FIRE BY NIGHT
"Reflections Upon Reflections" [of The Father's Heart]
...."You, in Your great compassion, did not forsake them in the wilderness; The pillar of
cloud did not leave them by day, to guide them on their way, or the pillar of fire by night, to light
for them the way in which they were to go".... Nehemiah 9:19 NASB
January 27th
PERFECT LIBERTY SHALL ABOUND
Words of Prophecy:
*
In light of the "finished work" of My Dear Son there is NO need for one to
fear.
...."I sought the LORD, and He answered me, and delivered me from all my
fears. They looked to Him and were radiant, and their faces will never be
ashamed".... Psalms 34:4-5 NASB
...."For God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love,
and of a sound mind".... 2 Timothy 1:7 KJV
Human [self-serving] "love" gratifies the soul [mind, will and emotions]
whereas the Father's perfect Love edifies [strengthens] the spirit [inner man]
which, in turn, [when kept in a position of dominance {ascendency, authority}]
renews [restores] the soul [mind, will and emotions]. Therefore, it is only a heart
that is "wholly given" [a heart that is seeking after the Father and His Will
[Word] with every fiber of its being] that will open their heart-door to receive and
appropriate the reality of His TRUE Nature and Character - and, in the process [of
believing and trusting], every last bit of ground that would seek after less than His
Perfect Love will be removed [expelled].
Many of God's children set their sights [focus] far too low in this matter of
"Love" and, thus, they both seek after and settle for the "counterfeit". In this hour,
as the Father's Love is poured forth to the greatest degree since Pentecost,
multitudes shall awaken and they will be given eyes to see the reality of both His
Love [for them] and His Kingdom - and, thus, perfect liberty [superabundant
Grace] will "abound" in the midst of all those who had previously placed "flesh
and blood" before Him.
...."the love of God has been poured out within our hearts through the Holy
Spirit who was given to us".... Romans 5:5 NASB
...."The LORD is my shepherd, I shall not want. He makes me lie down in
green pastures; He leads me beside quiet waters. He restores my soul; He guides
me in the paths of righteousness For His name's sake. Even though I walk through
the valley of the shadow of death, I fear no evil, for You are with me; Your rod and
Your staff, they comfort me. You prepare a table before me in the presence of my
enemies; You have anointed my head with oil; My cup overflows. Surely goodness
and lovingkindness will follow me all the days of my life, and I will dwell in the
house of the LORD forever".... Psalms 23:1-6 NASB
...."Love endures long and is patient and kind; love never is envious nor
boils over with jealousy, is not boastful or vainglorious, does not display itself
haughtily. It is not conceited [arrogant and inflated with pride]; it is not rude
[unmannerly] and does not act unbecomingly. Love [God's love in us] does not
insist on its own rights or its own way, for it is not self-seeking; it is not touchy or
fretful or resentful; it takes no account of the evil done to it [it pays no attention to
a suffered wrong]. It does not rejoice at injustice and unrighteousness, but
rejoices when right and truth prevail. Love bears up under anything and
everything that comes, is ever ready to believe the best of every person, its hopes
are fadeless under all circumstances, and it endures everything [without
weakening]. Love never fails [never fades out or becomes obsolete or comes to an
end]".... 1 Corinthians 13:4-8a The Amplified Translation
Prayer of Proclamation:
Father, we thank You and praise You that You are revealing Yourself to us
in ways that You have never been able to - UP UNTIL THIS TIME. We set
ourselves to know You as we have never been able to know You before - because
of our unbelief, and the settling for that which is less than Your "best" for us that
kept us in a degree of darkness. We thank You and praise You that EVERY barrier
in our lives is now being broken down by the power of Your Holy Spirit [Who is
the Spirit of Love] and, in the process we proclaim that every last ground of fear
and unbelief within us is both exposed and consumed with a view to us entering in
to the place of "abiding" in perfect liberty [through an absolute faith and trust in
You] - and we declare it done, in the Name of Jesus.
