Dear Kingsway Family,
Charles Spurgeon once wrote the following:
“Take care of giving up your first zeal; beware of cooling in the least degree. Ye were hot and earnest once; be hot and earnest still, and let the fire which once burnt within you still animate you. Be ye still men of might and vigor, men who serve their God with diligence and zeal.”
That is why we have decided to focus on Igniting the Fire during the month of May.
In the Old Testament, we read that the Lord said to Moses, “Give Aaron and his sons the following instructions… the fire on the altar must be kept burning all night” (Lev 6:8-9).
In the New Testament, Paul writes to Timothy and encourages him to fan into flame the gift of God which is in him (2 Tim 1:6-7). The Greek word for fan into flame is “anazópureó” which also means to kindle afresh or to stir up the fire.
"SOME PEOPLE WANT ICE CREAM CHRISTIANITY, COLD BUT nice. They want their churches to be like museums. But the church is not a freeze box. It is the Father's house. The Holy Spirit warms us up for the Father's house.” - Reinard Bonnke
Don't be a freezer box, allow the Holy Spirit to ignite the fire within you by attending the following events:
Ascension Day Service: 9 May
Mother’s Day Service: 12 May
Ladies Tea: 18 May
Ignite The Fire Conference: 19-21 May
“Do not be slothful in zeal, be fervent in spirit, serve the Lord. Rejoice in hope, be patient in tribulation, be constant in prayer. Contribute to the needs of the saints and seek to show hospitality.” - Romans 12:11-13 (ESV)
