TOPIC: THE UNLIMITED GOD V MEMORISE :  The silver is mine, and the gold is mine, saith the LORD of hosts. Haggai 2:8    READ : Psalms 50:10-15 10 For every beast of the forest is mine, and the cattle upon a thousand hills. 11 I know all the fowls of the mountains: and the wild beasts of the field are mine. 12 If I were hungry, I would not tell thee: for the world is mine, and the fulness thereof. 13 Will I eat the flesh of bulls, or drink the blood of goats? 14 Offer unto God thanksgiving; and pay thy vows unto the most High: 15 And call upon me in the day of trouble: I will deliver thee, and thou shalt glorify me.

OPEN HEAVENS DAILY DEVOTIONAL: LET THE FIRE FALL. Tuesday 3 February 2015

-


Memorise:
In everything give thanks: for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus concerning you. 1 Thessalonians 5:18
Read 1 Kings 18:36-39
 36 And it came to pass at the time of the offering of the evening sacrifice, that Elijah the prophet came near, and said, LORD God of Abraham, Isaac, and of Israel, let it be known this day that thou art God in Israel, and that I am thy servant, and that I have done all these things at thy word.
37 Hear me, O LORD, hear me, that this people may know that thou art the LORD God, and that thou hast turned their heart back again.
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.
39 And when all the people saw it, they fell on their faces: and they said, The LORD, he is the God; the LORD, he is the God.

Message
The term “fire of God” is often used symbolically in the Bible to portray the presence of God, the power of God, His judgment, His purifying work and as His emblem of the anointing. In today’s Bible reading, the fire of God was presented as a symbol of His presence and power. It is highly desirable to witness the presence of God, the outpouring of His anointing and the manifestation of His power. Whenever God decides to reveal Himself through any one of these means, natural laws become temporarily suspended, and miracles, signs and wonders of great magnitude always occur. Consequently, the children of God should always seek such special opportunities to experience the supernatural.

However, if you want the fire of God to fall, you must be ready to pay the price. You can see in today’s reading that Prophet Elijah took some deliberate steps before He called for the fire of God to fall. First, he waited for the appointed time of worship before he commenced with the repairs of the altar of the Lord that was broken down. He then rebuilt the altar in the Name of the Lord. Next, he did everything orderly and meticulously, following divine instructions. Thereafter, he called upon the Name of the Lord in prayer and thanksgiving, and God answered by fire.

If you want God’s fire to fall, you must first repair and rebuild the altar of God in your life. You must present yourself before God as a living sacrifice without any iota of blemish (Romans 12:1), and be a true worshiper who worships God in spirit and in truth. You need to adhere strictly to the instructions of God as contained in the Bible, and then you must learn to wait patiently for God. Note that there was a waiting before the fire fell at Pentecost (Acts 1:4)

The benefits of the fire of God cannot be over emphasised. It brings overflowing anointing, divine revelation, healing, miracles, signs and wonders. It leads to the suspension of the laws of nature and a transition into the realm of the supernatural. It makes you a terror to the kingdom of darkness and a true servant and representative of the Most High God. May the fire of God fall mightily upon you today in the Name of Jesus.

Prayer Point

Jesus, You are the one who baptizes with the Holy Ghost and with fire; please saturate my life with your fire. 
BIBLE IN A YEAR: Jeremiah 26-27, Acts 20:1-16

TOPIC: THE SNARE OF THE FOWLER 4 MEMORISE:  All things are lawful unto me, but all things are not expedient: all things are lawful for me, but I will not be brought under the power of any. 1 Corinthians 6:12 READ: Bible Reading Romans 6:1-23 1 What shall we say then? Shall we continue in sin, that grace may abound? 2 God forbid. How shall we, that are dead to sin, live any longer therein? 3 Know ye not, that so many of us as were baptized into Jesus Christ were baptized into his death? 4 Therefore we are buried with him by baptism into death: that like as Christ was raised up from the dead by the glory of the Father, even so we also should walk in newness of life. 5 For if we have been planted together in the likeness of his death, we shall be also in the likeness of his resurrection: 6 Knowing this, that our old man is crucified with him, that the body of sin might be destroyed, that henceforth we should not serve sin. 7 For he that is dead is freed from sin. 8 Now if we be dead w...
