Some days ago, I was part of a circle of Friends praying, and this happened: she prayed for the LORD to consume us.  I instantly said within my own thoughts, Father, what does that mean? Consume us? And instantly, I remembered an account in Scripture about Sacrifices and that when they were acceptable to Father GOD, fire would come down from heaven and consume them.

2 Chronicles 7: 1 When Solomon had finished praying, fire came down from heaven and consumed the burnt offering and the sacrifices, and the glory of the LORD filled the temple.  source 

There are likely more Scriptures addressing this, but for that moment and even now, this is sufficient for me to understand the request and the desire to be acceptable to The LORD, (and in CHRIST JESUS we certainly are!) and to have Him come by His Spirit and fill us, as He did Solomon’s Temple that day; to burn up and rid us of the bondage of besetting sins that keep us from fellowshiping with Him as He desires.
I am rejoicing in His instant response that day, and I am grateful that even when His Reply is longer than I like, He still answers.

So, my Treasured Friends, I hope your Questions are answered instantly today, but even if they are not, I hope you will rest easy that He will answer.

Holy hugs, Kathie עֶבֶד
