Praying that Jesus Will Baptize You With Fire
Praying that Jesus Will Baptize You With Fire
Today, we will be praying that Jesus will baptize us with fire. One of the job descriptions of Jesus is that he will baptize us with the Holy Ghost and with fire. This fire has the capacity to destroy every impurity in you. God’s fire will purify you and refine you so that you can be more useful for God. Gold is more valuable in its refined state. For gold to be that valuable, it has to be refined by fire. So, when God’s fire comes upon you, the fire will destroy all the impurities in you so that you can be more valuable in God’s assignment.
Another reason why Jesus will baptize you with fire is that the fire is needed for witnessing. Acts 1:8 says, “But ye shall receive power, after that the Holy Ghost is come upon you: and ye shall be witnesses unto me both in Jerusalem, and in all Judaea, and in Samaria, and unto the uttermost part of the earth.” So, the fire that Jesus will baptize you with is necessary for witnessing. The power that you will receive comes from that fire and the fire has the capacity to spread all over the world. Therefore, the moment you catch this fire, you have to begin to spread it. The disciples started spreading the fire right from the day of Pentecost. Today, that fire is still spreading all over the world.
Jesus Can Still Baptize You With Fire
If you don’t have the fire yet, you need to pray earnestly that Jesus will baptize you with fire. You can not achieve much in your assignment and God’s purpose for you on earth without the fire. This fire can also test the genuineness of your faith. 1 Peter 1:7 says, “So that the tested genuineness of your faith—more precious than gold that perishes though it is tested by fire—may be found to result in praise and glory and honor at the revelation of Jesus Christ.” When your faith is tested by fire, God wants it to result in praise and glory and honor at the revelation of Jesus Christ.
The fire of God has the capacity to give illumination and direction. Exodus 13:21 says, “And the Lord went before them by day in a pillar of cloud to lead them along the way, and by night in a pillar of fire to give them light, that they might travel by day and by night.” The way God led the Israelites in the wilderness was through the pillar of fire. When Jesus baptizes you with fire, you will have illumination and direction. You will no longer walk in the dark. All the plans of the enemies will be revealed to you. You can only stumble in darkness. The fire of God will show you all the hurdles on your way and how to remove them.
As we pray today, I pray that God will baptize you with the Holy Spirit and fire in Jesus’ name and your life will not remain the same again.
