Who (The Father) makes His angles spirits; His ministers a flaming fire.
Psalms 104:4
The Hebrew word for fire in this verse is: lahat, means to lick; to
blaze; set on fire; a flash of fire.
The word is used here and of the flaming sword of the cherubim who
gaurded the way to the tree of life.
Gen. 3:24
Of Israel defeating her foes.
Num. 22:4
Of the enemies of the Messiah being completely defeated.
Ps. 72:9
Of fire from heaven licking up all the water poured upon the sacrifice
offered by Elijah.
2 Kings 18:38
Of the wicked being burned up at Armageddon.
Mal. 4:1
There are many more scripture texts to make this point, however the
conclusion is this: that Gods ministers being a flame of fire means
that they are to be so full of zeal and the anointing of the Spirit
that nothing can stand before them.
Gospel ministers are to have absolute authority and power over all the
works of the devil, and represent God among men.
Are we thus fulfilling our place in Gods earthly realm?
