MFM Topic, Fri 31/03/23:- victory over the spirit of error [3]

Welcome to MFM Devotional, 31/03/23

PRAISE & WORSHIP:

1 My hope is built on nothing less
than Jesus’ blood and righteousness;
I dare not trust the sweetest frame,
but wholly lean on Jesus’ name.

Refrain:
On Christ, the solid Rock, I stand:
all other ground is sinking sand;
all other ground is sinking sand.

2 When darkness veils his lovely face,
I rest on his unchanging grace;
in every high and stormy gale,
my anchor holds within the veil. [Refrain]

3 His oath, his covenant, his blood,
support me in the whelming flood;
when all around my soul gives way,
he then is all my hope and stay. [Refrain]

4 When he shall come with trumpet sound,
O may I then in him be found:
dressed in his righteousness alone,
faultless to stand before the throne. [Refrain]

BIBLE IN ONE YEAR:
Judges 11–12; Luke 6:1–26

MEMORY VERSE:
1 Samuel 15:22 – And Samuel said, Hath the Lord has great delight in burnt offerings and sacrifices, as in obeying the voice of the Lord? Behold, to obey is better than sacrifice, and to hearken than the fat of rams.

MOTIVATIONAL QUOTE:
When the enemy comes to you and cannot find his property, he knows you are not for him and will walk away quietly with shame.

31/3/23 PROPHETIC WORD:
MY ANCESTRAL MISTAKE WILL NOT CATCH UP WITH ME, IN THE NAME OF JESUS.

FIRE SCRIPTURE:
1 Samuel 15:7-15 [KJV]
And Saul smote the Amalekites from Havilah until thou comest to Shur, that is over against Egypt.

8 And he took Agag the king of the Amalekites alive, and utterly destroyed all the people with the edge of the sword.

9 But Saul and the people spared Agag, and the best of the sheep, and of the oxen, and of the fatlings, fatlings: or, second sort” and the lambs, and all that was good, and would not utterly destroy them: but every thing that was vile and refuse, that they destroyed utterly.

10 Then came the word of the Lord unto Samuel, saying,

11 It repenteth me that I have set up Saul to be king: for he is turned back from following me, and hath not performed my commandments. And it grieved Samuel; and he cried unto the Lord all night.

12 And when Samuel rose early to meet Saul in the morning, it was told Samuel, saying, Saul came to Carmel, and, behold, he set him up a place, and is gone about, and passed on, and gone down to Gilgal.

13 And Samuel came to Saul: and Saul said unto him, Blessed be thou of the Lord: I have performed the commandment of the Lord.

14 And Samuel said, What meaneth then this bleating of the sheep in mine ears, and the lowing of the oxen which I hear?

15 And Saul said, They have brought them from the Amalekites: for the people spared the best of the sheep and of the oxen, to sacrifice unto the Lord thy God; and the rest we have utterly destroyed.

31/3/23 MESSAGE:
Beloved, as we again look at the victory over the spirit of error today, I implore you to carefully read through our Fire Scripture for today.

Saul, the first king of Israel, did the unthinkable. Recall that the Amalekites had been the first to oppose the nation of Israel as they wandered in the desert after they were set free from slavery in Egypt (Exodus 17:8-13). They represent evil power and opposition to God, His people and His truth.

It was Saul’s responsibility to totally destroy the Amalekites because of their evil ways. But Saul failed to fully obey God’s command about the Amalekites by sparing their king, the best livestock and other spoils of war.

He even tried to offer the false excuse that he had good intentions and had spared the best things to sacrifice to God. The Lord did not accept that flimsy excuse and later rejected Saul as king. Saul’s bad example teaches us that partial obedience is disobedience. God requires full obedience.

Dearly beloved, nothing but the spirit of error made Saul to act against the divine command? What did Saul need king Agag for? It was the spirit of error that made him to do what ordinarily he should not have done as king.

God is not impressed by anything done outside His instructions and commands. Rather than instant repentance, Saul still tried to put up a strong argument in self-defense. Imagine, Before the Almighty God! What effrontery and impunity! Spirit of error in active manifestation!

The end of story Saul’s story was nothing but affliction and destruction. The once well-favoured man that rose to the position of the first king in Israel became an odour in God’s nostrils, as a result of his inability to flee the spirit of error. He ended with acute rebellion, lost his royalty and position before God.

Beloved, the same thing awaits any child of God who is not careful to disconnect from anything that can set him against God. Do you seek to finish well and strong in your Christian journey and life? Depart from the spirit of error, often provoked by pride and arrogance.

Deal with sin and self; the activities of the flesh in you and embrace the fruit of the Spirit (Gal. 5:19-21;22-23).
