HUMILITY, THE HALLMARK OF TRUE CHRISTIANITY THURSDAY JUNE 8 TEXT: DEUTERONOMY 20: 19 Key Verse: “let nothing be done through strife or vain glory; but in loveliness of mind let each esteem other better than the themselves” Philippians 2: 32 Beloved, humility is the essential ingredient in Christian life which was central in the life and ministry of Christ. Jesus is God but made Himself of no reputation and took upon Himself the form of a servant, and was made in the likeness of men. A humble man thinks of God first, others second, and himself last. He carries the burden of others and does not get offended when others seem not to carry his own burden. Humility is having a contrite spirit and a broken heart. A humble person is a man of prayer because he does not depend on his own ability but relies solely on God. The opposite of humility is pride and pride goes before a fall. For God despises the proud but gives grace to the humble. Pride can manifest in different ways due to; (1) Beauty. Satan was one of the moist beautiful creatures of God but he was carried away by pride and was cast out of heaven. Pride is the reason why people find it difficult to remove their jewelleries and worldly adornment. They think that they look ugly (2) pride can manifest due to riches and material possessions, which hinders one from total surrender to Christ. (3) pride can manifest in carnal mind where one will want to be wiser (4) Pride can also manifest in class distinction, where one cannot lower himself and associate with men of how estate because of education attainment, family background, social class and ethnic group. (5) Pride can manifest in speech where one tries to impress men in speech or preaching just to receive their applause. Brethren, we need to be humble by coming to Christ to learn of Him. If we want to receive more of the grace of God we need to be humble. If we want to enter the kingdom of God; then we have to be humble, be converted like little children. We should always ask God for mercy as a sign of humility and don’t be carried away by self righteousness. Thought for the day: Anytime you take yourself as some body, you are nobody before God. Song for the day: Unto Thee O Lord, do I lift up my soul. . . . . . Bible reading for the day: 2 Chronicles 26-28; John 17 #horemow.

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...

Pastor Paul Rika’s Burden, Vision and Action To Reach the Unreached (2)

God's blessings will continually accompany you for dedicating time to your studies. Pastor Paul Rika’s Burden, Vision and Action To Reach the Unreached (2) Wednesday 15th October TEXT: Titus 3: 3-6   Key verse: Titus 3: 6 “Which He shed on us abundantly through Jesus Christ our Savior.” I remember I was in Sao Tome and Principe as a deeper life national overseer and I was writing the book, “Divine Revelation of God’s Holiness and Judgment.” The vision the Lord gave to Michael Sambo. I was translating it into a book, with the scriptural backups to make it a sound evangelistic book. I saw that truly the world is doomed. What will I say about those who have not known Jesus among the 7 billion people on earth; those who do not even have anything to do with Him? Do I speak of the billions in Asia without understanding of Jesus? Out of the 1.4 billion in India, they are struggling to record 150 million Christians including Catholics.  Who knows Jesus then? Even among Pentecosta...
