Do not play with fire, because if you do, surely you will get burned. The enemy is a deceiver, and a manipulator, and he goes about as a roaring lion seeking those who he can devour, because he knows many are not serious with Me, and that they only have the appearance of having known Me. But deep inside I know their heart, and I know who follow Me out of selfish gain, and not because they love Me. And so does the enemy know who is Mine, and he knows who isn’t serving Me with a heart of sincerity.

This is the end of all times, and it is sure to come a major falling away from anything that is holy and separate from the world. For many are living a life dabbling in very dangerous areas, and yes, surely they will get burned. For yes, I AM a consuming fire, and I burn up all that is not of Me. Either you yield out of willingness, coming to Me already broken and repentant, or I will come with My fury. For judgment begins first with the house of My son.

Those who are called by My name must humble themselves, and wake up to the seriousness of the hour. You must not walk with one foot in the fire of hell, and think that you are living for Me, My kingdom, and My righteousness.

For the hour has come when the days of preparation are coming to an end. By now you should have already had My word hidden in your heart, basking in My intimate presence, built up as mighty warriors set in your ranks, and marching covered with My armor of Light towards the enemy, taking back all that he was allowed to rob.

For many decades My people have been asleep to the tactics and strategies of the enemy, and because of deception they have handed over to the enemy much ground. But I AM rising up as a Mighty Man of War, and I AM calling My troops to come forward to listen closely to My plan and purpose of how to take back and recover all that the enemy has stolen.

The enemy might think that he is the victor, but I know that everything that I allowed him to do was to bring forth My plan and purpose in the land. He might have thought that he had won the battle, because many lost their lives, and there was much destruction. But if you look past the natural, you can see that I AM sovereign, and that I AM in control of all things, and that My word is mighty, and it has gone forth accomplishing all that it was sent out to do.

So I say this day to not trust the enemy, because he is not a faithful god. Even if you give him your life, he will not reward you. He is a wolf in sheep’s clothing, an angel of light, a deceiver, and a manipulator. He does not care for you. He will destroy you!

So if you play with fire, surely you will get burned, and beyond recognition you will become. You will wear the smell of hell’s fire, not the sweet fragrance of having been with Me. Many will be able to tell you by your fruit. You can trick others, and even yourself for a season, but when your heart has become tainted, and your conscience seared, you have become only a pawn used by the enemy in the camp of My dear Son.

You will be working against Me, and not for Me, and even to the extent that you are with My people, even that will become distasteful to you. You will not delight in My presence being close to those who walk in holiness, and you will depart into the world, lost forever. Because you cannot make a habit of doing those things that you have been delivered of knowingly without falling under judgment and condemnation.

For surely it is a frightful thing to fall into the hands of One who’s cup is full of rage towards all that is unholy, for surely I AM a consuming fire!

Wake up to the seriousness of the hour. Repent before it is too late, for the gates to being received into My kingdom are beginning to close. You have had your opportunity, what are you doing with it? I gave My Son so that you could have eternal life with Me. Don’t throw it all away for I love you, but I cannot condone sin.

Whenever He could He would come apart from the busyness of the world so that He could quiet Himself before the Father, for that is where He received direction and strength to carry out His will.
