TOPIC – Power To Finish Well And Finish Strong (1) (Mountain Of Fire and Miracle Ministries, MFM Devotional 19 July 2026)
BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: Psalm 120, Psalm 121, Psalm 122, 2 Thessalonians 2, 2 Thessalonians 3
FIRE SCRIPTURE: 2 Chronicles 26:15-21 (KJV)
15 And he made in Jerusalem engines, invented by cunning men, to be on the towers and upon the bulwarks, to shoot arrows and great stones withal. And his name spread far abroad; for he was marvellously helped, till he was strong.
16 But when he was strong, his heart was lifted up to his destruction: for he transgressed against the Lord his God, and went into the temple of the Lord to burn incense upon the altar of incense.
17 And Azariah the priest went in after him, and with him fourscore priests of the Lord, that were valiant men:
18 And they withstood Uzziah the king, and said unto him, It appertaineth not unto thee, Uzziah, to burn incense unto the Lord, but to the priests the sons of Aaron, that are consecrated to burn incense: go out of the sanctuary; for thou hast trespassed; neither shall it be for thine honour from the Lord God.
19 Then Uzziah was wroth, and had a censer in his hand to burn incense: and while he was wroth with the priests, the leprosy even rose up in his forehead before the priests in the house of the Lord, from beside the incense altar.
20 And Azariah the chief priest, and all the priests, looked upon him, and, behold, he was leprous in his forehead, and they thrust him out from thence; yea, himself hasted also to go out, because the Lord had smitten him.
21 And Uzziah the king was a leper unto the day of his death, and dwelt in a several house, being a leper; for he was cut off from the house of the Lord: and Jotham his son was over the king’s house, judging the people of the land.
MEMORY VERSE: Commit thy works unto the Lord, and thy thoughts shall be established. – Proverbs 16:3 (KJV)
MOTIVATIONAL QUOTES: A life that started well can be tarnished by the failure to end well, especially where God is ignored.
PRAISE AND WORSHIP: Take praise and worship songs as led by the Holy Spirit.
PROPHETIC WORD FOR TODAY: In your life pursuit, may you never forget God, in the Name of Jesus.
MFM Devotional For Today 2026 MESSAGE:
Everyone who runs a race desires to finish well and finish strong. Unfortunately, some people finish poorly as a result of ignorance, carelessness, self-exaltation, pride, or over-confidence, especially when the individual forgets God and the undeniable fact that He alone gives you the power to become who you are or what you desire to become. The Bible says that without Him, we can do nothing (John 15:4-5). Trusting in your own intellect and potential is nothing but foolishness. If God did not give you life in the first place, you would have absolutely no power to exist, nor to achieve anything in life. Anyone who pushes God aside is ignoring the Source of life and all successful achievements.

This was the great error that King Uzziah made in today’s Fire Scripture. He started well in life. The Bible says he “sought the Lord.” Consequently, he succeeded with great and outstanding accomplishments, but he suddenly forgot God. His heart was lifted and he forgot that without God, he couldn’t have done or achieved so much. His pride marked the beginning of his downfall. The height of it was when he attempted to burn incense on the altar, which was the work of the priest. He became a leper as a result of this act. He became an object of disgrace and humiliation in the same land where he had prospered earlier on. This is a great lesson for anyone who dares to disobey the Almighty.
No one should ever see himself or herself as self-sufficient. The day anyone chooses not to acknowledge God as their major Source of life, their downfall becomes imminent. Therefore, I beseech you, endeavour to put God first in all you do according to Matthew 6:33. God is the Master Planner who never fails. He shows the way and leads us by Himself (Psalm 32:8). He makes our plans to come into fruitful execution when we commit it all into His hands. Even the soldier should not trust in the size of his armour or strength of his horse. It is God who gives victory.
PRAYER POINTS:
MORNING
- O Lord, I acknowledge You as my source, in the name of Jesus.
- O Lord, deliver me from every form of pride and self-exaltation, in the name of Jesus.
- Father, let me not fall into error that will cause me to finish poorly, in the name of Jesus.
EVENING
- Wicked powers assigned to hinder me from running with God to the end, die, in the name of Jesus.
- Every weakness planted in my life to cause my downfall, I cast you out, in the name of Jesus.
- I will not shift my gaze from the Lord Jesus, in the name of Jesus.
- Anointing to finish well, rest upon my life, in the name of Jesus.
