FIRE BY NIGHT
  
 
                                          "Reflections Upon Reflections" [of The Father's Heart]
  

        ...."You, in Your great compassion, did not forsake them in the wilderness; The pillar of cloud did not leave them by day, to guide them on their way, nor the pillar of fire by night, to light for them the way in which they were to go".... Nehemiah 9:19 NASB

      EVERYONE THAT IS TRULY SEEKING THE WILL OF GOD FOR THEIR LIFE AND MINISTRY HAS TWO CLEAR "FOCUSES" TO PURSUE


"focus"
- a central point, as of attraction, attention or activity;                                                                                                                                     


Words of prophecy:                                                        
 
*          ...."In this last hour My children shall not be able to discern "perfectly" all that crosses their path, nor will their ministering be accurate, unless they first spend the "required" time with Me in perfect fellowship [the inner chamber]!"....

*        ...."The "spirit of mental ascent" is a counterfeit spirit to the "Spirit of wisdom and revelation"!....


        ...."The person who has My commands and keeps them is the one who [really] loves Me; and whoever [really] loves Me will be loved by My Father, and I [too] will love him and will show (reveal, manifest) Myself to him. [I will let Myself be clearly seen by him and make Myself real to him.] Judas, not Iscariot, asked Him, Lord, how is it that You will reveal Yourself [make Yourself real] to us and not to the world? Jesus answered, If a person [really] loves Me, he will keep My word [obey My teaching]; and My Father will love him, and We will come to him and make Our home (abode, special dwelling place) with him"....

                                                                                                                                                                                                    John 14:21-23 The Amplified Translation


          In these days, we are beginning to get a clear glimpse into the Father's heart towards His children, and it is certain that His Person [true Nature] is about to be revealed to a degree never before seen or experienced in the midst of all those who truly love Him [Psalm 25:12-14]. These things will soon become very evident to every faithful and trusting heart - therefore, EVERYONE that is truly seeking the will of God for their life and ministry has two clear "focuses" to pursue. First, they need to begin seeking the Father for a deeper revelation of their own personal calling - and the "gifts" [anointing] that they have been given. Secondly, they must set themselves in His presence [in the "inner chamber"] in order to  prepare for ALL those things that are about to overtake them [Kingdom blessings - financial and otherwise] - and, also, receive the instructions [guidance] from the Holy Spirit that will bring them into the perfect "spiritual environment" that will be necessary for them to enter into the "fullness" of their true Kingdom-position [ministry] in this final hour.

                                                       THE CALL OF THE CHURCH: STEP BY STEP - REVELATION TO REVELATION
 
          In this most excellent hour, the Father is moving powerfully by His Spirit to bring each one of His precious sons and daughters [bondservants and handmaidens]  into the place of an "abiding" fellowship with Him. For it is from this place of an abiding fellowship with the Father [and His Word] that we begin to experience - to a continually greater degree - the "timelessness" of the Kingdom [Eternity] as well as the complete "breakdown" of every "mind-set" [reasoning procedures - logic - presumption] which were the product of years of being "held captive" to a certain degree by a "spirit of mental ascension". This "evil spirit" is a direct counterfeit to the Spirit of wisdom and revelation [Ephesians 1:17-23] and so, from this, one can see clearly that if they are not motivated and guided [through love and godly desire] by the Spirit of wisdom and revelation then they shall "surely" be motivated and guided [through a ground of fear and self-desire] by a spirit of mental ascension [attempting to discern the Word [Will] of God in one's own strength and understanding]. This "spirit" ALWAYS attempts to put its "own spin" on the Word of God, and is a chief weapon used by the hierarchy of "religious spirits" in the kingdom of darkness whose main task is to "warp" the true meaning of God's Word [Will] and, thus, divert [distract] the children of God to a place wherein "they believe" they have the will of God but, in reality, they are becoming more and more deceived with each passing day [through an ever increasing hardening of their heart]. The more they are deceived the more they justify and attempt to vindicate their every word and action - even to the point of blaspheming the "anointing" [the true works of the Holy Spirit] and, thus, the gap is growing between those children of God who are walking by revelation and those who are not [Malachi 3:16-4-3].

THERE IS A NECESSARY "ACCLIMATIZATION" THAT MUST TAKE PLACE IN THE LIVES OF ALL THOSE WHO TRULY DESIRE TO FULFIL THEIR DESTINY IN CHRIST
 
          It must be clearly understood by every child of God desiring to fulfil their precious destiny [in Christ] that in these days there is a necessary "acclimatization" in the "inner chamber" [and in the true "corporate" environments that the Holy Spirit establishes as He "divinely connects" one with others in the Body] that must take place for one to be perfectly enabled and empowered to receive, dwell in, and handle accurately, all of those glorious things that are about to "overtake" the true servants of God. Failure to obey the desires of the Father's heart concerning fellowship with Him on an individual level will preclude that "negligent" one from partaking of their Kingdom position - and, thus, they will fall far short of the Glory that is about to be released in the midst of all those who are truly seeking first the Kingdom of God - and His righteousness [to be righteously motivated in all things][Matthew 6:33]. Again, it is important for every last child of God to both know and realize FULLY that the Father has a perfect "timetable" already set in place for them [Ephesians 2:10], and that each of us must be continually seeking to be found in the right place at the right time - doing the right[eous] things - in and by the power of the Holy Spirit. As one abides in this place of love and righteousness they will most certainly avoid any "unnecessary" hindrances [delays] to the fullness of the Father's will manifesting in their life and ministry in these days. Abiding in this place of intimate fellowship with the Father and His Word will also produce a new found "passion" and "intensity" - a passion and intensity that will translate into the perfect corresponding words and actions in one's "day to day routine" - concerning the fullness of the marvleous plan [vision - dream] that the Father has for them.
