Whatever Can Withstand the Fire
If it can withstand the fire you can have it

On 2-2-05, as I sat in my living room early in the morning, a portal opened up to heaven. Angels began to descend down a path to the place where I sat. They were bringing an altar of incense. The y placed it directly in front of where I sat. Holy Spirit began to impress upon my heart specific people and circumstances and as I began to pray and declare His will and purposes they would rise up over the altar, e taken up to heaven, mixed with His fire and be hurled back to the earth in answered prayer.

As I continued to intercede, I saw that as we pray, proclaim, declare and decree it all passes through His intense fire. There are some things that will be burned up. If it can withstand the fire we can have it.

There is a principal to this process that requires our obedience. We must be willing to submit everything-family, marriage, ministry, relationships, finances, activities, ambitions, desires, perceptions and opinions to the fire. Every prayer we pray must be able to withstand the fire. By making ourselves willing to enter into this process we are asking Him to test and examine every motive of our heart for every prayer we pray and every proclamation that comes from our mouth. He wants our prayers and activities to be what He is doing, not what "we" are doing. Even "good" prayers, if they are not on His agenda need to be examined. We can spend a lot of time praying for everything under the sun and miss our assignment.

We have a precious gift, in our words that we must guard, our words have creative power. If we aren't raising up and building up we are tearing down and dismantling. There is a time for both, we must make sure it is productive. This is why we must allow our motives and intents to be tested. If we pray out of our own presumption or woundedness it becomes nothing more than manipulation and witchcraft. Then, our prayers become a hindrance to the true purpose of heaven. If we are to see these types of witchcraft prayers overcome in the church we must overcome them in our own heart first.

There is an invitation in this process for those who want a new level of intercession. It is for those who desire to move into a new area of authority in declaring the will of the Father and seeing His kingdom purposes established in the earth. That will only happen when our agenda is burned up and His is established.

"You will decree a thing and it will be established …" Job 22:28
Decree = to cut into, to divide
Establish = to raise up, cause to stand
