Oil +Fire= Light

Ray:
Oil is the spirit... The fire (flame) produces the LIGHT. (2 witnesses)

Like that one...John the Baptist said there was one coming after him who would baptize us with the Holy Ghost AND Fire. What good would the oil do us unless it has been ignited and set aflame....as you said, there is no light without the fire.

Hallelujah, he not only fills you with his spirit (oil) but he lights our fire !! - divine quickening....and then we are able to let our little light shine.

"The house of Jacob shall be a fire and the house of Joseph (who was given the birthright) a flame, but the house of Esau (man of flesh) shall be stubble, they shall kindle and burn them and consume them, and there shall be no survivor of the house of Esau, for the Lord has spoken it." Obadiah 18

"Moses also reminds Israel of their refusal to "go up the mountain" (5:5). In the account given in Exodus 20:18-21, it is unclear as to whether God was inviting them to go UP the mountain, or simply to stand their ground and listen to His words. But here we see clearly that they had been invited to go up the mountain, even as Moses had gone up. Ferrar Fenton translates this passage, "you were afraid at the presence of the fire and could not ascend to Him."

Their fear limited their ability to hear and obey God's voice. Their refusal to ascend the mount meant that the law would not be written on their hearts by the voice and fire of God. They would have to receive the law on external tablets of stone, so that they could study the word from a distance. Since then, the only way for the law to be transferred to their hearts is for men to overcome their fear of fire and to receive that baptism of fire that changes men's character and gives them the mind of Christ."  Stephen Jones

Enlarging Your Definition of Self

"Imagine enlarging your definition of self to include all of life."

Ron your comments by Dr. Keck made me think of a writing by a friend of mine, a friend that actually practiced meditations where he would start with himself and then begin to see his energy field expand out enveloping his immediate space, then his neighborhood, his town, his state, our country, our world, our universe etc.... so I will share some excerpts from his thoughts:

Full-On Energy Hookup

The resistance we have built up as ego and body to create a 'them' and 'me' perspective must be released to accept a full flow of all-there-is-energy and transform. On my bike ride to day our Self was showing me the energy acceleration we need to exhibit our light form comes from a full-on link up with all the energy in the multiverses. Total unconditional acceptance of all the energy. This energy flow will accelerate all our physical cells, break down the pattern that imprisons them, and set us free.

"It is the merging of your inner and outer reality. You already 'know' you are the inner Self looking through those eyeballs but you are also the outer you. You are the all the observers (all inner beings) and you are all the observed ( all creation). You can look your Self in the face in everyOne you meet. All creation is waiting for this acknowledgement - this connection. The experience of this is the 'union'." End Quote

If transfiguration is a full-on energy hookup with All Of Ourself, Our True Self, Our Christ Self, WOW, guys. As we let go of our resistances we will enter into the full-on "glorious liberty of the sons of God" without measure"! And yes, creation is waiting for the acknowledgement that you see them for who they really are. They feel what vibration you are coming from - love or judgement- no matter what your words are, the spirit of either love or judgement is conveyed and picked up by their spirit, even if it is only the weather you may be talking about. If it is love and recognition of the Christ in them, there is a true energy exchange going on in the spirit and "My Lord will say unto My Lord" reality happens and we actually are those life-giving spirits.

Energetically yours,
Karen
