God's Companionship and Deliverance While Going Through the Fire and the Flood

 

I have cut off the ungodly and given the wealth of the sinner to you. I prepared you a way and sent you to a place of refuge. In this house of refuge, you have life. Ponder not the mystery of this grace unto you, but simply believe. As I made a way for the lightning of the thunder, so has a decree been made for you. Grace has always been yours even in your times of serious inquiry. You have inquired of me and answered, "How can these things be?"

Where were you when I laid the foundations of the earth?

Do you have understanding?

Who laid the measures thereof, if you know?

Or who has stretched the line upon it?

Whereupon are the foundations thereof fastened?

Or who laid the corner stone, thereof, when the morning stars sang together and all the sons of God shouted for joy?

Or who shut up the sea with doors when it brake forth as if it had issued out of the womb?

I made the clouds the garments, thereof, and thick darkness a swaddling-band for it, brake up for it my decreed place, set bars and doors and said, "Hitherto shall you come, but no further and here shall your proud waves be stayed?"

Have the gates of death been opened unto you?

Or have you seen the doors of the shadow of death?

Give your ear to me and my law. Incline your ears to the words of my mouth today. I will open my mouth and speak plain. I will make clear the dark sayings of old and will not hide them from you. I am furnishing you with a table in the wilderness of impossibility. In the place where many have tempted me and received the meat of lust and covetousness, I am causing the rock of impossibility to furnish you with fresh waters and fresh streams. I am giving you the bread of deliverance instead of the fire of my anger.

I have commanded the clouds of discouragement and opened unto you the doors of encouragement. I have rained down Rhema for you to eat and given you the corn of spiritual preservation. You are eating angel's food. Be content with this food for angels. Allow its freshness and completeness to fill you instead of your own desires. I have not left you in the land of lust and pride. I have cleaned your mouth of the meat of spiritual death and given you a mouth filled with the fresh word of God. Remember that I am your rock and the high God, your redeemer. Speak a word in due season, for the word of life is in your mouth. I am full of compassion. I have forgiven your iniquities. I did not destroy you when you sinned, but I turned my anger away from you and did not stir up my wrath. I know that you are but flesh; therefore, I have granted you compassion, for I know that you are a wind that passes away and does not come again.

There is a way that seems right unto a man, but the ends, thereof, are the ways of death. You ended up in a wilderness and a solitary place. You came to the deserts of spiritual debris. I have made all these places to blossom abundantly and rejoice with joy and singing. I have given these places the glory of the Lord and my excellency. Now shall people see the glory of the Lord and the excellency of your God.

I have placed a highway in your midst, a way that is called the way of holiness. The unclean shall not pass over this way, but this way is for the wayfaring men seeking refuge from lions and ravenous beasts. The wayfaring of the hour have become the redeemed, and they are walking on the highway of holiness. The ransomed of the Lord are returning and coming to Zion with songs and everlasting joy upon their heads. They are obtaining joy and gladness. Sorrow and sighing are fleeing away. I have created you in righteousness. I formed you from the womb. I have begotten you again by a lively hope and called you by name. You are mine. Now when you pass through the waters, I will be with you. When you pass through the rivers, they shall not overflow you. When you walk through the fire, you will not be burned, and the flames will not kindle you.

I am the Lord your God, the Holy One of Israel, your Savior. Fear not, for I am with you. I have created you for my glory. You are called by my name. You are my witnesses. You know, and you believe me. You understand that I am he, and before me, there was no God formed, neither shall there be after me. I, even I, am the Lord, and beside me there is no savior. I am the Lord, your Holy One, the creator of Israel, their King and your King. I have made a way in the sea and a path in the mighty waters, which brings forth the chariot and the horse, the army and the power, the rockets and the bombs. I shall cause all of the artillery of the enemy to fall down and not rise up against you. I shall make the enemy's power against you ineffective and quench his fire of wrath with the water of my word.

Remember, I am the God of old. I will do for you what I did in former times. I do a new thing for you. It is springing forth now. You shall know it. It is making a way in this wilderness. It is making rivers in your desert of helplessness. There is no temptation that has taken you but such as is common to you. I am faithful and will not suffer you to be tempted above that you are able but with the temptation also make a way for you to escape that you may be able to bear it; therefore, rejoice. A way is made for you.

 

 

Amos 3: 7 - 8

Surely the Lord GOD will do nothing, but he revealeth his secret unto his servants the prophets. The lion hath roared, who will not fear? The Lord GOD hath spoken, who can but prophesy?
