Topic: Rejoice, The Wagons Are Coming [TREM Devotional 4 December 2018]

“And they told him all the words of Joseph, which he had said unto them: and when he saw the wagons which Joseph had sent to carry him, the spirit of Jacob their father revived:” Genesis 45:27

Today I come to encourage you not to give up. Weeping may endure for a night, but joy comes in the morning. I declare over your life that your season of joy has come in Jesus’ name. Our text for today is about Jacob. Jacob had been convinced years before that his favourite and most beloved son had been killed; a scheming perfected by his other sons and Jacob believed it. In spite of the number of years, Jacob lived in sorrow of losing this dear son of his. But one beautiful day, like today, he got the unbelievable news; his son that he had considered dead was alive.

What have you considered dead? What dream, desire or aspiration have you written off? What request have you filed away on the shelf and labelled impossible? I come with a word from God to you today: the wagons are coming.

What are wagons? Wagons are carriages or trucks used to move things from one place to the other. When you employ the services of a wagon, it shows you are not trying to pick one or two things, rather you have a whole load that you want to move. What are the things that you have written off? No matter the number, it is time to take them off the shelf because your wagons of testimonies are coming. Just like it happened to Jacob and his spirit revived, it will happen to you. The blessings that God is bringing your way today will surprise you. Jacob never imagined that he would see Joseph again, but God restored to him much more because, he not only saw Joseph, he was well taken care of throughout the famine. Jacob did not have to spend money again to feed his family, he was fed from the National Treasury. Think of it: all his domestic bills became government’s responsibility because the wagons came.

I plead with you to receive this word today and you will see the manifestations in Jesus’ name.

MFM Mountain Top Life Daily Devotional 4 December 2018 By Dr. D.K Olukoya – A Strong Wall Of Fire

TOPIC: A Strong Wall Of Fire (Mountain Of Fire and Miracle Ministries, MFM Daily Devotional 4 December 2018)

FIRE SCRIPTURE: Job 1:6-12

MEMORY VERSE: “For I, saith the LORD, will be unto her a wall of fire round about, and will be the glory in the midst of her.” – Zechariah 2:5

The MESSAGE:

There is a protective hedge around every child of God. This protective hedge is what is referred to as the wall of fire. This evidence was revealed by satan in the Fire Scripture for today. Walls of fire are real protective hedges which surround God’s children. A herbalist who was contracted to harm a brother confessed that he could not touch the wonderful brother because he saw a big fire all around him. There is an invisible wall of fire surrounding your life even now if you are a true child of God. This wall of fire cannot be seen with your physical eyes, except God opens your spiritual eyes to see it or sometimes opens the eyes of your enemies to see it.

As children of God, we are entitled to this divine protection. Job enjoyed this divine protection and as a result of this, satan could not harm him until God permitted him. When you have this wall of fire around you, no devil can harass you; every power from the covens of darkness will always bow to you.

Similarly, for anyone or anything to succeed unhindered in life, divine protection is the most needed asset. The truth remains that, for every good thing, there is always an opposition. People do not throw stones at unripe oranges but ripe ones. In the same vein, the devil goes to attack those who are headaches for his kingdom. When one embarks on any project without divine protection, the project end up in a fiasco. When a person’s life is not secured in Christ, that life may end up in crises. Divine protection is therefore paramount in every endeavour of life. The evidence of Job’s protection should encourage you to remain true to your faith as a child of God. Only a strong wall of fire can see you through life this year and beyond.

MOTIVATIONAL QUOTE:
A LIFE THAT IS NOT SECURED IN CHRIST IS IN CRISES.

PROPHETIC WORD:
Every secret battle presently raging against you shall fail woefully.

PRAYER POINTS:

MORNING
1. O God, arise and let me and everything belonging to me be enveloped in Your fire, in the name of Jesus.
2. Anything in me, quenching the fire of my protective hedge, come out and die, in the name of Jesus.
3. Every satanic fire, locking me out of the fire of God, quench now by the fire of God, in the name of Jesus.

EVENING
4. Thou holy fire, enter me now and incubate my life, in the name of Jesus.
5. Evil legs, walk out of my life and destiny right now, in the name of Jesus.
6. Every witchcraft incantation against my destiny, die now, in the name of Jesus.
7. My Father, clothe me and my family with the garment of fire, in the name of Jesus.

Topic: Build On Your Strengths [Open Heavens for Teens 4 December 2018]

Memorise: But ye, beloved, building up yourselves on your most holy faith, praying in the Holy Ghost. – Jude 20

Read: Hebrews 12:12-13 (KJV)

Bible In One Year: Daniel 3-4, 1 John 3

MESSAGE:

Everyone has strengths and weaknesses. However, our strengths are not meant to elicit pride in us, just as we should not celebrate our weaknesses. Some believers will often make statements like; “You know when I get angry nobody can stop me.” Or “For fear of encountering me in rage, people tread very softly with me.” Statements like these celebrate weaknesses. People who make such statements obviously don’t see their weaknesses as habits that they should do away with.

On the other hand, most of us have not identified our strengths. The simple truth is that any strength not built up diminishes into weakness. It is the strength that you have identified that you can constantly build on, and it is that strength that you constantly build on that will not retrogress into weakness. To secure your strength, identify it. Constantly build on it and avoid anything that can diminish it.

Key Point: The strengths of many have sadly been eroded due to neglect. Do not neglect your strengths.

Hymn 6:

1. Our God, our help in ages past,
Our hope for years to come,
Our shelter from the stormy blast,
And our eternal home:

2. Under the shadow of your throne
Your saints have dwelt secure;
Sufficient is your arm alone,
And our defense is sure

3. Before the hills in order stood
Or earth received its frame,
From everlasting you are God,
To endless years the same.

4. A thousand ages in your sight
Are like an evening gone
Short as the watch that ends the night
Before the rising sun.

5. Time, like an ever-rolling stream,
Soon bears us all away;
We fly forgotten, as a dream
Does at the opening day.

6. Our God, our help in ages past,
Our hope for years to come,
Still be our guard while troubles last,
And our eternal home!

Topic: Overcome That Temptation [DCLM Daily Manna 4 December 2018 Daily Devotional by Pastor William Folorunso Kumuyi]

Text: Matthew 4:1-11 (KJV)

Key Verse: “Then was Jesus led up of the Spirit into the wilderness to be tempted of the devil“ (Matthew 4:1).

MESSAGE:

Temptation is an allurement or enticement from the devil to make us do evil. Temptations, if not yielded to, are not sin. Satan’s temptations often start at the eye, blinded to things it should see, and dazzled with vanities it should be turned from. Temptations commonly rise from the world and the things in it; the lust of the flesh and the eye, with the pride of life. These are the major weapons the devil uses.

The experience of our Lord Jesus in the wilderness reveals that no one is free from or above temptation. Jesus was tempted when He was hungry. This made turning a stone into bread very proper for His necessary support. It is one of the wiles of Satan to take advantage of outward condition to plant his temptations. The use of unlawful means to get relief could bring setback to us. It is better to starve to death than live and thrive in sin.

The aim of Satan in all the series of temptation was to bring Jesus to sin against God and render Him incapable of making the Substitutionary Atonement for the sins of mankind. Had he succeeded, he would have been too glad to have Christ’s honour ceded to him.

Believers are to employ careful measures so as not to be caught in Satan’s web; knowing full well that the glory of the world is the most charming temptation to the unthinking and unwary. The comfort we have is in the fact that Christ conquered all the tempter’s tricks. He conquered for us. Hence, followers of Christ are given power to overcome all temptations and remain more than conquerors (Hebrews 2:18).

Thought For The Day: He who yields to temptation succumbs to Satan’s snare.
