Where Is The Fire?

[Rev. Timothy Ward]

I am at a total loss when it comes to some churches today. The people go to church, sit on the pews, sing a few songs and then listen to the preacher speak. They say they love others, but never invite anyone to church. They say they love God, but you can't get them to sing praises to Him. Where is the fire? The zeal?
People in church today have either never really had an encounter with Jesus Christ, or they have forgotten their first love. When we get born again, we are so excited. We pray all the time, we can't get enough of the Word, and we cannot stop singing and worshipping Him. What happens?
We get so caught up in the cares of the world that we don't "have time" for God anymore, until we have a crisis. I blame a lot of this on the ones in the pulpit. They are lacking in this area of their lives. How can leadership expect to lead a flock if they are not living it themselves.
I pray we all get back the fire of God! We need the power of the Holy Spirit to help us in this life. Let's live our lives in an attitude of praise and worship, studying God's Word and keeping the joy of our salvation. Don't be complacent.

Ive been practising becoming vital lately ,( not being dead), morning revival. ( confessing to the Lord and praying over the Word) and I`m learning the truths in the bible. and I ring another sister and pray with her for our contacts. and I speak in all the meeting of the church, After being one of th dormant ones for so many years Its good to be revived and bear fruit.We need the vitality to contact people and bear fruit but that cant be done alone,, but grouped together with other revitalised ones to pray and confess and to speak to people in our daily life about the Lord.Everyone believer can do this because we all have the Divine Life
