April 16, 2019 Mountain Of Fire Daily Devotional : TOPIC - The Spirit of Persistence

--> Note :- Are you born again? You are never going to win the battle against the devil if you are not born again. I plead with you to give your life to Jesus today because the longer you stay in sin and remain unsaved, the more hardened your nature becomes against the purpose and the way God wants you to be for His purpose. To give your life to Jesus now, say this prayer: “Father, I come to You in the name of Jesus. I know that I am a sinner and I cannot save myself but Jesus died for me and shed His blood that I might be saved. Today, I accept Jesus as my Lord and Saviour. Jesus, I ask You to come into my heart, be my Lord, wash me with Your blood and make me whole. I believe with my heart and confess with my mouth that Jesus is my Lord. Thank You for saving me. In Jesus' name I pray. Amen.” I congratulate you and welcome you to the family of God if you have sincerely said that prayer. Now you are fit to discover, know and walk in your destiny.

April 16, 2019 Mountain Of Fire Daily Devotional :  TOPIC - The Spirit of Persistence 



TOPIC - The Spirit of Persistence 
BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: 1 Samuel 30-31; Luke 13:23-35
FIRE SCRIPTURE: Luke 18:1-5
MEMORY VERSE: “And many charged him that he should hold his peace: but he cried the more a great deal, Thou son of David, have mercy on me.” – Mark 10:48

The MESSAGE:
In our walk with God as well as in our secular endeavours, one important quality that will make us succeed is persistence. It is the ability to keep working towards your goal in the face of difficulties and challenges. Champions and leaders in secular and spiritual spheres of life would tell you that persistence took them to the top and is the same force that is keeping them there.
What does it mean to Persist?
It means to be insistent i.e to hold fast and steadfast to a purpose despite obstacles, challenges or discouragement. It is to refuse to stop and insist on your goals. One of the wonderful spirits that every believer must possess is the the spirit of persistence. Nothing in life can take the place of persistence. Many believers give up too soon in the things that would have changed their story. In the book of Luke 19:62, the Bible says no man, having put his hand to the plough, and looking back, is fit for the kingdom of God. Many Christians that were fervent in the Lord before suddenly turned back because they lack the spirit of persistence. Many believers that were at the edge of their breakthrough suddenly turned back because they lack the spirit of persistence.
It was the spirit of persistence that made the woman in our Fire Scripture to win the heart of that Judge who feared not God, neither regardeth man. Some people in the Bible became celebrity even when the world had completely written them off. Somebody like Hannah would have remained a barren woman but because she possessed the spirit of persistence, she became the mother of one of the greatest judges and prophets in the Bible. Elisha would have remained like the other sons of the prophets, but because of the spirit of persistence in him, he received the double portion of his master, Elijah’s spirit.
The spirit of persistence will help you not to miss the day of your visitation. It will help you to overcome the spirit of failure at the edge of breakthrough. It will help you not to fall in the day of adversity. It was the spirit of persistence that kept Bartimeus shout to Jesus for mercy and help, even when others were telling him to keep quite. The spirit of persistence got Bartimeus Jesus’ attention, the restoration of his sight and the change of his story.
Whatsoever that will bring sweetness will also bring sweat and whatsoever will bring gain will also cause pain. Beloved, endless laughter cannot just come without any challenge. When you say you are tired of coming to church, tired of fasting, praying and studying the word of God, the enemy is not tired of launching his attacks against you. Be persistent and the Lord shall see you through, in Jesus’ name.
MOTIVATIONAL QUOTE:YOU MAY ENCOUNTER MANY DEFEAT, BUT YOU MUST NOT BE DEFEATED.
PROPHETIC WORD:Expected and unexpected breakthrough shall come to you.

  1. I will not give up at the edge of my miracles, in the name of Jesus.
