TOPIC: MAKE LOVE THE PILLAR OF YOUR MARRIAGE

TEXT: 1 Corinthians 13:4-8

Key verse: Ecclesiastes 9:9 Live joyfully with the wife whom thou lovest all the daysof the life of thy vanity, which he hath given thee under the sun, all the days of thy vanity: for that is thy portion in this life, and in thy labour which thou takest under the sun.

Some get married but love was not involved. Some were charmed to get married and their eyes later opened when the charm wears off. Forgive the past and ask God to fill you with love for her or him so that you may not act sinfully against your spouse. The God of love is able to do that and replace the hatred in your heart with love. Some get married for money. The power of money is not strong enough to sustain the bond of friendship in marriage. When money goes as it sometimes happen, the desire to remain in marriage wanes. Get satisfaction in your spouse above riches, fame, popularity, position, power and even children because your children will not live with you for life. Don't trouble your wife or hate your husband otherwise, you hate yourself and fight with your shadow. Ephesians 5:28 So ought men to love their wives as their own bodies. He that loveth his wife loveth himself.

Malachi 2:14-16 Yet ye say, Wherefore? Because the Lord hath been witness between thee and the wife of thy youth, against whom thou hast dealt treacherously: yet is she thy companion, and the wife of thy covenant. [15] And did not he make one? Yet had he the residue of the spirit. And wherefore one?
That he might seek a godly seed. Therefore take heed to your spirit, and let none deal treacherously against the wife of his youth. [16] For the Lord , the God of Israel, saith that he hateth putting away: for one covereth violence with his garment, saith the Lord of hosts: therefore take heed to your spirit, that ye deal not treacherously.

God was a witness to your marriage and he faithfully keeps record of each person's performance in marriage. When you made your marriage vows at the altar he was there. When you made those sweet promises to her or to him on the bed he was there. When you promised to love her forever, God was there! Now that you have married, God is saying you should not oppress your spouse and that he hates putting away. You must forgive your spouse no matter the offence in the spirit of love you professed in time past. Woman, you must not keep grudge against your husband. The wife or husband of your youth must remain your partner in old age for as long as he or she lives. If your spouse voluntarily decides to go, you have not sinned by yielding but you cannot marry another while he or she is still alive.

Thought for the day: Marriage built on love is like a house built on rock.

Song for the day: God, give us Christian home

Bible reading for the day: 2 Chronicles 1-3; John 12:1-19

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...

Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on Me, the works that I do shall he do also; and greater works than these shall he do; because I go unto My Father.  13.

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...
