BARBEQUE IS HEALTHY - SISTER JERNIA

JOB 23:10 NLT

“But he knows where I am going. And when he tests me, I will come out as pure as gold."

See fire as an opportunity to touch God's heart. You can never offer true worship until you understand that your troubles are simply a FIRE LIT to give you an opportunity to burn for God. If you understand that you're a living sacrifice then you won't run away from troubles.

Worship the Lord in the middle of your fire. If you never have been in pain to the point of despair then you have never worshipped God because it's in this place that you can look up and say that father I belong to you, till you get to that level you have never worshipped God, that has the capacity to move God.

When a fire is lit and chicken is turned it's not burning but cooking but when God puts us on His altar He's not turning us to cook but burn us so that those things that do not belong to Him will remain behind and that's why the scripture says that you shall be purified in fire. It's in our burning that we encounter God because it's only in the burning that we draw closer to God that's why the closest angels to God are burning ones called ' seraphims' and they are the ones who offer worship day and night.

True worship is birthed out of fire. That is why even many of the worship songs we listen to today are a result of pain and fiery furnace that fathers and mothers of faith have been through. Paul and Silas worshipped God in chains and shackles. Abraham worshipped God while just about to slay his own son at the altar.Job worshipped God when he lost everything.Lord Jesus worshipped God by fulfilling God's purpose at the cross.

Pain and fire.

Dear all,we have never truly worshipped God if we have never been through fire and Don't allow the fire to embitter you but let it turn you into a worshipper.

Praise God.

PRAYER: FATHER HELP US TO EMBRACE FIRE IN ORDER TO UNDERSTAND THE PROCESS THAT YOU ARE LEADING US THROUGH. MAY IT BRING GLORY TO YOUR NAME.

IN JESUS MIGHTY NAME.

AMEN!!
