TOPIC: LIVE BY THE WORD, NOT THE FABLES OF MEN
TEXT: 1 Timothy 1:4-7
KEY VERSE: 1Timothy 1:4  Neither give heed to fables and endless genealogies, which minister questions, rather than godly edifying which is in faith: so do.

Colossians 2: 6-8 “As ye have therefore received Christ Jesus the Lord, so walk ye in Him: Rooted and built up in Him, and stablished in the faith, as ye have been taught, abounding therein with thanksgiving.  Beware lest any man spoil you through philosophy and vain deceit, after the tradition of men, after the rudiments of the world, and not after Christ.” Jesus is our Captain; the Captain of our salvation leading us to heaven. Actually, you are also given the responsibility to lead yourself to heaven. That is why the instruction and counsel in the above text is given to you. You are to choose the way you manage yourself having received Jesus as your Lord. You are to continue with Him; get rooted in Him; be established in the faith and in the word of God as you have been taught by faithful ministers of God. You will not live by the doctrines of Nicolaitan and heretic pastors who masquerade as ministers of light (2 Cor. 11:13-15). Paul gave the instruction because he knew himself. He had the word of life and he was sent. He said in Galatians 1:15-16, “But when it pleased God, who separated me from my mother's womb, and called me by His grace, To reveal His Son in me, that I might preach Him among the heathen; immediately I conferred not with flesh and blood.” Listen to the messages taught by true ministers of the gospel and abound in them with thanksgiving.

The teachings and lifestyle of true ministers of the gospel are testimonies worthy of emulation for holy living. 1Corinthians 11:1 Be ye followers of me, even as I also am of Christ. Before you came to Holiness Revival Movement, you probably never knew most of these truths. God in His mercy brought you to this light and has given you the knowledge of His truth and your eyes opened to original Christianity. Why then would you allow the power of tradition to still get hold of you such that you will pay more attention to traditions of the church than following the light of God that has be shone into your life? Break yourself from the bondage of denominationalism and focus on heaven!

Thought for the day: Let the word of God guide your life, not traditions of men.
Song for the day:    I not moved by what I see … what I hear … only moved by word of God.
Bible reading for the day:
Psalms 90-92; Romans 11:1-21

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...
