My Vision of a Fire Baptism
It was at 2 a.m. on the 27th of September that The Lord showed me a picture of the FIRE BAPTISM which was spoken of by John the Baptist. John attested that he was a WATER BAPTIZER, but had a vision of something higher, a “FIRE BAPTISM.”
I had just finished ministering at the GRACE TABERNACLE in Pretoria and taken my seat when the Lord spoke to me through a pictorial voice. He showed me Shedrack, Meshack and Abednego in the fire set by Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon (Daniel 3) then said to me, “This is a picture of Fire Baptism.”
I asked Him, “The fire of Nebuchadnezzar? And I had Him say “NO, ME in the Fire and the young men with Me walking comfortably in it.”
This event made news… it was headlined in every news paper and state bulletin and gave the three Hebrew children their proper destiny and place. This is what Jesus is saying now to me in my hotel room in Estcourt, South Africa.
“When men are buried (baptised in me, swallowed up) then can they qualify for My Fire Baptism.
When you experience the new birth, you qualify for water baptism, but when you are swallowed up in me, your greed, self, desire for fame, and making of names, acquisition of riches at all cost then you qualify for My Fire Baptism.
My fire baptism is an announcer, it does not announce you, but Me.
The news of the three Hebrew children was not that they came out of the fire the king set, but about the fourth man in the fire!
My baptism of fire is all about Me and not about you. So long as you are still alive to the world, you do not qualify for it. Fire Baptism can bring fame, but not of you, but Me..
It is My baptism and to be baptized in it is to baptized in Me. I
t is not about you, but about Me. You qualify for this when all your desires and thoughts are towards Me.
I cannot baptize you with a fire that will destroy you! I live in your heart, but I do not grow in people, I want them to grow in Me. When you begin to live in Me, you will find out that every form of growth is found in Me. I can only trust you for this baptism in the degree of your death to self and growth in Me!”
I am still in bed and I feel this awesome fear and reverence on me. Jesus just visited me, but not just for me, but for as many as this word will come to. I desire to reach everyone with this to extend the visitation of Jesus, but I am limited in this noble task. Please help spread this to those who desire HIS FIRE BAPTISM. Feel free to share this on your Facebook wall and to as many as possible.
Lord prepare me for this higher BAPTISM INTO YOU!
