LET THE FIRE FALL – Pastor Isaac Olutimehin
TEXT:
1 Kings 18:30-39 KJV.
āāā Let’s note verse 38 in particular ????
“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” – 1 Kings 18:38.
MESSAGE
āāā There was a contest on mount Carmel between the prophets of Baal and the prophet of God, Elijah.
āāā There was an agreement that the God who answered by fire would remain the only living God. Read 1 Kings 18:24.
āāā The prophets of Baal prepared an altar and called on their god from morning till evening but he couldn’t answer them. Elijah mocked and asked them to shout louder, peradventure their god was sleeping. Read 1 Kings 18:26-27.
āāā When it was the turn of Elijah to call on his God, the first thing he did was to repair the altar.
āāā Remember, that same altar was used by the prophets of Baal. It had therefore been polluted.
āāā Beloved, this is the same way every life that will receive the fire of God must first be repaired.
āāā Note also that when the fire fell, it consumed the following ????
āāā Burnt offering – meaning that the offering of Elijah was acceptable before God as a sacrifice.
The wood: The wood stands for anything that can create or sponsor heat into your life.
āāā When the fire of God falls, it will consume whatever can support the fire of the enemy over your life.
āāā Wood or “sticks” produces flame and heat. The bible recorded????
“And when Paul had gathered a bundle of sticks, and laid them on the fire, there came a viper out of the heat, and fastened on his hand” – Acts 28:3.
āāā It was the heat, produced by those sticks, that pushed out the “viper”. The same way “wood”, from the enemies can heat up challenges in the life of men.
The stones:
āāā Those hard and difficult challenges shall be consumed when the fire of God falls.
āāā Hard and embarrassing situations shall equally be consumed when the fire of God falls.
The dust :
āāā “Dust” is the symbol of man. It represents every human factor that can stand against the progress of people.
āāā Remember that God created man from the dust ????
…..for dust thou art, and unto dust shalt thou return. – Genesis 3:19.
āāā Also note that after the fall of man, dust became food for the devil ????
“And the Lord God said unto the serpent…., and dust shalt thou eat all the days of thy life” – Genesis 3:14.
āāā Beloved, when the fire of God falls, the activities of the devil or serpent over man, shall be consumed by fire.
It licked up the water:
āāā Water represents every form of storm or flood of affliction disturbing the peace of your life.
āāā Read Mark 4:37; Isaiah 59:19.
āāā Remember, when the storm of life was about to swallow up Peter, he cried to Jesus and he was saved. Read Matthew 14:30.
āāā Beloved, when the fire of God falls, it will consume your burnt offerings, meaning that your sacrifice is acceptable. Read Acts 10:4.
āāā It will also consume whatever stands for wood producing heat; water resulting into storms of life; stones or difficult situations and the dust which represents the acts of men.
