Open Heaven 11 August 2020: [Tuesday] – The Consuming Fire
Memorise: For our God is a consuming fire.
Hebrews 12:29
Read: Deuteronomy 11:26-28 (KJV)
26 Behold, I
set before you this day a blessing and a curse;
27 A blessing, if ye obey the commandments of the Lord your God, which I command you
this day:
28 And a curse, if ye will not obey the commandments of the Lord your God, but turn aside out of
the way which I command you this day, to go after other gods, which ye have not
known.
Message:-
If
you are not born again and you read the memory verse, you would realize that
the God you are fighting and resisting is a fire that can consume.
Open Heaven 11 August 2020 – The Consuming Fire
Although He
is asking you to surrender your life to Him now, He can suddenly turn and begin
to burn you when your time is up. If a person is fire, isn’t it in your best
interest to be on His side rather than against Him? As a child of God reading
this Scripture, you should rejoice that your Father is so powerful as to be a
Consuming Fire. With the Consuming Fire backing you up, all your enemies are in
trouble.
“A fire goeth before him, and burneth up his enemies
round about.” Psalm 97:3

As
compassionate as God is, do not ever forget that He is a Consuming Fire. Some
people say that the Scripture “The fear
of the LORD is the beginning of wisdom…” (Proverbs 9:10) is actually not
talking about fear, but reverence. Well, I think I have enough common sense to
know what fire can do. Others can just reverence Him; as for me, I will fear
the Consuming Fire and all my enemies had better do the same.
Open Heaven 11 August 2020 Tuesday: Reflection
The
moment fire engulfs a place, everything changes. The fire will consume some
things completely and purify some. Being the Consuming Fire, the moment Jesus
enters your life, every pain, sorrow, depression, poverty and ancestral curse
will be consumed and burnt off completely. Also, all your potential, talents
and skills will be purified and sharpened for manifestation. Gold that has been
introduced to fire never remains that same; its inner beauty begins to radiate
for the whole world to see. Moses was in exile – a depressed man who led an
ordinary life until he came in contact with the Consuming Fire. Before Moses
left this world, the whole world had heard about him and we are still talking
about him today. I pray that the Consuming Fire will destroy all He needs to
for you to be a voice in your generation, in the mighty name of Jesus.
Everything He needs to purify for your potentials to manifest will be cleansed
now in the mighty name of Jesus.
Refection
Are you on the side of the Consuming Fire?
