MFM DEVOTIONAL 18TH JANUARY 2024 𝕄𝔼𝕊𝕊𝔸𝔾𝔼:
Prophet Nathan confronted and rebuked the king’s error. There are many brave men and women of God in the pages of the Bible, but we usually associate bravery with strong warriors not bold prophets! Nathan was a brave prophet who had to deliver a tough message to the king of Israel. It takes courage, risk and a resolve to deliver a word that others may not want to hear. Any prophet, including Nathan, has to learn to hear God well, and deliver the word of the Lord accurately and in the proper time. This takes years of training and practice.
While the Bible doesn’t give us much detail about God’s training and preparation of Nathan, here’s an incident that proved that he has been in the school of God. Nathan had to stand before King David and deliver his most difficult message. It should be noted that warnings, especially to the high profiled personalities of this world, are not easy tasks because the bearer may end up being beheaded like John the Baptist who confronted Herod. It may end in incarceration like Prophet Micaiah, who told Ahab the truth to his face.
Speaking truth to power is not an easy task at all and that is why we must hold in honour and high esteem, all our fathers and preachers that speak the whole counsel of God without fear or prejudice. They are risking a lot to declare the mind of God. They deserve our honour and prayers not ill-speaking. Never join the bandwagon of people who go to the social media to rubbish men of God. It is not for you; don’t do it! The consequences might be too heavy.
Prophet Jeremiah once wept. Why? It is because he was hated by almost everyone for speaking the mind of God to kings, princes, high and low. It shows that men and women too need affection. Beloved, let’s endeavour to pray for our pastors and missionaries. They dare a lot of things at the peril of their lives. “Obey them that have the rule over you, and submit yourselves: for they watch for your souls, as they that must give account, that they may do it with joy, and not with grief: for that is unprofitable for you” (Hebrews 13:17). Today, let us intercede for our pastors and ministers.
