THE THE THE USE OF MEDICATION IS NOT WRONG 

TEXT: JEREMIAH 8: 21-22

Key verse: Jeremiah 8:22 Is there no balm in Gilead; is there no physician there? 

why then is not the health of the daughter of my people recovered?


May God bathe His people with answers left and right, front and back, up and down, in Jesus name Amen. All cases of barrenness and delay in childbearing should be taken to the Lord in prayer. It is not wrong to seek medical assistance or to use medication, both conventional and herbal, but you must not adopt evil alternatives of seeking after wizards for help. Do not fall into the hands of some people who claim that believers must not use medication. 


Such are deadly churches because many die prematurely and go to hell from those places. Professing faith in God for healing will not remove the unchangeable requirement of holiness and righteousness for entrance into heaven. These people have faults in their lives and are deprived of taking medicines that God made available to humanity in His imparted wisdom. Some even claim that it is a sin to take drugs. That is untrue and unscriptural.

Do people trek from their villages, towns, States and Nations to the Holiness Campground in Abuja to attend Conferences there? No. Usually, they come by vehicles, trains, aeroplanes and other forms of automobiles. It is God that gave man the wisdom and knowledge to invent easier and faster means of transportation. Will it be wise to teach that we should reject the use of aeroplanes and vehicles and travel by faith, maybe to pray that God should transport us supernaturally to the Campground the same way Philip the evangelist was transported to Azotus, not at all! We have to obey the law of mobility. 


Similarly, nothing stops you from using medication that God has graciously provided for the good of humanity. Somebody may suggest a herbal remedy for treating malaria by drinking boiled extract from leaves of mango, guava and lemon. Again someone recommended the use of lime, garlic and ginger to clear offensive body odour. There is no sin in this.  


Thought for the day: God graciously provided medicines for good of humanity. 

Song for the day: Jehovah touched my life with His hands, my life changed…

Bible reading for the day: Ezekiel 29-31; James 5

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...
