TOPIC: CLARIFICATIONS ON USE OF FACIAL POWDER     
OCTOBER Thursday 18th
TEXT: Isaiah 3: 16-24
KEY VERSE: And when thou art spoiled, what wilt thou do?  Though thou clothest thyself with crimson, though thou deckest thee with ornaments of gold, though thou rentest thy face with painting, in vain shalt thou make thyself fair; thy lovers will despise thee, they will seek thy life. Jeremiah 4: 30
QUESTION: I heard from some people that the use of powder is not a sin but I told them it is a sin. Please tell us something about it in the bible, because some of us that have babies or children we still use powder for them. Even when we have rashes we still use them. I want to know if it is a sin to use powder.
ANSWER: To use powder on your child’s body to arrest heat or any other thing is not wrong. To use powder on your own body, maybe medicated, while at home, to arrest heat is not wrong. But don’t paint your face with powder. Don’t paint your face with powder to seek for beauty. Those who do such painting do so for a purpose, to achieve artificial beauty, to appear more attractive to men. It is part of the dressing of a harlot.
The aim of this painting is to arrive at smooth face, beautiful face and attractive appearance. That is wickedness! It is evil. The idea is to smoothen your face, since to you, it is not properly made smooth enough by the Creator! It is a subtle accusation against your Maker.  You may say, my own is not like that, my own is because I sweat a lot. Are you the only person God made in this world? What about all others who sweat? Must we go on powder? No. Those who paint their faces with powder desire to achieve beauty. Avoid that in your life as a Christian.
Thought for the day: God loves natural beauty and appearance
Song for the day: Holiness is the beauty of the believer
Bible reading for the day:
Isaiah 65-66; 2 Thessalonians 1.

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...
