FIRE BY NIGHT
"Reflections Upon Reflections" [of The Father's Heart]
JANUARY 27TH
KEEP YOUR EYES "FIXED" ON JESUS
Words of prophecy:
* ...."It is now
the time of moving [in and by the power of My Spirit] all those who are truly
seeking Me into that place where I desire them to be, and I shall bring
together My holy apostles and prophets and I shall establish them in the areas
from which they shall operate in this final hour. All those of My children who
truly love Me must seek Me diligently in prayer in these days in order that
they might come to know the place that I have called them to, and that they
might gain a revelation of those whom they are to be "associated"
with. For this matter of true unity [one accord] - and the pure "corporate
anointing" that is its spontaneous by-product - is of great importance
and, because of this, Satan is attempting to lead many away from the place
where I desire them to be. Let it be clearly understood that I do not have
"two" places for My children to be and, truly I say to you, the time
is short! Therefore, let all those who would truly be found serving Me, hearken
to the voice of My Spirit for when all have entered their "proper
place", they shall see My Glory descend upon them, and they shall go forth
in great power and authority to do mighty deeds [exploits] in My name! This is
a time wherein I desire My children to proceed forth [in every word they speak
and every action they take] with a holy caution - refusing to move in any way
[big or small], until they have received a revelation of My Will in their
heart. In this way, they shall "safeguard" against all of the
deceptions of the Evil One. Truly I say to you, there is not one who, in
knowing [having a revelation of] those wondrous things that shall soon come to
pass in and through My Glorious Church, would desire to be in the "wrong
place". For I shall open up the heavens and pour forth blessings that
shall continually thrill the hearts of My beloved ones!"....
Hebrews 12:1-2 NASB
Colossians 3:1-4 NASB
One thing that is very
important to remember [as one continues to seek the fullness of the Father's
plan for their life and ministry] is they must just simply continue to keep
their eyes "fixed" on Jesus [the Word of God]. For it is ONLY in the
"maintaining" of this heart-attitude [keeping one's eyes fixed on the
"things above"] that one can continually rise above the deep darkness
that is even now beginning to consume all those whose hearts are not
"wholly" given to God - those who have continued to remain in
heart-fellowship with the world and its ways [fear, selfishness, rebellion
etc]. One must never fear those whose first and foremost desire is to hold to
the "outward" formalities of "denominationalism", but
rather, in love and faith and obedience continue to intercede for all those
they know who are caught in ANY form of religious bondage - while at the same
time maintaining [guarding] their own heart with ALL diligence so that they
might continually be found to be a glorious light to all those who cross their
path. It is the Father's plan to raise up a Glorious Church that will literally
draw - by His great and awesome love [much like a magnet] - all those who truly
desire to fulfil the fullness of their destiny in Christ right out of the midst
of those who proclaim their faithfulness to God, but refuse to lay down their
selfish desires and the self-agendas that are their spontaneous by-product. It
is a very dangerous thing in these days to be in "heart-fellowship"
with anyone who is not truly seeking first the Kingdom of God - and the release
of His "righteousness" in all that they say and do!
THE "RELIGIOUS" ESTABLISHMENT ALWAYS SEEKS TO
"FORCE" ANYTHING OR ANYONE WHO DOES NOT AGREE WITH IT TO CONFORM TO
ITS WAY OF THINKING
There are many precious
saints throughout the Body of Christ in these days who, in their obedience to
the Holy Spirit, have found themselves persecuted by the "religious
establishment". They are being compelled to forsake the path the Father
has clearly directed them onto and are being asked to "come under"
the "covering" that their local denomination or "fellowship"
offers. Let it once again be clearly stated that the Father is about to move
forth in great power to remove ALL "stumbling blocks" [one who sets
their heart on their own interests and NOT God's interests] from the path of
all those whose hearts are seeking the fullness of His glorious plan for their
life and ministry. He will deal very harshly in this hour with those who
continue to hold fast to their "own" agendas and yet proclaim their
words and actions to be of God! The only "covering" that the true believer
needs they already have in the form of the love of the Father, the precious
Blood of Jesus and the Holy Spirit. As those who are seeking the fullness of
the Father's will concerning their fellowship - regardless of how big or small
it is - continue on in obedience to the leading and guiding of the Holy Spirit
THEN He will establish the proper delegated authorities [overseers] in His
perfect timing [if they are not already in place]. The Father is doing a
glorious work in our midst, and it is extremely important to ALWAYS remember
that His ultimate aim is to establish a Church that does nothing apart from
Christ [the Anointed One and His Anointing] in order that Jesus might once
again have pre-eminence in our midst at ALL times. This is how the harvest will
be gathered: all that is said and done by the Glorious Church will be by the
unadulterated power of the Holy Spirit - and His power alone. A very high
target indeed, but we have a mighty God!
A WORD TO ALL THOSE WHO ARE TRULY SEEKING FIRST
THE KINGDOM:
Again, it is
extremely important to "fellowship" ONLY where the Holy Spirit leads
one. If one is in a situation where somebody who is offering to prophesy, pray
or lay hands on them but they [for whatever reason] do not have peace then they
must refuse. If the person who offered the prayer is truly walking and
operating in love then they will just move on. If they are "in the
flesh" they will become offended because their deepest intent and motivation
all along was to be "seen" and "heard". It, of course, can
be downright dangerous - spiritually speaking - in fellowships who are not
walking in the Glory of God, as Satan is continually attempting to infiltrate
gatherings and release his darkness and death - both from the pulpit and in the
midst of the congregation. This is precisely why the Father is establishing
many "glorious connections" in these days and moving many
"sheep" to their proper pasture [true spiritual environment] - one
without "wolves" and "serpents" and "scorpions"!
As far as seeking what your next move is: Do not step out presumptuously -
whatever the cost. Seek the Father for the necessary revelation, and do not
allow yourself to be moved by "anything" other than the pure
revelation from the Throne Room - that will SURELY be forthcoming as you
continue to minister to Him in the "inner chamber".
