Being prepared as a bride
concerns those who are already born again
and in this also there is promise
even before the bride has made herself ready
and is prepared
and fully
for even until then
as He swore concerning the waters of Noah
so is this with Him:
that He will no longer be angry with her
nor rebuke her
and though he dried up all of the vegetation (Isaiah 42)
so shall there also now come
righteousness and salvation
and prosperity in the earth and heaven (Isaiah 41:18, 43:19)

And do any need to hear from Him?
"Thus the LORD has spoken?"

As He has given and taken away
so has the earth and heavens been witness
having cursing and blessing
but as He is our light
and our temple and Promise within
so does the prudent conceal knowledge
only regarding considering his steps before him

Darkness was made light
unto those who wholly sought Him

light coming forth from darkness
weighed the hills and mountains
the valleys and the rivers even were struck as they were balanced

The Redeemer came
and even saved
though we were all found blasphemous

The mountains smoked and melted like waxed
as He revealed knowledge

no longer coming out of darkness
now are man's steps to be put in place by the LORD
knowing both that before we call He will answer
and while we are still speaking He will hear
even knowing that as we are in Him
so shall His still small voice tell us
us hearing from behind
"This is the way, walk in it"
that when we turn to the right and to the left
that we may profit
so has light been given
eternity and time encompassed

He has given the treasures of darkness
and hidden riches of secret places
He has not spoken in secret
nor in darkness
nor said unto to Jacob
to seek Him in vain

In His beloved
there is no lack of knowledge
for all that is old has passed away
and every idol and false god
is unable to declare former things

No longer shall one sow
and another reap
For in God's equity
He has been sought
by those who did not ask for Him
and He has been found
by those who did not seek Him

And as Him
are there any who can proclaim?
Where is the voice of the scoffer?
and the one who wishes the tongue to be tame?
His righteousness and heritage was given
and with His own hands
He spread the earth
and stretches out the heavens
and the foundation of His Promise is eternally lain

He has gone before me
and I flourish in the courts of my God (Psalm 92)
even exalting His word above all His name

He shall open up the double doors
breaking in pieces the gates of bronze
and the bars of iron
giving gold and silver
and a wedding and a vine
