the FireCarrier

The Lord your God will raise up for you a prophet like me from among your brothers. You must listen to him. This is what you asked of the Lord your God at Horeb on the day of the assembly, when you said, “Let us not hear the voice of the Lord our God or see this great fire anymore, so that we will not die!” Then the Lord said to me, “They have spoken well. I will raise up for them a prophet like you from among their brothers. I will put My words in his mouth, and he will tell them everything I command him. And I will hold accountable anyone who does not listen to My words that the prophet speaks in My name. But if any prophet dares to speak a message in My name that I have not commanded him to speak, or to speak in the name of other gods, that prophet must be put to death. ‭‭Deuteronomy‬ ‭18‬:‭15‬-‭20‬ ‭(BSB‬‬)

Do not be led astray, my beloved brothers. Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above and comes down from the Father of lights, with whom is no change or shadow of turning. Of His own will He brought us forth with the word of truth, that we should be a kind of firstfruits of His creatures. ‭‭James‬ ‭1‬:‭16‬-‭18‬ ‭(MEV‬‬) It is time to remove wrong thinking and junk from your life. It blinds you, keeping you from your time with me. Watch for me reaching out to you. I will steady you. Refill yourself with me. Find the answers you need within my written word.

When Jesus returned, the crowd gladly received Him, for they were all waiting for Him. Then a man named Jairus, who was a ruler of the synagogue, came and fell down at Jesus’ feet, and begged Him to come to his house, for he had an only daughter, about twelve years of age, and she was dying. As He went, the people crowded Him... But when Jesus heard it, He answered him, “Do not fear. Only believe, and she will be made well.” When He came into the house, He permitted no one to go in except Peter, John and James, and the father and mother of the girl. All wept and mourned for her. But He said, “Do not weep. She is not dead but sleeping.” They laughed at Him, knowing that she was dead. But He put them all outside and took her by the hand and called, saying, “Little girl, arise.” Her spirit returned, and she arose immediately. And He told them to give her food. Her parents were astonished, but He commanded them to tell no one what had happened. ‭‭Luke‬ ‭8‬:‭40‬-‭42‬, ‭50‬-‭56‬ (‭MEV)

If a prophet or a dreamer of dreams arises among you and gives you a sign or a wonder, and the sign or the wonder comes to pass concerning that which he spoke to you, saying, “Let us go after other gods,” which you have not known, “and let us serve them,” you must not listen to the words of that prophet or that dreamer of dreams, for the Lord your God is testing you, to know whether you love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul. You must follow after the Lord your God, fear Him, and keep His commandments, obey His voice, and you must serve Him, and cling to Him. ‭‭Deuter­­onomy‬ ‭13‬:‭1‬-‭4‬ ‭(MEV‬‬) Listen to the words I have had others give to you. They contain guidance and encouragement. This is not the time to be timid or self-reflective. Stand firm. It is time to be growing deeper with me. Speak truth in love. Become more aware of me. I will lead you in my way.

As they sailed across, Jesus settled down for a nap. But soon a fierce storm came down on the lake. The boat was filling with water, and they were in real danger. The disciples went and woke him up, shouting, “Master, Master, we’re going to drown!” When Jesus woke up, he rebuked the wind and the raging waves. Suddenly the storm stopped and all was calm. Then he asked them, “Where is your faith?” The disciples were terrified and amazed. Who is this man? they asked each other. When he gives a command, even the wind and waves obey him! ‭‭Luke‬ ‭8‬:‭23‬-‭25‬ ‭(NLT) As you look about, do not feel lost or overwhelmed by circumstances. Follow what I have last placed within you. I am still leading you. Grow strong in my Word. Let it continually feed you with my purpose and direction. It will lead you in the direction you should go.

Now, Israel, what does the Lord your God require of you except to revere him, to obey all his commandments, to love him, to serve him with all your mind and being, and to keep the Lord’s commandments and statutes that I am giving you today for your own good? The heavens – indeed the highest heavens – belong to the Lord your God, as does the earth and everything in it. ‭‭Deuteronomy‬ ‭10‬:‭12‬-‭14‬ (‭NET) Take a few minutes and review your memories. What comes to mind? How does it yet cause you to feel? Healing is available. Allow forgiveness to flow from you, just as I have forgiven you.

I am the Lord, and I do not change. That is why you descendants of Jacob are not already destroyed. ‭‭Malachi‬ ‭3‬:‭6‬ ‭(NLT) Heaven and earth will pass away, but my words will never pass away. ‭‭Matthew‬ ‭24‬:‭35‬ (‭NET)‬‬ Do not be impatient, but wait expectantly for me to answer. I am your unchanging answer. I will continue to guide and guard you in your journey.

Shut down the internal noise and distractions. Ignore the noise from the accuser and close your eyes. Receive from me. I will paint new pictures for you. They are to enlighten the frightened and those lost. It will show them their way to find me. Receive my joy. Grow further in the ways I have planted within you.

Soon afterward Jesus went to a town called Nain, and his disciples and a large crowd went with him. As he approached the town gate, a man who had died was being carried out, the only son of his mother (who was a widow), and a large crowd from the town was with her. When the Lord saw her, he had compassion for her and said to her, “Do not weep.” Then he came up and touched the bier, and those who carried it stood still. He said, “Young man, I say to you, get up!” So the dead man sat up and began to speak, and Jesus gave him back to his mother. ‭‭Luke‬ ‭7‬:‭11‬-‭15‬ ‭(NET‬‬) Do not be fearful. Bring me your failures. Leave them for me to bring back to life. I will direct you to the pathway of life and ways for you to begin your journey. Get up and walk with me .
