LEARNING HUMILITY FROM TIMOTHY

For taking your time to study remain blessed.
Topic: LEARNING HUMILITY FROM TIMOTHY June Tuesday 16th
Text: Philippians 2:19-23
Key verse: “Mark 8:36-37 For what shall it profit a man, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul? Or what shall a man give in exchange for his soul?”
Timothy with Paul was a son to his father. He was not comparing himself with Paul. He was not comparing his anointing with Paul’s. He was not comparing his popularity with Paul’s. He was not comparing his giftedness with Paul. He was not comparing his calling with Paul’s. No! He was a son to his father. These are the kind of people the Lord is looking for. People the Lord will raise up that will be subject to authority and dead to self for Jesus submitted to Joseph His father until he was thirty years. Joseph was not a minister anyway, but he was head in all family matters. Why did Jesus not jump out of that place and say, “No, I can’t stay here?” Submission was part of the work of God; part of the nature of God; that you submit under another. Aaron submitted to Moses and for that reason he got heaven. The most important thing for you is that you go to heaven. It is not the popularity of your name. It is not that you should be known everywhere.
Therefore, young boy, young girl, you know how to run but you don’t know how to hide, for wisdom is with the ancients. When you see a man with grey hair, that is wisdom. When Daniel talked about seeing the Ancient of days he said his hair was as white as wool. John said the same thing in the book of Revelation. When Jesus appeared to him His hair was as white as wool. That talks of wisdom. Wisdom is with the ancient but children know how to run. We are not training youths to just go and show forth themselves. To go and brag. To go and make noise and scatter things. They will kill you very fast. You will lose your life because pride goes before a fall and a haughty spirit before destruction.
Thought for the day: Humility will advance you in life but pride will bring you down.
Song for the day: Lord I want to be like Jesus inner my heart
Bible reading for the day: Nehemiah 1-3; Acts 2:1-13

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...

HOLINESS REVIVAL MOVEMENT WORLDWIDE HOREMOW DAILY DEVOTIONAL BY PASTOR PAUL RIKA INTERNATIONAL DIRECTOR. DATE: WEDNESDAY JULY 15, 2026. TOPIC: HOW TO PRAY  TEXT: JOHN 14:12-14 12. Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on Me, the works that I do shall he do also; and greater works than these shall he do; because I go unto My Father.  13.

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...
