TOPIC:  FACING THE CHALLENGES OF WIDOWHOOD       
 AUGUST Tuesday 28th

TEXT: Deuteronomy 30:15-19
KEY VERSE: Who is among you that feareth the Lord that obeyeth the voice of his servant that walketh in darkness, and hath no light? Let him trust in the name of the Lord, and stay upon his God. Isaiah 50: 10

Even though widowhood produces many challenges, the widow can still live a life of holiness and righteousness and remain heaven-bound. It is a matter of personal decision. Let's examine the case of two widows. In Ruth 1:4-18, two women faced the same circumstance but chose different paths of widowhood.  Some widows became second wives, concubines and harlots because they could not take the right decision. Ruth was determined that she would not let herself be abused because of widowhood. God who made the mouth knows how to fill the stomach. God who made the body knows how to kill the sensual desire of the body. Ruth took a costly decision taking a risk on God and today, no widow has exceeded her record. That which Ruth lost for the sake of Christ all came back to her. At the time your husband died, God set before you two things: good and evil, blessing and cursing, life and death (Deuteronomy 30:15, 19). God wants you to make the right choice and take the right decision even as you face the challenges of widowhood. 

Purpose in your heart not to defile yourself. Daniel 1:8, “But Daniel purposed in his heart that he would not defile himself with the portion of the king's meat, nor with the wine which he drank: therefore he requested of the prince of the eunuchs that he might not defile himself.” Tame your desires. God will not sponsor follies. Purpose in your heart no man shall see your nakedness. Like Job, purpose in your heart to preserve your integrity and righteousness. Job 27:1-6 “Moreover Job continued his parable, and said, As God liveth, who hath taken away my judgment; and the Almighty, who hath vexed my soul; All the while my breath is in me, and the spirit of God is in my nostrils; My lips shall not speak wickedness, nor my tongue utter deceit. God forbid that I should justify you: till I die I will not remove mine integrity from me. My righteousness I hold fast, and will not let it go: my heart shall not reproach me so long as I live.” Are you a widow? Maintain your faith in God whatever condition you are passing through in your widowhood.

Thought for the day:  Widowhood is not condemnation to a life of misery. It is an opportunity to move closer to God. 
Song for the day:   I will never, never end my journey half way
Bible reading for the day:
Psalms 136-138; 1 Corinthians 9

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...
