MFM Daily Devotional Message Thursday 14th May 2026.

From our Fire Scripture, we see that the people of Babel wanted to build a tower that reached the heavens in an attempt to make a name for themselves and avoid being scattered across the earth. They desired to satisfy their self-interest, disregarding God’s original command to fill the earth and subdue it. They said, “Come, let us build ourselves a city, with a tower that reaches to the heavens,
so that we may make a name for ourselves; otherwise we will be scattered over the face of the whole earth” (Genesis 11:4).

Beloved, I want you to take note of the ambition of the builders of the Tower of Babel. Their very interest was to make a name for themselves. So, the construction of the tower was an act of pride and blatant disobedience to God in Genesis 9:1. They wanted to build a monument for their aggrandisement. God, seeing their pride and their desire to make a name for themselves rather than glorify Him, confused their languages, causing them to scatter across the earth.

The tower, which was a symbol of pride and arrogance was left unfinished. The Tower of Babel was not just an architectural project; it was a manifestation of humanity’s desire to challenge God. The people’s ambition was not for the glory of God but for their fame and security. The scattering and confusion of language was God’s way of showing that every effort to take His glory will ultimately fail.

Here, we learn that when we try to make a name for ourselves apart from God, we end up scattered and confused. These people sought to elevate themselves through human achievement rather than glorifying God. In response, God confused their language and scattered them, demonstrating that pride and self-glorification cannot thwart God’s plans.
