FIRE SCRIPTURE: 1 Samuel 20:1-10

1 And David fled from Naioth in Ramah, and came and said before Jonathan, What have I done? what is mine iniquity? and what is my sin before thy father, that he seeketh my life?

And he said unto him, God forbid; thou shalt not die: behold, my father will do nothing either great or small, but that he will shew it me: and why should my father hide this thing from me? it is not so.

And David sware moreover, and said, Thy father certainly knoweth that I have found grace in thine eyes; and he saith, Let not Jonathan know this, lest he be grieved: but truly as the Lord liveth, and as thy soul liveth, there is but a step between me and death.

Then said Jonathan unto David, Whatsoever thy soul desireth, I will even do it for thee.

And David said unto Jonathan, Behold, to morrow is the new moon, and I should not fail to sit with the king at meat: but let me go, that I may hide myself in the field unto the third day at even.

If thy father at all miss me, then say, David earnestly asked leave of me that he might run to Bethlehem his city: for there is a yearly sacrifice there for all the family.

If he say thus, It is well; thy servant shall have peace: but if he be very wroth, then be sure that evil is determined by him.

Therefore thou shalt deal kindly with thy servant; for thou hast brought thy servant into a covenant of the Lord with thee: notwithstanding, if there be in me iniquity, slay me thyself; for why shouldest thou bring me to thy father?

And Jonathan said, Far be it from thee: for if I knew certainly that evil were determined by my father to come upon thee, then would not I tell it thee?

10 Then said David to Jonathan, Who shall tell me? or what if thy father answer thee roughly?

PRAISE & WORSHIP

MFM Devotional 5th May 2026, Tuesday Message

Crisis is a turning point for better or worse. It is that juncture where one decides or declares. If I die, I die, If I live, I live. David was in crisis for the better part of thirteen years. He was running helter skelter, from one cave to another, from one wilderness to another trying to escape Saul and his team of hired killers. In our Fire Scripture today, we read of how Jonathan helped him to take a decisive decision to run away from Saul and from the palace. David was a man who suffered so much affliction. In Psalm 119:164 he said, “Seven times a day do I praise thee because of thy righteousness judgement.

Dearly beloved, the number one way to pray in times of crisis is to first of all realize that there are levels to spiritual warfare. You must first assess the one that you want to fight in. Is it strategic or advanced. This was what David did. To pray in times of crisis, you must pray to know the secret that is behind the crisis, and it’s only God who reveals the deep and the secret things. Once you know the power behind the crisis, the next step is begin to deploy the weapons of war to tackle the crisis and get it arrested and destroyed.

David that fight against him. prayed some terrible prayers in the Bible which are still very relevant today. He spoke to God in Psalm 35 to plead his cause with those that strive with him and fight against them

Praying in the time of crisis, you must know who the enemy is. What he’s doing against you and the kind of weapons so that you can counter it and return his evil back. Prayer in times of crisis must with be serious bombardment and consistency. Prayer in times of crisis are not prayers that you pray and give up or get tired of; you must be consistent until total victory is won.
