FIRE IS ONE OF THE FOUR MAJOR ELEMENTS KNOWN TO EXIST ON EARTH. OTHERS INCLUDE: AIR, WATER, AND DUST. HOWEVER, FIRE OCCUPIES THE MOST SIGNIFICANT POSITION AMONG THE REST FROM THE PERSPECTIVE OF SACRED RELIGIOUS WORSHIP WHERE IT IS BELIEVED TO REPRESENT THE PRESENCE OF GOD. ALSO, BECAUSE OF THE CRITICAL ROLE THAT FIRE PLAYS IN THE AREA OF SPIRITUAL WARFARE, ANYONE WHO DESIRES ACCESS TO SUPERNATURAL POWER MUST HAVE A DEEP UNDERSTANDING OF THE CHARACTERISTICS OF FIRE AND ITS SYMBOLISM, AND BE SPIRITUALLY BAPTIZED BY FIRE. BAPTISM BY GODLY FIRE ENDOWS CHILDREN OF GOD WITH SUPERNATURAL AUTHORITY AND ENABLES THEM TO DO EXPLOITS FOR HIM. SO, THIS BAPTISM BY FIRE IS A PRIVILEGE AND GREAT BLESSING TO THE BODY OF CHRIST. THE CONTEMPOARY CHURCH NEEDS BELIEVERS, LIKE MOSES AND ELIJAH, WHOSE HEARTS “BURNED” WITH THIS SPIRITUAL FIRE. IT DISTINGUISHES A BELIEVER FOR SERVICE IN THE KINGDOM WHERE GOD, THE SUPREME JUDGE THAT IS “A CONSUMING FIRE”, IS ALSO THE GOD OF MERCY AND GRACE, WHO SAVES THE PENITENT. THIS IS A MYSTERY THAT THIS BOOK TRIES TO UNRAVEL.
THE HOLY SPIRIT IS A PERSON, EXACTLY LIKE GOD THE FATHER AND THE SON. SADLY, HE IS THE LEAST KNOWN OF THE TRINITY. YET, JESUS PUTS SUCH EMPHASIS ON HIM THAT MUST NOT ESCAPE HUMAN ATTENTION. FOR, TO KNOW GOD WITHOUT KNOWING THE HOLY SPIRIT, IS TO KNOW GOD, ONLY IN PART.
FALSE AND INSINCERE WORSHIP AND THE FAILURE TO COMPLETELY TRUST GOD, HAVE PLAGUED HUMANKIND SINCE THE FALL OF THE FIRST ADAM, IN THE GARDEN OF EDEN. BUT THE LAST ADAM (JESUS), THROUGH HIS DEATH ON THE CROSS, PAID THE PENALTIES FOR HUMAN SINS. THUS, HE BROKE THE POWER OF ETERNAL DEATH AND RECONCILLED MAN WITH GOD AND MADE A WAY FOR THE CREATURE TO ENJOY INTIMATE FRIENDSHIP AND FELLOWSHIP WITH HIS CREATOR. SO, HAVING BEEN DELIVERED FROM SIN, IT IS THE DUTY OF EVERY SAVED SOUL TO SUSTAIN HIS REDEMPTION THROUGH AN UNBLEMISHED RELATIONSHIP WITH GOD. GOD IS ALWAYS AT ALERT LOOKING FOR THOSE WHO WILL FULLY RELY ON HIM. AND WHAT BETTER PLACE TO FIND SUCH COMMITTED SOULS THAN ON THE ALTARS OF FASTING AND PRAYER (2 CHRONICLES 16: 9). BY HUMILITY, THE HUMAN SOUL CAN COME BEFORE THE PRESENCE OF THE LOVING GOD DURING A FAST. AND THROUGH PRAYERS, THE HUMAN SPIRIT IS ABLE TO EXPRESS ITS THANKSFULNESS TO GOD FOR ALL HIS GOODNESS. THIS IS WHY BELIEVERS NEED TO FAST AND PRAY, WITHOUT CEASING.
Prayer: The Believers Master Key explains that prayer is a process that connects man with God, the created being to his creator. This concept links earth to heaven, bringing the physical plane to the spiritual realm, and bringing the natural soul into the presence of the supernatural God. Prayer is the means through which those hungry for God can form timeless bonds with him. It is the key that opens the door of light for the blind to see, the sick to be healed, and for the weak to receive strength for exploits. Prayer can also be the spiritual magnet that pulls the helpless to the place of hope. The first real need of any serious Christian is to develop an unbroken, intimate fellowship with God. This can only be achieved through prayer, the proven medium through which believers of humble disposition, the penitent and redeemed of the lord, in sincerity of worship, enter into the presence of the almighty God. Simple as God intended this medium of communication to be, manin his pursuit for religion. and his zeal to humanize the divine naturehas introduced several unnecessary obstacles, thus complicating this otherwise simple concept. Prayer attempts to remove those man-made limitations that hinder easy access to God a guide that demystifies the art of communicating with God.
