If I have non consecutive messages in a given sequence, is there any way
to read them consecutively?

For example, sequence picked with messages 94 95 114 126 155.
show 94 shows message 94, next shows message 95. But then next shows
message 96, not message 114 (which makes sense since 96 is the next
message but it's not what I want).

It's one of mh's hidden gems.  Use "picked:next", "picked:first",
"picked:last", "picked:prev".  I have wrapper commands that do all of
those.  "picked:3" and "picked:-2" also work.

It's in mh-sequences(1).
