Our Daily Manna ODM Today 23rd August 2026
TOPIC: MY NAME IS NOT TOBY! I REFUSE EVERY SLAVE NAME!
Continued from yesterday! Remember that our devotional story came from the popular story called, “ROOTS” which was a storyline of the SLAVERY SEASON IN AFRICA! Kizzy Kinte was the daughter of Kunta Kinte! In Alex Haley’s classic award-winning book, “ROOTS,” she wanted FREEDOM FROM SLAVERY and live freely as her ancestors had done in Africa. But she couldn’t. She was born of a slave woman and in those terrible days of bondage, she was destined to live as a slave! But catch this: Mr. KUNTA, her father, refused to be called, “TOBY” his slave name! He insisted on his African name, rather than accepting the slave name, “Toby.” He knew that identity was paramount! He knew that names carry history, belonging, and power, making the refusal to be renamed an act of supreme resistance! Oh! The Holy Ghost is saying to a user of today’s devotional: DO NOT ANSWER THE NAMES OF THE DEVIL! Refuse to answer any name your FATHER GOD has not called you! Refuse to answer to demotion! It is not your name! Refuse to accept the names: RISE and FALL, INCURABLE SICKNESS, SECRET SINS, SHAME, DISGRACE, BAD LUCK, LOSSES, DEPRESSION, WORRY, POVERTY, CONFUSION, STAGNATION, etc. Refuse any SLAVE NAME because wherever the SPIRIT of the LORD IS, there is liberty (vs. 17 of today’s scripture)! Work out your salvation with fear and trembling! Refuse satanic plans to push you into bondage again! Refuse every SLAVE NAME! (Online 7-day prayers starts tonight).
