Christians especially in this part of the world are fond of using "HOLY GHOST FIRE" as a spiritual weapon to fight their spiritual enemies during prayers.
A ghost is a spirit of the dead usually unclean. So the noun phrase "holy ghost" doesn't even follow. I dont know where in the bible it was mentioned that the holy spirit of GOD is a destroying & consuming fire for fighting, casting & binding spiritual enemies & forces of darkness. We christians sometimes are being mislead and we go astray not having complete knowlege & spiritual interpretation of the bible.
As far as am concerned there is nothing like "HOLY GHOST FIRE".

Where? In fact, where did Christ teach anyone to pray like that?
God comes to earth in human form and shows us how to communicate our petitions to God but the deceived reject his teachings only to follow the teaching of hirelings and fraudsters pretending to be "men of God!"

Nothing like that na ..
Na naija Christian's dey talk shit

Am here to know.

However I would understand if the term HOLY GHOST FIRE is used as a symbol of weapon. BUT NIGERIANS ARE USING IT LITERALLY as in make fire consume their enemies.____ Which cause for concern.

But RELIGION they say is BELIEF, so maybe its BELIEF working here.

Luke 9:54
James 3 :6
Exodus 24 :17
lamentation 2 :4
exodus 3:2-6

Luke 22 :56
Mark 14 :54
2 kings 1 :10 -14
act 2 :3-4
Matthew 3 :11 -12
those ones are enough.
fire represent God radiant glory as an aspect of his holiness =genesis 15 :17 -18.

What kind of fire? Holy spirit fire?

Emmanuelcann:
Luke 9: 55 "But he turned, and rebuked them, and said, Ye know not what manner of spirit ye are of."

not every soul understand the meaning behind those scriptures.

Luke 22 :56

This is how Jesus taught his disciples to pray - "After this manner therefore pray ye: Our Father which art in heaven, Hallowed be thy name.Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done in earth, as it is in heaven.Give us this day our daily bread. And forgive us our debts, as we forgive our debtors. And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil: For thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, for ever. Amen."
Matthew 6:9‭-‬13 KJV
The above is the true pattern of prayer. Jesus expressly taught the disciples not to pray vindictively or against others!

Comparison of the physical to the spiritual is ignorance

Question: "How is the Holy Spirit like a fire?"

Answer: The Bible describes God as “a consuming fire” (Hebrews 12:29), so it is not surprising that fire often appears as a symbol of God’s presence. Examples include the burning bush (Exodus 3:2), the Shekinah glory (Exodus 14:19; Numbers 9:15-16), and Ezekiel’s vision (Ezekiel 1:4). Fire has many times been an instrument of God’s judgment (Numbers 11:1, 3; 2 Kings 1:10, 12) and a sign of His power (Judges 13:20; 1 Kings 18:38).

For obvious reasons, fire was important for the Old Testament sacrifices. The fire on the altar of burnt offering was a divine gift, having been lit originally by God Himself (Leviticus 9:24). God charged the priests with keeping His fire lit (Leviticus 6:13) and made it clear that fire from any other source was unacceptable (Leviticus 10:1-2).

In the New Testament, the altar can serve as a picture of our commitment to the Lord. As believers in Jesus Christ, we are called upon to offer our bodies as “living sacrifices” (Romans 12:1), engulfed by the divine gift: the inextinguishable fire of the Holy Spirit. At the very beginning of the New Testament, the Holy Spirit is associated with fire. John the Baptist predicts that Jesus will be the One to “baptize you with the Holy Spirit and with fire” (Matthew 3:11). When the Holy Spirit began His ministry of indwelling the early church, He chose to appear as “tongues of fire” resting on each of the believers. At that moment, “all of them were filled with the Holy Spirit and began to speak in other tongues as the Spirit enabled them” (Acts 2:3-4).

Fire is a wonderful picture of the work of the Holy Spirit. The Spirit is like a fire in at least three ways: He brings God’s presence, God’s passion, and God’s purity. The Holy Spirit is the presence of God as He indwells the heart of the believer (Romans 8:9). In the Old Testament, God showed His presence to the Israelites by overspreading the tabernacle with fire (Numbers 9:14-15). This fiery presence provided light and guidance (Numbers 9:17-23). In the New Testament, God guides and comforts His children with the Holy Spirit dwelling in our bodies—the “tabernacle” and the “temple of the living God” (2 Corinthians 5:1; 6:16).

The Holy Spirit creates the passion of God in our hearts. After the two traveling disciples talk with the resurrected Jesus, they describe their hearts as “burning within us” (Luke 24:32). After the apostles receive the Spirit at Pentecost, they have a passion that lasts a lifetime and impels them to speak the word of God boldly (Acts 4:31).

The Holy Spirit produces the purity of God in our lives. God’s purpose is to purify us (Titus 2:14), and the Spirit is the agent of our sanctification (1 Corinthians 6:11; 2 Thessalonians 2:13; 1 Peter 1:2). As the silversmith uses fire to purge the dross from the precious metal, so God uses the Spirit to remove our sin from us (Psalm 66:10; Proverbs 17:3). His fire cleanses and refines.
