FIRE SCRIPTURE: Philippians 3:4-10 (KJV)
4 Though I might also have confidence in the flesh. If any other man thinketh that he hath whereof he might trust in the flesh, I more:
5 Circumcised the eighth day, of the stock of Israel, of the tribe of Benjamin, an Hebrew of the Hebrews; as touching the law, a Pharisee;
6 Concerning zeal, persecuting the church; touching the righteousness which is in the law, blameless.
7 But what things were gain to me, those I counted loss for Christ.
8 Yea doubtless, and I count all things but loss for the excellency of the knowledge of Christ Jesus my Lord: for whom I have suffered the loss of all things, and do count them but dung, that I may win Christ,
9 And be found in him, not having mine own righteousness, which is of the law, but that which is through the faith of Christ, the righteousness which is of God by faith:
10 That I may know him, and the power of his resurrection, and the fellowship of his sufferings, being made conformable unto his death;

MFM Devotional For Today 2026 MESSAGE:
The encounter Peter and his colleagues experienced with Jesus had a great impact on them. It cost them a price just as it was stated yesterday. The Scripture says, “They forsook all and followed Him.” What a dramatic turn of events! They forsook all… everything they wanted so badly. Everything they laboured for zealously and pursued passionately. They forsook all… everything they toiled for all night. Everything that snatched away sleep from their eyes. Everything they thought could meet their needs and change their financial status. By an encounter with Jesus, what they considered so dear and indispensable, faded into insignificance. An encounter with Jesus changed their worldview and realigned their purpose with divine agenda. Many are out of alignment with divine purpose because they are not willing to forsake everything for the sake of Jesus.

He is not ready for an encounter with Jesus, who is not willing to lose all that he may gain Him. There are many people who are praying for divine encounter but are not willing to forsake all. The story is narrated in Mark 10:17-25, about the rich young ruler, who wanted to gain eternity with Jesus but was not ready to pay the price. He desperately desired an encounter with Jesus but he was not willing to forsake all that he possessed that he might gain the fullness of Jesus. He was a classic example of religious encounter seekers. There are many people like that in the house of God today. Do you really desire an encounter with Jesus? Are you willing to forsake all? The truth is that many of the things that the devil is using to hinder you from laying your all on the altar for God, are still the same things he is using you to block the manifestation of your greatness for God.
If you truly desire to be a profitable servant and a force to be reckoned with in the Kingdom of God, you need nothing else but an encounter with Jesus.
