Welcome to MFM Devotional, 03/01/23

PRAISE & WORSHIP:

1 Thy Word is a lamp to my feet,
A light to my path alway,
To guide and to save me from sin,
And show me the heav’nly way.

Refraiin:
Thy Word have I hid in my heart,
That I might not sin against Thee;
That I might not sin, that I might not sin,
Thy Word have I hid in my heart.

2 Forever, O Lord, is Thy Word
Established and fixed on high;
Thy faithfulness unto all men
Abideth for ever nigh. (Refrain)

3 At morning, at noon, and at night
I ever will give Thee praise;
For Thou art my portion, O Lord,
And shall be thro’ all my days! (Refrain)

4 Thro’ Him whom Thy Word hath foretold,
The Saviour and Morning Star,
Salvation and peace have been bro’t
To those who have strayed afar. (Refrain)

BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: Genesis 7, Genesis 8, Genesis 9, Matthew 7, Matthew 8, Matthew 9

FIRE SCRIPTURE: Matthew 4:4-11 (KJV)

4 But he answered and said, It is written, Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of God.

5 Then the devil taketh him up into the holy city, and setteth him on a pinnacle of the temple,

6 And saith unto him, If thou be the Son of God, cast thyself down: for it is written, He shall give his angels charge concerning thee: and in their hands they shall bear thee up, lest at any time thou dash thy foot against a stone.

7 Jesus said unto him, It is written again, Thou shalt not tempt the Lord thy God.

8 Again, the devil taketh him up into an exceeding high mountain, and sheweth him all the kingdoms of the world, and the glory of them;

9 And saith unto him, All these things will I give thee, if thou wilt fall down and worship me.

10 Then saith Jesus unto him, Get thee hence, Satan: for it is written, Thou shalt worship the Lord thy God, and him only shalt thou serve.

11 Then the devil leaveth him, and, behold, angels came and ministered unto him.

MEMORY VERSE:
“For the word of God is quick, and powerful, and sharper than any twoedged sword, piercing even to the dividing asunder of soul and spirit, and of the joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart.” – Hebrews 4:12

MOTIVATIONAL QUOTE:
GOD’S WORD IS YOUR MOST POWERFUL WEAPON

PROPHETIC WORD FOR 03/01/23:
THIS YEAR, THE WORD OF GOD SHALL MOVE YOU FROM GLORY TO GLORY, IN THE NAME OF JESUS.

03/01/23 MESSAGE:

This year, I encourage you to take full advantage of the inestimable benefits that the word of God offers every believer. The word of God is a very potent and highly veritable weapon that heaven has made available to all believers to reign in life. Let God’s word dwell in you richly (Colossians 3:16).

Delight in it and meditate in it day and night. Let it be your standard for living. You will be like the tree that is planted by the rivers of water that brings its fruit in its season. Your leaves will not wither and all that you do will prosper (Psalm 1:1-3).

When Joshua became Moses’ successor and God saw the herculean task before him, He gave him the weapon and prescription for success: “This book of the law shall not depart out of thy mouth; thou shall meditate therein day and night, that thou mayest observe to do according to all that is written therein: for then thou shalt make thy way prosperous, and then thou shalt have good success” (Joshua 1:8-9).

Similarly, as you begin the journey of 2023, make God’s word your companion and trusted weapon for victory, success and all-round fulfilment. Study it daily, memorise it, meditate on it and quote it to overcome the tempter and accuser, as Jesus did in Matthew 4:4-11. Make it your compass throughout this year and beyond. Let it be a lamp for your feet and a light on your path; you will find divine direction for your life and huge success in your endeavours.

In addition, the word of God is described as the word of righteousness and as strong meat. It will help you to mature as a believer and to discern both good and evil (Hebrews 5:14).

I counsel you to make yourself a word addict this year; study it to show yourself approved as a workman that needs not be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth (2 Timothy 2:15).

More importantly, this year, endeavour to be a doer of the word of God than in the years gone by. This will be your best year ever, in the name of Jesus.

PRAYER POINTS:

MORNING

1. Father, give me the grace to love Your word more than my necessary food, in the name of Jesus.

2. Father, make me a doer of Your word, in the name of Jesus.

3. Father, let Your word be a spiritual instrument that will move me from victory to victory this year, in the name of Jesus.

EVENING

1. O God, let Your Word give life and health to all areas of my life, in the name of Jesus.

2. I declare that the word of God shall always be my standard for living, in the name of Jesus.

3. This year and beyond, the word of God shall be my compass and I shall enjoy divine guidance, in the name of Jesus.

4. Father, by the power in Your word, perfect all that concerns me, in the name of Jesus.
