Spirituality Is Required, Not Carnality

God's blessings will continually accompany you for dedicating time to your studies. Spirituality Is Required, Not Carnality   Friday 19th September  Text: Galatians 1: 10 - 12  Key verse: Psalm 101 verse 3: “I will set no wicked thing before mine eyes, I hate the work of them that turn aside; it shall not cleave to me”.  The Psalmist here resolved not to appreciate the service of those that turn away, who live in sin and hypocrisy. He shall not delight in such service. It is as valueless as a cloud without rain, an empty well without water; valueless! Should we give people flattering titles because they did this and that, and the person is not in Christ? I will not give him an eye of approval or a comment of approval. You that is praying for leadership, and for me “Oh God help Pastor Paul Rika, let this work stand”. Pray in this line too “That at no time should Pastor Paul Rika leave the spiritual for carnality; that at no time should he leave the honour of Jesu...

Walk With A Perfect Heart

God's blessings will continually accompany you for dedicating time to your studies. Walk With A Perfect Heart Tuesday 16 September  Text: Mathew 13: 35 - 37  Key verse: 2 Timothy 3: 17 “That the man of God may be perfect, thoroughly furnished unto all good works.” Be resolved to conduct yourself in utmost piety to justify the doctrine of holiness. It is as the people see you manifest the virtues of righteousness that you will have ministerial authority over them. Then, they can submit. When they see you display what you preach, they will follow you; for Christ has given us an example that we should follow His steps. True holiness is the one that issues from a purified heart and the godly leader must seek sanctification experience and maintain it.  His resolve also shows transparency before all in the private or open, in the family and in the church. “I shall be transparent; my works shall be clear. My people shall not find me with fault; I will be transparent.” Paul...

Falling Down Under Anointing and the Holiness of God

God's blessings will continually accompany you for dedicating time to your studies. Falling Down Under Anointing and the Holiness of God  Wednesday 17 September  Text: 2 Timothy 3: 16-17  Key verse: Habakkuk 1:13 Thou art of purer eyes than to behold evil, and canst not look on iniquity.  It is not a manifestation of God's healing and deliverance power. Above all, our contention is that this manifestation which is so rampant today lacks scriptural authority. Whoever sees this manifesting in his ministry must return to God in prayer and be sober and diligent in his way. Salvation and holiness of life of men is the end of every Christian ministry. There are sufficient scriptural signs and gifts of the Spirit to covet. Manifestations which are not traceable to the scriptures must be rejected.  We cannot deny that people may fall down due to Holy Spirit manifestation in the ministry of a true minister of God. The following may be the cause of some people falling dow...

A Call For God's Divine Presence

God's blessings will continually accompany you for dedicating time to your studies. A Call For God's Divine Presence Monday 15th September  Text: Isaiah 57: 15 - 18   Key verse: Psalms 101 verse 2: “I will behave myself wisely in a perfect way, O when wilt thou come unto me? I will walk within my house with a perfect heart.”  This is a call for God's divine presence, help and support in ministry. David needs wisdom and perfection to win the presence of God in his ministry. God is holy, who will sit with Him on high? Those that are of a contrite spirit, of a humble heart, of a holy heart and of righteousness. Such will be with God, the eyes of the Lord are upon the righteous. David wanted God to be with him; and if God must be with him, wisdom and perfection is required. He must be wise so that he can be perfect; then he will gain the presence of God. Otherwise, you will be carrying out Christian leadership as a man running a chemist; or you will be running the C...

Wisdom And Perfection

God's blessings will continually accompany you for dedicating time to your studies. Wisdom And Perfection   Sunday 14 September  Text: 2 Chronicles 1: 7 - 12   Key verse: James 3: 17 But the wisdom that is from above is first pure, then peaceable, gentle, and easy to be intreated, full of mercy and good fruits, without partiality, and without hypocrisy.  David now set before him wisdom and perfection. This is what every minister of God must set before himself. To lead people requires wisdom. Solomon asked for it. Do not forget to ask for this. Wisdom is the principal thing. Therefore, get wisdom and in all thy getting, get understanding. This wisdom must be pure for you to be perfect. Many use wisdom actually but it is the wisdom to do evil, wisdom to cover evil, wisdom to escape with their evil. That is not the wisdom of God. That kind of wisdom is not of God. The wisdom that descended from above is first pure, it is clean and perfect. You need this wisdom...

Working In The Will Of God

God's blessings will continually accompany you for dedicating time to your studies. Working In The Will Of God  Saturday 13th September  TEXT: James 5: 7-11 Key verse: James 5: 8 “Be ye also patient; stablish your hearts, for the coming of the Lord draweth nigh.” Working in the will of God is working by His guidance. God is the One to direct the actions. He is the Captain; we are following Him. He is the One to direct us to the place and position we should take. Working for heaven is working by the guidance of God and by the supply of grace from God. Working not by our own mechanical strength but by the supply of grace. Always look to Him. Jesus Christ said when thou pray, say “Our Father, which art in heaven. Hallowed be Thy name. Thy kingdom, come. Thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread. Always ask for daily grace for the work He has called you to do that you might do it by His spirit, anointing, guidance and instruction. Always ask fo...

Man; A Great Disappointment To God

God's blessings will continually accompany you for dedicating time to your studies. Man; A Great Disappointment To God Thursday 11th September  TEXT: Exodus 32: 1 - 10 Key verse: Exodus 32:7 “And the LORD said unto Moses; Go, get thee down, for thy people, which thou brought out of the land of Egypt have corrupted themselves.”  The people told Aaron, “Make us gods according to the manner of the gods of the Egyptians.” Do they know that the living God exists? Because He displayed His power among them. Did they know Him as the everlasting God? They know that He does not die. For this God does not die because He was the God that had been with Abraham and with them, a period of more than four hundred years. They knew that He was everlasting. Did they see His miracle power? Ah, they saw everything. They saw hailstones and fire rained down upon Egypt. They saw the judgment of God over Egypt.  They saw the Red Sea dried up and congealed standing as two mighty walls and they ...
