MFM DAILY DEVOTIONAL FOR SUNDAY 31ST OCTOBER 2021 – WORLDLY PLEASURE AND PRESSURE

MOUNTAIN TOP LIFE DAILY DEVOTIONAL FOR TODAY

Mountain Top Life daily devotional by Dr. Pst D.K Olukoya of the Mountain of Fire Ministry for today is here. Digest the word of the lord and pray believing.

TOPIC: WORLDLY PLEASURE AND PRESSURE

BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: Matthew 23, Luke 20-21

FIRE SCRIPTURE: 1John 2:15

Memory verse: 1John 2:15

“Do not love the world or the things in the world. If anyone loves the world, the love of the Father is not in him.”

Motivational Quote: Christians must live in the world but not let the world live in them.

Prophetic Word: Grace to obey and comply with God’s law and precepts is released to you, in the name of Jesus.

The Bible tells us not to love the world (I John 2:15). Here, “world” means the world system, the value system of undegenerated humans—the attitudes, desires, loves, cares, and priorities of sinful ﬂesh. The world is a system controlled by satan, who operates through cultures that have little regard for God.

Christians must live in their culture, but they dare not take their lead from it. The world system in which we live is the enemy’s territory. It is not neutral. Worldliness is anything that makes sin look attractive and righteousness look silly. We are worldly whenever we live and love and choose on the same basis as people who don’t love God.

A Christian striving for power in a church or exploding at his wife at home can be as worldly as a person guzzling drinks at a bar. We are in a season where many people exist just for ﬂeshly pleasure; the ﬂesh has become the god of many people. The devil has given many people abundance of ﬂesh-satisfying agenda.

We see the homosexuals, lesbians and people spending hours on internet games, video games, Facebook, twitter, YouTube etc. Most young ladies are prostituting not necessarily because they love living as prostitutes but because they want to look ‘beautiful’ like others – wear ﬂashy and expensive dresses and gold jewelleries, drive the latest cars, and move about with all forms of vanities.

In many places, the New Testament regards the life of a Christian as a life lived in tension. On the one hand, all true believers have had their lives renewed by the Holy Spirit. We saw how John speaks of this reality by reminding us that all Christians know God, have had their sins forgiven, and have overcome the evil one (1 John 2:12–14).

Though this new life gives us the ability to resist sin, the tension of the Christian life resides in the fact that the presence of sin has not yet been eliminated completely. We have the ability to resist temptation, but at the same time we will not do so perfectly. God has granted us a role to play in our perseverance and so we need to be warned against falling into sin.

It is important to note that when John speaks of the world here, he is not referring to nature or to human beings. Rather, he is speaking of the world system that sets itself up in opposition to the things of God. Note that the world in today’s devotional should be understood as everything connected with this present life, apart from the kingdom of God and the hope of eternal life.

SEEDS OF DESTINY FOR MONDAY 1ST NOVEMBER 2021 – PRAISE AND THE POWER FOR INCREASE

SEEDS OF DESTINY FOR TODAY

Seeds of Destiny devotional by Dr. Pst Paul Enencheof the Dunamis Gospel Centre for today is here. Enjoy this refreshing, instructive, soul-lifting and life-changing content.

TOPIC: Praise And The Power For Increase

Praise is a secret of increase in life.

Scripture: Psalm 67:5-7

Let the people praise thee, O God; let all the people praise thee. Then shall the earth yield her increase; and God, even our own God, shall bless us. God shall bless us; and all the ends of the earth shall fear him.

Thought for The Day: Praise is a secret of increase in life.

You are welcome to the month of November 2021. This November is very significant to us as we shall be marking our 25th Anniversary as a Commission. The Lord has been faithful to us in multi-faceted dimensions in these twenty-five years. We give Him all the praise.

On this first day of the month of November 2021, we shall consider the subject of praise to show our appreciation to God for His faithfulness in our lives and in the Ministry for the past twenty-five years.

The subject of praise has been confirmed to be of critical importance to children of God. Praise is very important to life and destiny. If a person’s life must be profitable on earth, praise must not be ignored. There is power in praise.

One critical power of praise is that praise is key to accessing God and His Presence. God dwells in the life of a person who praises Him. God lives in or inhabits the praises of His people (Psalm 22:3). This means, one who praises God is building a habitation or house for God to dwell in.

Praise also brings increase. Praise is pregnant with the power for increase. Our anchor Scripture makes it clear that praise is a secret of increase in life. When people praise God, the earth yields her increase.

If there is anything in your life as a Christian that seems not to increase, praise is a key to its increase. For example, if you are an anointed servant of God and you are trusting God for a greater dimension of the anointing, praise is a key to that increase.

In any area of your life that you desire increase, praise is your pathway. The grace, fire, revelation, insight and favour of God on your life will increase when you understand and implement the principle of praise and worship.

Remember this: Praise is a secret of increase in life.

ASSIGNMENTS:

Make up your mind to praise God always.
Allow nothing to keep you down.

PRAYER: Lord, I ask that You clothe me with the garment of praise. Help me to praise You at all times, Lord, in Jesus’ Name.

FOR FURTHER UNDERSTANDING, GET THIS MESSAGE: UNDERSTANDING PRAISE AND WORSHIP.

QUOTE: To live a life of praise and worship is to access Divine preservation. Culled from “15 KINGDOM STRATEGIES FOR SURVIVAL” by Dr Paul Enenche.

DAILY READING: John 10-12

REFLECTION: The major purpose of man’s existence is the praise and worship of God. It is wasteful existence to function without praise.

PROPHETIC DECLARATION/WORD: Receive the release of the garment of praise in this season in Jesus’

OPEN HEAVENS DEVOTIONAL FOR MONDAY 1ST NOVEMBER 2021 – VICTORY OVER TEMPTATIONS

OPEN HEAVENS DAILY DEVOTIONAL FOR TODAY.

Open Heavens daily devotional by Pastor E. A Adeboye of the Redeemed Christian Church of God for today is here. Digest the word of the lord and pray believing.

TOPIC: Victory Over Temptations

MEMORISE: James 1:12

“Blessed is the man that endureth temptation: for when he is tried, he shall receive the crown of life, which the Lord hath promised to them that love him.”

READ: Proverbs 1:11-15 (KJV)

11. If they say, Come with us, let us lay wait for blood, let us lurk privily for the innocent without cause;
12. Let us swallow them up alive as the grave; and whole, as those that go down into the pit;
13. We shall find all precious substance, we shall fill our houses with spoil;
14. Cast in thy lot among us; let us all have one purse;
15. My son, walk not thou in the way with them; refrain thy foot from their path;

The irony of life in the spiritual realm is that the devil is the prosecutor. The Bible says in Revelation 12:9-10 And the great dragon was cast out that old serpent, called the Devil, and Satan, which deceiveth the whole world: he was cast out into the earth, and his angels were cast out with him. And I heard a loud voice saying in heaven, Now is come salvation and strength, and the kingdom of our God, and the power of his Christ: for the accuser of our brethren is cast down, which accused them before our God day and night. Despite the Scripture above, there are blessings attached to overcoming temptations. Revelations 2:26 says ”And he that overcometh, and keepeth my works unto the end, to him I give power over the nations”.

It takes genuine love for God to be able to overcome temptation. Joseph in Egypt was able to overcome the temptation of sleeping with his master’s wife because of the love he had for God (Genesis 39:9). Today’s text gives us some insight as to how we can overcome temptations – we are to avoid the company of sinners and reject their ways. There would always be temptations as long as we are alive. Temptation in itself is not a sin, but falling into it is the sin. The sinful thoughts that the devil flashes at you do not become sins until you begin to entertain and act on them. It is our resistance that makes us overcomers.

Hebrews 12:4 says: “Ye have not yet resisted unto blood, striving sin.” We must also avoid doing anything that could bring about temptations. For example, why would you carry a member of the opposite sex that is not your spouse in your lap? Remember you are still flesh and blood. Let us learn from Joseph who fled Potiphar’s wife’s seduction so as not to sin against God (Genesis 39:7-12). God has promised to always provide for us a way of escape from every temptation (1 Corinthians 10:13). Joseph used the route God provided and the enemy was unable to destroy the glory ahead of him. I pray you will always overcome every temptation from now, in Jesus’ name.

PRAYER POINT: Father, ”…Lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil…”(Mathew 6:13)

BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: Ecclesiastes 10-12

DCLM DAILY MANNA DEVOTIONAL SUNDAY 31ST OCTOBER 2021 – COME OUT OR PERISH

DEEPER LIFE DAILY MANNA DEVOTIONAL FOR TODAY.

Daily Manna devotional by Pastor W.F Kumuyi of the Deeper Christian Life Ministry for today is here. Digest the word of the lord and pray believing.

TOPIC: Come Out Or Perish

TEXT: Revelation 18:1-8

1. And after these things I saw another angel come down from heaven, having great power; and the earth was lightened with his glory.

2. And he cried mightily with a strong voice, saying, Babylon the great is fallen, is fallen, and is become the habitation of devils, and the hold of every foul spirit, and a cage of every unclean and hateful bird.

3. For all nations have drunk of the wine of the wrath of her fornication, and the kings of the earth have committed fornication with her, and the merchants of the earth are waxed rich through the abundance of her delicacies.

4. And I heard another voice from heaven, saying, Come out of her, my people, that ye be not partakers of her sins, and that ye receive not of her plagues.

5. For her sins have reached unto heaven, and God hath remembered her iniquities.

6. Reward her even as she rewarded you, and double unto her double according to her works; in the cup which she hath filled fill to her double.

7. How much she hath glorified herself, and lived deliciously, so much torment and sorrow give her; for she saith in her heart, I sit a queen, and am no widow, and shall see no sorrow.

8. Therefore shall her plagues come in one day, death, and mourning, and famine; and she shall be utterly burned with fire; for strong is the Lord God who judgeth her.

Key Verse: Revelation 18:4

“And I heard another voice from heaven saying, Come out of her my people, that ye be not partakers of her sins and that ye receive not of her plagues.”

As God was about to destroy Sodom and Gomorrah, Lot was told to go and bring out any person he wanted delivered before the fire would fall. He went to his sons-in-law and asked them to come out because God was about to destroy the city but he “seemed as one that mocked” (Genesis 19:14). They remained in Sodom and were eventually consumed with the city. The bright angel from heaven in our text announced the fall of Babylon. The city was being judged because she had corrupted all the nations.

Before this, an announcement was made for God’s people to come out of her lest they become partakers of her sins and plagues. The sins of Babylon had reached up to heaven and so, the judgment could no longer be withheld. God warns, “come out from among them, and be ye separate… and touch not the unclean thing; and I will receive you, And will be a Father unto you, and ye shall be my sons and daughters, saith the Lord Almighty” (2 Corinthians 6:17,18).

The “unclean thing” is sin. It may be lying, hatred, anger, adultery, fornication, drunkenness, occultism and so on. All that practice such shall not inherit the kingdom of God. As it was in the time of Noah and Lot, the world shall soon experience the mighty hand of God’s judgment. This is the time to come out of Babylon and her evil ways through repentance from sin and faith in Christ and His finished work. The world has neglected God’s overtures of love and mercy for so long. “He that being often reproved hardeneth his neck, shall suddenly be destroyed, and that without remedy” (Proverbs 29:1). Escape today for your life.

THOUGHT FOR THE DAY: Don’t partake of the plagues of Babylon, come out.

THE BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: Jeremiah 28-30

RHAPSODY OF REALITIES FOR SUNDAY 31ST OCTOBER 2021 – DOMINION OVER DARKNESS

RHAPSODY OF REALITIES FOR TODAY.

Rhapsody of Realities daily devotional by Pastor Chris Oyakhilome of the Love World Ministry Inc. for today is here. Digest the word of the lord and pray believing in his promise.

TOPIC: Dominion Over Darkness

Today’s Scripture:

Giving thanks unto the Father…Who hath delivered us from the power of darkness, and hath translated us into the kingdom of his dear Son.

Being born again, you’re superior to Satan; you defeated Satan in and with Jesus—in Satan’s own domain—hell! Colossians 2:15 (NIV) says, “And having disarmed the powers and authorities, he made a public spectacle of them, triumphing over them by the cross.” When Jesus did this, you were in Him. Hallelujah!

Therefore, you’re not under the authority, dominion, jurisdiction, or powers of darkness; they can’t affect your life anymore. Where you are is a realm they can’t attain to or approach; it’s the Kingdom of God’s dear Son. You’re not supposed to be at the mercy of demons. But the problem is that many in the Church haven’t exercised their authority and dominion over Satan and the powers of darkness.

In dealing with Satan, there’s no need for argument or pointless tussle. Jesus didn’t say, “You shall “push” away or tussle with devils in my Name”; He said, “… cast out devils…” (Mark 16:17); that is, kick out, throw out, fling off with force. You give them commands. Hallelujah! You’ve got to put the Word of God to work. If, for example, the devil is causing you Essential Tremor—causing your hands, head, trunk, voice or legs to shake rhythmically—you say, “Hold on, devil! I belong in the Kingdom of Christ, not in the domain of darkness. Therefore, in the Name of Jesus, body, I command this anomaly to stop!” That’ll be the end of that trouble. When you insist, your body will comply, because God’s Word is law! Nothing can resist the power in the Name of Jesus.

The Lord has given you power (authority) to tread on serpents and scorpions and over all the ability of the enemy, and nothing shall by any means hurt you. Satan has no right to run things in your life or in your home or in the lives of your loved ones, because you’re one with Christ, vested with all power and authority in heaven and in the earth to subdue Satan, dominate circumstances, and take charge of your world. Glory to God!

CONFESSION

The Lord has given me power to tread upon serpents and scorpions, and over all the abilities of the enemy; and nothing shall by any means hurt me. Satan has no right to run things in my life, or in my home or in the lives of my loved ones, because I’ve been vested with all power and authority in heaven and in earth to subdue, dominate and take charge of my world. Hallelujah!
