the FireCarrier

Jesus said to his disciples: “Things that cause people to stumble are bound to come, but woe to anyone through whom they come. It would be better for them to be thrown into the sea with a millstone tied around their neck than to cause one of these little ones to stumble. So watch yourselves. “If your brother or sister sins against you, rebuke them; and if they repent, forgive them. Even if they sin against you seven times in a day and seven times come back to you saying ‘I repent,’ you must forgive them.” ‭‭Luke‬ ‭17‬:‭1‬-‭4‬ ‭NIV‬‬ I am with you. Wherever you may go, I will be there. I will cover you in my love. Stop to listen for me. My peace is free. It will cover and fill you. My love provides what you need.

He says, Be still, and know that I am God; I will be exalted among the nations, I will be exalted in the earth. The LORD Almighty is with us; the God of Jacob is our fortress. ‭‭Psalms‬ ‭46‬:‭10‬-‭11‬ ‭NIV‬‬ Watch and enjoy nature all about you. It is a part of my creation. Don't allow the accusations of the enemy to guide you. His wishes for you are to cause pain and to lead you to death. I am the life. I am the only way for everlasting life. Come now. Ask me to be with you. Know I am yet GOD.

As for other matters, brothers and sisters, we instructed you how to live in order to please God, as in fact you are living. Now we ask you and urge you in the Lord Jesus to do this more and more. For you know what instructions we gave you by the authority of the Lord Jesus. It is God’s will that you should be sanctified: that you should avoid sexual immorality; that each of you should learn to control your own body in a way that is holy and honorable, ‭‭1 Thessalonians‬ ‭4‬:‭1‬-‭4‬ ‭NIV‬‬ I have covered you in my light. Follow it. Turn off the noise which distracts you from me. Walk in the way I have shown you. Be filled with my word. Allow it to guide you in all truth. It contains the only life you need.

I am sending you out like sheep among wolves. Therefore be as shrewd as snakes and as innocent as doves. Be on your guard; you will be handed over to the local councils and be flogged in the synagogues. On my account you will be brought before governors and kings as witnesses to them and to the Gentiles. But when they arrest you, do not worry about what to say or how to say it. At that time you will be given what to say, for it will not be you speaking, but the Spirit of your Father speaking through you. ‭‭Matthew‬ ‭10‬:‭16‬-‭20‬ ‭NIV‬‬ Don't turn back, but keep moving forward in the direction I have placed within you. I have made you unique, different from others, yet in my lineage. Listen, and you will hear me encouraging you. I am leading you  in the direction to be going.

Therefore Jesus said again, Very truly I tell you, I am the gate for the sheep. All who have come before me are thieves and robbers, but the sheep have not listened to them. I am the gate; whoever enters through me will be saved. They will come in and go out, and find pasture. The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy; I have come that they may have life, and have it to the full. I am the good shepherd. The good shepherd lays down his life for the sheep. ‭‭John‬ ‭10‬:‭7‬-‭11‬ ‭NIV‬‬ Look ahead. See through the tangled messes and missed dreams. Learn my Word and the direction it holds for you. I was there before the beginning and will yet be there after the worldly end. Do not fear but continue to follow me. Look ahead, I am there to protect and lead you.

LORD, I know that people’s lives are not their own; it is not for them to direct their steps. Discipline me, LORD, but only in due measure— not in your anger, or you will reduce me to nothing. Pour out your wrath on the nations that do not acknowledge you, on the peoples who do not call on your name. For they have devoured Jacob; they have devoured him completely and destroyed his homeland. ‭‭Jeremiah‬ ‭10‬:‭23‬-‭25‬ ‭NIV Look for me and you will find me. I am there ever-with you. Failures are in the past. Now move forward. I am with you. I will guide you in the way I have created for you.
