Proverbs 26:20a says, “Where no wood is, there the fire goeth out.” Matthew 3:10 says, “And now also the axe is laid unto the root of the trees: therefore every tree which bringeth not forth good fruit is hewn down, and cast into the fire.” If you have lost any passion or zeal for God, then it is time to rekindle those flames of revival. A true relationship with God is never dull or boring. If it is to you, then you are not doing something right. Your relationship with God should only create a longing for more of His presence!

Hosea 6:1-3 says, “Come, and let us return unto the LORD: for he hath torn, and he will heal us; he hath smitten, and he will bind us up. After two days will he revive us: in the third day he will raise us up, and we shall live in his sight. Then shall we know, if we follow on to know the LORD: his going forth is prepared as the morning; and he shall come unto us as the rain, as the latter and former rain unto the earth.” The condition for the outpouring of revival is returning to the

Leviticus 6:13 (NASB) says, “Fire shall be kept burning continually on the altar; it is not to go out.” The Ancient Greeks held a “lampadedromia” (the Greek word for Torch Relay), where athletes competed by passing on the flame in a relay race to the finish line. Fire was ignited with the help of a concave mirror, which has the ability to concentrate the rays of the sun on a single spot. When the head priestess touched that point with the Torch, the Flame was lit. (link) The goal was to reach the finish line as fast as possible with the

Psalm 3 says, “1 LORD, how are they increased that trouble me! many are they that rise up against me. 2 Many there be which say of my soul, There is no help for him in God. Selah 3 But thou, O LORD, art a shield for me; my glory, and the lifter up of mine head. 4 I cried unto the LORD with my voice, and he heard me out of his holy hill. Selah 5 I laid me down and slept; I awaked; for the LORD sustained me. 6 I will not be afraid of ten thousands of people, that have set themselves against me round

Romans 10:10 says, “For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation.” The Apostle Paul indicates how an individual can identify true salvation. Their heart believes in the redemptive work of Christ, that we can take upon ourselves His righteousness and reflect His nature to the world. Then, their mouth confesses this truth, recognizing the deity of Christ as being fully man and fully God, conceived of the Holy Spirit and born of a virgin to enter this world to die for all of humanity so we can be restored to a pure

Psalms 22:1-3 says, “My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me? why are thou so far from helping me, and from the words of my roaring? O my God, I cry in the daytime, but thou hearest not; and in the night season, and am not silent. But thou are holy, O thou that inhabitest the praises of Israel.” Have you ever prayed and felt like God was so far away, equivalent to that of Baal, like he was gone, in the words of Elijah, “on a journey somewhere”? Have you ever experienced a moment in a crisis or struggle

Colossians 3:7-17 (TPT) says, “7–8 That’s how you once behaved, characterized by your evil deeds. But now it’s time to eliminate them from your lives once and for all—anger, fits of rage, all forms of hatred, cursing, filthy speech, 9 and lying. Lay aside your old Adam-self with its masquerade and disguise. 10 For you have acquired new creation life which is continually being renewed into the likeness of the One who created you; giving you the full revelation of God. 11 In this new creation life, your nationality makes no difference, or your ethnicity, education, or economic status—they matter nothing. For it is Christ

Mark 3:28-30 (KJV) says, “28Verily I say unto you, All sins shall be forgiven unto the sons of men, and blasphemies wherewith soever they shall blaspheme: 29But he that shall blaspheme against the Holy Ghost hath never forgiveness, but is in danger of eternal damnation: 30Because they said, He hath an unclean spirit.” Matthew 5:14-15 (NASB) says, “14“For if you forgive others for their transgressions, your heavenly Father will also forgive you. 15“But if you do not forgive others, then your Father will not forgive your transgressions.” It is a very common belief in Christianity that you cannot make it to

Jeremiah 29:11 (KJV) says, “For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, saith the LORD, thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you an expected end.” Jeremiah 29:10-14 (NASB) says, “10“For thus says the LORD, ‘When seventy years have been completed for Babylon, I will visit you and fulfill My good word to you, to bring you back to this place. 11‘For I know the plans that I have for you,’ declares the LORD, ‘plans for welfare and not for calamity to give you a future and a hope. 12‘Then you will call upon Me and come and
