The Midnight Ocean
  
Reflections, Poetry, and Prose from the depths of the Midnight Ocean.
Out of the depths I cry to you, O LORD;
O Lord, hear my voice. Let your ears be attentive to my cry for mercy. Psalm 130
Behold, the days come, saith the LORD, that I will make a new covenant. After those days, saith the LORD,
I will put my law in their inwards parts, and write it in their hearts; and will be their God,
and they shall be my people. Jeremiah 31:31-33
Wherefore the law is holy, and the Commandment Holy, and just, and good. Rom7:12
Sifatai tiftach- u'fi yagid- tehilatecha!
- If I open my lips- let my mouth- declare Your praise!

THE ETERNAL FIRE Jul 22, 2008 8:27 am

Within each of us is a latent remnant of Almighty G-d, the Creator. "Let us create man in Our image."
"Through him all things were made; without him nothing was made that has been made." John 1:3

We are born into the cold world naked and innocent, and crying out. For even Adam and Eve did not know of their nakedness, until they had sinned against G-d's command. It was then that they sought to cover themselves.
"And He said, 'Who told you you were naked.'" Gen3:11
Who did tell them they were naked???

Life can be tragic. It's at times painful, and cruel, and sometimes seemingly merciless.
We cover ourselves with bands and layers to protect ourselves from the worlds cruelness. We cover ourselves out of shame and fear.

The evil element of our world teaches us to sin, and we clothe ourselves with filthy rags.
It was the enemy who told them they were naked. The accuser of the brethren.

Headlines today are covered with things that are wicked beyond comprehension. Unimaginable evil. But, I've seen things, and done things that are incomprehensibly beautiful too. These kinds of things make life worth living.
When you break through all the semantics of life, all the confusion and drudgery, what do you really believe in? What is worthwhile?

I believe that we come into this world for one reason alone. That's to make the darkness of this world Light.

Mt5:14 "Ye are the light of the world. A city that is set on an hill cannot be hid."

We're going get dim, people will -steal our light... as we add another layer covering our latent innocent and G-dly nature. Covering that little child inside that burns with enthusiasm and light.
I believe we all have what is called the Aish Tamid, which is an Eternal Fire. It's something that G-d alone can turn out.

"The soul of man is a candle of G-d" (Proverbs 20:27)"

It's within us, we must try to uncover it. We must find that ember and fan the flame, so that it may shine unto the world, as a reflection of our Savior who is the Truth and the Life.
As one fire begets another fire.
As Holy Fire of tabernacle where upon the offering was consumed with fire out of the heavens. Three times in Scripture, G-d himself is explicitly called a "consuming fire." (Deut 4:24; 9:3; Heb 12:29).

Mt 5:15 "Neither do men light a candle, and put it under a bushel, but on a candlestick; and it giveth light unto all that are in the house."

We must strip away all the layers of facade of life in the physical- to reveal that light given us by G-d, and the indwelling of the Holy Spirit, achieved by the sacrifice of Christ. Rags washed in the blood of the Lamb, become clean and white. He can strip away all the filthy rags of the past. He can save us from the evil and wickedness taught us by the world, through sanctification and grace.

We must seek to uncover ourselves by, following G-d's Word and our Lord Jesus Christ.
"...do the first works or I will come and remove thy candlestick." Rev 2:5

For those written in the Lamb's Book of Life have eternal salvation. As the Lamb is both Eternal and Light.

IIPeter 1:19 "We have also a more sure word of prophecy; whereunto you do well that you take heed, as to a light that shines in a dark place, until the day dawn, and the day star arise in your hearts."

Surely we have the prophecy of Christ as the Eternal Light of the world to come.

"And the city had no need of the sun, neither of the moon, to shine in it: for the glory of God did lighten it, and the Lamb is the light thereof." Rev 21:23

Take off the layers and reveal that latent Fire inside. That candle of G-d. You must first give yourself up, and only then will you become whole. And by Him we can become clothed in white, and baptized with Aish Tamid, the Eternal Fire that is part of Him. Eternally.

"And he was clothed with a vesture dipped in blood: and His name is called The Word of God." Rev 19:13

Shalom friends,
