BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: Exodus 5, Exodus 6, Exodus 7, Luke 11, Luke 12, Luke 13.
FIRE SCRIPTURE: Matthew 17:14-21 (KJV)
14 And when they were come to the multitude, there came to him a certain man, kneeling down to him, and saying,
15 Lord, have mercy on my son: for he is lunatick, and sore vexed: for ofttimes he falleth into the fire, and oft into the water.
16 And I brought him to thy disciples, and they could not cure him.
17 Then Jesus answered and said, O faithless and perverse generation, how long shall I be with you? how long shall I suffer you? bring him hither to me.
18 And Jesus rebuked the devil; and he departed out of him: and the child was cured from that very hour.
19 Then came the disciples to Jesus apart, and said, Why could not we cast him out?
20 And Jesus said unto them, Because of your unbelief: for verily I say unto you, If ye have faith as a grain of mustard seed, ye shall say unto this mountain, Remove hence to yonder place; and it shall remove; and nothing shall be impossible unto you.
21 Howbeit this kind goeth not out but by prayer and fasting.
MEMORY VERSE: Howbeit this kind goeth not out but by prayer and fasting. – Matthew 17:21 (KJV)

PROPHETIC WORD FOR TODAY: Any pit dug for me shall swallow the digger, in the Name of Jesus.
MFM Devotional For Today 2026 MESSAGE:
Yesterday, we started the topic above. We want to explore further the story of the epileptic boy that Jesus healed but His disciples couldn’t heal. The disciples now secretly went to Jesus to ask Him why they couldn’t heal the boy. Jesus’ response to them in Matthew 17:21 says, “But this kind does not go out except by prayer and fasting.” Jesus made them to know the power of fasting and prayer by hitting the nail on the head. The lesson Jesus wanted them to learn is that problems, challenges and sicknesses are in categories. There are some that a little prayer of faith can clear away. On the other hand, some need serious bombardment of prayer and fasting. If this can settle in the mind of believers of today, then there will be no impossibility on their ways.

Dearly beloved, fasting and prayer can also produce great deliverance. In Esther 4:16-17, a case that looked impossible was settled with three days’ dry fasting and prayer. (Esther 4:16-17) Esther a Jewish queen fasted for three days to seek God’s intervention in saving the Jewish people from persecution and extermination. The people with her and her uncle Mordecai also fasted along with her. God answered her prayers and the Jewish people were spared. Not that alone, the table turned against their chief persecutor and the decree that had been set in motion for their extermination was truncated and they were in pole position to destroy their enemies.
Are you in any kind of trouble? are you being hunted by invisible spirits, are you tired of being threatened? Are you being haunted by invisible spirits? Are you being threatened? You need to wait on the Lord in fasting and prayer. He is just waiting for you to call on Him and He will back you up. Your miracle is waiting for you. Fasting and prayer can do the impossible in your life and God will take the glory.
