                     A Season Of FIRE


Isaiah 4:4-6
 4 When the Lord shall have washed away the filth of the daughters of Zion, 
   and shall have purged the blood of Jerusalem from the midst thereof by 
   the spirit of judgement, and by the spirit of burning.
 5 And the Lord will create upon every dwelling place of Mount Zion, and 
   upon her assemblies, a cloud and smoke by day, and shining of a flaming 
   fire by night: for upon all the glory shall be a defense.
 6 And there shall be a tabernacle for a shadow in the daytime from the 
   heat, and for a place of refuge, and for a covert from storm and from 
   rain.

This is a season of divine cleansing. I am purifying my house with a baptism 
of fire. I am purging away the dross. I would have a sanctified vessel of 
honour before Me that I may use for My glory. 

Do not think it strange the season you are in as though some strange thing 
has happend to you. I would have you purified as gold is purifed so that I 
can create in you My dwelling place.  and in My presence you will find 
guidience, refuge from the storm, a defense against the enemy. I wish to 
dwell in you. 

Therefore, as a woman prepares her home for her guests, so she would not 
be ashamed of the mess, so I charge you to prepare yourself to be My 
tabernacle. Purge yourself of dead works, allow a spirit of repentance 
to come as a forerunner to a season of miracles.
