Fire goes before him and consumes his foes on every side. Psalm 97:3 (NIV)
God is a consuming fire. Hebrews 12:29 The fire of God consumes or burns up His enemies.While people choose to be God’s enemies in their minds and behavior, God doesn’t see or treat any human being as His enemy.The real enemies of God are also man’s enemies and this is all the evil that hurts and turns man against God. It’s all the ungodliness and everything that’s not of God. It’s the devil and his demons, sin, condemnation, sickness, poverty, suffering, pain, death, hell, and the grave.These are the enemies that the fire of God burns up and consumes.God is a consuming fire that purifies you by burning up everything in you that’s unlike Him.
