The Father says today, experience the fire of My Spirit.

In your life, I am a consuming fire,

and in the furnace of refining I am perfecting you and burnishing you into My image.
Make it your determination to render every aspect of your life combustible in My
presence. Refuse to allow yourself to be emotionally invested in those things that are
only wood, hay and stubble. I have called you to higher things, says the Father, so open
your heart and your mind to the cleansing wind that is blowing in this season of time and
in the circumstances you are walking through. Only those things that are reflective of My
character will remain in your life as you say yes to My "yes" and trust Me to be the
fourth man in your fire.

What I'm saying, says the Father, is I am turning up the heat, not to destroy you but to
answer the very cry of your heart. Determine to rid yourself of that one toxic
relationship that has torpedoed your destiny and robbed you of the joy that is your
portion. Lot had no place with Abraham. There are those in your life such as Lot - they
cannot go where I am taking you. Set your affection upon the throne and allow Me to
give you the grace to set aside your Ishmaels and every compromised relationship and
situation, that I might bring you forth and cause you this day to ride in the high places of
the earth as is your calling and your ultimate destiny

The Father says today, the move is on. You are leaving the old things behind and making
your transition to fresh territory and different blessings. Know that your investments of time
and energy in current relationships and commitments are not lost. Nothing is ever adrift in
My kingdom when you put your foot forward in the path that I have set before you. Face
forward then and eyes front! Remember Lot's wife. Your blessings lie ahead of you, so
release and bless what has passed on behind you. Press onward with zeal and passion, for
greater things, greater days and greater glory are just ahead.

This is more than a momentary adjustment, says God. No matter how fond you are of what
is, you must always learn to hold everything loosely. Learn to own nothing. Learn to anchor
your security in nothing more than who I am in your life. In so doing, you will go from glory
to glory and faith to faith from now to the end of your earth journey. Things that remain the
same and never change or move always come to death. The cloud of My presence is shifting
ever forward, and the pillar of fire is continually lighting your path on to the next
assignment. You are a pilgrim pressing in to greater glory, greater anointing and greater
conquest in My kingdom.
