FIRE SCRIPTURE: Matthew 26:36-46 (KJV)
36 Then cometh Jesus with them unto a place called Gethsemane, and saith unto the disciples, Sit ye here, while I go and pray yonder.
37 And he took with him Peter and the two sons of Zebedee, and began to be sorrowful and very heavy.
38 Then saith he unto them, My soul is exceeding sorrowful, even unto death: tarry ye here, and watch with me.
39 And he went a little farther, and fell on his face, and prayed, saying, O my Father, if it be possible, let this cup pass from me: nevertheless not as I will, but as thou wilt.
40 And he cometh unto the disciples, and findeth them asleep, and saith unto Peter, What, could ye not watch with me one hour?
41 Watch and pray, that ye enter not into temptation: the spirit indeed is willing, but the flesh is weak.
42 He went away again the second time, and prayed, saying, O my Father, if this cup may not pass away from me, except I drink it, thy will be done.
43 And he came and found them asleep again: for their eyes were heavy.
44 And he left them, and went away again, and prayed the third time, saying the same words.
45 Then cometh he to his disciples, and saith unto them, Sleep on now, and take your rest: behold, the hour is at hand, and the Son of man is betrayed into the hands of sinners.
46 Rise, let us be going: behold, he is at hand that doth betray me.

MFM Devotional For Today 2022 MESSAGE:
Finding and doing the will of God should be the goal of every Christian. This is because doing and staying in the will of God is what separates believers from unbelievers as well as heaven bound individuals from the hell-bound ones.
The Bible paints a good picture of what the will of God is in Matthew 26:39. As Jesus prayed in the Garden of Gethsemane, He cried to the Father to take the cup from Him. He, however, added, “Not my will but Your will be done, Father.” The will of the Father was that Jesus should die so that mankind would be saved from sin and its consequences. Therefore, the will of God is the sovereign plan of God that will happen in the coming hours.

In Matthew 12:50, Jesus said that whoever does the will of His Father is His brother or His sister. Why is it important that you find and do the will of God? The Bible provides some answers to the question. Matthew 7:21 says, “Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven.” Since the ultimate goal of every Christian pilgrim is to make heaven, it is important to find the will and do the will of God at all times. The Bible provides another reason in 1 John 2:17, “And the world passeth away, and the lust thereof: but he that doeth the will of God abideth for ever.” Here, Apostle John reveals that a natural outcome of salvation is receiving the grace and power to do the will of God (Ephesians 2:10). He also means that while other earthly things will perish one day, a believer who does the will of God and lives in constant fellowship with Him will go on forever.
How can you do the will of God? First, in 1 Thessalonians 5:18, Apostle Paul counselled that the will of God is that we thank Him all the time and for all things. Second, he added that we hold our bodies, souls and spirits in sanctification and abstain from fornication (1 Thessalonians 4:3). Beloved, are you doing God’s will?
