Do Not Lose Hope!
“Beloved. Do you know there is a Lion who sings over you? Do not lose hope. What I have done in the past, I will do again.
Am I not the Way Maker? Oh yes, My Child. I have never failed you before and I will not fail you now.
I have moved mountains for you and I will do it again. I AM He who is faithful and true.
Even now, My Spirit is confirming that you are a Child of the Most High God. You have the heart of a Lion, My Warrior Bride.
No ordinary or tame Lion, oh no, My Love. I AM the Lion of Judah, your Fierce Protector.
I AM your Dread Champion. The devil is no match for Me and he is no match for you. My Spirit dwells, abides, inhabits every cell of your being. In Me, you live and move and have your being.
You have the heart of a Warrior. If your God be for you, who shall stand against you, Dear One? I AM He who sticks closer than a brother.
I AM your body Guard, your Shield, your Defender, your Savior. I will not be restrained by anyone or anything when it comes to My Beloved.
I AM fighting your battles. I AM your Strong Champion. Even now My Mighty Roar is filling the atmosphere around you.
A thousand may fall at your side, and ten thousand at your right hand; but it shall not come near you.
At the Sound of My Voice every mountain trembles and becomes a plain before you. This is the Mighty Battle Cry of Grace.
Every chain is broken, every high thing that exalts itself against you shall be brought down.
Fear not, Beloved, at the Sound of My Voice, every knee shall bow. Nothing can separate you from My Love.
My Love is the POWER you wield! The LORD your God is in your midst, a Mighty One who will save; I AM the LION OF JUDAH singing VICTORY over you!

The word ADVOCATE stands out to me so strong ! I feel I must share what happened more than 40 years ago: When I was a girl, maybe age 10, my Catholic grandmother Anna Maria said – and she usually did not say much – “our Marion writes and speaks like an advocate”.
You, Deborah, surely know: In the Holy Bible is written about a female advocate = judge: Deborah…
And she loved music….
Back then we all did not know or read the Bible as we should have. We went to church, yes, but only a few knew the Bible. My Lutheran grandma Anna Erna always took her Bible with her to church. I am glad and thankful, I have her Bible here with me. She made a mark, a note of my name with a pencil inside. I hope to meet both Annas soon. And all Deborahs and Esthers and Sarahs and you know… the list is much longer than only these few names. Our great heavenly Advocat then hopefully rejoices over us.
THANK YOU AWESOME DADDY. I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE YOU. AM BLESSED BY YOU.
AMEN…ME TOO, HIT HOME LIKE A HUNDERD FREIGHT TRAINS, PRAISE THE LORD JESUS CHRIST.
Thank you so very much, dear Sister. I cannot tell you how much this word is EXACTLY the encouragement I needed at this very moment. May our Father’s great love and favor surround you like a shield.
