MFM Devotional For Today 2024 MESSAGE:

Today, let us read verse 16 of the Fire Scripture from another version of the Bible, the New Living Translation Bible: “For the world offers only a craving for physical pleasure, a craving for everything we see, and pride in our achievements and possessions. These are not from the Father, but are from this world” (NLT). This is a simple but straightforward explanation of the pride of life – those things that are in the world that make people to desire earthly things more than the heavenly ones. These include fame, popularity, power, position, possessions, beauty and many more.

As a Christian, do you crave for everything you see? How much of physical pleasure do you entertain as a Christian? The Bible says that he who lives in pleasure while alive is already a dead fellow. The pride of life talks about when you are consumed by the number of your possessions, your achievements and those things that make you demonstrate a high level of superiority above others. What do you have that does not come from God? God gave you power to get wealth. Your exalted position is all by the power of God. He can bring low and humble any proud person as he did to Nebuccadnezar, the king, who was converted to an animal for a period of time.

Is it your beauty? Remember God made man in His own image, male and female. Even your accomplishments are all as a result of what He permits to be. God gives and He takes! The Bible says that the life of a man does not consist in what he has. We brought nothing to this world and we surely will go with nothing. What will it profit a man to lose his soul and forfeit eternity? It is all as a result of when a person is engulfed in all of these while God and His Kingdom take the rear position. Today’s memory verse is a pointer to the fact that the knowledge of God and His kingdom should be our priority and not pushed to the rear position.

The rich fool in the Bible was guilty of the lust of the eyes, the lust of the flesh and the pride of life. You can still retrace your steps and make amends.
