TOPIC: SPIRITUAL DEVELOPMENT OF HEAVEN-BOUND CHRISTIAN         
AUGUST Thursday 16th

TEXT: 2 Timothy 2:14-16
KEY VERSE: Thy word have I hid in mine heart, that I might not sin against thee. Psalm 119: 11

The Christian that is heaven-bound must follow certain principles for her spiritual development in order to make her journey smooth.

1. Study The Word Of God Diligently. The word of God will keep you from sinning against God. Study to pattern your life after our Lord Jesus and to live a pure life. You will be pure in your thoughts, deeds, dressing and utterance. Through study you will have more knowledge of God that will take away ignorance and make you walk in the light. Your spiritual eyes will be opened. The word of God is a powerful weapon of war to break and tear asunder everything that raises itself against the purpose of God in your life. The word is a Guardian. Through it you will be prosperous. The word will give you courage and boldness. 
2. Diligence In Prayer. It is the offensive weapon of the Saint. Satan will not want you to pray so he will bring obsessions and oppressions that will distract you from praying. Develop personal prayer life. A prayerless Christian is a powerless Christian. Bring your needs to God in prayers and God will answer you. Wrestle in prayer because the Lord is nigh unto those that call on Him. Some situations may demand adding fasting to your prayer (Matthew 17:21).
3. Self-Discipline. Fasting is part of self-discipline. Also, control your tongue. Discipline your mouth. Put your mouth under guard. Don't be a talkative because of heaven (James 3:5-6).
Lying, gossips, exaggerating, dirty jokes can set the whole body on fire. Your speech should be pure and free from corruption. Like salt it should edify and have flavour (Colossians 4:6).
4. Read Good Christian Literatures. Take time to read and study them. Spend your money to get spiritual development. Take time to listen to inspired messages.
5. Avoid Bad Companions. Separate yourself from them because they are not ready for heaven. 1 Corinthians 15:33, “Be not deceived: evil communications corrupt good manners.”
The benefits of spiritual development include development of fruit of the Spirit (Galatians 5:22-23) and making yourself available to be used as a vessel of honour (2 Timothy 2:19-20).
Thought for the day:  Embark on self-development to avoid spiritual decay 
Song for the day: O Lord, keep me growing higher every day (4x) …
Bible reading for the day:
Psalms 105-106; Romans 15:1-21

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...

Pastor Paul Rika’s Burden, Vision and Action To Reach the Unreached (2)

God's blessings will continually accompany you for dedicating time to your studies. Pastor Paul Rika’s Burden, Vision and Action To Reach the Unreached (2) Wednesday 15th October TEXT: Titus 3: 3-6   Key verse: Titus 3: 6 “Which He shed on us abundantly through Jesus Christ our Savior.” I remember I was in Sao Tome and Principe as a deeper life national overseer and I was writing the book, “Divine Revelation of God’s Holiness and Judgment.” The vision the Lord gave to Michael Sambo. I was translating it into a book, with the scriptural backups to make it a sound evangelistic book. I saw that truly the world is doomed. What will I say about those who have not known Jesus among the 7 billion people on earth; those who do not even have anything to do with Him? Do I speak of the billions in Asia without understanding of Jesus? Out of the 1.4 billion in India, they are struggling to record 150 million Christians including Catholics.  Who knows Jesus then? Even among Pentecosta...
