MARRIAGE IS SACRED     SATURDAY DECEMBER 2
TEXT: 1 CORINTHIANS 7:3-5                                                                                        
Memory verse:
Marriage is God ordained institution and therefore must be held sacred. Believers, church leaders and the clergy must see marriage as a holy thing and should not be handled with carelessness because marriage is one of the strong pillars of the Christian doctrine. Marriage should be well presented and well understood before going into it by intending couples. The family unit is the smallest number that constitutes the Church known as the Body of Christ and the society at large. Therefore constant prayer, caution and care must be taken that this small member of the Church which came as a result of marriage is not destroyed. Peace in the marriage is peace in the Church. Blessing in the family is blessing in the Church. So the man who is the husband, father and head of the family should follow Biblical principles for marriage not the traditional principles to rule his home. And the woman who is the wife and mother must also follow suit to assist in administering the family in her marriage to the well being of her husband, children and members of her household. And the children see that they reverence their parents in the Lord.
Obedience to God’s words in marriage brings benefits as follows-: Children are brought under subjection not wayward; there is family promotion not retardation; increase not decrease; Hope in life not depression; an example of the believers in Christian marriage not a reproach. That is as an epistle to the world, the neighbours, friends, and colleagues. This good example is not for the benefit of others only who see us but for our souls’ sake, because our souls in the marriage could be lost and face eternal damnation. He who made and instituted marriage demands obedience to this commandment the foundation to every good marriage is marrying in Christ. For every solid building depends on its foundation so is every good marriage and a Christian home. It is through marriage that the law of multiplication, dominion and fruitfulness can be achieved –that marriage must fulfil the will and purpose of God through Christ.   
Thought for the day: Three vital guiding principles: For God’s sake; for your soul’s sake; and for heaven’s sake.
Song for the day: Jesus in the family, happy happy home…

Bible reading for the day: Ezekiel 47-48; 1 John 1

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...

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...
