TOPIC – Lessons From The Life Of Naaman (11) (Mountain Of Fire and Miracle Ministries, MFM Devotional 30 August 2026)
BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: Isaiah 3, Isaiah 4, Matthew 13, Matthew 14.
FIRE SCRIPTURE: 2 Kings 5:20-23 (KJV)
20 But Gehazi, the servant of Elisha the man of God, said, Behold, my master hath spared Naaman this Syrian, in not receiving at his hands that which he brought: but, as the Lord liveth, I will run after him, and take somewhat of him.
21 So Gehazi followed after Naaman. And when Naaman saw him running after him, he lighted down from the chariot to meet him, and said, Is all well?
22 And he said, All is well. My master hath sent me, saying, Behold, even now there be come to me from mount Ephraim two young men of the sons of the prophets: give them, I pray thee, a talent of silver, and two changes of garments.
23 And Naaman said, Be content, take two talents. And he urged him, and bound two talents of silver in two bags, with two changes of garments, and laid them upon two of his servants; and they bare them before him.
MEMORY VERSE: These are wells without water, clouds that are carried with a tempest; to whom the mist of darkness is reserved for ever. – 2 Peter 2:17 (KJV)
MOTIVATIONAL QUOTES: The grace you refuse to honour can never speak for you. Learn the culture of honour, it is a currency!
PRAISE AND WORSHIP: Take praise and worship songs as led by the Holy Spirit.
PROPHETIC WORD FOR TODAY: God’s mercy shall always speak for us, in the Name of Jesus.
MFM Devotional For Today 2026 MESSAGE:
Another lesson to learn from Naaman is his character of honour. He honoured God in the life of Elisha, and he never took God’s anointed for granted.
After Elisha rejected his gifts, Gehazi felt entitled and ran after Naaman to collect the rejected gifts in the name of his master thus, demeaning the revered man of God in the face of a stranger. When Gehazi told Naaman that his master asked him to collect the gift, if it were to be men of this untoward generation, they would have said derisively, “What was he thinking before that he didn’t collect it?” Some would even have gone to social media to accuse the man of being a gift-monger or money-monger. They are so quick to judge men of God. But what was Naaman’s response? First, in verse 21, “And when Naaman saw him running after him, he lighted down from the chariot to meet him” Second, in verse 23, “And Naaman said, Be content, take two talents. And he urged him, and bound two talents of silver in two bags, with two changes of garments, and laid them upon two of his servants; and they bare them before him.” Note from these two scriptures that Naaman respected Gehazi the way he would have respected Elisha. He saw Gehazi as a representative of Elisha and thus bestowed the same honour on him.

There is an old-time culture that has eroded, especially among modern and younger generations of Christians. It is the culture of honour. We no longer honour people. We no longer honour God’s anointed men and women again. Now young Christians can look straight in the face of elders that are old enough to parent them and speak trash. Children talk anyhow to adults and some of these children are coming from supposedly Christian homes. Christians now resort to the social media to vent all their anger against the body of Christ. No restraint, no honour. Even the commandment of God that asks us to honour our father and mother has been thrown away through the window. Everyone seems to have thrown caution to the wind. The Bible says in Ephesians 4:20 that “But ye have not so learned Christ;”. This is apparently not the gospel handed to us. We need to get back to the culture of honour.
