• The leaders, beginning with the team of pastors.

In every spiritual setting, the leaders of the people will define what becomes of the house Isa. 9:16. Some leaders are fire boosters, while some are fire quenchers. Which one are you?

• The people.

 A congregation that will be on fire must be one with the average member on fire for God Acts 2:3-4. Often, what we have in our churches are sincere people who have not been taught on the need for fire, and how to ignite God’s fire on their lives. So you have a people who have no crave for fire, who explain sin, have no lifestyle of prayer, fasting nor the word, but full of activities and love position.

In conclusion, we must believe God to help us build with Him a church on fire from now. This will start with us coming on fire for God, and accepting responsibility to be an example in being on fire always for God.

Prayer.

Father in the name of Jesus, I accept the responsibility to be on fire for God, release the grace for a fire-filled life on me now 1Cor. 15:10.
