TOPIC: COURTSHIP SHOULD BE DONE IN RIGHTEOUSNESS December Friday 4th

Text: Revelation 3:10-11 

Key verse: Matthew 26:41 Watch and pray, that ye enter not into temptation: the spirit indeed is willing, but the flesh is weak. 


Courtship fellowship and discussion should be done in a secure place to avoid temptations that could provoke unclean behaviours. Recommended places include the house of a mature believer, the church building or any appropriate place suggested by the leadership. Supervisory eye is required on them from time to time. Many church altars have been defiled by the wedding ceremony of immoral people. Some intending couples in courtship have even done abortion. They might have done the abortion just a week before coming for the wedding for the church to join them. The minister has been deceived and misused before God. Such is a foolish game before the Lord. The minister is blessing people who are defiled before God. They have committed immorality and have defiled themselves because they were not properly supervised during courtship. 


Courtship being a very delicate period, the discussions must be done in an open place. People may not be there to hear them, but they are exposed enough such that Satan himself will not know what to do to tempt them. But if they are in a secluded place, anything may happen. Let courtship be supervised by a mature Christian to ensure that we wed holy people in the church. The holiness that God is giving to us should not be defiled, for God’s eye is too pure to behold iniquity. He will never be part of such a wedding. Escorts are needed for long journeys by intending couples. All long journeys and visitations to relations should have the escort of a brother or a sister for spiritual security. You know, there are some traditions that say the man has to bring the lady to uncles and relatives: one is in Abuja; another one is in Lagos; another in Calabar; another is in Maidugri. So they keep moving round the country and if they are moving alone, they will not go and come back pure. It is not possible. Is the intended journey mandatory? The marriage committee should look into this type of custom and if it is essential a mature brother or sister should accompany them for spiritual security. It should be someone that will not give room to carelessness between them. 


Thought for the day: Do not give room to tempting situations during courtship.

Song for the day: Yield not to temptation 

Bible reading for the day: Daniel 3-4; 1 John 3

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...

My Spirit Will Follow You To Do My Work.  Sunday 16th November  Text: Acts 16: 9-10 Key verse: Mark 16: 20 “And they went forth and preached everywhere, the Lord working with them and confirming the word with signs following, Amen.” Continuation of revelation of Brother Dieudonne:  The Lord said, “I am here to gather My people before the trumpet sounds. My Father will order the angels to sound the trumpet. Be ready! Do My work. Gather My people.” When He said that, He insisted and said, “I am gathering My people with My Spirit. When My Spirit enters, if you obey My word, My Spirit will follow you to do My work. People will listen to you and follow you. They are My chosen.

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...
