I know that you have felt My refining fire upon your life. You have known what it means to be called to holiness and to receive My Holy Spirit fire. Your submission to this process is pleasing to Me, and together we are removing the things that have been holding you back.
When the fire burns away, two things remain – ashes and embers. We are now entering a time where I am stoking the embers. This stoking dislodges/rearranges and leads to more flame. Lean into this process, dear one, for I am working deep within you.
Then, together, we will separate the ashes from the embers. The ash is dead and gone – these are the things that have no place in the future that I have planned for you. The embers are what is pleasing and pure within you, upon which My Spirit rests.
I am reminding you today – do not build upon the ashes, for they will disintegrate and fall away. Instead, build upon the embers; the parts that have been refined, purified and consecrated before Me. For when you build there, the fire will continue to burn – My Holy Spirit fire that acts as a beacon and a gateway to freedom for all who gather there.
Activation: Sit with Holy Spirit and ask Him to show you the ashes that God has burnt away. Take time to release those things, acknowledge any grief you feel around that, and ask the Spirit for peace. Now ask Him to show you the embers – what parts remain that have been purified ready for the next season? Be ready to receive strategy for how to build upon this with Holy Spirit for the new things that God has set apart for you.
For I will bend Judah as My bow,
I will fit the bow with Ephraim [as My arrow].
And I will stir up your sons, O Zion, against your sons, O Greece,
And will make you [Israel] like the sword of a warrior.Zechariah 13:9 (AMP)
26 His voice shook the earth [at Mount Sinai] then, but now He has given a promise, saying, “Yet once more I will shake not only the earth, but also the [starry] heaven.”
27 Now this [expression], “Yet once more,” indicates the removal and final transformation of all those things which can be shaken—that is, of that which has been created—so that those things which cannot be shaken may remain.
28 Therefore, since we receive a kingdom which cannot be shaken, let us show gratitude, and offer to God pleasing service and acceptable worship with reverence and awe;
29 for our God is [indeed] a consuming fire.
Hebrews 12:26-29 (AMP)
