TOPIC – Heroes Of Faith: Abraham (Mountain Of Fire and Miracle Ministries, MFM Devotional 13 August 2026)
BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: Proverbs 20, Proverbs 21, Revelation 1, Revelation 2
FIRE SCRIPTURE: Hebrews 11:8-19 (KJV)
8 By faith Abraham, when he was called to go out into a place which he should after receive for an inheritance, obeyed; and he went out, not knowing whither he went.
9 By faith he sojourned in the land of promise, as in a strange country, dwelling in tabernacles with Isaac and Jacob, the heirs with him of the same promise:
10 For he looked for a city which hath foundations, whose builder and maker is God.
11 Through faith also Sara herself received strength to conceive seed, and was delivered of a child when she was past age, because she judged him faithful who had promised.
12 Therefore sprang there even of one, and him as good as dead, so many as the stars of the sky in multitude, and as the sand which is by the sea shore innumerable.
13 These all died in faith, not having received the promises, but having seen them afar off, and were persuaded of them, and embraced them, and confessed that they were strangers and pilgrims on the earth.
14 For they that say such things declare plainly that they seek a country.
15 And truly, if they had been mindful of that country from whence they came out, they might have had opportunity to have returned.
16 But now they desire a better country, that is, an heavenly: wherefore God is not ashamed to be called their God: for he hath prepared for them a city.
17 By faith Abraham, when he was tried, offered up Isaac: and he that had received the promises offered up his only begotten son,
18 Of whom it was said, That in Isaac shall thy seed be called:
19 Accounting that God was able to raise him up, even from the dead; from whence also he received him in a figure.
MEMORY VERSE: Even as Abraham believed God, and it was accounted to him for righteousness. – Galatians 3:6 (KJV)
MOTIVATIONAL QUOTES: Faith births righteousness; you cannot have faith in God without His righteousness.
PRAISE AND WORSHIP: Take praise and worship songs as led by the Holy Spirit.
PROPHETIC WORD FOR TODAY: Receive the grace to walk in faith and righteousness, in the Name of Jesus.
MFM Devotional For Today 2026 MESSAGE:
Today, we discuss Abraham, the father of faith. This patriarch is described as the friend of God, the one who believed God even when it didn’t make human sense.
First, God instructed Abraham to leave his father’s house to a place He would show him. Abraham obeyed and left. Not only did he leave, he looked forward to the city God had promised without looking back. He looked for a city whose builder and maker is God (Hebrews 11:10). Like Abraham, God also calls us today to leave our worldly treasures and follow Him to the Heavenly city. Philippians 3:20 tells us that our citizenship is in Heaven. It’s a choice to follow God in faith like Abraham did, or hold on to what seems certain but will eventually be destroyed.

God promised Abraham a son; He assured him that he would be the father of many nations. According to Romans 4:18-21, Abraham did not stagger at the promise of God through unbelief; he believed God despite the obvious biological disadvantages. Beloved, this is a great lesson for us, to trust God despite medical or physical evidence to the contrary. You might have received damaging medical reports or terrible news but faith tells you to believe the report of the Lord which supersedes every other report.
Abraham received Isaac by faith but God asked him to sacrifice Isaac. He obeyed again. Abraham’s obedience through faith was counted to him for righteousness (Romans 4:22). If we also believe wholly in Christ Jesus, we will be partakers of His righteousness.
As believers in Jesus Christ, our faith in God will also make demands of us today. There are times that we would be required to give up precious things to test the level of our trust in God. How we respond determines whether or not we get the rewards of righteousness.
Beloved, the truth is that God will not make demands to harm His children. Every instruction God gives is to help His children come to a place of total submission to Him. May your faith not fail where it matters most, in Jesus’ Name.
