TOPIC: YOU MUST BE DIFFERENT   
SEPTEMBER Saturday 1st

TEXT: Daniel 1:3-7

KEY VERSE: 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.  Daniel 1: 8

Daniel distinguished himself in exemplary living.  He attended a 3-year course at the school of the gifted that was set up by king Nebuchadnezzar. He was there with three other Hebrew boys. The school was to prepare intelligent minds for high positions in government. As meal, they were offered food from the king’s table. But this food was first sacrificed to idols before they are served and righteous Daniel knew this. Daniel stood out of the crowd of students and rejected the food. The power of his exemplary life influenced the other three Hebrew boys, who joined him to reject the food. “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.” 

It was a personal decision that Daniel took, ignoring the consequences, which could be death. Daniel did not take the decision with the other Hebrew boys. It was a unilateral decision. The other three could go ahead to eat, but not Daniel. They all grew up in the same environment and had the same moral training, but Daniel was exceptional and different. That is what God is looking for in you. Daniel was a man of purpose who had heaven in focus. If you want to go to heaven, you must be different. You must not follow the crowd or the pattern of this world. We are all in Holiness Revival Movement, but not everybody you see there has heaven in focus. Majority are serious about the heaven business, but not all. Do not be distracted by them. Do not allow your spouse or friends or relatives or tradition to drag you to hell. Focus on where you are going and you will get there in Jesus name.

Thought for the day: If everybody does it, you are not everybody. You are special and different.
Song for the day: Holiness is the beauty of believers, Lord I want to be Holy, Lord I want……
Bible reading for the day:
Psalms 148-150; 1 Corinthians 11:16-34. #Horemow.

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...
