TOPIC: REMOVE THE OBSTACLE TO YOUR HEAVENLY RACE (6) – MONEY  
SEPTEMBER Sunday 30th

TEXT: 1 Timothy 6:7-10

KEY VERSE: No man can serve two masters: for either he will hate the one, and love the other; or else he will hold to the one, and despise the other. Ye cannot serve God and mammon. Matthew 6: 24

You cannot serve God and money. Bible says in Matthew 22:37 Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind. But there are people that love money with all their heart, soul and strength. How can such people serve God when their mind, soul and everything is on money? A man was in church and preaching was going on but he was thinking about business and how to make a gain of N10,000. At that moment the preacher said, “Praise the Lord” and the man responded, “Ten thousand Naira.” Some people are in HOREMOW to make money. Everywhere they go, they seek for opportunity to make money. Judas forsook his Saviour for thirty pieces of silver. What is 30 pieces of silver compared to eternity in heaven? When your mind is shifted from Jesus to money, are you not saying money is more precious than your soul? 

Acts 8:18-21  And when Simon saw that through laying on of the apostles' hands the Holy Ghost was given, he offered them money, Saying, Give me also this power, that on whomsoever I lay hands, he may receive the Holy Ghost. But Peter said unto him, Thy money perish with thee, because thou hast thought that the gift of God may be purchased with money. Thou hast neither part nor lot in this matter: for thy heart is not right in the sight of God.  When your heart is on money, it cannot be right with God. Where a man’s treasure is, there his heart will be. Simon offered money for anointing so that he could make more money. To him, it is a business opportunity. Preachers are buying powers from demonic sources and are performing miracles for money. When you sow seed into such ministries you are sowing for Satan. God does not sell miracle. Any miracle on sale is from Satan and you will pay for it with your soul. But hear what righteous Peter told Simeon, “May your money perish with you.” In the poverty of life, do not go about false prophecy, telling people lies, selling holy water, anointing oil etc. Don’t go into darkness. Don’t follow crooked ways.

Thought for the day: If you love money, you cannot love God.
Song for the day: When we walk with the Lord in the light of His Word
Bible reading for the day:
Isaiah 19-21; Ephesians 2

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...

The local church should teach and train her members on scriptural fasting. Believers need to know that the Lord expects...
