BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: Job 39, Job 40, Job 41, Acts 18, Acts 19.
FIRE SCRIPTURE: Numbers 16:41-50 (KJV)
41 But on the morrow all the congregation of the children of Israel murmured against Moses and against Aaron, saying, Ye have killed the people of the Lord.
42 And it came to pass, when the congregation was gathered against Moses and against Aaron, that they looked toward the tabernacle of the congregation: and, behold, the cloud covered it, and the glory of the Lord appeared.
43 And Moses and Aaron came before the tabernacle of the congregation.
44 And the Lord spake unto Moses, saying,
45 Get you up from among this congregation, that I may consume them as in a moment. And they fell upon their faces.
46 And Moses said unto Aaron, Take a censer, and put fire therein from off the altar, and put on incense, and go quickly unto the congregation, and make an atonement for them: for there is wrath gone out from the Lord; the plague is begun.
47 And Aaron took as Moses commanded, and ran into the midst of the congregation; and, behold, the plague was begun among the people: and he put on incense, and made an atonement for the people.
48 And he stood between the dead and the living; and the plague was stayed.
49 Now they that died in the plague were fourteen thousand and seven hundred, beside them that died about the matter of Korah.
50 And Aaron returned unto Moses unto the door of the tabernacle of the congregation: and the plague was stayed.

MFM Devotional For Today 2026 MESSAGE:
To murmur means to grumble, to complain, to whine, in a way that expresses dissatisfaction or resentment. Many times, people murmur when they are displeased about something but are not bold enough to articulate their concerns constructively.
In our Fire Scripture, we see a classic example of murmuring. The children of Israel murmured against Moses and Aaron after the death of the rebellious Korah, Dathan and Abiram. They accused the leaders of killing the Lord’s people. How did the Lord respond? He sent a plague that consumed fourteen thousand and seven hundred of them. What does this teach us? The Lord hates murmuring and grumbling; it seriously displeases Him.

The children of Israel are not alone in this sin of murmuring. Many Christians today are equally guilty of this sin. In life, everyone will experience one challenge or the other at some point. Our default response as Christians should not be to murmur; murmuring is for those who do not know the Lord. The Bible encourages us to cast our burdens on the Lord (Psalm 55:22), to trust in the Lord and not in man (Proverbs 3:5; Jeremiah 17:5) and to come boldly to the throne of grace (Hebrews 4:16).
Examine yourself carefully. Do you secretly or openly complain about your boss? When you board a bus, do you join others to complain about your leaders? After listening to your pastor’s sermon, do you go home and highlight all the errors to your spouse or anybody else? Are you a murmurer? If there are issues you are dissatisfied with as a child of God, the first thing to do is pray; afterwards, walk up to the person/people involved and respectfully articulate your concerns.
From our text, we see that the Lord Himself would supervise the punishment of the murmurers. The book of Hebrews tells us that it is a fearful thing to fall into the hands of the Lord (Hebrews 10:31). You really do not want to be on the receiving end of God’s judgement. So, repent today! May the Lord help us, in Jesus’ Name.
