There is power in fire because fire in any form is HOT, it does not bow easily to any other ELEMENT, rather when it is a bother to you,there is a need to fight vigorously to QUENCH IT!


There is a form of fire though that cannot be quenched , THE FIRE OF GOD.

Prayer invokes FIRE from above, the FIRE of God is ‘terrible’ and at the same time interesting to possess when Christians live holy lives and pray IN TRUTH with an urgent need for a change in a pressing situation and circumstance, the fire of God is available to destroy enemy base, the devil’s altar and evil foundations.
Deliverance: is an aspect of the result of invoking the fire in the blood of Jesus Christ to set the captives free from the bondage of the number one enemy of mankind- the devil.
Let us take a quick look at the different ways God showed Himself in the Bible and learn more from these manifestations and how we can have a better and stronger relationship with Him through this revelation. Walking in the strength of the power in the fire!

Those who know how to connect to the power within the fire use this information to advantage, it is revelation power in knowledge for them who know their God and worship Him in Truth and Holiness. Now is the time to re-connect with the old-time religion where there was a wonderful BAPTISM OF FIRE like the apostles who fearlessly served Him in unshaken FAITH ‘possessed ‘ by the tongues of fire that fell upon them.

Fire is described in the Bible as the symbol of God’s powerful presence, where HE CHOOSES TO MANIFEST Himself whenever, for various purposes and reasons.
Luke 3:- 16 John answered, saying unto them all, I indeed baptize you with water; but one mightier than I cometh, the latchet of whose shoes I am not worthy to unloose: he shall baptize you with the Holy Ghost and with fire:
GOD AS :

A CONSUMING FIRE—Deutoronomy4:23-24---,
(Leviticus 6:12-Fire that continually burnt on the altar, consuming the burnt/incense offerings)----And the fire in the altar shall be burning in it; it shall not be put out and the priest shall burn wood on it every morning, and lay the burnt offering in order upon it; and he shall burn thereon the fat of the peace offering
Same way that He burns ON THE ALTAR OF OUR HEARTS CONTINUALLY (it shall not be put out and the PRIEST shall burn wood on it EVERY MORNING)… remember , “1 Peter 2:9 (KJV)
9 But ye are a chosen generation, a royal PRIESTHOOD, an holy nation, a peculiar people; that ye should shew forth the praises of him who hath called you out of darkness into his marvellous light;”


THE HOLY SPIRIT AWESOMELY PRESENT…Matthew 3:11, Luke 3:16(John the Baptist describing Jesus the Christ and what he was about to do in the lives of people)


THE PLACE WHERE HIS GLORY ABOUNDS---Ezekiel 10:
6 And it came to pass, that when he had commanded the man clothed with linen, saying, Take fire from between the wheels, from between the cherubims; then he went in, and stood beside the wheels.
7 And one cherub stretched forth his hand from between the cherubims unto the fire that was between the cherubims, and took thereof, and put it into the hands of him that was clothed with linen: who took it, and went out.
8 And there appeared in the cherubims the form of a man's hand under their wings.


SUPREME WHERE HOLINESS IS EXPECTED---Deuteronomy 4:23-24
23 Take heed unto yourselves, lest ye forget the covenant of the LORD your God, which he made with you, and make you a graven image, or the likeness of anything, which the LORD thy God hath forbidden thee.
24 For the LORD thy God is A CONSUMING FIRE, even a jealous God.
Malachi 3: 2 But who may abide the day of his coming? and who shall stand when he appeareth? for he is like a refiner's fire, and like fullers' soap:
3 And he shall sit as a refiner and purifier of silver: and he shall purify the sons of Levi, and purge them as gold and silver, that they may offer unto the LORD an offering in righteousness.
4 Then shall the offering of Judah and Jerusalem be pleasant unto the LORD, as in the days of old, and as in former years.



I AM because HE IS AVAILABLE AS SHIELD AND BUCKLER(protector) ---2Kings 6:17 God’s protective hedge around Elisha giving him boldness and strength in the face of adversity-Chariots of FIRE and horses (verse 16-And he answered, fear not: for they that are with us are more than they that are with them)

FEARSOME IN HIS WRATH AS AN AVENGING GOD and when He is punishing the wicked (Genesis 19:24-25---On Sodom and Gomorrah—raining fire and sulphur from Heaven and He is still in the same busiess of defending his children’s enemies in the same when, we only need to CALL UPON HIM!), 1 Corinthians 3:13--- The reward of the wicked:
Genesis 19: 24 Then the LORD rained upon Sodom and upon Gomorrah brimstone and fire from the LORD out of heaven;
25 And he overthrew those cities, and all the plain, and all the inhabitants of the cities, and that which grew upon the ground.


ELIJAH AND THE FIRE-SHOW ON MOUNT CARMEL AGAINST BAAL‘S PROPHETS—1Kings 18:24b&38(God proving, and Glorifying Himself, while also disgracing the boastful and mocking enemy)
22 Then said Elijah unto the people, I, even I only, remain a prophet of the LORD; but Baal's prophets are four hundred and fifty men.
38 Then the fire of the LORD fell, and consumed the burnt sacrifice, and the wood, and the stones, and the dust, and licked up the water that was in the trench.
THE CHILDREN OF ISRAEL AND THE PILLAR OF FIRE that protected them by night during the exodus from Egypt—to protect, to give warmth in the cold nights and to give night light and illumination (Exodus 13:21-22)
Psalm 104: 4 Who maketh his angels spirits; his ministers a flaming fire:

THE FIRE IN THE BURNING BUSH THAT MOSES BEHELD, which did not consume the tree though the tree WAS ON FIRE!(God’s awesome presence) --- At the mountain of God, Horeb God appeared to Moses-Exodus 3:2

THE TONGUES OF FIRE(Acts2:3) that fell upon the Apostles of Christ in the book of Acts chapter two on the day of Pentecost, this fell upon all who were gathered there with the disciples of Jesus Christ just soon after His ascension. They thereby received BOLDNESS, EMPOWERMENT, AUTHORITY, WISDOM, VARIOUS GIFTS, and UNSHAKEABLE FAITH AND ABILITY TO DIE FOR THEIR FAITH!

All this is amazing and God is indeed a wonder because He reveals Himself to us even to redeem us.
Situations that threaten to overwhelm us should be dragged without compromise to the COURT-OF-THE-MOST HIGH, invoking the fire in the blood of JESUS CHRIST through the power within us and the authority that He has equipped us with from the beginning in Genesis chapter 1

Elisha asked for the eyes of his servant to be opened to behold the spiritual to see the shield God had put around them to confirm that as he Elisha had spoken, he had no need to fear.

Moses was reminded by God Himself when the Children of Israel were between the devil and the ‘RED SEA’ and they felt so threatened and afraid, God told him, he did not need to call onto Him, JUST POINT THE STICK in your hand towards the red sea, this also tells us we have it within our grip to take charge in EVERY SITUATION with God’s backing TO THE GLORY OF HIS NAME!

Remember, when that feeling of hopelessness threatens to crush you or your emotions go haywire, your home is in disarray, marriage is unstable and under attack, your relationship is rocky , ministry is crumbling right before your eyes, finances are in the red, even your new life in Christ is looking meaningless and it is so frustrating and the’ brethren’ that surround you are not at all encouraging (remember JESUS SHOULD ALWAYS BE YOUR ONLY FOCUS, ALWAYS!); run to His word, it is full of wisdom, reassurance, guidance, courage, power and most importantly FIRE!
