December Wednesday 4th
QUESTION AND ANSWER SERIES (Use Of Laptop or iPad For Preaching)
TEXT: Nehemiah 8: 1-5
KEY VERSE: Nehemiah 8:5 “And Ezra opened the book in the sight of all the people; (for he was above all the people;) and when he opened it, all the people stood up:”
QUESTION: Is it right as a man of God to carry laptop or phone on the pulpit instead of Bible to use it and preach?
ANSWER: Every preacher should study his environment. There is an environment that you can do that and nobody will be offended. It is not seen as a sin to you but there is an environment that you can do that and the people will be offended at you and you have done the wrong thing. So know your environment. Of itself there is no sin there but if you come to a congregation of ignorant people who do not know that there is no sin there and you are pricking their conscience, you are making them to commit sin and you are not working in wisdom and understanding you sin.
However, when you go to a congregation where the people are enlightened and peaceful. Some in the congregation may even ask, “Oh! Can I have a look at your laptop? What software do you use for Bible studies?  Oh that your software how did you get it?” That is an enlightened community. They will not feel that you are committing sin. We need to understand this because whether you like it or not between 5-10 years to come, hard copy Bibles may be replaced by electronic soft copies. That is because of advancement in knowledge and technology all over the world.
You may even discover that Bible publishers and printers might even prefer the electronic softcopies of the Bible. What you will be seeing in the market would be a different thing from the traditional products. You will just have to adjust and also buy them. You know we were using audio cassettes for messages some years ago, but can you readily find it to buy in the market now? They have been systematically phased out by the compact disc (CD) technology. It has now become DVDs, CDs. Yet more developments and discoveries are still ahead of humanity, for the Bible says that in the end times, knowledge shall increase.
Thought for the day: Every preacher should study his environment.
Song for the day: He is everything, Jesus is everything to me………..
Bible reading for the day:
Daniel 3-4; 1 John 3

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...
