Consuming Fire by Third Day

Set this place on fire
Send Your spirit Saviour
Rescue from the mire
Show Your servant favor
Yesterday was the day that I was alone
Now I'm in the prescence of almighty God
Yes our God, He is a consuming fire
The flames burn down deep in our soul
Yes our God, He is a consuming fire
He reaches inside and He melts down this cold heart of stone

Did you realize that inside you is a flame?
Did you ever try to let it burn, let it burn, let it burn?

"For unto us a child is born, unto us a Son is given: and the government shall be upon His shoulder: and His name shall be called Wonderful, Counsellor, The mighty God, the everlasting Father, the Prince of Peace."

Isaiah 9:6

There are three Greek words used in the New Testament to denote repentance.

(1.) The verb metamelomai is used of a change of mind, such as to produce regret or even remorse on account of sin, but not necessarily a change of heart. This word is used with reference to the repentance of Judas ( Matt. 27:3).

(2.) Metanoeo, meaning to change one's mind and purpose, as the result of after knowledge. This verb, with (3.) the cognate noun metanoia, is used of true repentance, a change of mind and purpose and life, to which remission of sin is promised.

Evangelical repentance consists of (1.) a true sense of one's own guilt and sinfulness; (2.) an apprehension of God's mercy in Christ; (3.) an actual hatred of sin ( Psalms 119:128; Job 42:5,6; 2 Cor. 7:10) and turning from it to God; and (4.) a persistent endeavour after a holy life in a walking with God in the way of his commandments.

The true penitent is conscious of guilt ( Psalms 51:4,9), of pollution ( Psamls 51:5,7,10), and of helplessness ( Psalms 51:11; 109:21,22). Thus he apprehends himself to be just what God has always seen him to be and declares him to be. But repentance comprehends not only such a sense of sin, but also an apprehension of mercy, without which there can be no true repentance ( Psalms 51:1; 130:4).
