MFM Mountain Top Life Daily Devotional 27 November 2018 By Dr. D.K Olukoya – Jumping Out Of the Dust of Poverty
TOPIC: Jumping Out Of the Dust of Poverty (Mountain Of Fire and Miracle Ministries, MFM Daily Devotional 27 November 2018)
FIRE SCRIPTURE: 1 Samuel 2:7-8
MEMORY VERSE: “For ye know the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, that, though he was rich, yet for your sakes he became poor, that ye through his poverty might be rich.” – 2 Corinthians 8:9
The MESSAGE:
In the Fire Scripture, the man in the dust of poverty was described as a poor man and a beggar who needed to be raised out of the dust and be lifted from the dunghill. He needed to be set among the princess and inherit the throne of glory. Poverty is a state of lack, destitution, want, shortage, inadequacy, scarcity, lacking basic needs, and inferiority complex. Such a person is deficient, destitute, penniless, needy, starved, beggarly, broke, weak and hungry but dreaming of food. Beloved, God has the power to make us rich as He did for king Solomon. God also has promised us that as we obey and serve Him, He will bless our water, our bread and remove sickness from among us (Exodus 23: 25). His wish is that we should prosper in all things, but what do we see today? Many Christians are poor despite being born again, and the Spirit-filled are still covered with the dust of poverty.
Adam and Eve were made out of dust, and they were not meant to return to the dust but for the sin if disobedience. The ground, which was meant to be their instrument of prosperity, became their curse. Therefore, to be covered by the dust of poverty means that one is under siege, distress, sorrowful situation, hungry, and lacks helpers. The siege of poverty also expresses itself when there is unexplained hatred, when one is despised, always indebted and not able to pay, leading to financial stress and embarrassment, unexplainable loss of money, non-recovery of money lent out to people, always having dreams of putting on rags, business failures, career and prayer failure, and chronic unemployment situation. Many people willingly or due to ignorance, cover themselves with the dust of poverty as a result of their attitude. Many others are victims of satanic attacks due to disobedience to God’s laws.
God has the power to raise the poor out of the dust and He has promised us just that. To come out of poverty therefore, you need to believe in the work of Jesus Christ on the cross of Calvary, recognize God as your source, serve Him, seek His kingdom first, obey Him at all cost, be holy and fear God, look up and not down for your help, be a giver with the little you have, abstain from cheating others, be prayerful and have faith in God. Above all, Christ became poor for your sake so that you can be rich.
