Many Christian always pray for the fire of God to be in them...
Pray for the fire of revival...Hoping the churches of the nation can be saved...
That's a great prayer and desire...
We also hope that God can use us to do wonders and miracles...
These are all right, not wrong...
As we can see in the Bible...
Right after Jesus is baptized and filled by the Holy Spirit...
He was brought by the Holy Spirit to the wilderness...
To be tested...
He had to go through all the trials and tries...
Tempted by the Devil...
For 40 days...
That shows us that...
When we pray for the fire of God..
We are asking God to bring us to the wilderness...
Fire of God=Wilderness
God had to bring us to the wilderness so that we can be changed...
Train us to be like Him...
So that when He give us the fire...
We are able to hold it..
And make it keep burning in us...
However, when we are in the wilderness...
We always pray to God : Oh God, please help me...I don't want to be in this situation..Please get me out of here...
This is because we don't want to be trained and changed...
We prefer to live a more comfortable and easier life...
To get out of the wilderness...
There is only a way...
Pray to God : What You want to teach me?
We must not give up or blame God no matter what trials we would encounter...
If not, we will learn nothing through that...and suffer for nothing...
When we had the fire in us...
Others will be able to see the true God in us...
Fire is contagious...
That means, people around us will also be affected by us...
They will be changed and turn to God...
When revival comes, we don't have to do anything...
God will attract the people to Him...
People will repent and turn to Him themselves...
Remember...No matter what happened...
Even if it is ridiculous...
We must always trust in Him...
Don't give up...
God will never let us go through what we can't bear...
God allows us to go through that , is because He believe us...
Train us to be like Him...
So that when He give us the fire...
We are able to hold it..
And make it keep burning in us...
However, when we are in the wilderness...
We always pray to God : Oh God, please help me...I don't want to be in this situation..Please get me out of here...
