He came to bring the Mourners Joy

For I will pour Water upon him that is thirsty and Floods upon dry Ground: I will pour My Spirit upon thy Seed, and My Blessing upon thine Offspring.

God, send a gentle Rain, for my Heart is as dry as Sand. Soak up this thirsty Land with Your blessings from Heaven. Let the Holy Spirit send strong Streams to flow into my Heart.

If an earthly Father who is evil by Nature, gives his dear Children nothing but good Gifts, how much more does our Father in Heaven, Who is nothing but good, give us His good Spirit and all the good gifts of Heaven.

Jesus, Who is gone up to the Father, send me Your Spirit. I long for You Lord, let Your Comfort be with me for ever. Teach me to stand firm in the Truth, and be true to You in the Faith.

O, Holy Spirit, the strength of the Meek, come to me and be a thousand times Welcome, let me be Your Temple. Only You can clean my House, my Heart. Throw away every thing that separates me from the sweet Joys of Heaven.

Adorn me with Your Gifts, make me new and pure. Let me have Your Love and stand in Your Light. Give me Courage and sanctify me. Teach me how to pray in the Spirit and Truth before God.

I will surrender to You and honour You. I will ever strive upwards toward Heaven until I come to the Father and the Son. You, Who sit on the highest Throne of Heaven, will I praise as the wise Men and the Angels do. Amen.

But He was wounded for our transgressions, He was bruised for our iniquities: the chastisement of our Peace was upon Him; and with His Stripes we are healed.

My Jesus has fulfilled the Law, the Lamb has stilled God’s wrath. Abraham and the Prophets saw the Day approaching when the groaning of God’s People would be answered. The dark Night and Fear were driven away and Eternal Sunshine shone on the World.

When the bright Light appears in our Soul, the Prince of darkness has to flee. Day and Night do not appear at the same time. God Himself decreed with His Holy Spirit that Christ would come and bring us to the Kingdom, where we will shine among the Angels before the Throne of God.

My Jesus left the Kingdom of Heaven and came to this Vale of Tears to suffer Pain and Death for us, and carried our Sins away with His Pain. His Innocence brought us joy, He who had never sinned was condemned to death as a Sinner.

He died for our Sins, nailed to the Cross between two Murderers, suffering terrible Pain and bitter Distress. His Soul was troubled down with sorrowful Death before God’s wrath was quenched. When all was fulfilled He commended His Spirit into God’s Hand.

Through His struggle and suffering He brings us through the Gate that leads us to eternal Blessing. Yes, He has given us the Strength to reject the Darkness where even Angels fear to go. He takes us to His Palace in Heaven to stand before the Throne of Glory.

Would that this true Light should remain in every one’s Heart, and that we do not follow the Way of the World. If we turn away from the Light and Salvation we will fall into Torment and Distress. Let us follow the teachings of Jesus, and trust Him with our Faith. Then we will see God with Joy.

Allow me, Jesus, to be Your Servant in Joy and Hope. do not let the World or Satan separate us. Let the mourning for Your bitter Pain and suffering for me never leave my Heart. I want to eat the eternal Feast of Life in Heaven with You, my Salvation, in Paradise. Amen.

I am the good Shepherd, and know my Sheep and am known of mine.

Good Shepherd of all Souls, my Soul is ever refreshed anew by Your Shepherd’s faithfulness which is glorious and Eternal.

The Flock is Yours alone. You know them and can name them all. They are in Your Hand for safekeeping.

As they are known to You, so are your Hand, Heart and Name known to them. They understand Your Voice and willingly follow You with eager desire. Amen!

Whither shall I go from Thy Spirit? or whither shall I flee from Thy Presence?

Lord, I have sinned; I am burdened by the weight of my Sin. I have not walked in the Way You showed me. In my fear I want to hide myself from Your Wrath.

But how can I escape You? You are everywhere. If I sail over the Sea You will find me. If I had Wings to fly like the Wind, yet would You follow me.

Lord, I must confess, I have acted wrongly and can no longer call myself Your Child. Please have Mercy on me! Do not let my many Sins arouse Your Wrath.

If a Man could count the Sand in the vast Sea, it still would not equal all my Sins, all of my many Wrongs.

Weep, O weep, the Tears flow from my Eyes. O, if only I had enough Tears to wash away my Misery. O, that my Tears were a Fountain unending.

O that the Tears would flood my Eyes and flow like Blood. O that my Tears would well up like the Waves of the Sea. Alas, my Body lacks the Water.

Jesus, from Your Wounds a single drop of Blood can put out the Fire of my Sins. Your Wounds wrap around me and warm me and still all my Fears.

Lord, You will take my heavy Burden, and throw it into the deepest Sea. Make me as white as Snow and wake me up to sin no more. Your Spirit will guide me and I will always stay with You. Amen.

For he that is entered into his Rest, he also hath ceased from his own Works, as God did from His.

How peacefully do they rest, all who bravely fought the Battles of Life. How peacefully they rest in the Grave until the Day they will be raised up in Victory.

You, the Son of God, the Saviour were also covered up in the Grave after Your work on the Cross was finished. You did not stay there and turn to Dust. As the Victor You arose again.

O, when we too rest in our Grave, like all the Blessed who endured and prevailed in the difficult Battles of Life, the precious Saviour will call us from our Graves for the victory Ceremony. Amen.
