Preach Jesus

He is the Consuming Fire

The Lord your God is a devouring fire; he is a jealous God.

Deuteronomy 4:24

Let’s go on a Campfire Journey:

(See Exodus 3)

Jeremiah 23:29, “Does not my word burn like fire?”

Lessons at the fireside:

#1–Don’t tell me about your past. God’s got your future

#2–All you need to do, is make the first turn; God’s got the rest 

(See Exodus 19)

Proverbs 17:3, “Fire tests the purity of silver and gold, but the Lord tests the heart.”

#3–God’s fire isn’t to destroy you—but to refine you! 

(See Deuteronomy 4)  

Matthew 3:11-12, (NIV) “I baptize you with water for repentance. But after me comes one who is more powerful than I, …. He will baptize you with the Holy Spirit and fire…. unquenchable fire.”

Luke 12:49-51, “I have come to set the world on fire, and I wish it were already burning! I have a terrible baptism of suffering ahead of me, … I have come to divide.”

(See Hebrews 12)

#4–God’s fire is calling you in; embrace the heat 

(See Revelation 1:12-16)

“From about half past ten at night

until about half past midnight,

FIRE…

—Blaise Pascal

“…I remind you to fan into flames the spiritual gift God gave you…”
