Building with it

Magma cream in an awkward potion gives complete immunity to fire and lava for three minutes, or eight with redstone. It is the single most important potion for the Nether, and it is what turns a lava lake from a death sentence into a shortcut.

In practice

Fire resistance makes lava swimming safe, which is what turns ancient debris mining from a careful tunnelling job into a straightforward one. Eight minutes extended is long enough for a full mining trip, and a splash version thrown at a friend covers both of you at once.
