TOPIC: Benefits Of Fasting (II) (Mountain Of Fire and Miracle Ministries, MFM Devotional 5 June 2023)

BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: Job 30, Job 31, Job 32, Acts 12, Acts 13

FIRE SCRIPTURE: Esther 4:15-17, 5:1-5 (KJV)

Esther 4:15-17:15 Then Esther bade them return Mordecai this answer,

16 Go, gather together all the Jews that are present in Shushan, and fast ye for me, and neither eat nor drink three days, night or day: I also and my maidens will fast likewise; and so will I go in unto the king, which is not according to the law: and if I perish, I perish.

17 So Mordecai went his way, and did according to all that Esther had commanded him.

Esther 5:1-5:5 Now it came to pass on the third day, that Esther put on her royal apparel, and stood in the inner court of the king’s house, over against the king’s house: and the king sat upon his royal throne in the royal house, over against the gate of the house.

2 And it was so, when the king saw Esther the queen standing in the court, that she obtained favour in his sight: and the king held out to Esther the golden sceptre that was in his hand. So Esther drew near, and touched the top of the sceptre.

3 Then said the king unto her, What wilt thou, queen Esther? and what is thy request? it shall be even given thee to the half of the kingdom.

4 And Esther answered, If it seem good unto the king, let the king and Haman come this day unto the banquet that I have prepared for him.

5 Then the king said, Cause Haman to make haste, that he may do as Esther hath said. So the king and Haman came to the banquet that Esther had prepared.

MEMORY VERSE: “And he said unto them, This kind can come forth by nothing, but by prayer and fasting.” – Mark 9:29

MOTIVATIONAL QUOTES:Fasting is the first principle of medicine; fast and see the strength of the spirit reveal itself.

PRAISE AND WORSHIP:Take praise and worship songs as led by the Holy Spirit

PROPHETIC WORD FOR TODAY:THE POWER THAT RECEIVES UNMERITED FAVOUR SHALL REST UPON YOU, IN THE NAME OF JESUS.

MFM Devotional For Today 2023 MESSAGE:

Another benefit of fasting is that it makes one to receive divine favour in the sight of all. Fasting paves way for one to be favoured. In today’s fire scripture, the law of the land stipulated that Esther must wait for the king to call her or send for her, but she went into three days’ dry fast and put her faith into operation. She came out to see the king without minding the consequences and she received the “come along, by holding out the scepter to her.” Esther 5:2 says, “And it was so, when the King saw Esther the queen standing in the court, that she obtained favour in his sight: and the king held out to Esther the golden scepter that was in his hands. So, Esther drew near, and touched the top of the scepter.”

Dearly beloved, what would have resulted in instant death turned out to be the point of life and divine favour. Are you in any situation that is not working out the way you want? Are you the best in your office, but the most persecuted? Are you the only one that is getting result in your place of work and yet you are the most insulted person there? Why not go back to God in fasting and prayer and pray out the spirit of hatred and rejection from your life. God is a God of favour. If you ask Him to favour you, you will not miss out again on favour. Do you know that favour is to be treated with partiality and special treatment? Every child of God deserves to be treated specially as if they are the only one on ground.

Dear reader of this devotional, fasting can put you in the room of favour where everything will begin to work for your good anywhere you find yourself.

God is expecting you to ask for special favour from Him and He will decorate your life with favour.
