Critical reception
edit"Fire" received positive reviews from critics. Mike Wass of Idolator said "the slick club-banger pulses with staccato beats and intricate hooks — all while Michelle stays true to her faith on the catchy chorus: 'it feels just like fire, fire caught up in my bones, don't leave me alone'!" Wass also noted that "'Fire' could well be the first ode to Jesus that inspires listeners to drop it low since Mary Mary's 'Shackles (Praise You)'. Which is quite the feat."[2] Timothy Yap of Hallels called the song "a creative art in itself. Weaving in some seed thoughts from 1 Peter, the Hebrew narrative of Daniel's friends in the furnace, and her own autobiography, 'Fire' is a 'must-hear.'"[3]
