00:00:02,380 --> 00:00:06,020
In Hebrews chapter 12, we see a great

2
00:00:06,020 --> 00:00:08,860
cloud of witnesses and a race to be

3
00:00:08,860 --> 00:00:09,320
run.

4
00:00:09,660 --> 00:00:13,260
We also see a burning mount all together

5
00:00:13,260 --> 00:00:14,200
on a smoke.

6
00:00:14,980 --> 00:00:18,900
Verse 18 begins, For ye are not come

7
00:00:18,900 --> 00:00:22,800
unto the mount that might be touched, and

8
00:00:22,800 --> 00:00:26,760
that burned with fire, nor unto blackness and

9
00:00:26,760 --> 00:00:28,920
darkness and tempest.

10
00:00:28,920 --> 00:00:31,619
The passage goes on to say of that

11
00:00:31,619 --> 00:00:35,820
terrible scene of Sinai all together on a

12
00:00:35,820 --> 00:00:39,740
smoke, and so terrible was the sight that

13
00:00:39,740 --> 00:00:43,500
Moses said, exceedingly fear and quake.

14
00:00:43,900 --> 00:00:47,340
There must have been some scene, friends, to

15
00:00:47,340 --> 00:00:50,400
make a mighty man like Moses quake before

16
00:00:50,400 --> 00:00:53,780
that smoking mount which was on fire.

17
00:00:54,260 --> 00:00:58,760
The last verse of Hebrews, chapter 12, sums

18
00:00:58,760 --> 00:01:02,280
it all up by declaring, For our God

19
00:01:02,280 --> 00:01:04,940
is a consuming fire.

20
00:01:05,540 --> 00:01:08,700
I got to thinking about God being a

21
00:01:08,700 --> 00:01:12,620
consuming fire, and that smoking mountain on fire

22
00:01:12,620 --> 00:01:13,380
for God.

23
00:01:13,780 --> 00:01:16,000
And I thought I wanted to be more

24
00:01:16,000 --> 00:01:19,060
like that mountain myself because I want to

25
00:01:19,060 --> 00:01:20,800
be more on fire for God.

26
00:01:21,200 --> 00:01:23,900
Moses was on fire for God.

27
00:01:23,900 --> 00:01:27,600
The Apostle Paul was on fire for God.

28
00:01:27,840 --> 00:01:30,380
I want some of that flame to spread

29
00:01:30,380 --> 00:01:32,880
to me, and I wrote a little poem

30
00:01:32,880 --> 00:01:37,320
which captured the burning holy desire to be

31
00:01:37,320 --> 00:01:39,160
more on fire for God.

32
00:01:40,720 --> 00:01:43,640
Give me a fire, O Lord.

33
00:01:44,120 --> 00:01:46,320
Give me a fire for thee.

34
00:01:46,960 --> 00:01:49,760
Give me your fire, O Lord.

35
00:01:50,220 --> 00:01:53,060
Let it burn brightly in me.

36
00:01:53,740 --> 00:01:55,820
Give me a fire, O Lord.

37
00:01:56,280 --> 00:01:59,120
The wood of my life I give to

38
00:01:59,120 --> 00:01:59,560
thee.

39
00:02:00,200 --> 00:02:02,900
Consume my ashes, O Lord.

40
00:02:03,240 --> 00:02:06,600
And let a revival begin with me.

41
00:02:07,259 --> 00:02:09,400
Give me a fire, O Lord.

42
00:02:09,960 --> 00:02:12,860
Give me a glimpse of hell and eternity.

43
00:02:13,980 --> 00:02:15,980
Make me a fire, O Lord.

44
00:02:16,320 --> 00:02:19,400
So my life may be burned out for

45
00:02:19,400 --> 00:02:19,920
thee.

46
00:02:20,500 --> 00:02:22,720
Give me a fire, O Lord.

47
00:02:23,060 --> 00:02:25,920
Increase my desire for thee.

48
00:02:26,460 --> 00:02:29,200
Make me a flame, O Lord.

49
00:02:29,540 --> 00:02:33,220
That draws others to you through me.
