World on Fire
Listen
Transcript:
Let us get a little closer to the Lord today and experience Him in a new way.
The Lord wants to do new work in His people every day. His ways are mysterious, His methods are unique; and His mercies, grace and revelations are new every day. Continually disconnecting from the things received in the previous seasons helps receive what God has in store now. This means one should not just dwell on the past revelations so that the Lord can give new revelations.
Luke 12:49 says
“I have come to set the world on fire, and I wish it were already burning!
This verse talks about a fire that burns, destroys, divides, and devours everything in its way. God, Himself is a consuming fire Who gives what is needed and takes away what isn’t. One should yield himself/herself to the Lord and allow His fire to burn through him/her; to burn through all the old desires and old patterns because even though not everything is bad, not everything is meant for one’s whole life.
For example, The law is for a person until he/she is ready to receive grace. So even though the law is the first step, it is not meant for the whole life; at some point, one will have to renew their thinking and tap into the grace of God.
One should renew their decision-making patterns and the basis of their life goals and decisions by putting it through the fire; including the good and godly things like the revelations that have been real and personal. One should learn to put everything through the fire and allow the Lord to make something new.
For example, According to revelations, God will burn the earth to create a new earth and heaven.
If one allows the Lord to consume his/her desires, goals, ambitions and every pattern of life and belief, it is not that they wouldn’t have anything to stand upon but that God will give them something new and fresh.
God desires that His people would be set on fire, be burning and be consumed so that there is space for something new, something brighter and something more precious.
People put their trust in other people, relationships, jobs, bank accounts, studies, etc. God wants His people to disconnect from such things and allow the Holy Spirit to come and baptize them with fire so that their hearts can be aligned first with God and be loyal to Him; And to live life the way God directs them in their jobs, relationships, finances, conversations, etc.
Instead of waiting for our circumstances to align up so that we can walk with God better, let’s submit everything to the fire of God and let the heart of God give us a fresh revelation about how to do life today.
Start afresh every day to change your life direction and yield to God’s will and His heart.

Feel For Him
Acts 17:27 (GNT)
He did this so that they would look for him, and perhaps find him as they felt around for him. Yet God is actually not far from any one of us.
Lock the Door
Matthew 23:13 (GNT)
““How terrible for you, teachers of the Law and Pharisees! You hypocrites! You lock the door to the Kingdom of heaven in people’s faces, but you yourselves don’t go in, nor do you allow in those who are trying to enter!”
Psalm 147:2–3 reveals God's heart as a Restorer rather than a Punisher. Although Israel went into exile because of its own rebellion, God did not abandon His people. Instead, He promised to restore Jerusalem, bring the exiles home, heal the brokenhearted, and bind up their wounds.
The message reminds us that while God may use friends, pastors, counselors, or loved ones to help us, true healing and restoration ultimately come from the Lord. His restoration reaches every part of our lives—our hearts, relationships, health, finances, emotions, and spiritual walk.
God knows every wound, including those hidden from others. Unlike people, who can only comfort from the outside, He sees the deepest parts of our hearts and heals completely. His healing is so complete that even the scars of past pain lose their power to define us.
The devotion encourages believers to fix their eyes on God instead of relying solely on human help. No matter how far someone has drifted, how many mistakes they have made, or how broken they feel, God is still calling them back. His desire is to restore, heal, and make all things beautiful in His perfect timing.
