 For taking your time to study remain blessed.


TOPIC: PERSONAL DISCIPLINE IS REQUIRED IN CHRISTIAN LIFE AND MINISTRY December Tuesday 8th
Text: 1 Corinthians 9:24-27
Key verse: 1 Corinthians 6:12 All things are lawful unto me, but all things are not expedient: all things are lawful for me, but I will not be brought under the power of any. 

If you fail to meditate on the word of God sins will creep into your life. You need to profit from the ministry of true men of God. Listen to messages that will edify you. Participate diligently in HOREMOW assignments that the Lord has given us in daily prayers, Bible reading with commentaries, listening to HOREMOW messages and reading the prescribed books. Jesus said, “Sanctify them by the word, thy word is truth.” Ask it shall be given, seek and ye shall find. When you ask your Father for righteousness, He will give it to you. Bring every sin (lust, anger, greed etc.) that is disturbing you to God. Take time to pray to God to purify you. Pray for those that often provoke you. Prayer will save and strengthen you. God says, “Call upon me in the days of trouble: I will deliver thee and thou shall glorify Me.” You will deliver yourself through your personal prayer. Do not get to the point of preaching without examining the righteousness of your life. Paul checked himself so that after preaching to others he will not be a castaway. Add patience and knowledge to your life. Subject your life to control. Do not do anything in excess even in your dressing. Practice kindness. Divine discipline is required in your life.

Hebrews 12:5 “And ye have forgotten the exhortation which speaketh unto you as, unto children, my son despise not the chastening of the Lord, nor faint when thou art rebuked of him”. God allowed the children of Israel to take a long way because He wanted to prove them. All that God allowed into your life as challenges are to prove you. Strive to pass the test. He that feareth is not made perfect in love. If you fear any person; whether it is your General Overseer or husband or wife or boss etc., holiness will be impossible. Holiness is only possible when you take God and His word above every man’s voice. The Bible shows that serving God in righteousness and holiness is possible to them that surrender to Him and live for Him. These are the ones that develop faith in God and serve Him in spirit and in truth, thereby fulfilling the desire of God. If you are faithful and do it right, nobody will complain about you. Where people say contrary things and it is proved before man and God to be persecution, God will comfort and reward you.

Thought for the day: An undisciplined Christian cannot go far with God.
Song for the day: I am a soldier in the army (3x) I am a soldier in the army of the Lord
Bible reading for the day: Daniel 11-12; 3 John

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...
