PREPARE YOURSELF FOR THE RETURN OF JESUS

For taking your time to study remain blessed.

FRIDAY 27 AUGUST
PREPARE YOURSELF FOR THE RETURN OF JESUS
TEXT:  ACTS 1:9-11 
Key verse:  Revelation 22:12 Behold I come quickly, and My reward is with me, 
to give every man according as his work shall be.

Jesus promised to return for His people to take them home in rapture. The signs of His return are revealed to us through various happenings and revelations. Heaven is fully prepared for this great spiritual event. When we say Jesus is coming back to the world, the question arises, “Where is He now?” He is in heaven, the abode of the true God, the place of everlasting life. When we say, Jesus is coming to the earth again, the question also arises: “Has He been in the earth before?” Yes, He came physically in the earthly human body. “Who is He?” He is the Lord. What did He come to do in His first coming? He came as:
· A Saviour to save us from our sin.
· A Lamb of God to sacrifice Himself for our salvation.
· A Mediator to reconcile us to God.
· Our Righteousness to put us in right standing with God
· Our Deliverer to destroy the works of Satan in our lives and set us free.
· Our Fullness to give us abundant life 
· Our Restoration to restore us to the image of God.
After Jesus Christ accomplished His mission, he went back to heaven and gave us the following: (a) His Word (b) His Grace (c) His Church (d) His Commission.
Jesus is almost here and all eyes shall see him. What is the mission of His return? He is coming to:
· Rapture His saints to be with Him in His Father's house.  
· Judge the sinful world and condemn sinners to everlasting fire.  
· Cast Satan and his demons from among men and confine them to everlasting fire.
· Establish an everlasting kingdom where righteousness reigns. 
· Give eternal rewards and comfort to His people.
We are preparing for His coming as people preparing for a wedding. The preparation is both personal and congregational. Preparing for His coming requires:
· A Ready Spirit: Go beyond the normal, the average as seen in other Christians because the nearer His coming, the fiercer the battle. Satan is waging war against man, the church and the world.
· Constant Study of God's Word: to know the truth and be free from sin and Satan. 
· Righteousness & Holy Living: through faith in Christ and constant prayer for God's sufficient grace.
· Evangelism and Soul Winning: to bring sinners to Christ by making them turn away from sin and confess Jesus Christ and thereafter live a holy life.

Thought for the day: Are you prepared to meet your groom?
Song for the day: He's coming back again … he went away and promised
Bible reading for the day: Psalm 132-135; 
1 Corinthians 8

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...
