TOPIC: Be Steadfast (IV) (Mountain Of Fire and Miracle Ministries, MFM Devotional 25 August 2021)

BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: Ezekiel 9-12

FIRE SCRIPTURE: 1 Kings 13:1-10

1 And, behold, there came a man of God out of Judah by the word of the LORD unto Bethel: and Jeroboam stood by the altar to burn incense.

2 And he cried against the altar in the word of the LORD, and said, O altar, altar, thus saith the LORD; Behold, a child shall be born unto the house of David, Josiah by name; and upon thee shall he offer the priests of the high places that burn incense upon thee, and men’s bones shall be burnt upon thee.

3 And he gave a sign the same day, saying, This is the sign which the LORD hath spoken; Behold, the altar shall be rent, and the ashes that are upon it shall be poured out.

4 And it came to pass, when king Jeroboam heard the saying of the man of God, which had cried against the altar in Bethel, that he put forth his hand from the altar, saying, Lay hold on him. And his hand, which he put forth against him, dried up, so that he could not pull it in again to him.

5 The altar also was rent, and the ashes poured out from the altar, according to the sign which the man of God had given by the word of the LORD.

6 And the king answered and said unto the man of God, Intreat now the face of the LORD thy God, and pray for me, that my hand may be restored me again. And the man of God besought the LORD, and the king’s hand was restored him again, and became as it was before.

7 And the king said unto the man of God, Come home with me, and refresh thyself, and I will give thee a reward.

8 And the man of God said unto the king, If thou wilt give me half thine house, I will not go in with thee, neither will I eat bread nor drink water in this place:

9 For so was it charged me by the word of the LORD, saying, Eat no bread, nor drink water, nor turn again by the same way that thou camest.

10 So he went another way, and returned not by the way that he came to Bethel.

MEMORY VERSE: “And the man of God said unto the king, If thou wilt give me half thine house, I will not go in with thee, neither will I eat bread nor drink water in this place:” – 1 Kings 13:8

PROPHETIC WORD FOR TODAY:
ANY POWER THAT WANTS THE ENEMY TO WRITE THE LAST CHAPTER OF YOUR LIFE IS HEREBY BURIED ALIVE, BY FIRE, IN THE NAME OF JESUS.

The MESSAGE:

There are notable examples of stedfastness in the Bible. We have several lessons to learn from each of these Bible characters who demonstrated high level of steadfastness and got rewarded for it. God found a usable vessel in a young prophet whom He empowered and sent to Jeroboam with a message from heaven. King Jeroboam was burning incense in the altar of God in Bethel against heaven’s wish and command. The man of God delivered God’s message accurately and bravely: “And he cried against the altar in the word of the LORD, and said, O altar, altar, thus saith the LORD; Behold, a child shall be born unto the house of David, Josiah by name; and upon thee shall he offer the priests of the high places that burn incense upon thee, and men’s bones shall be burnt upon thee. And he gave a sign the same day, saying, This is the sign which the LORD hath spoken; Behold, the altar shall be rent, and the ashes that are upon it shall be poured out” (1 Kings 13:2-3). When the king heard the judgement of God, he stretched forth his hand from the altar against the man of God and commanded that he be arrested.

What happened mext? The hand that the king stretched against the anointed of the Lord dried up and the King could not pull it back again. He had to plead with the man of God who showed him mercy and prayed to God to restore his hand. In appreciation of the kindness of the man of God, King Jeroboam said, “Come home with me, and refresh thyself, and I will give thee a reward.”

The Bible says that the man of God from Judah was a steadfast believer. He followed the instruction that God gave to him: do not eat bread; do not drink water; do not turn again by the same way you came (1 Kings 13:8-10). To be steadfast is to be unquestioningly, promptly and completely obedient.
