HOLINESS REVIVAL MOVEMENT WORLDWIDE Daily Devotional EVERY WORD OF GOD FOR DAILY LIVING  _BY_ *PASTOR PAUL RIKA*  Int'l Director        (Holiness Revival Movement Worldwide) THURSDAY NOVEMBER 1 , 2018  _TOPIC:_    *YOU WILL SUCCEED AS CHRIST DID BY PRAYER*           TEXT: John 16: 23-24. KEY VERSE: It came to pass, as He was praying in a certain place, when He ceased, one of His disciples said, Lord, teach us how to pray as John taught his disciples. Luke 11: 1. When Jesus Christ came to us in the flesh, He went into the business of prayer because He was promoting the attribute of God as a prayer-answering God. He would not render that attribute idle or redundant. Nobody knew how John did it, but Jesus reveals here that the success you saw in the ministry of John the Baptist, the victory you saw in his ministry, is because he was a prayer man. John so much valued prayer. He saw the essentials of prayer and taught his disciples to pray. How can we succeed witho

TOPIC: UNIQUE OCCURENCES DO NOT FORM DOCTRINES      OCTOBER Wednesday 31st TEXT: Joshua 10: 12-15 KEY VERSE: And there was no day like that before it or after it that the LORD hearkened unto the voice of a man: for the LORD fought for Israel. Joshua 10: 14 The Lord told Moses, “Speak to the rock and water shall come out, smite the rock water shall come out, is the rock producing water for the church now? Have you heard that the church of Christ gathered together in a great congregation, their water finished and they went and spoke to the rock and water came out? These are things that happen in His sovereignty, they are not the normal path He has provided for your normal living. There are promises for your normal life that God has provided and not for these other things some manifest pride in. Again, Joshua commanded the sun and the moon to stand still. It happened once, but by the impartation of the faith of the Holy Ghost in him. It

TOPIC: CLARIFICATIONS ON USE OF THREAD AND CUTTING OF HAIR      OCTOBER Tuesday 30th TEXT: 1 Peter 3: 1-6 KEY VERSE: Whose adorning let it not be that outward adorning of plaiting the hair, and of wearing of gold, or of putting on of apparel; 1 Peter 3: 3 QUESTION: When preaching to people and sharing HOREMOW materials, some of them will tell you that, if weavon is a sin then the thread that you are using to plait your hair is also a sin. They will ask us, do you know where that thread you are using came from? So I just want you to say something about it. Then the other question is about cutting of hair. Is it when you cut all your hair that the glory is gone or when you just cut it low cut? I want to know if cutting our hair is a sin. ANSWER: There is nothing wrong with plaiting your hair modestly with thread as long as you are not worldly in your design. Thread has been in use for many years before hair attachment came out. Once you

TOPIC: THE JUST MAN BELIEVES IN GOD      OCTOBER Monday 29th TEXT: Isaiah 50: 7-10 KEY VERSE: I have loved thee with an everlasting love: therefore with loving kindness have I drawn thee Jeremiah 31:3 The just man is conscious of the omnipresence nature of God. He is fully convinced that God is always with him in his problems and in his prospects. He knows that at the end of the tunnel, light shall replace darkness for him.  The just man knows that God will always come to his help at critical moments of life.  When the enemies besiege him, he is conscious of help coming to him from above.  That is why the Psalmist says he is not afraid. The just man knows of the omniscience nature of God. He knows that God is aware of the root, the origin and source of his problem; therefore, the days of the existence of his problem are numbered.  God who knows everything knows the end of that problem from the beginning. The just man lives and knows w

TOPIC: ASK ME TO DO IT FOR YOU      OCTOBER Friday 26th TEXT: Ezekiel 36: 25-37 KEY VERSE: Thus saith the Lord GOD; I will yet for this be enquired of by the house of Israel, to do it for them; I will increase them with men like a flock. Ezekiel 36: 37 “Then shall I sprinkle clean water upon you…” Can you see God promising to save the sinners, promising to give you a new heart: a heart of love, a heart of holiness, a heart of obedience? He is promising to perfect you. Among many other things, He said: “And I will put My Spirit within you, and cause you to walk in My statutes, and ye shall keep My judgments, and do them.” Ezekiel 36:27. In other words, God is saying, “I will give you My Spirit, and give you my grace, and put my power of righteousness within you that will cause you to live your life without offending me.” Doesn’t God know that you need the grace from Him to live a righteous life? Doesn’t God know that you need to fight

TOPIC: ANOINTING OIL MUST NOT REPLACE THE GOSPEL OF FAITH        OCTOBER Thursday 25th TEXT: Hebrews 11: 1-6 KEY VERSE: O foolish Galatians, who hath bewitched you, that ye should not obey the truth, before whose eyes Jesus Christ hath been evidently set forth, crucified among you? Galatians 3: 1 The gospel of Christ is called the gospel of faith. Without seeing you believe, but men will want to see and will want to touch. And will turn that which he sees and touch it to idol. So now, we see people who have exalted anointing oil, they’ve exalted it, they carried it about; without it faith has been destroy. If you want them to have faith brings out the anointing bottle. There are people that have exalted administration of injections so seriously, if they come to the hospital and you give them drugs without injections, you are wasting time; their faith is not going to catch that. So, even if the thing doesn’t need injection, what do you

John 17: 17 The Gospel of Sanctification deals with inner cleansing, inner purity, the purity of heart. The believer has become part of the church. The Bible says, Christ loved the church and gave Himself for it. For God so loved the world that He gave Jesus for it on the cross. Christ now loved the church and gave Himself for it. The death on the cross has dual purpose: (1). Bring the sinner to salvation in Christ; (2). Bring the believer to sanctification and purity of the heart.  So that is the message the believers need to hear: that your heart can be purified. It is just like when your cloth is dirty, you carry it to water and wash it, when you wash it in water you do another thing to it. What do you do? You rinse it. You carry it to another water to rinse it, at the first washing, dirt came out but there are still some lin

TOPIC: THE BASIS OF THE FAITH OF THE JUST        OCTOBER Tuesday 23rd TEXT: Acts 27: 22-25 KEY VERSE: For whatsoever is born of God overcometh the world: and this is the victory that overcometh the world, even our faith. Who is he that overcometh the world, but he that believeth that Jesus is the Son of God? 1 John 5: 4-5 We know that the just shall live by his faith. What is this faith? Faith is complete confidence in God and in His word. It is complete reliance on God’s promises. It is walking and living according to the instructions of God, though He is invisible to you. The just stands and leans on God. He relies on God and trusts in God. That is what makes the just to live. Apostle Paul could boldly and confidently declare that he belonged to God because he was a just man.  In whatever situation and circumstance of life, Paul lived because he was a just man. Paul said, he believed God with unwavering and unshakeable faith that w

TOPIC: CHRISTIAN ATTITUDE TOWARDS THE LAW      OCTOBER Monday 22th TEXT: Isaiah 30: 8-11 KEY VERSE: Woe unto them that decree unrighteous decrees, and that write grievousness which they have prescribed; Isaiah 10: 1 Continuation of revelation on America The Lord continued, “But, to win these people for God, you must not respect the laws of individual privacy that protect the citizens. You must be ready to break every law standing against the way of God in the lives of the people. You must damn the consequence. In this way you will be able to save some. You must go all out for Jesus as mad people among them. Mind not your lives: imprisonment, persecution, loss of jobs, deportation, for Christ’s sake and the gospel’s.  Isaiah 30: 8-11. 8 Now go, write it before them in a table, and note it in a book, that it may be for the time to come for ever and ever: 9 That this is a rebellious people, lying children, children that will not hear th

TOPIC: GET RID OF ENVY                  OCTOBER Sunday 21st TEXT: Philippians 2: 1-12 KEY VERSE: Charity envieth not 1 Corinthians 13: 4 Envy is the heart’s feeling of displeasure at the success of others. The envious heart wishes that only himself should be recognized among others as being good, successful and gifted. He is not comfortable when others are praised along with him or when someone performs better than him. The envious man does not appreciate the blessings, virtues or good performance of others. The envy in him makes him criticize and condemn others and makes him to seek to block or hinder the good in people’s life. Envy is one of the impurities of the heart that must be dealt with to make the heart love and appreciate God’s gift, goodness and blessing in other people’s life. Do not pretend over this battle of envy but face it squarely for your righteousness and holiness. God hates envy because it seeks to prevent God’s f

TOPIC: PRAYER-ANSWERING: AN ATTRIBUTE OF GOD      OCTOBER Saturday 20th TEXT: Ephesians 1: 15-18 KEY VERSE: O thou that hearest prayer, unto thee shall all flesh come. Psalm 65: 2 We know that God is holy. He is merciful. He is kind and possesses many other attributes. But do you know that there is an attribute of God that is not well known to many? Since God is holy, if something gets outside the holiness of God, do you expect God to honour it? No! Because He is holy, you cannot meet Him outside holiness. That is why He said, “And when ye stand praying, forgive, if ye have ought against any: that your Father also which is in heaven may forgive you your trespasses. But if ye do not forgive, neither will your Father which is in heaven forgive your trespasses.” Mark 11:25, 26. This means you should take the holiness part of God seriously when dealing with Him, because it is His essential attribute. There is another attribute of God whi

TOPIC: STRANGE DIMENSION IN USE OF ANOINTING OIL        OCTOBER Friday 19th TEXT: 1 Corinthians 14: 36-40 KEY VERSE: Abstain from all appearance of evil. 1 Thessalonians 5: 22 The use of anointing oil for healing of the sick is mentioned once by James, but then, you find anointing oil in another dimension in the present church. They use anointing oil to anoint ministers, where did you get the example from? Jesus did not anoint His disciples with oil; He didn’t anoint the Apostles with oil. The apostles did not anoint their under-ministers, under-shepherds with oil. When Paul and Barnabas were being commissioned to a missionary journey, the elders of the church did not anoint them with oil. They fasted and laid their hands upon them and prayed and released them. When Paul took Timothy, he did not anoint him with oil. Titus and all the other ministers were not anointed with oil. Then you who use anointing oil in your church to anoint min

TOPIC: CLARIFICATIONS ON USE OF FACIAL POWDER      OCTOBER Thursday 18th TEXT: Isaiah 3: 16-24 KEY VERSE: And when thou art spoiled, what wilt thou do?  Though thou clothest thyself with crimson, though thou deckest thee with ornaments of gold, though thou rentest thy face with painting, in vain shalt thou make thyself fair; thy lovers will despise thee, they will seek thy life. Jeremiah 4: 30 QUESTION: I heard from some people that the use of powder is not a sin but I told them it is a sin. Please tell us something about it in the bible, because some of us that have babies or children we still use powder for them. Even when we have rashes we still use them. I want to know if it is a sin to use powder. ANSWER: To use powder on your child’s body to arrest heat or any other thing is not wrong. To use powder on your own body, maybe medicated, while at home, to arrest heat is not wrong. But don’t paint your face with powder. Don’t paint y

TOPIC: CONTINUE TO BE JUST BEFORE GOD        OCTOBER Wednesday 17th TEXT: Daniel 6: 20-23 KEY VERSE: Ye are of God, little children, and have overcome them: because greater is He that is in you, than he that is in the world. 1 John 4: 4 There is an assurance to the just that if he continues in righteousness, no matter what happens to him, he shall triumph in life. They that believe in God are the all-time overcomers in life. Life is generally warfare. The battle is between the forces of light and darkness. Before the battle begins, it is already settled that the force of light will prevail.  The winning secret is the righteousness of the saint.  People of darkness cannot be righteous, so they remain the losers. Whatever is the confrontation between you and the devil; whatever is the bone of contention between you and an individual or an organization, if you can continue in righteousness, you will be the winner.  Keep yourself blameless

TOPIC: BY THEIR FRUITS YE SHALL KNOW THEM      OCTOBER Tuesday 16th TEXT: Matthew 7: 15-20 KEY VERSE: Woe be unto the pastors that destroy and scatter the sheep of my pasture!  saith the LORD. Jeremiah 23: 1 There are pastors who come out to be shepherds of God, but they are scattering the work of God. They are pastors, they are preachers but what are they doing? They are scattering the work. They are not teaching the people, they are feeding them with contrary things. But then, there are pastors that are true after the heart of God. So there are pastors that scatter the flock, and there are pastors according to the heart of God. There are two types of pastors, the ones that scatter, scatter the sheep, they are not teaching them, the ones that teach them according to the word of God; giving them correct knowledge and understanding. How do we know them? How do we know the pastors that scatter? The pastors that teach the truth, the Bibl

TOPIC: GET RID OF ANGER      OCTOBER Monday 15th TEXT: Matthew 5: 17-25 KEY VERSE: Be ye angry, and sin not: let not the sun go down upon your wrath: Neither give place to the devil. Ephesians 4: 26-27 Anger is a natural feeling of pain and displeasure arising from the heart against a person for a bad action or against a bad circumstance. Anger has a high tendency of causing people to sin and of defiling a holy person. The emotion of anger seeks to take over the reasoning and demands immediate action. Be careful of what thoughts you allow into your mind, what words you allow through your mouth and what action you take when you are angry. Ask yourself the following questions when you are angry: Am I right to be angry at this person or circumstance? Am I not truly at fault? Am I not misunderstanding issues here? Have I gathered sufficient facts on this matter? Is this person actually wrong? Is this circumstance actually unfavourable? You

TOPIC: DON’T SHIFT YOUR RESPONSIBILITY TO GOD      OCTOBER Sunday 14th TEXT: 2 Corinthians 10: 3-6 KEY VERSE: For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, saith the LORD, thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you an expected end. Then shall ye call upon Me, and ye shall go and pray unto Me, and I will hearken unto you. Jeremiah 29: 11-12 God is saying in the key verse, “Don’t shift your responsibility to Me. I know what you are looking for, but I am waiting for you to pray.” That is a wonderful privilege.  It shows that there is something you give to God whenever you come into prayer, and it is that very thing that you give to God through prayer that makes you to receive. “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). The woman that runs a

TOPIC: CLARIFICATION ON USE OF ANOINTING OIL        OCTOBER Saturday 13th TEXT: 1 Thessalonians 5: 17-22 KEY VERSE: Prove all things; hold fast that which is good. 1 Thessalonians 5: 21 When Elisha was to decree that the Shunamite woman will have a child, did He anoint the woman with oil? No. When the woman’s child died did Elisha used oil to bring the woman’s child back to life? Did Elijah use oil to bring the son of the widow of Zarephath back to life? Which means the way the anointing oil is used in our time is even strange to the Old Testament? The anointing oil in the Old Testament was used as a healing balm, commonly used by everybody; you have it in your house as we have liniments in our houses, in case any thing may happen you want to rub it, you are feeling cold you rub it, you have a fracture or something is swollen. So they have it as a balm, as a first aid in the family. Jesus told us a story of the good Samaritan; “A man

TOPIC: HOW DO YOU COME TO HOLINESS?        OCTOBER Friday 12th TEXT: Mark 16: 15-16 KEY VERSE: Because it is written, Be ye holy; for I am holy. 1 Peter 1: 16  You are going to the sinners and you are preaching the gospel, the good news of salvation in Christ to him and what is the gospel? The Kingdom of God is at hand, repent ye and believe on the Lord Jesus Christ. For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son that whosoever believes on Him should not perish but have everlasting life. So that is the gospel. Preach repentance and faith on the Lord Jesus Christ; not just repentance alone, but repentance and faith on the Lord Jesus Christ. Then when the sinner believes on the Lord Jesus Christ he should be baptized according to the word of God. He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved. He that believes, he has received Christ into His life, he is now born again, he is now a child of God. Then, to the child of God

TOPIC: BE NOT AFRAID, ONLY BELIEVE!      OCTOBER Thursday 11th TEXT: Psalm 91: 13-16 KEY VERSE: Truly God is good to Israel, even to such as are of a clean heart. Psalm 73: 1 The just shall live by his faith. This is both an exhortation and an instruction to every believer to relate with God personally.  God expects you to exercise personal faith in Him so that you may live. Whatever situation that arises against a just man, he is exhorted to have personal faith in God. Are you experiencing some invasions of the enemy in your life? Are sicknesses and diseases tormenting your life? Whatever opposition that comes against a just man; whatever mountain is standing against a just man, trying to instill fear into him, the Bible advises the just man to have faith in God in the presence of that great contrary situation, in order to live and overcome.  Have faith in God in spite of that great opposition and you shall conquer it and make progre

TOPIC: INFLUENCE OF AMERICA ON OTHER NATIONS      OCTOBER Wednesday 10th TEXT: Isaiah 47: 7-10 KEY VERSE: For her sins have reached unto heaven, and God hath remembered her iniquities Revelation 18: 5 Continuation of revelation on America America is the lawgiver of the world. It has become a god to the rest part of the world. The citizens feel the same thing. They feel on top of the world, seeing they can have access to many nations. Europe submitted to America and has gotten corrupt. Any country that submits to the control of America will receive America’s corruption. This corruption comes through the laws Satan enacts over such country. Satan will remove the fear and law of God and replace them with his own. America is like water flowing to the nations of the world. It has flowed to Europe and is heading to Africa. See it in the churches! Isaiah 47: 7-9. 7 And thou saidst, I shall be a lady for ever: so that thou didst not lay thes

TOPIC: GET RID OF FEAR!         OCTOBER Tuesday 9th TEXT: Numbers 13: 26-33 KEY VERSE: There is no fear in love; but perfect love casteth out fear: because fear hath torment. He that feareth is not made perfect in love. 1 John 4: 18 The Scripture says that there is no fear in love, because fear has torment. Fear is an instrument in the hand of Satan to torment man and render him weak and powerless. Ffear comes from the way a man thinks and reasons. Hence Satan tries to dictate the thought a person should think through suggestions and impartation of ideas to the mind. The thought of fear that plagues your mind against righteous decision and action is not from you nor from God, but from Satan. You need to know this, “Lest Satan should get an advantage of us; for we are not ignorant of his devices.” 2 Corinthians 2: 11. What makes you afraid now is what the devil has put into your mind to think. If you continue with that thought you will

TOPIC: JESUS’ EXEMPLARY PRAYER LIFE          OCTOBER Monday 8th TEXT: Romans 8: 26-27 KEY VERSE: And in the morning, rising up a great while before day, He went out, and departed into a solitary place, and there prayed. Mark 1: 35 Jesus was constantly praying to His Father in heaven. One would wonder and ask: “But, Jesus, did You not come to the earth as God Yourself? Whatever You wanted to do, couldn’t You have done it; did You need to talk to the Father? Are You not one with the Father? Why must You pray?”  That is a mystery. It is a mystery we have to learn. Again, to the Father we could ask: “Father, were You not the One who sent Jesus to the earth? Did Jesus need to tell You that He was hungry, before You gave Him food? Did Jesus need to tell You that He was running short of money, before You gave Him money? Did Jesus need to tell You that He needed people healed in a crusade, before You started healing the people?” Since Jesus a

Amen. 1 John 5: 21 QUESTION: I am perplexed by the way anointing oil is generally used by many churches. I understand from scriptures from the book of Exodus 30:23 down, that it was mentioned. Secondly, what is the basis for the use of mantles? In the Acts of apostles, we are made to understand that aprons and handkerchiefs were being taken from the body of Apostle Paul for the healing of the sick. ANSWER: Concerning anointing oil, the scripture you quoted says, see that nobody makes anything of this like. That anointing oil was made specifically to anoint Aaron and his children and the instruments of the tabernacle. It didn’t go beyond that. In fact it was not the anointing oil used to anoint kings. So, the use was restricted to the tabernacle. It was the anointing oil used for normal rubbing on the

Exodus 33: 6 Do not dress in such a way that will entice people and promote sin. Use of articles of bodily beauty such as perfume, earrings, bracelets, beads, rings, weavon, hair attachment, is forbidden for holy Christians desirous of going to heaven. Sinful practices such as painting the face, nails, lips, use of beauty powders, bleaching of skin, dyeing of hair, wearing of false body parts like false nails, false hair, false breasts, false eyelashes, false heels, false teeth for beauty, etc, are ungodly and unbecoming of heaven bound saints  All these things are evil and condemned by the word of God. They constitute filthiness to the body which the Lord commands us to cleanse ourselves of them. Some believers are deceived into using wedding r

TOPIC: THE JUST SHALL LIVE BY FAITH        OCTOBER Friday 5th TEXT: Romans 1: 16-17 KEY VERSE: Behold, his soul which is lifted up is not upright in him: but the just shall live by his faith. Habakkuk 2: 4 When someone repents from sin and believes in the Lord Jesus Christ, he receives the salvation of God and becomes a new creature.  The Bible says, “Therefore, if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature. Old things have passed away and all things have become new” (2 Corinthians 5:17). His new relationship with God is characterized by newness of life, the fear of God, righteousness and obedience to God’s word.  He is considered a just and perfect man. The scriptures state emphatically that the just shall live by faith. The believer in Christ Jesus, who is righteous before God, shall live, survive, thrive, triumph and overcome by faith. He shall make progress and prosper by faith. This is the emphasis of the scriptures. The proud m

TOPIC: HOREMOW SHALL STAND!        OCTOBER Thursday 4th TEXT: Matthew 16: 16-19 KEY VERSE: And I say also unto thee, That thou art Peter, and upon this rock I will build my church; and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it. Matthew 16: 18 It is not in the plan of God that this Movement dies. It has been described prophetically as “The Last Mercy of God for Mankind,” and in several other ways, hence we know that God will not allow this Movement to die. It will stand to witness the Rapture of the Church in the Name of Jesus Christ! Amen. It is a joy to see what God is doing through this Ministry. People are heaving a sigh of relief all over the world in Churches and nations of the world of what God has begun to do in Holiness Revival Movement. He will do it to the end. So, that is the promise that God has given to us. Let’s pray that God will use this Movement and any other instrument that He will use to bring about this last d

TOPIC: PURIFY YOURSELF         OCTOBER Wednesday 3rd TEXT: 1 Thessalonians 5: 22-24 KEY VERSE: Having therefore these promises, dearly beloved, let us cleanse ourselves from all filthiness of the flesh and spirit, perfecting holiness in the fear of God. 2Corinthians 7:1 There are impurities of the heart and of the body that you must bring yourself to God to save and purify you, so you may live freely and fully in Christ’s righteousness and holiness. Some of the impurities of the heart may or may not be known by our fellow men, but are clearly known to God. The Holy Spirit often convicts the heart of men. Impurities of the heart defile the man and constitute sorrow to the believer who sees them manifest in his life. “But those things which proceed out of the mouth come from the heart; and they defile the man.” Matthew 15: 18. Let your goal in life be purity, holiness and perfection. Set your affection on God and heaven. Be dedicated to

TOPIC: GOD ABIDES IN THE HOUSE OF PRAYER          OCTOBER Tuesday 2nd TEXT: Isaiah 62: 6-7 KEY VERSE: Even them will I bring to My holy mountain, and make them joyful in My house of prayer: their burnt offerings and their sacrifices shall be accepted upon Mine altar; for Mine house shall be called an house of prayer for all people. Isaiah 56: 7 It is interesting to know that God has placed a high premium on prayer so much that even when Jesus came into the world, though being God in human body, He lived and walked in the spirit of prayer. You would wonder: “Doesn’t God know what to do and just go about doing it?” “Doesn’t God know what I need and should go about giving it to me?” “Doesn’t God see what the devil is doing and should go about attacking the devil, breaking him down?” “Doesn’t God see what my human enemies are doing and should find solution to them?” “Doesn’t God see what is going on in this nation (what the opposite reli
