THE GOD THAT ANSWERS BY FIRE
THE GOD THAT ANSWERS BY FIRE || DAY 2 || NSPPD || 28TH JANUARY 2025
When the fire fell the stones, the dust and the water were consumed and the nation bowed: as oaks of righteousness we declare "Obey by fire", because everything has obeyed and we are in our answers.

Summary
The service opened with the worship song "We know You are the rewarder of those who diligently seek You... all power is in Your hands, with You nothing is impossible", and the chant "What You cannot fix, what You cannot do, what You cannot solve does not exist." Pastor Jerry then told (in a recorded opener, replayed at the close of the stream) two wonders from three weeks earlier: a woman confirmed clinically dead whose daughter, at a word of knowledge, turned up the phone volume beside her during the 7am prayers; she came back to life five minutes after the prayer ended. A second wife whose husband had brain cancer surgery told the doctor, "What God cannot do does not exist"; the husband woke when she called his name, and as staff removed the window blinds to carry his stretcher out, he stood up on his feet. "We are in a season of a revival of the strange acts of God."
Day 2 of "The God that answers by fire" was built on Elijah at Carmel. Each round began "My Father, when the fire fell...": the fire consumed the stones (every hardness around my life), licked up the dust, swallowed the water that opposed the fire, made the whole nation bow, and the prophets of Baal who were "saying what You are not saying" were all killed. "The Lord my God is a consuming fire: when I call fire, I am calling You." Before that came a section of the Lord roaring over lives, opening doors and gates, overturning, with His words no longer prolonged.
The second movement was Isaiah 61:3: "that they may be called oaks of righteousness, the planting of the Lord." The church declared "I am an oak of righteousness": rooted in life, destiny, purpose, children, business and health; strong, resilient, resisting negativity as the oak resists disease. He linked it to Abraham at the oaks of Mamre and to Gideon under the oak at Ophrah, where a weak, fearful man became a deliverer. Then "in the order of Peter" the angel said "follow me" and gates opened, with "pray and move: let your leg enter there in the spirit." The climax was the cry "Obey by fire!" answering Pharaoh's question "Who is the Lord, that I should obey Him?": "I will reply you not with English... I will reply you with evidence." He declared everything has obeyed, "it will not be up to 30 minutes", "before the next 24 hours."
Words of knowledge followed (seizures, brain growths, cancers, paralysed hands, a stolen wedding ring), then impartations with hands lifted and a symbol of each person's work raised: sensitivity to destiny direction, the mantle of exception, the mantle of consistency, being highly sought after, territorial keys, the overtaker mantle, the garment of relevance, and "nations will clap to your God". He announced tomorrow's first mercy prayer after the fast ("Oh Lord show me mercy, the time is now") and led a seed of thanksgiving and the declaration "Glorious things are spoken of me."
The testimony reel showed inanimate objects working again after Friday's word, a UK care worker spared from dismissal, a son healed of T-cell leukemia, and a former Muslim broadcaster healed of nine months of bleeding who turns 50 today. The service ended with salvation, three communions, announcements for the NSPPD Nigeria prayer conference, short words from the co-pastors, and Psalm 91.

Testimonies played / recapped
- Opener (recorded, replayed at the end): three weeks earlier a woman was confirmed clinically dead; her daughter, at the word of knowledge, placed the phone beside her during prayer; nothing happened at first, then five minutes later she came back to life. Another woman's husband had brain cancer surgery that hit sensitive areas; the doctor said he would not be conscious for six months and might never walk. She answered "What God cannot do does not exist", called his name a few hours later and he opened his eyes; when staff removed the window blinds to take his stretcher out because the door was too narrow, he stood up.
- Inanimate objects (after Friday 24 January's word): a microwave; a late father's tablet, dead for over five years, charged to 100%; a mini chopper; an electric jug; a fan that smoked at first, then ran with no smell; a Samsung phone with a broken screen, dumped for over two years, now working perfectly.
- Olua Fumo (name uncertain), North Wales, UK: in a toxic health and care workplace, suspended on 14 August 2023, the day before her six-month probation was to be confirmed. Sisters Aisha and Jam (Muslim converts in NSPPD) told her to keep bringing the documents to the fire altar. On Tuesday 31 October 2023, about 6:55am after the second sharing, Pastor Jerry said: you face a disciplinary committee today, it will end in your favour, nothing was found. Her manager then called: the regional manager had decided not to sack her. She came to the altar in person.
- Mother of a son with T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (diagnosed November 2023): ICU, sepsis, constant fevers, suppressed white count. She heard "bone marrow suppression, be reversed" and screamed; counts rose within two days. Around the 2024 Houston conference, words on leukemia came; within two days the leukemia cells were gone. Discharged from ICU on a Friday, home by Tuesday; off antipsychotic, anti-seizure, peripheral neuropathy and pain medicines, walking well, back in school with excellent grades.
- Former Muslim broadcaster: heavy, painful cycles since her teens; fibroids diagnosed in 2010; from 16 September 2020 she bled daily for nine months, PCV down to about 11%, adenomyosis, a biopsy read as malignant; told to have a hysterectomy or live only three years. She had paid native doctors, including a loan for a cow for a "spirit husband". A friend sent her the link around March 2021. In May 2021 came the word: "a woman in your late 40s, bleeding for the past nine months, doctors say the only solution is removal of your womb: heaven says no", then "I can see you, you just jumped up from your bed." She sowed a seed, slept deeply for hours, and the bleeding stopped within 24 hours; her cycle has been normal for five years. After special prayers for businesses and careers following a 2022 conference (caption "Run Conference"), she received a professional excellence award and fellowship from a West African society for communications and administration (name as captioned). Having lost her voice for six months after giving her life to Christ, she was named in a word of knowledge, got her voice back, and last year won best newscaster of the year. She and her twin sister turn 50 on Tuesday 28 January (today); her autobiography launches in three weeks, with chapters "The Encounter" and "Celebrating a Rare God's General".

Impartations
- Pray over what you hold so it becomes a medium of impartation when placed on your head.
- Sensitivity to destiny direction; doors opening; the mantle of exception; the fullness of overflow; "highly sought after"; the mantle of consistency; wells of knowledge, wisdom, fire, favour, grace and power.
- With a symbol of your work lifted: territorial keys in your industry, the overtaker mantle, the garment of relevance; powers that target great people broken; business breaking forth, ministry blossoming.
- After clapping in tongues: "Nations will clap to your God": inventions, innovations, favour, creativity; no destiny dislocation; "something will happen today".
Important message
- This is a season of a revival of the strange acts of God. What God cannot do does not exist, and the doctor's verdict is not the final word.
- The God who answered Elijah by fire still answers by fire: every stone of hardness, every dust, every opposing water, and every voice saying what God has not said is consumed. Calling fire is calling God Himself.
- Believers are oaks of righteousness, the planting of the Lord: deeply rooted, strong, resistant to negativity, and in covenant like Abraham at Mamre, so every spoken word becomes evidence.
- God meets the weak and fearful like Gideon under the oak and turns them into deliverers.
- Faith is now: "while He was yet speaking". You are already in your answers.
- Whatever asks, like Pharaoh, "Who is the Lord that I should obey?" will be answered not with words but with evidence. Everything has obeyed.
- When the Lord builds up Zion He appears in His glory: the answer will not be secret, it will be loud, and nations will applaud.
- When God starts in a life He does not do half and half; it comes back to back.
