TOPIC: Lessons From The Life Of Judas Iscariot (VII) (Mountain Of Fire and Miracle Ministries, MFM Devotional 15 September 2023)
BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: Isaiah 35, Isaiah 36, Luke 1, Luke 2
FIRE SCRIPTURE: Acts 1:15-20 (KJV)
15 And in those days Peter stood up in the midst of the disciples, and said, (the number of names together were about an hundred and twenty,)
16 Men and brethren, this scripture must needs have been fulfilled, which the Holy Ghost by the mouth of David spake before concerning Judas, which was guide to them that took Jesus.
17 For he was numbered with us, and had obtained part of this ministry.
18 Now this man purchased a field with the reward of iniquity; and falling headlong, he burst asunder in the midst, and all his bowels gushed out.
19 And it was known unto all the dwellers at Jerusalem; insomuch as that field is called in their proper tongue, Aceldama, that is to say, The field of blood.
20 For it is written in the book of Psalms, Let his habitation be desolate, and let no man dwell therein: and his bishoprick let another take.
MEMORY VERSE: “For I have no pleasure in the death of him that dieth, saith the Lord God: wherefore turn yourselves, and live ye.” – Ezekiel 18:32 (KJV)

MFM Devotional For Today 2023 MESSAGE:
We have been looking at the pitfalls in Judas’ life. I am sure you have not lost tract in the last few days. Don’t be a judge to Judas but be a student that is learning from him to avoid the pitfalls.
Sad enough, Judas never thought of repentance, yet this glorious opportunity is available to every child of God. This is because God knows our human frailty. He gave us the opportunity to repent from sin, so that we can be restored and reconciled to Him in love.
There is always room for repentance, but Judas gave up on Jesus and hanged himself. There is no sin that God cannot forgive and no matter how anyone has gone in the miry clay of life, God can restore such. I strongly believe that if Judas had truly repented and gone back to God after the episode of betrayal, he would have been pardoned according to God’s words in Isaiah 1:18, “Come now, and let us reason together, saith the LORD: though your sins be as scarlet, they shall be as white as snow; though they be red like crimson, they shall be as wool.”
Dearly beloved, Jesus is calling you today. Where have you missed it and fallen short of His glory? Don’t give up on Jesus. No matter how far you have gone in sin, you can always come back home. His arms of love are opened wide, waiting for you to return home. The Father’s love is forever available to welcome home the prodigal child. Nothing in this world should make a child of God to commit suicide; it is an expressway to hell. Suicide is no option. Only the fools and the weak, the ignorant and the godless indulge in it. Do not feel too big to come back to your Maker in repentance.
Sometimes, you may have genuinely repented but the devil is still bringing to you the voice of guilt and shame; rebuke him in the name of the Lord and forge ahead. The door of grace is still widely opened; come in now while you have the opportunity. Tomorrow may be too late!
PRAYER POINTS:
MORNING
Voice of perdition speaking against my life, shut up and die, in the name of Jesus.
Wicked voices calling me from the grave, you are a liar, shut up and die, in the name of Jesus.
You my life, refuse to obey evil command, in the name of Jesus.
EVENING
The devil will not harvest my soul, in the name of Jesus.
Wicked powers commanding me to kill myself, you are mad, destroy yourself and be wasted, in the name of Jesus.
I shall not die a grievous death, in the name of Jesus.
I decree that my life is hid with Christ in God, in the name of Jesus.
