TAKE TIME TO NOURISH YOUR SOUL.

 For taking your time to study remain blessed. 

TOPIC: TAKE TIME TO NOURISH YOUR SOUL. August Tuesday 18th

TEXT: Psalm 119:9-11

KEY VERSE: Song of Solomon 2:15 Take us the foxes, the little foxes, that spoil the vines:  for our vines have tender grapes.


Today’s key verse says, “Take us the foxes, the little foxes, that spoil the vines:  for our vines have tender grapes.” Foxes have taken over your vineyard. Nobody is there to care for your vineyard. Little by little, your tender grapes are being spoilt. Your tender, fresh Christian life is being spoilt. Your spiritual peace is now under threat because it is not cared for. You have not shaved your beard for some time and it is disfiguring your face. What happened? You don’t have time. 


You have not cut your fingernails and we can see dirt stuck in it. People are asking, “What happened to this man? Why is he like this?” It is because you don’t have time. Foxes have taken over your life. Little, little foxes, and the tenderness of your Christian life is being destroyed. Anger has now come in. Why not? It is the natural law! Anger came because the soul was not being fed. Lust also came in. They are the foxes. Why will it not come? You are dealing with women around you. What would keep you from lust? 


What kept Peter from sinking in the sea when Jesus bid him to come? It was because his eyes were fixed on Jesus. But when his eyes shifted away from Jesus, what happened to him? It is a natural law. He began to sink. The lust that is coming into your heart is a natural law. It is because you don’t care for your heart. You are not giving the heart what is required to keep it clean. Thy word have I hid in my heart that I might not sin against Thee (Psalm 119:11). Did you take time to put any word there? Did you have the time? When you woke up did you read the Bible? 


Those messages that you used to hear before, are you still listening to them? It is a natural law. When dry season sets into your life, the stones in the river will now be seen, because rains have stopped and the waters have dried up. Your own rain has stopped, that is why the dryness you are feeling now takes over. Little foxes, little foxes, little foxes! You are not strong, but you are still actively working. Even when Saul left the Lord, was he not still king? You are still serving. The gifts of God are without repentance. You are still demonstrating gifts but pride has come in such that even you are surprised. 


Thought for the day: If you love your soul, take care of it. 

Song for the day: In my life, Lord be glorified……

Bible reading for the day: Psalm 109-111; Romans 16

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...
