The Warmth of God (13.10.12)

“The warmth of God does not vary with the seasons of the earth,

                                   does not vary with the lands of man,

                                   does vary with the seasons of man,

                                   does vary quite remarkably with the localities of man.

The warmth of God is not heated by the candles of The Lord,

                                 is not chilled by an expanse of ice.

The warmth of God is heated by The Spirit’s fire,

                                                by the strength of faith spearheading an enabled move of God,

                                                by the waving of My banner seen in welcome,

                                                by the purity achieved by the saints of God in preparing to become The Bride of Christ.

The warmth of God increases with the edifice of God,

                                 increases with the passage of the time of man,

                                 increases with the growth in prayer,

                                 increases with the presenting of a King unto His waiting citizens.

The warmth of God is heated quite dramatically by the presence of His fire at large upon the earth,

                                                                                                     at large upon His people,

                                                                                                                         at large on His banners of proclamation and of presence,

                                                                                                                         at large on His flags of office and of bearing,

                                                                                                                         at large on His standards claiming and possessing.

The warmth of God becomes the fire of God.

The fire of God envelops families,

                          envelops communities,

                          envelops cities,

                          envelops landscapes,

                          envelops lands,

                          envelops shorelines to set foot upon the seas.

The fire of God becomes a conflagration as a firestorm in the making which in surrounding man leaves him reduced to purity,

                                                                                                                                                           leaves him with a changed intent,

                                                                                                                                                           leaves him with a new perspective,

                                                                                                                                                           leaves him upon his knees,

                                                                                                                                                           leaves him with a tongue of praise,

                                                                                                                                                           leaves him with a mouth made holy.

The fire of God consumes the sin of man,

                          rejects the man in whom sin does not burn unto completion,

                          rejects the man who dives into the water in an attempt to quench the fire of heaven.

The warmth of God rockets up in temperature until the ignition point is reached –

                    where man either stands in purity before the heavens or falls in his ashes on the earth.

The warmth of God achieves the flash point of the refining fire,

                                 leaves the dross behind as scum upon the earth;

                                 raises up in strength the refined of The Lord:

                                                        where the gold in purity is clear to gleam upon the surface –

                                                                         thereby preserving the key to righteousness right into the very depths.

Beware the fire of God well beyond its flashpoint of ignition:

                                    in refining mode where sin cannot prevail and man shall bow in holy fear.”
