Welcome to MFM Devotional, 12/09/23

BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: Isaiah 25 – 26; Mark 7 – 8.

WORSHIP & PRAISE:

Christ our Redeemer died on the cross,
Died for the sinner, paid all his due;
Sprinkle your soul with the blood of the Lamb,
And I will pass, will pass over you.

Refrain:
When I see the blood,
When I see the blood,
When I see the blood,
I will pass, I will pass over you.

2 Chiefest of sinners, Jesus will save;
As He has promised, that He will do;
Wash in the fountain opened for sin,
And I will pass, will pass over you. (Refrain)

3 Judgment is coming, all will be there,
Each one receiving justly his due;
Hide in the saving sin-cleasing blood,
And I will pass, will pass over you. (Refrain)

4 O great compassion! O boundless love!
O loving kindness, faithful and true!
Find peace and shelter under the blood,
And I will pass, will pass over you. (Refrain)

Confess your faults one to another, and pray one for another, that ye may be healed. The effectual fervent prayer of a righteous man availeth much.

MOTIVATIONAL QUOTE: Sin only thrives in secrecy.

12|09|23 PROPHETIC WORD:
You shall not keep the secrets that will destroy your life, in the name of Jesus.

FIRE SCRIPTURE: John 13:27-30{KJV}

12/09/23 MESSAGE:

Today, we will be looking at another aspect of the life of Judas Iscariot that we need to avoid.

Judas never opened up nor confessed his sins and that gave the devil a foothold in his life. He knew he had issues with money; he knew he steals and he never opened up to anyone including Jesus. He kept his sins hidden from his friends and ministry partners (John 13:27-30).

Probably, he would have been helped if he had opened up to Peter or John. They would have rallied round him in prayers. Jesus would have prayed for him like he prayed for Peter. But he kept his battle to himself. He must have muttered to himself that ‘how could a great man that I am descend so low to be vulnerable’. He forgot that only God cannot make mistakes.

In this mortal body, we are bound to make mistakes, but when we do, we must not be too proud to repent. He forgot that sometimes, even the deliverer also needs deliverance. He chose to conceal his battle until he was disgraced.

Beloved, there are battles you can’t fight alone; but with the help of true fellow believers, you will overcome. The devil delights in secrecy, especially on issues that will give him access into your life. It pays better to seek help and disappoint him than keep quiet and enthrone him. That was the fault of Judas.

Beloved, it is true that so many believers have been betrayed in the church by brethren whom they trusted. The fact that someone disappointed you or broadcasted your secrets does not mean that all brethren are bad. The church is a place of fellowship and succour. There is still a John the Beloved in the church, who will rally round you in love and stand with you in all circumstances until you overcome.

There is a Matthew in the church who could counsel you rightly on how he too overcame the temptation of money because he had been there.
Prayerfully surround yourself with people that can hold your feeble hand. It may be your spouse, parent, pastor or even your children. Speak up and get help.

Do not die in silence. You will not be a victim of destruction, in the name of Jesus.

PRAYER POINTS:

MORNING
1. Powers that want me to live my life alone, die, in the name of Jesus.

2. Problems that want to disgrace me, your time is up, die, in the name of Jesus.

3. As I go out today. I shall be at the right place at the right time meeting the right people, in the name of Jesus.

EVENING
4. My Father, this is my life, help me, in the name of Jesus.

5. 0 God arise and connect me with covenant helpers, in the name of Jesus.

6. Negative mindset about the church of God, be erased from my heart, by the blood of Jesus, in the name of Jesus.

7. By the power in the blood of Jesus, sin shall not have dominion over me, in the name of Jesus.
