WITHOUT HOLINESS YOU CANNOT GO FAR WITH GOD
April Monday  23rd
Text: Matthew 7:21-23
Key Verse: Ephesians 4:17  This I say therefore, and testify in the Lord, that ye henceforth walk not as other Gentiles walk, in the vanity of their mind.

You are charitable, always helping the weak and poor, ready to help gospel work, always ready to assist like America but your back is turned against God. Your reward is like somebody who has rendered service but has no account to lodge in the cheque that will be issued in payment. God appreciates your service but the reward can only be paid into your account in heaven. The documentation required to open heaven's account is holiness. Christianity without holiness is like running a relay race without a baton in your hand. In the course of service there was miracle. That’s great! In service, Jesus will answer your prayers. He is only honouring His name. He will provide for you, He will defend and protect you but all these are for service, not for heaven. The church in our time has chosen miracle above holiness of life. These days people celebrate miracles, signs and wonders, not eternal life. We see in the life of Samson that you can be operating in service with secret sin. Even in his sin Samson demonstrated anointing. God preserved him, giving him power to uproot the iron gate and even climb up the mountain because he is preparing him for service (Judges 16:1-3). 

The gift of God is without repentance. You see ministers wearing jewelries, trousers, and committing immorality, yet they are preaching and leading many to righteousness. They will all go to hell. They are using the power of God but when they die they will go to hell. God told the Israelites I'm not going to drive the inhabitants away at once. I will do it little by little. That is the methodology of God in dealing with sinners. He exercises a lot of patience with them. Samson told multiple lies yet his power was still there. Rely not on your works. Let him that glorieth glory in this, that he understandeth and knoweth me. That should be your confidence and boasting. You prophesy but sin is in your life? You cast out devils but greed is in your life? Get out of it for you don't go to heaven because you cast out devils. Live holy and stop abusing the privilege of calling. Exercise clear conscience and fight against anger, envy, lust, greed, covetousness and all forms of evil as you labour in service. Rewards are based on works of holiness - the services we render: by what motive, by what standard. That is the standard of measurement.

Thought for the day: Walk worthy of your calling
Song for the day: When we walk with the Lord in the light of His Word
Bible reading for the day:
2Samuel 7-9; Luke 19:1-29

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...

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...
