Fire on the Altar

Jul 27, 2025    Brandon Wall

Drawing from 1 Peter 2 and Exodus 19, we explore how God has transformed us from prisoners to priests, giving us a sacred responsibility. This isn't just about church roles; it's about how we live our everyday lives. As priests, we're called to keep the fire on God's altar burning - a metaphor for maintaining our passion and dedication in all areas of life. This message challenges us to see our daily tasks, from the mundane to the significant, as acts of priestly service. It's a reminder that in Christ, we all have a place in God's plan, regardless of our past or background. The imagery of the altar fire serves as a powerful symbol of our ongoing commitment to God, urging us to continually 'chop wood' - to do the necessary work to keep our faith alive and active.
