MFM Daily Devotional Message Saturday 26th July 2025.

God judges and reward our motives. Therefore, we should ensure that our reason for seeking Him, worshipping Him and serving Him are right. In John 6, the Bible affirms that a great multitude followed Jesus, because they saw his miracles which he did on them that were diseased. Shortly after this, Jesus fed the five thousand with five loaves of bread and two pieces of fish, and those who saw the miracle sought him to make him king who would bring them out of the Roman yoke and provide them free food always. Even when Jesus escaped to Capernaum, the same people boarded a ship to seek him there. When they eventually found Jesus, He told them a plain truth: "Verily verily, I say unto you, ye seek me not because ye saw the miracles, but because ye did eat of the loaves, and were filled. Labour not for the meat that perisheth, but for that meat which endureth unto everlasting life, which the son of man shall give unto you, for him have the father sealed' (John 6:26-27).

There are people who seek God for what He can give them; they do not seek to have a genuine and obedient relationship with Him. There are many who do not really want God, but they want his healing, deliverance and material wealth. If you belong to that category, I want you to realize that God cannot be deceived or mocked. God desires those who would cultivate and cherish genuine fellowship and intimacy with him, who seek him simply because they love him and want to love him more. Seeking Him for the sake of your salvation, thriving relationship and service is of great eternal value. If your reason for seeking Jesus is wrong, you have an opportunity to repent today. Do not ignore this caution, it may determine where you spend your eternity.

Beloved, do not allow the enemy to short-change you. Seek God; love, worship and serve Him for who He is!.
