TOPIC – Fasting And Prayer: The Key To The Impossible (3) (Mountain Of Fire and Miracle Ministries, MFM Devotional 20 January 2026)
BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: Exodus 8, Exodus 9, Exodus 10, Luke 14, Luke 15, Luke 16.
FIRE SCRIPTURE: Ezra 8:21-23 (KJV)
21 Then I proclaimed a fast there, at the river of Ahava, that we might afflict ourselves before our God, to seek of him a right way for us, and for our little ones, and for all our substance.
22 For I was ashamed to require of the king a band of soldiers and horsemen to help us against the enemy in the way: because we had spoken unto the king, saying, The hand of our God is upon all them for good that seek him; but his power and his wrath is against all them that forsake him.
23 So we fasted and besought our God for this: and he was intreated of us.
MEMORY VERSE: Is not this the fast that I have chosen? to loose the bands of wickedness, to undo the heavy burdens, and to let the oppressed go free,… – Isaiah 58:6 (KJV)
MOTIVATIONAL QUOTES: When you seek the face of God in prayer and fasting, you will be far from oppression.
PRAISE AND WORSHIP: Take praise and worship songs as led by the Holy Spirit.
PROPHETIC WORD FOR TODAY: The weapons of darkness assigned against you shall catch fire, in the Name of Jesus.
MFM Devotional For Today 2026 MESSAGE:
In the Fire Scripture for today, we read and learned of how Ezra, a Jewish priest, called for fasting and prayer for protection for himself and his people, as they journeyed from Babylon to Jerusalem. God answered their prayers and there was peace and protection for them. They arrived their destination safely. Beloved, there is nothing that God cannot do if we commit ourselves to seeking His face. There is nothing too small or too big to take to Him. As He said, “Call unto me, and I will answer thee, and shew thee great and mighty things, which thou knowest not.” (Jeremiah 33:3). Are you stuck on the road to destiny fulfilment? Is there a satanic siege against you? He said He will answer you, if you call upon Him. And I pray today, your cry shall elicit divine response, in the Name of Jesus.

Dearly Beloved, Daniel also sought the face of God in a twenty-one-day prayer and fasting, to seek God’s wisdom and protection, did he get what he wanted? Yes, of course he did! (Daniel 1:12, 10:2-3). God answered Daniel’s prayers and He received visions and insight that helped him interpret dreams and visions and prophecies, he served three kings because of these gifts he received through the 21 days prayer and fasting.
For you to know that fasting and prayer is very important, especially in this dark world, where wickedness is increasing by the day, Jesus also fasted for 40 days and was in the wilderness for that period of time. It was what He needed to jump-start His ministry and that was the reason He succeeded. He is God, but He came as a man to show us the way. He was the One who said without prayer and fasting some demons cannot be cast out (Matthew 4:1-2, Luke 4:1-2).
