Wisdom For The Day Devotional 29 April 2024 By Bishop Mike Okonkwo – Keep The Fire Burning
TOPIC: Keep The Fire Burning (TREM Devotional 29 April 2024)
“The fire shall ever be burning upon the altar; it shall never go out.” Leviticus 6:13 (KJV)
MESSAGE:
According to the scriptures, the fire upon the altar shall not be put out. It shall ever be burning upon the altar. The Word of God is telling you that your fire ought not to go out. The fire should be burning. In other words, the fervency, the zeal, and the passion must continue. It must not stop. Your fire must ever be burning!
It was written concerning Christ in the scriptures: “For the zeal of thine house hath eaten me up; And the reproaches of them that reproached thee are fallen upon me.” Psalm 69:9 (KJV). When His disciples saw Him go into the Temple to drive out those who were merchandising in the temple, they remembered what was written prophetically concerning Him. John 1:17 (KJV).
Are you still eaten up by the zeal for the things of God? Is the zeal still there? Keeping the fire burning requires that we continue steadfastly in what we have been taught. It requires that we constantly participate in fellowship with fellow believers. “Then they that gladly received his word were baptized: and the same day there were added unto them about three thousand souls. And they continued steadfastly in the apostles’ doctrine and fellowship, and in breaking of bread, and in prayers.” Acts 2:41-42 (KJV).
It is time to let the fire return. You are a part of God’s global agenda. You cannot afford to be docile and lukewarm. I declare that you will take your place. You will recover all!
