It's Time To Fan The flame

I am encouraged by the Lord today of forthcoming opportunities.  Visions of tasks are met with Kingdom creativity.
With this I know so will come opposition, knowing this and raising the shield of faith to thwart the plan of the dream killer a common drill. This learned task during the preparation season is now a well rehearsed exercise.
Do not fear,
No time to question,
This is Now time.

Let me encourage those for a moment who feel they are in a lifetime of preparation. A season of hardships and never ending trials that have ultimately rooted out every self-sufficient idiology thus deepening your faith and resolve in Christ.   NOW, that your face is set like flint, Now that the answer to the question such as that of Jesus to His deciples on the day that many drew the line only capable of going so far as in John 6:68 NIV.  Simon Peters replies “Lord, to whom shall we go? You have the words of eternal life. We have come to believe and to know that you are the Holy One of God.”

I encourage you now in Christ to revisit the abandoned dream(s) of old. Your season has NOW come, live.

Prayer
Heavenly Father we come before you now Father God we thank you God for the preparation that oftentimes  felt like punishment.  Lord we thank you for the trialt that caused us to choose all along the way who we will serve. Thank you Father God we give you praise and glorify You we magnify You and we stir up and fan the flames og the gifts and high calling placed in us before the very foundations of time. We fan the flames today God we say come Holy Spirit awaken us, awaken us again, awaken us again, we thank You Father God that your spirit and your glory God covers the whole earth, the whole earth.  Amen

“Arise, shine, for your light has come, and the glory of the Lord rises upon you.  Isaiah 60:1 NIV

2 Timothy 1:6-10 AMP
That is why I would remind you to stir up (rekindle the embers of, fan the flame of, and keep burning) the [gracious] gift of God, [the inner fire] that is in you by means of the laying on of my hands [with those of the elders at your ordination]. For God did not give us a spirit of timidity (of cowardice, of craven and cringing and fawning fear), but [He has given us a spirit] of power and of love and of calm and well-balanced mind and discipline and self-control. Do not blush or be ashamed then, to testify to and for our Lord, nor of me, a prisoner for His sake, but [with me] take your share of the suffering [to which the preaching] of the Gospel [may expose you, and do it] in the power of God. [For it is He] Who delivered and saved us and called us with a calling in itself holy and leading to holiness [to a life of consecration, a vocation of holiness]; [He did it] not because of anything of merit that we have done, but because of and to further His own purpose and grace (unmerited favor) which was given us in Christ Jesus before the world began [eternal ages ago]. [It is that purpose and grace] which He now has made known and has fully disclosed and made real [to us] through the appearing of our Savior Christ Jesus, Who annulled death and made it of no effect and brought life and immortality (immunity from eternal death) to light through the Gospel.

John 6:60-71 NIV
On hearing it, many of his disciples said, “This is a hard teaching. Who can accept it?”   Aware that his disciples were grumbling about this, Jesus said to them, “Does this offend you?  Then what if you see the Son of Man ascend to where he was before!  The Spirit gives life; the flesh counts for nothing. The words I have spoken to you—they are full of the Spirit  and life.  Yet there are some of you who do not believe.” For Jesus had known from the beginning which of them did not believe and who would betray him. He went on to say, “This is why I told you that no one can come to me unless the Father has enabled them.”    From this time many of his disciples turned back and no longer followed him.    “You do not want to leave too, do you?” Jesus asked the Twelve.   Simon Peter answered him, “Lord, to whom shall we go? You have the words of eternal life. We have come to believe and to know that you are the Holy One of God.”   Then Jesus replied, “Have I not chosen you, the Twelve? Yet one of you is a devil!”  (He meant Judas, the son of Simon Iscariot, who, though one of the Twelve, was later to betray him.)

In Christ. Be Blessed
