MFM Daily Devotional 25 August 2020 – Running The Wrong Race

MFM Daily Devotional 25 August 2020 (Mountain Top Life Devotional) by Dr. D.K Olukoya

TOPIC: Running The Wrong Race

Fire Scripture: John 15:1-8

Today’s Outline: MFM 25th August 2020 Daily Devotional

To become a champion in life, never run a wrong race. People who are on the right track and are heading towards the right direction will easily achieve their goals. Before you were born, God had designed a purpose for you. If you are not fulfilling that purpose, your life is in danger.

This is why you really have to decide to use your life to fulfil divine purpose. Maybe you are winning the race that nobody asked you to run or you are effectively doing the wrong thing, you are warned to be careful. The fact that what you are doing seems good does not mean that it is right. It is said that a good idea does not necessarily mean it is God’s idea. So when a person’s life is not fulfilling the divine purpose for him, the person is wasting his life.

  MFM 25th August 2020 Daily Devotional by Pastor D. K. Olukoya

Some people come to the house of God just to sit down, warm the benches and go away in spite of the great talents that they have. God is recording these wasted talents against them; and they have to give an account of them. Satan can waste a person’s health, by keeping the person on a job that wastes his or her health, energy and abilities. A person’s blessing, properties and spiritual power can be wasted too. Beloved, we really need to pray hard. The power of the wasters can make people work like elephants but eat like rats.

Cain was a wasted man. Although Samson’s birth was prophesied by angels, he unfortunately, ended his life as he was a wasted man. Goliath was a waste. In spite of his threats against the Israelites for forty days, he only succeeded in promoting David. You can waste anything, but the most painful thing to do is to waste your own life.

You can and must put a halt to the activities of the wasters now.You must make up your mind to remain on the track. Never allow anything to unplug you from the socket of your destiny.

Memory Verse:
Jeremiah 33:8“And I will cleanse them from all their iniquity, whereby they have sinned against me; and I will pardon all their iniquities, whereby they have sinned, and whereby they have transgressed against me.”

Motivational Quote:
Unless God promotes you nobody can promote you. When you seek promotion from man, you may end up being promoted out of relevance.

Prophetic Word:
The miracle that will shock your friends and surprise your enemies, receive that miracle now, in the name of Jesus.

Hymn: LORD MY GOD! WHEN I IN AWESOME WONDER

Lord my God! When I in awesome wonder
Consider all the works thy hand hath made,
I see the stars, I hear the mighty thunder,
Thy power throughout the universe displayed;

Refrain:
Then sings my soul, my Saviour God, to Thee,
How great Thou art, how great Thou art!
Then sings my soul, my Saviour God, to Thee,
How great Thou art, how great Thou art!

When through the woods and forest glades I wander
and hear the birds sing sweetly in the trees;
when I look down from lofty mountain grandeur,
and hear the brook, and feel he gentle breeze;

And when I think that God his son not sparing,
Sent him to die – I scarce can take it in,
That on the cross my burden gladly bearing,
He bled and died to take away my sin:

When Christ shall come with shout of acclamation
And take me home- what joy shall fill my heart!
Then I shall bow in humble adoration
And there proclaim, my God, how great thou art!

Then sings my soul, my Saviour God, to Thee,
How great Thou art, how great Thou art!
Then sings my soul, my Saviour God, to Thee,
How great Thou art, how great Thou art!
