MFM Daily Devotional for 4th January 2021 Outline
Yesterday, we established the fact that a believer cannot do without faith in his life’s journey and walk with God. Faith is a prerequisite for fulfilling your divine purpose. However, there are different kinds of faith and it is important to highlight the kinds of faith that you need for the journey of life and destiny. Faith can be strong or weak. Faith can be active or dormant. Faith can be living or dead. Faith can be productive or unproductive. Faith can be well directed or misplaced. Faith can also be big or small. There is also something known as measure of faith.
Your measure of faith determines the size, quantity and quality of miracles and blessings you can receive from God. The good thing is that you can ask God to increase your faith. In Luke 17:5, the Bible says, “The apostles said unto the Lord, Increase our faith.” Beloved, I advise you to be honest with yourself this year. The apostles of Jesus were honest with themselves. They realised that their faith level was low and needed to be increased.
So, they made a request to the Lord in the area of that need: “Lord, increase our faith.” Is your faith weak? Seek the face of the Lord and tell Him to strengthen your faith. Is your faith low? Tell Him to increase it. Is your faith inactive and unproductive? Tell the Lord to give you a living, active and productive faith. If your faith is weak or low, you will continue to live an average life, instead of the mountain-top life that is destined for you. Low, weak, and unproductive faith is responsible for miracles and testimonies famine.
You can change all that by asking God for a big, living and mountain-moving faith. That is the kind of faith you need for the journey in 2021. Go to the Lord in fasting and prayer. Get this gamechanging faith. Your eagle will definitely soar in 2021. God bless you, in Jesus’ name.
Motivational Quote

Prophetic Word
I prophesy, receive the faith that sees the invisible, believes the incredible and achieves the impossible, in the name of Jesus.
HYMN – MY FAITH LOOKS UP TO THEE
1. My faith looks up to Thee,
Thou Lamb of Calvary,
Saviour divine!
Now hear me while I pray,
Take all my guilt away,
O let me from this day Be wholly Thine!
2. May Thy rich grace impart
Strength to my fainting heart,
My zeal inspire;
As Thou hast died for me,
O may my love to Thee Pure,
warm, and changeless be, A living fire!
3. While life’s dark maze I tread
And griefs around me spread,
Be Thou my guide;
Bid darkness turn to day,
Wipe sorrow’s tears away,
Nor let me ever stray From Thee aside.
4. When ends life’s passing dream,
When death’s cold,
threatening stream Shall o’er me roll,
Blest Saviour, then, in love, Fear and distrust remove;
O lift me safe above, A ransomed soul!
