We grow when, in the midst of Fiery Trials, we cling to relationship with God rather than religion. Power comes from having faith over fear. Love captures law when trials happen. Fiery darts may fly when greed rules the thoughts of men. But when we operate from a place of generosity, the doors of heaven are opened. In times of trouble our focus should be on fasting and praying rather than feasting and playing.
In year 2020, God has commanded the attention of the entire world simultaneously to serve notice on mankind. He has seen the darkness that man finds himself in today, and says it is time that the Light of His Word is established over this world. He seizes the single-minded focus of the world towards Him. With a focus on God, He becomes our entertainment through His Prophets, not the performers of the day or the vices of the past. With this new focus comes direction from the master. It is now time that man maneuver in unison to seek God’s divine will for the earth and for mankind.
The darkness of fiery trials is the best place to find the Light of God. No more fruitless expectations that we will return to life when man had dominion over the world and its animals. Do not fear that man has squandered his dominion, but instead be glad that darkness has been overthrown, thus allowing divine light to arise from its void.As we live in the Light of God, life is fixed as our focus changes. By placing our minds on God in the midst of fiery trials, we are empowered with a new strength. This strength gives us power to stand firm in faith, while being courageous during the storms of life.

4 And whatsoever house ye enter into, there abide, and thence depart.
5 And whosoever will not receive you, when ye go out of that city, shake off the very dust from your feet for a testimony against them.6 And they departed, and went through the towns, preaching the gospel, and healing every where.”
