Consuming The Offering

Contributed by Tim Gibson on Nov 23, 2000

How to be an offering totally consumed by the fire of God.

(1) INTRODUCTION: In the passages before us we see that when a right offering is made on the altar then the FIRE WILL FALL! Revival!

The Lord He Is The God

Contributed by Greg Irby on Oct 18, 2000

The odds may looked stacked in the favor of evil, but Elijah is about to experience the truth that one plus God is a majority.

Principles For Recovering The Fire Of God

Contributed by Richard Deem on Oct 12, 2006

Avilable Power Of God

Contributed by Dan Grubbs on Oct 18, 2005
