Dear Larry,
Welcome to OH. Quite a dream you were given brother.
Luke 3:16 John answered them all by saing, I baptize you with water; but He Who is mightier than I is coming, the strap of Whose sandals I am not fit to unfasten. He will baptize you with the Holy Spirit AND WITH FIRE.
Heb 12:20 For our God IS a consuming FIRE.
SS 8:6 Set me like a seal upon your heart, like a seal upon your arm; for LOVE is as strong as death, jealousy is as hard and cruel as Sheol. Its flashes are flashes OF FIRE, a most vehement FLAME [the VERY FLAME OF THE LORD]!
Jer 23:29 Is not my WORD like FIRE [that consumes all that cannot endure the test]? says the Lord, and like a hammer that breaks in pieces the rock [of most stubborn resistance]?
Mal 3:2 For He is like a refiner's FIRE and like fuller's soap; 3 He will sit as a refiner and purifier of silver, and He will purify the priests, the sons of Levi, and refine them like gold and silver, that they may offer to the Lord offerings in righteousness. 4 THEN will the offering of Judah and Jerusalem be pleasing to the Lord as in the days of old and as in ancient years. 5 THEN I will draw near to you for judgment; I will be a swift witness against the sorceres, against the adulterers, against the false swearers, and against those who oppress the hireling in his wages, the widow and the fatherless, and who turn aside the temporary resident from his right and fear not Me, says the Lord of hosts 6 For I AM the LORD, I DO NOT CHANGE; that is why you, o sons of Jacob, are not consumed.
Matt 3:12 But the chaff He will burn up with fire.
HAVE YOUR WAY IN ME TODAY JESUS! BURN UP THE CHAFF WITHIN ME. I SUBMIT TO YOUR FIRE! BURN WITHIN ME YOUR MOST HOLY FLAME OF LOVE! I TRUST YOUR LOVE! I TRUST YOUR FIRE! YOU ARE THE ONLY RIGHTEOUS AND WISE JUDGE! THOUGH I GO THROUGH THE FIRE, I WILL NOT BE BURNT. BURN EVERYTHING WITHIN THAT HINDERS LOVE SO THAT YOU WILL BURN BRIGHTLY THROUGH ME!
------------------------------------------------------------ ------------
When you receive a baptism of fire, you will know it. You will be ruined. There is a process of death and then resurrection life comes. 10 years ago in September, I received this baptism (twenty years after the baptism of the Spirit). 10 years after the baptism of fire, I have experienced another rebirth.
It IS a consuming fire as it will burn up the desire within for anything other than what pleases the Lord. And you will be consumed with a desire for MORE of HIM. Nothing else satisfies. At least for me, it was hard at times to function in the natural world and to understand how to live in this world. But in time (and behaps this is different for all of us - the measure of time in the process), the understanding increases as the intimacy increases and the purpose for our existence here is made clearer.
And it is possible after receiving a baptism of fire for love to grow cold. You will know this too. But if you cry out to the Lord in repentence and ask Him to reveal your heart and sin, He will answer and HE will light the fire again and he will cause a resurrection in your life and make ALL THINGS NEW AGAIN. AND HE WILL RESTORE ALL THAT WAS LOST!
BECAUSE WE SERVE A LIVING AND LOVING GOD THAT DOES NOT WISH FOR ANY TO PERISH BUT FOR ALL TO COME TO A SAVING KNOWLEDGE OF HIM!
GUARD YOUR HEARTS AGAINST COLD LOVE. FOR IN THE LAST DAYS, THE LOVE OF MANY SHALL GROW COLD.
REMOVE YOURSELVES FROM THAT WHICH THE LORD REVEALS TO YOU IS CAUSING YOUR HEARTS TO TURN TO STONE. THIS IS COLD LOVE. THIS IS THE ENEMY.
AGAPE LOVE IS A MOST VEHEMENT FLAME. SUBMIT TO THE FLAME OF GOD! IT IS SAFE!
FALL ON THE ROCK LEST THE ROCK FALLS ON YOU.
JESUS WE LOVE YOU! WE WANT TO TAKE YOUR LOVE TO THOSE WHO SEEK YOU BUT DO NOT YET KNOW YOU. MAY WE BE FOUND WORTHY VESSELS OF YOUR GLORY.
SET US ABLAZE THAT WE MAY SNATCH OTHERS FROM THE FIRE OF SHEOL.
