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

MERCY

Words of Prophecy:

*	It is NOT too late for one of My children to enter into the "fullness" of their Kingdom-position and destiny [regardless of past sins] IF they will turn around [repent], forsaking ALL control over their own lives, and give their heart "wholly" to Me. For I am a God of extraordinary patience and mercy - a loving Father Who is both willing and well-able to restore ANY "time" that was lost and, also, re-
establish [and bring to pass] the "true desires" of one's heart that were stolen from them by the Evil One over the years. The hour is late, and the call to holiness and proper positioning [both spiritually and "physically" {locationally}] is going forth with great clarity from My Throne Room. NOW is the time for all those who have pursued a different path from the one that I have planned for them to draw near to Me in the "inner chamber" [the secret place of My Presence]. For, in doing so, it is certain that I will draw near to them [in a very personal way] and make ALL things evident to their heart concerning any "adjustments" they need to make in this most critical hour.

"adjustment" - adaptation to a particular condition, position, or purpose; the act of bringing something into conformity [agreement] with external requirements; harmony [divine order] achieved by modification or change of a position;

..."Draw near to God and He will draw near to you. Cleanse your hands, you sinners; and purify your hearts, you double-minded".... James 4:8 NASB

...."you will seek Me, inquire for, and require Me [as a vital necessity] and find Me when you search for Me with all your heart. [Deut. 4:29-30.] I will be found by you, says the Lord".... Jeremiah 29:13-14a The Amplified Translation

...."Therefore being justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ: By whom also we have access by faith into this Grace wherein we stand, and rejoice in hope of the glory of God".... Romans 5:1-2 KJV

THEREFORE

...."Let us draw near with confidence to the throne of Grace, so that we may receive mercy and find [access, appropriate] Grace to help in time of need".... Hebrews 4:16 NASB

Mercy needs simply to be asked for. As one acknowledges their need for mercy and forgiveness [judging themselves in the light of the Word of God] the mercy of God comes forth immediately - and, at the same time, the precious Blood cleanses us from all unrighteousness [regardless of how we may still "feel"]. This effectively shuts out the Enemy and allows the Holy Spirit to minister to us whatever revelation needs to be ministered that we might move on from our present circumstances into the next phase of our walk with the Father and Jesus.

...."O give thanks unto the LORD; for [he is] good: for his mercy [endureth] for ever".... Psalms 136:1 KJV

...."If we confess our sins, He is faithful and righteous to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from ALL unrighteousness".... 1 John 1:9 NASB

Prayer of Proclamation:

Father, we thank You and praise You that You are Mercy, Personified! We thank You and praise You that You have made a way for us, through the precious Blood of Jesus, to come boldly before You in our deepest time of need to receive the mercy and Grace that will set us right back on the perfect course [path]. You have prepared for us from before the foundations of the earth. And we declare ALL of these things DONE, in Jesus' Name. Amen.

...."For we are God's [own] handiwork [His workmanship], recreated in Christ Jesus, [born anew] that we may do those good works which God predestined [planned beforehand] for us [taking paths which He prepared ahead of time], that we should walk in them [living the good life which He prearranged and made ready for us to live]".... Ephesians 2:10 The Amplified Translation
