God's Fire Is Now Burning Inside Me

It's now 4:20 A.M. and I woke up about 2:30 A.M. . I think the pain in my neck is what has got me awake, but since God wanted me to write this in the early A.M. today, I'm not really sure the pain is the reason I woke up.

At 3:00 A.M. God turned on the Fire in My Spirit Man while I laid there in my Bed dwelling upon pressing matters. To me I have just realized the stress on my soul must be at it's ultimate limits when God turns on the fire, I can get there from time to time in my walk in the Spirit. I have been thinking this A.M. about the fire and the first time I experienced it in another Christian.

About 22 Years Ago, I was at a revival on I Think Hatch Road  in South Modesto, California in a Assembly Of God Church, where I met this Prophet Of God From The Sierra Mountains who was a Guest Speaker. This revival had been going on for several weeks and I was carried out of there slain in the Spirit I think at least 3 times, once was when I received my Revelation from God.

During the service The Prophet was sitting on the Platform and I was going to discern his Spirit to search him out to find what he was made of. But when I started discerning his Spirit Man I suddenly jerked back from my approach from fear of me being harmed. I found a fire burning inside this man, I had never experienced finding that, before or since. I don't know why I never find that in people but I don't, maybe you are able to when you discern the Spirit of people.

God opened the Door for me to talk with the Prophet. He told me of a story where he believed he had a visitation by an Angel, at his home God gave him in the mountains. I received from this man and I believe my anointing always increases in the presence and touch from God's anointed.

I have been blessed to have been around a lot of anointed people, them lay hands on me in prayer and through Television, I have received multiple healings. Once in the Charismatic Bible Ministries at Oral Roberts University several years ago, Charles Green gave out a message to us gathered there. " I Have Gathered Nector 40 Years for this Hour the Lord Said, It was for Us To Receive and The Speed of The Hummingbird was in the Message Too, Etc ".  I said Lord I'm here to Receive it, and I did. At Another time there at Charismatic Bible Ministries at Oral Roberts University when Kenneth Copeland was leading a prayer. He had us all join hands in prayer ( several thousand of us from all over the world ), he said when you give money to other ministries you become part of that ministry and it's Anointing, he then led us in prayer.

I said to the Lord, Silver and Gold have I none, but such as I have I give. I realized my hands were touching everybody in the building, because we all had our hands joined together in prayer. So I give my prayer to everyone there to become part of there Anointing and There Ministry. I received a Rush in the Spirit of Anointing, I drove home that time on cloud 9. Two Angels were sitting on my two front fenders keeping me safe to get me home because I was so high in the Spirit with my Anointed Injection.

I claim the " Mantle of Anointing " from those that are Anointed and have been, even if it has been years gone by since they lived. I get around anybody that has been with those Anointed people I wasn't, I receive that Mantle from those they knew them. I'm like a Sponge, I receive God's Power, to do God's work.

I use to wonder about Kenneth Copeland many years ago. But one time several years ago after a service at Charismatic Bible Ministries at Oral Roberts University I talked with him. I wasn't with the Pentecostal Holiness Church at that Time, but I was sitting beside who I believe is now the Director Of World Missions for our Denomination.

After the service me and him went to talk to Oral Roberts. I remember what he asked Oral to Pray about. But I wanted to get back a prayer satan stole from me when I was a child.

My parents had talked faith to me about a man God was healing people through. So they took me to Amarillo Texas some 50 miles South of us to see if God would heal my crippled body. Well, when we got there my parents said the tent had blew down and the service was called off. But we could go to another man that was there like the other one. I had lost my healing because my faith was expecting the other man they built me for. Oral Roberts Tent had blew down, I was about 8 years old. I have been crippled in the Natural Man all my life since 18 months old, stricken with Polio since 1945 in Pitcher, Okla., 30 miles from where I live now in Carl Junction, Mo., strange I might add to me I live that close to there. My dad worked in the mines, I'm a Coal Miners Son, and I don't believe there could have been a better Dad than I had, or Mother.

I told Oral what I had lost when I was a Child when his Tent Blew Down before he laid his hand on me, I'm not sure he heard what I said with all the noise, but he prayed for me. I felt tingling all over that crippled part of my body. My body is still crippled, but I thank God I got back my prayer I lost as a child. After all I can also claim that Mantle of Anointing, when he laid hands on me.

When I left talking with Oral I found myself standing in a room with just me and Marilyn Hickey and Kenneth Copeland. I saw Marilyn standing there and I talked to her and shook her hand. She brought my Attention that Kenneth Copeland was there too, my view of him was blocked earlier by a post that was there. I walked up to him to greet him and suddenly God opened up the Spirit to me, discernment took over. I was given the opportunity to see his Spirit Man in a way to show me he was a man of God. I was well pleased, God had satisfied my Spirit from what I seen. I really didn't get a good look At Kenneth's face at the time, because I was looking inside at the time. I'm sure he knew what was happening. I left shortly after that and proceeded on my way.

I have felt Pastors 3 different times discerning me, I was asked once in my Spirit Man to let them inside, and I did, but I answered in The Spirit and said with extreme caution, you better be careful or else, I will defend myself. Later during the meeting this man walked up beside me, and after the service closed he asked me where I was from. I let him in to search my Spirit only because I am under him in the Denomination, I believe he had the right to know my Spirit since I submit to his Authority. He is the only living person that has had that privilege to do that to me.

What I feel when a person is discerning my Spirit is there presence in the Spirit. I feel their Spirit touching mine. I feel like they touch the substance that you can't see that surrounds me, like a Aura ( an energy field that is held to emanate from a living being ) or a Aurora or something ( a phenomenon that surrounds a person that is not seen by the natural eye, that may be luminous to the Spiritual Eye ). When the man came inside to discern me, I first searched who was wanting it, then I realized his presence reached my Aura or Aurora all the way to the Ceiling of that High Church some 20 feet or so. But I knew he only had that privilege because I allowed it to happen. I wonder how many people God allows to feel his wonderful power like I do. I really don't know what other people know or feel when they have that gift operating and touched my Spirit, but the look I seen on the face of the two first Pastors makes me curious. That was several years ago too.

It's now 6:25 A.M. and I need to close this, my wife tells me I rattle sometimes, maybe that's what I'm doing. But God wanted me to come tonight and tell what was on my Heart as I laid there thinking about it. So I have.

God's Fire is Burning Now In Me, The Pressure Has Increased On my Spirit Man and Soul. But God Fights our Battles. Be Careful You Don't Find Yourself Fighting Against God.

God Bless You and Speed You On Your Way

In Him

***************************

I found this interesting reading on Aura, Although I have not read much on the subject.

The aura, a field of energy that surrounds people and other living things, reflects the energy of the spirit in that body. Commonly called the etheric field, this energy extends about two to four inches around the body and is usually a light or pastel shade. Layering the etheric is the aura which contains every color and shade in the rainbow and usually extends 2- 5 feet from the body. Its colors, textures and patterns reveal much information about physical, emotional, mental and spiritual states. An aura is like a thumbprint; it is completely individual and expresses who you really are in all your splendor.

Guy Coggins of Redwood City, California, invented and is now manufacturing cameras that produce photographic representations of the aura. The camera is an optical measuring procedure and is a refinement of Kirilian photography. Fine sensors scan and measure the electromagnetic energy field of the hand. The measured values represent different vibratory rates and therefore different colors. The information is then transferred into the camera and translated into the corresponding colors. The resulting color combination corresponds to the unique energy field of the person. The optical system then produces a high quality Polaroid photo which displays the individual's colors.
