  REMAIN BLESSED AS YOU TAKE YOUR TIME TO STUDY THE WORD OF GOD AMEN   February 1st, Tuesday COMPONENTS OF THE DEVOTIONAL LIFE TEXT: MATTHEW 4:1-4                                                                       Key verse: 2 Timothy 2:15- Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth. You must devote and consecrate all to Jesus. This means that you should come holistically to the Bible. God requires you to do all: When you do this... then shall thou make thy way prosperous. The level you want your Christian life to be is in your hands. The level of your progress is in your hand. When you fast and you do not pray, it will not work because you have done one and neglected the other. Matthew 4:1-4 4 Then was Jesus led up of the Spirit into the wilderness to be tempted of the devil. 2 And when he had fasted forty days and forty nights, he was afterwards a hundred. 3 And when the tempter came to him, h

KEY VERSE: Isaiah. 2:2. “And it shall come to pass in the last days, that the mountain of the LORD’s house shall be established in the top of the mountains, and shall be exalted above the hills and all nations shall flow unto it.” Holiness Revival Movement Worldwide (HOREMOW) is the final ark that Jesus Christ is building in these last days to rescue souls all over the world. The Lord Jesus Christ has spoken many times through various prophecies and revelations to people, on this and His appointment of Pastor Paul Rika as the International Director.  God has chosen Pastor Paul Rika to bring people to the knowledge of truth, holiness and righteousness in the gospel of Christ and to prepare the church for the rapture. Most people consider holiness in this life to be a far-fetched notion, yet it is scripturally and divinely ordained

A bishop must be blameless. The lack of jobs has increased pastors and ministers in churches today. Everybody now goes into ministry to make ends meet. It has become a business venture for many that are not called. • Husband of one wife: Check the history of your workers and ministers as to their marital status. When the blind leads the blind, you expect an accident for both. Letters in the early churches were written to authenticate pastors before they minister. Check the preachers y

REMAIN BLESSED AS YOU TAKE YOUR TIME TO STUDY THE WORD OF GOD AMEN. 26TH WEDNESDAY JANUARY HOLINESS, RIGHTEOUSNESS AND TRUTH: THE STANDARD FOR HEAVEN  TEXT: ISAIAH 33:15-17  Key Verse: Psalms 71:19-Thy righteousness also, O God, is very high… Right there in Heaven, Jesus commissioned me into the world. He said, "Tell those ministers to repent and return to Me. If they refuse to repent, I will devour them at once. Holiness, Righteousness and Truth are the only things that will bring man to My righteous kingdom. Go and warn man. I am sending you to the ends of the earth to declare to man My standard for Heaven: Holiness, Righteousness and Truth. Tell the man I still love him.”  Jesus said, "Go and tell man righteousness, truth and holiness of life are the things that will qualify the believer for entrance into Heaven. Without holiness, no man shall see the Lord. As you go, lift the standard of Holiness in your personal life for people to see. Make it clear for the people. Let t

REMAIN BLESSED AS YOU TAKE YOUR TIME TO STUDY THE WORD OF GOD AMEN. 25TH TUESDAY JANUARY THE JUST SHALL LIVE BY FAITH (PART 2)            TEXT: ROMANS 1:16-17 Key verse: Habakkuk 2:4 Behold, his soul which is lifted is not upright in him:  but the just shall live by his faith. The faith of the just is based on the promises of God. God can look at a contrary situation of your life and throws a promise to you that if you are not a person of faith, you might miss the promise as clearly seen in Abraham’s case. He just believes in the testimonies of the scripture and that as it happened to those in the scripture, it will likewise happen to him. They just believe in the prophetic word of God. I have heard many testimonies of God’s promises.  I went out one day and noticed a location Pastor and some brethren carrying an insane woman towards my house. When I approached them, they informed me of what was going on. I quickly informed them to carry the woman to the fellowship venue. We took time

REMAIN BLESSED AS YOU TAKE YOUR TIME TO STUDY THE WORD OF GOD AMEN. 24TH MONDAY JANUARY TEXT: MARK 6: 14-28  Key Verse: Mark 14: 22-And when the daughter of the said Herodias came in, and danced, and pleased Herod and them that sat with him, the king said unto the damsel, Ask of me whatsoever thou wilt, and I will give it thee. Dancers always make effort to improve on their performance to show expertise and excellence. We see in this account the inspiration and power of dancing. Herod and the others who watched her were pleased, inspired, fascinated, absorbed and captured by her performance. Her dance aroused their emotions and Herod was moved to utter a promise which he would not have made in his sound mind that led to t evil action. John the Baptist was beheaded and his head was given to her to reward her dance! Ungodly dancing is not practised only in social parties but presently in the church. Her dance is not for God and His worship; for she knows not the Lord. Her dance in the ch

REMAIN BLESSED AS YOU TAKE YOUR TIME TO STUDY THE WORD OF GOD AMEN. TUESDAY 18th JANUARY. WITHOUT HOLINESS, WE ARE LABOURING IN VAIN  TEXT: LUKE 1:74-75  Key Verse: Philippians 2:16-Holding forth the word of life; that I may rejoice in the day of Christ, that I have not run in vain, neither laboured in vain.  We are in danger of labouring in vain if we are not able to bring people to perfection. If we cannot bring you to this state of holiness, then our labour over you and preaching is in vain. If we helped you to be born again, but we could not make you holy, then our labour is in vain because you cannot go to heaven; for without holiness, no man shall enter heaven. Hebrews 12:14.  Although you can be appointed to be a leader, your position cannot give you Heaven. No! You make heaven by your holiness. You can be given a gift, or even a promotion but not heaven. When true preachers finish their course and wear the crown and look for those they have laboured on in heaven, but they do no

REMAIN BLESSED AS YOU TAKE YOUR TIME TO STUDY THE WORD OF GOD AMEN. 19TH WEDNESDAY JANUARY APPLY GRACE AND TRUTH IN YOUR CHRISTIAN LIFE  TEXT: PHILIPPIANS 2:12-13  Key Verse: Hebrews 4:16-Let us, therefore, come boldly unto the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy, and find grace to help in time of need. Grace is the power of God that enables a believer to practice all the commandments of God. Truth is practical obedience. Verse 13 talks about the grace of God. The Lord is working in you; He is connecting many things in you, giving you the willingness, drawing you to programs, bringing forth preachers of truth and holiness on your way, causing you to understand and enlightening your mind with His word. That is the work of grace. What is expected of you is to work out your salvation. Apply that truth along with grace.  Philippians 2:12-13 12 Wherefore, my beloved, as ye have always obeyed, not as in my presence only, but now much more in my absence, work out your n with fear and tr

REMAIN BLESSED AS YOU TAKE YOUR TIME TO STUDY THE WORD OF GOD AMEN. 22ND SATURDAY JANUARY THE PRINCIPLES OF FINISHING THE RACE  TEXT: ISAIAH 53: 1-7 Key verse: Isaiah 53:4 But he was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our iniquities: the chastisement of our peace was upon him; and with his stripes, we are healed. We shall consider three (3) principles in this lesson: 1. Suffering: Jesus was addressed as a Man of sorrows. His ability to suffer showed His credibility because His suffering was required for human salvation. God has only one Son who had not sinned, but He has no son who has not suffered. Suffering builds energy into you and removes pride from you. He led you through this path to humble you. Why are men running from suffering and the devil? Peter was avoiding crucifixion but as he was running away he met the Lord coming in the opposite direction. When he asked, the Lord told him He was going for a second crucifixion since he was escaping from it. He

REMAIN BLESSED AS YOU TAKE YOUR TIME TO STUDY THE WORD OF GOD AMEN.  DATE: SUNDAY 16TH JANUARY TOPIC: GOD CAN DO ANYTHING FOR YOU, ONLY HAVE FAITH. TEXT: JEREMIAH 32: 6-9, 16-17  Key Verse: Matthew 19: 26-But Jesus beheld them, and said unto them…with God all things are possible.  The One who made heaven and earth say, is there anything too difficult for Him? Has He not power to do what seems right to Him? Come to this level of faith that nothing is too hard for God and tell Him so.  When you come to plead with God for your problems, tell Him you know Him well enough to be convinced that nothing is too difficult for Him. That is why you believe He will solve that problem for you. By yourself, you cannot do it. Even if you engage the services of professional men or women, it still cannot be done. If you continue to look up to man, that matter may remain unresolved. It is beyond any power on the earth. But with God, all things are possible. Please, prepare yourself to walk with this God

REMAIN BLESSED AS YOU TAKE YOUR TIME TO STUDY THE WORD OF GOD AMEN.  DATE: THURSDAY 13TH JANUARY TOPIC: YOUR FAITH SHOULD BE IN JESUS AND NOT ON PHYSICAL SUBSTANCES TEXT: GALATIANS 1:6-9  Key Verse: Mark 16:17- And these signs shall follow them that believe; in My name shall they cast out devils; they shall speak with new tongues;  Miracles through anointed handkerchiefs, aprons, and other physical objects practiced by many churches and ministers today have adverse effect on the Gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ.  Faith is a key factor in the Christian religion. This practice works against true faith in God in the heart of men and shifts the faith of worshipers and seekers of divine blessings from God to these physical substances.  Men see that it is now the physical objects; like the handkerchiefs, aprons,  water, beads, stickers, anointing oil and mantles, that matter; and not the word of God, the name of Jesus or the blood of Jesus anymore.  To them, the anointed handkerchiefs, aprons

REMAIN BLESSED AS YOU TAKE YOUR TIME TO STUDY THE WORD OF GOD AMEN.  DATE: FRIDAY 14TH JANUARY TOPIC: IMPLICATION OF UNFORGIVENNESS AND UNFORGIVEN SIN TEXT: MATTHEW 18: 21 – 35 Key verse: Matthew 18:33 Shouldest not thou also have had compassion on thy fellow servant, even as I pitiedr refuses to offer forgiveness:He is displaying ingratitude for the forgiveness he received from God. He is putting offenders in prison.  Forgiveness gives liberty, freedom, peace and rest. Ensure you forgive to remove that yoke from others. Even banks cancel bad debts and lift burdens on their customers; Ensure you work for the forgiveness of the offended.  If you refuse to forgive, it means you are keeping that man in prison; If you do not forgive, you will receive condemnation; In this text, the man grasped his fellow servant on the throat. The people around gave an evil report to him.  Some people are too proud to say sorry to their wives or husbands [Spouse]. Don't give indirect forgiveness; speak

REMAIN BLESSED AS YOU TAKE YOUR TIME TO STUDY THE WORD OF GOD AMEN.  DATE:  12TH WEDNESDAY JANAURY TOPIC: SOME PASTORS HAVE MASTERED THE ART OF DECEPTION TEXT: ACTS 8:9-11, JOB 15:5-6 Key Verse: Job 15:35 They conceive mischief, and bring forth vanity, and their belly prepareth deceit. A pastor was preparing a sermon for his people on a fellowship day. What does he have to tell the people? He gathered lies together and started preaching.  As he preached he was laughing within himself because there were some apparent lies that he spoke. He felt that if these people were reasonable, they should not believe such stories but he has cast a spell on them to make them believe everything he says.  So, he stands on the stage but his belly is filled with deceit, and when he speaks, his words come out with inspiration but they are all deceit.  That is how some of these ministers live in total deception. All their work or sermon in the church and ministry is just to deceive people. All their promi

REMAIN BLESSED AS YOU TAKE YOUR TIME TO STUDY THE WORD OF GOD AMEN.  DATE: TUESDAY 11TH JANUARY TOPIC: PRICILIA’S SACRIFICE TO THE GOSPEL WORK  TEXT: ROMANS 16:3-4 KEY VERSE: 1 Corinthians 16:19 “The church of Asia salute you. Aquila and Priscilla salute you much in the Lord, with the church that is in their house.” Priscilla listened to Paul and did what he instructed her to do. She sacrificed her house for the gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ to reach out to others.  There is a blessed reward when you obey and humble yourself to true and genuine ministers of the gospel. Priscilla understood this secret of the gospel without pretending as the Pharisees do.  The Pharisees built the graves of the prophets and painted them white as a way to show respect but inwardly they practised deceit. They claim that if it were their days they would not have killed the prophets of Israel as did their fathers, but would have treated them nicely and with respect.  By character, Pharisees are usually sel

REMAIN BLESSED AS YOU TAKE YOUR TIME TO STUDY THE WORD OF GOD AMEN.  DATE: MONDAY 10TH JANUARY  TOPIC: APPLY GRACE AND TRUTH IN YOUR CHRISTIAN LIFE TEXT: JOHN 1:14, 17  Key Verse: John 8:32- And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.  All that went to heaven went by mercy and truth. Surely, goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life. Every time I find difficulty or temptation on my way, I sigh up and righteousness will descend from heaven upon my life.  Grace and truth move together. Grace is the power of God that enables a believer to practice all the commandments of God. ALL, not some, not few and not many but ALL!!!   Why are you saying you are trying? Keep trying harder child of God. Why are you managing when there is abundant grace? Where sin abounds, grace does much more abound.  There is more grace to make you overcome those multiplied sins in your life. The reason is that you have never asked or come to God to make a request.  You have never

REMAIN BLESSED AS YOU TAKE YOUR TIME TO STUDY THE WORD OF GOD AMEN. DATE: SUNDAY 9TH JANUARY TOPIC: THE JUST SHALL LIVE BY FAITH (PART 1) TEXT: ROMANS 1:16-17 Key verse: Habakkuk 2:4 Behold, his soul which is lifted is not upright in him:  but the just shall live by his faith. When someone repents from sin and receives Jesus, he becomes a new creature as the scripture says in 2 Corinthians 5:17: “Therefore if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things become new." This person’s new walk is characterized by all newness. Who is a just person? A just person is the one who walks with God, doing all the will of God. The just person is the one who yields the whole of his heart to God. A just person is a believer. The key verse emphasizes individual faith, although there are times when the church can have faith for God to intervene in your situation but ultimately, the scriptures encourage individual believers to have faith in themse

REMAIN BLESSED AS YOU TAKE YOUR TIME TO STUDY THE WORD OF GOD.  DATE: Saturday 8th January  TOPIC: THE DRESSING AND MODESTY OF A CHRISTIAN TEXT: ISAIAH 3:16-24 Key Verse: 1 Timothy 2:9 -In like manner also, that women adorn themselves in modest apparel, with shamefacedness and sobriety; not with broided hair, or gold, or pearls, or costly array; Short-Sleeve Cloth:  Don't show your armpit to anybody. Nobody is interested. Shorthand clothes should be amended to reach elbows. Short Gown: It is not for a godly woman. Dress well and forget about using a handkerchief to cover up some parts of the body. Deep Cut Dress:  If you display your breast through ungodly dress, you will perish with them. If you follow the world to rule you, beware there is a spirit leading them to hell. If such a sister is found in any fellowship or church, kindly ask her to go and change to something better. Don't keep quiet anymore; Numbers.25:6-16.  Don't seat anyhow in the church nor dress, it may dri

  REMAIN BLESSED AS YOU TAKE YOUR TIME TO STUDY THE WORD OF GOD AMEN. DATE: FRIDAY 7 JANUARY TOPIC: RESTITUTION FOR THEFT/STOLEN ITEMS, TREACHERY AND EMBEZZLEMENT (PART 2) TEXT: EZEKIEL 33:14-16 Key Verse: Ezekiel 33:15-If the wicked restore the pledge, give again that he had robbed, walk in the statutes of life, without committing iniquity; he shall surely live, he shall not die. The Bible says that if God says to a man that he is going to die because of a sin he has committed or because of that which was stolen by him and that if he lives onward in righteousness, he shall live and not die. God is detailed about the steps man must take to reverse the death sentence. As Zacchaeus did, theft of money or material things need confession, repentance and restitution to individuals, institutions or the Government. Treachery, cheating, “419”, embezzlement, requires confession, repentance and restitution. The person cheated may choose to receive his money or material possession back, or may d

REMAIN BLESSED AS YOU TAKE YOUR TIME TO STUDY THE WORD OF GOD AMEN.  DATE: WEDNESDAY, 5th JANUARY TOPIC: NON-OBSERVANCE OF HOLY COMMUNION IS DISOBEDIENCE TO THE WORD OF GOD (PART 1) TEXT: 1 CORINTHIANS 11:23-33  Key Verse: Luke 22:19-And he took bread, and gave thanks, and brake it, and gave unto them, saying, This is my body which is given for you: this do in remembrance of me. The Lord Jesus said, "Does Pastor Ohanebo of Watchman know that he is causing My children under him to sin by denying them the privilege of obedience to Me through partaking in the Lord’s Supper?" I instituted this rite to achieve many things in My Church:  (1) To always bring them before God in soberness to strengthen their faith in Me their Lord and Saviour,  (2) To gather them together in brotherly love to see themselves as one,  (3) To bestow My grace and blessings upon them as they serve and worship Me,  (4) To make them lift up My name before the unbelieving world as the living Lord and Saviour

REMAIN BLESSED AS YOU TAKE YOUR TIME TO STUDY THE WORD OF GOD. ONLY TRUST IN ME TO LEAD YOU IN THE RIGHT WAY ALWAYS TUESDAY, 4th JANUARY TEXT: MATTHEW 7:13-14  Key verse: Matthew 7:14- Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it.  My child, there will be times when you will not see the immediate way ahead. You may be filled with panic, wanting so much to avoid what could be a disastrous step. Remember that you do not always need to see the road ahead. It is sufficient, for the moment, to see Me! When the time is right for a choice to be made, you will know and I will assist you through it. Until that time, be very sure that merely keeping very close to Me is a guarantee that you are moving in the right direction, even though questions and doubts are raging in your mind. When you cannot see the next step, there is a good reason for My withholding that awareness. It becomes a time of trust…Trust, very often,  I will simply cau

REMAIN BLESSED AS YOU TAKE YOUR TIME TO STUDY THE WORD OF GOD. MONDAY, 3rd JANUARY THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN FIRST AND SECOND RESURRECTION TEXT: JOHN 5:25-29   Key Verse: John 5:29-And shall come forth; they that have done good, unto the resurrection of life; and they that have done evil, unto the resurrection of damnation. Jesus Christ spoke about resurrection in our key verse and that all that are in the grave shall arise. The time is coming that all that are in the grave shall indeed arise. He puts resurrection in the first and second stages. You can see that the first resurrection is one of those that have done well. “Good” here is not referring to any human being that is doing good in this life. It is only those who are saved by the blood of Jesus Christ, who have the righteousness of God in Christ. These shall rise first in the resurrection of life eternal. They that have done well are they that are in Christ, who are washed by the blood of Christ and are led by the Holy Ghost to do

REMAIN BLESSED AS YOU TAKE YOUR TIME TO STUDY THE WORD OF GOD. THE DRESSING AND MODESTY OF A CHRISTIAN TEXT: PROVERBS 7:10   SUNDAY 2nd, JANUARY Key Verse:  Matthew 5:28- But I say unto you, That whosoever looketh on a woman to lust after her hath committed adultery with her already in his heart.                                                                 KEEP THESE IN YOUR HEART                                                   The Use of Trousers: Deuteronomy 22:5. It troubles men to see a woman bring her buttocks out. Ask men, they will tell you. God said a woman should not put on what pertains to a man neither should the man put on that which belongs to the woman.  Slit Skirt: opening of back and front slits in your skirt, as you walk is wrong, these are openings on your skirt exposing you when you bend down, men gaze and lust. You are causing them to sin. You are also guilty.  Mini Skirt: Should not just stop at the knees and even a little below the knees is not encouraging as
