TOPIC – Big Battles, Big Victories (1) (Mountain Of Fire and Miracle Ministries, MFM Devotional 21 January 2026)
BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: Exodus 11, Exodus 12, Exodus 13, Luke 17, Luke 18, Luke 19.
FIRE SCRIPTURE: Exodus 14:13-31 (KJV)
13 And Moses said unto the people, Fear ye not, stand still, and see the salvation of the Lord, which he will shew to you to day: for the Egyptians whom ye have seen to day, ye shall see them again no more for ever.
14 The Lord shall fight for you, and ye shall hold your peace.
15 And the Lord said unto Moses, Wherefore criest thou unto me? speak unto the children of Israel, that they go forward:
16 But lift thou up thy rod, and stretch out thine hand over the sea, and divide it: and the children of Israel shall go on dry ground through the midst of the sea.
17 And I, behold, I will harden the hearts of the Egyptians, and they shall follow them: and I will get me honour upon Pharaoh, and upon all his host, upon his chariots, and upon his horsemen.
18 And the Egyptians shall know that I am the Lord, when I have gotten me honour upon Pharaoh, upon his chariots, and upon his horsemen.
19 And the angel of God, which went before the camp of Israel, removed and went behind them; and the pillar of the cloud went from before their face, and stood behind them:
20 And it came between the camp of the Egyptians and the camp of Israel; and it was a cloud and darkness to them, but it gave light by night to these: so that the one came not near the other all the night.
21 And Moses stretched out his hand over the sea; and the Lord caused the sea to go back by a strong east wind all that night, and made the sea dry land, and the waters were divided.
22 And the children of Israel went into the midst of the sea upon the dry ground: and the waters were a wall unto them on their right hand, and on their left.
23 And the Egyptians pursued, and went in after them to the midst of the sea, even all Pharaoh’s horses, his chariots, and his horsemen.
24 And it came to pass, that in the morning watch the Lord looked unto the host of the Egyptians through the pillar of fire and of the cloud, and troubled the host of the Egyptians,
25 And took off their chariot wheels, that they drave them heavily: so that the Egyptians said, Let us flee from the face of Israel; for the Lord fighteth for them against the Egyptians.
26 And the Lord said unto Moses, Stretch out thine hand over the sea, that the waters may come again upon the Egyptians, upon their chariots, and upon their horsemen.
27 And Moses stretched forth his hand over the sea, and the sea returned to his strength when the morning appeared; and the Egyptians fled against it; and the Lord overthrew the Egyptians in the midst of the sea.
28 And the waters returned, and covered the chariots, and the horsemen, and all the host of Pharaoh that came into the sea after them; there remained not so much as one of them.
29 But the children of Israel walked upon dry land in the midst of the sea; and the waters were a wall unto them on their right hand, and on their left.
30 Thus the Lord saved Israel that day out of the hand of the Egyptians; and Israel saw the Egyptians dead upon the sea shore.
31 And Israel saw that great work which the Lord did upon the Egyptians: and the people feared the Lord, and believed the Lord, and his servant Moses.

MFM Devotional For Today 2026 MESSAGE:
God often proves Himself as the Mighty Man in Battle when His children are confronted by formidable enemies and tough opponents. It is only in such instances that they can experience big victories. Sometimes, God may not show up in your situation until the battle seems insurmountable. It is an opportunity for Him to prove His awesome power. There are a good number of such instances recorded in the Bible.

Moses and his people were confronted with the Red Sea on their way to the Promised Land. Humanly speaking, they had to either retreat or get drowned. Amazingly, God came to their rescue by parting the Red Sea. Strangely, the same sea that opened for their deliverance became the cemetery of their enemies. Pharaoh, his horsemen and their chariots got drowned in the sea. Awesome God! A big victory indeed!
In 2 Chronicles chapter 20, Jehoshaphat, the king and the people of Judah were confronted with allied enemies – the Moabites, Ammonites and others. Jehoshaphat did not waste time in crying to God for deliverance and victory over this great opposition. He confessed their helplessness. God saw their sincerity and the Word of the Lord came to him. It was an assurance of victory, God’s comforting words put his mind at rest. God asked the singers to go before the soldiers, this was absolutely awkward, but everything is possible with the Almighty. His praises went before, to prove that God dwells in the praises of His people to declare judgement upon their enemies. The victory was unprecedented. The enemies destroyed one another. The children of Judah actually fought no battle. They only stepped in to collect the spoil. This is nothing but a proof of God’s awesome power to deliver His own, no matter the fierceness of the enemy.
God is still in the same business. He will fight for you in that battle that seems bigger than you. You only need to learn how to call upon Him in prayer and believe that He who did it before, will do it.
