EVERY WORD OF GOD FOR DAILY LIVING

BY PASTOR PAUL RIKA

SUNDAY MAY 6, 2018

TOPIC: FREEDOM FROM WITCHCRAFT

TEXT: ACTS 19:18-20

Key verse:“Who hath delivered us from the power of darkness, and hath translated us into the kingdom of his dear Son” Col 1:13

Some ministers forbear to preach the truth because they want to have money; they want to ride jeep; they want to have mansions but there is no genuine conversion. They call themselves successful but in truth they are going after vanity and shall end up in the pit of hell. Never say they are successful because they are not.
Following are the identification marks of a successful minister:
1. Righteous and holy living. You might have been failing because of sin in your life. Have you been living a lie? You're are committing immorality; how can you be
successful? You are saved to serve God in holiness, not in sin. Luke 1:74-75
74. That he would grant unto us, that we being delivered out of the hand of our enemies might serve him without fear,
75. In holiness and righteousness before him, all the days of our life.

2. Faith in God (Hebrews 11:6; Jeremiah 17:5-8). Your ministry should be God centred. Run your ministry by faith. Don't look to any man. Look to God alone. Why go about begging men for money, telling lies to get money? You don't mind
collecting dirty money as tithe from evil workers armed robbers, 419, kidnappers?

3. Persistence in prayer. Jeremiah 29:12-13
12. Then shall ye call upon me, and ye shall go and pray unto me, and I will hearken unto you.
13. And ye shall seek me,
and find me, when ye shall search for me with all your heart.

4. Love. Love God to the point of suffering for Him. God suffered and died for
you in love but you're not ready to suffer persecution of people by telling them the truth that will save them? If you love the people you will not be hiding from them the truth that will save them. Matthew 22:37-38. Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind … Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself.

5. Knowledge, understanding and practice of God's word. Ezra 7:10 For Ezra had prepared his heart to seek the law of the LORD, and to do it, and to teach in Israel statutes and judgments.

6. Associate with holy and faithful ministers. Learn from righteous people, holy ministers. Proverbs 13:20 He that walketh with wise men shall be wise: but a companion of fools shall be destroyed.

7. Be fearless and courageous. 2 Timothy 1:7.

8. Be hardworking. Proverbs 22:29.

Thought for the day: Serve to please God, not men.

Song for the day: I will exalt you Lord for thou has lifted me above my enemies, your banner over me is love.

Bible reading for the day:
1Kings 12-13;
Luke 24:36-53

Signs And Wonders Should Be According To Biblical Pattern

God's blessings shall be following you continually for taking the time to study. Signs And Wonders Should Be According To Biblical Pattern Text: Mark 16: 17 – 20 Wednesday May 8th Key verse: Obadiah 17 “Upon mount Zion shall be deliverance, and there shall be holiness and the house of Jacob shall possess their possessions.” God has prepared to direct us on holy service unto Himself. He tells us when the lives and services of people are corrupt because from the heart of men proceed the works they do. When people are righteous and holy, their service is also righteous and holy. Hence, the word says, make the people holy then their service will be holy, so if you accept to live a life of holiness, then the fruit of your service will be holy. So, it is very important to accept the life of holiness because the God that made you is holy; He will give you grace to be holy. You just make up your mind to be holy. Do not accept that no man can be holy; then Jesus came for nothing, Jes...

God’s Extra Effort In Restoring The Backslider

God's blessings shall be following you continually for taking the time to study. God’s Extra Effort In Restoring The Backslider  Sunday May 12th Text: Jeremiah 3: 15 – 17 Key verse: Ezekiel 33: 11 Say unto them, As I live, saith the Lord God, I have no pleasure in the death of the wicked; but that the wicked turn from his way and live: turn ye, turn ye from your evil ways; for why will ye die, O house of Israel.  Receive the word that will change you, restore you, reestablish you and give you back the hope of eternal life. Come back! The Lord is pleading. Can you see the effort of God in your life? And can you see madness in your life; resisting every effort God is making. God is calling you. Retrace your ways. Follow the good old way. Go and confess those things, do not keep them. Your problem is, you want to serve God but you have not confessed your sins openly because of shame, fear and  pride which shall be dissolved in hell. That is where your problem is. Yes, you wa...
