WE SHALL BE LIKE HIM

FOR. TAKING YOUR TIME TO STUDY THE WORD OF GOD REMAIN BLESSED. 

TOPIC: WE SHALL BE LIKE HIM  

DATE: MONDAY JUNE 21

TEXT: 1 JOHN 3:1-9

Key verse: 1 John 3:3 “And every man that hath this hope in him purifieth himself, even as he is pure.”

As the saints shall be resurrecting from the grave they shall be coming out with new bodies, because when one dies, the body that decays is going to transform to another body. For instance, when you plant corn in the ground, it dies before the new body comes up.

 The new body that comes up looks different from the seed that was planted and does not look alike with it. This is because it will become a new thing altogether. In this case, the Lord God almighty determines the body to give new corn. You sow corn as a grain but when it germinates and grows up, you can see a different crop altogether. 

The new crop looks many times bigger than the grain and is even more beautiful. This is a surprise because a grain that one can easily step on could be transformed into a wonderful plant to be admired. After it is planted, it germinates and grows even taller than the farmer that planted it.

 If God can give such glorious bodies to mere grains, how much more glorious will be the bodies of resurrected saints? Their bodies will not be ugly. You might have been told that you are ugly but don’t bother about that. You shall wear a glorious body after the resurrection. 

The least of the saints that have died and entered heaven is very marvellous in their glorious bodies. If one of them is sent to the earth now as they are in heaven, even now that they are yet to be glorified with their resurrection body, but because of the glory they carry, you will think this is God himself. 

We shall see Him as He is. We shall be like Him. Those who have died will take new bodies at their resurrection. Then we who are alive will be waiting for them to rise first. After they have risen and are going to heaven, then a sudden miracle will take place. 

By the power of the Holy Spirit that is in you. God who is the quickening Spirit will quicken your body and you will be suddenly transformed as a sort of metamorphosis. You will be suddenly transformed into a glorious body, and you will be lifted to the sky by the Spirit. 

Thought for the day: The dead in Christ shall rise first. 

Song for the day: On the resurrection morning, remember me O Lord….

Bible reading for the day: 
Esther 1-3; Acts 5:1-16   #Horemow

HOLINESS REVIVAL MOVEMENT WORLDWIDE Daily Devotional EVERY WORD OF GOD FOR DAILY LIVING  _BY_ *PASTOR PAUL RIKA*  Int'l Director        (Holiness Revival Movement Worldwide) THURSDAY NOVEMBER 1 , 2018  _TOPIC:_    *YOU WILL SUCCEED AS CHRIST DID BY PRAYER*           TEXT: John 16: 23-24. KEY VERSE: It came to pass, as He was praying in a certain place, when He ceased, one of His disciples said, Lord, teach us how to pray as John taught his disciples. Luke 11: 1. When Jesus Christ came to us in the flesh, He went into the business of prayer because He was promoting the attribute of God as a prayer-answering God. He would not render that attribute idle or redundant. Nobody knew how John did it, but Jesus reveals here that the success you saw in the ministry of John the Baptist, the victory you saw in his ministry, is because he was a prayer man. John so much valued prayer. He saw the essentials of pr...
