Fire will be called down by the prayers of the saints through a bridal paradigm, not through an angry paradigm that prays for fire in a fleshly way. Sixty years earlier, as a young man, Jesus refused John’s fleshly prayer for fire to fall on a city.
They entered a village of the Samaritans ... 53 But they did not receive Him ... 54 When His disciples James and John saw this, they said, “Lord, do You want us to command fire to come down from heaven and consume them, just as Elijah did?” 55 But He turned and rebuked them, and said, “You do not know what manner of spirit you are of. (Lk. 9:52-55)
B. The answer to praying for judgment with a wrong spirit is to become lovesick in our preoccupation with Jesus (bridal paradigm). We pray for revival and judgment with a different spirit when it has nothing to do with our ministry but is for His glory and for justice.
