TOPIC: YOU CANNOT SERVE GOD IN SIN AND EXCEL
TEXT: Luke 13:25-27
KEY VERSE: Luke 13:27 But he shall say, I tell you, I know you not whence ye are; depart from me, all ye workers of iniquity.

It is a contradiction to expect to serve a holy God in sin. Unfortunately, this is what obtains in most churches today. The Lord told the Laodicean Church, “buy from Me white raiment that you may be clothed so that your nakedness should not appear.” What is that white dress without defilement? It is righteousness. The Lord is saying you must be clothed in righteousness. When the prodigal son came back home, what did the father say? He said, “remove the rag that is on him and cloth him.” Remove that rag of filth and dirt on him and cloth him with righteousness. The Laodiceans were doing their Christianity without righteousness. Drunkards were pastors among them; witches and wizards were pastors among them; elders took alcohol early in the morning to stand on the pulpit. Many terrible things were going on there and there was no righteousness for they were not born again. God was telling them “You cannot serve Me in filth and uncleanliness. Come to Me and receive genuine salvation, that your nakedness may be covered and your shame taken away.”

Why shame? When pastors and General Overseers commit immorality and sacrifice human beings for power, is it not a shameful thing? When people get to hear about this thing, is it not a shameful thing even to the pastors themselves? The Lord also counselled, “and anoint thine eyes with eyesalve that thou mayest see.” The Lord is urging them to get real scriptural insight; to get spiritual insight; to get the revelation of the word so that they can see because the Bible says the carnal mind cannot discern the things of God. He cannot because they are spiritually discerned. If a carnal man graduates in the Theological College, what will he be teaching? Can he preach message of salvation? Can he give what he doesn’t have? Since he is not born again, he cannot understand the spiritual meaning of the word. Brother, sister, you must take your righteousness beyond the level of just going to church and being counted among “he was also there.” Christianity is more than going to church. Rewardable service is serving in righteousness, not in sin. You cannot serve a holy God in sin like Judas and expect to be rewarded. Let your righteousness surpass that of the Pharisees.

Thought for the day: God desires clean vessels in His service.
Song for the day: Purify my heart, let it be as gold, precious silver, purify my heart……
Bible reading for the day:
Deuteronomy 17-19; Mark 14:1-25

For taking your time to study remain blessed. UNDERSTANDING ETERNITY WEDNESDAY MAY 10 TEXT: Psalm 90: 1 - 2 Key Verse: “The Lord is King forever and ever: the heathen are perished out of his land Psalm 10:16 People that understand eternity are always careful. Eternity means forever and ever, it means ever-lasting, ever-living, never dying. Trillion upon trillion years, eternity is still on, in fact it is life without end. There are two extreme ends of eternity: The kingdom of God called third heaven where God the Father, God the son, God the Holy Ghost, twenty-four elders, saints of God that make heaven, holy angels of God, and entire host of heaven dwell now presently; Hell-fire, where Satan, demons, and sinners that have died in their sins are presently kept. God is the One that introduced eternity. He lives forever. It is not a choice, the One who created us is forever, hence you will live forever, but what matters is where you will live eternally. Remove God from the way, then t...

TOPIC: HOW TO BE SANCTIFIED (PART 2)

HOLINESS REVIVAL MOVEMENT WORLDWIDE HOREMOW DAILY DEVOTIONAL BY PASTOR PAUL RIKA INTERNATIONAL DIRECTOR. DATE: FRIDAY JULY 17, 2026. TOPIC: HOW TO BE SANCTIFIED (PART 2) TEXT: HEBREWS 11:1-6 1. Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen. 2. For by it the elders obtained a good report. 3. Through faith we understand that the worlds were framed by the word of God, so that things which are seen were not made of things which do appear. 4. By faith Abel offered unto God a more excellent sacrifice than Cain, by which he obtained witness that he was righteous, God testifying of his gifts: and by it he being dead yet speaketh. 5. By faith Enoch was translated that he should not see death; and was not found, because God had translated him: for before his translation he had this testimony, that he pleased God. 6. But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligent...
