This
Sunday, the 9th of April, marks another year of the South’s
subjugation to Yankees, globalists, and other destructive forces: It is the day in 1865 on which the main army
of the Confederate States, Gen Lee’s Army of Northern Virginia, surrendered to
Gen Grant at Appomattox Courthouse in Virginia. Since then, countless evils have been visited
upon the South: the demonization of our
heroes and way of life, the murder and exploitation of our countrymen, the inbringing
of many foreign ideas and abstract rights - Jim Crow, abortion, Fundementalism,
transgenderism, etc. - and all the rest of that horrible list.
But
Dixie is not alone in suffering such things,
and we should learn how others have dealt with them so that we too might emerge
after the dark days of captivity are over with our traditions intact.
One
thing we can do is to keep the day of calamity as a solemn day of fasting and
prayer, and encourage all other Southerners to do likewise. The Old Testament Jews did this to
commemorate the destruction of Jerusalem
and their exile under the Babylonians (see Zechariah ch. 8). The Serbians still do this in remembrance of
the Great Martyr Tsar Lazar and all the martyrs of Kosovo who suffered at the
hands of the Turkish invaders on 15 June 1389, and some even fast every
Tuesday, the day of the week when the battle took place.

For
more than 600 years the Serbs have been faithful to their fallen brethren, but
the South has mostly rejected ours after only 150.
[40] And he cometh unto the disciples, and
findeth them asleep, and saith unto Peter, What, could ye not watch with me one
hour?
[41] Watch and pray, that ye enter not into temptation: the spirit indeed is willing, but the flesh is weak.

Southerners
must be more watchful. We must fast and
pray as best we can on April 9th this year, though it is Palm
Sunday, a day when fasting is usually relaxed somewhat - and every year. We ought to consider prayers and fasting of
some kind every Saturday as well, the day of the week when the surrender
happened.
For
prayers, some here would be useful for this occasion with some slight changes:
This
one in particular from that site is very good (opened 27 Oct. 2016):
O Master, Lord our God, unto Thee do we pray, and
Thee do we sinners, Thine unworthy servants, beseech, that Thou regard the
entreaty of us sinners, Thy useless servants, and have mercy upon us: for our
iniquities and sins have gone over our heads, O Master, and we have become an
object of reproach for the nations, and of mockery and derision for the ungodly
[enemies] who beset us;
and we have been humbled even unto death because of
our sins and iniquities, and our blasphemies.
Who will not weep over us who are brought so
low?Who will not lament this our captivity?For all of this hath come upon us
because of our sins, and iniquities and blasphemies.
Wherefore, though honored children of Sion, we have
been reckoned as a potter’s vessels;
wherefore, gold hath tarnished and good silver hath
corroded;
wherefore, though Nazarites of Sion who shone forth
more brightly than snow, we have become black as coal;
though whiter than milk, we have become darker than
ink;
though we are clad in fleece, we have been clothed
in shame, and our iniquities have been magnified beyond the iniquities of Sodom;
wherefore, though children of the day and of the
light, we have become children of the night and of darkness;
wherefore, though children of the kingdom, we have
become slaves of iniquitous enemies and infidel nations: for we have sinned, we
have committed iniquity, we have dealt unrighteously, breaking the commandments
of our Lord God.
Yet forsake us not utterly, for the sake of Thy
name, O Lord, and break not Thy covenant, and take not Thy mercy away from us,
for the sake of Thy compassions, O our Father Who art in the heavens, and for
the sake of the lovingkindness of Thine only-begotten Son, and the mercy of Thy
Holy Spirit;
neither remember Thou our iniquities and sins.
But let Thy compassions go quickly before us, O
Lord, for we are become exceeding poor.
Help us, O God our Savior, for the sake of the
glory of Thy name.
Accept the confession of us sinners, Thine
unprofitable servants, for the sake of the precious and holy Blood of Thy Son,
our Lord Jesus Christ, which He shed for the life of the world;
for the sake of His holy apostles and the martyrs
who struggled to shed their own blood for His holy name;
and for the sake of the holy prophets, fathers and
patriarchs who strove to be well-pleasing to Thy name.
Spurn not our entreaties, O Lord, neither depart
not utterly from us;
for we place no hope in our own righteousness, but
in Thy mercy, wherewith Thou dost acquire our generation.
Wherefore, we beseech and entreat Thy goodness:
Turn us not away from Thy face, neither disdain our unworthiness;
but have mercy upon us according to Thy great
mercy, and according to the multitude of Thy compassions overlook our
iniquities and sins.
Yea, O omnipotent Master, hearken to the entreaties
of us sinners, and help Thy people, and strengthen our army in time of war, and
render it powerful and mighty.
As Thou gavest strength against the adversaries to
Joshua son of Nun and to David Thy prophet, so, O Lord Jesus Christ our God, do
Thou strengthen and help Thy people, who call upon Thy holy name, for we know
none other God than Thee, and we call upon Thy name;
for Thou art He Who worketh all things in all men,
and from Thee do we seek help.
Wherefore, look down from heaven, O Lord, and
direct Thy gaze from the holy house of Thy glory.
Where is Thy zeal, and where Thy strength? Where is
the magnitude of Thy mercy and Thy compassions?For Thou art our God, and Thy
name is upon us.
Reconsider, O Lord, for the sake of Thy servants,
for the sake of Thy Holy Church, for the sake of all Thy saints from ages past.
Our opponents have trampled upon Thy holiness;
and we have become as we were in the beginning,
when Thou didst not exercise Thy dominion over us;
for we have all become unclean;
all our righteousness is like a filthy rag, and we
have fallen like leaves because of our iniquities;
and there is no-one who calleth upon Thy name and
remembereth Thee, that Thou mightest help us.
And Thou hast turned Thy face away from us and abandoned
us for the sake of our sins, and iniquities and blasphemies, the enemies, the
prideful and the infidel nations puffing themselves up.
And now, O Lord our God, be Thou not utterly wroth,
for if Thou wilt open heaven, the mountains will tremble at Thy presence and
will move from their place, and fire shall consume our adverse and iniquitous
foes, and Thy name shall be awesome to those who oppose Thee.
All this time we have not lifted our eyes to any
other god.
Wherefore, O Master, look down now from heaven, and
see, and save us for the sake of Thy holy name, and deliver us from our ungodly
enemies, and free us from their wiles, plots and snares;
and deprive us not of Thy mighty aid, for we are
not strong enough to prevail over those who assail us, but Thou hast the power
to save us from our adverse and unbelieving foes.
Strengthen Thy people and our army, and make it
steadfast, powerful and mighty in time of war;
and cast down, and break in pieces and set at
nought the ungodly and unbelieving barbarians, our . . . foes, and grant glory
to Thy holy name, lest the nations say: Where is their God? Through the
supplications and entreaty of our most glorious Mistress, the Theotokos, and of
all Thy saints.
For Thou art our help and strength, and we send up
glory unto Thee—the unoriginate Father, Thine only-begotten Son, and Thine
all-holy, good and life-creating Spirit—now and ever, and unto the ages of
ages.
Amen.
Lord
Jesus Christ, Son of God, have mercy on us sinners at the South!

ReplyDeleteby HIS Hand that made all things of nothing and gives being to all

So the light here kindled hath shone unto many. Yea in some sort

To live at this time is an inestimable privilege, and a sacred obligation devolves
upon us to make right use of our duties to GOD, Family and Country.

I’m afraid the Puritans won’t be of much help here. It is their heretical idea of America as the Messiah Nation, as some sort of new religion and/or church, that has given rise to events like this one in Syria and many others before it.
