God is a Consuming Fire Part 3

In our previous articles, we established something very important: when the Bible says “God is a consuming fire,” it is not about raining down fire to kill your neighbor, nor is it about destruction, wrath, or fear. Instead, it reveals the transformative fire of God for us as believers in Christ.

After the fall of man, the Spirit of God departed. Humanity became spiritually dead, cut off from the life of God. Man was left to operate only in the soulish realm, dreams, manipulations, and even demonic invocations. In those days, not everyone could hear from God. Out of all the Israelites in Egypt, God chose Moses, because His plan of deliverance had to be fulfilled, a plan that pointed to Christ and the New Covenant.

The Importance of Hearing God’s Voice

This month God has reminded us of His theme for us: “Kings and Priests to rule.” But how can we truly rule if we do not hear the voice of God?

Moses is a perfect example. Chosen by God, yet without God’s voice guiding him, he ran into hiding and lived below his potential. He was a king and priest in destiny, but lived as a fugitive and a slave in reality.

Then came an encounter that changed everything. While tending his father-in-law’s sheep, Moses saw a bush on fire. But unlike natural fire, this one was different, the leaves and fruits were still fresh, alive, untouched by the flames. Moses drew near, and from the fire, he heard the voice of Christ.

That moment was more than a sight; it was a transformation. By believing the unseen God later revealed fully in Christ, Moses’ dead spirit came alive. In that fire, he discovered purpose, received empowerment, and accepted an assignment that was not his work but God’s( start to finish by the Spirit)

The Burden of Carrying the Fire Alone

After the deliverance from Egypt, Moses carried the heavy responsibility of being the only man with God’s Spirit. Everyone came to him for judgment, for counsel, for leadership. The burden was overwhelming, and even his wife complained, running to her father for help. Jethro advised Moses to appoint elders to share the work, and God placed His Spirit upon them. But still, it was not enough.

Eventually, Jethro suggested Moses introduce laws, just as other nations had. Moses agreed, and the Law became the guide for people who could not hear God for themselves. Yet even Moses could not keep the laws he gave. For example, he forbade marriage with foreigners, yet married one himself. This caused strife with Miriam and Aaron.

God stepped in and declared: “Do not compare yourselves with Moses. You see shadows and dreams, but Moses has encountered the consuming fire. I speak with him mouth to mouth.”

From Law to Grace

But today, in the New Covenant, things have changed forever. God no longer speaks through shadows. Hebrews 1:1–2 says that in these last days, God has spoken to us by His Son. Because of Christ’s death and resurrection, every believer has direct access to God.

On the day of Pentecost, the fire did not fall on one man, but on all who believed. Tongues of fire rested on each of them, and they all spoke as the Spirit gave utterance. What Moses carried alone, the entire body of Christ now carries together.

Why does the Voice of God Matters?

The consuming fire of God is not for destruction, but for transformation. His voice brings:

Purpose and direction – so you know why you are here.

Clarity and intimacy – so you walk closely with Him.

Peace in storms – knowing He is with you.

Protection and safety – from seen and unseen dangers.

Wisdom for daily living – in business, family, and life.

Strength and encouragement – when the world says you can’t.

Supernatural empowerment – transforming ordinary people into vessels of glory.

Stirring the Fire Within

The fire of God burns in our spirit, but it must saturate our soul and mind. One of the surest ways to let this fire overflow is by praying in tongues.

When we pray in the Spirit:

Our minds are built up.

The fire flows and cleanses our thoughts.

God’s voice becomes clearer above the noise of other voices.

Jesus said, “My sheep know My voice.” (John 10:27). This voice cannot be explained or described by human words, but the more we pray in the Spirit, the more distinct His voice becomes.

Romans 8:14 says: “For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, these are the sons of God.”

Praying in the Spirit sharpens our sensitivity. His voice stands out, and this is how we truly rule as kings and priests, ministering to the Lord and ministering to His people.

Finally Siblings

The consuming fire of God is not a fire that destroys or kills your neighbors, but a fire that beautifies, transforms, and reveals Christ in us. It is the fire that makes us kings and priests, empowers us to live beyond laws and man-made rules, and equips us to manifest His glory in our generation. Hear God for yourself, there is no hierarchy in hearing from God, no one is more anointed or carries more fire than you.

He was a fugitive because he committed murdered and not because he was living below his destiny

Comprehension is indeed difficult. Would he have killed the person of guided by God? Grace found him and he discovered purpose and immediately left the caring of sheep's and fufiled it by the leading of God. Read it over and over for better comprehension. Thank you for reading it my brother

Comprehension is truly difficult, did you actually read it? Did you see anywhere hell fire was written? Ignorance is a killer and it is costly
