1 God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble.
2 Therefore will not we fear, though the earth be removed, and though the mountains be carried into the midst of the sea;
3 Though the waters thereof roar and be troubled, though the mountains shake with the swelling thereof. Selah.
4 There is a river, the streams whereof shall make glad the city of God, the holy place of the tabernacles of the most High.
5 God is in the midst of her; she shall not be moved: God shall help her, and that right early.
6 The heathen raged, the kingdoms were moved: he uttered his voice, the earth melted.
7 The Lord of hosts is with us; the God of Jacob is our refuge. Selah.
8 Come, behold the works of the Lord, what desolations he hath made in the earth.
9 He maketh wars to cease unto the end of the earth; he breaketh the bow, and cutteth the spear in sunder; he burneth the chariot in the fire.
10 Be still, and know that I am God: I will be exalted among the heathen, I will be exalted in the earth.
11 The Lord of hosts is with us; the God of Jacob is our refuge. Selah.

MFM Devotional For Today 2023 MESSAGE:
Life is full of battles. Going through life there are many challenges and hurdles to overcome, if one must live a life of dominion which the Lord has promised His own children. However, to overcome you can’t fold your hands and mope. Rather, you must swing into action, by faith, and constant communion with God through His word and fervent prayers.

Many men and women have had to go through troubles at different stages of life looking forward to victory in God. Others are going through theirs even now. Often, he human strength is never enough and you end achieving nothing, except one abides in the Lord. The Bible says, vain is the help of man; some trust in horses and some in horses but they failed woefully. But those who trust in the name of the Lord shall overcome and remain standing by the power of God (Psalm 20:7-8)
Pharaoh failed with all his battle strategies and prowess, God outplayed him, his horsemen and their chariots. They all rushed furiously after God’s children but perished in the Red Sea which closed up on them and swallow them forever. What of Goliath, the Philistine giant and warrior who boasted and intimidated the army of Israel for so long, so much that they became weary for fear. In spite of his huge armour, the little boy David came with the unseen armour of God, but visible was his sling and five pebbles as a shepherd boy.
Amazingly, armed with God’s power, cloaked in the might of the Lord God of Israel, he brought down this harassing and tormenting enemy with just one stone of fire. So shall your enemies be subdued in the name of Jesus.
This tells us that to receive the strength and power to overcome life battles as a Christian, it must be from the Lord who is forever our Strength and Refuge; every time and everywhere. He knows our weaknesses and frailties, hence He’s forever available to uphold and sustain us at times of difficulties by His valiant power that never fails. He gives strength to the weak. It doesn’t matter what your situation is. God is ever ready to strengthen and support you all the way.
Surrender your life, your battles and your struggles to God today. Accept Jesus as your Lord and Saviour. When He takes over, you can go to rest and rejoice because He has conquered on your behalf. Be armed with the Word of God, it is the sword of the Spirit for Christians. Get ready to pray all kinds of prayers without fainting and you’ll disarm your adversaries. When you start to praise God, He will lay ambush for your enemies like He did in 2 Chronicles 20.
