Reflections

  Gleaning Season


Leaving leftover crops and fallen produce in your fields is a command from God designed to provide food for people in need. This food was reserved for the poor, widows, orphans, and foreigners (strangers) living in the community. 

(Leviticus 19:9-10)


"The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, because he hath anointed me to preach the gospel to the poor; he hath sent me to heal the brokenhearted, to preach deliverance to the captives, and recovering of sight to the blind, to set at liberty them that are bruised, To preach the acceptable year of the Lord." 

(Luke 4:18-19)


Gleaning comes after each main harvest and is for distributing unused food, to fight food waste, and combat hunger; so that these items are not left to rot. What are you leaving behind in your harvests for others to glean from as you continue forward in The Word of The Lord, from season to season?


Year after year, there are 3 main harvests… then comes the Oil of completion. These are linked to the three major pilgrim festivals: Passover, Pentecost, and Tabernacles.


"Doth the plowman plow all day to sow? doth he open and break the clods of his ground? When he hath made plain the face thereof, doth he not cast abroad the fitches, and scatter the cummin, and cast in the principal wheat and the appointed barley and the rie in their place? For his God doth instruct him to discretion, and doth teach him." (Isaiah 28:24-26)


The Barley harvest is the firstfruits of the year that spring up, and these are thrown into the air where the wind strips it of its outer shell, its husk.


Consider the Holy Prophets, and Apostles, who were chosen to be the firstfruits unto God and The Lamb. The "appointed barley" is chosen by God, moved by the Wind of The Holy Spirit, and sent by God to speak only what The Lord God gives them to speak. (consider Revelation 14:4)


"And he said unto me, Son of man, stand upon thy feet, and I will speak unto thee." (Ezekiel 2:1)


"But when they shall lead you, and deliver you up, take no thought beforehand what ye shall speak, neither do ye premeditate: but whatsoever shall be given you in that hour, that speak ye: for it is not ye that speak, but the Holy Ghost." (Mark 13:11)


The Wheat harvest comes after this, and wheat is beaten or threshed, to have its outer shell removed.


Consider the "principal wheat", like disciples that follow The Word of God, and continue with Him; to “become” like Him. God always has His remnant, and His People are often called the “children of the Prophets”.


"Yea, and all the prophets from Samuel and those that follow after, as many as have spoken, have likewise foretold of these days. Ye are the children of the prophets, and of the covenant which God made with our fathers, saying unto Abraham, And in thy seed shall all the kindreds of the earth be blessed. Unto you first God, having raised up his Son Jesus, sent him to bless you, in turning away every one of you from his iniquities." (Acts 3:24-26)


These are sifted as wheat by satan, even the disciples were, just as all children of God are, who are called by His Name, and drawn by His Word.


As Jesus said to Peter, after this sifting of the trials of Faith, then Peter would be converted to strengthen the brethren; not before… but afterward.


"And the Lord said, Simon, Simon, behold, Satan hath desired to have you, that he may sift you as wheat: But I have prayed for thee, that thy faith fail not: and when thou art converted, strengthen thy brethren." (Luke 22:31-32)


Jesus said the first shall be last and the last shall be first. Godly order is perfect but not understood by man’s own logic. Many are drawn and gather around The Word of God, but not all continue with Him, just as many prophets and disciples have come; some True and some false. We see these from the beginning, and even to this very day.


The Power to “become” is in God’s hands only, for only He can give the increase. Saying first…come and follow Him by Faith, then you shall see afterward; to be revealed in due season.


As Jesus also said… let the wheat and tares grow together first, then afterward you will know them by their fruit.


You may also notice that when Jesus stood to declare the “Acceptable Year of The Lord”, He closed the book before the second part of the Prophecy would be spoken, “and the day of vengeance of our God.” Jesus held that second part back from being spoken because He took it upon Himself first on The Cross. This marked the time of Salvation for all, opening The Way, so that all could come and eat of the harvest freely; and the time of refreshing for His People to rest, wait, and trust upon.


"The Spirit of the Lord God is upon me; because the Lord hath anointed me to preach good tidings unto the meek; he hath sent me to bind up the brokenhearted, to proclaim liberty to the captives, and the opening of the prison to them that are bound; To proclaim the acceptable year of the Lord, and the day of vengeance of our God; to comfort all that mourn; To appoint unto them that mourn in Zion, to give unto them beauty for ashes, the oil of joy for mourning, the garment of praise for the spirit of heaviness; that they might be called trees of righteousness, the planting of the Lord, that he might be glorified." (Isaiah 61:1-3)


None would have been saved from the “Day of The Lord” if Jesus had not held this second part back first. All would have been devoured by satan when sifted as wheat and killed by the Truth of The Law of God without The Lamb of God to cover The Law first. All have sinned and broken the Law of God, even the Pharisee would have been killed by that same power of The Law they thought they kept.


There was no Faith, Truth, or Mercy left in the land. All had fallen short of it, held captive as prisoners of satan, and none could loose it; and no open door for the poor and needy was found in it.


"And he was teaching in one of the synagogues on the sabbath. And, behold, there was a woman which had a spirit of infirmity eighteen years, and was bowed together, and could in no wise lift up herself. And when Jesus saw her, he called her to him, and said unto her, Woman, thou art loosed from thine infirmity. And he laid his hands on her: and immediately she was made straight, and glorified God. And the ruler of the synagogue answered with indignation, because that Jesus had healed on the sabbath day, and said unto the people, There are six days in which men ought to work: in them therefore come and be healed, and not on the sabbath day. The Lord then answered him, and said, Thou hypocrite, doth not each one of you on the sabbath loose his ox or his ass from the stall, and lead him away to watering? And ought not this woman, being a daughter of Abraham, whom Satan hath bound, lo, these eighteen years, be loosed from this bond on the sabbath day? And when he had said these things, all his adversaries were ashamed: and all the people rejoiced for all the glorious things that were done by him." (Luke 13:10-17)


Jesus came to His Vineyard but and the harvest was being neglected, and the stewards were not obedient; their hearts were fallen away from the Heart of God. They had stopped short and had not continued in The Lord from season to season but had sat down to only feed themselves; stuck in one season and not able to pass over to the next season.


Jesus did not come to feed those already full, or praise those sitting in high places. Instead, Jesus turned it all upside down and made those who considered themselves “wise” in God to become fools of this world and gave to the unlearned His knowledge to become Wise in God.


"And the Redeemer shall come to Zion, and unto them that turn from transgression in Jacob, saith the Lord. As for me, this is my covenant with them, saith the Lord; My spirit that is upon thee, and my words which I have put in thy mouth, shall not depart out of thy mouth, nor out of the mouth of thy seed, nor out of the mouth of thy seed's seed, saith the Lord, from henceforth and for ever."

(Isaiah 59:20-21)


You cannot reason with a foolish servant who is blinded and bound under the power of satan; unless they are converted and Jesus heals them. If you fall into this temptation, then both sides may become foolish when snared into endless debates seeking to prove who is right in their own eyes; now casting stones at each other. Do not fall away into offenses but keep within you all Faith and Mercy to remain meek so that you do not perish by the stones bound under the Law. Otherwise, if you remain in this state, you must reap all you have sown being tried and tested by the very measure and word you cast at another.


The one that is not foolish is often the one not speaking anymore, or at least very slow to speak. Only The Spirit of God speaking can shut the mouths of lions. True meekness means you do not open your mouth to backbite and debate trying to prove yourself right by your own words and works. The meek only speak of Gods Work and Promises, so that when it is spoken none can rebuttal it.


When we are out of Godly order, we end up using the Word of God and The Law of God only to hurt one another and keep all captive by satan. We get stuck going in circles inside our own harvest, heaping only to ourselves, with no corners left for others but only high piles that are left to rot.


"And he said unto them, How is it that ye do not understand?" (Mark 8:21)


"Then Jesus said unto them, Take heed and beware of the leaven of the Pharisees and of the Sadducees. And they reasoned among themselves, saying, It is because we have taken no bread. Which when Jesus perceived, he said unto them, O ye of little faith, why reason ye among yourselves, because ye have brought no bread? Do ye not yet understand, neither remember the five loaves of the five thousand, and how many baskets ye took up? Neither the seven loaves of the four thousand, and how many baskets ye took up? How is it that ye do not understand that I spake it not to you concerning bread, that ye should beware of the leaven of the Pharisees and of the Sadducees? Then understood they how that he bade them not beware of the leaven of bread, but of the doctrine of the Pharisees and of the Sadducees." (Matthew 16:6-12)


Gleaning is commanded by God because it teaches a beautiful lesson that works together for all people. The Sabbath year and regular harvest laws provided direct access for the poor and strangers to enter in and gather food. It is so one can rest from their own labors of that season while another can enter into it. The works can now follow the first when being left for the second, so that all continues forward; from season to season.


"To whom he said, This is the rest wherewith ye may cause the weary to rest; and this is the refreshing: yet they would not hear." (Isaiah 28:12)


Opening your harvest for others to glean from is for the poor and needy to be allowed to enter the fields and also work to gather the remaining food themselves. This teaches landowners to practice generosity and recognize that their harvest was a gift to be shared with the wider community. 

(Deuteronomy 24:19-22)


“Teach a man to fish and you feed him for a lifetime”.


"Go ye therefore into the highways, and as many as ye shall find, bid to the marriage. So those servants went out into the highways, and gathered together all as many as they found, both bad and good: and the wedding was furnished with guests." (Matthew 22:9-10)


Have you turned inwardly, stuck in one harvest of endless debates instead of doing as the Lord commanded to go and Follow Him? If we are too busy trying to reason with fools we neglect to continue to follow The Lord from season to season. What is left over from that? Your harvest should be to feed and nourish you as you feed and nourish others; then all works together to keep all growing in The Lord and plowing forward following Him.


"Jesus saith unto them, My meat is to do the will of him that sent me, and to finish his work. Say not ye, There are yet four months, and then cometh harvest? behold, I say unto you, Lift up your eyes, and look on the fields; for they are white already to harvest. And he that reapeth receiveth wages, and gathereth fruit unto life eternal: that both he that soweth and he that reapeth may rejoice together. And herein is that saying true, One soweth, and another reapeth. I sent you to reap that whereon ye bestowed no labour: other men laboured, and ye are entered into their labours." (John 4:34-38)


Jesus said the harvest is the whole world, stretched out, and sends His out inviting all to the four corners. We are not to be found always sitting in the middle of the field eating the fruit of our own labors. If we only care if we are fed, what good is that? If we think we must do all the harvesting ourselves then what is left over for others to come into our field and work also?


"Whom shall he teach knowledge? and whom shall he make to understand doctrine? them that are weaned from the milk, and drawn from the breasts. For precept must be upon precept, precept upon precept; line upon line, line upon line; here a little, and there a little: For with stammering lips and another tongue will he speak to this people. To whom he said, This is the rest wherewith ye may cause the weary to rest; and this is the refreshing: yet they would not hear. But the word of the Lord was unto them precept upon precept, precept upon precept; line upon line, line upon line; here a little, and there a little; that they might go, and fall backward, and be broken, and snared, and taken. Wherefore hear the word of the Lord, ye scornful men, that rule this people which is in Jerusalem. Because ye have said, We have made a covenant with death, and with hell are we at agreement; when the overflowing scourge shall pass through, it shall not come unto us: for we have made lies our refuge, and under falsehood have we hid ourselves: Therefore thus saith the Lord God, Behold, I lay in Zion for a foundation a stone, a tried stone, a precious corner stone, a sure foundation: he that believeth shall not make haste. Judgment also will I lay to the line, and righteousness to the plummet: and the hail shall sweep away the refuge of lies, and the waters shall overflow the hiding place. And your covenant with death shall be disannulled, and your agreement with hell shall not stand; when the overflowing scourge shall pass through, then ye shall be trodden down by it. From the time that it goeth forth it shall take you: for morning by morning shall it pass over, by day and by night: and it shall be a vexation only to understand the report. For the bed is shorter than that a man can stretch himself on it: and the covering narrower than that he can wrap himself in it. For the Lord shall rise up as in mount Perazim, he shall be wroth as in the valley of Gibeon, that he may do his work, his strange work; and bring to pass his act, his strange act. Now therefore be ye not mockers, lest your bands be made strong: for I have heard from the Lord God of hosts a consumption, even determined upon the whole earth." 

(Isaiah 28:9-22)


If you are stuck plowing in circles inside your harvest, year after year, how can you continue forward into the New Wine and remain sober? 


Many get stuck inside the wheat harvest of sifting due to hardened hearts, pride, and unbelief. This can be a long season full of tribulations that are for corrections so that we are not left stuck upon the scales of satan, being held back and kept away from the blessings of the wine and oil. 


"But when he saw the multitudes, he was moved with compassion on them, because they fainted, and were scattered abroad, as sheep having no shepherd. Then saith he unto his disciples, The harvest truly is plenteous, but the labourers are few; Pray ye therefore the Lord of the harvest, that he will send forth labourers into his harvest." (Matthew 9:36-38)


Jesus broke His Body and made The Way to pass through these scales and continue with Him.


The Prophets and Apostles were sent to deliver the message of the heavenly food. They did not stay only to debate the food, they simply offered what they had received and then continue forward following The Lord.


Jesus commands His to go with His message, and if it is not heard or received then continue forward and shake the dust off. Continue from season to season, plowing forward not falling backward, less you're found stuck in the prison of your own inward wheat harvest being sifted by satan over and over while the new wine languishes and the anointing oil falls to the ground and perishes in dry places.


"And it shall come to pass in that day, that the mountains shall drop down new wine, and the hills shall flow with milk, and all the rivers of Judah shall flow with waters, and a fountain shall come forth out of the house of the Lord, and shall water the valley of Shittim." (Joel 3:18)


After the grain harvest comes the summer fruits of the great ingathering in the late summer and fall harvest. The New Wine comes forth from this harvest, as it is trodden and crushed underfoot to bringforth the wine. This process is of The Lord God, and is good, even though all must be pressed down to produce it.


Jesus came and marked the time of the Acceptable Year of The Lord, that the harvest could go out to the four corners, and the New Wine to finally flourish.


"Thus saith the Lord, As the new wine is found in the cluster, and one saith, Destroy it not; for a blessing is in it: so will I do for my servants' sakes, that I may not destroy them all. And I will bring forth a seed out of Jacob, and out of Judah an inheritor of my mountains: and mine elect shall inherit it, and my servants shall dwell there." (Isaiah 65:8-9)


Jesus commanded His own to tarry in Jerusalem until the Promise of The Father comes upon them…the Oil of completion.


After you have eaten the bread you will then drink from the cup of wine. As you sit with The Lord, dwelling in The Word, you will drink of this same cup He drank as you come to the knowledge and Love of The Truth. You will understand that the first cup kills but the second cup brings forth New Life. You need both to continue, otherwise you lay dead and powerless…waiting for the second after you take part in the first. The Letter kills but the Spirit brings forth Life, and Jesus is Faithful to finish the Work He started in you, as you patiently wait upon Him.


"Here is the patience of the saints: here are they that keep the commandments of God, and the faith of Jesus. And I heard a voice from heaven saying unto me, Write, Blessed are the dead which die in the Lord from henceforth: Yea, saith the Spirit, that they may rest from their labours; and their works do follow them."

(Revelation 14:12-13)


There is a time of fasting and prayer that comes in this season, waiting upon The Lord, and The Promise of The Father. In our patience HE is strong, and this weakness is our greatest strength, because He will Work when we stop getting in the way of His Work with our own. 


We learn to lay our own crowns down and stop forcing others by casting stones at them. As Jesus said, these only come out with prayer and fasting, and the wise will fast from partaking in the childish things that many keep falling prey to through unbelief that keeps them wavering. By our Faith in Jesus, He intercedes for us, and brings the prayers of the saints unto the Throne of Heaven.


"Then said Jesus to those Jews which believed on him, If ye continue in my word, then are ye my disciples indeed; And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free." (John 8:31-32)


Prayer goes up for The Lord to now interceded and do what we cannot do. We fast and wait upon The Lord to prepare the hearts, move the hearts, open or close them. His Work is made perfect by our fasting as we no longer try to force our own works, out of season.


"But that on the good ground are they, which in an honest and good heart, having heard the word, keep it, and bring forth fruit with patience." (Luke 8:15)


Olives are part of the final autumn "ingathering," harvested right alongside and immediately following the grape and summer fruit harvest. The olives are crushed by heavy stones and weighted wooden beams or presses. Olive oil was used as the primary source of Light for the fuel in small clay lamps, providing the only light in homes after dark.


Olives are pressed down but not trodden under foot. Just as we may be pressed down or broken to peices by a heavy weight when the Truth hits us that we have all sinned and fallen short. Let us not wait to be crushed by this heavy millstone but let us fall upon the rock now so our oil can be poured out upon Him as He pours out upon us. Let the price Jesus paid be the Oil of anointing appointed for us that He offers us; for this gift is more precious than all the gold in the whole world. 


"Then spake Jesus again unto them, saying, I am the light of the world: he that followeth me shall not walk in darkness, but shall have the light of life."

(John 8:12)


Have you continued to follow from season to season, or have you stopped short?


"And five of them were wise, and five were foolish. They that were foolish took their lamps, and took no oil with them: But the wise took oil in their vessels with their lamps." (Matthew 25:2-4)


Are you going into rest with others out of season because you follow them and not The Lord? Do you have oil with you before you go to rest from your labors? Let us not stop short of the fullness of the Acceptable Year of the Lord. There are three seasons, then the Oil for your light is pressed out. Continue with The Lord and do not stop short of it.


"And this gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in all the world for a witness unto all nations; and then shall the end come." (Matthew 24:14)


The Lord sends His messengers, they are moved by The Wind, to carry His Word, and then sifted as Wheat; so that afterward they may strengthen the brethren. They are known by their fruit, and in due season they are found waiting for the Promise of The Father in The Power of the Holy Spirit of the appointed Oil. In His Power these are given The Light of God and The Lamb, and by His Rest these Works follow them everlasting; stretched out to the four corners of the world.


"And he said unto them, Know ye not this parable? and how then will ye know all parables? The sower soweth the word." (Mark 4:13-14)


"He answered and said unto them, He that soweth the good seed is the Son of man; The field is the world; the good seed are the children of the kingdom; but the tares are the children of the wicked one; The enemy that sowed them is the devil; the harvest is the end of the world; and the reapers are the angels. As therefore the tares are gathered and burned in the fire; so shall it be in the end of this world. The Son of man shall send forth his angels, and they shall gather out of his kingdom all things that offend, and them which do iniquity; And shall cast them into a furnace of fire: there shall be wailing and gnashing of teeth. Then shall the righteous shine forth as the sun in the kingdom of their Father. Who hath ears to hear, let him hear." (Matthew 13:37-43)


Do not try to harvest yourself or others too soon. Let all grow together and The Lord of The Harvest will do His Work in His timing, His Way, in season.


Often, we may try to share with others out of season, with no patience, and so we remain powerless and there is nothing to glean because we are out of timing and did not wait upon The Lord.


Or maybe we bury our talent waiting for another season to come later, instead of sharing in and out of seasons? We go through many seasons, often over and over, learning all these things as we are given great Mercy and Grace to make corrections that we may continue forward.


You are a landowner, and you are growing on your “land” many things. What is planted is growing, being fed and watered. When it is time for the harvest, we must reap what has been sown in our own land. We are forever thankful to our Lord and Savior Christ Jesus who prays for us through the sifting, interceding to confess us before the Angels of God, so we are not left to those that seek only to steal, kill, and destroy any forward progress of growth.


The oil of our testimony will not run out if we learn to Trust The Lord and not fear the world so much or run ahead of The Lord, out of season. If we are obedient to wait upon The Lord, to tarry in Jerusalem, then we make The Lord’s House a House of Prayer, before we go out from season to season.


"But when ye shall hear of wars and commotions, be not terrified: for these things must first come to pass; but the end is not by and by. Then said he unto them, Nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: And great earthquakes shall be in divers places, and famines, and pestilences; and fearful sights and great signs shall there be from heaven. But before all these, they shall lay their hands on you, and persecute you, delivering you up to the synagogues, and into prisons, being brought before kings and rulers for my name's sake. And it shall turn to you for a testimony. Settle it therefore in your hearts, not to meditate before what ye shall answer: For I will give you a mouth and wisdom, which all your adversaries shall not be able to gainsay nor resist. And ye shall be betrayed both by parents, and brethren, and kinsfolks, and friends; and some of you shall they cause to be put to death. And ye shall be hated of all men for my name's sake. But there shall not an hair of your head perish. In your patience possess ye your souls." (Luke 21:9-19)


Thieves and robbers come when we reap out of season and timing, not waiting upon The Lord to allow seasons for growth and pruning. False words are seeds of the devil, sown into the land, and we are to be good stewards over our own harvest.

 

Why would The Lord add more if we just feed ourselves only, refuse correction, and not leave anything for the gleaning? If we reap to ourselves only for self-gain then what good is that? Or if we reap to only bury it, store it hidden away, what good is that? We tarry in The Word, plant, and water, and even glean in the labor of others; but only God gives the increase and can send His Angels to reap and move us from season to season forward, and no longer backward.


"And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose. For whom he did foreknow, he also did predestinate to be conformed to the image of his Son, that he might be the firstborn among many brethren. Moreover whom he did predestinate, them he also called: and whom he called, them he also justified: and whom he justified, them he also glorified." (Romans 8:28-30)


As you go in and out of seasons, do not “take it” personally, even if it is truthfully very personal against you. Betrayal and backstabs are part of the walk, and although it is personal, do not take it within you…personally. If you are full of offense then you cannot move forward, only backwards. We must not take these things personally inward, but instead we shake the dust off. Otherwise, we take into ourselves bitterness and wormwood. We must not take things personally if we are to simply learn and leave the rest for gleaning behind us, from season to season, Faith to Faith, Glory to Glory.


"For the kingdom of heaven is like unto a man that is an householder, which went out early in the morning to hire labourers into his vineyard. And when he had agreed with the labourers for a penny a day, he sent them into his vineyard. And he went out about the third hour, and saw others standing idle in the marketplace, And said unto them; Go ye also into the vineyard, and whatsoever is right I will give you. And they went their way. Again he went out about the sixth and ninth hour, and did likewise. And about the eleventh hour he went out, and found others standing idle, and saith unto them, Why stand ye here all the day idle? They say unto him, Because no man hath hired us. He saith unto them, Go ye also into the vineyard; and whatsoever is right, that shall ye receive. So when even was come, the lord of the vineyard saith unto his steward, Call the labourers, and give them their hire, beginning from the last unto the first. And when they came that were hired about the eleventh hour, they received every man a penny. But when the first came, they supposed that they should have received more; and they likewise received every man a penny. And when they had received it, they murmured against the goodman of the house, Saying, These last have wrought but one hour, and thou hast made them equal unto us, which have borne the burden and heat of the day. But he answered one of them, and said, Friend, I do thee no wrong: didst not thou agree with me for a penny? Take that thine is, and go thy way: I will give unto this last, even as unto thee. Is it not lawful for me to do what I will with mine own? Is thine eye evil, because I am good? So the last shall be first, and the first last: for many be called, but few chosen." 

(Matthew 20:1-16)


If we are only walking this life out following The Lord, and all we want to do is be sent and be helpful, then how can we take it personally if it’s not our Vineyard?


We learn all these things over the years, but there are some seasons that test us with more measure than any prior. If we have given these Words out to others, we are then tested with the same measure to reveal to us where we are at now. If we are to be clear and transparent to our own self, are we doing what we say to others when we are faced with the same measure, or even more of a measure, from season to season?


It’s a Truth we must all walk out and face, accepting all corrections, and take Joy in the plowing forward as we leave what we take not with us personally behind us, for others to glean from.


"Preach the word; be instant in season, out of season; reprove, rebuke, exhort with all long suffering and doctrine." (2 Timothy 4:2)


"And Jesus came and spake unto them, saying, All power is given unto me in heaven and in earth. Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost: Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you always, even unto the end of the world. Amen." (Matthew 28:18-20)

Walking it out... Moments of Serendipity

Ring of Fire Ministries is dedicated to love, embrace and uplift those who are hurting and in need of an everlasting healing touch, which is authentic and pure. It is my prayer that you will be blessed, as you experience the divine touch of the Holy Spirit, letting Him permeate your soul into wholeness, through His gentle leading and embrace. 

The purity of love is the commonality the Body of Christ increasingly shares on a deeper level, more than ever before imagined or conceived.  Join with us on this journey, to not only fully receive His love to overflowing, but also in pouring that same pure love out to others precisely and perfectly while forsaking self. 

As we follow His leading with humility, anointing is released, in order His will may be done in our lives, hearts and minds, on Earth just as it is in Heaven.  As you settle into a place of wholeness, in lack of nothing, save Him.

This is your Serendipity moment… Your date with the Divine, so to speak. All are worthy and invited to this table, as we gather together of one accord, for the purpose of glorifying Jesus in the Name of Love, Himself.

Please be at liberty to explore, at your good pleasure, the various resources made available to compliment and enrich your walk with our Lord Jesus and with those who you cherish and love.

May growth be enough, while Jesus is your primary heart's desire.

Love came down… His Name is Jesus.

In His Love Eternally,

Angela ~ Marked By Heaven


For Love's Sake... 

This is the way, walk in it. Isaiah 30:21

About Us

Lacking Nothing...

It is in our weakness, our heart cries out to Him, activating the pouring of His pure love into us, restoring us in complete and total wholeness.
We at Ring of Fire Ministries stand free of judgment and have been right where you are… Hopeless, at a loss, broken and in need of saving. We understand your pain and struggles all too well. Therefore, it is our pleasure to introduce you to the One Who actually can bind up the wounds of the past and instill within you His love, for the healing you have been waiting and longing for, from the inside ~ out.
Love came down, not for the worthy, but for love’s sake. Jesus loves you with a fervent, undeniable love, not based on what you have done, but what He already did. All you have to do is simply be open to receive; freely He has given and freely you shall receive.

It's a promise.
The truth is, we all require an element of love, often seeking it from sources that leave traces of pain, void of consistent relief. However, when hearts are healed His way, it is everlasting, permanent and without condition.
Please know it is our honor to assist you on your walk of fostering an intimacy with Jesus, in order that His love within flows from your heart and out of your lips in authentic purity.
Just a closer walk with Jesus is all it takes, it is time to take that step in truth…
He has been waiting for you, your whole life. 


And the Spirit and the bride say, Come. And let him that heareth say, Come. And let him that is athirst come. And whosoever will, let him take the water of life freely. 

Revelation 22:17
