YOU HAVE TO FIGHT Deuteronomy 20:1-4 Devotional:- “When you go out to battle against your enemies, and see horses and chariots and people more numerous than you, do not be afraid of them; for the LORD your God is with you, who brought you up from the land of Egypt” (V. 4) NKJV      God’s children must come to realize that our victory has been purchased by by the blood of Jesus, but we have to fight to establish it in our lives. If you have to face the devil, it will be impossible to defeat him. he was in a greater glory before than you are now. He has been in a battle game before the creation of man (Revelation 12:7-8). He knows far more than we do.

BUILD THE ALTAR

BUILD THE ALTAR

1 KINGS 18:32-40
DEVOTIONAL: “And he put the wood in order, cut the bull in pieces, and laid it on the wood, and said, "Fill four waterpots with water, and pour it on the burnt sacrifice and on the wood." (Vs. 33).

    Anyone who wants to relate with God for effective prayer must build an altar of prayer. This altar is built in the heart. In the Old Testament, it was usually built in particular places where God’s presence dwelt and was called the temple of God. However, in the New Testament, the Bible says that we are the temple of God (1 Cor. 3:16). If we are the temple of God, then the altar is in our hearts.
    As a man of God, Elijah used to prepare the altar of God before praying, by arranging stones, putting wood and the meat of sacrifice with water. That was why before he finished calling on God, fire always came down. To build the altar of God in our hearts, we must put those necessary materials together. The wood represents the word of God (Prov. 26:20), the stone represents Jesus who is the word Himself (John 1:14), the water represents the word of God and the Holy Spirit (John 7:37-38, Isa. 55:10-11).

    It is important to always gather the covenant word of God to pray with before praying. This is the reason the Bible tells us to let the word dwell in us richly (Colossians 3:16). When the word of God dwells in you, you will have the right covenant words to remind God when you pray. Then your prayers will always be answered in Jesus’ name. Peace!

Prayer: Lord, give me a heart for the word of God.
“WHERE THE WORD IS, THE FIRE WILL NOT GO DOWN”.
