TOPIC: YOU CANNOT SERVE GOD AND MAMMON.
November Tuesday 10th
Text: Matthew 26:19-24
Key verse: 1 Corinthians 15:19 If in this life only we have hope in Christ, we are of all men most miserable.
Many pastors are into ministry for earthly gain and are only interested in the gifts on the altar instead of striving to raise holy altars for the service of God. They are into ministry for money. The Lord calls them blind leaders, “Ye fools and blind: for whether is greater, the gold, or the temple that sanctifieth the gold?” They have their sets of doctrines. Their doctrine is all about money. They are prosperity preachers itching to siphon money from innocent members of their churches. The amazing thing is that their members who we expect to understand these things never get to understand that they are blind guides of the blind and that both of them will fall into the ditch. A particular minister was holding a crusade in Abuja. He said, “Now I want you to be anointed. Everybody, come with your bottle of anointing oil. Put anointing oil on your right thumb, on your right toe, on your tongue and on your right ear,” and the people foolishly obeyed him. It was incredible! Where was his authority from? Now we can see how Satan has infused darkness into mankind such that human beings are now behaving without reasoning. What is the problem with man that he is not discerning charlatans who masquerade as pastors?
The preacher went ahead to tell them, “Tomorrow, I want to eat your venison so that I can bless you.” He quoted a portion of scripture which says Isaac demanded venison from Esau so that he could bless him. This preacher explained ‘venison’ to mean “That currency that you want God to multiply for you. If you are a man, bring nine of it and if you are a woman, bring seven of it.” Then he gave a testimony that a man brought him a car and he told the man, “I will not thank you. The Lord Himself will be the one to thank you. Within that week, the man got seven cars.” Why do people fall so easily for such cheap deceptions? Surprisingly, the following day, people brought the money. People came with different currencies and he told them, “Just open the money and be fanning yourselves like a big man and a big woman that you are.” If it is not bewitching, how can human beings in their right senses do that? Even the people who were not there with their ‘venison’ were told to come the following day with their own and they still did.
Thought for the day: The love of money is the root of all evil
Song for the day: Lord, You are more precious than silver...
Bible reading for the day: Lamentations 1-2; Hebrews 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...

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...
