Fan The Flame

 


The Holy Spirit is not a spark that is ignited on a Sunday morning and quickly dies out. 


The Holy Spirit must be a flame that burns deep within our souls always. For in this way our hearts are passionate, our minds are focused, and our spirit is alive. 


The Holy Spirit may be extinguished by the world that we live in, but only if we allow it. 


The Holy Spirit is a spark that is ignited at the moment that we come face to face with Jesus - when we align ourselves with His will for our lives - when we dedicate our ways to Him - when we commit our lives to Him. 


The Holy Spirit, then, must be fanned for His fire to stay alive and active within our soul. 


Yes, the Holy Spirit must be fanned on a Sunday morning through our worship of God and through the hearing of His Word. 


And, the Holy Spirit must be fanned through our daily acts of worship; prayer, Scripture reading, accountability, sharing with Christian friends. 


The Holy Spirit is not a spark that is ignited on a Sunday morning and quickly dies out. For He is larger than the local church. If it is the responsibility of the local church and its leaders to bring you the Holy Spirit each week your walk with Jesus will never progress. 


The Holy Spirit must be a flame that burns deep within our souls always. 


Fan the flame - today and always. 


Fan the flame - let the spark be ignited. 


Fan the flame - feed the fire and passion for God in your life. 


Fan the flame - don't allow the embers to cool. 


Fan the flame of the Holy Spirit.
