FORGIVE OTHERS AS CHRIST FORGIVES YOU TUESDAY JUNE 27 TEXT: MATTHEW 18: 25 – 35 Key verse: “And forgive us our debts, as we forgive our debtors” Matthew 6: 12 To forgive means to give up resentment of or claim to requital revenge for an offence. It also means to grant relief from payment of a debt and to pardon someone’s wrong doings. Using the parable of the wicked servant (Matthew 18: 25 – 35), the Lord Jesus Christ illustrated that the forgiveness we obtained from God is conditional and depends on whether or not we forgive those who offend us. He also taught that those who obtained forgiveness from God should give and ask for forgiveness from their fellows who they have offended. Hence, if you claim forgiveness from God and cannot forgive your offenders, that forgiveness from God is cancelled. This is because God granted you forgiveness conditionally just like the law court can grant someone bail based on the agreement that certain conditions will be fulfilled. How did God forgive us? The Bible says that while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us (Romans 5: 6, 8). God forgave us freely and gave us His only begotten Son to die for our sins. Your forgiveness to others has to be free too. Don’t wait for them to come and ask you; take the first step because God took the first step in reconciling man to Himself by giving Jesus to die on the cross for our sins. Always remember that if you don’t forgive, your prayers will not be answered. Forgiveness is a show of love to offenders as God is love; show love to one another also. Rebuke and correct your brother and forgive him if he repents as God does to His children that stray. Remind, discuss and tell your brother his fault and sin so that you can forgive him as the Holy Ghost is doing today in the Church (Matthew 18: 15 – 17). Humble yourself, bow down, solicit and beg for forgiveness from any person you offended. Don’t forget that if there is anybody you refuse to forgive or anyone having any genuine issue against you, you will miss heaven. Settle with all men now. Write letters like Paul and go back home like the prodigal son to be forgiven and to forgive others. Thought for the day: As much as it lies within you live peaceably with all men. Song of the day: Lord prepare me, a sanctuary pure and holy, tried and true. Bible reading for the day: Job 10-12; Acts 8:1-25 #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...

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...
