DON'T FEAR IDOLS OR SHRINES
JUNE Saturday 9th
Text: Isaiah 46:1-10
Key Verse: Isaiah 44:6 Thus saith the LORD the King of Israel, and his redeemer the LORD of hosts; I am the first, and I am the last; and beside me there is no God.

Isaiah 44:8 Fear ye not, neither be afraid … Is there a God beside me? … I know not any. The Devil puts people in bondage by creating fear in their heart. One of the things that causes this fear are idols and shrines. They are feared, they are worshipped, they are sacrificed to. People do all these things in ignorance believing that these idols or shrines have some powers to protect, to deliver, to prosper and to elongate their lives. But God is saying, fear not the idols for they are harmless. They are nothing compared to your Great God. Their incantations and spell cannot work on you. You are shielded by the power of God.

What operates in these idols and shrines are demons - wicked spirits who hate men with passion and are all out for their soul. There is nothing good in them. 1 Corinthians 10:20 But I say, that the things which the Gentiles sacrifice, they sacrifice to devils, and not to God: and I would not that ye should have fellowship with devils. If you put an empty pot on the tree, after some time bees will make it their habitation. It is the same way demons inhabit idols created by men. They are helpless. They are dead and have no life in them. Psalm 115:4-8 Their idols are silver and gold, the work of men's hands. 5 They have mouths, but they speak not: eyes have they, but they see not: 6 They have ears, but they hear not: noses have they, but they smell not: 7 They have hands, but they handle not: feet have they, but they walk not: neither speak they through their throat. 8 They that make them are like unto them; so is every one that trusteth in them.

There is no god apart from God. 1 Corinthians 8:4-6 …We know that an idol is nothing in the world, and that there is none other God but one. 5 For though there be that are called gods, whether in heaven or in earth, … But to us there is but one God, the Father, of whom are all things, and we in him; and one Lord Jesus Christ, by whom are all things, and we by him. Jesus came to set the captives free (Heb. 2:14-15). Jesus has triumphed over Satan, his demons and idols. Colossians 2:15 And having spoiled principalities and powers, he made a shew of them openly, triumphing over them in it.

Thought for the day: Ignore the idols. They are useless and harmless.
Song for the day: It is a great thing to serve the Lord
Bible reading for the day: 2 Chronicles 29-31; John 18:1-23

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...

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...
