TREASURE OF GRACE WRITTEN BY DR. JOEL DABBAS
TOPIC: THE GOD THAT ANSWERS BY FIRE
SCRIPTURE: And call ye on the name of your gods, and I will call on the name of the Lord : and the God that answereth by fire, let him be God. And all the people answered and said, It is well spoken | 1 Kings 18:24
In Scripture we see divers manifestations of God. One of which is fire. Infact, fire is not just an attribute of God but the personality of God. Hebrews 12:29 stated in very clear terms that "Our God is a consuming fire." Also when John the Beloved encoutered Jesus in Revelation 1:14 he said that "...His eyes were like flames of fire." This establishes that our God is and can operate in the form of fire.
From our anchor Scripture, Elijah said and i paraphrase "Just call on your God and i will call on mine, the God that answers by fire is The Real and True God." The meaning of this is simple, there is a way God will show or display Himself by You before men that no devil anywhere will be able to disprove the reality and genuineness of God.
To me it is mind blowing and very assuring that God answers and it is even more amazingly strikingly that He answers by fire.
What did Elijah mean when he said the God who answers by fire?
1. He meant the God that shows power.
2. The God that shows results. The only one who can send the fire to change and transform is God. The devil also sends fire but to destroy people’s life: to kill, steal and destroy. But God is the one that sends the fire to transform, refine and redefine destinies. Gods fire can consume the fires of the devil.
3. Fire is a symbol of who God is – His purity, His perfection, His passion: So Elijah was on the mission of purifying the idolatrous nation and the only way is when the fire of God can destroy the altar of wickedness and unrighteousness.
The fire of God comes down for two reasons:
1) To transform you inside: Talking about you being baptized with the Holy Spirit.
2) To transform you on the outside in your physical life.
The truth is that no one, no district or place ever experiences the fire of YAWEH and remains the same.
Every fire, is lighted by somebody or caused by something. The meaning is that every fire has a source but not our God, He 'autogenerates' Himself. This means that He is God all by Himself. Elijah had interacted so much with God that he had encountered the fire form of God that is why he commanded the fire dimension of God often. Because one of the laws of the Spirit is that you can command or factor in what you can see. That is to say your revelation fuels your action and confirms your reality.
Finally, the fire of God is His energy, His vigor, His excitement, His drive. A burning, a yearning that defines who God is. A supreme, overwhelming personality that fuels everything He does. That means the God that answers by fire means God that answers by His own self.
I pray for you today, you will encounter the God that answers by fire. Any altar and demonic priests standing over your destiny and family be destroyed by the fire from Gods throne today in Jesus' Name.
REMEMBER, our God is fire!
WHAT TO DO: Ask God to express Himself to you, in your life and before others in a very special way.
