the FireCarrier

Don’t allow the enemy to steal your joy. Focus your vision upon me. Walk in the pathway I’ve set for you. Look to me.

They brought the boy to Him. When he saw Him, immediately the spirit threw him into a convulsion, and falling to the ground, he began rolling around and foaming at the mouth. And He asked his father, How long has this been happening to him? And he said, “From childhood It has often thrown him both into the fire and into the water to destroy him. But if You can do anything, take pity on us and help us!” And Jesus said to him, If You can? All things are possible to him who believes. Immediately the boy’s father cried out and said, “I do believe; help my unbelief.” When Jesus saw that a crowd was rapidly gathering, He rebuked the unclean spirit, saying to it, “You deaf and mute spirit, I command you, come out of him and do not enter him again. After crying out and throwing him into terrible convulsions, it came out; and the boy became so much like a corpse that most of them said, He is dead! But Jesus took him by the hand and raised him; and he got up. When He came into the house, His dis

Don’t allow the chatter to distract you from what is important. Toss aside that which distracts you from me. Focus upon what show to you. Allow it to ground and guide you. Allow it to grow, Call out to me. I will answer. I have not gone.

When you ask, do you believe I will provide? Come boldly to me, believing. Push passed what the world says and watch me. Come to my table and learn my heart. Take in my ways so you can pass them onto another. Don’t be fearful, but believe my truths and act upon them.

Moses continued, “Then the Lord said, ‘Now get moving! Cross the Arnon Gorge. Look, I will hand over to you Sihon the Amorite, king of Heshbon, and I will give you his land. Attack him and begin to occupy the land.” Deuteronomy 2:24 (NLT) And let the peace that comes from Christ rule in your hearts. For as members of one body you are called to live in peace. And always be thankful. Colossians 3:15 (NLT)

I am ever-present, ever with you. My breath is responsible for all things created, those known and yet unknown to you. You were created with a purpose. Listen for my voice and calling. I will direct you, providing both protection and direction. Learn my heart, let it guide you, so you might demonstrate my ways to others. Do not waver but stand firm for the I AM is with you.

Fear not, but turn your eyes to me. There is nothing I can not accomplish. Trust in me and my ways. Keep your eyes upon me and you will realize the supernatural is mine. You will experience the love I have. Trust in me. Allow me to guide you in my peace.

You didn’t choose me. I chose you. I appointed you to go and produce lasting fruit, so that the Father will give you whatever you ask for, using my name. John 15:16 (NLT) I waited patiently for the Lord to help me, and he turned to me and heard my cry. He lifted me out of the pit of despair, out of the mud and the mire. He set my feet on solid ground and steadied me as I walked along. He has given me a new song to sing, a hymn of praise to our God. Many will see what he has done and be amazed. They will put their trust in the Lord. ‭‭Psalms‬ ‭40:1-3‬ ‭(NLT‬‬)

He reveals deep and mysterious things and knows what lies hidden in darkness, though he is surrounded by light. ‭‭Daniel‬ ‭2:22‬ ‭(NLT)‬‬ Speak to the situation. Do not allow it to guide your feelings. Allow my words to plant their seeds of life. Receive my revelation in truth.

What catches your appetite? What is it That draws you into my ways? It is my Spirit, the paraclete. He will lead you into the truth, but you must respond. He will show you the way set before you. Are you ready to move forward?

Sit with me. Invite me into the quiet place of your life. Don’t be afraid. Just block out the busyness and become pliable Shhh. Soak in the solitude of silence. Set aside the sounds of your internal busyness. Listen for me. Invite me to be closer in you. I will wash away the stains of life and allow my light to bring healing. I will look upon you and smile.

Then Jesus asked them, Would anyone light a lamp and then put it under a basket or under a bed? Of course not! A lamp is placed on a stand, where its light will shine. For everything that is hidden will eventually be brought into the open, and every secret will be brought to light. Anyone with ears to hear should listen and understand. ‭‭Mark‬ ‭4:21-23‬ ‭(NLT)

  Then he added, “Pay close attention to what you hear. The closer you listen, the more understanding you will be given— and you will receive even more. To those who listen to my teaching, more understanding will be given. But for those who are not listening, even what little understanding they have will be taken away from them.”” Mark 4:24-25 (NLT)

Seek me and you will find me. I am there with you, guiding your journey. My light leads the way. Seek my heart. I am the truth. Do not be rushed, but linger where I am.

Then he hung the curtains forming the courtyard around the Tabernacle and the altar. And he set up the curtain at the entrance of the courtyard. So at last Moses finished the work. Then the cloud covered the Tabernacle, and the glory of the Lord filled the Tabernacle. Moses could no longer enter the Tabernacle because the cloud had settled down over it, and the glory of the Lord filled the Tabernacle. Exodus 40:33-35 (NLT) Watch. I AM showing myself to you. How will you react? Notice the cycles within nature. Do you suppose they surprise me? I AM your creator-God. I exist outside of time, guiding and guarding those who are mine. Learn my ways and be secure in me. Be a reflection of my heart to those who see you.

In those days when you pray, I will listen. If you look for me wholeheartedly, you will find me. I will be found by you, says the Lord. I will end your captivity and restore your fortunes. I will gather you out of the nations where I sent you and will bring you home again to your own land. Jeremiah 29:12-14 (NLT) Learn my ways. Within them is life. Be washed in the water of my Word. Let it draw you into full truth. Grow to recognize my leading however it leads you.

  Do not hesitate. Come back and continue what I’ve set out for you. Do not fear. Draw near and allow my healing to engulf you. Experience the love I hold for you. Share it with others. You are my creation. Listen for me as I whisper your name. I have not forgotten the plans created for you. Are you ready?

You are to set the Bread of the Presence on the table before me continually. Exodus 25:30 (NET) Be careful what you reach out for. Learn my heart, let it guide you In your time upon the earth.

The Lord of Heaven’s Armies has spoken— who can change his plans? When his hand is raised, who can stop him? Isaiah 14:27 (NLT)

He replied, “I have been very zealous for the Lord God Almighty. The Israelites have rejected your covenant, torn down your altars, and put your prophets to death with the sword. I am the only one left, and now they are trying to kill me too.” The Lord said, “Go out and stand on the mountain in the presence of the Lord, for the Lord is about to pass by.” Then a great and powerful wind tore the mountains apart and shattered the rocks before the Lord, but the Lord was not in the wind. After the wind there was an earthquake, but the Lord was not in the earthquake. After the earthquake came a fire, but the Lord was not in the fire. And after the fire came a gentle whisper. When Elijah heard it, he pulled his cloak over his face and went out and stood at the mouth of the cave. Then a voice said to him, “What are you doing here, Elijah?”” 1 Kings 19:9-13 (NIV) Keep alert. Direct your focus upon me. I will guide you in the way you should go. I am your protector. Do not react in anger or fear,

Awaken to my love. Follow the direction I give to you. Go with expectations of my presence. Don’t be timid, but hold in the way I have for you. You are unique, fully covered and clothed in Me. Call upon my name and see me answer.

The Lord then gave these instructions to Moses: Tell the people of Israel: ‘Be careful to keep my Sabbath day, for the Sabbath is a sign of the covenant between me and you from generation to generation. It is given so you may know that I am the Lord, who makes you holy. Exodus 31:12-13 (NLT)

Jesus replied, “I am the bread of life. Whoever comes to me will never be hungry again. Whoever believes in me will never be thirsty.” ‭‭John‬ ‭6:35‬ ‭(NLT)‬‬ I am the bread of life. Raise the flag. Fresh bread is available. Savor my Word; let it satisfy your heart. Allow the aroma to fill you. Spend time in my presence. Allow me and my ways to instruct you to be filled with what matters .

I have brought you out of the old ways and into my light. I have shown you my thoughts, shared dreams and taken you places. I have not changed. My heart remains to direct you. Accept my love, as I have more for you. Refresh in me, so you may by ready for battle. Once again you will fly among my eagles .

Moses said to the Lord, “You have been telling me, ‘Lead these people,’ but you have not let me know whom you will send with me. You have said, ‘I know you by name and you have found favor with me.’ If you are pleased with me, teach me your ways so I may know you and continue to find favor with you. Remember that this nation is your people.” The Lord replied, “My Presence will go with you, and I will give you rest.” Then Moses said to him, “If your Presence does not go with us, do not send us up from here. How will anyone know that you are pleased with me and with your people unless you go with us? What else will distinguish me and your people from all the other people on the face of the earth?” And the Lord said to Moses, “I will do the very thing you have asked, because  I am pleased with you and I know you by name.” Then Moses said, “Now show me your glory.” And the Lord said, “I will cause all my goodness to pass in front of you, and I will proclaim my name, the Lord, in your prese

Moses said to the Lord, “You have been telling me, ‘Lead these people,’ but you have not let me know whom you will send with me. You have said, ‘I know you by name and you have found favor with me.’ If you are pleased with me, teach me your ways so I may know you and continue to find favor with you. Remember that this nation is your people.” The Lord replied, “My Presence will go with you, and I will give you rest.” Then Moses said to him, “If your Presence does not go with us, do not send us up from here.

When the Son of Man comes in his glory and all the angels with him, then he will sit on his glorious throne. All the nations will be assembled before him, and he will separate people one from another like a shepherd separates the sheep from the goats. He will put the sheep on his right and the goats on his left. Then the king will say to those on his right, Come, you who are blessed by my Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world. For I was hungry, and you gave me food, I was thirsty and you gave me something to drink, I was a stranger and you invited me in, I was naked and you gave me clothing, I was sick and you took care of me, I was in prison and you visited me. ‭‭Matthew‬ ‭25:31-36‬ (‭NET)

For the recent 10:20s which have crossed my knowing pathway. Thank you for the reminder. You must fear the Lord your God and worship him and cling to him. Your oaths must be in his name alone. ‭‭Deuteronomy‬ ‭10:20‬ ‭(NLT‬‬)

Declare my truth. Let my truth be seen through you actions. Walk in the certainty of my way. Share the seed of my Word. Despite what you feel, you are to love one another. Share what you have received. My healing will flow from you to those in need. Reach out. Let your actions declare my name.

  Watch for me and you will find me. See beyond the tree line and I AM there.           I AM Releasing my ways to those who will Honor me, being my reflection,           I AM The way and truth. I dispel the enemy’s lies and distraction. I AM what you are seeking.

Honor the Lord, you heavenly beings; honor the Lord for his glory and strength. Honor the Lord for the glory of his name. Worship the Lord in the splendor of his holiness. The voice of the Lord echoes above the sea. The God of glory thunders. The Lord thunders over the mighty sea. The voice of the Lord is powerful; the voice of the Lord is majestic. The voice of the Lord splits the mighty cedars;      the Lord shatters the cedars of Lebanon. He makes Lebanon’s mountains skip like a calf;      he makes Mount Hermon leap like a young wild ox. The voice of the Lord strikes with bolts of lightning. The voice of the Lord makes the barren wilderness quake; the Lord shakes the wilderness of Kadesh. The voice of the Lord twists mighty oaks and strips the forests bare. In his Temple everyone shouts, “Glory!” The Lord rules over the floodwaters. The Lord reigns as king forever. The Lord gives his people strength. The Lord blesses them with peace. Psalms 29:1-11 (NLT)

Search for me and I will be found. Look for the breath of my Spirit as He moves across the face of creation. He guides those who listen, those who are responsive to his moving. Cast aside the fear the enemy holds before you. He wishes to take your vision from me to the waves Crashing toward you. I am your sustainer of life. I AM here to guide you.

  Don’t lose your vision. Stay focused upon me. Watch for my eyes as they guide you. Listen for my whispering your name. I hide myself so you might find me and what I have for you.

On the morning of the third day there were thunders and lightnings and a thick cloud on the mountain and a very loud trumpet blast, so that all the people in the camp trembled. Then Moses brought the people out of the camp to meet God, and they took their stand at the foot of the mountain. Now Mount Sinai was wrapped in smoke because the Lord had descended on it in fire. The smoke of it went up like the smoke of a kiln, and the whole mountain trembled greatly. And as the sound of the trumpet grew louder and louder, Moses spoke, and God answered him in thunder. The Lord came down on Mount Sinai, to the top of the mountain. And the Lord called Moses to the top of the mountain, and Moses went up. ‭‭Exodus‬ ‭19:16-20‬ ‭(ESV‬‬)

Long ago the Lord said to Israel: “I have loved you, my people, with an everlasting love. With unfailing love I have drawn you to myself.” Jeremiah 31:3 (NLT) As you look out the window of your mind, what is it you think you see? What have your eyes focused upon? I AM here. Allow me to guide you each day.

Align your ways and thoughts with me. Don’t fear. Trust in me. I am your protector. Seek my heart, respond in the compassion I have for you. Share it with others. Weigh your steps in alignment with me. Don’t follow the pathway the enemy has set. Continue to seek my heart that you might grow in wisdom.

Then Moses led Israel to journey away from the Red Sea. They went out to the Desert of Shur, walked for three days into the desert, and found no water. Then they came to Marah, but they were not able to drink the waters of Marah, because they were bitter. (That is why its name was Marah.) So the people murmured against Moses, saying, What can we drink? He cried out to the Lord, and the Lord showed him a tree. When Moses threw it into the water, the water became safe to drink. There the Lord made for them a binding ordinance, and there he tested them. He said, If you will diligently obey the Lord your God, and do what is right in his sight, and pay attention to his commandments, and keep all his statutes, then all the diseases that I brought on the Egyptians I will not bring on you, for I, the Lord, am your healer. Exodus 15:22-26 (NET) His mother told the servants, “Whatever he tells you, do it.” Now there were six stone water jars there for Jewish ceremonial washing, each holding twen

What are you holding onto? Whose words and stories are you believing? Step closer in Me. Believe what I have spoken to you. Walk in the authority I have placed upon you.
