MFM Mountain Top Life Daily Devotional 30 January 2019 By Dr. D.K Olukoya – Stay Strong
TOPIC: Stay Strong (Mountain Of Fire and Miracle Ministries, MFM Daily Devotional 30 January 2019)
Bible In One Year: Exodus 23-24; Matthew 20:1-16
FIRE SCRIPTURE: Mark 10:42-45
MEMORY VERSE: “There shall not any man be able to stand before thee all the days of thy life: as I was with Moses, so I will be with thee: I will not fail thee, nor forsake thee.” – Joshua 1:5
The MESSAGE:
One of the ways the enemy troubles God’s children is to bring all kinds of storms into their lives. For many people, as they deal with one storm, the enemy brings another to them. Sometimes too, God allows storms in our lives. Whether the storm you are facing is from the enemy or God, you need to learn to be strong in the face of storm, exercise faith and with authority rebuke it.
There is a rainbow after every storm. Storms are the challenges men and women face in life. Children too face storms. The rich and the poor both face storms. But storms are not permanent. They come and go. If you stay strong during the storm and endure it and overcome it, you will see a rainbow after the storm.
Storm stands for the time of Jacob’s trouble, time of trial and affliction. The rainbow is a symbol of covenant and light at the end of the tunnel. While the period of storm represents the night, the rainbow represents the morning. The Bible says that sorrow may tarry till night but joy comes in the morning (Psalms 30:5).
The Bible says, “Surely there is an end. The expectation of the righteous will not be cut off” (Proverbs 23:18). The storm of no husband has an expiry date. The storm of no child has an expiry date. The storm of poverty has an expiry date. The storm of indebtedness has an expiry date. The storm of ill-health has an expiry date. The storm of joblessness has an expiry date. Darkness does not have the power to last forever. Sorrow may tarry till night, joy comes in the morning.
Job did not fail in the day of adversity. He was strong and he experienced restoration. God gave Joshua a charge to be strong and courageous. He was, and he successfully led the Israelites to the Promised Land.
When storm comes to your life, arise and rebuke it in the name of Jesus. If you have faith, the storm will hear your word and depart. The Lord has given you authority to rebuke storms. He reprimanded his disciples who could not handle the storm they faced but had to call him. He called them men of little faith. He expected them to execute faith and rebuke the storms themselves. Exercise your authority in Christ. Be strong in the Lord!
Beloved, Jesus said that believers will experience tribulation in this world, but they should cheer up because He has overcome the world. The storms of life comes to all people. It can come anytime. That is why you should be strong in the Lord and in the power of His might.
Make God’s word your source of power and strength. As you feed on God’s word and obey His commandments, your faith will increase and you will be able to overcome the storms of life.
MOTIVATIONAL QUOTE:

PROPHETIC WORD:
The storms of life will not swallow you, you shall come triumphantly.
