in preparation for my knee surgery and going under anesthesia. As someone goes under anesthesia reality begins to slip away and you are taken to another place.

In the moment just before despair came with its dark vision, the reality of my injury had hit me with full force. 

I had been told I would be in this brace for several months followed by a season of rehabilitation not able to do all the things I love to do.

As I stood there looking into the bathroom mirror, the sorrow of my situation was setting me up to embrace hopelessness. As I drifted towards the edge of despair, I even heard my surgeon's words, "You should be back to normal in 6-8 months." I became overwhelmed with sorrow. My sorrow began to anesthetize me to accept what appeared to be inevitable, taking me to a place I had never been before. The closer I got to the waterfall the deeper I went into the numbing effects of my sorrow.

Over the years, I have ministered to people who have drifted towards this edge of despair and sometimes gone over its falls. Some never returned. Some came back after years of counseling. I was scared.

Out loud, with the hand towel still hanging from my hands, I said, "I have no despair. I have hope in God." 

In that moment the image disappeared and the despair was gone. This was no magic, memorized formula. This was a cry from the depth of my heart in a desperate moment of great need. I left the bathroom and told my wife, Jan, what had just happened. I felt shaken and emotional.

His Goodness and Purpose

In the next few minutes we took communion and prayed. Jan walked me through some directed prayer about despair and we made sure any residue of this lying visitor was no longer present.

A week earlier, the day after my knee injury, the Lord said two words to me that would guide me during this season of recovery. He said this would be a season where I would experience His goodness and purpose. The vision of despair came to try and rob from me of the goodness and purpose God had planned.

What happened to me was an injustice. God did not cause me to slip on the ice. Hell used this situation to attempt to steal, rob and destroy through an act of injustice. God had other plans. His intent was to bless, affirm and build my life in the midst of my suffering.

Calling On the God of Justice

The despair I felt had to be challenged or the injustice I experienced would try to define my life. My future freedom depended upon me confronting despair and the hypnotic influence of ungodly sorrow. 

My only hope was found in calling on the God of justice.

Hope is a person, not a theory. He has authority over the power and imagery of despair. He has given that same authority to us. Despair cannot stand in His presence, nor can despair continue to pull us towards its place of eventual death, if we call upon God in our time of need. Lies have no power in the light of His presence.

As I began to experience a new sense of personal freedom, the Lord said this coming season would be a time of an unusual outpouring of justice for His people. 

Scriptures about His justice began to flood my mind.

"Righteousness and justice are the foundations of Your throne." Psalm 89:14

"For the Lord loves justice, and He will never abandon the godly." Psalm 37:28a

"The Lord gives righteousness and justice to all who are treated unfairly." Psalm 103:6

"For I, the Lord, love justice. I hate robbery and wrongdoing. I will faithfully reward My people for their suffering and make an everlasting covenant with them." Isaiah 61:8

"My mercy and justice are coming soon. My salvation is on the way." Isaiah 51:5

If you have experienced an injustice, God wants you to hear His heart. 

If you have suffered a financial injustice, listen. If you have suffered injustice in your marriage, listen. If you have suffered an injustice concerning the destiny of one of your children, listen. If you suffered an injustice at the hands of another Believer, listen. Listen to the heart of the God of justice.

His mercy and justice is coming. His salvation is on the way.
