Our God approaches and will not be silent! Consuming fire precedes Him, and a tempest rages around Him.

The language of consuming fire going before God and a storm surrounding him echoes Old Testament scenes of divine appearing, such as Sinai, where God came in fire and tempest to speak to Israel.
