When the fire is on...time to cook!

Hebrews 12:28-29
Therefore, since we are receiving a kingdom that cannot be shaken, let us be thankful, and so worship God acceptably with reverence and awe, for our “God is a consuming fire.”

Exodus 24:17
The sight of the glory of the Lord was like a consuming fire on the top of the mountain in the eyes of the children of Israel.


1 Corinthians 2:9
However, as it is written:
“What no eye has seen,
what no ear has heard,
and what no human mind has conceived”—
the things God has prepared for those who love him—

John 14:3
And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come back and take you to be with me that you also may be where I am.

God's Kingdom cannot be shaken! This present world seems to be shaking more and more, leaving us off balance much of the time. As we worship God though, our perspective changes and we regain our balance. To worship God "acceptably and with reverence and awe", thankfulness is primary and essential. God designed us to be thankful on a daily, moment by moment, basis. We need to resist the temptation to grumble when things don't go the way we'd like. Remember that God, our God, is a consuming fire.
God's unshakable Kingdom is for all people who love Him, who know Him as Savior. Let God's promises ignite our thankfulness, till we are on fire with His living Presence--shining brightly in this dark world...
