the FireCarrier

   My son, give attention to my words; Incline your ear to my sayings.    Do not let them depart from your sight; Keep them in the midst of your heart. For they are life to those who find them And health to all their body.    Watch over your heart with all diligence, For from it flow the springs of life.    Put away from you a deceitful mouth And put devious speech far from you.    Let your eyes look directly ahead And let your gaze be fixed straight in front of you.    Watch the path of your feet And all your ways will be established.    Do not turn to the right nor to the left; Turn your foot from evil. ‭‭Proverbs‬ ‭4‬:‭20‬-‭27‬ ‭NASB1995 My blessing remains. I am the never-changing‬‬ truth. Seek me each day. Allow my guiding to keep you safe and on the pathway created for you. Consume my written word. Remember to bless others as I bless you. Do not allow fear to guide you. Walk with me.

Then Jacob called for his sons and said: “Gather around so I can tell you what will happen to you in days to come. Assemble and listen, sons of Jacob; listen to your father Israel. Reuben, you are my firstborn, my might, the first sign of my strength, excelling in honor, excelling in power. Turbulent as the waters, you will no longer excel, for you went up onto your father’s bed, onto my couch and defiled it. Simeon and Levi are brothers— their swords are weapons of violence. Let me not enter their council, let me not join their assembly, for they have killed men in their anger and hamstrung oxen as they pleased. Cursed be their anger, so fierce, and their fury, so cruel! I will scatter them in Jacob and disperse them in Israel. Judah, your brothers will praise you; your hand will be on the neck of your enemies; your father’s sons will bow down to you. You are a lion’s cub, Judah; you return from the prey, my son. Like a lion he crouches and lies down, like a lioness—who dares to rouse...

Therefore, I urge you, brothers and sisters, in view of God’s mercy, to offer your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and pleasing to God— this is your true and proper worship. Do not conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God’s will is—his good, pleasing and perfect will. ‭‭Romans‬ ‭12‬:‭1‬-‭2‬ ‭NIV Let your prayers be lifted upward. Leave them upon my altar. Do not become discouraged by the enemy, but stand secure with me. Feed upon my word. I am with you in every turn of your life. If you watch you will find me there and recognize my encouraging you to join in with me. Become a part of what I am doing.

After he had dismissed them, he went up on a mountainside by himself to pray. Later that night, he was there alone, and the boat was already a considerable distance from land, buffeted by the waves because the wind was against it. Shortly before dawn Jesus went out to them, walking on the lake. When the disciples saw him walking on the lake, they were terrified. “It’s a ghost,” they said, and cried out in fear. But Jesus immediately said to them: “Take courage! It is I. Don’t be afraid.” “Lord, if it’s you,” Peter replied, “tell me to come to you on the water.” “Come,” he said. Then Peter got down out of the boat, walked on the water and came toward Jesus. But when he saw the wind, he was afraid and, beginning to sink, cried out, “Lord, save me!” Immediately Jesus reached out his hand and caught him. “You of little faith,” he said, “why did you doubt?” ‭‭Matthew‬ ‭14‬:‭22‬-‭31‬ ‭NIV‬‬ Where do you find yourself? I am there. Learn to recognize me. I still walk upon the waters to those p...

They went to Capernaum, and when the Sabbath came, Jesus went into the synagogue and began to teach. The people were amazed at his teaching, because he taught them as one who had authority, not as the teachers of the law. ‭‭Mark‬ ‭1‬:‭21‬-‭22‬ ‭NIV Open yourself up to me. See the creation through my eyes. The large and the small things are all important. They are a part of my heart. You too are part of my plan. Grow secure in me and not what you think you may see. I am the way for you to continue growing. Learn to walk in the way I have set for you .

Not long after that, Jesus went to the village Nain. His disciples were with him, along with quite a large crowd. As they approached the village gate, they met a funeral procession—a woman’s only son was being carried out for burial. And the mother was a widow. When Jesus saw her, his heart broke. He said to her, “Don’t cry.” Then he went over and touched the coffin. The pallbearers stopped. He said, “Young man, I tell you: Get up.” The dead son sat up and began talking. Jesus presented him to his mother. ‭‭Luke‬ ‭7‬:‭11‬-‭15‬ ‭MSG‬‬ Find me. I am hiding there in front of you. Do not become weary nor frightened. Reach out believing what I have told you. I am there. I will show myself. Walk secure with me, no matter what your natural may tell you. Continue to go forward in me. I am YAHWEH.

I love you, Lord, my strength. The Lord is my rock, my fortress and my deliverer; my God is my rock, in whom I take refuge, my shield and the horn of my salvation, my stronghold. I called to the Lord, who is worthy of praise, and I have been saved from my enemies. The cords of death entangled me; the torrents of destruction overwhelmed me. The cords of the grave coiled around me; the snares of death confronted me. In my distress I called to the Lord; I cried to my God for help. From his temple he heard my voice; my cry came before him, into his ears. The earth trembled and quaked, and the foundations of the mountains shook; they trembled because he was angry. Smoke rose from his nostrils; consuming fire came from his mouth, burning coals blazed out of it. He parted the heavens and came down; dark clouds were under his feet. He mounted the cherubim and flew; he soared on the wings of the wind. He made darkness his covering, his canopy around him— the dark rain clouds of the sky. Out of ...

Whoever is not with me is against me, and whoever does not gather with me scatters. And so I tell you, every kind of sin and slander can be forgiven, but blasphemy against the Spirit will not be forgiven. Anyone who speaks a word against the Son of Man will be forgiven, but anyone who speaks against the Holy Spirit will not be forgiven, either in this age or in the age to come. ‭‭Matthew‬ ‭12‬:‭30‬-‭32‬ ‭NIV‬‬ Do not become discouraged nor lazy, that is the way of the enemy. He is stealing what is not his. His trail leads to confusion and destruction. Follow in my way. Fill your day with my word. It will display truth. It will enlighten you with joy. I am the creator-God. Spend time with me, expecting to hear me.
