MFM Daily Devotional 29th August 2020 [Saturday] – Power To Overcome Your “But” 2
Topic: Power To Overcome Your “But” 2 (Mountain Of Fire and Miracle Ministries, MFM Daily Devotional 29th August 2020)
FIRE SCRIPTURE: 2 King 5:1-14 (NIV)
1 Now Naaman was commander of the army of the king of Aram. He was a great man in the sight of his master and highly regarded, because through him the LORD had given victory to Aram. He was a valiant soldier, but he had leprosy.
2 Now bands of raiders from Aram had gone out and had taken captive a young girl from Israel, and she served Naaman’s wife.
3 She said to her mistress, “If only my master would see the prophet who is in Samaria! He would cure him of his leprosy.”
4 Naaman went to his master and told him what the girl from Israel had said.
5 “By all means, go,” the king of Aram replied. “I will send a letter to the king of Israel.” So Naaman left, taking with him ten talents of silver, six thousand shekels of gold and ten sets of clothing.
6 The letter that he took to the king of Israel read: “With this letter I am sending my servant Naaman to you so that you may cure him of his leprosy.”
7 As soon as the king of Israel read the letter, he tore his robes and said, “Am I God? Can I kill and bring back to life? Why does this fellow send someone to me to be cured of his leprosy? See how he is trying to pick a quarrel with me!”
8 When Elisha the man of God heard that the king of Israel had torn his robes, he sent him this message: “Why have you torn your robes? Have the man come to me and he will know that there is a prophet in Israel.”
9 So Naaman went with his horses and chariots and stopped at the door of Elisha’s house.
10 Elisha sent a messenger to say to him, “Go, wash yourself seven times in the Jordan, and your flesh will be restored and you will be cleansed.”
11 But Naaman went away angry and said, “I thought that he would surely come out to me and stand and call on the name of the LORD his God, wave his hand over the spot and cure me of my leprosy.
12 Are not Abana and Pharpar, the rivers of Damascus, better than all the waters of Israel? Couldn’t I wash in them and be cleansed?” So he turned and went off in a rage.
13 Naaman’s servants went to him and said, “My father, if the prophet had told you to do some great thing, would you not have done it? How much more, then, when he tells you, ‘Wash and be cleansed’!”
14 So he went down and dipped himself in the Jordan seven times, as the man of God had told him, and his flesh was restored and became clean like that of a young boy.
MFM MEMORY VERSE: Luke 4:27 (NIV)
“And there were many in Israel with leprosyin the time of Elisha the prophet, yet not one of them was cleansed—only Naaman the Syrian.”
PRAISE AND WORSHIP: Take a worship song as led by the Holy Spirit.
PROPHETIC WORD: Every yoke of disturbance, let the yoke be broken, in the name of Jesus.
MOUNTAIN TOP LIFE 29TH AUGUST 2020 – POWER TO OVERCOME YOUR “BUT” 2
What we are considering today will provide solution to problems which many are going through. Beloved, you are reminded, as you read yesterday that the three letter word, but, can change everything. You must challenge any such thing that is challenging the glory of God in your life. Do you know that a single ‘but’ can wipe away all your fantastic positive qualities?
Many Biblical giants or potential giants lost out as a result of one single “but” in their lives. Moses was a mighty prophet, but he had a ‘but’ called anger and that anger did not allow Him to enter into the Promise Land. The ‘but’ swallowed his entry visa into the Promise Land. Gehazi might have been a mighty prophet, and indeed he might have been a prophet of fire and thunder like his master, Elisha; but he had the ‘but’ of covetousness and the love of money.
That singular ‘but’ deported Gehazi to the land of lepers. David was an excellent psalmist a powerful soldier, a great musician and an outstanding prayer warrior. But, he had the singular giant but seductive ‘BUT’ of sexual immorality which denied him of part of the glorious position that God reserved for him. What is that ‘but’ troubling your heart now? Are you the kind of person who is greatly gifted but has contacted one character deficit? What is the ‘but’ troubling your Israel today?
Call upon the God of perfection. Call upon Him who is known as the El-Shaddai. Cry to Him, whose power knows no comparison. Run to Him who can render diviners mad. Hide under Him whose power can swallow all powers. Seek for Him who has the Superior Power, the Unquenchable Power, the Unchallengeable Power, the Unsearchable Power, the Awesome Power, the Everlasting Power and the Supreme Power. Recline on Him whose power can change anything or anyone.
As Naaman received the information to overcome his ‘but’, you are being provided the information that will bring out positive changes in your life. Naaman got the information that there was a possibility that could wipe out his ‘but’ and he positively used the information to rid himself the problem of the burden. The information you are receiving now should be converted to a great weapon of victory. What is the but is your life? Get ready to rid yourself of it today. Jesus is spreading His hands of love to receive you and wash away your “but.”
MOTIVATIONAL QUOTE: God takes no delight in seeing you become the landlord of your present environment. You are expected to break new grounds, attain new levels and record fresh achievements.
