DOVES EYES:
"THE PURE IN HEART WILL SEE THE BEAUTY OF JESUS"
~ By Rick Pino
Fire Rain Ministries
"I am about to release the full revelation of My beauty to anyone who would be willing to allow it to steal their gaze." This is a quote taken from a word I released in September concerning the unveiling of Jesus‘ beauty. The difference between then and now is that, He is not just "about" to release this revelation, He is doing it right now!
"SO HOW CAN WE SEE HIS BEAUTY?"
The pure in heart are the ones who see God, so the pure in heart are the ones who will see His beauty! The pure in heart have what Song of Songs calls, "Dove’s Eyes".
In Matthew Henry‘s beautiful commentary on the Song of Solomon, he states, "Christ sees His fair ones as ones who have not the piercing eye of the eagle, but the pure and broken eye of the dove, not like the hawk, who, when he soars upwards, he still has his eye upon the prey of the earth, but a humble modest eye, such an eye as discovers a simplicity and Godly sincerity and a dove-like innocence, eyes enlightened and guided by the Holy Spirit."
"TO HAVE THE LOVERS GAZE, OR DOVE'S EYES, MEANS THAT YOUR HEARTS PERCEPTION IS TOTALLY FIXED ON HIM AND HIM ALONE."
It means, you are inflamed with holy love and desires toward Christ, with joyful expectations of His glory to be revealed! The amazing part is, you become like what you look at! That’s right! What you look at is what you start to look like! We learn foundations for this principal from the story of Jacob’s cattle in Genesis chapter 30.
"THE MORE WE LOOK AT JESUS, THE MORE WE ARE FILLED WITH HIS BEAUTY!"
The more we are filled with His beauty, the more we actually become the manifestation of this word I released in September! We literally become the revelation of His beauty to the world! If we stay under the ocean of His beauty, we act as a mirror that reflects His beauty into the earth.
"WE MUST FIRST SEE HIS BEAUTY SO THAT THE WORLD CAN SEE HIS BEAUTY!"
So lets continue to cry out for purity of heart! Lets keep contending for purity in our motives, in our desires, in our ambitions, in our sexuality and in all other areas of life because as we do, we open wide the gates of our soul for the King of Glory to come in and invade our hearts with His glorious beauty!
Psalm 90:17 "Let the beauty of the LORD our God be upon us, And establish the work of our hands for us; Yes, establish the work of our hands."
God’s tender blessings to you and your loves ones this Holiday season from all of us here at Fire Rain!

"ALL CREATION IS GROANING FOR A NEW BIRTH!"
~ John Mark Pool
Word To The World
"For we know that all creation has been groaning as in the pains of childbirth right up to the present time." Romans 8:22
"2008 IS A NEW YEAR WITH A NEW BIRTH! YET WE MUST BRING IT TO PASS."
Women understand this more than men because they carry the process full term. All creation depends upon us in the birth chambers of intercession to bring this light of the world into existence on the earth as it is in Heaven. We can do this! Our time is now!
Sin will never have the last word. God made the earth as a habitation for His people. The occurrence of sin brought on decay and disturbance of purposes. "The Heavens are Thine, the earth also is Thine: as for the world and the fullness thereof, Thou hast founded them." Psalm 89:11
God, The only Creator, will one day redeem His people (those who are in Christ Jesus) and the earth. Paul personified the elements of nature as looking forward to deliverance the same way that Christians anticipate our glorified resurrection body.
The same Holy Spirit that brooded over the waters in creation (Genesis 1:2) has been given to Christians as a foretaste and assurance of the glorious hope that awaits us. We can live with joy, assured that we have a wonderful expectation awaiting us. That hope includes a new, transformed world, which will again pass God's examination as "very good" (Genesis 1:31).
"AS FOR NOW, HOWEVER, I FEEL THAT ALL OF CREATION THAT WAS MADE BY THE MOST HIGH GOD -- IS GROANING FOR MANY REASONS."
This is the season that coincides with the celebration of the birth of the Savior of the world. Mary was anticipating a birth that would cost her everything in reputation; and yet it would gain her place in the Kingdom as she willingly became the host of Heaven's pledge to regain all of the lost humanity that would accept Jesus Christ as their Lord.
Those who know of the witness of Christ but have continually rejected Him, as THE ONLY Savior of the world, will begin feeling this season of anticipation causing them to groan in desperation for an answer. We are that answer, yet the world must be brought to a stage of acceptance either by their willingness or by increasing disasters that will certainly increase each year.
The physical earth has been terribly abused and is reeling with the pangs of the anticipation of the new birth of the new Heavens. You do not sow into destruction of God's created earth without reaping certain natural disasters. Calamities will surely increase each year until we understand that God is serious about His creation.
"THE BIRTHING TIME IS NEAR!"
Isaiah wrote in Isaiah 66:1-2, "Thus saith the LORD, The Heaven is My throne, and the earth is My footstool: where is the house that ye build unto Me? and where is the place of My rest? For all those things hath Mine hand made, and all those things have been, saith the LORD: but to this man will I look, even to him that is poor and of a contrite spirit, and trembleth at My word."
God made it all for us to bring Him glory in our multiplication process. We are the ones that have been assigned the Kingdom dominion process. We are not waiting on God--He is waiting on us.
"THIS NEW BIRTH IS DEPENDING UPON OUR ACTIONS NOW."
"Do I bring to the moment of birth and not give delivery?" says the LORD. "Do I close up the womb when I bring to delivery?" says your God." Isaiah 66:9
God is waiting on our intensity of pressing into the birthing process of something that all creation is groaning over today! Will we hear the pangs of the new birth? Will we stand in a gap and make up a hedge?
It is not depending upon church size, church affiliation, days of the week of attendance, or names. The new birth of the Kingdom that is now coming in this earth as it is in Heaven, depends upon the people of God staying in the birthing chambers of intercession and being consumed by the Father in a holy desperation for something we have been promised--since creation!
"COME ON, PEOPLE OF GOD! DESPERATION WILL INDEED PLACE A DEMAND UPON OUR DESTINY!"
ALL CREATION IS GROANING!

"CARRIERS OF THE GLORY"
Excerpts taken from:
(Dancing With Destiny: Awaken your Heart to Dream, to Love, to War)
~ by Jill Austin
Explosions of glory! The tangible presence of the Holy Spirit! This time it was not just I who was overshadowed but all 120 of us. Tongues like fire fell and we were gloriously baptized in the Holy Spirit.
We were so excited. We gave ourselves to prayer night and day, sharing all we had, and loving each other so much. We grew from one hundred and twenty to three thousand to five thousand.
Signs, wonders and miracles followed as we told everyone about Jesus. It should be easy to grow the Church until we see Jesus coming again in the clouds.
They were baptized in the Holy Spirit, and the Church was set ablaze. They received the gift of tongues and the courage to be radical and passionate lovers of Jesus Christ. The outpouring of the Holy Spirit was, and still is, a ministry of multiplication, intimacy and partnership.
When the Holy Spirit moves through us, it is not just for our benefit. He wants to bring conviction, salvation, healing and deliverance to suffering humanity.
"LIFE WAS ANYTHING BUT EASY FOR MARY AND THE EARLY CHURCH."
Persecution scattered the believers, resulting in the spread of the Gospel to other nations. Mary's journey on earth likely continued through seasons of revival and warfare-cycles of life and death maturing her toward bridal love.
Our passionate, lovesick Bridegroom wants us to be His Bride and love Him wholeheartedly-not just when we finally see Him face-to-face, but throughout this perilous faith-walk on earth. As we peer into the glass darkly we sometimes see so little of Him that we grow discouraged.
Beloved, never let your heart grow faint. Never give up. We are lovers on a lifelong journey. Let's pray to be overshadowed by His Spirit, impregnated with His purposes and eager to do His will. The journey of the lover's heart is where it all begins and never ends.

"IN THE BROOM CLOSET OF PRAYER"
Excerpts taken from:
(Dancing With Destiny: Awaken your Heart to Dream, to Love, to War)
~ by Jill Austin
I ran out of my pastor’s office, absolutely terrified. I’ve got to find a place to hide so I can hear from God. At the end of the hall a door caught my eye. In desperation I rushed to it, ducked inside the tiny dark room and closed the door behind me.
The room smelled of industrial strength disinfectant; I could feel the long handles of brooms and mops. My heart was pounding. I knew I had heard a Scripture once about getting into a prayer closet so I whispered, "Okay, God, I’m listening. Quick! Help!"
What am I doing? I can’t believe I’m hiding in the closet. I cried out again, "Lord, I’ve got to go out any minute and talk in front of two thousand people. I need a script. I didn’t understand I needed a script. Lord, I need to hear from You." I was close to panic.
I laid my head against the mops and brooms, breathing the dust and fumes from the cleaning products, as I continued crying out to the Lord. In just a few moments I would have to step up onto the platform at our church’s popular Saturday night service and minister for the first time in my life. Sweat dripped down my face.
"Lord, I’m listening. What do You want to say?" I strained to listen but I heard nothing. "Lord, are You going to talk to me?" Nothing.
Have you noticed that the harder you keep trying to hear Him the more you seem to get spiritually constipated? It seems that nothing comes out.
All of a sudden I realized that my pastor was probably wondering where I was. I’d better get out. It wouldn’t be cool for people to find me hiding in a closet.
"Okay, Lord, when the coast is clear I’m going to step out of this closet and walk back to his office, and no one will even know that I’ve been hiding here."
With my ear to the door I heard my pastor ask, "Has anyone seen her? It’s time to start."
One of the leather-clad musicians said, "She’s down the hallway in the closet."
I then began pleading with God to rapture me! I could hear heavy footsteps coming toward me. I was trapped. All I could think was, Can I just vanish? Can the earth open up and swallow me? What can I do?
How did I get stuck here in this closet? I’m an artist; I’m a potter. I don’t belong on a stage. Why did I agree to talk to an audience while seated at my potter’s wheel? I obviously didn’t understand what I was getting into.

"WATCH RAISING THE DEAD -- ONLINE NOW!"
God wants you to walk in the fullness of the Kingdom mandate. He wants you to heal the sick, cast out demons, be a blessing to all you encounter, and even raise the dead.
As a ministry, we believe we are entering a time when God is going to allow His church to walk in a new level of authority and power to glorify His name and bear fruit for His Kingdom by raising the dead.
In this video, Patricia teaches from the gospels, and shares testimonies about the dead being raised. In addition to recent testimonies we have heard, Patricia also shares a testimony from Stacey Campbell and Mickey Robinson shares how he himself was raised from the dead!
During this video, Patricia prays for you to be one who carries the glory in such a way that you will raise the dead and mightily glorify God everywhere you go!
"WATCH RAISING THE DEAD NOW!"
