Messengers of Fire Ministries

Unveiling Deception. Establishing Truth. Preparing the Bride.

Welcome to Messengers of Fire Ministries

Messengers of Fire Ministries exists to call people back to Jesus Christ, back to the Word of God, and back to a life fully surrendered to the Holy Spirit.

This ministry is not built on entertainment, religious tradition, or soft words that leave people unchanged. We believe Jesus Christ paid for more than forgiveness alone. Through His blood, His cross, and His resurrection, He made a way for the eyes of the blind to be opened, captives to be set free, and believers to walk in holiness, truth, and obedience.

Our heart is to help prepare the Bride of Christ for the soon return of the Lord. Every teaching, message, resource, and service is centered on the finished work of Jesus Christ and the power of the Holy Spirit to transform the heart.

You are not here by accident. If the Spirit of God is drawing you, then this is a place to be challenged, strengthened, corrected, equipped, and prepared to walk with God in truth.

Our Ministry Vision

Messengers of Fire Ministries is based in Crestwood, Kentucky, where we are training, teaching, and equipping believers to walk in the truth of God’s Word and the power of the Holy Spirit.

This is not just a church building. It is a training center for those who are serious about following Jesus Christ. Our purpose is to help believers grow in repentance, holiness, discernment, spiritual maturity, and Kingdom purpose.

We believe the Church must return to the fear of the Lord, the truth of Scripture, and the power of the Holy Spirit. The gifts of the Spirit must operate under the Lordship of Jesus Christ, and the people of God must be prepared to stand in these last days without compromise.

Be Part of the Movement

This is your moment to respond to Jesus Christ.

Not to religion, not to a church system, but to the call of God on your life. You are here because God is dealing with you, and the question is not what you feel, it’s what you’re going to do with what He’s showing you.

We invite you to come and hear the truth of God’s Word, but more than that, to allow the Holy Spirit to deal with your heart. This is where things change. This is where deception is exposed, where repentance becomes real, and where a man or woman either surrenders or walks away.

Jesus did not go to the cross so you could stay the same. He paid for your freedom, your transformation, and a life that is fully surrendered to Him. And in this hour, He is not looking for spectators; He is preparing a people who will obey Him, walk in truth, and stand without compromise.

If you will respond to Him, He will change you. Not outwardly only, but at the core of who you are. He will teach you, correct you, establish you, and bring you into His purpose.

We believe God has brought you here for a reason. Now the responsibility is yours.

Thank you for visiting Messengers of Fire Ministries.

I can never be more grateful for Ted and Janet being a part of my life, I never would have dreamed that I would be under their ministry and learning to do what God has called me to do in His kingdom… This truly is God and I know it, I have always believed that God has earthbound angels who are placed in our lives to look after, teach, comfort, and discipline us…I thank God for my spiritual parents and how they are helping me to become more like Christ…I love you to more than you will ever know. Thank you Jesus for blessing me with these two angels…

Thank you for loving me in areas where I wasn’t loving myself and showing me the true love of God by your actions. God continues to amaze me with how similar our paths have been and continue to be. Thank God you have been delivered from so many of the same struggles I have. By your freedoms, I have gained freedom and deliverance. Sometimes when I’m telling the Lord how much I love him, even though my words can’t express and my actions often fail – I am comforted to know that he REALLY knows.

We were able to see the walk of Teddy and Janet Dones and saw that they were not playing a game, but were actually living what they preached. We were able to see that there was a way to walk in holiness by the grace of God. I thank God for the ministry of Messengers of Fire; it has changed our lives.

Thank you Jesus. Since that first night, I have been released of addiction of 29 years, gained respect from my family, gained their acceptance of who I am not of what I was, and most of all………. I was and still am LOVED. For that I am grateful. I met the one man and woman that has truly lived as how the bible instructs. Love and love some more. I might have been from their loins but they have treated me as if I was. I call them mom and dad from my heart and out of wanting to not out of obligation or respect, but out of the best lesson that they have shown….. Love.

So many blessings have come into my family’s life since giving more time to God and less time to self. I’m definitely not close to being perfect in my walk but I’m progressing more and more on a daily basis…God has blessed me with a Godly husband, who isn’t perfect but had not given up, two beautiful smart children, and one on the way, a place to live, food in my fridge, money in my pocket…..so many more blessings. If I’ve learned anything during my walk is to never quit even when you can’t see what the next step is.

Pastor Teddy and Janet have dedicated countless hours to helping me walk in true freedom, pouring their life and knowledge of the Word into me. No matter what time of the day or night I know I can always call. With their help and dedication, I am walking in victory and am becoming more than a conqueror through Christ Jesus.

When I first experienced the Anointing I couldn’t believe the feeling, the power that came into my body from his was just so awesome and powerful. I never knew that there was such a feeling. There are two people I have to thank for that. Maybe the most important one is GOD. But secondly if it hadn’t been for Teddy that night, I’d still be in that same routine that I was before. But now I live for the LORD.

I am praying about everything to work out in God’s will. So all of you pray for me because I need it more than ever at this time. But I know things will work out as long as I give it to God and let Him deal with it.

The Lord used you to speak to both of us and I’m grateful that we had some time to fellowship together. The Lord used you in my life to challenge my walk with Him, to search my heart and to die to my flesh. I want to encourage you that you spoke words of life to my spirit, which is hungering to serve God in righteousness. Thank you for being faithful and obedient to the Lord.
