MFM Mountain Top Life Daily Devotional 5 January 2019 By Dr. D.K Olukoya – Believe God and His Prophet
TOPIC: Believe God and His Prophet (Mountain Of Fire and Miracle Ministries, MFM Daily Devotional 5 January 2019)
FIRE SCRIPTURE: 2 Chronicles 18:19-27
MEMORY VERSE: “And they rose early in the morning, and went forth into the wilderness of Tekoa: and as they went forth, Jehoshaphat stood and said, Hear me, O Judah, and ye inhabitants of Jerusalem; Believe in the LORD your God, so shall ye be established; believe his prophets, so shall ye prosper. – 2 Chronicles 20:20
The MESSAGE:
Micaiah told Ahab (the king of Israel) not to go into war for he would die. The other prophets assured Ahab of victory and safe return. Ahab did not believe in God’s prophecy and he died (2 Chronicles 18:1-34).
In 2 Chronicles 20, Jehoshaphat believed God’s prophet and won a battle. According to the Scripture, a good sign that a prophet is from God is that whatever he prophesies will come to pass. Micaiah was hated and despised by King Ahab. His prophecies, to Ahab, were always unfavourable. Micaiah chose to remain unpopular with the king and popular with the Almighty God. He did not change or falsify his message to suit the listener. He chose to be the odd one out, but he knew that truth would prevail.
Naaman almost missed his miracle but for his servants who persuaded him to do as Elisha had told him. Naaman dipped himself in River Jordan seven times and leprosy was kicked out of his life. His skin became as that of a child.
Beloved, many of us have missed out on great miracles and our days of visitation just because we failed to believe God and His prophet. God’s word is infallible, true and sure. The Bible says that God watches over His word to fulfil it. To doubt the authenticity of God’s word is to doubt God’s omnipotence and unparalleled ability to do all things. That is why God judges and severely punishes unbelief and doubt. Similarly God’s prophets are His oracles, when you believe them you will prosper.
Some years ago, a male graduate attended the MFM headquarters Wednesday service. Though a graduate, he was jobless and poor. Life was really miserable for him. Everywhere he went, he kept experiencing disfavour and closed doors. He knew he had a spiritual problem but could not identify the cause or source. So, he ran to Jesus. As the service was going on that day, a word of knowledge from the Lord went out saying, “There is a man here. You jilted a lady you were courting when she did not do anything to offend you. Since then your life has been miserable. But right there where you are, the Lord is setting you free today”. The brother later testified that he felt a cold chill run through his entire being. That night, he also had a dream and saw the lady for the first time in several years. In one week, he got a visa as well as all the money he needed to travel abroad. His life and fortune changed in one week because he believed the prophet of God. Be wise.
MOTIVATIONAL QUOTE:
GOD DOESN’T CHANGE HIS WORD. IF HE HAS PROMISED YOU SOMETHING, BELIEVE THAT IT IS DONE BEFORE ITS EXISTENCE.
PROPHETIC WORD:
God will give you a divine surprise today.
