TOPIC: MY MEMBERSHIP AND MINISTRY IN DEEPER LIFE BIBLE CHURCH  Thursday October 10
TEXT: 2 Corinthians 4: 1, 2
KEY VERSE: 1 Corinthians 4: 1 “Let a man so account of us, as of the ministers of Christ, and stewards of the mysteries of God.”
I became a member of Deeper Life Bible Church in 1983 when I was twenty one years old having just completed my secondary education. I got restored to faith, having been born again sometimes in 1977. In Deeper Life I learnt much about God and His holiness and got sanctified and baptized with the Holy Spirit. I was zealous and committed to God and to righteous living. I hungered and thirsted after God and His fullness and desire to serve Him in full time capacity, except for my academic pursuit. For the period of twenty six years I had the grace to serve the Lord from the lowest to the highest one under the leadership of the General Superintendent. I served as: a House Leader, Zonal Leader, Location Pastor, District Coordinator, Campus General Coordinator, Regional Overseer, State Overseer and National Overseer. My ministerial Service in Deeper Life was from 1983 to 2009.
I served as a Pastor in five different states in Nigeria and one other Country besides Nigeria. In my twenty six years of Christian Ministry within the Deeper Life, my conscience bears me witness I was righteous and holy both in life and ministry. I was never at any time found in sin both in private and in secret. None of the members and workers of the churches I pastured, man or woman, for the twenty six years in Deeper Life, can rightly accuse me of sin against God, in private or public. I worked among Pastors and overseers. I speak with the same confidence that none of them can rightly say, “Pastor Paul Rika is not a minister of righteousness”. This is the lifestyle I continue in to this day of writing as one who has found favour to be the International Director of Holiness Revival Movement Worldwide after about nine years of leaving Deeper Life Bible Church by the will of God.
Now, I have brought all these to you to say, “I Pastor Paul Rika, have kept myself and family in God’s love and purity, being confident in this that no man on earth can truly give account of sin and rebellion against God and against the Holy Scripture in my life. I am very confident that nobody anywhere can rise up and truly and say that Pastor Rika did evil or that I found him committing sin.
Thought for the day: It pays to serve Jesus
Song for the day: Give me oil in my lamp, keep me burning
Bible reading for the day:
Isaiah 43-44; Colossians 2

Them That Sin, Rebuke Before All

God's blessing shall be following you continually for taking the time to study. Them That Sin, Rebuke Before All   Monday 24th March Text: 1 Timothy 5: 19-22 Key verse: Them that sin rebuke before all, that others also may fear. 1 Timothy 5:20 God wants you to avoid doing evil while saying you want to go to heaven. You may be a member of a worldly church and be saying, “It is my tribal church; if I leave them, they will be angry. I do not want them to be angry.” Is it God you want to make angry by your compromise? You will see the anger of God indeed. It is through the word that you perfect the people, and as a result, the Bible says, “Thou shalt not suffer sin upon your brother. Thou shall reprove him.” Your brother or sister has done a bad thing, and you do not bother. You leave them in their sins. They may do the same to other people. The Lord says, “Correct them.” Do not allow sin to be in them because sin will take them to hell. The Bible says, “Them that sin, rebuke befo...

For taking your time to study remain blessed. FACTS TO BE UNDERSTOOD ON REVELATION MESSAGES WEDNESDAY JANUARY 11 TEXT: NUMBERS 12: 4-8. Key verse: "To the law and to the testimony: if they speak not according to this word, it is because there is no light in them" Isaiah 8:20. God has given revelations to many in our days and He is still in the business of doing that. The choice of these messengers is His sovereign will. Some of these revelations are written in books for all to read and some are shared verbally. There are scriptural facts to be understood on these revelation messages. They follow the pattern of scriptural revelations in the Holy Bible. Some are given in plain, simple and direct language, while some are given in pictorial language and figures of speech. The recipient of the revelation may be an ignorant person whose understanding is unfruitful, hence, he may not be capable to interpret the revelation received. Except God gives the grace of interpretation to ...
