holyfire


You, my brothers and sisters, were born, you were called, you were sanctified to be free.  Freedom dwells within you as this is how the Lord formed you.   There’s a fire that’s deeper than the very hunger and thirst for the Father; it’s a fire that is contagious, freely igniting anything and everything within it�s path.  Steam and smoke blaze for everyone within miles to see; it’s the very Holy fire of Christ that’s on the throne of heaven. 


The Lord points to His throne and smiles with that gentle look and shows you that there is no power in all of heaven and earth that can come against this fire.  The Lord then motions you to look closer at the throne itself and you began to shudder as you feel the fire, but do not see it.  You smell the passion coming from its smoke, but you do not see where it is coming from.  It’s almost intoxicating, but you recognize the fire as you have recognized that smell before.  You began to walk with Christ to the secret place of His Kingdom.  He draws you closer, as if He wants to show you something…  He then points to your heart.  You look at your heart and look confused at what He’s trying to show you.  The Lord asks you to look at your heart closer, just like you looked at the throne.  You see nothing.  Then, the Lord pulls back all of the robes, veils, and other obstacles and shows you the fire… within your heart.  You began to cry as you didn’t even expect that this was within you.  You heard it was, but you start to smile as the Lord wipes your tears away and says to you “Son, you were looking so hard for that fire, when it was deep within you the entire time.  You smelt its fire, but never looked closer within.  Son, but I need you to tear away all of these obstacles keeping you from the fire… unlock the doors, tear away the obstacles, come into my secret place and unlock your fire… it’s yours, my son.  It�s your eternity… don’t let anything come in the way.  And one last thing my son, don’t close your eyes.”

“you my brothers were called to be free.  But do not use your freedom to indulge the sinful nature, rather serve one another in love.”

    wow erik… that was honestly really powerful!  It really blessed be.  Not to puff you up or anything (but you are my brother, so I feel as if I can)… it sounded like I was reading something from Max Lucado!  Thanks for sharing that bit of your heart!
