Holy Fire

Without the fire we’ll never fly to the heart of heaven… Flames flicker Jumping through the darkness Unafraid To send sparks into the darkness. This fire, meant to refine, Can be painful sometimes But only at the first touch. Once t he flames consume the dross… Lay it all down for the heart of heaven… …It no longer hurts. Instead, it empowers. Only a life flamed by fire Is a life worth living. After all…only hot or cold, Never lukewarm. A Holy Fire is the only one That does not destroy. This fire brings joy everlasting. *This poem was written by inspiration from Jason Upton's song Burning in the Sky.   The words in italics are his lyrics, not my words!*

Hezekiah: Don't be selfish with blessings

Image
Yeah, if you’re saying “who?” I won’t hold it against you, since when God first put his name into my head, all I knew was that he was one of the many kings in the Old Testament, and that’s about it. But so you know, Hezekiah’s story is told in 2 Kings 18-21, 2 Chronicles 29-32, and Isaiah 36-39. He was a king in Judah for 29 years, beginning at the age of 25.

Hezekiah was still floating around in my brain. So as I prayed about what God wanted me to learn from this king, I finally got some answers and I’d like to shar...

The Church in Acts: Part 3

Image
Now for Part 3 of what I learned about the early church while reading Acts. They knew they had the truth and made sure it got out They were bold about the truth. They knew it had to be told, and that it was truth! They let no one quiet them. Because of this, people accused them of being crazy. Because of this, they were expelled from places...and made a lot of people angry. But, they obeyed the Lord and His word, even when it was something that seemed dangerous, they didn't get why, or they didn't want to. They went through trials because of their commitment to God They were put in prison countless times. They were beaten. They were stoned. They were thought to be gods and had to dissuade the people that no, their only "power" was that of God working through them (Acts 14:11+)! Some might not see that as a trial, but...I'm sure that also tested them! They were set before council, to which they replied "We ought to obey God rathe...
