A message of praise from Natalia for Feast 2000

By MariaMaria #510 CM/FM 3265 9/99

1. (Mama:) This is a very special message—one of praise to the Lord, a prayer of praise from a Heavenly spirit helper! She gave it in a way that we could all participate and pray along with her, giving praise to our wonderful Husband, Creator‚ Protector, and God of the universe! Isn't He beautiful? When we were praying about publishing this for you, the Lord said, "Praise is one of the greatest powers in Heaven, and when you praise Me‚ you lift your eyes up‚ you refresh your spirit, you open yourself up to the healing balm of Heaven, and you are washed with My love and thankfulness for your praises. It's healthy, and is the best way to start this Feast!"

2. As you'll see, there are parts for the main reader to read, and then there are parts for everyone to repeat together. We printed ­extra copies of this GN so that you would all be able to follow along and get the most out of this beauti­ful prayer of praise to Jesus!

3. (Spirit helper Natalia speaking:) ­Hearken unto the Heavens, dear children of David, for a new day dawns!

114. (Mama:) Thank You Jesus! Thank you, Natalia, for leading us in this marvelous praise session! Thank you for this wonderful message about the importance of praise!

115. Thank You, wonderful Jesus‚ for this opportunity to stop and have a praise morning! Thank You Jesus! Thank You, dearest Love! We love You, Jesus! We love to praise You! We love to pray and receive Your seeds!

116. We love to give You the glory for all the things You've done for us, Your children! It's so beautiful‚ Jesus! We live in such a wonderful, wonderful world, protected by You in a bubble of Your love and care, and Your tender, sweet kisses and embraces! You're so good to us, Jesus! We can't thank You enough!

117. We thank You for Your amazing world of the Spirit‚ and the priceless privilege You give us to partake of its pleasures and joy. Thank You for Your spirit helpers‚ who so willingly help to instruct and guide us.

118. And now, dear Family, I'd like to share with you something that will inspire and encourage your hearts. While we were preparing this GN, I received a note from one of my faithful helpers, the dear channel who had received the preceding message from Natalia. As you'll see while reading the following account, Natalia had more to tell us.

119. (Excerpts from note to Mama:) When Natalia spoke to me with the message on praise, I didn't see her at the time. I knew someone wanted to speak, and it wasn't Jesus, so I asked the name and she told me—but I didn't get a picture right then.

120. Amazingly enough, though, for this past week I've been seeing a picture periodically of a beautiful girl who's always praising the Lord; and what's coming to me now is that maybe I'm seeing Natalia!

121. Our dear Husband has really been speaking to me about the need to praise more in my personal life. I've been having to fight different things day to day, like we all do, and the Lord has been reminding me of the importance of praise and that this is the way to keep the victory. Just this morning, while having my personal prayer and prophecy time‚ Jesus spoke so clearly to me about the power of positive praise, and then I saw her again. She not only raises her arms in praise to the Lord‚ but she dances around beautifully and gracefully, so free and full of the Spirit.

122. She's beautiful and moves so pretty, like a dancer. I keep seeing her with her arms up in the air in praise to the Lord. Then she gracefully twirls around, very free, like she's praising the Lord both with a song on her lips and in the dance. She's almost always with her arms raised‚ then she'll gracefully twirl round and sway her outstretched arms in the air as she continues praising the Lord, her long hair flowing in the wind as she praises. Her light, filmy dress is ­gently blowing in the breeze as she raises her arms in praise and dances and gracefully spins round‚ always looking upward, always praising. She reminds me of the spirit of love, but maybe she's the spirit of praise!

123. She's always smiling, always looking up to the Lord in praise and thanksgiving, her arms raised towards Heaven. She's very wholehearted. I can tell she's putting her all into it, and she's so perfectly free.

124. She's very uninhibited, very natural, and beautifully graceful. She moves with effortless ease, so smooth, so lovely as she praises the Lord. I get the impression she does this all day long.

125. Praising the Lord is like breathing to her. I don't recall hearing her tell me that‚ but when I see her, I know it. It's as if she's letting me know through telepathy‚ "Praising the Lord should be as natural and normal as breathing. And it's vital for your survival too!

126. "If you want to stay alive in the spirit, if you want to ward off the onslaughts of the Devil, if you want the essence of life, you need to praise the Lord at all times!" Thank You Jesus!

127. Lord, forgive me for not asking You about her sooner, or asking her who she is and what message I should be getting through all this. Please speak to me. Is this Natalia I'm seeing? Please help me to understand what You're trying to show me through all this.

128. (Natalia speaking:) Yes, yes, yes—It is I! I've come that you might see me praise. I have come to reveal to the children of David this picture of praise! It is I, Natalia. And I come that I might instruct you in the sweet song and dance of praise to our Lover and King! I visit you from the Heavenlies, that I might direct you, dear Family, in daily praise to our dear Jesus!

129. I come that I might show you this picture of victory, for this is the victory that overcomes all obstacles. This is the victory that will sustain you and keep you through these days of tests and preparation. For your Lover and Lord dwells in your praises! This is why you must praise Him continually, for your praises have drawing power. Your adoring Husband thrives on your praises! He longs for the continual praise of your lips! Your praises call Him; they entice Him. They draw His Spirit, like a magnet, He clings to you when you praise.

130. As I've told you, all the Heavens sing and dance and shout for joy as we sing and praise our loving Husband for the great works He does on behalf of His Endtime brides. And so you see me sing and dance and give praise to our Lover.

131. You see me with outstretched arms, praising in song and dance, moving so gracefully, flowing so freely in the gentle breeze; for you see the freedom of spirit I possess—that which only comes through the power of positive praise! You see me in the continual song and dance of praise‚ for this is the purpose for which I was created.

132. I live to continually praise our adoring Husband! I live to glorify our loving Lord and Master and King! He is my life, my breath‚ my song! This is why I possess such great freedom of movement, for it is through continual praise that I have truly been set free!

133. I come to you, dear Family, to mentor, to guide, to lead you in the praise. As you praise our Husband continually, you will possess ­energy, power, vigor and strength that you have never known before. As you use this tool of praise, you will win victory in every battle.

134. Your Lover and Lord dwells in your praises! He comes when you praise. As you praise Him continually, you will find true freedom and strength of days, and you too will flow gracefully with the greatest of ease on the wings of praise, over and around and straight through any obstacle that Satan would try to put in your way.

135. I show you this picture of praise to encourage your hearts‚ and to help lead you in the song and dance of praise. For through continual praise, your life is born anew every morning. I help you by showing you this sample of praise. I demonstrate the freedom of spirit that is brought on through the power of praise! Praise, praise‚ praise is the victory! Praise is freedom! Praise is power! Let us praise our sweet Lover all the days of our lives, forever and ever and ever! (End of message from Natalia)

136. (Mama:) Praise the Lord! Thank You, wonderful Jesus‚ for sending Natalia with this beautiful picture of praise! Thank You for reminding us to praise You daily, and that the road to victory begins with praise. Help us to praise You every day, in every way, in all we do!
