Refiners Fire

Standing outside in the cool rain as I prayed I knew God was moving. God is moving, prayers are reaching his ears like never before. First comes the rain, My blood over the nations, My Holy Spirit striking through the hearts of many. I saw a multitude of intercessors, some experiencing this for the first time. Believers hand in hand in the Spirit, praying along the shores from coast to coast and the standard was raised against the enemy. Then comes the fire. A refining fire, and we will stand through the furnace. From it we rise up on wings like eagles! And I heard the roaring of the great Lion, and saw the Eagle rise up aflame.

It is coming says the Lord, DO NOT DOUBT IT and do not be afraid, Jesus is near.

Stay in the city until you are clothed with the Holy Spirit.

Luke 24:49, Isaiah 59:19, Isaiah 40:31.

Lets welcome our new editor

Hello, I’m Joanna.  I’ve been a born again Christian for 15 years. My crazy sister prayed for my salvation and what I thought was crazy actually was the truth of Jesus. I was at the end of my tether and asked my sister to pray for me and it sounds cliche but the light literally came on. I just new it was all true and- me being me -within an hour I wanted to go out and do miracles! For the first and only time God spoke audibly to me and said, “My child I’m not going to send you out naked!“

 I now understand the meaning of this so well. Because of Jesus my husband is alive and we’re still married ( although he’s not given his life to Christ yet) Because of Jesus we have a beautiful son, because of Jesus I was able to become a nurse. 

I was baptised in 2008 in the river Jordan and have had many amazing testimonies of His faithfulness and grace. I also have testimonies of the suffering and the refiners fire that come with being a disciple of Christ. Sometimes I’ve been holding on by my fingernails convinced I’m finished, not good enough etc. But I am still learning now how to battle in spiritual warfare against the lies of the enemy and how to wear my armour well and daily take up my cross. 

The Christian life is not an easy one, but I would not change one day because I asked God to build my character and yes that’s exactly what he’s doing!

That’s it for now, thanks for taking the time to read. Be blessed.

Administration Post Important News

I have invited the awesome Joanna Millward to join the editing team. She is a fellow church member and parent so can give motherly insights and guidance as only a mother can. It's early days yet. I have asked her to introduce herself to the readership, this will be her first post. She will then give her take on some of my posts hopefully this will add some interest and dynamic to the blog.

On the institutions of men

There are those who claim to be the church but are not.

They have grown in influence and number

They misrepresent me and my interests.

They have joined that institution called the church but they are not members of my body

Do you not know there is power available to you to bring down the might ones those who have gotten influence over my body through corruption and wealth and manouvering

I will say to them, away from me I never knew you.

They seek to undermine the plans of my body,  I shall bring them to ruin

You who govern the church and are not mine I shall lay you to waste

I will frustrate your plans

I will cut off your influence

Those that  know me shall receive from my hand everything they need to advance my church

Those who claim to be church, but are  not, yet hold unmerited influence over the affairs of men shall be brought low.

Even mere babes shall bring you to your knees for in their weakness my strength is made perfect.

Live your life in front of all men

Let your gift of Love speak to all men, corrupt or not, powerful or not.

Allow me to show myself through you

Become less that I might become more

I shall speak to you

I shall guide you

Learn to depend on my Holy Spirit

Seek Him constantly

Let  Him empower you.

Be on your guard for in the last days even the elect shall be fooled

Amen.
