Great Statement!

“Unless we are burning we can never set anybody else on fire. We can be so orderly, doing everything with dignity and decorum but … without fire! Correct but cold. On Mount Carmel the pagans laid everything correctly on the altar ready for the sacrifice but the devil could not bring a spark from hell to light it. Elijah then rebuilt the altar, stones, wood, sacrifice, everything according to the book, and called down fire from heaven. And it came! And it comes!”-Reinhard Bonnke

Very true---we can do everything correctly and even by the good book—but if it lacks fire—it lacks impact! I’ve been someone who has done both---I’ve done things by the book and with no fire and I have done things on fire because I’m on fire---I rather do the 2nd!  Be on fire and light others up---catch the fire and burn!  Sometimes during my talks with God I tell Him I’ve tried everything else and it doesn’t work what else is there?? And here’s the answer—the fire.  To keep the fire burning takes daily fire maintenance.  Exodus 30 says the Aaron was to light the fire every morning he was to tend the flame---which means I can’t burn one day and burn w/ the same flame the next day.  This is another bad habit I broke at the end of last year---living on old fumes!  I realized to burn I had to light up every day.  With one day I don’t light up I won’t burn! Simple as that---and well let’s be leaders, teachers, friends, daughters, wives, and future wives that live on fire!
