[MFM Mountain Top Life Devotional 28 October 2019] Topic: Be Your Family Intercessor
Topic: Be Your Family Intercessor
BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: Jeremiah 15-17; 2 Timothy 2
FIRE SCRIPTURE: Philippians 1:3-4
MEMORY VERSE: “Pray without ceasing.” – 1 Thessalonians 5:17
MESSAGE: Prayer is a weapon of spiritual warfare that every family should make good use of if satan and his activities must be defeated and destroyed in our homes and families as Christians. Every family member needs prayers; husbands need the prayers of their wives; wives need the prayers of their husbands; children need the prayers of their parents and parents need the prayers of their children.
Isaac interceded for his barren wife, Rebekah, and God opened her womb. Rebekah interceded for her unborn twins, Esau and Jacob (Genesis 25:21-23). Job was a praying father who always interceded for his children (Job 1:5).
Abigail was a sensible and intelligent woman who played a big role to protect her husband and her entire household from the anger of David. In her wisdom and discretion through intercession, Abigail delivered her husband, Nabal, from gruesome death planned for him by David’s troops (1 Samuel 25).
As parents, altar of prayers must be raised in our homes not only for us but more importantly for our children. In prayers the hearts and ways of our children will be committed into God’s hand for leading and direction that they may fulfil their destinies.
Dear parents, Jesus is our intercessor. The Bible says that he is able to deliver those who come to the Father through Him because He daily makes intercession for them. What an excellent Father Jesus is. If Christ is making daily intercession for us, we too ought to be making daily intercession for our natural and spiritual children. Beloved, this is our responsibility and we must not shirk it.
