TOPIC: IDOLIZING MARY IS A GRAVE SIN                             April Tuesday 14th
Text: Luke 1:26-38
Key Verse: Exodus 20:3 Thou shalt have no other gods before me.

The fact that angel Gabriel saluted Mary as blessed among women has made many to ascribe adoration, honour and worship to her. However, this erroneous practice by misguided people should not take away the wonderful virtues that believers can observe in her life. Although our primary attention is unto the Lord Jesus which actually matters, we should also know that there are things to learn from the saints of the Bible.

Mary who was the mother of Jesus Christ was a saint, and not a sinner. She was godly, righteous, pure and holy. But sadly, she has often been misunderstood as a goddess. Many people still find it difficult to understand the personality of Mary and have therefore idolized her as a goddess. This misperception has led many to believe in worshipping her on a daily basis with the understanding that they will receive answers to their prayers. From the scriptural examination above, we have seen how Mary found favour with God the Father, to be the mother of Jesus Christ, the Saviour of mankind. This favour has often been misinterpreted by some sects who call her mother of God. Jesus Christ has a dual personality being both God and Man. Mary was only the mother of Jesus Christ after the flesh (as Man), not as God. God cannot have a mother!

The heathen idol worshippers that worship the female gods have demonically taken it farther by turning Mary into a female goddess thereby forgetting the main object of worship, Jesus Christ. They worship her as the mother of God. These worshippers are doing so after the spirit of paganism and their action is equivalent to committing idolatry (Exodus 20:1-5).  They do this in ignorance to the detriment and damnation of their souls in hell.

Thought for the day: Those who worship Mary are into idolatry.
Song for the day: Jesus only is our message
Bible reading for the day:
1 Samuel 15-16; Luke 14:23-35

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...
