TOPIC: THE SECRET OF A PEACEFUL LIFE (2) - ABSORB ALL INSULTS           
AUGUST THURSDAY 2nd

TEXT: Romans 12:17-21
KEY VERSE: But I say unto you, that ye resist not evil: but whosoever shall smite thee on thy right cheek, turn to him the other also. Matthew 5: 39

As a maturing Christian, you will come to a point that when someone insults you, you will be quiet; you will not allow it to bother you. It is like pouring water on the back of a duck. People antagonize you, but you are peaceful; they disdain you, but you are peaceful; they criticize you, but you remain peaceful. They disrespect you and challenge your authority, but you are peaceful and undisturbed because you have understood that this thing must have been allowed by God to test your spiritual strength. King David was driven into the wilderness by his son Absalom, when he wanted to oust him as King. As he went on the way, there was a man named Shimei from the family of Kind Saul who harassed him on the way saying, “Come out, come out, thou bloody man, and thou man of Belial: The LORD hath returned upon thee all the blood of the house of Saul, in whose stead thou hast reigned; and the LORD hath delivered the kingdom into the hand of Absalom thy son: and, behold, thou art taken in thy mischief, because thou art a bloody man.”

David was unperturbed. Do you know why? Because he knew his hands were clean and God knows. David knew he wasn’t passing through the judgement of God over what his son Absalom was doing. He had a clear conscience because the Holy Spirit had not convicted him. One of David’s elite soldiers responded, “Why should this dead dog curse my lord the king? let me go over, I pray thee, and take off his head.” David rebuked his military commander wondering why he was thinking like that. He told him to leave Shimei alone for God knew his innocence and he knew how God works. He that saw his innocence will turn the man’s curses into blessings for him. With this kind of positive mindset, David remained peaceful. That is the way to handle people that want to take away your peace.

Thought for the day: Do not avenge yourself. Leave vengeance to God.
Song for the day: Christian walk carefully
Bible reading for the day:
Psalms 68-69; Romans 3

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...
