Episode 13: Strange Fire — When Worship Becomes Dangerous

Primary Text: Leviticus 10:1–11 (ESV)

Not all worship pleases God. And not all fire comes from heaven.

In this sobering and spiritually weighty episode of Victory Through the Battle, Charlotte Barton walks through the account of Nadab and Abihu in Leviticus 10 — two priests who offered what Scripture calls “unauthorized fire” before the Lord.

They were anointed. They were appointed. They were serving in the tabernacle.

But what they brought before God did not originate from Him.

This episode explores why worship disconnected from obedience becomes spiritually dangerous — and how the enemy often corrupts what he cannot stop.

You’ll discover:

  • What “strange fire” really means in the Hebrew context
  • Why right activity with the wrong source lacks authority
  • How emotional expression can replace reverent obedience
  • Why discernment is a spiritual warfare safeguard
  • The difference between holy fire and counterfeit spiritual activity
  • How to protect your worship from becoming performance

In Leviticus 10:10, God commands His priests to distinguish between the holy and the common, the clean and the unclean. That instruction still matters today.

Not everything spiritual is holy. Not every fire is from heaven. And not every passionate expression is pleasing to God.

True worship:

  • Invites God’s presence
  • Drives out darkness
  • Strengthens spiritual authority
  • Flows from obedience and surrender

Charlotte also unpacks how Jesus Christ is now our authorized access to God — our perfect offering and our holy fire. Through Him, we approach God not casually, but reverently and confidently.

If you’ve ever wondered: Is my worship rooted in obedience? Am I chasing manifestations instead of God’s presence? How do I keep my spiritual fire pure?

This episode will challenge, refine, and strengthen your understanding of worship as a weapon in spiritual warfare.
