the FireCarrier

Three days have passed and I'm back to that same metro-park, again walking the dogs. Again I heard God talking to me. As I was looking about he asked me "what do you see?". It was so obvious this time, that I was almost embarrassed to answer. There were many trees of various ages which had not fallen or were not damaged. Perhaps it is true, that we see that which we want to see.

  These are the visions I saw while I was lying in my bed: I looked, and there in front of me was a tree standing in the middle of the earth. And it was very tall. The tree grew large and strong. The top of the tree touched the sky and could be seen from anywhere on earth. The leaves of the tree were beautiful. It had plenty of good fruit on it, enough food for everyone. The wild animals found shelter under the tree, and the birds lived in its branches. Every animal ate from it. “As I was looking at those things in the vision while lying on my bed, I saw an observer, a holy angel coming down from heaven. He spoke very loudly and said, ’Cut down the tree and cut off its branches. Strip off its leaves and scatter its fruit. Let the animals under the tree run away, and let the birds in its branches fly away. Daniel 4:10-14 (NCV) I recently took the dogs to one of our regular metro park walking places. The was a moderate breeze blowing as a new weather front was approach...

Your people will rebuild the ancient ruins and will raise up the age-old foundations; you will be called Repairer of Broken Walls, Restorer of Streets with Dwellings. Isaiah 58:12 (NIV) I am the restorer. Bring to me all who are weary. I will restore those who are broken or abused. There is no shame. Bring yourself to me. There are no strings attached. Be my reflection and comfort those who mourn. Feed them the bread of life. Allow them to drink unbridled in my presence. I came that you may have life, that your life be restored into the fullness of what you are called

It is the Lord who created the stars, the Pleiades and Orion. He turns darkness into morning and day into night. He draws up water from the oceans and pours it down as rain on the land. The Lord is his name! Amos 5:8 (NLT) Present yourself to me for you are of great value. I see things not as you see now see them. The price has been paid, Enjoy yourself in my presence. My name is upon you; fear not. Allow me to minister to you. There's no need for fear to live among you. My love encloses you. My eyes are upon you. Learn to rest in the security only I can provide. I am Yahweh, the Lord-of-Hosts. Sink your roots within me. Drink deeply of my water. I am bringing you into a new season. Do not be surprised. New life comes through death. Come closer and look into my eyes. Know my heart. Steven W Bliss

Again I found myself soaring hight above. I could see the craggy mountain tops as I floated and soared about. I see other eagles flying about. They would fly upward, then come down to earth at a tremendous rate of speed with the talons extended. As they arose I would see the dead snake limp as they were taken off to hungry nestlings. Further below I could see the tree-line. I was reminded of two specific things. 1) We need spend time above the tree-line. While there the air is thin, there is also a lack of snakes. 2) We/I need to stretch our wings. It is in the extended flight that we gain strength. They higher we are willing to climb, the wider our vision will become. The more acrrute and deadly we become to the enemy.

Father - Change us into the image of your son. Soften us so we will not crack or shatter. Enfold us with your warm oil. Speak your words of life into each one of us. Let us become so changed that others ask us what has happened, that we can be beacons of light for your kingdom ways. Let healing flow from us as we approach those in need. May the minions of evil flee before us at the sight of Jesus so strong within us. May we walk benath your cloak of humilty so that we become not tainted at what you do throughus. Let the hungry be fed from our hands. That the food we give them continue to multiply as they need it. May their bodies become nourished and satisfied through the drinking of your pure water. May the authority we carry affect those about it, so your ways become second nature even for those who have yet to come to know you. May we speak your truth into the lives of the leadership at all levels of our governments, We declare you as our only leader. We are totally dependent upon y...
