TOPIC: REMOVE THE OBSTACLE TO YOUR HEAVENLY RACE (5)–YOUR FAMILY 
SEPTEMBER Monday 3rd

TEXT:  Matthew 10:34-38
KEY VERSE: He that loveth father or mother more than me is not worthy of me: and he that loveth son or daughter more than me is not worthy of me. Matthew 10: 37
If you desire to satisfy the wish of your family members all the time, they will make you miss heaven. Your husband is complaining you don’t look beautiful again because you are not putting on makeups. Hatred is coming from everywhere, telling you to drop this holy, holy Christianity. A girl complained that her father threatened not to pay her school fees unless she resumed wearing attachment and using makeups. She asked, “What should I do?” I told her, “Don’t go back to those things. Let him do his worst. It is better to be sent away from your father’s house than to be sent away from heaven!”

It is hard for our women who have terrible husband that would not respect the Word of God. Don’t worry. The Spirit in you is fiercer. Do not play meekness to that man. He paid the price for your body, not your soul. Your soul belongs to God. If marriage must come to an end so be it. Do not care for your marriage at the expense of Jesus. Be like the three Hebrew boys who defied king Nebuchadnezzar. Do not turn your husband into an idol to be worshipped. You cannot obey man to disobey God. Choose who to stick to rather than wavering between God and man. A man’s foe shall be they of his own household. If Satan is using your spouse to buffet you or an in-law to make your life miserable, may the Lord give you the wisdom to manage the situation well, without offending God.

Samuel’s children were stubborn children given to iniquity (1 Samuel 8:1-3) but it did not affect him (1 Samuel 12:1-4). That is heavenly race! Let not your children become obstacles to your heavenly race. The soul of the child is different from the soul of the father. Don’t allow the sin of any family member to affect you. Remain spotless because the race is individualistic. You will not go to hell for your wife, or husband or child or father or mother or uncle. If Samuel made it in spite of the contradiction of children, you too can make it if you keep to the rules. Exalt God above your father, or mother, or husband or wife. John Wesley would have missed heaven on account of the wife. Love God above your body. If they say they will kill you, let them kill you. A Muslim lady gave her life to Jesus and the elder brother said he would beat out Jesus from her. She remained adamant even after several beatings. If someone gets Jesus out of you, it is because you agree to it.

Thought for the day:  You must choose between your family and Jesus.
Song for the day:   I surrender all
Bible reading for the day:
Proverbs 3-4; 1 Corinthians 13

HOLINESS REVIVAL MOVEMENT WORLDWIDE Daily Devotional EVERY WORD OF GOD FOR DAILY LIVING  _BY_ *PASTOR PAUL RIKA*  Int'l Director        (Holiness Revival Movement Worldwide) THURSDAY NOVEMBER 1 , 2018  _TOPIC:_    *YOU WILL SUCCEED AS CHRIST DID BY PRAYER*           TEXT: John 16: 23-24. KEY VERSE: It came to pass, as He was praying in a certain place, when He ceased, one of His disciples said, Lord, teach us how to pray as John taught his disciples. Luke 11: 1. When Jesus Christ came to us in the flesh, He went into the business of prayer because He was promoting the attribute of God as a prayer-answering God. He would not render that attribute idle or redundant. Nobody knew how John did it, but Jesus reveals here that the success you saw in the ministry of John the Baptist, the victory you saw in his ministry, is because he was a prayer man. John so much valued prayer. He saw the essentials of pr...
