SUBMISSION OF THE MARRIED WOMAN TO HER HUSBAND.  SUNDAY NOVEMBER 19
TEXT: EPHESIANS 5:22-24, COLOSSIANS 4:18                                                       
Key Verse: “Then Peter and the other apostles answered and said, We ought to obey God rather than men.” Acts 5:29
Wives are commanded in scripture to obey and submit to their own husbands in everything as the church obeys and submits to Christ. The headship of the husband, even the unbelieving one, over the wife, is compared to the headship of Christ over the church. The submission of the wife to her husband should be in the same degree as the submission of the church to Christ. The Christian wives should obey and submit to their unbelieving husbands to the point that some of them can become converted by observing the godly and unblemished life of their wives.
However, the submission by the wife to her husband should be “as it is fit in the Lord”. Submission to the husband does not involve satisfying his sinful passions or obeying his ungodly demands and commands. The husband is not the owner of her soul but God and she is nowhere instructed to jeopardize her eternal life in order to maintain the earthly marriage union. As the 3 Hebrew children answered king Nebuchadnezzar, so must a Christian wife humbly but firmly answer her husband when he goes evil in demand and exercise of authority over her. The marriage relationship and its earthly privileges should be despised when the husband demands submission of the wife to his idols and Satan. God is able to keep her in the marriage if He so wishes. She must not lose her soul to hell because of the fierceness of her husband. If God chooses not to preserve her in the marriage, she should be ready to terminate the marriage for the sake of her Lord Jesus and her eternal soul, not minding whatever she may suffer.
Thought for the day: Submission to the ungodly and sinful demands of your husband is idolatry.
Song for the day: Jesus must be honoured, must be honoured (2x) in my life everyday

Bible reading for the day: Ezekiel 20-21; James 1

For taking your time to study remain blessed. 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...
