The Fire of God!

  • October 21, 2020October 21, 2020

Scripture Reference 1 Corinthians 2 : 4-5

 4 My message and my preaching were not with wise and persuasive words, but with a demonstration of the Spirit’s power, 5 so that your faith might not rest on human wisdom, but on God’s power.

1 Kings 18: 22 Then Elijah said to them, “I am the only one of the Lord’s prophets left, but Baal has four hundred and fifty prophets. 23 Get two bulls for us. Let Baal’s prophets choose one for themselves, and let them cut it into pieces and put it on the wood but not set fire to it. I will prepare the other bull and put it on the wood but not set fire to it. 24 Then you call on the name of your god, and I will call on the name of the Lord. The god who answers by fire—he is God.”

Then all the people said, “What you say is good.”

Life Lesson: Before we see the fire of God fall yet again upon the earth, the people of God, not even one believer in God must wait in expectation upon the Lord, earnestly seeking the Lord and petitioning the Lord for His Holy cleansing! 

Church, I believe God is not reluctant to send the fire, neither is God opposed to revealing his power on earth! James wrote in his letter, 4: 2 You desire but do not have, so you kill. You covet but you cannot get what you want, so you quarrel and fight. You do not have because you do not ask God. 3 When you ask, you do not receive, because you ask with wrong motives, that you may spend what you get on your pleasures. 4 You adulterous people, don’t you know that friendship with the world means enmity against God? Therefore, anyone who chooses to be a friend of the world becomes an enemy of God. 5 Or do you think Scripture says without reason that he jealously longs for the spirit he has caused to dwell in us? 6 But he gives us more grace. That is why Scripture says:

“God opposes the proud but shows favor to the humble.”  7 Submit yourselves, then, to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you. 8 Come near to God and he will come near to you. Wash your hands, you sinners, and purify your hearts, you double-minded. 9 Grieve, mourn and wail. Change your laughter to mourning and your joy to gloom. 10 Humble yourselves before the Lord, and he will lift you up.”

Does this Word of God sound anything like the context that Elijah was in at the time when he called upon the Lord to send the fire? Does it sound anything like the context we are currently living in? This nation desperately needs the fire of God to fall upon it! We need the fire of God to fall upon us! 

The Truth May not be Popular But it Will Always Be Vindicated!
The Voice of the Lord Thunders Over the Earth!
