March Sunday 1st TOPIC: EVIDENCES ABOUND OF CHRIST’S SOON RETURN TEXT: Matthew 24:32-35 KEY VERSE: Matthew 24:32 Now learn a parable of the fig tree; When his branch is yet tender, and putteth forth leaves, ye know that summer is nigh: Yes, there are many evidences that convince us of the soon return of our Lord Jesus Christ to the world. Firstly, we have the scriptural evidence. We have evidence from the Jewish nation as told by Jesus in the parable of the fig tree. We have evidence from present world events. We have evidence from Holy Spirit revelations in our time including Holiness Revival Movement. We have various evidences to show that the time is almost up. Jesus told us about His returning in John 14:13 “Let not your heart be troubled: ye believe in God, believe also in Me.2 In My Father's house are many mansions: if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you.3 And if I go and prepare a place fo

February 29 TOPIC: REPENT AND RETURN TO GOD BEFORE THE CURTAIN DRAWS TEXT: Isaiah 5:3-4 KEY VERSE: Jeremiah 2:5 Thus saith the LORD, What iniquity have your fathers found in me, that they are gone far from me, and have walked after vanity, and are become vain? Who is slowing you down? Did you get this thing from your leader? Was it your leader that caused you these pains? Leader, were you the one that caused rebellion among the people of God? Were you the one that caused murmuring and grumbling among the people of God? What wrong has God done to you that He deserves this treatment from you? Did God change or is He no more faithful? Why did you turn your back on Him? Did His word fail? Is He no more God?  Have you found the message He sent to you to be false or have you found any fault in it?  What made you to become weak like this?  Why is your zeal lost? What happened to you?  What iniquity have your leaders found in God that they tu

February Friday 28th TOPIC: WHERE IS HELL FIRE LOCATED?          Text: Numbers 16:31-33 Key verse: Proverbs 15:24 The way of life is above to the wise, that he may depart from hell beneath. Hell is located underneath the earth. As we are walking up and down on earth, we are practically walking on damned souls in hell fire. The Bible has always spoken of hell as a place below the earth. Luke 10:15 And thou, Capernaum, which art exalted to heaven, shalt be thrust down to hell. As we stand now we stand on damned souls in hell. Down to the earth beneath, locates a burning fire that God made for sinners. The revelations of the scripture show that before the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ, the souls of those who had died in the world whether righteous or sinners, went to a place of abode called hell to await resurrection to life eternal or to eternal damnation. Hence, it is a temporary place of the abode of the dead. If you do not

February Thursday 27th TOPIC: MARRYING IN GOD'S WILL AND THE BELIEVER’S COMMITMENT TEXT: Proverbs 3:5-7 KEY VERSE: Psalm 40:8 I delight to do thy will, O my God: yea, thy law is within my heart. Marrying in God’s will depends on the believer’s commitment and determination. The world is abandoned to sin and error because God is not in her way and they do as they like. When the Kingship of God is not recognized over a person's life, he does as he likes. This is so in marriage. Many have married the way they wanted because they don't know God. Jesus is not their Lord so they were ordered by some powers and they suffer for it. This has affected the course of Christ and Christianity. When God is not involved in their decision, do they have the power of good choice? They miss out on the course of God’s grace and get led astray. Only God knows how to give good things. Many are lamenting their wrong marriages and this eventually a

February Wednesday 26th TOPIC: REASONS FOR RESTITUTION 2 – NOTHING IS HIDDEN FROM GOD TEXT: Psalm 139:1-12 KEY VERSE: Job 34:21 For his eyes are upon the ways of man, and he seeth all his goings. God knows everything. Nothing is hidden from the Lord. All things are naked and opened unto the eyes of the Lord. Hebrews 4:13 Neither is there any creature that is not manifest in His sight: but all things are naked and opened unto the eyes of Him with whom we have to do. When you left your room and went to touch that lady, God saw it. Although nobody was with you, God who is omnipresent witnessed it and took note of it. That event is already recorded in His book of record in every detail. In fact, God has a video tape of it which may later have to be shown to you after death if you fail to restitute. When you left your office and went to the next office and took that thing that belonged to your colleague, God saw it although nobody might h

February Tuesday 25th TOPIC: BE LED BY INSPIRATION OF GOD, NOT BY CARNAL INSTINCTS TEXT: Judges 6:14-17 KEY VERSE: Judges 6:16 And the LORD said unto him, Surely I will be with thee, and thou shalt smite the Midianites as one man. In the book of Judges, the Lord was telling Gideon, you are a mighty man of valour, you are a warrior, you are a captain of the host, you will do great exploits for God, you will win great battle for God. Gideon said, “Who am I, what is my father’s house?” But God assured him to go and fight against the Midianites and that He will give them over to him. Gideon was not even sure it was God talking to him. He put out many tests to confirm it was God calling him into service and he received positive responses. To cap it all, God leaked to him a privileged information that the fear of Gideon had gripped the Midianite camp. Then Gideon became convinced and emboldened that he could win the battle. Gideon then bega

TEXT: Revelation 3:20-22 KEY VERSE: Revelation 3:11 Behold, I come quickly: hold that fast which thou hast, that no man take thy crown. A few years ago, Jesus appeared to a lady in Ghana whose child was ten years old. She was praying, “Lord, I have only one child, can You give me another?” Jesus laughed and said, “This child you have will not grow old enough to finish his university education before I come. Get ready for My coming!” Even a child will understand this simple language of Jesus Christ’ soon coming. She would know that if she just got admission into the university, she may not finish before Jesus comes. This is a high possibility in our day. This Jesus you have been hearing historically, whom you have been reading about in the Bible, we are the fortunate generation that will see Him live in the sky. Matthew 16:28 “Verily I say unto you, There be some standing here, whic
For taking the time to study remain blessed. February Sunday 23rd TOPIC: WHAT IT TAKES TO LIVE A LIFE OF POSITIVE INFLUENCE TEXT: 2Corinthians 4:1-2 KEY VERSE: 1Timothy 4:12 Let no man despise thy youth; but be thou an example of the believers, in word, in conversation, in charity, in spirit, in faith, in purity. 1Chronicles 29:6 Then the chief of the fathers and princes of the tribes of Israel, and the captains of thousands and of hundreds, with the rulers of the king's work, offered willingly. Here, we see how the people gave freely and willingly, but it did not just come automatically. Something provoked them to give. Earlier in verse 3 bible says of king David, “Moreover, because I have set my affection to the house of my God, I have of mine own proper good, of gold and silver, which I have given to the house of my God, over and above all that I have prepared for the holy house. David’s generosity provoked his followers into generous giving. After he had set the example h

February Saturday 22nd TOPIC: EVEN IN YOUR WEAKNESS, YOU CAN STILL DO GREAT EXPLOITS FOR GOD TEXT: 2 Kings 7:3-16 KEY VERSE: Isaiah 35:3 Strengthen ye the weak hands, and confirm the feeble knees. The story of the four lepers in today’s bible reading is an interesting one. Were they not miserable? They were even more miserable than other people that were perishing in the land. They said to themselves, “Let's go to the camp of the Assyrians. If they kill us, let us die. If they spare us, then they would give us food as they want.” It was by the inspiration of God that they went and to their utmost surprise, they discovered treasures. But which hands did these lepers use to work that they earned the reward of gold and silver? How come that the people with complete fingers had no food to eat, but they without had even surplus to spare? This is nothing but the mercy of God! Nothing but the miracle of God! And these lepers said to eac

February Friday 21st TOPIC: MANY PASTORS AND CHURCHES HAVE COMPROMISED ON RIGHTEOUSNESS AND FAILED GOD TEXT: Romans 2:28-29 KEY VERSE: Revelation 3:9 Behold, I will make them of the synagogue of Satan, which say they are Jews, and are not, but do lie; behold, I will make them to come and worship before thy feet, and to know that I have loved thee. God’s judgement is spiritual and infallible – it can never be wrong. When the Lord began to speak to me about some of these churches, I was confused and said to myself, “No, it can’t be possible.” More especially as it involved a church I knew to be a holy church. The Lord was saying, “How many will go to heaven there? Just scanty, here and there!” I wondered, “Why? I know these people have the doctrine. What went wrong?” But with time, I began to see the reality and repented of my doubt and said to myself, “Let God be true but every man a liar.” The Lord said the devil has sent many demons
For taking your time to study remain blessed. February Thursday 20th TOPIC: SUFFERING AND PERSECUTION ARE PART OF THE CHRISTIAN LIFE TEXT: 1 Peter 2:21-25 KEY VERSE: Matthew 10:38 And he that taketh not his cross, and followeth after me, is not worthy of me. Jesus is an example in suffering. His life was a bundle of suffering. He was a man of sorrows, acquainted with grief. In His birth, there was no room for Him. As He grew up in ministry the people would pick up stones to throw at Him until He was taken to the cross over false charges. Those who benefited in the miracle He performed denied Him for fear of men. They spat on His face, they slapped Him, they put a crown of thorns on His head, they struck Him with a spear, He was mocked till death. By these, He remains the best example for us in exemplary life.  Tradition has it that Peter had the privilege to suffer part of what Jesus went through. As his persecutors wanted to crucify him, he broke off and started running away. A
For taking your time to study remain blessed. February Wednesday 19th TOPIC: HOW YOU PREPARE YOURSELF DETERMINES HOW GOD USES YOU TEXT: 1 John 3:3-6 KEY VERSE: 2Timothy 3:17 That the man of God may be perfect, throughly furnished unto all good works. If you are a corrupt minister, you are just there by the wisdom of God. You may be gaining materially, but what is material gain? Can you compare material gain with eternal gain? In spite of your pollution of the church, God in His wisdom still keeps you there because you are serving His eternal plan. But you were not created a corrupt minister. It only happened that there were some things in your life which you needed to settle but did not. That is why you became corrupt and now qualify as a vessel for dishonourable use. There are things in your life that should be purged; things that should be perfected, but you neglected them and refused to do what is right. That is why you are being put to dishonourable use. Your name is in the s

February Tuesday 18th TOPIC: YOUR SUCCESS AND PROMOTION COMES FROM GOD ALONE        Text: Isaiah 51:12, 13 Key verse: Psalm 75: 6, 7 For promotion cometh neither from the east, nor from the west, nor from the south.  But God is the judge: He putteth down one, and setteth up another. Godly wisdom demands that you quickly remove your eyes from your boss in the office on the matter of your career, promotion and success. He has no power to promote and grant you success. Promotion is the prerogative of God alone. The promotion of man is a lie, deceit and temptation to sin. Fear God and trust in Him for that long-overdue promotion and watch out for what He will do. Is your boss angry and furious at you and threatening to demote you or terminate your appointment or to sit on your promotion? Never mind! Your boss has zero power to terminate, to demote or even promote you. The power to do so is in the hands of your God alone.  Believe and put

February Monday 17th TOPIC: TESTIMONY ON RESTITUTION TO MY WIFE – Senator Emmanuel Bwacha TEXT: 1 Samuel 12:1-5 KEY VERSE: Daniel 6:4  Then the presidents and princes sought to find occasion against Daniel concerning the kingdom; but they could find none occasion nor fault; forasmuch as he was faithful, neither was there any error or fault found in him.  Restitution is a path for a peaceful and glorious Christian life. What gives people worries in the world will not disturb you again and you will live with a clear conscience. For this reason, restitution is necessary for every Christian that is led to the Lord and has become born again. I will be sharing some testimonies with you to let you know that restitution is possible and to encourage you to do your own. Find below the testimony of Pastor Emmanuel Bwacha, a serving senator of the Federal Republic of Nigeria on the restitution he did. I have never heard or known abo
For taking your time to study remain blessed. February Sunday 16th TOPIC: IT IS FRUITLESS TO TRUST IN MAN AND PRINCES           Text: Jeremiah 17:5-8 Key verse: Psalm 118:8, 9 It is better to trust in the LORD than to put confidence in man. It is better to trust in the LORD than to put confidence in princes. Redirect your confidence from man to God. Are you putting confidence in your relations and perhaps your spouse? That is why you missed it. Put your confidence in your God. No matter the love your spouse has for you, he or she is capable of disappointing you. She is capable of going back on her promise to you. Trust in God rather than putting your confidence in man, for vain is the help of man. Man may make promise today and not be available to fulfill it tomorrow. He may promise to employ you in the office, but a higher power may remove him from office before he fulfills the promise. Man may even tell you something in sweet tongue to deceive you. He may make a promise with sincerit

February Friday 14th TOPIC: REVELATION: HOW I BACKSLID AND MISSED RAPTURE TEXT: 2 Peter 2:20-22 KEY VERSE: Hebrews 10:38 Now the just shall live by faith: but if any man draw back, my soul shall have no pleasure in him. Below is a revelation on rapture by a sister. I got to know about HOREMOW and holiness doctrine in 2015 when Pastor Rika and Mummy Linda held a 3-day crusade at Dutse Makaranta in Kubwa Zone, Abuja, Nigeria. I joined the Movement but it did not take long before I backslid due to pressures from my husband. He started complaining that the programmes I was attending were getting too much. I had to stop to satisfy him and remain in marriage. In the third week of August 2019, just before the Ministers’ Conference, I had a revelation of rapture in my dream. I saw that the trumpet sounded but as I was being raptured, I remembered my children that were not raptured and I looked down only to find myself on the ground with them

TEXT: Ezekiel 37:1-14 KEY VERSE: John 11:44 And he that was dead came forth, bound hand and foot with graveclothes: and his face was bound about with a napkin. Jesus saith unto them, Loose him, and let him go. Are you getting weary or tired? Don’t be discouraged. Your revival shall come! Dry bones shall rise again. Dead Lazarus shall resurrect. We wrestle not against flesh and blood but against principalities and powers. Take unto you the amour of God and do everything to recover and stand firmly on your feet. This is the moment of recovery. Your spiritual life must come back. How can a giant like you be lying down like an insect? A big insect is lying down and other ants will think it is dead, and they will organize themselves to carry it home to eat. Are you dead that demons will come and carry you to hell? I ask again, are you dead? Let those bands of insects that gather begin

February Wednesday 12th TOPIC: RESTITUTION OF FALSE DECLARATION OF MARITAL STATUS – By Sis Florence (France) TEXT: Jeremiah 3:12-13 KEY VERSE: Proverbs 28:13 He that covereth his sins shall not prosper: but whoso confesseth and forsaketh them shall have mercy. Testimony 1: Before I genuinely gave my life to Christ, some years ago I had gone to the Local Council with a man who falsely declared himself as the father of my daughter.  I had paid him to carry out this evil act just to enable me acquire France document that will enable me stay legally in the country. After joining Holiness Revival Movement (HOREMOW) in April 2013, I realized that I had to do my restitution.  My daughter called Praise, who was then 13 years old, had always seen herself differently in the house. She wasn't sure if my husband was her biological father because she had asked me several times why she was bearing a different surname from every other person in

TOPIC: THE PORTRAIT OF A HOLY CHRISTIAN YOUTH February Tuesday 11th TEXT: 1 Peter 1:14-16 KEY VERSE: 2Timothy 2:22 Flee also youthful lusts: but follow righteousness, faith, charity, peace, with them that call on the Lord out of a pure heart. Holiness of life is a call to every believer, whether young or old. 1Thessalonians 4:7 For God hath not called us unto uncleanness, but unto holiness. That is the example Jesus Christ laid down by His lifestyle for every true believer to emulate and follow. From Bible times till today, many (young and old) have lived a life of holiness in the face of temptations and travails in the world and gone to heaven. So, it is nothing strange or impossible as many think, even as a youth. The youthful Christian brother and sister can avoid peer pressures and live a life that pleases God in this perverse world. But to do this successfully, essential knowledge of the holy life is required, which includes the fo

February Monday 10th TOPIC: TESTIMONY OF DIVINE HEALING BY SIS ASTRID OF HOLLAND TEXT: Luke 8:49-50 KEY VERSE: Jeremiah 38:20 But Jeremiah said, They shall not deliver thee. Obey, I beseech thee, the voice of the LORD, which I speak unto thee: so it shall be well unto thee, and thy soul shall live. In October 2018, I came out of bed and was on my way to the kitchen when I discovered that I could not walk anymore. Just like that! Then Sis. Georgina from Holiness Revival Movement, Holland Chapter came over to see me and was assisting me to move around. I gave her a key to my house so that whenever my son was not at home, she could come in to help me with cooking and cleaning. The doctor visited and diagnosed muscle issue but I was not responding to treatment. HOREMOW Chapter in Holland and Belgium were interceding for me constantly.  One Sister outside Holiness Movement once counselled me to visit a witch doctor but I refused and kept

February Sunday 9th TOPIC: DON’T MORTGAGE YOUR SOUL FOR THE SPOILS OF SATAN TEXT: Genesis 3:1-10 KEY VERSE: 1John 1:9 If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness. Have you gone into the captivity of the enemy? Have you entered the spider’s web and you are tied roundabout, hanging there helplessly? You lack the strength to move forward and your life is now at the mercy of the devil; seriously endangered? Remember that you took yourself to that place.  You sold yourself cheap to the devil. Now, you have become a captive. The devil has gotten hold of you. The urge for masturbation is coming and you don’t know how to stop it. “I want to stop; I want to stop” is what you have been shouting but you can’t stop. The devil has taken firm control over your life.  How did you empty yourself that lust took over you so? Where did you go; what were you watching? Adam said, “I h

February Saturday 8th TOPIC: TAKE THE LEAD IN RIGHTEOUSNESS AND OTHERS WILL FOLLOW TEXT: Philippians 4:8-9 KEY VERSE: Philippians 3:17 Brethren, be followers together of me, and mark them which walk so as ye have us for an ensample. Brother, Sister, take the lead in righteousness in your environment. Take the lead in righteousness in your family. Take the lead in righteousness in your Church, in your office, in your school, everywhere! If you are among your colleagues, among Christians, among ministers or maybe you are in a program somewhere and some are not observing their quiet time, they are not doing morning devotion, they are not observing prayer time, they would wake up and just go into other things, don’t join them in doing that. If there is one pastor among them that would wake up and go on his knees to pray and thereafter take his bible to read, other pastors will feel guilty and join him. That way, you would have influenced

February Friday 7th TOPIC: AWARENESS AND ALERTNESS OF THE RAPTURE TEXT: 1 Thessalonians 4:13-18 KEY VERSE: 1Thessalonians 4:17 Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord. Rapture means the taking away of the followers of Jesus from the world to be with Him in heaven for celebration and rewards. This will take place before His final return to rule the earth for one thousand years. Let us take a quick look at the order of end time events. After the rapture, the anti-Christ will emerge and the world will go into the tribulation period when the anti-Christ will rule with his power of evil and wickedness.  After the seven-year tribulation period, the saints shall return with Jesus Christ to the world and live physically in the world for a period one thousand years, which is the millennium reign of Christ when Satan will be bound

February Thursday 6th TOPIC: THE POWER OF EXEMPLARY LIFE WILL TAKE YOU TO HEAVEN TEXT: Job 29:11-17 KEY VERSE: 1 Thessalonians 2:10, Ye are witnesses, and God also, how holily and justly and unblameably we behaved ourselves among you that believe. I am telling you of that which will take you to heaven, not that which destroys or condemns. I am encouraging you in what will take you to heaven. Get a godly Christian husband, he will become a message to you his wife. He will become a message other wives preach to their husbands as a role model. Get a godly Christian wife, who is humble, holy, and submissive to her husband, she will become a message to her husband. Other husbands will preach her to their wives. That is the power of an exemplary life! Get an industrious, obedient and submissive child, he or she becomes a message to the parents. Other parents will preach him to their own children and say “Can’t you see the child in that hou
For taking your time to study remain blessed. February Wednesday 5th TOPIC: PREACH SOUND DOCTRINE TEXT: Titus 2:1-10 KEY VERSE: Proverbs 23:23 Buy the truth, and sell it not; also wisdom, and instruction, and understanding. Sound doctrine is the cornerstone of Christian living. Unfortunately, there are many Churches that practice “choose and pick” in administering the word of God. It is like when you visit the supermarket and pick products of your choice, take them to the cashier, pay for them and thereafter take them home to use. They forget that God does not run a supermarket. God’s commandment is that ALL his laws must be obeyed, not selective obedience. Mathew 28:20 “Teaching them to observe ALL THINGS whatsoever I have commanded you.” Jesus told the Laodicean Church, “Buy from me gold tried in the fire so that you can be rich.” In this scripture, Jesus is not expressing the riches of the world. The riches of the world are material, but that which Jesus is talking about here

February Tuesday 4th TOPIC: YOUR GODLY LIFE WILL LEAD MANY TO RIGHTEOUSNESS TEXT: Matthew 5:14-16 KEY VERSE: 1Timothy 4:12 Let no man despise thy youth; but be thou an example of the believers, in word, in conversation, in charity, in spirit, in faith, in purity. You may just have begun your Christian life or you are practically a young man in the midst of much older people. What God wants you to know is that you can still be an example to other believers in spite of your youthfulness.  Age is not a hindrance to godly living. As a youth, you can avoid talking carelessly or creating rancour in the environment. People will notice your maturity and want to emulate you. This reminds me of a story. There was a woman that always cut off this protruded part of the chicken and throws it away. One day, a lady who had been observing this asked to know why. By her own judgment, that part being cut off was a good part and very delicious to eat.

February Monday 3rd TOPIC: REASONS FOR RESTITUTION 1 – IT IS A COMMANDMENT TEXT: Job 42:7-8 KEY VERSE: Genesis 20:7 Now therefore restore the man his wife; for he is a prophet, and he shall pray for thee, and thou shalt live: and if thou restore her not, know thou that thou shalt surely die, thou, and all that are thine. Restitution is an important aspect of the life of a Christian who is saved, who is led to the Lord in true repentance and conversion. A Christian who is saved still needs to examine himself for the journey to heaven. The number one reason why restitution is necessary is because God said so. In Genesis 20:7 God said, “Now therefore restore the man his wife; for he is a prophet, and he shall pray for thee, and thou shalt live: and if thou restore her not, know thou that thou shalt surely die, thou, and all that are thine.” This is a commandment which the Lord gave to Abimelech and to everybody who has done wrong.

For taking your time to study remain blessed. February Sunday 2nd TOPIC: THE CHRACTER OF A HOLY CHRISTIAN TEXT: Ephesians 4:17-29 KEY VERSE: Ephesians 4:24 And that ye put on the new man, which after God is created in righteousness and true holiness. Every creature of God has its own peculiar character and nature, whether plants or animals. It is in the nature of fish to swim in the water and the dog to bark. The natural or un-regenerated man takes after Satan in character of lying, stealing, fornicating and committing all kinds of atrocities. Contrarily, a child of God acquires the genetic traits of God and exhibits his holy character in daily living. Some of the character traits we expect to see in the life of a true Christian include: 1. Passionate love for God and fellow men. 1John 4:7-8 Beloved, let us love one another: for love is of God; and every one that loveth is born of God, and knoweth God. He that loveth not knoweth not God; for God is love. If you love you will n
