THE GOD WE SERVE ANSWERS PRAYERS 
TEXT:  LUKE 1: 5-17
Key verse: Jeremiah 33: 3 Call unto me, and I will answer thee, and shew 
thee great and mighty things, which thou knowest not.

Zechariah was a faithful priest of God, a favored man of God because the lot fell on him to enter the holy place in the temple to sacrifice unto the Lord. He was a holy man. Elizabeth and her husband Zechariah had no child because Elizabeth was barren. The Lord allowed this condition in His divine plan. They were both righteous before God, walking in all the commandments and ordinances of the Lord blamelessly. Their childlessness was not as a result of sinful life but was an act of God designed for His glory. The reason for childlessness was due to the wife's barrenness, but in some other cases it could be from the man or from both. Sometimes there is no medically known cause. 

There are lessons to learn from the lives of Zechariah and Elizabeth. They have been praying to God from the beginning of their problem but God was silent. It took a long time until they were both old and stricken in years. You may have prayed repeatedly on some challenges, trusted in God for answers and even asked others to pray along with you but the situation remained the same, such that you are tempted to give up and accept the situation. Do not think that God has refused to answer because of your sins or that God is judging you. Do not think it is because God hates you. Be informed that God created you for His purpose and for you to do His will and pleasure. It is not for yourself, else you will not accept suffering, pain, shame and delay for His name's sake. God created you for His pleasure and can decide to put you in any condition He wants that will glorify Him. If you know this, you will be peaceful in your life. 

God answered the prayers of Zechariah and Elizabeth after many years. I pray that the door of answered prayers be opened to you now, to receive answers to your prayers of many years in the name of Jesus. Recover your faith that you threw into the dustbin, thinking that it was no longer useful. The God of your life has remembered you. The God of HOREMOW has remembered your life.

Thought for the day: May God bathe His people with answers to prayers
Song for the day: O yes He answers prayers (2x), the God we serve answers….
Bible reading for the day: Jeremiah 7-8; 1 Timothy 2

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...
