MFM Daily Devotional 12 May 2025 Message
There are several destructive entities in the Scripture fully engaged by the devil to wage war against mankind through the ages. According to our Lord, Jesus Christ, the devil has a three-fold agenda—to steal, to kill, and to destroy (John 10:10). The devil is passionately committed to his dark ministry. That is the reason why he is always out to steal, to kill, and to destroy all the good things the Lord God has bestowed upon families, upon individuals, and all human endeavours through his evil spirits. One of the wicked spirits enlisted by the devil to inflict an oppressive agenda upon humanity is the spirit of Herod.

The destructive agenda of the spirit of Herod has been vividly portrayed to us by today’s Fire Scripture. When Jesus was born, His Star shone magnificently across the heavens. The wise men from the East understood that a Star of Glory had arrived on planet Earth. In tracing the Star to Jerusalem, they had a stopover at Herod’s palace to inquire about the newly born Star. This discovery greatly unsettled King Herod, who instructed the wise men to go in search of Him who had been born King of the whole universe. He asked them to bring back the address of the Star so he could also go and pay homage. Through instruction from on high, the wise men did not return to him. Consequently, Herod killed all the male children from two years old.
What is the spirit of Herod? It is the spirit that kills good things at infancy. It is the spirit that fights against the divine agenda and rises against the fulfilment of prophecy. It is the spirit of turbulent anger that destroys a massive number of people or a structure because of one glorious Star. It is a devious spirit of envy and jealousy. It hates healthy competition and is highly overprotective. The most effective way to combat this destructive spirit is to call for divine intervention, and the Lord, who is the Man of War, will arise for you, and the spirit of Herod fighting you will scatter in the name of Jesus.
