The Flame and the Fire

Florence Adewumi

Description

An ordained minister shares scripture and other inspirational reflections that guide believers to attain a greater understanding of what it means to become a flaming fire for Christ.
Without Christ, there is no divine life in any human being, whether male or female. The eternal life God has promised produces a spark that, when fanned by man with help from the Holy Spirit, leads to flame and fire. To be a flaming fire, believers must be devoted to fellowship with the Holy Spirit, maintain a consistent spirit-led prayer life, devour the enemies, and ultimately transform into a light for their generation.
Within a unique theological exploration, ordained minister Florence Adewumi intertwines biblical inspiration with personal insights to lead believers on a journey inward to examine their spiritual paths and be of the upmost value wherever they find themselves in life. While encouraging spiritual seekers to reflect on the Word of God and her perceptions, Adewumi invites them to seek the treasure within and deploy it for the benefit of themselves and others through their connection to God.
The Flame and the Fire shares scripture and other inspirational reflections that guide believers to attain a greater understanding of what it means to become a flaming fire for Christ.

Introduction
God created all men from his image and after his likeness (Genesis 1:26–28). His intent is that we be a light to the world as pacesetters, pathfinders, and limit-breakers not to be hidden; that is why the Bible records that the whole world is waiting for the excellent manifestation of the children of God. Light cannot be hidden, as is God’s intent for believers (Matthew 5:14–16).
Having been created in God’s image, man did not evolve from the lower forms of life but was fashioned, as if by a chisel, to resemble and represent God on earth. We know from scripture that there is only one God and that we are fashioned after him (Deuteronomy 6:4; Isaiah 45:5; Mark 12:32; Galatians 3:20; 1 Timothy 2:5).
Adam and Eve, the first man and woman who were created, committed sin and missed the mark of God’s holiness (Roman 3:23). Therefore, all men made after Adam and Eve are dead in their transgressions and sin, which earned man death because the wage of sin is death (Romans 6:23). Man can be reinstated to the original plan of God at the beginning through salvation, thereby enabling man to gain access to the fellowship of the Holy Spirit. To be a flaming fire, fellowship with the Holy Spirit is imperative and not negotiable.
