Flame of Fire World Headquarters!

Hello Beloved Readers,

I wanted you to know that Flame of Fire Ministries now has a new World Headquarters. I laugh as I write this on the blog if you would see the size of the building in person. It is more like a stable and a manger in size, but despise not the days of small beginnings!

Flame of Fire Ministries was birthed from the IAM Center of Tucson. That is the ministry God had us begin here in Tucson, Arizona when God called me out from being a full time Pastor of a local church in Port Richey, FL to this new role as a missionary and a to raise up a prophetic army of the Lord.

The Lord told me not to build a church or a ministry, but to establish the Kingdom of God in men's heart. This came about one day when my wife and I were praying while driving through the streets in the city of Tampa. We came to the end of a road where we found McDill Air Force Base. We drove to the entrance of the base and since we were non-military personnel we could not go any further.

We turned around our van to go back another direction when the Holy Spirit spoke and said to us, "you have come to the end of the road of Pasturing as you have known. I am changing your direction. He then impressed upon me that we were to start something different called Spiritual Training Bases for His Kingdom to include 24/7 prayer centers to pray for different regions, and a full time teaching and equipping school for all generations. This school would raise up and "end time prophetic intercessors and ministers" as an army of the Lord.

In 2004 Donna, I and our family moved to Tucson Arizona after God opening the scriptures in Hosea 2:14-26 to us. We knew we had to come here to establish our first base of training called the IAM Center of Tucson.

For one year after we moved to Tucson, God did not allow me to do anything. Not one door opened in our community to do this work. Not one Pastor or church was interested in building true love bond covenant relationships. The Pastors had to much on their plate to see why God sent us here to support and lift up their arms in prayer. Many told me it was a nice idea and some even said they would come. Yet for a whole year God did not open one door for us to start.

So I spent a whole year 0f 2004-2005 walking in the desert where the Lord began to make the message found in Hosea 2:14-26 my life's experience. Please read the scriptures yourself to understand the meeting. The Lord told me anyone can preach the message but not everyone could understand how the messenger of God's word, and the message itself must be one, even like John the Baptist was the perfect message of repentance, and Jesus Christ Himself the perfect message of salvation.

In 2005, The Lord had me to begin planning to start for our first International Accelerated Missions Discipleship Training School. We had no money and just our little group of people and no place to meet. So we met in Coco's restuarant with nothing but the manuals to train. We planned as if we had everything. We trained teachers to teach the classes and even put the curriculum together. We made a manual on how to start a school. We advertised set up recruitment times and registration times not even having a place to teach. 2 weeks before school started, God opened up a building for us with the first months rent free.

We had our first IAM Discipleship Training School starting in Septemberwith our first mission trip to Piedras Negras, Mexico in March 2006. It was a great first mission trip to take our first 4 graduates to learn about missions in Mexico. In that trip I met a Pastor from Longmont, Colorado named Elias and Pastor Glen from California. These two precious men of God took our little school and taught us about missions work. We were blessed to know and labor with them.

In 2006, Pastor Elias took us on our second trip to Muquiz Mexico to preach at an Assembly of God Church there, and to minister to the Peekapoo Indian Tribe as well. This too was an excellent experience for our second class of 6 students.

It was at that meeting, Pastor Elias felt to do a "revival meeting" in the town of Milliken, Colorado where he got saved. He asked me to bring a team of intercessors up a week early to pray before and during these meetings for the Lord to change the hearts of the community to meet Jesus Christ. We were also to have Pastor prayer meetings from the area every morning and afternoon for these meetings.

At the first meeting not one person showed up for prayer, and we didn't know what to do, but the Lord told us just to worship Him and listen. We did that, the next day 5 intercessors from other churches came to join us in prayer. They didn't even know there was a tent meeting going on in Milliken or a call to prayer. The Holy Spirit just told them to come to this building to pray and they found us. The next day there were 20, and by the end of the first week over 75 intercessors from Northern Colorado came to pray for this tent meeting.

The tent meeting started out slowly with about 40 people but by the end of the week it was over 200. I was asked to preach on Saturday night. Friday in prayer, we got a breakthrough about the youth in that region being held hostage by the enemy in the church. God showed us that we, God's leaders were keeping them from Him by putingt them in youth groups, Sunday School, Children church, but we never allow them to be with Him in His presence in the services. Our goal was to get them out so the adults could be blessed and hear the word. This broke our hearts to see what we had done. I know I had done that as a Pastor as well.

There is nothing wrong with having those ministries for children, but we were not supposed to replace them knowing the Lords' presence in our services or for them to spend time with Him with us! We repented for this sin for ourselves and the region. We stood in the gap for the pastors and leaders of the Northern Colorador region and promised God we would not do that to the youth anymore.

On the last Saturday night of the revival, I preached one of the hardest messages on the spirit of religion that is controlling much of the present church today. It was so strong not a person moved or stirred. I thought for sure that when I gave the alter call every adult would run to the alter.

Before I tell you the rest, let me write this to you. In the morning of this Saturday I got a call from a precious sister in Christ who didn't know about the meetings we were having. She said God told her last night to tell me when I preach tonight to call down the "Fire of God."

Later in that afternoon another sister on the other side of the country received the exact same word for me and told me I had to "call down the Fire of God" at tonight's meeting and I would know when.

The time came for me to pray that prayer on that Saturday night. As I preached the message of repentance from dead religion many hearts were convicted and I gave the alter call to come.

Beloved Reader, even though there was a very heavy conviction upon every single person there not one adult came to the alter. After a few minutes of repeating the call to come a miracle happened. All the youth at this meeting which was about 25 of them or more ran to the alter crying and repenting of their sins and their need for God.

The message I preached from the LOrd was to free the adults of the religious walk with God they had that was opposing the true move of God instead of having a real relationship with Him. God was speaking to every adult there personally to repent, but they would not move!

However, within minutes the youth ran to the alter in tears and brokenness. They came with true humility to change before the Lord. When they came and wept at the alter I knew it was time to pray,"God send you fire."

The Fire of God came upon these youth and they wept, cried and then began to pray for one another and minister in the gifts of the Holy Spirit that they never experienced before. There were words of wisdom, knowledge, prophecy, speaking in tongues and more. In that moment, Flame of Fire Ministries was born though I did not know that then.

The Host Pastor's grand son was weeping and laughing at the same time and cried, " God is killing me, but He is loving me at the same time, God is real!" From that day, God has had us share that testimony and all God has done whereever he sends us. We have seen that Fire of God presence fall from city to city and nation to nation.Just read the testimony page on our website or look at the pictures on the side of our home page and see for yourself how God is making "His ministers a Flame of Fire."

We shared this word in cities starting in Greeley, Colorado in 2007 where 60 youth came to our second conference at the Seventh Day Adventist Church. The fire of God fell even hotter and came upon the youth, and they too ministered like seasoned veterans as they did at the tent meeting.

A 14 year old girl preached a prophetic message to cause all the parents there to repent. 7 and 8 years old girls got the "spirit of tear" (travailing in the Spirit) of real repentance for the adults, and they became instant intercessors. A 16 year old boy, preached and prophesied to all of us and the older generation and many other teens ministered under the power of God. It was one of the deepest move of the Holy Spirit in youth I had ever seen!

We invited a dance and flag group to come and they were so touched that they gave me their brand new fire flag they just purchased and told me I had to wave it in the nations.Then all the youth there got around me and prayed and prophesied over me for over 45 minutes. They spoke words to me only God spoke to me and I told no one about. They ministered to me prophetically with a flame of fire in accuracy as if some of the biggest prophets in Christianity were ministering to me.

In this move of God, Flame of Fire Ministries was born. This new work grew so fast and sent us to the State of Virginia to do our first National conference. The Spirit of intercession swept these meetings and many were set free and set on fire for God. God sent me to Albany, New York to minsiter at our IAM Headquarters at a conference called a "burning heart" and again the Fire of God came in our meetings.

We are now bringing this Flame of Fire to Tijuana Mexico, San Diego,California, and Loveland Colorado, Tucson Arizona and to the nations. We were blessed to go to Johannesburg South Africa to Better Life Ministries and God's Fire came to this precious praying church. We experienced a deep work of God there with the church and became one with them. The prayer meetings were powerful in the Flame of God and Pastor Chetachuckwu is one of the pillars God is raising up in South Africa for the African Continent

Flame of Fire has reached churches and leaders through the Flame of Fire website and now has reached over 82 nations and 1800 cities in the world. We continually recieve invitations to come to Pakistan, India, Nepal, Nigeria, Uganda, Kenya, Cameroon, the Philipene Islands and other countries as well. We also have established Ambassadors in Kenya with Harvest Miracle Center Pastor Abraham Omanyo and in Uganda with Pastor John Ssebuliba at Disciples on the move ministries.

God has birthed a Network of Prayer through Flame of Fire ministries with prayer warriors over the world praying for the prayer request we receive every day. Flame of Fire also has a Network of Ministers committed to serve each member minister as their own flesh and blood to help each other with whatever each one has to give so we can do the will of God.

We have United States Ambassadors in Virginia, Arizona and Pennsylvania, and International Ambassadors in Kenya, Uganda and South Africa. We are also working with Pastors in India, Nepal, Mauritius and Mexico to develop more of this network in 2010. Also in this new year we will be providing membership into the Flame of Fire Ministers Association providing licensing and ordination for all that meet the requirements for ministry in their state and nation.

Look at what is come forth by the hand of God from the baby the IAM Center produced in Milliken Colorado! This baby has now become the mama ministry to those very works. The Flame of Fire Ministries has over sight of the Southern Arizona and Northern Colorado IAM Prayer and Training Center and the Arizona Network of Prayer.

Beloved Reader, Despise not the day of small beginnings. We are not a big ministry or work. We don't have large resources or facilities, but we do have a GREAT BIG GOD who can speak to those things that are not, as though they are. All of this is not to see how great "Flame of Fire" is and what we have accomplished. WE have accomplished nothing! If anything has been done it is because of God alone. We can take no credit. We just did what God required of us and that is it!

Now you understand why God has helped us open our very humble new World Headquarters. It is a very tiny place so far perhaps so God can get all the Glory. He doesn't need big things to do big works, just people who will believe He is a big God. I am grateful to God to give us offices now to do His work out of, and a place to pray for our city. Jesus was born in a stable and in a manger, was He not?

We also able to rent an adjacent building to house the Southern Arizona Prayer and Training Center and the Arizona Prayer Network for the regional prayer groups to come together.

I hope you rejoice with us at our" little stable and manger"pictures at the top of this blog. No laughing now:) I thank God for these humble beginnings and for what He has built across the globe through this little work.

To God be the Glory and I look forward to see what God is going to do in your life and in His church in 2010!

God bless each and every one of you!

In His love always,

Rev. Henry Falcone
