Babylon – 12th Year of King Ahaz

2 Kings 17:1-41 17 In the twelfth year of Ahaz king of Judah, Hoshea the son of Elah became king of Israel in Samaria, and he reigned nine years. 2 And he did evil in the sight of the Lord, but not as the kings of Israel who were before him. 3 Shalmaneser king of Assyria came up against him; and Hoshea became his vassal, and paid him tribute money. 4 And the king of Assyria uncovered a conspiracy…

HER STORY: Kings and Queens, Jezebel

Is this a story about a powerful and ambitious Phoenician princess who was vilified because she was a woman? Or of another culture? Or was there something more sinister that lurked within her? #Jezebel #Ahaz #Elijah #Baal

Just the word “jezebel” evokes a whole evil, erotic, seductive mystique, doesn’t it? I looked “jezebel” up in the dictionary, and here’s what Webster-Merriam has to say: “an impudent, shameless, or morally unrestrained woman.” According to other definitions, A jezebel is a wicked, evil, scheming female who is manipulates her victims into giving her wealth, status and power. She is often…

When Kings Rise and Fall

Thru the Bible in a Year Reading through 2 Chronicles 26–28 is like opening a time capsule that spans eighty years of Judah’s royal history. In these chapters, we meet three very different kings—Uzziah, Jotham, and Ahaz—each leaving a unique legacy. From triumph to tragedy, construction to corruption, these kings illustrate a timeless truth: leadership without humility leads to ruin, while…

Isaiah the Prophet

The Prophet Esaias, the son of Amos, was descended from a royal tribe. He prophesied in the days of Ozias (who is also called Azarias), Joatham, Ahaz, and Hezekias, Kings of Judah. About 681 B.C, in the reign of Manasses, the son and successor of the most pious Hezekias, when this Prophet was censuring Manasses' impiety and lawlessness, he was sawn asunder with a wooden saw, and thus received a martyr's end.

Of all the Prophets, he is called the most eloquent because of the beauty and loftiness of his words. His book of prophecy, divided into sixty-six chapters, is ranked first among the greater Prophets. The Fifth Ode of the Psalter, "Out of the night my spirit waketh at dawn unto Thee, O God . . ." is taken from his book. It was this holy Prophet who foretold that a Virgin would conceive in the womb (7:14); that not an ambassador, nor an angel, but the Lord Himself would save fallen man (63:9); that the Messiah would suffer, bearing our sins (ch. 53). His name means "Yah is helper."

Dreaming in Silver and Gold Preview

Guess who's been writing? Here's a preview for the next chapter of disag if anyone wants to see it. :) This is unedited btw.

7 months later.

There’s ice.

The first thing he’s aware of is the slow numb feeling of ice creeping up his spine. His cell quiets with each heartbeat and he can see his breath in the cold. The only noise Klaus can hear is his breathing in and out. He shivers and he can’t stop his body from continuing to shake. 

There’s blood in his mouth and he’s not sure if it’s his.

Two guards lay dead at his feet. He spits onto the floor and clears his throat. His voice is raw from lack of use. Despite the dead guards, Klaus knows better than to try to escape. He’s tried. The fortress that Ahaz uses is like a labyrinth; unless he gets an opportunity to explore more, there is no escape. He retreats into a corner and waits for more guards to come and restrain him. He had broken out of his bonds easily and knows that they’ll strengthen his restraints this time. This was foolish. 

Time seems slow, and he can almost see the dust particles freeze where they float through the light. A shape swims into focus as his eyes adjust to their surroundings.

The person in front of him gets clearer as his eyes reconnect. Ravenna appears, the tendrils of her hair flowing around her body. She stands in front of him and her palms face him at her side. Blood still flows off of her armor and the drops drip onto the dirt floor. Moonlight flows into his cell and it's the only light. His focus finds her gaze and a slow fanged smile spreads across her beautiful bruised face. 

“I see you’ve been playing nicely.”

“Go to hell.” Klaus spits the words at her like venom. 

Ravenna has popped up a few times over the last few months. Usually to play with him, deliver a cryptic message or vision, and then vanish. It always boils down to him needing to release his horseman form. 

“Nice to see you too.” she smiles at him and begins to pace around him. “You look a little worse for wear.”

He knows. He’s too thin and there’s a coldness that has settled into his bones. He’s a creature used to endless fire and now he’s surrounded by damp and cold. He feels stiff and so incredibly old. His wings are in a sorry state. They had broken one a few months ago and it hadn’t healed right. 

“You told me to play nice.” He flashes her a feral smile and takes a rattling breath.

“Mmm, and it appears you have. Have you thought more about your destiny?”

“Like I’ve told you a million times before, I don’t see how releasing my horseman form is going to help anything.”

Her eyes sparkle with mischief and an emotion he can’t place, maybe pity. “That’s because,” Instantly her crimson-colored eyes flash white, and light engulfs his cell. “You do not see.”

He’s suddenly floating as the walls of his cell fall away. Starlight and a blue and purple galaxy cradle him as stars wisp past him. The yawning abyss of nothingness drifts past him as he looks to an endless starry heaven. Stars are born and die around him and a ruined crater-filled landscape swims into view. He and Ravenna float eons above it and he takes in the rocks and crevices. There’s weapons scattering the expanse of land, bits of armor, and broken bodies. A battlefield. He tries his hardest to see if he can recognize a familiar piece of armor, a weapon, or god forbid a body but nothing comes into focus. 

Suddenly a cataclysmic explosion rocks the landscape. Dust rolls out in a cloud around a newly formed crater. The battlefield vanishes as a body as big as a mountain crashes to the ground. A massive red-scaled dragon writhes in pain. Its muzzle is as big as a temple and smoke billows out of it. Ichor leaks from its mah as it gasps for breath. Klaus doesn’t know how he knows it but this being is older than the earth itself. 

Klaus’ vision is disrupted as another explosion erupts in front of them. Searing light engulfs everything it touches and two other figures bigger than the dragon loom over it. One of the figures has a face like the sun engulfed in so much light that even the fire across the landscape seems to dim. Its white robes and armor billow around it as it shoves its boot into the neck of the dragon. The other figure made up of vines and flowing water holds a spear to the dragon's belly made out of a giant redwood tree. 

“You have betrayed us.” the sun hisses and his voice booms across the battlefield. 

The dragon begins to laugh, smoke and ichor seeping into the ground below it. He goes to move and the other being made of nature shoves their spear further. The dragon hisses in pain. “You betrayed the beings you created first. It seemed only fair.” 

Klaus now understands what he’s seeing but he doesn’t know if it’s a vision of the past or the future. The god of the sun, Adastros. The goddess of nature. The god of the abyss, Demetre. Was this a vision of the battlefield during the war or was this something different? They continue to speak but Klaus can not hear them. A ringing in his ears grows louder and he looks down to see the earth racing up towards him. 

He’s thrown against the stone floor of his cell and his body aches like he had just free-fallen through space. His breathing is ragged and he hisses up at Ravenna floating above him.

“What was that?” Klaus demands. 

“It will not be enough,” Ravenna whispers. “The angels will not be enough this time. There will be no winners in this fight. All will perish if you do not intervene.”

“I am a being of destruction.” Klaus hisses. “How would this help?”

“You don’t have to be,” Ravenna says. She reaches up and lays a hand on his wing. He doesn’t know how but he feels warmth radiate through him as his wing heals back into place. “You don’t have to be.” 

She says it a little more confidently the second time. Her hand lingers on his wing and she looks up at him. “You are a god, Klaus. It’s time you start acting like one.”
