TOPIC: GOD’S WORKS OF MERCY
TEXT: GENESIS 20:1-8
KEY VERSE: Genesis 20:6 And God said unto him in a dream, Yea, I know that thou didst this in the integrity of thy heart; for I also withheld thee from sinning against me: therefore suffered I thee not to touch her.

Our God is merciful. He is not quick to judge or condemn. He is not interested in the fall or destruction of people. He is a loving God, who exercises much patience with the sinner giving him period of grace for repentance, and sometimes obstructing his descent into sin without necessarily interfering with his free choice. The story of king Abimelech is instructive. God saw the sincerity of Abimelech and decided to save him by demonstrating His mercies through some strange happenings, such as shutting up the womb of every woman in the king’s household. They were all plagued with barrenness. He even restrained the king from touching Sarah (Genesis 20:6). This could have manifested as some kind of ailment or disease just to get the king’s attention. Unfortunately, the king did not get the message until God appeared to him in a dream. God speaks in many ways. Sometimes in plain language, sometimes through indirect speech as in parables and sometimes circumstantially.

Job 33:14-18  For God speaketh once, yea twice, yet man perceiveth it not. In a dream, in a vision of the night, when deep sleep falleth upon men, in slumberings upon the bed;  Then he openeth the ears of men, and sealeth their instruction, That he may withdraw man from his purpose, and hide pride from man. He keepeth back his soul from the pit, and his life from perishing by the sword.

You might have been made to suffer some hardship to call your attention to the wrong you have done. God may be using one sign or the other to call your attention to repentance so you can repent from your sin and be delivered. These signs are the works of His mercy in your life. Like Abimelech, correct your ways. Return that which you stole or took illegally. Seek and make peace with those you have defrauded. God will bless you if you do this. Genesis 20:14, 17 And Abimelech took sheep, and oxen, and menservants, and women servants, and gave them unto Abraham, and restored him Sarah his wife. 17 So Abraham prayed unto God: and God healed Abimelech, and his wife, and his maidservants; and they bare children.

Thought for the day: Learn to take advantage of God’s mercy in good time.
Song for the day: Mercy oh Lord, mercy oh Lord … Baba show me your mercy
Bible reading for the day:
Leviticus 15-17; Matthew 27:1-31

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...
