Princess Anastasia & the Kingdom Of Divulgence: New Release






This is a Summary of my new Book: a Christian Fantasy, symbolizing how we go through trials and what results of our actions, both good and bad.  God wants to bless us but He cannot love us, like any good parent, and allow us to continue in sin, selfishness, pride, and being unkind and rude.  He is a God of love and to grow into His likeness as said in II Corinthians 3:18, He must weed out the impurities so He can bestow the blessings and the plan He has for us.  He cannot bless us to keep sinning; He will not bless OUR mess, but He will weed them out of us.


(Jeremiah 29:11-14) “For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, says the Lord, thoughts of peace and not of evil, to give you a future and a hope.  Then you will call upon Me and go and pray to Me, and I will listen to you.  And you will seek Me and find Me when you search for Me with all your heart.  I will be found by you, says the Lord, and I will bring you back from your captivity; I will gather you from all the nations and from all the places where I have driven you, says the Lord, and I will bring you to the place from which I cause you to be carried away captive.”


Some of the Characters & their Symbolism:


The Great Creator--God

White Knights --Good knights

Black Knights-represent evil

Lion—Protector (rescues her)—Protector of Mercy

Eagle- Bird of Truth—flew over and screeched when a truth needed to be discovered –like the wisdom we receive from the Word, & the Holy Spirit of God

 Dove of Grace—white dove- bestows gifts of what is needed when needed—Grace of God

Fairies of Light—warned you—Like the Holy Spirit

 

1.     The main character was sent to the Kingdom of Divulgence by a rash wish from her younger sister who is tired of her rudeness, selfishness, and mean ways—(another name for revelation) –Anastasia was prideful, rude, and selfish, and needed a wake-up call, some truth.

2.     She must follow Two Paths to get to the Portal of Freedom—the First Path is the Path of Revelation. This path reveals the sins she needs to admit, confess, and repent of, and the Second Path is the Path of Growth in which there are things revealed in the jewels to teach her and help her to grow and continue on God’s path. However, there is a catch—there are forks in the road and turns and to stay on the RIGHT path, jewels pop up with the issues that she has and things she has done,

a.      She must admit and accept and repent and if needed agree to make amends, in order for the golden arrow to appear on the right path.

b.     If not—the path turns dark – until she admits-she does encounter this several times and when she has to admit pride, she refuses, and the darkness lasts longer. When we rebel—we step away from God’s path and provision and it is through humility and repentance that we come back.

3.     She encounters many setbacks—the black knights, she gets captured, and Sir Anthony, one of the White Knights is always there to come to her rescue, like GOD.

(Hebrews 13:5) “Let your conduct be without covetousness; be content with such things as you have. For He Himself has said, “I will never leave you nor forsake you.”

Like us, on our trials, they are to teach us, reveal sins, and draw something out of us for a purpose God has for us.

(James 1:2-6) “My brethren, count it all joy when you fall into various trials, knowing that the testing of your faith produces patience.  But let patience have its perfect work, that you may be perfect and complete, lacking nothing.  If any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask of God, who gives to all liberally and without reproach, and it will be given to him.  But let him ask in faith, with no doubting, for he who doubts is like a wave of the sea driven and tossed by the wind.”


For example, Hannah was barren, and she had done nothing wrong.  You can read about this in I Samuel chapter 1.  Through her desperate prayers, not eating, and determination to seek the Lord’s help, He answered. She promised the Lord to give her firstborn son to the Lord’s service. And because of that promise, she bore Samuel who became a Priest, a Prophet, the first to anoint kings, and the last of the Judges. He was greatly used by God! This trial was not due to a sin, it was to birth a passion out of her.

 

4.     Princess Anastasia finally understands and humbles herself. Then she begins to continue on the path to the Portal of Freedom, traveling on the second part of her journey. This is the Path of Growth.  At the end of this path, is the Portal of Freedom; the doorway back to her home which is the Kingdom of Enchantment.

5.     Along the Way she falls in love with Sir Anthony.

6.     We do receive blessings as we follow God’s path of love, humility, obedience, respect, reverence, mercy, compassion, kindness, truthfulness, peace, and patience.  God wants to bless us in our lives beyond these character blessings.

7.     But she needs to go through the Portal in order to go back home and honor her promises to the Great Creator. What will happen?  How will she find a way to be with Sir Anthony and keep their love alive?


This story shows how to go through our trials, and how to admit our sins and stay on God’s path.  He longs to be gracious to you, not to harm you.  How will you receive His correction?  How will you travel through your trials?  What attitude will you show?  Will your faith stand in order to make it through to your Promised Land of your answered prayers?


(Isaiah 30:18) “Yet the LORD longs to be gracious to you; therefore, He will rise up to show you compassion. For the LORD is a God of justice. Blessed are all who wait for Him!”
