Burning Coals of Fire

As for the likeness of the living creatures, their appearance was like burning coals of fire .... Ezekiel 1:13

Wilderness journey may seem alone to many but in this journey the water of life refreshes the soul that hunger and thirsts after righteousness!

living creatures, like burning coals of fire

"CHERUBIM, the principle thoughts and imaginations of man's mind!

... and above it were the cherubim of glory overshadowing the mercy seat. Of these things we cannot now speak in detail. Hebrews 9:5

Back then the writer to Hebrews could not speak in details these cherubim of glory that over shadow the mercy seat. Today however, the Holy Spirit wants us to know who these cherubim of glory are, for in union with the glory of Him they dwell.

For as he thinketh in his heart, so is he: ... Proverbs 23:7

My soul tries to tell me I am but a flesh man, but the Word of life shows me I am but a son of God!

And when they went, I heard the noise of their wings, like the noise of great waters, as the voice of the Almighty, the voice of speech, as the noise of an host: when they stood, they let down their wings. ... And the sound of the cherubims' wings was heard even to the outer court, as the voice of the Almighty God when he speaketh. (Ezekiel 1:24;10:5)

Yet to this day they in the holy place and them in the outer court as yet to have heard His voice. Only them that dwell overshadowing the mercy seat (Most Holy Place).

Not the first time Father has spoken to my heart concerning them that overshadow the mercy seat. It is time for them to speak His Word of life to them that hear only the voice of the soulish man! The cherubim that guard the way to the tree of life still stands in place in many thoughts of man today. Though they proclaim with their tongues they eat from the tree of life their heart is so fat with self that they eat not the Word of life!

The mercy seat was as pure as gold and the overshadowing cherubim shall arise like "the noise of great waters, as the voice of the Almighty, the voice of speech, as the noise of an host!

It is than that they in the holy place and outer court shall see the glory within His called out sons! It is these sons of God that shall be clothed IN Him and none can have these clothes but they that overshadow the mercy seat!

When the priests enter therein, then shall they not go out of the holy place into the utter court, but there they shall lay their garments wherein they minister; for they are holy; and shall put on other garments, and shall approach to those things which are for the people. Ezekiel 42:14

Garments of glory shall no man see nor have but them that dwell in His glory! Garments of glory shall no other have but them tried by Fire and are pure as He is! The last trumpet shall call forth and the vision of His sons shall change as a result of hearing a word never before declared. The last trumpet, the last message, will leave no foundation secure. Far to long the flesh has made one think they are not fit for God! But His Spirit knows how to pray for the one waiting to be changed.

Likewise the Spirit also helpeth our infirmities: for we know not what we should pray for as we ought: but the Spirit itself maketh intercession for us with groanings which cannot be uttered. And he that searcheth the hearts knoweth what is the mind of the Spirit, because he maketh intercession for the saints according to the will of God. Romans 8:26,27

With our eyes fix upon Him who is fire, we shall be changed into the same image, into living creatures of fire!

This message I hear within is not the last message but it speaks of the last message! For the change that hope brings about is the change from mortal to immortal, from corruption to incorruption. Until then upon the mercy seat I rest in Him awaiting for His voice to lift me as wings of a eagle.

As for the likeness of the living creatures, their appearance was like burning coals of fire, and like the appearance of lamps: it went up and down among the living creatures; and the fire was bright, and out of the fire went forth lightning. And the living creatures ran and returned as the appearance of a flash of lightning. Ezekiel 1:13,14

Before the light of glory shone deeply in my heart I've been transfixed to a Word, the wall of fire. Upon my desktop sits a Word, a sermon I heard as a young child in Him, This wall of fire is soon to be seen; wait by my side son and soon you shall arise.

For I, saith the LORD, will be unto her a wall of fire round about, and will be the glory in the midst of her. Zechariah 2:5

This evening as I sit in Him, I read of a vision that has sat in my heart; the glory so soon to be revealed, I in Him and He in me that this world will come to know the One who gives life from a throne!

QUOTE = "Just before we went to Africa, God came to me in a vision. In it I stood where I could view the whole world, and it was wrapped in darkness. At times I could see great fires springing up on the surface of the earth and the people would gather around the fires to warm themselves. Then, as I continued to watch, fires would break out in other places. But without exception, after a large group would gather around the fire, little evil-looking figures came out of the shadows. Those who were gathered around the fire were so occupied with rejoicing that they seemed wholly unconscious of these little figures. But, from where I stood, I could see these shadowy figures as they came silently out of the surrounding darkness. I noticed that each one was carrying a little, engraved shovel. These, they placed in the hands of each one who stood around the fire. In the immediate vicinity, I could see where great fires had burned in bygone days, but had long since burned themselves out, leaving only great heaps of ashes.

"As I watched, each of those around the fire would go over to the ash heap, fill his little shovel with cold ashes; then, with much dignity — as though faithfully performing a solemn duty — they would scatter the cold ashes very carefully over the fire. This they continued to do until the fire was completely smothered and dead. They then knelt in the ashes and prayed for light and warmth. This procedure was repeated over, and over, and over. The world began to grow darker and colder, and the men continued in their efforts to extinguish every fire, here, there, and everywhere...."All the fires had long since died out, and the people were weeping and wailing as they prayed for light and warmth. My heart was deeply stirred and I began to pray with a fervency that can only be born in the darkness of the world's Gethsemanes. Then I became a part of the scene, kneeling in the ashes. No longer an interceding observer, I prayed even more fervently. I stood to my feet and lifted my hands and my face toward heaven. I began to cry with great agony of soul. Louder and louder I lifted my voice, in frantic desperation, until all the other crying around about me was merged into my own desperate cry.

"As I stood there, calling unto the Lord with all the anguish of my soul, I saw a light, ‘way, ‘way high in the heavens, just a speck of light. It began to come closer and closer, and then, suddenly, it stood by my side — a celestial Being of FIRE. He was formed like a man and yet he was a Being of fire. In his hand was a trumpet of fire which he handed to me saying, 'Blow!' I stood transfixed, overcome with awe! He placed the trumpet to my lips; I breathed into it, and Lo! The sound was amplified until it reverberated over the countryside. As I continued to blow, the creature of fire leaped into the ashes and stirred the smoldering embers until the flames leaped high into the sky. I was now blowing the trumpet louder and louder, and people began coming out of the darkness from every direction. The light from the fire seemed now to light the whole earth, and, as the people gathered, they began to march past the fiery messenger. He stood in the flaming fire, and, when they went by, he would give to each of them a trumpet of fire. They, in turn, would put it to their lips and start out across the earth, blowing with all their strength. As they went, fires were lighted everywhere. It seemed as though the very tones of the trumpets were lighting fires, sending a great wall of flame rolling across the earth. It was consuming everything in its path — burning everything as it went. As I looked, I thought, 'What desolation! What desolation! Everything that we have known is gone.' Then it began to rain, a slow, gentle rain.

"As I watched, vegetation began to spring up — grass, green herbs and trees, and every tree was loaded with fruit. Everything was fruitful, there wasn't one thing twisted, warped or barren. I turned to speak to the messenger, but he was gone. Yet the whole world remained beautiful and serene. The warfare was accomplished, the Kingdom of God had been established in the earth, and peace reigned. The long night was over, and morning had come." — End quote.

In awe the heart of one cries out "My heart is fixed, O God; my heart is steadfast...Awake, my glory, awake...I will awake right early [I will awake the dawn]! Be exalted, O God, above the heavens; let Your glory be over all the earth." Psalm 57:7,8,11 Amplified.

Yes, the church may be as some say alseep in the light, but it is the glory of Him that opens the eye lids of His sons so that in admiration and joy they know He comes as Fire within. Although the ashes of revivals may have been shoveled upon the fires of life, the sons are not running off from the flight. But in unison and with lifted hands (surrendered), they are entering into great travail and agony of the soul (brokenness), and praying with such fervency (desperation) that it stirs the very heavens of God.

The plague upon the world may look like something stirred by man. But, it is to be for His glory for the love of money shall fall! This is when the sons, with uplifted eyes, voices, and hands, will see a tiny speck of light high in the heavens of God descending until it stands with them as a glorious celestial Being of fire.

The God within!

A refiners fire that burns so brightly within that only sons of holiness touch by the coal of His being will come forth as the dawn of His new day. Their mouths will be as a flaming trumpet proclaiming to all nations the love He is. Not the mean one seated upon Babylon lips!

For when the eyes of the sons see Him for who He is the trumpets shall blast and the walls of Jericho shall be no more!
