“Scriptural Text: Jeremiah 20:9 (NKJV)
“Then I said, I will not make mention of him, nor speak any more in his name. But his word was in mine heart as a burning fire shut up in my bones, and I was weary with forbearing, and I could not stay”
No matter how strong a fire is, it requires fuel to stay alive, and wood is one of the earliest examples of fuel used to keep a fire burning. In the same way, the Holy Spirit is the fire of God, and to be baptized with the Spirit is to receive the fire of God. Nonetheless, to stay on fire, we must keep the fire burning, which means we would be requiring fuel.
In our opening text today, we see that Jeremiah was about lose the fire because of the persecution he faced, but the Bible shows us that he found reinforcement for the fire by the word of God that was in his heart. This is because the word of God is a fuel for the fire of God.
Many believers have lost their fire because they have lost contact with the wood. Fire grows in the presence of wood. So also, when you meditate on the Word of God, the Holy Spirit fills you up thus increasing the fire that burns in you.
Therefore, to be on fire for God, you have to conclude on meditation as your live wire. It must be your life, your food, your drink so as to consume your thoughts. Nothing can set you on fire like the word of God. Therefore, go for meditation and get on fire!

Thank you Lord, set my heart on fire so I burn for you Lord🙏🏽🇨🇾
I have been in situations where I lost the fire because I focused on my problems rather than meditating on the word. That is one common mistake people make. No matter how bad the situation looks, we must be resolute and keep our fire burning by meditating on the word. It is our food, drink, and our life.
I have learned to keep my soul and spirit on fire by meditating on the word!

As believers we all want this, but seem not to pay attention to the meditation of the word which is the very tool we need to stay on fire. Lack of word is equal to lack of fire. So to keep our fire burning we must fight to get the word on our inside always.

The word of God can never be over emphasized, I have missed it once I understand the consequences of not daily feeding on the word of God which is the fuel that keeps alive the holy ghost in us… When your word bank reduces the fire of the Holy Ghost in us goes down. To keep the fire of the holy ghost burning is to keep feeding the Holy Spirit in us with the word of God.
Thank you lord
The Fire is the Spirit and the Wood is the Word. What a salient truth.

It is written “bread won’t feed men’s soul’s; obedience to every word of God is what we need. The soul of a believer should be on fire, the Spirit has the power to ignite him.
Therefore to keep our fire burning we need wood as the fuel. Meditating in God’s word, living in IT, feeding on IT and praying in the Holy Ghost will ensure there’s wood, fuel in our hearts to be ignited by the Holy Spirit.
