MFM Daily Devotional 31 August 2020 Outline
Victory is sweet; The joy of the overcomer is deep. When you discover secrets of spiritual warfare today, you will begin to run the race of life on the track of victory.
I read the story of a farmer who was on his way home with a basket full of yam. On his way, he saw something that looked like a white man’s toy. He picked it up and put it in his basket. The war had just ended in his country; and he did not know that it was a grenade that he had picked up. Later, the thing detonated and blew his head off. If he had been a soldier, he would have known and would not have picked a grenade that seemed like a toy to him..
Ignorance in spiritual warfare is as dangerous as what happened to that farmer. A lot of people have killed themselves out of being ignorant of spiritual warfare. There could be a demonic person bragging and boasting of the fetish powers that he or she has. As a child of God, you should not be afraid of such threats if you know your God and know the appropriate Scriptures to quote to counter whatever is uttered against you.
Beloved, as enlightened as university dons are, some of them consult herbalists and carry sacrifices at night. Sometimes, they drop such things in front of the offices of their colleagues. These are learned people and not market women most of who are usually illiterates. This means that a person could fill his head with book-knowledge and his brain with exciting Bible studies, while the faith is very light and falls at any slight push. Education is not our weapon of spiritual warfare.
It is spiritual ignorance that would make a person hear his name being called in his sleep and he wakes up with a start, answering the call and not knowing the action to take immediately he wakes up. Also, he wakes up with scratches on his body and does not know what to do, or that something could be done about it.
Beloved, it is time to retire from the School of the valley and enrol in the Mountain-top school. The weapons of our warfare are mighty. These are the only weapons that will always pull down satanic stronghold.
Motivational Quote: Your dry bones that are lying fallow at the valley of life shall receive prophetic breath and they shall jump out as a mighty army.
Prophetic Word: Any breakthrough of yours that is meant for this month, meant for this year that has been swallowed, the Holy Ghost will begin to cut open the belly of the serpent to vomit them.
HYMN – The Lord’s my shepherd
The Lord’s my shepherd, I’ll not want;
He makes me down to lie
In pastures green; he leadeth me
The quiet waters by.
My soul he doth restore again,
And me to walk doth make
Within the paths of righteousness,
E’en for his own name’s sake.
Yea, though I walk in death’s dark vale,
Yet will I fear no ill:
For thou art with me, and thy rod
And staff me comfort still.
My table thou hast furnished
In prsence of my foes;
My head thou dost with oil anoint
And my cup overflows.
Goodness and mercy all my life
Shall surely follow me;
And in God’s house for evermore
My dwelling-place shall be.
