TOPIC: Christ: The Binding Force (I) (Mountain Of Fire and Miracle Ministries, MFM Devotional 6 May 2022)
BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: Judges 4, Judges 5, John 4:43-54, John 5:1-15, Psalm 57:1-6
FIRE SCRIPTURE: 2 Corinthians 3:1-18 (KJV)
1 Do we begin again to commend ourselves? or need we, as some others, epistles of commendation to you, or letters of commendation from you?
2 Ye are our epistle written in our hearts, known and read of all men:3 Forasmuch as ye are manifestly declared to be the epistle of Christ ministered by us, written not with ink, but with the Spirit of the living God; not in tables of stone, but in fleshy tables of the heart.
4 And such trust have we through Christ to God-ward:
5 Not that we are sufficient of ourselves to think any thing as of ourselves; but our sufficiency is of God;
6 Who also hath made us able ministers of the new testament; not of the letter, but of the spirit: for the letter killeth, but the spirit giveth life.
7 But if the ministration of death, written and engraven in stones, was glorious, so that the children of Israel could not stedfastly behold the face of Moses for the glory of his countenance; which glory was to be done away:
8 How shall not the ministration of the spirit be rather glorious?
9 For if the ministration of condemnation be glory, much more doth the ministration of righteousness exceed in glory.
10 For even that which was made glorious had no glory in this respect, by reason of the glory that excelleth.
11 For if that which is done away was glorious, much more that which remaineth is glorious.
12 Seeing then that we have such hope, we use great plainness of speech:
13 And not as Moses, which put a veil over his face, that the children of Israel could not stedfastly look to the end of that which is abolished:3 Forasmuch as ye are manifestly declared to be the epistle of Christ ministered by us, written not with ink, but with the Spirit of the living God; not in tables of stone, but in fleshy tables of the heart.
4 And such trust have we through Christ to God-ward:
5 Not that we are sufficient of ourselves to think any thing as of ourselves; but our sufficiency is of God;
6 Who also hath made us able ministers of the new testament; not of the letter, but of the spirit: for the letter killeth, but the spirit giveth life.
7 But if the ministration of death, written and engraven in stones, was glorious, so that the children of Israel could not stedfastly behold the face of Moses for the glory of his countenance; which glory was to be done away:
8 How shall not the ministration of the spirit be rather glorious?
9 For if the ministration of condemnation be glory, much more doth the ministration of righteousness exceed in glory.
10 For even that which was made glorious had no glory in this respect, by reason of the glory that excelleth.
11 For if that which is done away was glorious, much more that which remaineth is glorious.
12 Seeing then that we have such hope, we use great plainness of speech:
13 And not as Moses, which put a veil over his face, that the children of Israel could not stedfastly look to the end of that which is abolished:14 But their minds were blinded: for until this day remaineth the same vail untaken away in the reading of the old testament; which vail is done away in Christ.
15 But even unto this day, when Moses is read, the vail is upon their heart.
16 Nevertheless when it shall turn to the Lord, the vail shall be taken away.
17 Now the Lord is that Spirit: and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is liberty.
18 But we all, with open face beholding as in a glass the glory of the Lord, are changed into the same image from glory to glory, even as by the Spirit of the Lord.
MEMORY VERSE: “Now the Lord is that Spirit: and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is liberty.” – 2 Corinthians 3:17
MOTIVATIONAL QUOTES:
Family liberation is the bedrock of progress.
PRAISE AND WORSHIP:
Take praise and worship songs as led by the Holy Spirit.
PROPHETIC WORD FOR TODAY:
THE FORCES OF FAMILY DESTRUCTION SHALL NOT PROSPER IN YOUR FAMILY, IN THE NAME OF JESUS.
MFM Devotional For Today MESSAGE:
Many people are yet to realise that the redemption work of our Lord Jesus Christ can also set them free from any evil family pattern running in their families. With the wonderful provision of deliverance by the Almighty God through His Son Jesus Christ, there is no reason why any family should be in any form of bondage. Before we talk about deliverance from evil family pattern, we need to examine ourselves as families and ask questions such as: Are we fulfilling the divine agenda for our lives? Are we actually models of success in every area of life? Are we the kind of family that others can look up to as good examples to follow? Can God count on us like He could vouch for Abraham concerning his family, that he would command them to keep the way of the Lord, to do justice and judgement? (Genesis 18:18-19).

Beloved, it will be a worthwhile exercise to carry out an assessment of your family and see how you are doing over the years and if possible generations. Are you born again? If yes, what about other members of your family? Is everyone born again? If you are the only one born again in your family, then you have a lot of work to do. The responsibility lies on you to intercede for the salvation of other members of your family.
I want you to understand that the peace of God will reign supreme when everyone or majority of your family members are born again. There will be unity of purpose, and the spiritual battles confronting the family will be easier to fight when everyone involved has understanding and is speaking with one voice. The enemy thrives in disunity and discord so, he always ensures that there is continuous strife among family members in order to limit their chances or ability to put up a common front against him.
PRAYER POINTS:
MORNING
- Every curse of backwardness issued against my family, break, in the name of Jesus.
- O Lord, deliver my family from destruction, in the name of Jesus.
- O Lord, turn the hearts of my family members that are not born again to You, in the name of Jesus.
EVENING
- Every power enforcing darkness in my family, die, in the name of Jesus.
- Father Lord, let Your glorious light shine in my family, in the name of Jesus.
- Forces of destruction assigned against my family, die, in the name of Jesus.
- Glory of God, overshadow my family, in the name of Jesus.
