Step Out With Femi Monehin

Fresh Fire Daily Devotional Friday 19th August 2016

“Elijah said to her… make a little bread for me first then use what’s left to prepare a meal for yourself and your son… So she did as Elijah said, and… there was always enough flour and olive oil left in the containers, just as the Lord had promised…” 
- 1 Kings 17:13,15-16.

It is one thing to believe in the supernatural, it is another thing to be open to the supernatural. It is one thing to have the supernatural at arm’s length, it is another thing to embrace the supernatural. Do you desire to be open to the supernatural but you are wondering how to go about it? To be open to the supernatural, you must know two things.

#1. Miracles happen outside of your comfort zone. The first thing you have to understand is that the miraculous happens outside of your comfort zone. Miracles do not happen in your comfort zone. Imagine your comfort zone is zone A. that is where you do life and have achieved a comfortable rhythm and routine. Guess what? Miracles do not happen there. Miracles happen in zone Z, outside of your comfort zone.

So for you to get the miracles that you want, you have to come out of your comfort zone. It could be in something as simple as rhythm. Take fasting for instance; do you know that it is possible to fast in your comfort zone? You are fasting and nothing is even moving, you are not feeling anything. In fact, your physical body is not even feeling the fast. Some people say that it is when they fast their belly comes out. The truth is you have not really started fasting. It is when you push out of your comfort zone that miracles happen. By God’s grace, I fast a lot and it is easy if you fast a lot to fast in your comfort zone. But I always ensure that I push myself out of my comfort zone. Why? Simple, because I know that is where the miracles happen.

With praying it is the same thing. God wants you to pray. You have to pray out of your comfort zone; that is where the miracles happen. There are seasons in church where we have vigils every single day and some people have called it crazy. News flash, your bed is your comfort zone and miracles do not happen there. Miracles happen outside your comfort zone. You cannot keep doing the same thing over and over and expect a different result. It does not make sense. Miracles happen outside of your comfort zone.

Prayer [song]: Spirit lead me where my trust is without borders. Let me walk upon the water wherever You would call me. Take me deeper than my feet could ever wander. And my faith will be made stronger in the Presence of my Savior. Amen!

Dominion Mandate Daily Devotional Thursday,March 3

THEME: You Can Create Whatever You Desire John 16:21-27 The instrument with which you exercise dominion over creation is your mouth.You can create whatsoever you desire by speaking that thing into existence.Whatever you say begins to exist in the spiritual form.Jesus said in John 6:63,"The words that I speak unto you,they are spirit,and they are life". In like manner,you create whatever you say and the things begin to exist in the spiritual form.What you create through words also have life and they continue to live until they find physical expression.  This is exactly what happens when you pray.The things you declare in prayer come alive and begin to exist in their spiritual form.They remain in that spiritual form until they are converted to their tangible equivalent through work. Jesus said,"until now you have asked nothing in My name.Ask,and you will receive,that your joy may be full" (John 16:24). Don't make the mistake of relaxing after you have pray...

A Partaker Of Other People's Sins? - Pastor E.A Adeboye

Open Heavens Daily Devotional Friday July 15th 2016 Memory Verse: Lay hands suddenly on no man, neither be partaker of other men’s sins: keep thyself pure. - 1 Timothy 5:22 Bible Reading: 2 Chronicles 18:28-34 28. So the king of Israel and Jehoshaphat the king of Judah went up to Ramoth-gilead.  29. And the king of Israel said unto Jehoshaphat, I will disguise myself, and will go to the battle; but put thou on thy robes. So the king of Israel disguised himself; and they went to the battle.  30. Now the king of Syria had commanded the captains of the chariots that were with him, saying, Fight ye not with small or great, save only with the king of Israel.  31. And it came to pass, when the captains of the chariots saw Jehoshaphat, that they said, It is the king of Israel. Therefore they compassed about him to fight: but Jehoshaphat cried out, and the Lord helped him; and God moved them to depart from him.  32.For it came to pass, that, whe...

We Fail To Achieve Greatness Because We Fear Success By John Hagee

John Hagee Daily Devotional Thursday 11th August 2016  I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me.  - One reason we do not reach excellence is because of our fear of failure.  Failure is a better teacher than success.  Every great success story has its element of failure.  You have not failed until you quit; only then have you failed.  After Thomas Edison finished his 700th experiment trying to develop the electric light his assistant said, “We have failed.”  Edison replied, “No.   We have found 700 ways that will not work.  Do not call these 700 experiments mistakes; call them our education.  Now let’s keep going until we find the answer.”  Are you afraid of failure?  Then you’ll never succeed.  You’ll never stub your toe standing still.  Remember the turtle, he never gets anywhere until he sticks his neck out.  You can’t succeed if you’re not willing to risk failure. Have you failed? Get up. ...
