Open Heaven 3 June
MEMORISE: And Nadab and Abihu died, when they offered strange fire before the Lord. Numbers 26:61
BIBLE READING: HEBREWS 13:8-13
In the physical realm, there are different types of fire used for varying constructive or destructive purposes. This is also true in the spiritual realm where fire could be godly or ungodly, constructive or destructive. The Holy Spirit is the source of godly fire. Samson tearing a lion apart in Judges 14:5-6 is a classic example of what you can do when the Spirit kindles godly fire inside you.
When He kindles fire in you, supernatural power comes and you are able to overcome your enemies. On the other hand, an ungodly fire produces a desire to perform acts (or an act) that negates God’s will and commandments. It destroys completely. It can also be an ungodly act in itself as we see in the case of Nadab and Abihu who died because they offered strange fire before the Lord.
“And Nadab and Abihu died, when they offered strange fire before the Lord.” Numbers 26:61. This ungodly fire made Samson go after strange women. It destroyed him. Some years ago, one of my spiritual sons was confronted with a strange fire of erotic emotions with his secretary. He sought spiritual counsel from me and I told him plainly to sack her immediately. He did and the strange fire was quenched.Open Heaven 3 June

When you allow strange fire to glow, it will destroy. This is why the Lord wants you to beware of strange fire. Strange fire could be unbiblical worship. For example, an intending couple should not spend nights together alone in the name of a prayer vigil. It is strange fire when a lady comes to minister at the altar with sensitive parts of her body exposed. A pastor that introduces the blood of animals as a means of anointing during deliverance services is also dealing in strange fire. It destroys.
Read the Bible and crosscheck your life today for if there is, put it out from the source any such appearance immediately.
PRAYER POINT: Father, deliver your Church from strange fire, in the mighty name of Jesus.
