quench / quenchedTo satisfy or slake one's thirst; to put out a fire, to douse, extinguish. DTP God lights a fire within man's heart and as disciples we should try to nurture that fire into a roaring flame of love and obedience; often, however, the enemy and, sometimes, we ourselves do things that dim or even extinguish the fire God has started in our hearts through Jesus Christ. The disciple is to be very careful not to quench the work of the Holy Spirit; that is, going against the will of the Father or turning one's back on the grace of Jesus Christ.Moses prayed unto the LORD, the fire was quenched. Num 11:2so they shall quench my coal which is left, 2 Sam 14:7that thou quench not the light of Israel. 2 Sam 21:17Many waters cannot quench love, neither can Song 8:7the smoking flax shall he not quench: Isa 42:3 shall not die, neither shall their fire be quenched; Isa 66:24and smoking flax shall he not quench, Matt 12:20to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked. Eph 6:16Quench not the Spirit. 1 Thes 5:19
