TURN UP THE FIRE

April 9, 2008

Malachi 3:2-3

But who endure the day of His coming? Who can stand when He appears? For He will be like a refiner's fire or a launderer's soap. He will sit as a refiner and purifier of silver; He will purify the Levites and refine them like gold and silver.

In the Spirit I heard, "Turn up the fire, it's smoldering." When I looked there was some kind of metal perhaps gold glowing and it was surrounded by ashes. My thoughts are turned towards Isaiah 61:3 .... to bestow on them a crown of beauty instead of ashes, the oil of gladness instead of mourning, and a garment of praise instead of a spirit of despair. "Turn the heat up, it's about to get hot in here," as I see the blaze begin to rise over what's in the midst of the fire. "It's My people," says the Lord, "and I am refining them for My glory, for many shall walk as the glory resides upon them as the dross filters away of what is left of them. I will do a new thing in the earth that mankind will hearken unto the call of the Spirit. Nay, I say, you will not enter unless you have been cleansed and renewed in the Refiner's soap. For My glory shall contain particles of silver dust that will illuminate the earth and they shall be sprinkled upon nations." I hear the nations saying, "what is this?"

"I will increase the fire until those who are called, will glow of My glory as Moses face shone in the wildness before Israel. These are the days My glory shall appear as never before and only those who can stand the fire shall smolder with the glory of God. Be renewed and walk in what I have for you, says the Lord. Let me turn the heat up and see the glory dust appear in your homes, school, jobs, nursing homes, factories, millions of houses will be affected by the glory of God. I will do a new thing, not like of old, for this is a new season for those who are called to the rafters to meet with God. Will you stand in that day and be refined for My glory? Will you stand, I say? Behold I stand at the door and knock." ~Jesus is standing at the door as it opens, he throws some glitter through the door.~ "My dust shall appear on those not even in ministry says the Lord, for it is for a people who would stand the fire of the secret place in My home."

The Sovereign Lord has given me an instructed tongue, to know the word that sustains the weary. He wakens me morning by morning, wakens my ear to listen like one being taught. Let he who has an ear, hear what the Spirit says....

Before I could release God's message for today, I found myself immersed in the Refiner's fire. I heard the Spirit say, "Burn" and the Lord said, "Will you wait?"
It was very uncomfortable as I began to 'smolder' in the fire for a while,and God was showing me that many who would read this message would share in this same experience. I had a vision of myself passing out and laying on the ground. It seemed as if I died. However, people who I realize now were actually angels came to me and cut me down the middle and began to stuff me with what I understand to be the glory of God. They embalmed with the glory. As they zipped me up, I arose in a suit of glory and my suit glowed with illumination as though it was radioactive.

My prayer for you is that the Refiner would come and you would wait in the Refiner's fire and be filled with His glory. I have been given the understanding this fire is going to be a process and He will come and you will have to soak in the fire. How long will it take, I do not know, but you must wait in it each time the Lord comes. The Lord said "to share this message with those whom you know are crying out for God's glory and are crying out to be carriers of the glory."

Be Blessed as you soak in the Refiner's fire.
