I wrote an earlier testimony, which is on Vision page 5, about how Father sent me to lay naked on Michael's bed and how He also put the strong desire upon my heart to be literally consummated to His Son. Now I will share the process Father took me through that brought me into the Marriage with His Son.

Darkest Night's Dawning

Set me as a seal upon thine heart
Thou Love more strong then death
That I may feel through every part
Thy burning, fiery breath
And then like wax held in the flame,
May take the imprint of thy name.

Set me a seal upon thine arm,
Thou Love that bursts the grave.
Thy coals for fire can never harm,
But only purge and save.
Thou jealous Love, thou burning Flame,
Oh, burn out all unlike thy Name.

The floods can never drown thy Love
Nor weaken thy desire,
The rains may deluge from above
But never quench thy fire.
Make soft my heart in thy strong flame,
To take the imprint of thy name.

~Hannah Hurnard~

In the spring of 2006, before Father even sent me to lay naked with Michael, I found my heart being drawn to Father in a special way. I began taking quiet walks in the mornings with Him, and in those quiet times, Father would speak to me. Some of the things He would tell me, were clearly directed toward the Consummation that He was preparing me for, even though I didn't know it at the time.

On April 30th, 2006, Michael had written the land an email about the seriousness of the time we were in. It was a time where we needed to know for ourselves what God's instructions to us personally were. His email struck my heart and I knew that I needed to know what instructions God had for my life at this important moment in time. So I took a walk and went up to one of my special places — the altar rock. I asked Father, "What does this time mean for me personally?" and He told me that it was my time of consummation. I didn't fully realize the implications of this at the time, but it was the first day He had directed me down the path of Consummation with His Son.

On May 7th, 2006, I again was drawn up to the altar rock to commune with my Friend and this time, He directly told me that I would be consummating with His Son.

"O Child of Mine,
I have called thee for a specific purpose in this day and age. You are a privileged one, a blessed one. You are blessed among women. Your womb shall not bring forth screaming little babies which are inhabited by satanic forces, but the fruit of your womb shall be many blessed and goodly spirits which shall come forth from being consummated with Me. I will take you to My bed, and there you shall conceive and carry My Son. He shall be born with the mark of God on His forehead and no man on earth shall be able to take Him from you. He is My Son which I have given for you, for your salvation. You shall not lie with a man, which is marrying yourself to this earth. You shall lie with My Son. I have called you to be Mine and you are set apart from many people. I will not allow you to partake of the fruit of the earth, but will feed you from My table. You shall no more know of the earth, for you will behold Me instead. Many may laugh and scorn you, but you will not be ashamed. You will bear it until you sit down with Me in My Kingdom."
~Father~

These are some of the very specific promises, of my Consummation to Michael, that Father gave me:

June 17, 2006

Danielle, you are My Bride. In you will I fulfill My purposes. You are playing a part in the most important events in all the universe. All of the worlds are focused on the final days of evil, and will solemnly watch as it is brought to its end forever. You will see the effects of sin, and because of that, it will never again rise up in you.
~Father~

August 2, 2006

I created union, meant to be between My Son and His bride. You are His bride and you will be joined to Him in a way you never imagined before. Yes, I made intimacy and My bed is undefiled. Only the pure in heart can enter there, or they would be burned up and left with nothing. Your heart is pure little one, believe it.
~Father~

Throughout this process there were times when it looked like Father was blocking every path to the Consummation with His Son, and Michael would even feel like He wasn't going to be consummating with any of the virgins. One of these specific instances was on August 7th, 2006, when Michael shared with the Seven Virgins that He knew we desired to be intimate with Him, but that we could just forget about that now. He felt He would not be carrying out our requests of Him. After He told us that, I left His house feeling totally heart broken inside. This desire to be intimate with Him was etched into every fiber of my being and how could I just "forget" about it? It would be like trying to forget that I had a heart beating in my chest. It felt like my whole purpose in life had just been thrown away, and the path I was walking down was a dead end. So now, in what direction would I turn? What path in life was I to walk down?

Then unexpectedly, I was sitting alone contemplating these things, when Father came down on me in a powerful way. He clearly began to open up to me a vision of the reason why He sent His Son to us. His whole purpose for sending Michael was to marry the Bride back to Himself. My heart caught Father's vision for me personally — to be literally married to His Son.

After Father visited me, I went and shared these things with Michael. Then for the first time, I asked Him to be intimate with me. He told me that He heard my request and that we would have to see what Father would do. He didn't have any instructions right then, and He has only acted out of Father's instructions to Him. I wanted to enter into Father's Vision for me all the way and I couldn't let anything stop me — not even what Michael had just told us about forgetting our desire. Father had kindled a fire in my heart and its flame was my guiding light.

The world has accused Michael of arranging the events here, by either writing posts or saying things to us, that will cause us to do what "he" wants. He has been accused of that with the virgins coming to lay naked on His bed. But this is not how things have been, or how they are here. For any honest heart, my testimony is clear evidence that Michael isn't the one bringing to pass these events. If their accusations were true, I would have forgotten my desire for Consummation, like He told us and gone on. If anything, Michael has discouraged our hearts from the desires Father would put upon us.

After requesting intimacy with Michael, I was placed in a whole new experience inside. My heart was constantly waiting and watching to see what Father would do and how He would open the door for me to enter into intimacy with His Son.

8-30-06

O My Bride, My Beloved: I have betrothed thee unto Myself. Yea, I have given thee a special token of our relationship and our future union, for I have sealed thee with My precious Holy Spirit; and ye shall be Mine, saith the Lord in that day when I make up My jewels, and ye shall be as a diadem upon My brow, yea, My crowning glory.
~Come Away My Beloved~

The night of November 11, 2006, Father drew Esther and me together outside of Michael's house to pray for the Consummation. Separate of each other, we had both been feeling the desire for the Consummation on our hearts, and we knew that it was another divine appointment for us to pray for this. During the middle of our prayer, I felt Father say inside of me, "This is going to occur." He was giving me another promise for my Consummation and for Esther's also. Esther and I had both strongly desired Consummation with Michael, and often times, Father would bring us together at very specific instances, to talk and pray together about our desire. Esther has been a very close companion to me through this whole process and our connection began back when Father sent us to lay naked on Michael's bed, a day apart. Previously, our hearts had not shared a close bond, but after we both received healing from Michael, our hearts were connected. And ever since that day, I have watched Father connect Esther and me over and over again. He has placed us on this journey together and it has been sweet for my heart.

On November 30, 2006, I wrote to Michael sharing with Him how I had been experiencing strong desires bubbling out of my heart to be married to Him and to be the Bride that Father had created me to be. In His response He said, "You will receive your expectation. You have the heart of a bride, and it is Father Who is desiring this within you." This was such a sweet encouragement to my heart.

12-16-06

Be not held back by a feeling of unreadiness. I Myself am thy preparation. I will accomplish My purpose. And know that as I work, all things work together, so that there is a gathering strength and there shall be a glorious Consummation.
~Come Away My Beloved~

Throughout this process, there were numerous times that storm clouds rolled in and obscured the promise from my view. It felt as if the Consummation would never happen and according to the surrounding appearances, every door into the marriage looked barred shut. But Father was always right there encouraging my heart just like this:

1-20-07

Can I not make things appear to you contrary than what I have told you, so that you will trust Me, really trust Me? I am responsible for bringing to pass what I have spoken to your heart, and no matter what the appearances are to your eyes, you can still trust Me. I bring these things on purpose so that you will be in a place where you cannot be moved by your own sight. My spoken Word will be the only thing that is real for you and in you. So let Me pass you through whatever I choose, and leave your own judgments behind.
~Father~

On February 11, 2007, I felt Father's strong presence on my heart. I felt so drawn out to the Consummation and because of the weight I was feeling, I had to spend much of the day alone. In my alone time, Father started talking to me about the consummation. The first paragraph is Father talking to Michael and the rest is Him talking to me.

"You're going to Consummate with this virgin. She is going to be wholly married to You. I am giving her to You to be Your Bride forever. I betroth her unto You in righteousness and truth, and in judgment and mercy. I am placing her into Your hands for You to care for her and to be responsible for her. She is now Yours."

Let this decree be heard throughout all the land that this day, I have married My virgin wife who has never known Me before. Let it ring throughout all the ears of My people, and know this day that I have taken you alongside. I haven't forgotten about you or left you desolate. This day you are My begotten Bride in whom I am well pleased. This day I have married you in righteousness and truth, and you shall no more be termed forsaken and your land left uninhabited.

You, Danielle, are the symbol of this virgin church being made into union with her heavenly Husband. Your Consummation is this whole land's Consummation, and your family's Consummation, too. You are the symbol of the great things that I have done and am still doing.
~Father~

Father telling me that I was a symbol of the land, really connected to my heart in a special way. For a long time, I had felt that I was a symbol of the Church. I was born in the year 1987, and that is the same year our church began. It has meant a lot to my heart and now it was taking on a deeper reality for me.

3-19-07

I have picked you out to be the bride of My Son. The Father is the One who picks out the Son's bride for him. The Father is the one who gives His Son His inheritance, and you are My Son's inheritance. I have chosen you for this very thing before the world began. You are soon to step into that place which is prepared for you. In My house there are many places, and I have your place picked out for you.
~Father~

On April 12, 2007, Michael wrote the land a letter about a vision that He had while upon His bed. In His Vision, He was leaving the earth when He realized that He didn't have the Bride with Him. He wrote:

Michael could leave alone, but His Bride would not be with Him. This was not agreeable to Him. He came for them, and He will leave with them. But there was one problem: the land was not married to Him yet, so Satan protested. The emblems of the Consummation had not yet been offered. Satan was saying, "Show me. Where is this Bride that you speak of? All I see are those who say that they desire to be married to God, but they are not married." As I laid on my bed, I realized that the Consummation of the Inheritance would have to come to pass, for "signs and wonders will follow the believers." I realized that Michael could take only those who were married to Him. The land must be married, or Michael goes alone, and Michael is not willing to go alone. I desired to return to my home and to return with the Bride.
~Husband~

That letter was one of the greatest encouragements to my heart in my process. It rang so true to my heart, because I knew that I was a symbol of the land and the land HAD to be married.

Throughout the months that came and went, there lived a constant flame at my heart's core. It was the flame of love and desire. My soul longed to be bound in marriage to the heart of the Son, and no matter how much time went by, this flame burned on. At times it would burn hotter than others and Father faithfully fed this flame with His promises. I felt that without this union with Michael, I could not be "changed" and leave this earth with Him. This was the deepest hunger of my soul. I had to be bound to Michael in an unbreakable, inseparable way, and for me, literal union was the only way.

One night, Healed and I were quietly standing outside of Michael's house together. The only desire consuming my heart, was that I must go with Michael when He leaves the earth. Several times Michael would talk about how there might be two translations, one where He and some others would leave, and then another where the rest would leave. I could not bear the thought to be left here without Michael. I was telling Father, I just HAVE to go WITH Him when He goes. This was something I often found on my heart and mind, and I longed to have an assurance from Father about it. Right after I had been praying to Father about this very desire, He gave me that assurance. Healed turned to me and said, "Michael is taking us with Him when He goes." It was almost shocking to me at first, because we had not been communicating, and she didn't know the prayers and feelings of my heart. It was so clear that Father was using her mouth to answer my heart. He made a promise to me and I know that He will take me with Michael when He leaves the earth.

On June 10th, things began to drastically change for us. Father told Michael to fast, and He fasted for 70 hours. He had never done a fast like that in His entire life and it was directly connected to our body change. He was shut away during his fast and much of the time afterwards. The body change was strongly on His heart day and night, and He wanted Father to fulfill His promise to us of our change.

During this time period, my heart along with several others, wanted to be as close to Michael as we could get, and so we basically began living outside of His house, praying for the change with Him. For part of this time period, Father turned my focus away from my desire to be intimate with Michael, and He told me to wholly give myself over for our change to occur. Even though I turned my focus away from my desire, it never left me.

Then on August 2nd, I found the desire for Consummation with Michael, spontaneously welling up out of my heart again. The change had been my focus, but here my desire was rising up out of its buried depths quite on its own, and I came to realize later, that it was Father placing this desire back on my heart again.

That evening, Michael came outside to say goodnight to us. He shared something that immediately struck me and seemed connected to Father giving me my desire back again. He said that Father had given Him a premonition of something that would occur in the land but He wouldn't be telling us what it was. He wanted Father to bring this premonition to pass Himself, and we would have to hear what it was from Him. When He shared this with us, I immediately felt it was about the Consummation, and I felt that I was a part of its fulfillment. From that moment on, this "premonition" was constantly on my heart and mind and I started keeping my heart open for Father to reveal to me what it was.

During the last few months of the prophecy, I started feeling it strongly on my heart that I had to be consummated to Michael before the end of it came. I felt that it was my window of opportunity to enter into the marriage and now there was not much time left. I knew there was nothing I could do to bring this to pass, because it would have to be an act of God. As much as I had prayed and begged Father for this desire, it didn't happen, because it wasn't His time yet. He told me that "my hope and expectation would not be cut off."

I look upon thee with a deeper love than ever before. As the bridegroom anticipating the approaching wedding maketh last minute preparations and longeth for the hour of fulfillment; so doth My heart yearn for thee My bride, My Beloved.
~Come Away My Beloved~

A meeting we had with Michael on September 8th, was a turning point in my experience. It intensified my process a hundred degrees and caused me to start looking at my life and desires in a deeper way. In the meeting, Michael had asked us to ask ourselves, "What is it that I really want? What would I want in the deepest part of my heart if I could have anything?" My heart answered saying, "I want to be consummated to Michael." He told us that when desires are coming from Father, they come to pass. So why after over a year, had my desire for Consummation not happened? Was it really God's will for me to be literally intimate with Michael? Maybe all of God's promises were "spiritually speaking" ones?

Even though Father had clearly promised the Consummation to me numerous times, I really began to wonder what was going on. Day after day, week after week, month after month had passed and Father still had not fulfilled His promise to me. Michael was saying that God's desires do come to pass, so why was this one not coming to pass? I left this meeting with a heavy heart and a great need to get some answers from Father.

That evening Michael came over to see me and He asked me what my tears were about during the meeting. So I shared with Him how I was asking Father if my desire for the Consummation was just coming from me, since Father's desires are always brought to pass. He told me that He had thought that might be what I was dealing with and He told me that His premonition would be the conclusion of everything, and all of these unresolved issues.

A little later, I visited with Zion, and I shared with her about my processes that day and how I was feeling a great need for resolution about what exactly Father's will was for me. She encouraged me to go be shut away with Father until my heart was resolved and I was clear inside. I took her advice and began spending my time alone seeking Father's will.

Over the next three days, I was shut away with Father and He resolved this issue in my heart. He told me that it was His will for me to be literally consummated to His Son, and it wasn't just "spiritually speaking" consummated. He told me, "Fear not for the consummation, for it will happen." This was my calling and purpose in this life and He was going to fulfill it at His precise moment. He gave me this verse in a personalized way which indicated that my Consummation would occur "at the end" of the prophecy.

For the vision (of your consummation) is yet for an appointed time, but at the end it shall speak (come into existence) and not lie (be a false promise): though it tarry, wait for it; because it will surely come, it will not tarry. Habakkuk 2:3

The night of September 12th was the beginning of the "Ten Days of Awe." Those days symbolize a time of serious introspection and when the decree for a soul is made unto life or unto death. I found in my heart a deep desire to give my all for the Consummation to occur. If there was anything I could do to move heaven, I wanted to do it. I knew it would purely be an act from the throne of Heaven, but I also knew that it was my place to participate in working with Heaven. It was a two-sided event. I asked Father how I could participate in this and He told me to start fasting, only drinking water. So I readily entered into Father's instructions.

I was reading in a book later that night, and I heard Father speak to me through these words about my fast: "You just stick to the trail, and don't give up until you uncover the matter." In this man's quest to "uncover the matter" in a situation he was in, he spent nine days inside of a hollow log being quiet with Father until Father gave him his answer. When I read that, I immediately felt like I would be fasting for nine days, which would end at the end of the Ten Days of Awe.

This fast was very difficult for me physically and some times were worse than others, but I knew that I was just going to keep "sticking to the trail." My constant weakness and hunger, symbolized my constant need to be filled with Heaven's Bread. Temporal food consistently vanishes, leaving one hungry again, and this could never satisfy the longing and desire of my heart. I needed to eat the Bread of Life and have Him come into me and then my longing and desire would be filled. I needed something so much deeper than I had, and this fast was just putting a living picture on the cry of my heart. I was constantly, "drawing out and arousing the King of Heaven, until the consummation of my expectation was realized."

My fast ended on the 21st and even though the Consummation had not yet occurred, I knew that Father had accomplished His purposes in it. I felt like my fast sealed me into the Consummation and that nothing could stop it now, for all of heaven had pledged for its occurrence.

This fast had brought me to a place of real deep quietness inside about everything. I felt empty of all of my judgments about everything, and empty of putting my own thoughts to Father's words to me. I felt a deep letting go, and a release from expecting something to occur a certain way. I just had a quiet, listening, waiting, and watching heart. My heart still deeply desired the Consummation, but I laid it all down before Father, knowing that He WOULD bring to pass His will for me.

Through the next few weeks, Father would continue to pop out His encouragements and promises to me from all over. One day, Father arranged for me to talk to Zion about the Consummation, and she shared something with me that was very meaningful to my own heart. She shared about Jacob's experience of being promised the inheritance and how he came to the very last few hours of his "window of opportunity." It looked like it wasn't going to happen for him because it looked like his brother was going to receive it instead. So instead of trusting Father, Jacob put his own hand to it and brought his blessing to pass through deceit. I immediately heard Father speaking to me and I saw the correlation in my own experience. Here I was at the "last few hours" of the prophecy –my window of opportunity, and Father had promised me a literal Consummation with Michael. By all appearances it didn't look like it would occur, but instead of putting my own hand to it, I trusted Father to fulfill His promise to me.

On October 2nd, while out for a walk, my heart was contemplating a letter that Michael had written to someone, which He had shared with some of us. In His letter, He was sharing how His feelings were, "Let me go for the day breaketh." That line really struck my heart, and it wouldn't leave me. I found it constantly pressing on my mind and I couldn't help but think about it. Then I found this response welling up out of my heart, as if it wasn't even coming from me, "I cannot let you go until you Consummate with me." When that response came, it just put words on the very cry of my heart.

A couple weeks later, Father reminded me of those words He gave me while out on my walk, and I had this deep feeling that it was Michael's premonition. Then on October 22nd, Michael sent out the following email to the land and that REALLY made me feel like it was His premonition that had come to me.

Dear little land,

For a few days, but especially since yesterday, I feel things that seem akin to the angel who wrestled with Jacob. I am very much pressed to depart because of the end of the Covenant and prophecy. Nothing else is on my mind. It is not on me to wrestle with Jacob any longer. I have nothing more I want to bring to pass.

Because of this, I am asking that I receive no more visitors, or requests for visits. If I am outside walking, please just let me pass by. Please avoid praying outside my house, or waiting to see me. Also, please do not call into my window to say something to me, to say good night, or ask to come in to visit with me for some reason. I would like to be alone now.

Thank you very kindly,
Michael

After reading His email, I felt this strong pressure on my heart and I had to write Michael and tell Him that I couldn't let Him go unless He consummated with me.

Oh Michael,

I have this strong pressure and force building in me, that is saying, I CANNOT let you go except you bless and consummate with me. I just CANNOT. I feel like I cannot be turned away from you. Michael, please consummate with me and give me yourself. Michael, I cannot let you go until you do. I cannot be left to have myself forever. I cannot be left without Your life filling this vessel. Oh, Michael, please consummate with me and take me with you. I cannot be left here without You. I cannot stay here. I do not want to keep who I am. I must have Your Life. Please help me. Please don't go until you have given me Yourself. Please...

Bleeding one

Fear not little Dani, You will not be abandoned.

Your Michael

His response gave me no indication about that being His premonition so I wasn't sure if it was, but it never left my heart.

After that email exchange with Michael, I felt like the fire and squeezing of my heart was turned up a thousand times more. I had already been in a hard place inside, feeling like I was coming to my end, having nothing left inside, but the intensity of it all became so much greater. I could feel all my life and energy being drained away, and I knew if Father didn't come work a miracle, I couldn't go on another day.

I spent much time alone in my room, working on a movie for the land. It gave my heart something to focus on besides the excruciating pain I was feeling internally. It seemed that each passing day only got more intense, but over and over again, I found my heart continually crying out to Father saying:

"Father, I stretch my heart to You, no other help I know. You CANNOT withdraw Yourself from me. I CANNOT let you go!"

During these intense days, Mother sent me an email asking me to come over to her house. I went over and she discussed a business matter with me, but after talking to her, I didn't leave right away. She then told me that she and Ami had been praying for me. Those words were like ointment poured forth on my bleeding aching heart, and I broke down bawling. I realized that I was on Father's heart and He hadn't forgotten about me. Mother had me come over to her and I just buried my face in her lap and started sobbing. She then held me on her lap for a while and I really got Father's heart of love for me. I saw that Father was in the process of working the miracle that my heart so much needed. He was on my case and my visit with Mother was a great encouragement to me.

Off and on the pressure came and went for me, but it was clear that Father was on my case and He was going to come off victorious. Mother was a great encouragement to me during these intense days, and one night she felt me so strong on her heart that she had to keep a heating pad on her heart all night. She said she felt like she was birthing me right out of her chest. When she shared this with me, the verse came to me, "Greater love has no one than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends." I knew that Mother had laid down her life for me and she was "birthing" me in this process.

I hadn't seen Michael in several days because He was shut away, but my heart started feeling more and more drawn to Him. I finished the little movie I made for Him and the land, and I really wanted Him to see it. So I wrote Him a note and put it in His drop box for Him. That afternoon, He wrote me this email about it:

Oh Dani.....sweet witness.....thank you.

I have placed the movie back out in the box for you.

I got His email and I told Him I would come and get it. I had a fleeting thought that maybe He would come out and see me when I got the disk. As I was walking up to the drop box, the door opened, and out He came! He did come out to see me!! It was soo sweet to me. I had been wanting to see Him and Father answered my prayer.

He told me that His heart had been drawn out to me the last couple of days and that He had been wanting to see me. I told Him how my heart had been really drawn to see Him also. I had a really sweet little visit with Him and it was more encouragement for my heart. Everywhere I turned, Father's fingerprints of love for me were revealing themselves.

Michael shared with me that the movie I made Him was so drawing to His heart and He saw my heart in a way He had never seen it before. That really touched my heart.

My drawing to Michael started intensifying and I felt a longing to see Michael. I asked Him in an email if I could come over and He said I could. During my visit with Him, my heart was physically aching and my whole being was drawn so strongly to Him, that I could hardly contain it. For a while, my heart knew what the premonition was, but my mind was stopping my heart from telling Michael, because I had already written it to Him in emails and He didn't acknowledge it.

After visiting Michael, I went home and this poem just flowed out of my aching heart.

Ache

Through the darkness of the night
My soul searches for Thee
