Fire Scripture

Memory verse
Heb. 11:6 – “But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him.”
MFM Mountain Top Life Devotional 19th April 2021 Outline
Without faith, there is no meaningful thing you can get from God. If you come to God, you must believe that He is able to do what you want from Him. Our faith in Him gladdens His heart and He can do more than we expect. In Eph. 3:20, the Bible says, “Now unto Him that is able to do exceeding abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that worketh in us.”
Caleb’s stand and report can be likened to the above scriptures. Just like Abraham in Gen. 15:6 who believed in the Lord and it was counted unto him for righteousness. In the Old Testament, faith implied two things: trust in or reliance on God and loyalty or faithfulness to Him.
Caleb saw the Promised Land they went to spy like the other ten spies, but he also remembered that God started them out with a great deliverance in Egypt and at the Red Sea, when all hope seemed to be lost. He saw the giants as meat for the Israelites and not the other way round. As a result of this, he was preserved.
Without faith in God, you will become a prey to the enemy. Without faith in God’s promises, you will be a victim all the days of your life and even lose what you have already received. Are you ready to be courageous like Caleb? Then the Promised Land is your starting point.
God is willing to preserve you until that promise you believe in comes to pass. The fear and negative report of the ten spies robbed them entry into the Promised Land while the victorious faith of Caleb gave Him access to the Promised Land.
Beloved, get rid of fear and the grasshopper mentality today. They are counter-productive. They will rob you of the needed strength and courage to forge ahead and succeed. They will fill you with discouragement and birth failure. Rather, embrace the victorious faith of Caleb.
Since God has spoken and given you His promise, believe that you can do it. You can possess that possession.
Believe also that, though giants may be on your way to hinder you, God is with you and will surely give you victory.
