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
JANUARY 31ST
"TRANSITION" OF ANY KIND ALWAYS CAUSES ONE TO BECOME
"DISORIENTED" FOR A TIME
Words of Prophecy
* Listen
closely to My voice for I am seeking those who are one with My heart. Do not
lean on your own understanding when you see what is going on around you and
amongst you. Walk by faith in all things and not by sight. For My ways are
higher than your ways and my thoughts higher than your thoughts. Lean heavily
on My Word in all things and do not fear for I am with you.
* Truly I say to you,
you shall reap the benefits of learning to walk above the sense realm; for in
this last hour My faithful ones will be moved ONLY by My Word, and they shall
refuse to deviate from the path which I have chosen for them - regardless of
the futile attempts of the Evil One.
* My children must make
the "transition" from putting their faith in "past experience"
to putting their faith solely upon the revelation of My Word - in any given
moment.
* In these days, I am
bringing my "forerunners" into perfect position - both spiritually
and locationally. At times, this "transition" will cause you to experience
a "seeming" disorientation that will lead you to feel a certain
"discomfort" but, in reality, I am doing the necessary fine-tuning [polishing] that will, ultimately, lead you into the
fullness of your precious destiny [Kingdom-position].
Truly I say to you, I will make ALL things evident in this most critical and
glorious hour to those who truly love Me - those whose heart is wholly given to
My highest purposes. For it is My deepest heart-desire to establish a Glorious
Church in the earth - a Church without spot or wrinkle. Trust Me in ALL things
for I am with you - and I will NEVER leave you nor forsake you!
* It is all about to
"change" for all those who truly love Me
[those who are truly seeking first My Kingdom] - those who desire to be
righteously motivated above all else, and in ALL things.
"change" - to make the form,
nature, content, future course, etc. of [something]
different from what it is or from what it would be if left alone; to substitute
another or others for; to remove and replace the covering or coverings of;
...."But
seek [aim at and strive after] first of all His kingdom and His righteousness
[His way of doing and being right], and then all these things taken together
will be given you besides. So do not worry or be anxious about tomorrow, for
tomorrow will have worries and anxieties of its own. Sufficient for each day is
its own trouble"..... Matthew 6:33-34 The Amplified Translation
...."Behold,
the former things have come to pass, now I declare new things; Before they
spring forth I proclaim them to you".... Isaiah 42:9 NASB
...."Do not
call to mind the former things, or ponder things of the past. Behold, I will do
something new, now it will spring forth; Will you not be aware of it? I will
even make a roadway in the wilderness, rivers in the desert".... Isaiah
43:18-19 NASB
...."I tell
you that He will bring about justice for them quickly. However, when the Son of
Man comes, will He find faith on the earth?" Luke 18:8 NASB
...."By faith Abraham, when he
was called, obeyed by going out to a place which he was to receive for an
inheritance; and he went out, not knowing where he was going".... Hebrews
11:8 NASB
There comes a
time
[sometimes "many" times]
in our lives where we are called to step out in
[for
lack of a better term] "blind" faith
[although it is never truly "blind" because our
path is still founded on the seeds of revelation in our heart]. It
is termed blind because it "seems" that way to our five physical senses.
Many years ago the Father told me that we
[the
Glorious Church] would be a people who refuse to be
"moved" by their five physical senses - choosing, instead, to be
moved ONLY by a revelation of His Word
[Will].
A "transition" of ANY kind
[in this case,
from fear to an absolute faith - and the "world" and its ways to the
Kingdom] always causes one to become disoriented to some degree for
a time. All we have to go on is our past experience
[Christian
or otherwise] so when the Lord is doing something "new" we
have absolutely NO way to get our "bearings" - until such a time as
we gain a revelation of the special work and preparation He is doing in our
heart for that which is to come. Again, there are times
[in the process of refining, polishing and divine preparation] that we must just simply trust Him with ALL of our
heart
[even though we seem to have no idea
circumstantially-speaking what is going on at times]. This
[our faith and trust in Him] totally blesses the
Father's heart
[and, of course, He knows the end
from the beginning] but, at the same time, continually shakes
everything in us that can be shaken. Again, "revelation" is the key
to all things in walking out the true Christian life in the Kingdom. Without
revelation - and the continual exercising of faith in what has been revealed to
one's heart - they will not remain standing in the Will
[Word] of God in
this final hour - without exception.
...."And
without faith it is impossible to please Him, for he who comes to God must
believe that He is and that He is a rewarder of those who seek Him"....
Hebrews 11:6 NASB
...."And
His voice shook the earth then, but now He has promised, saying, 'Yet once more
I will shake not only the earth, but also the heaven.' This expression,
"Yet once more," denotes the removing of those things which can be
shaken, as of created things, so that those things which cannot be shaken may
remain. Therefore, since we receive a kingdom which cannot be shaken, let us
show gratitude, by which we may offer to God an acceptable service with
reverence and awe; for our God is a consuming fire".... Hebrews 12:26-29
NASB
