FIRE SCRIPTURE
Matthew 21:18-21
MESSAGE
Jesus has promised that we shall do greater works and that the wonders which you shall perform will surprise those who are around you. God will showcase His glory, by bringing out His wonders in your life.
Sometime ago, a witch-doctor husband of one of our new converts traced his wife to our meeting through charms and threatened to deal with us if we did not release his wife. We asked him if he had come to fight us physically and he said no, but that he would use his power on us. We told him that he could go ahead to use whatever power he had on us. But alas!, he failed woefully. He was enraged, because he had lost his wife to Jesus.
In a fellowship that I was attending a long time ago, our prayer was so aggressive that unbelievers did not dare pass by the church building. They knew that if they attempted to cross our bridge, they would be shocked.
However, why is it that evil people that are supposed to be running about seeking our help are the very people giving us problems? Are they not the ones who ought to be running helterskelter?
Did not our Lord and Master, Jesus, say: “Greater works than these shall ye do.” Our lives should be a terror to evil people. If they lock up Christians, we expect the angels of God to come and open the door of the prison.
MFM Mountain Top Life Devotional 16 March 2020: The reason we don’t see angels is that many people cannot cope with consecration that is required. Every believer is meant to be a power generator. It is not for pastors, apostles or evangelists and ministers alone. Whatever Jesus did, according to our text of today, can be done today, through you. You shall even do greater works. No wonder the Bible declares that this is the age of the manifestation of the sons and daughters of God.
Step out by faith; and God will manifest Himself through you, as his son or daughter.
MOTIVATIONAL QUOTE
Humility is ladder to greatness. The way up is down. The man who humbles himself will always survive, no matter what happens. The humble will not stumble.
PROPHETIC WORD
Those enemies that call themselves your friend shall be exposed.
HYMN FOR TODAY – Abide with me; fast falls the eventide
1. Abide with me, fast falls the eventide,
The darkness deepens, Lord, with me abide;
When other helpers fail and comforts flee,
Help of the helpless, O abide with me!
2. Swift to its close ebbs out life?s little day,
Earth?s joys grow dim, its glories pass away;
Change and decay in all around I see
O Thou who changest not, abide with me!
3. I need Thy presence every passing hour,
What but Thy grace can foil the tempters power?
Who like Thyself my guide and stay can be?
Through cloud and sunshine, Lord abide with me!
4. I fear no foe with Thee at hand to bless;
Ills have no weight, and tears no bitterness,
Where is death’s sting?
Where, grave thy victory?
I triumph still, if Thou abide with me.
5. Come not in terror, as the King of Kings,
But kind and good with healing in Thy wings;
Tears for all woes, a heart for every plea;
Come, friend of sinners, thus abide with me.
6. Hold Thou Thy word before my closing eyes,
Shine through the gloom and point me to the skies;
Heaven?s morning breaks and earth?s
vain shadows flee
In life, in death, O Lord, abide with me!
