MFM DAILY DEVOTIONAL 7 JULY 2024 MESSAGE:
To persist can simply be defined as an act of being resolute at doing or accomplishing a thing. As it is in the physical, so it is in the spiritual, even more. It is imminent failure or calamity if and when a child of God loses the power or strength to persist in the things of the Spirit and in life generally. God expects us to hold on tenaciously and not give up until we overcome. However, there are situations that could render even the strongest of men powerless and hopeless.
The Bible states that affliction makes a wise man mad. Yet, Psalm 34:19 gives us the consolation that God is able to deliver the righteous from the multiple afflictions around him or her. This simply implies that for those who believe in God, they should endeavour to persist in faith, trusting God for their total deliverance, victory, healing, prosperity and much more, in the name of Jesus.
It is an unfortunate thing to lose guard or get weary in the place of prayer and the word of God which are the most efficacious antidotes to our breakthroughs as Christians. Proverb 24:10 says that to faint in the days of adversity shows that your strength is small. Glory to God, as we discover another encouraging verse of scripture in today’s memory verse. It then means that as long as God is on your side, when you fall, there is hope to rise again, even up to seven times.
Little wonder that the widow in our Fire Scripture today remained persistent in her plea to the judge to avail her of her adversaries. How much more as Christians, you and I have a Father who is always ready to attend to our situation whenever we lift our voices to Him in prayer. According to Matthew 7: 7, when you ask you receive; when you seek Him, you find Him; and when you knock fervently the doors of grace, He opens and ushers you into His glorious presence, all in the name of Jesus. This is an act of persistence in prayer!
Persistence is needed in every area of life. This is a fruit of the Spirit called long-suffering. Persistent people are good finishers; they persist and persevere in every good and godly aspects of life.

1. Spiritual laziness, I am not your candidate, come out of my life and die, in the name of Jesus.
2. Powers sapping my spiritual strength, fall down and die, in the name of Jesus.
3. O God, arise and baptise me with fresh fire and power to persist in the place of prayer, in the name of Jesus.
𝐄𝐕𝐄𝐍𝐈𝐍𝐆
4. Holy Spirit, empower me to endure in my spiritual activities without fainting, in the name of Jesus.
5. According to Your word, O Lord, renew my strength and make me strong as a spiritual eagle, in the name of Jesus.
6. Enemies of my spiritual lifting, repent or die, in the name of Jesus.
7. Father Lord, help me to persevere in righteousness and continue to do Your will all the days of my life, in the names of Jesus.
