Yesterday the Lord showed me a vision where my path was hemmed in. Walls of fire surrounded me, leading me down my desired path. This has been a recurring vision for me. Sometimes I get it for others, sometimes I get it for myself. Either way, it relates to the Lord's hedge of protection--the fiery seal of the Holy Spirit-- directed around the path of His children. There's always a sense that He's just anointed it that way. There's just a sense that it's predestined.
This is what the LORD says: "Stand at the crossroads and look; ask for the ancient paths, ask where the good way is, and walk in it, and you will find rest for your souls..."
Jeremiah 6:16
God has placed around each of us a hedge of protection. He's placed on all of us His seal. He's placed within all of us His Holy Spirit. And He's placed a firewall around our path. He's prepared for us all a perfect way, a place where blessings rest.
If you are not walking in blessings, than you may not be on this path. You may not be on the highway of holiness (Isaiah 35:8). You may not be laying hold of all that the Lord has for you. See, the enemy cannot touch you if you're surrounded by Holy Spirit fire. He can't get to you if you're totally submitted, totally obedient, totally sacrificed--if God has totally hemmed you in. When you're on God's path, only goodness can touch you. And this path is where all of us need to be. Pleasing and being pleased by the Father. This is the path God wants us on--the path He's prepared for us since the beginning of time!
"Now it shall be, if you diligently obey the LORD your God, being careful to do all His commandments which I command you today, the LORD your God will set you high above all the nations of the earth. All these blessings will come upon you and overtake you if you obey the LORD your God." Deuteronomy 28:2-3
"For we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand, that we should walk in them." Ephesians 2:10
