TOPIC — Heaven: The Christian’s Destination (Mountain Of Fire and Miracle Ministries, MFM Devotional 10 November 2021)

BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: Luke 24; John 20-21

FIRE SCRIPTURE: Matthew 25:1-21; John 3:3-18 (KJV)

Matthew 25:1-21:
1 Then shall the kingdom of heaven be likened unto ten virgins, which took their lamps, and went forth to meet the bridegroom.

2 And five of them were wise, and five were foolish.

3 They that were foolish took their lamps, and took no oil with them:

4 But the wise took oil in their vessels with their lamps.

5 While the bridegroom tarried, they all slumbered and slept.

6 And at midnight there was a cry made, Behold, the bridegroom cometh; go ye out to meet him.

7 Then all those virgins arose, and trimmed their lamps.

8 And the foolish said unto the wise, Give us of your oil; for our lamps are gone out.

9 But the wise answered, saying, Not so; lest there be not enough for us and you: but go ye rather to them that sell, and buy for yourselves.

10 And while they went to buy, the bridegroom came; and they that were ready went in with him to the marriage: and the door was shut.

11 Afterward came also the other virgins, saying, Lord, Lord, open to us.

12 But he answered and said, Verily I say unto you, I know you not.

13 Watch therefore, for ye know neither the day nor the hour wherein the Son of man cometh.

14 For the kingdom of heaven is as a man travelling into a far country, who called his own servants, and delivered unto them his goods.

15 And unto one he gave five talents, to another two, and to another one; to every man according to his several ability; and straightway took his journey.

16 Then he that had received the five talents went and traded with the same, and made them other five talents.

17 And likewise he that had received two, he also gained other two.

18 But he that had received one went and digged in the earth, and hid his lord’s money.

19 After a long time the lord of those servants cometh, and reckoneth with them.

20 And so he that had received five talents came and brought other five talents, saying, Lord, thou deliveredst unto me five talents: behold, I have gained beside them five talents more.

21 His lord said unto him, Well done, thou good and faithful servant: thou hast been faithful over a few things, I will make thee ruler over many things: enter thou into the joy of thy lord.

John 3:3-18:
3 Jesus answered and said unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God.

4 Nicodemus saith unto him, How can a man be born when he is old? can he enter the second time into his mother’s womb, and be born?

5 Jesus answered, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born of water and of the Spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God.

6 That which is born of the flesh is flesh; and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit.

7 Marvel not that I said unto thee, Ye must be born again.

8 The wind bloweth where it listeth, and thou hearest the sound thereof, but canst not tell whence it cometh, and whither it goeth: so is every one that is born of the Spirit.

9 Nicodemus answered and said unto him, How can these things be?

10 Jesus answered and said unto him, Art thou a master of Israel, and knowest not these things?

11 Verily, verily, I say unto thee, We speak that we do know, and testify that we have seen; and ye receive not our witness.

12 If I have told you earthly things, and ye believe not, how shall ye believe, if I tell you of heavenly things?

13 And no man hath ascended up to heaven, but he that came down from heaven, even the Son of man which is in heaven.

14 And as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, even so must the Son of man be lifted up:

15 That whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have eternal life.

16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.

17 For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved.

18 He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God.

MEMORY VERSE: “And these shall go away into everlasting punishment: but the righteous into life eternal.” – Matthew 25:46

MOTIVATIONAL QUOTE:

PROPHETIC WORD FOR TODAY:
YOU SHALL NOT LOSE YOUR PLACE IN THE KINGDOM OF GOD, IN THE NAME OF JESUS.

MFM Devotional 10 November 2021 MESSAGE:

Where exactly are you going when you die? Is it heaven or hell? It is a decision you have to make. Think about it. The world is a market place where we buy and sell and after that, we go home, which is either heaven or hell. Are you sure you will end your journey in heaven? It will be so sad that after your life on earth, you die and go to hell which is for eternity (Matthew 7:21-23). Perhaps you need to ask yourself these questions. Does my life on earth really prepare me for heaven? Am I doing the will of God? Is God pleased with my character on earth?

What are those things that can disqualify you from going to heaven? They are well spelt out in Galatians 5:19-21. And the things that can qualify you for the Kingdom of God are also found in the same Galatians 5:22-26. There we see the fruit of the Spirit. In addition, you must be born again, live a holy life, be constant in prayer, read the word of God and meditate on it everyday. Giving is also very important.

Jesus has gone to prepare a place for us in heaven and we will get there if we consciously follow His words. You should totally surrender your life to Him and ensure that you steadily grow in His grace as you journey through life to eternity. Heaven is such an awesome place. It is the place where God lives. It is where Jesus is expecting us to live with Him in eternity.

You must get rid of the works of the flesh because they will not allow us to enter into heaven. The word of God must be the controlling force directing the affairs of your life. As you journey to heaven, you need personal discipline to make the Holy Spirit your guardian so that you will not miss the way. Jesus said that anyone that endures to the end shall be saved. You cannot afford to relax as you journey to eternity. Receive the grace for a successful journey, in Jesus’ name.
