Numbers 11:1-15
[1] Now when the people complained, it displeased the Lord; for the Lord heard it, and His anger was aroused. So the fire of the Lord burned among them, and consumed some in the outskirts of the camp. 

[2] Then the people cried out to Moses, and when Moses prayed to the Lord, the fire was quenched. 

[3] So he called the name of the place Taberah, because the fire of the Lord had burned among them. 

[4] Now the mixed multitude who were among them yielded to intense craving; so the children of Israel also wept again and said: “Who will give us meat to eat? 

[5] We remember the fish which we ate freely in Egypt, the cucumbers, the melons, the leeks, the onions, and the garlic; 

[6] but now our whole being is dried up; there is nothing at all except this manna before our eyes!” 

[7] Now the manna was like coriander seed, and its color like the color of bdellium. 

[8] The people went about and gathered it, ground it on millstones or beat it in the mortar, cooked it in pans, and made cakes of it; and its taste was like the taste of pastry prepared with oil. 

[9] And when the dew fell on the camp in the night, the manna fell on it. 

[10] Then Moses heard the people weeping throughout their families, everyone at the door of his tent; and the anger of the Lord was greatly aroused; Moses also was displeased. 

[11] So Moses said to the Lord, “Why have You afflicted Your servant? And why have I not found favor in Your sight, that You have laid the burden of all these people on me? 

[12] Did I conceive all these people? Did I beget them, that You should say to me, ‘Carry them in your bosom, as a guardian carries a nursing child,’ to the land which You swore to their fathers? 

[13] Where am I to get meat to give to all these people? For they weep all over me, saying, ‘Give us meat, that we may eat.’ 

[14] I am not able to bear all these people alone, because the burden is too heavy for me. 

[15] If You treat me like this, please kill me here and now—if I have found favor in Your sight—and do not let me see my wretchedness!”

MFM Daily Devotional Message Monday, 18th May, 2026.
In these last days, there is need for us as (believers) to understand the identity and activities of the spiritual entities called the "mixed multitudes". The mixed multitude instigated the Israelites against their God as we pointed out in the first part of this devotional yesterday. They also corrupted the the mind of the Israelites as they affected them by the insidious spirit of lust. The spirit of lust is the power of sinful longing for things which God prohibits. It is the force that makes people desire what God has condemned. Lust can degenerate to the level of bewitchment that blinds one to God's loving care and goodness, which eventually leads to falling away from God. All these happened to the Israelites according to our Fire Scripture of today.

The mixed multitudes badly influenced the Israelites to the point of looking back to Egypt and longing for their Egyptian delicacies of fish, cucumber, melons, leeks, onions and garlic. This very low attitude made them despise the Heavenly delicacy, Manna, the food of angels with which God was feeding them. Are you not surprised? What is in fish or cucumber or even onions and garlic that would make a whole nation desire returning to the land of bondage? They even exaggerated by saying that, "... our soul is dried away..." (v6). They wept so much like over-pampered children and the anger of God was kindled against them, and the meek Moses was displeased and also became angry. They frustrated the leader God placed over them. They were drawn away from God, forgetting His goodness, love and providence. They inevitably came under the Judgement of the loving God, and many of them were eventually destroyed.

The truth is that in the church today, there are lots of mixed multitudes who are not fully with God, neither are they persuaded of His goodness and love. They pretend to belong to God's children, but they are not. In fact, they are causing a lot of innocent ones to stumble. Beware.
