There is a voice of fire on this earth today. This voice of fire when directed by the Holy Spirit will consume all that is not of God, and will clear out everything in its path and prepare the way for a mighty, global move of God. The Church is the voice of fire in these last days. The Church is carrying the fire of God. When He baptized you in the Holy Spirit, He baptized you in fire also.
“John answered, saying to all, “I indeed baptize you with water; but One mightier than I is coming, whose sandal strap I am not
worthy to loose. He will baptize you with the Holy Spirit and fire.” (Luke 3:16)
Church you were baptized in the Spirit and in FIRE. What is fire? Fire is a language. Fire is a dialect. You speak the living Word of God, from the living God. You speak the language of God. The fire IS the language of heaven, the language of God Almighty Himself.
“Then, what looked like flames or tongues (dialect) of fire appeared and settled on each of them.” (Acts 2:3)
Tongues of fire! Glory! It’s a dialect. It’s a language. You speak fluent Holy Ghost, fluent fire. Your tongue is a fire! Your voice is a fire! What you shall speak forth by the inspiration of His Spirit, shall come forth in power and fire of God. As it says in James, “the tongue is a fire”. It can destroy or build up. It can uproot and tear down. No man can tame the tongue. When the tongue is yielded to the Holy Spirit in righteousness it is no longer a tool of the devil but an extension of God’s voice, and God’s word. Where no man can tame it, where this is impossible with man, ALL THINGS are possible with God.
THINGS STOLEN RETURNED
“Therefore behold, I am against the prophets, says the Lord, who steal My words everyone from his neighbor.” Jeremiah 23:30
Word stealers will be judged by fire. God’s covenant is a sure thing. Recession that has stolen from His people will be judged. Where it has voiced lack and decrease, the Church will answer back with a voice of fire. Who is recession to tell you what you can and cannot do? Who is recession to rule you? God is your ruler, God is your provider, God is your supplier! Recession is just a word, it’s just a “name”. Every name bows before the name of Jesus Christ.
Where false reports have stolen Gods word of healing and restoration, the Church will judge and answer by fire. Where there are false reports of cancer and incurable disease the Truth will prevail and the Church will answer these things by fire. Just as Jesus answered the fig tree… When the fig tree voiced it had NO FRUIT, Jesus answered it and said, “you will wither and never bear fruit again!” That same fire that Jesus answered the tree in, the Church will do to those things that are contrary to God’. The Church was baptized in the same fire that Jesus was. The Churches voice will say “NO” to lack and poverty, and it will not bear fruit, the Church will say , “NO” to sickness and disease, and it will not bear fruit, the Church will say, “NO” to the enemies schemes and plans, and it will not bear fruit.
“Where the enemy has stolen My Word from My people, there is a remnant called the Church who will answer by fire and judge him as it is your heritage.” Says the Lord.
“No weapon formed against you shall prosper, And every tongue (or voice) which rises against you in judgment You shall condemn. This is the heritage of the servants of the LORD, And their righteousness is from Me,” Says the LORD.” (Isa 54:17)
FIRE THAT CONSUMES YOUR ENEMY
There is no voice on this earth or under it, that can stand against Gods language of fire that lives and dwells in your hearts and in your mouth. (Romans 10:8) God has placed His living word in you as you abide in Him and continue in His word.
“Is not My word like a fire?” says the LORD, “And like a hammer that breaks the rock in pieces?” (Jer 23:29)
This fire that dwells with in you, will not only consume, but break your enemy into pieces! Those voices that face you, that are looking you straight in the face, that are saying “there is no way I’m going to move out of your way” that are screaming, “I am impossible to move, I am unmovable and there is nothing you can do” – that fire of God in you will smash them into pieces. It will break the back and the stronghold of what is contradictory to the word of the living God in your life. You have by the power and fire of the Holy Ghost the right to bind and loose, to accept or reject!
Elijah didn’t let the false prophets bully him. He got in their face and challenged the false prophets with the fire of God. Elijah said, “The one who answers by fire…HE IS GOD.” This living fire in you…it is GOD. God lives in you and you are a new creation in His image now. You are stamped and marked of God. This living fire in you will answer those things that are opposing your call, that are false in your God life, the voices that are bullying your finances, your business, your family.
As Elijah called to God, He surely answered by fire and that fire like a hammer consumed the stones around the altar and even licked up the water.
And he put the wood in order, cut the bull in pieces, and laid it on the wood, and said, “Fill four waterpots with water, and pour
it on the burnt sacrifice and on the wood.” Then he said, “Do it a second time,” and they did it a second time; and he said, “Do it a
third time,” and they did it a third time. So the water ran all around the altar; and he also filled the trench with water. (1st Kings
18:33-35)
Threetimes Elijah had them dowse that altar with water… that is a lot of water…that will have to be some intense fire to ignite that offering! Why was Elijah dowsing the altar with water, and why did he do it three times? He was showing those false prophets how sure and final Gods word is! The word says,…“By the mouth of two or three witnesses every word shall be established.” (2nd Cor 13:1) By Elijah dowsing with water three times he was saying in the natural there is no way for this thing to burn… it’s impossible… but WITH GOD, it is possible!
The same with putting the stones around the altar… what seems rock solid in your life that is not on Gods rock, that is stone cold in your life saying it’snot going to move and mocking you with its selfish desires, and threatening your call, and threatening all that God has promised you is no challenge for the fire of God. When that fire came down from heaven, it came from the breath of God, which is the same breath that you are breathing right now. That fire licked up the water, and it consumed the stones in an instant! God did not leave you in this moment helpless, or a victim, instead He has instilled in you His very Spirit, the indwelling of Christ the baptism of the Greatest Spirit in the universe, the same Spirit that created the heavens and the earth, lives in you! When you speak and release the Word of the living God your enemy flees seven ways and will ignite your enemy on fire!
MANY RETURN TO GOD
“Hear me, O LORD, hear me, that this people may know that You are the LORD God, and that You have turned their hearts back to You again.” Then the fire of the LORD fell and consumed the burnt sacrifice, and the wood and the stones and the dust, and it licked up the water that was in the trench. (1st Kings 18:37-38)
Let me tell you what, your enemy can dowse all the water he wants to try and put your fire out, but with a word from God, breathed by you, that thing will ignite so quickly it won’t know what even hit him!
I see the Church. I see the Church with a voice of fire. This voice will consume all that seems to be impossible and in its way. It’s going to take advantage of its heritage in God and consume the enemy’s plans. It’s going to consume and destroy the yoke that the devil has tried to put on the body of Christ and it’s going to destroy the yoke that has been put on people – many will come into the Kingdom of light as the Church releases its voice through fire and prayer. Many that have fallen out of the Church will return to the house of God again. They were not strong enough before to withstand the fire, yet it will be the fire that draws them again, and the Lord will restore them. They will recognize the
power of the Church again. They will realized they were deceived in walking away from The Church and fall back in line with the Word of the living God. It will be as if they had never left the house of God and they will praise and magnify His name who delights in the prosperity of His servants.
SETTING THE COURSE
Fear will not have a place in God’s people. The news is not going to direct this world. CNN is has no answers for the world, the oil companies will not have dominion, but Word of the living God is going to set the course for the world through the Church. Just as James talked about the tongue as a fire, and the tongue as a little member can direct whole ships…
Look also at ships: although they are so large and are driven by fierce winds, they are turned by a very small rudder wherever the pilot desires. Even so the tongue is a little member and boasts great things. See how great a forest a little fire kindles! (James 3:4-5)
The pilot is the Lord Jesus Christ, He is the head of Church, and He is directing His body, the Church of the living God, and the tongue
of this Church is the fire of God. The Church to the world seems weak and foolish, but they don’t know the power of the fire of God! The tongue
can set the whole course! Major coporations won’t know why they are making certain decisions that will favor the people of God, the financial kingdom won’t understand why they cancelled debt in your favor, politics behind closed doors will be confounded on how they came to a righteous declaration… but we know as our tongue is a fire yielded under Christ and the Holy Spirit we will see the course of the world system turn and burn. As we yield our tongue to Almighty God the course of the body of Christ is going to take its place in the authority and
dominion God has already provided. As we hear the Word of God and we speak with one voice and one purpose, in one accord, this language of fire no man can stop, no devil can hinder, and anything that tries to oppose will be consumed by the fire of God.
This voice of fire from the Church, will direct nations, and rule over kingdoms:
See, I have this day set you over the nations and over the kingdoms, To root out and to pull down, To destroy and to throw down, To build
and to plant.” (Jer 1:10)
As the Church releases its voice of fire that it has been anointed with, we will see whole nations turning to God. The Churches voice is a tongue, is a language of fire. It will remove what has been holding back mighty, global move of God that will sweep the earth. This voice of fire will burn out everything in its path. It will hold back and hinder the enemy’s plans, it will hold back the hordes of darkness. It will release the angelic, it will release the hand of God to move and shake over the continents, the voice of the Church will be the dominant voice that cannot be ignored, and it will be full of the power of the God.
The Lord has already made the Church a great nation. The Taylor translation says: “In accord with My words spoken THROUGH YOUR MOUTH I will tear down some and destroy them and plant others and nurture them and make them strong and great.” (Jer 1:10)
Through the voice of fire, through the voice of the Church will there be a tearing down of those things that oppose God, and through the voice of the Church there will be a nurturing and strengthening of Gods people. The Church with its voice of fire, under the leadership of Jesus Himself, and the Apostles & Prophets, will set the course for the “now” and for the years to come if the Lord should tarry.
Our God is a consuming fire.
