3 And as he sat upon the mount of Olives, the disciples came unto him privately, saying, Tell us, when shall these things be? and what shall be the sign of thy coming, and of the end of the world?

4 And Jesus answered and said unto them, Take heed that no man deceive you.

5 For many shall come in my name, saying, I am Christ; and shall deceive many.

6 And ye shall hear of wars and rumours of wars: see that ye be not troubled: for all these things must come to pass, but the end is not yet.

7 For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall be famines, and pestilences, and earthquakes, in divers places.

8 All these are the beginning of sorrows.

9 Then shall they deliver you up to be afflicted, and shall kill you: and ye shall be hated of all nations for my name’s sake.

MFM Devotional For Today 2022 MESSAGE:

Yesterday, we started looking at the “The signs of the Times”, and so far it is clear that majority of the signs as explained by Jesus Christ are already with us. But the amazing thing is that many Christians are still living as though nothing is at stake. I hope you are not one of those who disregard divine warnings.

In our Bible reading for today’s devotional we have seen more of the signs of the times: “For many shall come in my name, saying, I am Christ; and shall deceive many. (Matthew 24:5). Indeed the world has witnessed the emergence of many false christs. Some people have boldly declared themselves to be Jesus. Many of us can still remember such strange elements in this country. These fake men have profound charismatic personality and deceptive nature by which they are able to enslave and imprison their followers mentally and spiritually.

Unfortunately, some believers, because of one challenge or the other, have fallen victim to the whims and caprices of these counterfeit Christ. Many men who are also seeking for fame, wealth and positions have decided to mortgage their eternity by lining up behind these impostors. Beloved, you need to have a deep conviction about the great wonders the Lord can do for His children. Therefore, guard yourself against the trickery and antics of such men.

Other signs of the times are war and rumour. The news media are filled with devastating reportage on wars in many nations of the world today. Coming home to Africa, we are aware of raging wars in some countries, both on medium and large scale. The devil is instigating many of these senseless wars in order to keep on polluting our land. The Bible says, so ye shall not pollute the land wherein ye are: for blood it defileth the land…

(Numbers 35:33). Also, many unprepared souls have been sent to eternal perdition. All these signs are supposed to be our constant reminder to always be prepared for the coming of our Master — Jesus Christ. Are you born again? Are you preparing for eternity?

PRAYER POINTS:

MORNING

PRAYER OF PRAISE AND THANKSGIVING (TO BE SAID DAILY)

Father in the name of Jesus, I thank You for:

Drawing me to prayer and power,

The salvation of my soul,

Baptizing me with the Holy Spirit,

Producing spiritual gifts upon my life,

The fruits of the spirit working in me,

The wonderful gift of praise,

All the ways You have intervened in my affairs,

Your divine plan for my life,

You will never leave me nor forsake me,

Bringing me to a place of maturity and deeper life,

Lifting me up when I fall,

Keeping me in perfect peace,

Making all things work together for good for me,

Protecting me from the snares of the fowler and from the noisome pestilence,

The wonder-working power in Your Word and in the Blood of the Lamb,

Giving Your angels charge over me,

Fighting for me against my adversaries,

Making me more than a conqueror,

Supplying all my needs according to Your riches in glory,

Your healing power upon my body, soul and spirit,

Flooding my heart with the light of heaven,

Always causing me to triumph in Christ Jesus,

Turning my curses into blessings,

Enabling me to dwell in safety,

All the blessings of life,

Your greatness, power, glory, majesty, splendor and righteousness,

Silencing the foe and the avenger,

You are at my right hand and I shall not be moved,

You are trustworthy and will help Your own,

Not allowing my enemies to rejoice over me,

Your wonderful love,

You are great and greatly to be praised,

Delivering my soul from death and my feet from stumbling,

You are my fortress and refuge in time of trouble,

Your faithfulness and marvellous deeds,

Your act of power and surpassing greatness,

Dispersing spiritual blindness from my spirit,

Lifting me out of the depths,

Preserving me and keeping my feet from slipping,

Your name is a strong tower, the righteous runs into it and he is safe.
