KEEP THE FIRE BURNING!

“And the fire on the alter shall be kept burning on it; it shall not be put out.” Leviticus 6:12

The fire burning for Jesus in our life needs to be continually stoked and stirred up. The fire must never be allowed to go out. As we continue to stir the fire, that keeps us alive in Christ, we must be able to stay focused on what our mission is. We are on this earth to be able to spread the gospel of Jesus Christ. We are here to make the flames of his name rise higher and higher. Our mission is to make sure that he is not forgotten, because if he is, it spells disaster. We cannot survive in this world without him. Our God in heaven is the creator and the controller. He is the almighty and the only one who has charge of the ending. As we keep the fire hot, we must seek to move closer to him each day on a personal level. We must not just know about him, but we must know him! We must stay in constant prayer with him and not just when we need something. We should take time during the day to stop what we are doing and be grateful to him for what he has done and will do for us. We are to praise and glorify him in all situations. We are to engage in his word. This is more than just reading it. This is to take his word and make it our lives. It must be real to us, and we must begin to depend upon it rather than focusing on the world and depending upon others. We must exercise our faith and not just talk about it. We must be faithful as He is faithful. We are to try our best to live our life as Jesus lived his so that others will have the same opportunity to accept Jesus and be saved. We must stay on fire for Jesus! There is no other solution. If we decide to do things our way, live our life as the world lives its way then we are in for a rude awakening. We are in for very hard times and situations that we will never recover from. Jesus is the way, the life, and the truth! Let the fire burn higher and higher! PRAISE THE LORD IN ALL THINGS!
