BEWARE OF FALSE BRETHREN AND THE MIXED MULTITUDE

 God bless you for taking your time to study. BEWARE OF FALSE BRETHREN AND THE MIXED MULTITUDE TEXT: NUMBERS 11: 4-6  SATURDAY OCTOBER 1st Key verse: Numbers 11: 4 And the mixed multitude that was among them fell a lusting: and the children of Israel also wept again, and said, who shall give us flesh to eat? The people of Israel had seen sufficiently the miracles of God in Egypt. Before they left Egypt, they were convinced that God was the one who actually sent Moses to Pharaoh and the one who commissioned Moses to bring them out of their bandage (Exodus 3: 7-8). Likewise God has chosen Pastor Paul Rika to bring back His lost glory and holiness in our churches. God is confirming His move with signs and wonders, coupled with testimonies of people that have become holy through his messages and made heaven. Unfortunately, the mixed multitudes (false brethren) in our midst after seeing the great move of God in HOREMOW still rise up to fight and speak against the same holiness they once acc

THE DAYS OF THE COMING OF THE LORD

God bless you for taking your time to study. THE DAYS OF THE COMING OF THE LORD TEXT: MATTHEW 24: 37-39 THURSDAY SEPTEMBER 29th Key verse: Luke 21:34 And take heed to yourselves, lest at any time your hearts be overcharged with surfeiting, and drunkenness, and cares of this life, and so that day come upon you unawares. We are right in the days of the Lord’s second coming. The second coming begins with the rapture (the sudden catching up in the clouds of the believers who are alive in Christ as well as those who are dead in Christ to meet the Lord in the air). Seven years after the rapture, the Lord will return with the saints to the earth to prepare for His millennial reign. My heart pain, as we see from our text, is the lifestyle of people in these days of the coming of the Lord. Jesus confirmed the events that occurred in the days of Noah. Noah lived at a time that iniquity was at its peak but he lived a righteous life. That was the time righteousness and holiness all over the world

MEN PLEASERS CANNOT PLEASE GOD

 God bless you for taking your time to study  TOPIC: MEN PLEASERS CANNOT PLEASE GOD TEXT: MATTHEW 7:20-23    TUESDAY SEPTEMBER 27th KEY VERSE: Galatians 1:10 For do I now persuade men, or God? or do I seek to please men? for if I yet pleased men, I should not be the servant of Christ. Below are excerpts from the book titled Jesus' Revelation On Top Church Founders of Our Time based on 2021 revelation given to Sister Linda Paul Rika: So many people gathered by the conference hall from various churches to hear what the Lord would say to their ministers. So, some asked the angel, “Is Chris Oyakhilome of Christ Embassy here in the meeting?” The angel replied, “These people or ministers you call their names are only known to you. They are not known to us angels because they are men-pleasers and not God-pleasers. Those that please God; He often sends us to them, so we know them. The false ministers know themselves, which is why they did not show up here. They are deceivers and mi

POWER FOR GREATER SERVICE

God bless you for taking your time to study. TOPIC: POWER FOR GREATER SERVICE TEXT: ACTS 2:1- 4, 40, 41 SUNDAY SEPTEMBER 25th Key verse: Acts 1:8 - But 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 Judaea, and in Samaria, and unto the uttermost part of the earth.  One who is born again is promised the baptism with the Holy Spirit. Baptism of the Holy Spirit is also called the Promise of the Father or Power from on high. It is the infilling of a believer with the power of the Holy Spirit. This is required for effective and fruitful Christian service. It is a gift from God to His children who earnestly hunger, thirst and ask for it through prayer. The evidence of baptism with the Holy Spirit is speaking in tongues by the enabling of the Holy Spirit. “And they were all filled with the Holy Ghost, and began to speak with other tongues, as the Spirit gave them utterance” Acts 2:4  Every believer has th

I LEARNT OF SANCTIFICATION AND RESTITUTION IN HOREMOW

God bless you for taking your time to study. I LEARNT OF SANCTIFICATION AND RESTITUTION IN HOREMOW TEXT: 1 TIMOTHY 4: 9-11 FRIDAY SEPTEMBER 23rd KEY VERSE: 1 Timothy 1:19 Holding faith, and a good conscience; which some having put away concerning faith have made shipwreck: A testimony from Brother Mark Agoh of Kuje chapter: I joined Holiness Revival Movement Worldwide in October 2017. Until the Lord showed me mercy and brought me to HOREMOW, I did not understand the doctrines of sanctification and restitution because they were not taught in our church. In fact, a senior military officer whom I invited to a HOREMOW program confessed that he has never heard such undiluted teachings on sanctification and restitution although he was a respected leader in the denominational church we both attended.  Through the undiluted teachings of Pastor Paul Rika and several testimonies of brethren as well as clarifications during questions and answer sessions, I realized that to make heaven I needed

MARITAL INSTRUCTIONS FOR THE UNMARRIED

God bless you for taking your time to study. MARITAL INSTRUCTIONS FOR THE UNMARRIED TEXT: JOHN 17: 14-15 THURSDAY SEPTEMBER 22nd Key verse: Jeremiah 29: 11 For I know the thoughts I think toward you, saith the LORD, thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you an expected end. Just as Jesus prayed His Father to protect His disciples in this ravenous world, He has also prayed for you that God will not allow the devil to give his daughter to you to marry. He has prayed that God should keep your marital life clean as you listen to His word. This can be done through the word spoken unto you. Your ways are made clean when you take the word of God taught to you. Your ways will be clean and your marriage also will be according to the will of God.   If you do not marry in the will of God, you are already inhibiting your future. If you are not careful the spouse you marry might become a hindrance to your going to heaven. So let your journey into marriage be according to the will of God. Do

ONLY THOSE THAT ARE HOLY WILL ENTER MY KINGDOM

God bless you for taking your time to study. MONDAY  SEPTEMBER 19th TOPIC: ONLY THOSE THAT ARE HOLY WILL ENTER MY KINGDOM TEXT: REVELATION 2: 25-29 KEY VERSE: Revelation 2:25 But that which ye have already hold fast till I come. Completion of revelations of Sister Josephine Ihejirika of USA chapter: “My Kingdom is holy and only those that are holy will enter it. My Kingdom is of high worth and there is nothing that will come in to defile My Kingdom. For this reason it is now that one is alive that one will give Me his heart so that I will work on it. The person will cleanse his/her self with My blood daily to be perfect. Then as you daily wash yourself with My blood you should be watchful and guard your heart so that you don’t fall into a snare or sin.” “My peace and grace I leave with you. It shall be well with your soul. To eternity I will be with you just as I have told you. Speak to both great and small. Tell them what I said whether they believe or not. Don’t speak of your own. Ev

LABOUR FERVENTLY IN PRAYER

God bless you for taking your time to study. SUNDAY SEPTEMBER 18th LABOUR FERVENTLY IN PRAYER TEXT: James 5: 15-18 Key verse: Colossians 4:12, “Epaphras, who is one of you, a servant of Christ, saluteth you, always labouring fervently for you in prayers, that ye may stand perfect and complete in all the will of God.” To be fervent means that we should be serious and earnest in prayer; not just repeating some memorized prayer. It is to have great intensity of spirit, feeling and enthusiasm about what we are talking to God about. When you see the word labouring, you think of work, someone putting forth tremendous effort. Epaphras is labouring fervently for you in prayers. He is working hard to make sure that the brethren stand perfect and complete in all the will of God. He is fervently taking on praying for the church so that this body of believers becomes a church without spot or wrinkle and filled with all the will of God, to perform the will of God. Epaphras was not just labouring bu

EXAMINING THE TITLE OF JESUS AS THE SON OF GOD

God bless you for taking your time to study SATURDAY SEPTEMBER 17TH EXAMINING THE TITLE OF JESUS AS THE SON OF GOD. TEXT: JOHN 10:30-32   Key verse: 1 John 5:7 “For there are three that bear record in heaven, the Father, the Word, and the Holy Ghost: and these three are one.” Many stumble at what the Son of God means. They say, “If Jesus is the Son of God that means God has a wife.” That is human reasoning. Let us look at it this way: God made man in His image and man is three persons in one - the spirit, soul, and body. A man may be lying down in one place while his spirit goes elsewhere. Sometimes, the spirit and the soul are joined together although they can be separated. Man is three persons as seen in God. In Genesis 1:27, God said let us make man to resemble us: We have one God but He exists in three separate Persons; God the Father, Jesus Christ the Son and the Holy Spirit, just as man is spirit, soul, and body, but one man. When Jesus came down to the world as a man, the Father

A NEWCOMER’S TESTIMONY OF A DIVINE ENCOUNTER (2)

 God bless you for taking your time to study. A NEWCOMER’S TESTIMONY OF A DIVINE ENCOUNTER (2) TEXT: PSALM 104: 1-4    FRIDAY SEPTEMBER 16th KEY VERSE: Psalm 104:4 Who maketh his angel's spirits; his ministers a flaming fire: When we came into the hall, songs were going on, and everywhere was very glorious. The melody and sound of the voices of the people were very glorious as if it is not all these songs people sing in other churches. The glory of God was moving everywhere as if the hall was turning up and down. As the song was going on, participants were transformed; someone wearing colored clothes would change to pure white, shining clothes. Joy filled everyone. I was also transformed. We were full of joy as if we were no longer on this earth.  When Pastor Paul Rika was preaching, the glory of God covered him such that you cannot see his face. As he was preaching, healing was going on; some people were operated upon, some people’s chains were removed from them, and many were del

A NEWCOMER’S TESTIMONY OF A DIVINE ENCOUNTER (1)

God bless you for taking your time to study. A NEWCOMER’S TESTIMONY OF A DIVINE ENCOUNTER (1) TEXT: PSALM 33: 1-8    THURSDAY SEPTEMBER 15th KEY VERSE: Psalm 32:8 I will instruct thee and teach thee in the way which thou shalt go: I will guide thee with mine eye. Presented here is the testimony of Evangelist Obiageli from Ekwulobia chapter, Anambra State: “Before coming to HOREMOW, a sister had told me about the Movement and was following me up. Later, she brought her pastor to me and both of them were on my neck. I kept on promising and failing them. One day the pastor invited me to Believers Unity Conference, organized by HOREMOW for the South East States in Onitsha. I promised to attend so that they would leave me alone. I had planned not to stay till the end but when I saw what was going on and heard the messages, I realized that I have found what I had been seeking for a long time. I made up my mind to stay till the end of the program. I responded to the altar call and also took p

WE ARE SAVED TO SERVE

God bless you for taking your time to study. TOPIC: WE ARE SAVED TO SERVE   WEDNESDAY SEPTEMBER 14th TEXT: EPHESIANS 6:10-18  Key verse: Exodus 23: 25:  And ye shall serve the LORD your God, and he shall bless thy bread, and thy water; and I will take sickness away from the midst of thee. We are saved to serve. As the angels serve God in heaven, even so, are we to serve Him here on earth? In the Lord’s Prayer, Jesus said, Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done in earth, as it is in heaven. Matthew 6:10. Every creature of God does His service which is acceptable unto God both now and in the future. There are various types of Christian service. There are degrees of grace for Christian service. You are to determine your effectiveness and progress in the Christian service. The choice concerning how much of your time you will give to God is yours. He will not give you; although there is so much to be done. If you use 24 hours to do the work of God, there will still be much to do. You are the on

BE NOT DECEIVED BY FALSE DOCTRINE TAUGHT IN CHURCHES

God bless you for taking your time to study. BE NOT DECEIVED BY FALSE DOCTRINE TAUGHT IN CHURCHES TEXT: ISAIAH 65: 2-5  TUESDAY SEPTEMBER 13th Key verse: Mathew 15; 14 Let them alone: they are blind leaders of the blind. And if the blind lead the blind, both shall fall into the ditch  As a member of a church, have you tried to know the condition of your church? Do they teach the truth there as the word of God demands? You know very well that the members are not living holy lives. Even your pastor does not practice holiness in his daily life. You still see those outside your church that is living a holy Christian life but refused to join them. Do you want to destroy your soul? You make your church a prison cell waiting for hellfire. Was it God's plan for you?  They assure you of heaven, blessings, and protection, but never warned you of sin. Is a Christian a sinner? What then are you saved from, if you remain a sinner? 1 John 3:6 Whosoever abideth in him sinneth not: whosoever sinne

CARE FOR YOUR BODY

God bless you for taking your time to study. TOPIC: CARE FOR YOUR BODY  MONDAY SEPTEMBER 12 TEXT: 3 JOHN 1:1-2 Key Verse: Ephesians 5: 29 For no man ever yet hated his flesh; but nourisheth and cherisheth it, even as the Lord the church, It is the will of God that your body is preserved. Unfortunately, many people die before their time because they never cared for their bodies. They never gave attention to their body. God wants your body to be preserved blameless and not inhibited by sickness or adverse conditions that could adversely affect your Christian life and service. Don't hate your body. Don't do any evil to that body. Nourish that body and feed it well. As much as God gives you grace, feed your body with good food and provide it with everything needed to make it healthy and sound to remove pain and sickness from it. Don't expose that body to danger or damage. Keep it well and healthy because God wants it to. Although the spirit is the one that gets born again, to r

HOLY GHOST BAPTISM

God bless you for taking your time to study. HOLY GHOST BAPTISM  SUNDAY SEPTEMBER 11th TEXT: ACTS 1:4 – 5 Key Verse: But ye shall receive power after that the Holy Ghost comes upon you and ye shall be witnesses unto me both in Jerusalem, and in all Judea, and Samaria and unto the uttermost part of the earth. Acts 1:8 Baptism of the Holy Ghost is the imparting of the power of the Holy Spirit in a baptismal measure upon a believer in Christ. The experience imparts on the believer power for effective Christian service. Speaking in tongues as the Spirit gives utterance is the initial outward sign accompanying the baptism in the Holy Spirit. Act 2:4 And they were all filled with the Holy Ghost and began to speak with other tongues as the Spirit gave them utterance. Act 10:44-46 While Peter yet spoke these words, the Holy Ghost fell on all them which heard the word. And they of the circumcision which believed were astonished as many as came with Peter because that on the Gentiles also was po

DIVINE FAVOUR LOCATED ESTHER

God bless you for taking your time to study. TOPIC: DIVINE FAVOUR LOCATED ESTHER TEXT: Esther 2: 1 -4, 8 -10 SATURDAY SEPTEMBER 10th Key verse: Esther  2: 17: And the king loved Esther above all the women, and she obtained grace and favor in his sight more than all the virgins; so that he set the royal crown upon her head, and made her queen instead of Vashti. Many easily get discouraged when they lose their loved ones like parents, mentors, siblings, friends, etc… especially at the infant stage and they feel like giving up life because to them there is no more hope. Esther’s case was not so; she remained obedient to her uncle, Mordecai, who adopted her as his daughter and kept to all his instructions. She remained a virgin even in the face of hardship that the uncle could have been facing as an ordinary gateman. How many of our parents today can beat their chests and say they have so trained their daughters to the point that they handed them to their husbands as virgins? Esther presen

THE WISE AND FOOLISH CHILDREN

God bless you for taking your time to study. THE WISE AND FOOLISH CHILDREN  FRIDAY SEPTEMBER 9th TEXT: PROVERBS 23:15-16 Key Verse: Proverbs 10:1 The proverbs of Solomon. A wise son maketh a glad father: but a foolish son is the heaviness of his mother. A wise son will make the father and mother glad and even his relatives and guardians. The neighbors will appreciate him and point out him as a good example to their Children. On the other hand, if the child is stubborn or foolish, he will bring pain and sorrow to his or her father and mother. Have you ever thought about this, that the scriptures always emphasize the sorrow of the wayward child on the mother and not the father? The reason is that the father will automatically turn his back on that child, denying him as his child or rather putting the waywardness of that child on the mother to bear the shame alone. Proverbs 23:13-14 13 Withhold not correction from the child: for if thou beatest him with the rod, he shall not die. 14 Thou

DETERMINE TO TURN MANY TO RIGHTEOUSNESS

God bless you for taking your time to study. TOPIC: DETERMINE TO TURN MANY TO RIGHTEOUSNESS TEXT: DANIEL 12:1-4  THURSDAY SEPTEMBER 8th Key verse: 1 Corinthians 9:16 For though I preach the gospel, I have nothing to glory of for necessity is laid upon me; yea, woe is unto me, if I preach not the gospel!  The greatest service a child of God can render unto God is to preach the gospel with passion. The reason God did not take you to heaven the moment you became born again is that He has assignments for you on the earth. The uniform and universal assignment for all children of God is to preach the gospel to sinners and disciple them to become saints as well as to the unrighteous Christians and turn them to righteousness. Why do you sit down unconcerned while souls are perishing? Jesus is the bright and morning Star. He came primarily to turn man from sin to righteousness and He succeeded remarkably. He has promised to give the morning star to as many as will do like Himself. Preaching the

JEWELRY IS USED TO ENHANCE SEDUCTION

God bless you for taking your time to study. TOPIC: JEWELRY IS USED TO ENHANCE SEDUCTION TEXT: HOSEA 2:5-13    TUESDAY  SEPTEMBER 6th KEY VERSE – JEREMIAH 4:30  “And when thou art spoiled, what wilt thou do? Thou clothest thyself with crimson, though thou deckest thee with ornaments of gold. Still, thou retest thy face with painting, in vain shalt thou make thyself fair, thy lovers will despise thee, they will seek thy life.” In the Bible days, jewelry was seen to promote charming beauty and it is the dressing of harlots. They used jewelry and makeup to make themselves beautiful and to sell themselves out in immorality to men. In our text today, it shows clearly that the woman referred to in this place played harlotry. The items she used to beautify herself for her immoral lovers included earrings and other items of jewelry. Israel was pictured here as a harlot. The key verse today pictures a harlot who made herself beautiful to her lovers. The things done to achieve her purpose were “

PURITY, A LIFE WITHOUT BLEMISH

God bless you for taking your time to study. TOPIC: PURITY, A LIFE WITHOUT BLEMISH.  TEXT: 1 THESSALONIANS 5:21 – 24  MONDAY SEPTEMBER 5th Key verse: 1 John 3:3 And every man that hath this hope in him purifieth himself, even as He is pure.  Purity means a state of being free from defilement. It is a life that pleases the Lord. Purity of heart enables one’s thoughts and desires to be pure according to God’s standards. Purity makes you careful, watching over yourself so that you will never allow sin in your life. Have you seen a pussy cat? When the pussy cat runs from here to there, it will stop and lick out the dust from its body. It checks its body to ensure no dirt is there. If you have a passion for purity you must check up on yourself now and then to ensure no blemish or sin is in you. Examine yourself daily.  Purity and your eyes - As you walk on the street and see the nakedness on the street; you shouldn’t give it a second look or thought. Your eyes should be regulated; be determ

IMPORTANCE OF WISDOM IN SOUL WINNING

God bless you for taking your time to study. TOPIC: IMPORTANCE OF WISDOM IN SOUL WINNING   TEXT: PROVERBS 4:5-9  SUNDAY SEPTEMBER 4th Key verse: Ecclesiastes 10:10 If the iron is blunt and he does not whet the edge, then must he put to more strength: but wisdom is profitable to direct. The Bible makes it known to us the place of wisdom in our Christian living. Wisdom is highly required to preach this gospel and win souls to the Lord Jesus Christ. If you are using a knife that is blunt to peel cassava, it will not be easy. You will put in a lot of effort, and a lot of energy to peel the cassava. You will suffer frustration because the knife is blunt. You have a blunt cutlass and you want to cut grasses or cut down a tree; what a great and fruitless energy you are going to apply. You will get discouraged. The reason why the churches of God are getting discouraged in evangelism at this time is that “the Iron is blunt.” Instead of burning energy, spending money on outreaches without fruits

FORGIVEN AND FREED BY THE SON OF GOD

God bless you for taking your time to study. TOPIC: FORGIVEN AND FREED BY THE SON OF GOD TEXT: JOHN 8: 7-11  SATURDAY SEPTEMBER 3rd KEY VERSE: John 8:36 If the Son, therefore, shall make you free, ye shall be free indeed Continuation of Brother Overcomer’s testimonies: The shop owner called his friend and when the friend heard my confession he advised him to take me to the police station. When we got there, they referred us to the Anti-robbery squad. A strange voice said, “See what you have done to yourself. These people will hang you.” I replied, 'They should hang me on earth and I escape hell fire.' They shouted at me to come forward. I carried my Bible and walked toward them. A calm voice spoke within me, “Fear not.” One policeman was interrogating me, another was writing, and another was videoing me with his phone while their leader observed me. After some time, their leader asked them to hold on and he ordered me to narrate my story afresh. I said, "Sir, some time ago

THE ILLUSTRATION OF THE RAPTURE FROM THE SCRIPTURES

God bless you for taking your time to study. THE ILLUSTRATION OF THE RAPTURE FROM THE SCRIPTURES: TEXT: 2 KINGS 2:9-12 SATURDAY AUGUST 27th Key Verse: Genesis 5:24. “And Enoch walked with God: and he was not; for God took him”. The Rapture was a mystery, unknown to the Old Testament saints and prophets. God illustrated it in two persons in the scripture; Enoch and Elijah, to assure us of its certainty. They did not taste death but were translated and caught up in the air. The rapture will occur unannounced and it is very imminent. Sinners are to repent and accept Christ while saints are to watch and pray to be ready. The translation of Enoch as seen in our key verse happened suddenly and unannounced. The passage in Genesis does not indicate that Enoch had prior knowledge of this event to prepare for it. Again, the translation of Elijah as seen in our text was announced; the period was known but the exact time, place, and modalities were unannounced. However, some people witnessed it

THE SECRET OF SUCCESS IN MINISTRY

God bless you for taking your time to study. THE SECRET OF SUCCESS IN MINISTRY  FRIDAY AUGUST 26th TEXT: JOSHUA 1:1-9 Key verse: Romans 12:11 Not slothful in business; fervent in spirit; serving the Lord; Books have been written on ministerial success and people have organized seminars and conferences on success but then we want to hear what God has to say about success in ministry. Success is based on the book of God. It comes from commitment to the book of God; but thou shalt meditate therein day and night. It comes from knowing what is in the book of God, committing yourself to what is in the book of God, that thou mayest observe to do according to all that is written therein. Success comes from careful obedience to the book of God. This is the sure way of success; then thou shalt make thy ways prosperous and then thou shall have good success. Success of God is a good one unlike that of men. Success in ministry means doing the ministry work in total obedience, compliance to the spec

THE CHURCH WEDDING AND MARRIAGE SOLEMNIZATION

God bless you for taking your time to study. THE CHURCH WEDDING AND MARRIAGE SOLEMNIZATION  TEXT: MATTHEW 19: 5-6:   FRIDAY SEPTEMBER 2nd Key verse: Hebrews 13: 4 Marriage is honorable in all, and the bed undefiled: but whoremongers and adulterers God will judge. The wedding is the solemnization of the marital union between two unmarried persons, a man and a woman by an approved minister of God before a congregation. Only after this are they considered husband and wife with the right to the marital bed. If you and your spouse decide on a wedding in the church, then it is expected that you are husband and wife only after the church wedding. It is only after this ceremony that both of you will have rights to your bodies. But if you have made yourselves husband and wife already, then the wedding solemnization in the church is a mockery of God. However, if you and your wife resolved to end it in traditional marriage, after your dowry payment the church wedding will not be required anymore.
