WIND AND FIRE

I was trying to start a fire tonight in my fireplace with only a few matches.
Well, I got the fire going for a minute then it started to die out.
In desperation,I started blowing on the wood madly to start it burning again. To my amazement the fire started up again and that was what it took to start the fire and keep it going. Only three logs that gave great heat for over three hours.

I was sitting on the couch likening the "fire" to the fervency of the Holy Ghost. The wind I offered the fire I likened to the "spirit" of God the "Holy Ghost".

Luke 3:16 says
He shall baptise you with the Holy Ghost and with fire. (when you look up fire in the Strongs concordance it means "Lightening".
Acts 2: 3 says
And there appeared unto them cloven tongues like as of fire, and it sat upon each of them.

Seems fire is likened to lightening...... That is very electrifying, powerful, supercharged.

Then the bible says regarding "Wind"
John 3: 8
The wind bloweth where it listeth and thou hearest the sound thereof, but canst not tell whence it cometh, and whither it goeth: so is every one that is born of the Spirit.
Acts 2:2
And suddenly there came a sound from heaven as of a rushing mighty wind, and it filled all the house where they were sitting:

The culmination of that day of fire (lightening) and wind (spirit) was
Acts 2:4
And they were all filled with the Holy Ghost, and began to speak with other tongues, as the spirit gave them utterance.

I believe God allowed me through my little object lesson of blowing on a dying fire, to apply it to his Holy Ghost.

In summary...... If I want to keep the fervency, lightening, supercharge of the Holy Ghost in me,,,, keep the wind blowing on the fire to keep it flaming in my life.The wind is keeping Merrily in the most precious Holy Ghost his spirit continually.
