We as Christians are to keep the fire burning. Since the beginning of sin, there was a mandatory death, a sacrifice offering for the sin. Before Jesus came, the sacrifices and offerings were an atonement, a covering of the sins. When Jesus came and died he paid the penalty for our sins that we couldn’t pay.
Who is responsible for keeping the fire going? Revelation 1:6; 1 Peter 2; the saved are the chosen generation and to keep the fire burning in the house of God. It must start with you. If you’ve lived like Hell all week long and expect the fire to burn only on a Sunday morning, you’ve been badly mistaken. There is something about a fire that just brings out the people. The light, warmth, and the calming of a fire are welcoming. If Jesus Christ isn’t exalted then the fire will not burn. According to Jewish custom, they kept the fire burning for 800 years. God knows the difference between a strange fire (not His) and a Holy fire (His). The Word of God is not made to make you feel comfortable.
Is there enough fire in the church to save people? It’s every saved person’s responsibility to keep the fire going. Cutting the wood, bringing in the wood, stoking the fire, etc. If you’re not working and doing your Christian duty then you’re relying on someone else to do it for you. Shame on you! God has done everything for you to save you from entering into Hell. If all you’re looking for is a religion, don’t come here. Religion will lead you straight into Hell.
One mind and one accord. What do you think would happen if everyone in the house of God came into it with one mind and one accord? We all have a responsibility to keep the fire burning. One person can’t do it all! We have babies in the church that once God speaks to their hearts they will get saved. It’s the church’s responsibility to keep the fire burning so that God can be welcomed.
Jesus Christ is our High Priest and He tends the fire within the soul. He requires each person to tend to their own fire. If you’re disobedient to God it doesn’t mean that your fire goes out. God wants the fire to spread so He continues to chastise. The internal fire will never go out. It might grow dim but the amber will never go out.
How do you keep the fire burning?
Fire needs air and oxygen. How do you get more air to the fire? It’s not about the air but the things that are smothering it. You take a heavy enough blanket and throw it on a fire and it’ll smother it out. Sin is like a heavy blanket and it will smother out your fire. It doesn’t matter what it is or what you call it or what the world says it is. If the Word of God says it’s sin, then it’s sin.
Fire needs fuel, 1 Timothy 4; we often times neglect to add fuel to the fire. Get the bad stuff off your fire, the ashes, the sin. Then place some fuel to the fire. The Bible says wood so they had to cut it, chop it, and split it. It took work to get the fuel for the fire. Readying your Bible daily, studying your Bible daily, praying to God daily, and attending church regularly are all things that are fuel to your fire.
Fire needs attention. Don’t take your eyes off the fire. The rate at which a fire burns often deceives us. Have you ever known someone that burnt out? Don’t throw all of your fuel on the fire all at one time. Someone who has lived by a fire cooking and keeping their house warm knows you can’t throw all of their fuel on the fire at once. Pay attention to your fire and don’t neglect the fire. If one never cleans the ash (sin) off or adds the fuel then the fire will start to go out. Give your fire some attention.
