SATURDAY JULY 1 TEXT: ACTS 1:9-11 KEY VERSE: “Behold I come quickly, and my reward is with me, to give every man according as his work shall be.” Revelation 22:12. Jesus promised to return for His people to take them home in rapture. The signs of His return are revealed to us through various happenings and revelations. Heaven is fully prepared for this great spiritual event. When we say, Jesus is coming back to the world, the question arises, “Where is He now?” He is in heaven, the abode of the true God, the place of everlasting life. When we say, Jesus is coming to the earth again, the question also arises: “Has He been in the earth before?” Yes, He came physically in earthly human body. “Who is He?” He is the Lord. What did He come to do in His first coming? He came as: • A Saviour to save us from our sin. • A Lamb of God to sacrifice Himself for our salvation. • A Mediator to reconcile

FRIDAY JUNE 30 TEXT: ACTS 10: 42 – 48 Key verse: “While Peter yet spake these words, the Holy Ghost fell on all them which heard the word” Acts 10: 44 A sister in Enugu State received salvation and Holy Ghost baptism at a go! Praise the Lord! Alleluia! There was a repeat performance of the demonstration of the supernatural occurrence that took place in the household of Cornelius during the ministration of Apostle Peter. The Horemow Zonal Coordinator for the South East, testified that during his visit to Enugu State for their State Combined Chapter meeting, the Lord moved mightily in the program. After the fellowship, he gave attention to counseling the brethren. While this was going on, a member of the State Committee came to tell the Coordinator that there was a sister that was under heavy conviction of the Holy Spirit and that she desired the Coordinator to lead her to Christ. The sister w

YOU ARE NOT OF THIS WORLD THURSDAY JUNE 29 TEXT: JOHN 17: 6-14 Key verse: “If ye were of the world, the world would love his own: but because ye are not of the world, but I have chosen you out of the world, therefore the world hated you” John 15:19 Jesus often spoke of the world and He prayed for His disciples. He said of His disciples that He had manifested the name of the Father unto His disciples. The disciples had become convinced that Jesus had come from God. God created the habitable world and He is the owner of all things created. When Jesus spoke about leaving the disciples in the world he was speaking about the natural creation, the natural habitation of men on earth made up of countries, nations, cities and villages. But Satan came into this natural world and influenced the men of this world with sin, rebellion and hatred of God and that furnished another world that the devil is the god of. It forms another world tha

Shall we continue in sin, that grace may abound?” Romans 6: 1 Why are you continuing in sin? Does Christ need to die again every day for you? No! don’t you ever say “you know that we are not perfect Christians! God knows that we are trying!” These are words of people of the world, those who are yet to know Jesus well. Does Christ die every day? No! Then why must you be sinning? He is able to save them to the uttermost. He is able to bring you to the perfection of life by that one death because of His blood that was shed at Calvary. There are people that have believed and are living daily in righteousness and holiness. There are people that are living like that. Their lives are clean, holy and perfect. Jesus has made atonement for your sins. It means as you come to Christ in sincerity, you can be established in His purity. Ephesians 5:25-27. 25

FORGIVE OTHERS AS CHRIST FORGIVES YOU TUESDAY JUNE 27 TEXT: MATTHEW 18: 25 – 35 Key verse: “And forgive us our debts, as we forgive our debtors” Matthew 6: 12 To forgive means to give up resentment of or claim to requital revenge for an offence. It also means to grant relief from payment of a debt and to pardon someone’s wrong doings. Using the parable of the wicked servant (Matthew 18: 25 – 35), the Lord Jesus Christ illustrated that the forgiveness we obtained from God is conditional and depends on whether or not we forgive those who offend us. He also taught that those who obtained forgiveness from God should give and ask for forgiveness from their fellows who they have offended. Hence, if you claim forgiveness from God and cannot forgive your offenders, that forgiveness from God is cancelled. This is because God granted you forgiveness conditionally just like the law court can grant someone bail based on the agreement that c

POWER OF EXEMPLARY LIFE MONDAY JUNE 26 TEXT: MATTHEW 5: 13-16 Key Verse: “But ye are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, an holy nation, a peculiar people; that ye should shew forth the praises of him who hath called you out of darkness into his marvellous light” 1 Peter 2: 9 The Lord is calling you to a life of example and that life is called the life of light. You are a light to the world, you are a city built on a hill, a light lighted and put on top of a table that men may see, and be helped, and follow, your life is an example. There is a story told of a muslin student in a university who told his class mate of a person passing by and said if that person preaches Jesus to him, he will believe because he has seen the life of that person, he is living exemplary life. Again, a children teacher was teaching and describing whom Jesus was in character, life style and behaviour, how loving Jesus is as he was describing Jesus,

Among the horrors she saw was the scene of those who defaulted in tithes and offering when they were on earth. Here is her account: Every man according as he purposeth in his heart, so let him give; not grudgingly, or of necessity: for God loveth a cheerful giver. 2 Cor 9:7. This man kept pleading, 'Lord, forgive Me.' But the Lord replied, 'It is too late, there is no opportunity for you. 'I asked the man, 'But, why did you rob God, why? You knew very well we cannot steal God's tithes and offerings.' He answered, 'Yes, I knew very well, but never did follow it. I never did bec

Ye worship; ye know not what. People have not understood righteousness and holiness. Large congregations of Christians gather but righteousness is not emphasized. Righteousness and holiness has disappeared in churches and God is seeking for people that will be willing to serve in righteousness and holiness. God is working to purify your thoughts and your hearts. God is looking for workers and ministers to serve Him in righteousness and holiness. Many ministers and pastors are serving God without the vision of righteousness and holiness. You preachers and teachers

TESTIMONY OF A RADIANT CHRISTIAN FRIDAY JUNE 23 TEXT: MATTHEW 5: 13 – 16 Key verse: “Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven” Matthew 5: 16 A Moslem man saw a believer. I think it was at the University of Technology Yola, as I heard the story. The believer was just passing by, and as he was passing, the Moslem was peeping through a window in his room, and pointed to the believer. He said, if that Christian man there will come and preach to me, I will believe. Amen. They will believe your preaching. They will believe your message. By your new life, by your holy life, by your righteous life, by your truthfulness, by your faithfulness, people shall bow to Jesus. People shall surrender to Jesus. The dead Church shall understand righteousness. Members of your Church shall know that a Christian is among them. Exploits will follow you. You will stand in the ga

REPENTANCE CONFESSION AND RESTITUTION IN MARRIAGE THURSDAY JUNE 22 TEXT: LUKE 18:9-14 Key verse: “Follow peace with all men, and holiness, without which no man shall see the Lord” Hebrews 12: 14 The required attitude everyone should process is humility. This is foundational and you must have it if you want a peaceful home; The next quality is fear of God. Always know that there is a superior personality in that fondly which God; Passionate desire to enter heaven. Luke 18:9-14 Beware of self Righteousness. Such a heart cannot respond to any error in his life and never sees anything wrong in what he is doing. Such can never accept guilt. Don’t be this type of marriage partner that is too righteous to be corrected. Wife, be in a submission spirit Always ready to apologize Psalm34:18. This type of person is always willing to amend his life. He can confess his sin easily. Job 35:5-8 Look onto heaven and see, and behold the cl
BELOVED YOU STILL HAVE GREAT OPPORTUNITY As a living dog is better than a dead lion,  so a living backslider or Sinner is better than a lost soul in Hell because they are eternally lost,  but as for you sinner or backslider who are yet to cross over to a merciless Eternity,  you can still escape,  this very hour you can have your name written in the book of life. Realize yourself as a sinner,  confess your sin sincerely from your heart,  He will forgive you and have your name written in the Book of life. Welcome to the family of God.

Jesus is the truth and we must sell all we have to buy Jesus while we know His value in our life concerning eternal life."Jesus said to him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man comes to the father, but by me" John 14:6. The truth must cost us to sacrifice personal honour and glory, prestige, human favour and family love in order to secure doctrines of truth. Some people even sacrifice their secular work and career to buy this truth. Don't sell this truth once you buy it as it is of a great price such as pearls. Don't allow this truth to slip off your hand, hold it tight, don't give it away, your eternity depends on it. Many who knew this truth eventually

HOLINESS AND RIGHTEOUSNESS IN DAILY LIFE AND SERVICE MONDAY JUNE 19 TEXT: LUKE 1: 67 – 80 Key Verse: “In holiness and righteousness before him, all the days of our life” Luke 1: 75 This can be achieved by daily devotional life, meditation on God’s word, commitment to personal prayers and personal discipline. “Now ye are clean through the word which I have spoken unto you.” “Wherewithal shall a man cleanse his way? By taking heed there with according to Thy word.” Without attending to daily bible reading, righteousness and holiness is impossible. You need the word and daily reading of holiness materials to cleanse you daily. The reading of the word makes you see yourself the way you are (your daily mirror). Prayer is also significant in your holy life. Ask, seek and find God’s promised sinless life. Ye shall call upon me and go to pray unto me. In prayers; then He shall answer. Jeremiah 29: 11, 12 “For I know the thoughts that I

Knowledge has increased, that’s why we need to have knowledge of medicine, because your body needs it to be preserved. It is essential to avail yourself of appropriate medical care in times of need. If you allow that stomach ache there, you cannot rise up, you won’t be able to stand up in the pulpit. Can you? With a biting stomach ulcer? You cannot move because your body has been affected. What if an accident happens and they have to amputate your leg? Brother, automatically many things about the gospel will be limited in your life. What if you were to lose your eyes, because Cataract is coming up in your eyes and you don’t both
POWER OF THE HOLY GHOST SUNDAY JUNE 18 TEXT: ACTS 10:38 Key Verse: “And it shall come to pass afterward, that I will pour out my spirit upon all flesh; and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, your old men shall dream dreams, your young men shall see visions” Joel 2: 28 Beloved, do you know Jesus Christ was successful in His ministry by the power of the Holy Ghost. You too can live the life of Christ and be successful in your ministry under the unction of the Holy Ghost, that is why He promised, “ye shall receive power after that the Holy Ghost is come upon you and ye shall be witnesses unto me both in Jerusalem and in all Judea and in Samaria and unto the uttermost parts of the earth” Acts 1: 8. The subject of the Holy Ghost spans from the beginning of the Scriptures to the very end. No believer can go far or achieve anything in his Christian life without the power, influence, control and strength of the Holy Ghost. The Holy Ghost is a Divine Personality, every born again b

She turned herself, and saith unto him, Rabboni; which is to say, Master” John 20: 16 A backslidden lady from one of Gospel Churches testified of God’s Divine guidance and direction to the venue of Horemow Crusade, which resulted in her restoration to the Lord. She had been a believer but had backslidden. She narrated how her attention was drawn to the Holiness Revival Movement crusade ground. On her way back from her working place, God ordered her steps such that, as she was returning from work, she came across the Crusade. According to her, what actually caught her attention were the striking things she heard from the preacher. She also wondered that in this era of prosperity messages, some people could still preach the type of undiluted message coming from the man of God. As the message was still going on, she heard

CAREFULNESS IN CHRIST’s CHURCH FRIDAY JUNE 16 TEXT: 1 TIMOTHY 3: 14 – 16 Key verse: “But if I tarry long, that thou mayest know how thou oughtest to behave thyself in the house of God, which is the church of the living God, the pillar and ground of the truth” 1 Timothy 3:15 There is need for carefulness in the Church of Christ. Although we see not our Lord with the naked eyes, but He is with us, for He says, For I am with you always even unto the end of the world. For He had said, Where 2 or 3 are gathered in My name, there I am in the midst of them. Don’t think because you do not see Jesus physically here, in Holiness Revival Movement, you can do what you want. These things saith He that walketh in the midst of the seven golden candlesticks. He goes up and down, checking everything. Make sure you keep order in His Church. Respect apostolic authority. God has given this work to someone. Submit yourself to him. The Bible says, Consider the

WIN SOULS FOR CHRIST THURSDAY JUNE 15 TEXT: 2 TIMOTHY 4:1-5 Key Verse: “But watch thou in all things, endure afflictions, do the work of an evangelist, make full proof of thy ministry” 2 Timothy 4: 5 God wants all to be saved. The cost of securing the salvation of man from shows how much God cares for souls. Do all you can righteously to win souls for God. Use Christian materials; books, CDS, DVDs, get them and travel far, if you are to sell them, sell them outside this country, we want this message to go out. The books are available for you to read. Get the materials and give it to the people to read. The CDs are there, the DVDs are there, the audio that you can play in your cars.

THE DUTY OF PRAYER WEDNESDAY JUNE 14 TEXT: MATTHEW 7:7-11 Key verse: “Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God” Philippians 4:6. Here the Lord reveals to us our duty as long as we want good things from Him for ourselves and for others. If we do so then we must engage ourselves in the duty of prayers by asking, seeking and knocking even when the circumstances look hard. Talking about the challenges of life, the Lord Jesus is saying that our faith in Him and prayer to our God will bring solution, but some cases may require fasting. This was seen among the Jews when Esther declared three days fasting and prayer and requested the Jews to fast for her. Don't expect things to work automatically, rather God expect you to ask and enquire from Him, so He can release the good things He kept for you, but if you do not ask He will still keep th

GOD SPEAKS THROUGH DREAMS TUESDAY JUNE 13 TEXT: GENESIS 37: 8 – 11 Key verse: “And he said, Hear now my words: If there be a prophet among you, I the LORD will make myself known unto him in a vision, and will speak unto him in a dream” Numbers 12: 6 From our text, the future was involved in those dreams. The Lord communicated Joseph’s future to him through dreams. But as for some people, maybe the dream you dreamed came from Satan. Every future that the devil planned for your life, we cancel it in Jesus name. Amen. The one that God has is the one that will stand forever. So Joseph’s future was described to him in a dream, in the language that he may not understand. . . we were gathering sheaves, my sheaf stood upright and eleven sheaves bowed down before my sheaf. Which means a circumstance is coming. God is leading you steadily forward. Your brethren shall depend on you. Okay. No, it goes beyond that. I dreamed again another one! The sun

And Isaac brought her into his mother Sarah's tent, and took Rebekah, and she became his wife; and he loved her: and Isaac was comforted after his mother's death.” Genesis 24: 67 Isaac got Rebecca and had to examine her; do I accept this woman although the dowry has been paid, marriage has not been formed. The parents have released her, Isaac was not there and there was still a process left. Isaac brought her into his mother’s tent, they were in a room, then he took her and she became his wife –one flesh. There was knowledge of one another; they had sexual intercourse that completed everything. Which means that up to that moment Isaac can reject that lady by not touching her, but to consummate it he took her into a room and lay with her. Now we can see the role of sexual intercourse in consummation of marriage. It is important because, there

SERVING UNDER A LEADER SUNDAY JUNE 11 TEXT: NUMBERS 8: 9 – 11 Key verse: ‘Take the Levites instead of all the firstborn among the children of Israel and the cattle of the Levites instead of their cattle; and the Levites shall be mine: I am the LORD.’ Numbers 3: 45 We are serving God, but we are serving under a leader. It is the will of God that men serve under leaders. If you are too great to serve under leaders, you have missed Divine plan. If you lack the humility to humble yourself under leaders, you have missed it. You have not come to Christ, or else, the grace you received has gone away. Otherwise, Christ is humble. He was born in a humble place. Christ submitted Himself to men to lead Him for some time, and you are too big, you are too great, you are too high. Forget life!

DIVINE HEALING FROM STRANGE SICKNESS SATURDAY JUNE 10 TEXT: LUKE 8: 43 – 48 Key verse: “Call unto me, and I will answer thee, and show thee great and mighty things, which thou knowest not” Jeremiah 33: 3 The Lord delivered a sister from a strange and undiagnosed sickness during a Crusade held by Holiness Revival Movement Worldwide. The sister had a complicated and chronic illness such that harmful organisms were living inside her body system. She had visited several hospitals for treatment with little or no improvement. But, during the Holiness Revival Movement crusade in Enugu, she had a wonderful encounter with the Lord Jesus Christ. After responding to the message of life, she came out for prayers and was prayed for by the man of God, According to her, the following day, to her perplexity, she saw maggots coming out of her body through the nostrils and mouth. Thereafter, she was totally delivered and healed from this undi

RESTITUTION AND PERSONAL CLEANSING FOR HOLY USES FRIDAY JUNE 9 TEXT: 2 TIMOTHY 2:19-22 Key verse: “Many of them also which used curious arts brought their books together, and burned them before all men: and they counted the price of them, and found it fifty thousand pieces of silver.” Acts 19: 19 Restitution simply means correcting the wrong behaviors, acts and offences done by individual when he repents. It includes: relinquishing false claims, certificates, accusations, lies, destroying satanic properties and confessing evil practices openly and reconciling with offended ones. Personal cleansing involves removal of all items of witchcraft such as: handkerchief collected from demonic pastors and bishops, polluted anointing oil, sand, rings, charms, powders, combs and such likes. If you go to a big house you will find different utensils in the house. Some plates are to be used in honorable times; other plates are for common use. There are

HUMILITY, THE HALLMARK OF TRUE CHRISTIANITY THURSDAY JUNE 8 TEXT: DEUTERONOMY 20: 19 Key Verse: “let nothing be done through strife or vain glory; but in loveliness of mind let each esteem other better than the themselves” Philippians 2: 32 Beloved, humility is the essential ingredient in Christian life which was central in the life and ministry of Christ. Jesus is God but made Himself of no reputation and took upon Himself the form of a servant, and was made in the likeness of men. A humble man thinks of God first, others second, and himself last. He carries the burden of others and does not get offended when others seem not to carry his own burden. Humility is having a contrite spirit and a broken heart. A humble person is a man of prayer because he does not depend on his own ability but relies solely on God. The opposite of humility is pride and pride goes before a fall. For God despises the proud but gives grace to the humble. Pride c

WORKING OUT YOUR REVEALED FUTURE WEDNESDAY JUNE 7 TEXT: JEREMIAH 18: 1 - 10 Key verse: “When I shall say to the righteous, that he shall surely live; if he trust to his own righteousness, and commit iniquity, all his righteousnesses shall not be remembered; but for his iniquity that he hath committed, he shall die for it” Ezekiel 33: 13 God’s good plan concerning your future as an individual is not irreversible. Many people that God planned to give a good future are already dead now, many are mad on the streets now. Some gave themselves to drugs. Many got into HIV business. They contacted HIV/AIDs and lost their future. Some were affected seriously and some have died. They have to trace their way back to God for God to repair them. Many youths got into some other things. Some are in prison now. I heard of someone that was sentenced for 300 years! Which type of human being will live for 300 years to serve that jail term?

SPEND YOUR MONEY FOR GOD TUESDAY JUNE 6 TEXT: 2 CORINTHIANS 9: 1-15 Key Verse: “Give, and it shall be given unto you; good measure, pressed down, and shaken together, and running over, shall men give into your bosom. For with the same measure that ye mete withal it shall be measured to you again.” Luke 6: 38. Many don’t spend their money for God. Someone taking N10,000, can spend N500.00 for evangelism every month. N20,000 can spend N1000 every month for evangelism. Many want to buy big cars. Many are so full of the earth. As a Christian when your money increases, why shouldn’t evangelism increase in your life? You will regret it in the future if you don’t do so. If you buy only one DVD per month, you would have bought 12 in a year. But you don’t bother about them. Some who have died and are now in hell are crying with your name in hell. Our sister Linda was crying with the name of her blood sister Finda in hell when she was taken there,

Jesus has conquered death and given victory to His children. Alleluia! The Lord demonstrated His awesome power once again in Holiness Revival Movement Worldwide by raising a dead child back to life in the house of a Horemow Chapter Coordinator in Abuja Zone. The child was brought in very sick by the parents to the home of the Chapter Coordinator, to request for assistance for medical bills and general welfare. While the mother of the child was still narrating her circumstances to the wife of the Chapter Coordinator, the condition of the child suddenly grew worse, as he started struggling for breathe. Not quite long afterwards, the child died! What a shock it was! At first they were confused as to what next to do,

THE PLACE OF LEISURE AND RELAXATION SUNDAY JUNE 4 TEXT: MARK 6: 30 – 32 Key Verse: “And he said unto them, Come ye yourselves apart into a desert place, and rest a while: for there were many coming and going, and they had no leisure so much as to eat” Mark 6: 31 Look at this scripture, take time to rest. The rest may not be too long at a time, but you need rest. The Bible said, leisure. It means, do something that will relax your heart and that will give your mind joy and peace. Some may just go and sit by a river and be watching as it flows. ’Eh! You left preaching? You didn’t go for evangelism?’ “I returned from evangelism and I want to recover. That is why I am sitting by this river to watch the creation of God. I take delight in watching the creation of God and it gives me leisure”. That is what the Lord expects of you. Be free to do that. Or else, you go and sit in a garden, beside the flowers and you take leisure. For some, there may

BELIEVING AND UNBELIEVING HUSBAND AND WIFE SATURDAY JUNE 3 TEXT: 1 PETER 3:1-7 Key Verse: “Likewise, ye wives, be in subjection to your own husbands; that, if any obey not the word, they also may without the word be won by the conversation of the wives” 1 Peter 3: 1 If your husband is an unbeliever, the Bible commands you to submit to him even in his life of sin and to live a holy life before him. A person who does not believe commits various types of sins: Adultery, drunkenness, fighting, lying, abusing, and marrying another wife; with all these, the Lord still says submit to him. Why are you so proud, that because your husband married a second wife you say, ‘never, I cannot share my husband with her’, you will go and share him with her in hell. That’s scripture, God says submit, the Lord knows he’s a sinner and a sinner can do anything and that tells you of those who are saying immorality can cause divorce it’s a lie because the Bible say

DESIRE THE STRONG MEAT OF THE WORD OF GOD FRIDAY JUNE 2 TEXT: JOHN 6: 60 – 69 Key verse: “Many therefore of his disciples, when they had heard this, said, This is an hard saying; who can hear it?” John 6: 60 The passage is talking about people that were direct disciples of our Lord Jesus Christ. Who spoke the words that were too difficult for them? JESUS. Why didn’t Jesus speak soft words? Now, what kind of words that Jesus speaks? In verses 68 and 69 – 68 Then Simon Peter answered him, Lord, to whom shall we go? thou hast the words of eternal life. 69 And we believe and are sure that thou art that Christ, the Son of the living God. So, that means that the words of eternal life can be difficult. There are people who don’t want to hear the words of eternal life, because they are too difficult. Where will those people end their lives? Hell fire. I forewarn you because when you eventually hear that part of the teachings God has for you condemn

GOD DEMANDS INWARD PURITY THURSDAY JUNE 1 TEXT: EPHESIANS. 5:1-16 Key Verse: “Lie not one to another, seeing that ye have put off the old man with his deeds” Colossians 3: 9 The Gospel of heart purity comes to you and to the church, why? Though we have come to love Jesus, there are things we do as we live with one another. Sometimes we do things that are bad. We still manifest some pride and we are still competing with one another, still angry against one another. We envy one another. Are you singing in the choir but still having struggle between you and your sister? If you notice that there is holiness in you but some little lies are still being told, then run for your sanctification. Genesis 18: 11 – 15.

CARE FOR YOUR BODY AND LIFE WEDNESDAY MAY 31 TEXT: MARK 6: 30 - 32 Key Verse- “And the very God of peace sanctify you wholly; and I pray God your whole spirit and soul and body be preserved blameless unto the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ.” Thessalonians 5: 23 God is willing to get your body preserved. Many died before their due time. They neither cared well nor gave attention to this body.
