PREFACE

Here I write in this book my struggles and victory as a servant called to keep the fear of the Name by watching the throne. Through the wisdom and guidance of the Holy Spirit, I considered that written form would be the best way for you to understand ‘the inevitable appointment’ that is set for every soul. See, everyone is destined to meet the Maker of all souls. God has set a date in eternity for our encounter with Him and He will not delay. Since we cannot escape death, it is certain that we will not escape God's eternal affair with our souls. Now there is one thing that stands between God and us, and that is His throne. Therefore, everyone must watch the throne, so that we might bring a crown worthy of the honor of Almighty God. My dearest hope is that through faith in the Son of God, you will become like Him in every way. And may you share in the hope of the saints who will reign with the Lord in His Father’s Kingdom.

The Kingdom Call and the Confessions

1

Now before I was called to keep the fear of the Name by watching the throne, I said to myself,

Is there truly a throne from which the Lord watches over every person on the earth?

Then moments later, surprising verses began to flow into my mind reading like this:

God looks down from heaven upon the children of men, to see if there are any who understand, who seek after God. They have all turned away, together they all have become filthy; there is none that does good, no, not one.

And this verse:

There is no fear of God before their eyes.

Then, I said, So it is as I thought! It is vain for me to pray and seek the Lord with all my heart!

Now as I turned around to go lie down, I heard a small voice calling my name, and then I said, ‘Lord, are you the One answering my thoughts? Here I am! Speak, for your servant is listening."

Then again, I heard a soft but direct voice say,

The Lord speaks His secrets only to those who fear Him, for His mercy extends to those who fear Him, from generation to generation.

Ah! Then there truly is no hope for me, because I live in the midst of a generation that has no fear of God before their eyes! I have heard them say, 'It is vain to serve God! What do we gain if we meet His standards or if we walk around fearing His Name all the time?' And even twice, I have heard them say, 'It is no use. We will continue with our own plans; each of us will follow the imagination of his evil heart.'"

Then suddenly, after I spoke those words, the atmosphere in my room filled with darkness. And in the dark, I heard the voice of the Almighty say, Who should I send? And who will go for Us?

And after I heard His words, I immediately responded and said, Lord, please do not choose me to go! I am not brave or worthy like most of Your ancient prophets who sacrificed their lives to preach Your message. Because soon after they delivered Your message, by the hands of evil men they suffered terrible fates due to their unwavering devotion to the fear of Your Name! So, Lord, I beg You, do not send me to give a report to this evil generation, because they will not believe me, nor will they listen to my voice, for they will say, 'The Lord has not appeared to you!'

Then, with a solid sound of divine determination in His voice, the Lord responded to me and said,

"I AM WHO I AM, and I AM sending you! My purpose in sending you is to preach the fear of My Name among the nations. Who would risk their life by coming before the throne of a great King and not bring gifts of honor? Will that person not feel ashamed? The oxen recognize their owners and the donkeys their master's crib, but this generation has not acknowledged Me nor has it received Me as their God. Everything I created has a name, but who was present with Me from eternity to give Me My Name? Should I not be the most feared and honored throughout the earth? Nevertheless, the people of this generation do not have a high regard for My Name. Instead, they use My Name in vain. Now, if this rebellious generation continues to disregard My laws and use My Name in vain, then I will be provoked to My jealous anger, and I will not spare them in judgment. For I, the Lord, will not tolerate the misuse of My Name nor will I hold that person guiltless in My sight! Furthermore, this is what you are to say to them, 'I AM has sent me to you, to tell you to keep the fear of His Name in your hearts by watching the throne!’ Now since they are a stubborn-hearted people, should they ask, ‘why does God want us to fear His Name?’ You will then say to them, ‘The fear of the Lord begins with His Name and it is perfected within you by watching the throne.'"

No! Lord! Please do not send me! I am not eloquent, never before in the past nor since You have spoken to me. I am not excellent with words. I speak slowly, I get tongue-tied easily and I confuse people when I talk!

Who gave man his mouth? Who makes him deaf or mute? Who gives him sight or makes him blind? Is it not I, the Lord? Now you will go! And I will help you speak and I will teach you what to say.

But Lord, have mercy on me and listen! I am too young!

Do not say, 'I am too young,' for you must go wherever I send you and say whatever I tell you to say. Now get yourself ready! Stand up and tell them everything I tell you to say. Do not be afraid of them, or I will make you look foolish in front of them. You must speak My words to them, whether they listen or fail to listen, for they are rebellious. I have made you a prince before the people of your generation; so hear the word I speak and give them this warning from the throne.

Lord God, I realize that what I am attempting to do is risky, for You are greater than me and I have taken it upon myself again to speak back to You even though I am but dust and ashes. So Lord, please do not become angry with me, and do not let the glory of Your Presence burst me in consuming flames because I am already short of days! I will speak one more time. Now, Lord, I must admit to You, that I am not sure if this is going to work! Who will believe this message? And to whom will Your arm be revealed? Because there are not many in this generation who fear Your Name or believe that You exist since no one has ever seen You! And Lord, I do not have the power to make them fear Your Name, so how will I convince them that You truly have sent me?

Brace yourself like a man, because I have some questions for you, and you must answer them! To whom will you liken Me and make Me equal, and compare Me, that we may be alike? Lift up your eyes and look to the heavens: Who created all these stars? Who brings out the stars one by one, and calls them each by name; and because of His great power and mighty strength, not one of them is missing? I am the first, and I am the last; and besides Me, there is no God. Who then is like Me? Let that person step forward and prove to you his power. Let him do as I have done since I established My ancient people [Israel], and let him declare to you the things that are coming and the events that are going to take place in the end.

O Lord, You are my God; I will honor You, and I will praise Your Name. When I took it upon myself to dispute with You, I was not even able to answer You once out of many times. Now I hate myself for even attempting to speak of things far beyond my understanding! My hands have become feeble, my knees are as weak as water, and my face is laid flat on the ground because I have now witnessed the full extent of my foolishness before Your awesome holiness! Lord, I was wrong to ever doubt You, for You are great and do marvelous wonders; Yes, You alone are God!

Do not be afraid! You are My witness. Is there any other God besides Me? No, there is no other Rock; there is no real God besides Me! I will strengthen you though you have not known Me. So that the whole world may know from the rising of the sun to its setting, that there is none besides Me. I am the Lord, and there is no other. I form the light and create darkness. I bring prosperity and create catastrophes. I, the Lord do all these things.

Lord God, I realize that there is no other Kingdom like Yours. And I know that there is no other throne as capable as Yours. And by Your mighty power, You have convinced me that You are the Sovereign Lord who works behind the scenes of time and eternity. Lord, you could have chosen anyone, but you chose me, and not that I am someone special, or anything beyond the ordinary but I have found favor in Your sight according to the abundant riches of Your grace. And now, Lord as You have called me into Your Kingdom and given me this task to accomplish, so I will do as You have commanded me. And I will go and preach Your message to the whole world! And with everyone that I meet, I will teach them to keep the fear of Your Name by watching the throne. Now, Lord, there is one more thing that I must ask of You!

Until now you have not asked for anything in My Name. Ask, and you will receive, and your joy will be complete. I know you by name, and I am pleased with you in My sight. Yes, you may ask Me for anything in My Name, and I will do it, for I will not give My glory to another.

Lord, You have been telling me, 'Warn these people,' But You have not told me who You will send with me. You have said, 'I know you by name, and I am pleased with you in My sight.' Now, since I have found favor in Your sight, please show me Your ways, that I may know what pleases You, and so that I may continually find favor in Your sight. I simply request of You these things, so that the world might know that this is a generation You want to save.

My Presence will go with you, and I will give you rest.

Lord God, if Your Presence does not go with me, do not make me leave this place. How will anyone know that You are pleased with me if You do not go with me? Is it not Your Presence in the midst of Your people that makes them look distinguished from all the other people on the face of the earth?

"For My Name’s sake, I will do this very thing that you have asked, because I am pleased with you, and I know you by name."

Please, I pray You, show me Your glory. And unite my heart to fear Your Name, so that I may honor You wherever I go.

My Spirit will lead you to where you should go and He will teach you what to say as long as you endure with the fear of My Name in your heart. Now keep the fear of My Name by watching the throne!

O great and Sovereign Spirit of God! Like the clouds that cannot contain the rain, You shower the throne of my heart with Your Presence, and I know that You search all things, even the deep secrets of God! Therefore, Wonderful Counselor, teach my heart to know the Godhead.

It is written: 'THE LORD OUR GOD IS ONE LORD.'

But I have read of Three distinct Persons: The Father, The Son, and the Holy Spirit. So how can all Three be One?

What could be known about the Father unless He has a Son who reveals His will from eternity to eternity? 'No one has seen God at any time, the only begotten Son, who is closest to the Father's side, has made Him known.' And what could be known about the Son unless His desire is to accomplish the will of the Father who sits on the Throne of His heart? ‘For I have come down from heaven, not to do My own will, but the will of Him who sent Me.' And what could be known about the Spirit unless the Father gives those who obey Him the same Spirit He shares with the Son? 'And because you are sons, God sent out the Spirit of His Son into your hearts, crying, Abba, Father.'"

My Father in heaven, may Your Name be kept holy. May Your Kingdom come. May Your will be done on earth, as it is in heaven. Father God, I pray that You might make me one with You as You are with Your Son through the Spirit You share with Him. Amen!

Fear the Name! Watch the throne!

Lord God, help me, because, in this presently dark world, I hear demonic whispers advertising me a dream, a dream that promises worldly success and happiness. But I know that it is better to be throne ready than to be a seeker of worldly treasures. Lord, I know that Your throne will be the nightmare of those who have allowed the lie in their heart to convince them that they can satisfy all their needs in this life. The Pride of the lie tells them that they can have the money, the power, the fame, and the security to protect those interests. However, on that Day before the throne, they will wake up and see that they had foolishly exchanged their souls to gain the whole world. Lord, please do not let me encounter the same fate as those who reject You!

Those who use the things of this world should be careful to not become attached to them. For the world, as it now exists is passing away. Therefore, lay up for yourself treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust consumes, and where thieves do not break in and steal; for where your treasure is, there your heart will also be.

"Lord, I pray that You protect my heart from seeking to cherish the treasures of this world! Help me to be steadfast in the truth, so that I may not fall into the deception of the lie that promises happiness. Father, on that Day, may the face of Your Son who sits on the throne be revealed as my permanent crown and treasure!

Keep the fear of the Name by watching the throne!

I read this verse in Scripture, which says, 'If you believe, you will receive whatever you ask for in prayer.' But why has my prayer not been answered? Why have I not received what I asked for?

Do you think that the Lord cannot hear you? Or that His hand is too short to accomplish what He said He would do for those who call upon His Name? No! Now if God had given you exactly what you wanted the moment you had asked for it, then the Evil One, who is against you, would have had his way in you. But you have not received what you have asked for because your desires are far off from Lord’s will! When you ask, you do not receive, because you ask with the wrong motives, that you may spend what you get on your pleasures. The Lord wants you to know Him for who He is and not for what you want Him to be! Ask yourself this: Are your intentions truly about drawing closer to God or are you just concerned about what you can get from God? Who would dare risk his life to approach the Almighty without invitation? Do you remember at what cost the Lord gave you the privilege to call upon His Name? What if calling upon God’s Name will cost you everything you have? Are you willing to abandon your reputation before the world to gain His approval? Are you willing to accept the cost to walk with God?

Then it is true! Everything does come at a price, even serving God!

If anyone refuses to surrender their heart to God after they receive the knowledge of the Son of God, then it shows that His sacrifice on the cross means nothing to them! So then, when a person asks God for the things of the world it is evident that seeking the will of God is not a priority to them. And what will it profit a man if he gains the whole world and loses his soul?

Father, I beg You to cure my heart of worldliness, so that I may only seek Your Kingdom!

Remember; do not worry about anything, saying, ‘What will I eat? What will I drink? Or, what will I wear for clothing?’ for worldly things possess the thoughts of unbelievers, but your heavenly Father already knows that you need these things. But seek first the Kingdom of God, and His righteousness and all these things will be given to you as well. Finally, keep in mind the Lord said, ‘he who loves his life in this world will destroy it. And he who hates his life in this world will keep it for eternity. Anyone who loves father or mother more than Me is not worthy of Me. And anyone who loves son or daughter more than Me is not worthy of Me. And if you do not carry your own cross and follow Me, you cannot be My disciple until you give up everything you have, so do not begin until you count the cost.’

Lord God, I have counted the cost, and there is too much for me to give up here!

"What you consider too much of a cost
