FIRE SCRIPTURE: Daniel 10:1-21(ESV)
1 In the third year of Cyrus king of Persia a word was revealed to Daniel, who was named Belteshazzar. And the word was true, and it was a great conflict.[a] And he understood the word and had understanding of the vision.
2 In those days I, Daniel, was mourning for three weeks. 3 I ate no delicacies, no meat or wine entered my mouth, nor did I anoint myself at all, for the full three weeks. 4 On the twenty-fourth day of the first month, as I was standing on the bank of the great river (that is, the Tigris) 5 I lifted up my eyes and looked, and behold, a man clothed in linen, with a belt of fine gold from Uphaz around his waist. 6 His body was like beryl, his face like the appearance of lightning, his eyes like flaming torches, his arms and legs like the gleam of burnished bronze, and the sound of his words like the sound of a multitude. 7 And I, Daniel, alone saw the vision, for the men who were with me did not see the vision, but a great trembling fell upon them, and they fled to hide themselves. 8 So I was left alone and saw this great vision, and no strength was left in me. My radiant appearance was fearfully changed,[b] and I retained no strength. 9 Then I heard the sound of his words, and as I heard the sound of his words, I fell on my face in deep sleep with my face to the ground.
10 And behold, a hand touched me and set me trembling on my hands and knees. 11 And he said to me, “O Daniel, man greatly loved, understand the words that I speak to you, and stand upright, for now I have been sent to you.” And when he had spoken this word to me, I stood up trembling. 12 Then he said to me, “Fear not, Daniel, for from the first day that you set your heart to understand and humbled yourself before your God, your words have been heard, and I have come because of your words. 13 The prince of the kingdom of Persia withstood me twenty-one days, but Michael, one of the chief princes, came to help me, for I was left there with the kings of Persia, 14 and came to make you understand what is to happen to your people in the latter days. For the vision is for days yet to come.”
15 When he had spoken to me according to these words, I turned my face toward the ground and was mute. 16 And behold, one in the likeness of the children of man touched my lips. Then I opened my mouth and spoke. I said to him who stood before me, “O my lord, by reason of the vision pains have come upon me, and I retain no strength. 17 How can my lord’s servant talk with my lord? For now no strength remains in me, and no breath is left in me.”
18 Again one having the appearance of a man touched me and strengthened me. 19 And he said, “O man greatly loved, fear not, peace be with you; be strong and of good courage.” And as he spoke to me, I was strengthened and said, “Let my lord speak, for you have strengthened me.” 20 Then he said, “Do you know why I have come to you? But now I will return to fight against the prince of Persia; and when I go out, behold, the prince of Greece will come. 21 But I will tell you what is inscribed in the book of truth: there is none who contends by my side against these except Michael, your prince.
MFM Devotional 26th June 2025: MESSAGE
God delights in blessing His children and helping them fulfill their destinies. However, there are powers that work contrary to this divine agenda. They are called negative withholding forces. They have first class in hindering people from enjoying their destiny. They make it difficult for people to receive help at the time of need. They also make covenant helpers unavailable and frustrate those available from being unable to help. The word “withholding” in the biblical context means refusal to give support in due season. It means to keep back or to refuse to guide.
There are two kinds of withholding forces: positive withholding forces and negative or satanic withholding forces. The positive or divine withholding forces are helpers of believers’ destinies. They preserve our divine mandate. They forbid the enemies from carrying out their evil mission against us, and they withhold us from sinning. They can stop any evil force at work in the life of a believer. Abimelech grabbed Abraham’s wife, but God withheld him from sleeping with her. This is the power of God in action.
As for the negative withholding forces, they work in the opposite direction. They play a big role in the rising and falling of families, individuals, organizations, churches, and countries of the world. They cause the sunset of many destinies and thwart many divine plans. These withholding forces have power to determine our arrival or non-arrival at our promised land. They can determine our speed, our safety, and our success in the race of destiny. They can hold one down either for good or for evil. But no man or power can withstand divine withholding forces because it is God’s own power.
Imagine how much Daniel had travailed in prayer, but the withholding powers held on to the answer to his prayers. But thank God who sent His angel for his rescue. You also need to travail in the place of prayer for your angel to be released from the grip of any withholding power. You must arise and pray aggressively against negative barriers and satanic embargoes on your destiny. Powers that divert favor, destroy opportunities, and prevent people from advancing in life and in the things of God should be violently overthrown. Enough is enough!
If only you will take a cue from Esther today, seek the face of God, declare a solemn fast, and confront that problem with the strength of the Lord, victory shall be yours in Jesus’ name.
MORNING
1. Inhibiting and limiting powers, my life is not your candidate, die, in the name of Jesus.
2. I bind and cast negative withholding forces out of my life, in the name of Jesus.
3. O Heaven over my life and destiny, open now by fire, in the name of Jesus.
EVENING
4. I plunder the warehouse of the strong man and recover my goods, in the name of Jesus.
5. I recover every good thing I lost to negative withholding forces, in the name of Jesus.
6. O God of increase, enlarge my coast, in the name of Jesus.
7. Evil embargo placed upon my life and destiny, scatter now, in the name of Jesus.
