TOPIC: Confront and Conquer
FIRE SCRIPTURE
Psalm 10:4-15
OUTLINE: God is in search of firebrand believers today! Such men and women are needed to showcase the wonders of God. If you want to be one of such believers, you need to tarry longer at the altar of prayer. You must get hold of the horns of the altar and refused to let them go. You must be prepared to pursue the enemy by aggressive prayer and by appropriating the blood of Jesus.
You must be so spiritual emboldened as to be able to pursue your enemies and overcome them. You must be well endued by the power of the Holy Spirit to be victorious over your enemies. The enemies should be running away from you, not you running away from them. In one word, you should stand up to be counted among the firebrand believers that God needs to disgrace the devil.
For example, if you have a person who is possessed in your place of work, he should be the one avoiding you and not you avoiding him. David pursued his enemies until they were destroyed and consumed. He did not rest until his enemies were destroyed. A lot of us are comfortable cohabiting with the enemy. But if you are wearing your full spiritual armour, the enemy should be running away from you.
A certain pastor came to me complaining that his church was not growing. He complained that so and so were disturbing him. I simply told him that his problem was because he had no fire in his life. I encouraged him to seek the fire of God and watch what would happen. He went back to his station, did as I told him and things began to happen. In his city which was under the stronghold of the children of the bondwoman, was a popular mad woman. Everybody knew her, because she had a small dustbin in every corner of the town.
One day, while the pastor and his men were clearing the ground they found her. They laid hands on her and prayed for her. Suddenly, she said, “Why am I wearing this? What am I doing here? Where are my children?” Then, it was clear that she had been healed. That miracle alone brought a lot of people to the church. Before then, the pastor was busy apportioning blame to unknown enemies. But, when the fire came, he became a holy troublemaker.
In today’s passage, you are challenged to pray to God to arise and scatter the horns of the wicked. You must take up that challenge today.
MEMORY VERSE
2 Timothy 1:12 “For the which cause I also suffer these things: nevertheless I am not ashamed: for I know whom I have believed, and am persuaded that he is able to keep that which I have committed unto him against that day.”
MOTIVATIONAL QUOTE
One of the definitions of madness is the act of increasing your speed when you know that you have missed the road.
PROPHETIC WORD
I decree upon your life that any power that wants you to die shall die.
MFM Daily Devotional 3 September 2020 HYMN
Rock of Ages, cleft for me
Rock of Ages, cleft for me,
Let me hide myself in Thee;
Let the water and the blood,
From Thy wounded side which flowed,
Be of sin the double cure;
Save from wrath and make me pure.
Not the labor of my hands
Can fulfill Thy law’s demands;
Could my zeal no respite know,
Could my tears forever flow,
All for sin could not atone;
Thou must save, and Thou alone.
Nothing in my hand I bring,
Simply to the cross I cling;
Naked, come to Thee for dress;
Helpless look to Thee for grace;
Foul, I to the fountain fly;
Wash me, Savior, or I die.
While I draw this fleeting breath,
When mine eyes shall close in death,
When I soar to worlds unknown,
See Thee on Thy judgment throne,
Rock of Ages, cleft for me,
Let me hide myself in Thee
