DANCE OF FIRE

I wrote the content on this blog with sincere and holy intentions with the knowledge that I had at the time... We live, learn and amend...as errors are exposed and more truths are revealed...

Only GOD is perfect. It's vital that you seek the Lord to expose any errors that you've embraced. Please ask Him to expose any areas of darkness to you and for what is necessary to do to dispossess what's NOT of truth.

POETRY: DANCE OF FIRE

Flames of fire dance joyfully as dreams of fervor conjure up images of red hot passion for the gusto of life.

Sizzle, spark, explode -

Fireballs light up the sky. Wow! a thunder flash with a clap -

The flames are vivid with the awesome glow of orange colors blended with yellow highlights that accent the blaze.

This display is the bomb torched with a rocket plan. Such rapture has lit our fire. We are dynamite on this journey.

Come on fire, fall on us. Pour your liquid potency. Ignite our souls that we may be engulfed with magnified intensity.

Blow up our hearts. Dance with us....

Sandra

Judging in Perspective

Hi -

Scriptures are from the King James Holy Bible.

Matthew 7:1 - Judge not, that ye be not judged.

Many people, even bonafide sinners, know that scripture. I’ve heard that passage quoted numerous times. In some instances, we’ve heard it quoted by folks who rebel against godly rebuke. Their aim is to misplace the blame on the ones who God has truly sent to give rebukes as judgment against sinful conduct.

It’s certainly wrong to engage in malicious, self-righteous and mean-spirited judging. But the judging issue should be kept in perspective. The Holy Bible has a whole book titled Judges. GOD appointed them.

In the Old and New Testaments, there are accounts of GOD sending His messengers to judge. GOD judges righteously and when He sends His holy messengers, they obediently deliver righteous judgment messages. John the Baptist had his head cut off for judging King Herod!

Some folks prefer to perceive GOD as “warm and fuzzy,” issuing out blessings, forgiveness and mercy. Yes, that is indeed GOD. But He’s a full gospel GOD who also issues punishments for evil deeds and sinful lifestyles.

Here are some scriptural references that prove that righteous judgment is Holy Bible truth:

Isaiah 59:15 - …and the Lord saw it, and it displeased him that there was no judgment.

Proverbs 31:9 - Open thy mouth, judge righteously,…

1 Corinthians 2:15 - But he that is spiritual judgeth all things,…

The Acts 13: 9, 10 - Then Saul, (who is also called Paul,) filled with the Holy Ghost, set his eyes on him And said, O full of all subtlety and all mischief, thou child of the devil thou enemy of all righteousness, wilt thou not cease to pervert the right ways of the Lord?

Note: Verse 9 states that Paul was FILLED WITH THE HOLY GHOST when he issued that flaming rebuke.

Romans 13:4 - But if thou do that which is evil, be afraid; for he beareth not the sword in vain: for he is the minister of God, a revenger to execute wrath upon him that doeth evil.

1 Corinthians 4:21 - What will ye? shall I come unto you with a rod, or in love, and in the spirit of meekness?

Revelation 11:5 - …fire proceedeth out of their mouth,…

Revelation 11:10 - …these two prophets tormented them that dwelt on the earth.

I’ve heard people say that they don’t share truth with others because they don’t want to offend.

    There's a big difference between righteous judgment and condemnation. God does not want us to have a critical spirit, nor does He want us pointing out specks when we have logs in our own eyes. But, He does encourage us to have a spirit of discernment, and a willingness to be used by the Holy Spirit to speak up when necessary.

    May we be open to His leading...

    Have a wonderful Thanksgiving, Sandra!

    GOD BLESS!

    My sister says we are to be "fruit inspectors" - there are many scriptures about sharing the truth in love to help a brother or sister who has stumbled. I was taught before we give a prophesy we should become a weeping prophet - and get God's heart for the person we are sharing with - go humbly and with the right attitude of heart - prayer and fasting beforehand doesn't hurt either. AND sometimes He shows us something so that we will pray and do nothing but pray... HE gives us wisdom. Our part in all is to be obedient, make sure we are listening to the Holy Spirit and not to "kill the wounded" in His Body... with our tongue.... oh, yah....
