There was a shipwreck at sea and the
sole survivor was a man who swam to a nearby deserted island. He took as much of
the food from the wreckage that could be salvaged and put it in a pile and
covered the food with the mast of the ship. He knew that when the food ran out,
he would soon perish.
Without The Fire...He Would Not Have Been Found
One day he took a walk to the other side of
the island. As he was returning back, he saw huge flames shooting up out of the
pile of food that was stored. He became extremely angry, and he began beating
his fists into the sand and started cursing God. As he was cursing God, he heard
a sound... a foghorn in the distance. He looked up, and there was a big ship on
the horizon of the waters.
He watched as men began to climb down off
this big ship into small boats and started rowing towards the shore. The first
small boat to reach the shore had the Captain of the big ship in it. The Captain
stepped out of the boat and walked up to the man on the island. The Captain
said, "Mister, if you hadn't lit that fire, we would never have found you! If
you hadn't lit that fire..."
I sense there are many of God's people right
now who, for some reason, the Father has allowed some precious things -
relationships, and things you thought you couldn't live without - to go up in
smoke and flames. I sense many are bewildered and angry.
Focus on what you're gaining - not what you're losing!
The enemy is trying to convince many to blame
God for what you have lost and turn away from Him. Many are so angry and bitter
that they cannot really hear God at all right now. But I hear something for you.
Listen very carefully. This is what I hear: mmmmmmm, mmmmmm. I hear a
'spiritual' foghorn in the distance...Jesus is very near!
The enemy is telling you to look at what you are losing. Jesus is saying, "Look
at what you are about to gain! If you have lost something that you believe is
God's will for you to have, then He is able to bring it back in His timing."
Things that we think we can't live without are often very frail and combustible.
Fire often helps us to surrender those things that we are unable to give up on
our own. God gives beauty for ashes.
Oh, Father, if You call us to the fire, You will not withdraw your Hand.
We'll gaze into the flames and look for You!
I think I smell something precious burning...
