Welcome to MFM Devotional 04\08\23

PRAISE & WORSHIP
1 O Jesus, I have promised
to serve Thee to the end;
be Thou forever near me,
my Master and my Friend;
I shall not fear the battle
if Thou art by my side,
nor wander from the pathway
if Thou wilt be my Guide.

2 O let me feel Thee near me,
the world is ever near;
I see the sights that dazzle,
the tempting sounds I hear;
my foes are ever near me,
around me and within;
but, Jesus, draw Thou nearer,
and shield my soul from sin.

3 O let me hear Thee speaking
in accents clear and still,
above the storms of passion,
the murmurs of self-will;
O speak to reassure me,
to hasten or control!
O speak, and make me listen,
Thou Guardian of my soul!

4 O Jesus, Thou hast promised
to all who follow Thee
that where Thou art in glory
there shall Thy servant be;
and, Jesus, I have promised
to serve Thee to the end;
O give me grace to follow,
my Master and my Friend!

BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: Proverbs 2 – 3; James 4 – 5.

Come along with the instrument of your labour to the service

4/8/23 PROPHETIC WORD:
I decree that this year and beyond, no evil shall befall you and no plague shall come near your dwelling, in the name of Jesus.

FIRE SCRIPTURE: Psalm 61:1-8

1 Hear my cry, O God; attend unto my prayer.

2 From the end of the earth will I cry unto thee, when my heart is overwhelmed: lead me to the rock that is higher than I.

3 For thou hast been a shelter for me, and a strong tower from the enemy.

4 I will abide in thy tabernacle for ever: I will trust in the covert of thy wings. Selah.

5 For thou, O God, hast heard my vows: thou hast given me the heritage of those that fear thy name.

6 Thou wilt prolong the king’s life: and his years as many generations.

7 He shall abide before God for ever: O prepare mercy and truth, which may preserve him.

8 So will I sing praise unto thy name for ever, that I may daily perform my vows.

04/08/23 MESSAGE:

Yesterday, we established that God’s people enjoy divine protection and that heaven has made provisions to guarantee their security. We also looked at three of the ways God protects them. Today, we shall look at more of such ways and appropriate this divine privilege into our lives.

The fourth way that God protects His people is by keeping them under His wings. The Psalms metaphorically depict God as having wings, a symbol of protection, as a mother hen would gather chicks under her wings.

Psalm 61:4 affirms this, “I will abide in thy tabernacle forever: I will trust in the covert of thy wings.” Beloved, I pray that God will hide you under the shelter of His wings and keep you safe from the enemy or predators, in the name of Jesus.

The fifth way God protects His beloved people is by putting them under His shield and in His refuge. The Psalmist boldly declared, “God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble” (Psalm 46:1).

I encourage you to make this faith-boosting declaration as well. You will have what you say! Psalm 91 is an assurance that God is the believer’s shield and refuge. The Psalmist also declared in Psalm 119:114 that God is his hiding place and his shield.

As a New Testament believer, God is all these to you and more! God also protects His people by faith, as He did for Moses. By faith, Moses, when he was born, was hid three months of his parents, because they saw he was a proper child; and they were not afraid of the king’s commandment (Hebrews 11:23).

God protected and preserved Moses miraculously. He honoured the courageous trust that Moses’ parents demonstrated in His ability to protect their son.
He protected the Israelites by
(1) making them cross the Red Sea on dry ground-Exodus 14:13-31.
(2) Providing water for them in the wilderness – Exodus 17:1-6.
(3) Providing manna and quails for them-Exodus 16:1-35.
(4) Defeating the Amalekites (their enemies) – Exodus 17:8-16.
(5) Protecting them from snakes and diseases in the wilderness Numbers 21:4-9.

Beloved, you are the apple of God’s eye. Your life is hidden in Christ with God!

PRAYER POINTS:

MORNING
1. I declare that I am the apple of God’s eye, in the name of Jesus.

2. My life is hid in Christ with God, in the name of Jesus.

3. I am that I am, I commit my life into Your hands, in the name of Jesus.

EVENING
4. Father, I thank You for the provision You have made available for my security, in the name of Jesus.

5. This year and beyond, I shall enjoy divine immunity and protection, in the name of Jesus.

6. Father, put your hedge of fire round about me and my family, in the name of Jesus.

7. I dwell in the secret place of the Most High and abide under the shadow of the Almighty, in the name of Jesus.
