FOCUS ON JESUS, NOT MIRACLE SUBSTANCES

 For taking your time to study remain blessed. 

TOPIC: FOCUS ON JESUS, NOT MIRACLE SUBSTANCES September Tuesday 15th

TEXT: Isaiah 30:1-3

KEY VERSE: Isaiah 31:1 Woe to them that go down to Egypt for help; and stay on horses, and trust in chariots, because they are many; and in horsemen, because they are very strong; but they look not unto the Holy One of Israel, neither seek the LORD! 


The physical can destroy the spiritual if we become careless. The hunger for miracle has made many people to seek after physical objects of miracle to the destruction of their soul.  Consider aprons and handkerchiefs taken from Paul’s body for miracle, which are now being replicated in many churches. Were these objects also taken from Peter’s body or John’s? It was only Paul in Christian history, not even from Jesus during His earthly ministry. Only in Paul did the Holy Ghost manifest that power for a definite purpose of His, to cause the people to believe in Christ. Handkerchiefs and aprons were taken from the body of Paul to the sick and they were healed. This happened for a season and ended. It could be just one day or one week or it heightened and then ceased. It did not continue in his ministry. Timothy worked closely with Paul as a disciple, but was he healing with handkerchiefs, or was he distributing aprons?  No, because he would not assume such a unique miracle to be an everyday occurrence.


If this be so, how did it happen that the churches today and the presiding ministers are flaunting handkerchiefs and aprons and telling their members that they will do miracles? From where did they get that teaching? From one witness, thou shall not establish a matter but from the mouth of two or three. Apart from Paul, who else used handkerchiefs and aprons that you are now using it as a standard in the church? Why don’t they also gather their members at the sea and say they are going to cause God to divide it so that people can cross on dry ground? If it is a normal thing, why don’t they try to also do that? Of course they won’t do that because their deceit will be found out too quickly. The spirit that motivates this kind of thing is of the devil. It is not the Spirit of Christ because that is an abnormality. He that enters not through the door but climbs in through the window, the same is a thief and a robber. The sheep will never hear him. He is a hireling and that is the devil. Those promoting and distributing handkerchiefs and aprons are not doing it by the Spirit of the great God of heaven because they don’t have the Bible as their authority. 


Thought for the day: The name of Jesus is enough for you. 

Song for the day: There is power mighty in the blood……

Bible reading for the day: Proverbs 28-29; 2 Corinthians 7

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...

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...
