For taking your time to study remain blessed.
August Friday 30th
TOPIC: PROPHECY HAS GRADUATION
TEXT: Isaiah 9:6-7
KEY VERSE: Habakkuk 2:3 For the vision is yet for an appointed time, but at the end it shall speak, and not lie: though it tarry, wait for it; because it will surely come, it will not tarry.

If you don’t understand Biblical prophecy, its fulfilment will be unfolding before your eyes and you would not know the stage of God’s intervention in the world.  Unless you are observant, you may miss out on major prophecies. Let me give you an illustration for better understanding. “Unto us a Child is born, unto us a Son is given and the government shall be upon His shoulders.” This is a prophecy in Isaiah 9:6. There are three hour-hand prophecies here (underlined). But within this hour hands are the minute hands. “Unto us a Child is born;” where was He born (Bethlehem) - that prophecy did not reveal minutes hand; you have to go and get the minute somewhere else. After He was born He was dedicated then taken to Egypt because Herod was after Him, “that it might be fulfilled.” That again is prophecy. Then He came back but didn’t go to Bethlehem but to Nazareth “that it might be fulfilled.” When He started His ministry, He went to Capernaum, the land of Zebulun and Naphtali “that it might be fulfilled.” He healed, was arrested and crucified, then the hour hand rang loudly … “A Son is given.” You can see that between “A Child is born” and “A Son is given” there were prophecies.

When He was nailed, it was the hour hand of prophecy: “The Son is given” and after that the minute started again: He resurrected, He ascended, the Holy Ghost came down, the church was born, the church began to expand, those are prophecies. Israel in diaspora, Jerusalem destroyed, Israel scattered, these are all prophecies. What are we waiting for now, what is the hour hand? “And the government shall be upon His shoulder.” Is the government upon His shoulder now? No, because we have not reached there. But between “The Child is born” and “The Son is given” and “The government will be upon His shoulder” we have prophecies. Now the question is this, if you don’t know how to arrange prophecies, how will you know divine timing? You will not know the time between the Son is given and the government will be upon His shoulder and when the government is very close to be upon His shoulder. May the Lord awaken your consciousness and give you understanding of prophecies so that you don’t miss the government of Jesus, in Jesus name. 

Thought for the day:  Get understanding of prophecy and key into divine agenda.   
Song for the day:    Are you in the number? [3x] saved by grace.......
Bible reading for the day:
Psalms 142-144; 1 Corinthians 10:14-33. #Horemow.

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...
