DO NOT TURN BACK LIKE ORPAH

DO NOT TURN BACK LIKE ORPAH 
TEXT: Ruth 1: 7-15
Key verse: Ruth 1:15 And she said, Behold, thy sister in law is gone back unto her 
people, and unto her gods: return thou after thy sister in law.

The decision to return to Bethlehem with Naomi was a critical one for her daughters-in-law, Orpah and Ruth. At first, they both resisted Naomi's counsel to go back to Moab and its idols. Naomi then explained further, 'You know I am now an old woman, I cannot say you should wait until I give birth, Ok now let's assume that I have a husband today and I become pregnant this night, do you know it will take the child quite some years to come to at hood to marry you? Are you going to wait until the child comes to 18 years to 20 years to marry you? Are you not going to become too old? I am sorry that God allowed my husband and yours to die. God has treated me badly in this respect. Just go back home.' 

Orpah appeared to understand her after the flesh because Orpah never had the conviction that it was a great privilege that brought her to the family where Jesus shall come out from. She never saw that it was a great privilege that connected her to the land of Israel, the people of Judah and the God of heaven. She never knew it. She kissed her mother-in-law goodbye and went back to her idolatrous country. She married, died and is in hellfire now in eternal regrets! 'Oh! My eyes never opened.' It is so with some that come across HOREMOW.

What a great privilege that the Lord brought you to a ministry like this, to hear the undiluted truth. It is a great privilege that the Lord brought you from churches, where you couldn't know these things, but if your eyes do not open, your coming to HOREMOW will not benefit you. Please pray that it should not be so in your life, because, if you end in hell, you will regret over there why you came to a place where the truth dwells and did not recognize or value it. Therefore pray to God that your heart should open to receive and practice the message of holiness and righteousness taught in HOREMOW.

Thought for the day: What a great privilege that the Lord has brought you to HOREMOW 
for holiness, righteousness and truth
Song for the day: I have decided to follow Jesus (3x), No turning back
Bible reading for the day: Jeremiah 25-26; 2 Timothy 3

Them That Sin, Rebuke Before All

God's blessing shall be following you continually for taking the time to study. Them That Sin, Rebuke Before All   Monday 24th March Text: 1 Timothy 5: 19-22 Key verse: Them that sin rebuke before all, that others also may fear. 1 Timothy 5:20 God wants you to avoid doing evil while saying you want to go to heaven. You may be a member of a worldly church and be saying, “It is my tribal church; if I leave them, they will be angry. I do not want them to be angry.” Is it God you want to make angry by your compromise? You will see the anger of God indeed. It is through the word that you perfect the people, and as a result, the Bible says, “Thou shalt not suffer sin upon your brother. Thou shall reprove him.” Your brother or sister has done a bad thing, and you do not bother. You leave them in their sins. They may do the same to other people. The Lord says, “Correct them.” Do not allow sin to be in them because sin will take them to hell. The Bible says, “Them that sin, rebuke befo...

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...
