"Transfiguration through Scriptural Recitation, (His Spirit Quickens our Mortal Bodies into His Image)."

I see all the people, walk
with no peace and no hope and
no light any longer in their eyes

This world and time, has bled
them dry

It feels me with a sadness but
not that consumes me and
destroys but feels me with
Compassion that drives me to
reach-out into their inner-beings
to rub in a balm from the Spirit

For He has Anointed us with the,
"Holy Spirit and with Power," to
go about and to do good and to
Heal all that are infirmed and
under subjection to harmful, evil
spiritual powers

The Prophet Isaiah Testified of
His Passion in this way, when he
through the Spirit, did say,

(Isaiah 53:4,5)

4 Surely he hath borne our griefs,
and carried our sorrows: yet we
did esteem him stricken, smitten
of God, and afflicted.

5 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.

All of these sorrows, truly He endured
and the closer we get to God, the more
we feel these too

Without a doubt He received the stripes
for the punishment of sins He never did
commit but the stripes we receive from
Him, is to chastise us, so as to drive out
of us, all things that offend

His stripes; our chastisement, heals us
within and gives us enlightenment

And, as we are purged from all the
foolishness of the fleshly, evil nature,
the more we are filled with His, Divine,
Virtuous Nature/Identity

This Virtue that Shines out of us can
Shine into the heart's of the wounded;
Restoring all that's died in them and
Renew them into a new creature

"The Closer a Man gets to God, the more
his self-willed, selfish, self-aspiring ego
dies-out and he realizes a Ministering
Essence forming in himself that cries-out
to help others,"

In Hebrew, "Shema," means "witness". The
idea thus conveyed is that through the
recitation or proclamation of the Shema
one is a living witness testifying to the truth
of its message. Modern Kabbalistic schools,
namely that of the Ari, teach that when one
recites the last letter of the word "'ecḥad'" (אחד),
meaning "one", he is to intend that he is ready
to "die into God".

What we must understand is that the, "Word of
God, is Quick, (actually alive; living), and Powerful,
(full of the Strength necessary to accomplish what
it is meant to do), and Sharper than any two-edged
Sword; dividing asunder the soul and spirit and is
a Discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart

So, when we recite its Blessed passages that were
delivered into the spirits of Holy men, who became,
Living Scriptures, they go into our spirits and begin
to Quicken within us and Conform us to their very
Image...

We are being made into the Express Image and Likeness
of our Heavenly Father through the Word/Will of His
Power

And, as we are changed into His Likeness, the old man/nature
dies and we are recreated in Righteousness and True Holiness;
which is the man that He has Purposed for us to Grow Up into,
even before the world began
