TOPIC: SIN DEPRIVES, HOLINESS RESTORES       
AUGUST Wednesday 22nd

TEXT: Luke 1:74-75
KEY VERSE: Teaching us that, denying ungodliness and worldly lusts, we should live soberly, righteously, and godly, in this present world; Titus 2: 12
Sin deforms and twists its victim. Moral deformity, moral deprivation! An empty sack cannot stand erect. That is the deprived nature we inherited from Adam. That is why David wrote in Psalm 51:5 , “Behold, I was shapen in iniquity; and in sin did my mother conceive me.” As descendants of Adam, everyone of us has the adamic sin in him or her. Job 14:4 says, “Who can bring a clean thing out of an unclean? not one.” Sins forgiven when you become born again are those committed by yourself not the inherited one. Sin of fornication, lying, cheating etc. That's why Jesus told the woman, "Your many sins are forgiven." Salvation gives you power to stop your act of sin. It gives you power to become a child of God. But that inherited adamic nature, the inward pollution, is still inhibiting against your holy living. Very often it rears its head and pollutes you. There was strive and self-seeking among Jesus’ disciples as to who was the greatest. They asked this question after Jesus told them he would be dying. They were struggling for succession. They were born again but the pollution came from their adamic nature. You are a Christian but easily provoked, easily angered, envious, jealous. The UNSANCTIFIED Christian will always rise and fall. He cannot keep himself completely out of sin. It is beyond his power. He needs to go to Jesus in prayer and ask for sanctification by faith.

HOLY LIVING cannot be separated from sanctification. Sanctification removes the adamic nature. Titus 2:14, “Who gave himself for us, that he might redeem us from all iniquity, ... [SALVATION] and purify [SANCTIFICATION] unto himself a peculiar people, zealous of good works.” Jesus said in John 8:36, “If the Son therefore shall make you free [SALVATION] ...  ye shall be free indeed [SANCTIFICATION].” Holiness is an imperative for a serious-minded believer no matter the condition of your life. Aged Zachariah and Elizabeth remained holy in the face of deprivation (Luke 1:5-7).  Job was holy in spite of his stupendous wealth (Job 1:1-3, 8). Holiness is a universal experience. It is total! 360 degrees, affecting your whole life. It is required of God. It is required to enjoy your Christian life so that people will not see reproach in your life, but a good fragrance. It gives full confidence of entering heaven. 

Thought for the day: Pray for sanctification until it is evident in your life and your conscience does not convict you.
Song for the day: Are you washed in the blood of the lamb
Bible reading for the day:
Psalms 119:49-104; 1Corinthians 4

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...
