REFINER'S FIRE... Mary Ann Wray This word is for somebody. I pray it will bring understanding to your situation. God loves you! "For the LORD your God is a consuming fire, a jealous God." Deuteronomy 4: 24 "You shall have no other gods before me." Exodus 20: 3 "If we are thrown into the blazing furnace, the God we serve is able to deliver us from it, and he will deliver us from Your Majesty’s hand. But even if he does not, we want you to know, Your Majesty, that we will not serve your gods or worship the image of gold you have set up.” Daniel 3: 17-18 You may wonder why things may not be working out as you've planned or prayed, and every step you take forward seems to take you further backwards. It's like the fire gets hotter and hotter and you grow more and more weary. Maybe God is trying to get your attention and burn off the dross so you can see HIM in HIS beauty and majesty! Maybe there are...

All Consuming Fire...in October and Eternity! When the Holy Ghost told me "October Fire" back in August, I had the wrong idea. I thought, "Oh Glory! We're going to see revival!" Well, before we can have revival we have to get out of the way! He is an ALL CONSUMING fire. His fire will either consume us and everything that is of the flesh or repel us away from Him. Either way, we are going to get burned. It's better to burn now for a season rather than have our works burned up for an eternity. Once the dross of our self will and reasonings are burned out, His word will become like fire shut up in our bones. Peter's shadow healed people because God-fire produces a God-shadow! "At that time his voice shook the earth, but now he has promised, “Yet once more I will shake not only the earth but also the heavens.” This phrase, “Yet once more,” indicates the removal of things that are shaken—that is, things that have been made—in order that ...

October 29, 2018 Mary Ann Wray “I am the rose of Sharon, and the lily of the valleys.” (Solomon 2:1) A lady in our church gave a word yesterday about the process for harvesting wheat. I've heard about the process many times before, but it's always good to hear something repeated to bring fresh revelation to it. The wheat had to be beaten on a threshing floor then winnowed afterward. The winnowing fork was used to separate the wheat from the chaff by throwing the grains of wheat up in the air. The wind would blow the chaff away from the kernels of wheat. After she said this I remembered what Jesus said about a kernel of wheat needing to die in order to produce a fruit. That kernel must be planted in the earth and go through a literal process of death. The outer coat of the grain must get crushed  and falls away. Only then can the seed produce a harvest. After she was gave this word I smelled roses. Next, I heard “Rose of Sharon”. Lastly, I heard , “...

Kingdom Family Life Doing life together is just as important as doing ministry together. If we don’t “break bread”, talk about our struggles openly,  pray and support each other in our humanity, and do things outside of the four walls of the church with other disciples, supernatural things can quickly become a source of conflict. Jesus spent time with his closest  disciples.  Therefore, their ministry was built upon and as a result of relationship and their relationship produced lasting fruit of Holy Spirit ministry everywhere they went! Their relationships were purposeful yet not without conflict. Without purposeful relationships,  ministry can quickly become a battlefield. If we purposely pursue fellowship out side of ministry this will help prevent falling into the trap of becoming too busy or knowing one another only by our gifting‘s rather than who we are as children of God/ family. We can’t let the basis of our relationships solely be established ...

The Seer anointing You May not  See… Mary Ann Wray This revelation came to me today as I meditated upon the call of God; especially the call of a prophet. I do not claim to be one, but I'm continually learning and praying for understanding from The Father about the cost involved in following Jesus. There is a definite lifelong process involved in answering the call of God since we are on the journey towards receiving the end of our faith-the full redemption of our souls (1 Peter 1: 8-9). My call to serve is one that I received 42 years ago and still haven't totally grasped it in its fullness.   I believe The Lord shared some insights  with me today that I’d like to share with you; that is, after I ‘tempered’ this download to be more suitable for public consumption. How God deals with me may not be the way He deals with you. However,  I have learned that the Father doesn’t play games when it comes to carrying His message and tending His flock. ...

Daily Inspiration... # grace “Grace and peace be multiplied to you in the knowledge of God and of Jesus our Lord, 3 as His divine power has given to us all things that pertain to life and godliness, through the knowledge of Him who called us by glory and virtue, 4 by which have been given to us exceedingly great and precious promises, that through these you may be partakers of the divine nature, having escaped the corruption that is in the world through lust. 5 ¶ But also for this very reason, giving all diligence, add to your faith virtue, to virtue knowledge, 6 to knowledge self-control, to self-control perseverance, to perseverance godliness, 7 to godliness brotherly kindness, and to brotherly kindness love. 8 For if these things are yours and abound, you will be neither barren nor unfruitful in the knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ. 9 For he who lacks these things is shortsighted, even to blindness, and has forgotten that he was cleansed from his old sins. 10 ¶ Th...

The New Wine!  Mary Ann Wray And be not drunk with wine, wherein is excess; but be filled with the Spirit;  19 Speaking to yourselves in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing and making melody in your heart to the Lord;  20 Giving thanks always for all things unto God and the Father in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ;  21 Submitting yourselves one to another in the fear of God." Ephesians 5: 18- 21 I first want to thank God that in His mercy He rescued me from a pack of the enemy's lies that I now realize began with one little lie. This is not an article to argue whether or not a Christian can or should drink wine (Colossians 2: 16). This is just  a story about how I devolved from faith to doubt and unbelief back to faith again. It's a story about how the enemy used alcohol and pills to nearly destroy me. At first, I began drinking because I was angry with God about how my life did not turn out the way I wanted it to after Bible C...
