Category: WET WOOD KILLS FIRE

12 And the fire on the  altar shall be kept burning on it; it shall not be put out. And the priest shall burn wood on it  every morning, and lay the burnt offering in order on it; and he shall burn on it the fat of the peace offerings.

13 A fire shall always be burning on the altar; it shall never go out.  

Wood is the secret to a burning fire. Every fire needs a wood and not just any wood but a dry wood in order to produce the needed fire. No matter the numbers of wood if they are wet, they are useless in creating fire. So, for a fire to be effective a dry wood is very important that’s why you see our aged parents trying to park the wood away from the rain in order to enjoy effective fire. This is my question? Are you a wet wood or a dry wood? 

God instructed Moses to let the priest know that there should be a constant fire on the altar. The priest need to get woods that can produce fire, it’s their duty to select a dry wood not just any wood, wet wood can’t bring constant fire on the offering altar. In order words, a wet wood is useless on the altar. It’s brings waste of effort, waste of time and kills the fire.

On the altar of Christianity, are you a wet wood? Do you keep the fire of God burning? Can your wood sustain the Spirit of God? I mean, can God trust you to extend His fire to others?

Lord Jesus, my desire is to be a dried wood that keeps the fire burning, so help me in Jesus Mighty Name, Amen.
