TODAY’S TOPIC: IGNITING YOUR FIRE

Fire Scripture: Gen. 39:21-23
21 But the Lord was with Joseph and showed him mercy, and He gave[a] him favor in the sight of the keeper of the prison.
22 And the keeper of the prison committed to Joseph’s hand all the prisoners who were in the prison; whatever they did there, it was his doing.
23 The keeper of the prison did not look into anything that was under [b]Joseph’s authority, because the Lord was with him; and whatever he did, the Lord made it prosper.
Today’s Outline: MFM Daily Devotional 4th June 2020
There is a great lesson to learn today. Those of us who grew up at time when cooking was done with firewood know the importance of fire. To ignite fire in those days, people had to rely on the fire used by neighbours in cooking their food.
Therefore no food could be cooked by any family without trekking to obtain fire from their neighbours, since matches were not easy to come by. The efforts invested in searching for fire to cook food revealed the importance attached to fire for survival.
Everybody needs fire for survival. From some historical records on Peter, it was revealed that Peter was eventually arrested and locked up somewhere in Rome. As the soldiers were going to kill him, he escaped when he had the opportunity to do so. On his way out, he met Jesus and asked Him: “Lord where are you going?” to which Jesus replied: “To die for you the second time.” MFM Daily Devotional 4th June 2020
When Peter heard that, he trekked back to the prison from which he had escaped because he remembered the words of the Lord to him: “Do you love me? Feed my sheep.” What is causing our lack of hunger for the Lord these days can be found in the question Jesus asked Peter.
Peter failed at a profession in which he was an expert. Many too are failing woefully today at what they know how to do because of lack of hunger for Jesus in them. Since He is the finisher and perfecter of all things. He question that Jesus asked Peter as to whether he loves Him more than all the other disciples, more than his boats and more than his fishing, is also being asked you today.
Do you love Jesus more than the world? Do you love Jesus more than all the glamorous things that are around you? Are you the kind of person who would not go to fellowship because you want to go to a worldly party? Do you really love Jesus? It is when you are truly on fire for Jesus, that your answers to the above questions can be answered in the affirmative.
