TOPIC: Laodicea: The Lukewarm Church (III) (Mountain Of Fire and Miracle Ministries, MFM Devotional 3 December 2021)
BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: Romans 4-7
FIRE SCRIPTURE: Revelation 3:14-22
14 And unto the angel of the church of the Laodiceans write; These things saith the Amen, the faithful and true witness, the beginning of the creation of God;
15 I know thy works, that thou art neither cold nor hot: I would thou wert cold or hot.
16 So then because thou art lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot, I will spue thee out of my mouth.
17 Because thou sayest, I am rich, and increased with goods, and have need of nothing; and knowest not that thou art wretched, and miserable, and poor, and blind, and naked:
18 I counsel thee to buy of me gold tried in the fire, that thou mayest be rich; and white raiment, that thou mayest be clothed, and that the shame of thy nakedness do not appear; and anoint thine eyes with eyesalve, that thou mayest see.
19 As many as I love, I rebuke and chasten: be zealous therefore, and repent.
20 Behold, I stand at the door, and knock: if any man hear my voice, and open the door, I will come in to him, and will sup with him, and he with me.
21 To him that overcometh will I grant to sit with me in my throne, even as I also overcame, and am set down with my Father in his throne.
22 He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches.
MEMORY VERSE: “To him that overcometh will I grant to sit with me in my throne, even as I also overcame, and am set down with my Father in his throne.” – Revelation 3:21
MOTIVATIONAL QUOTE:
To overcome the wiles of the devil is to be consistent with Christ in our fellowship and devotion.
PRAISE WORSHIP: Take a worship song as led by the Holy Spirit
PROPHETIC WORD FOR TODAY:
I DECREE THAT NO POWER SHALL KEEP YOU AWAY FROM THE ALTAR OF GOD, IN THE NAME OF JESUS.
Mountain Top Life MESSAGE:
We have already established that the Laodecia Church was lukewarm. Now, we also have so many churches and individuals who are lackadaisical in the things of God. Perhaps, because they are materially comfortable, they feel they do not need God or anybody for that matter. When you approach some individuals to preach the gospel, they will assess you from your head to your toes, hiss and go away.
A prominent man of God was invited to the birthday party of someone of high social status. The man of God said that he had already prepared the sermon he was going to preach and had prayed on it. He sat down when he got to the venue and the rich, mighty and famous personalities in the society were there with their expensive clothes and jewelry. In fact, it was like a fashion competition. When it was time to preach his sermon, the servant of God said that the Holy Spirit told him to change his sermon and preach something else, titled “You Need a Miracle”. He was arguing in his mind that, “Ha, this very rich people? Miracle?” Nonetheless, he changed the sermon and preached the message of the Holy Spirit, “You need a Miracle”. After the sermon, the celebrant came out and said that the message was for him. What happened? His first son was an imbecile.
Beloved, Christ is knocking on the door of a lukewarm church and the heart of individuals. He desires to come in and restore His companionship and blessing with the people. To those who remain devoted and strong in their faith and are overcomers in the midst of a lukewarm church, Christ promises that they will share in His authority and ultimately reign with Him. You want to reign with Him? Then you need to repent and restore fellowship with Him; He is calling with open arms.
PRAYER POINTS:
MORNING
Spiritual carelessness, depart from my life, in the name of Jesus.
My evil past will not destroy my relationship with God, in the name of Jesus.
My Father, fill me with Your Spirit, in the name of Jesus.
EVENING
Generational sin and iniquity in my family line, be terminated, in the name of Jesus.
I shall arise by the power of the Holy Ghost, in the name of Jesus.
Every yoke assigned to reposition my walk with God, break, in the name of Jesus.
Holy Ghost fire, heat up my lukewarm heart, in the name of Jesus.
