REMAIN BLESSED AS YOU TAKE YOUR TIME TO STUDY THE WORD OF GOD. SATURDAY 1st, JANUARY TESTIMONY OF ANGELIC VISITATION TEXT: 2 Corinthians 1: 3 - 5                                                        KEY VERSE: Romans 8: 18 “For I reckon that the sufferings of this present time are not worthy to be compared with the glory which shall be revealed in us.” What I am about to narrate to you is the visitation of the Angels to me. This happened about midnight. In my dream I saw three angels standing in the bedroom with a massage for me from the Lord Jesus Christ, before this time, Satan had been working against me by raising ungodly men to destabilize, discourage and disqualify me in ministry. After his many failed attempts, God sent these angels to minister to me to comfort me and assure me of the future.  2 Corinthians 1:3-5 3 Blessed be God, even...

REMAIN BLESSED AS YOU TAKE YOUR TIME TO STUDY. FRIDAY 31 DECEMBER APPLY WISDOM IN SOUL-WINNING TO AVOID SATAN’S PITFALL  TEXT: JUDE 21-25 Key verse: Jude 23 And others save with fear, pulling them out of the fire;  hating even the garment spotted by the flesh. Be careful even as you do evangelism. Be watchful if you are evangelizing a lady. We have not said you should not evangelize or preach to the opposite sex, but be watchful. Let not your garment become spotted by that man or woman. Watch! Someone says, “If you are eating with the devil you should eat with a long spoon,” but we say, “Don't eat at all with Satan.” Why must you eat with Satan? Be very careful when you are preaching to a sinner of the opposite sex. Make sure your preaching does not lead to evil. If you see that the person is luring you into sin, avoid him and save yourself. Why must two of you perish? The Bible tells us we should always pray. Always talk to God to deliver you from evil and to protect you. Pra...

REMAIN BLESSED AS YOU TAKE YOUR TIME TO STUDY THE WORD OF GOD. THURSDAY 30 DECEMBER THE LORD IS REMOVING UNCIRCUMCISED LEADERS TEXT: NUMBERS 14: 26-31  Key verse: Matthew 20:16 So the last shall be first, and the first last: for many  be called, but few chosen. Completion of the angelic message: The Lord continued. “Because of this mandate given to you, I am removing around you the uncircumcised leaders. I am going to fill their place with righteous and holy leaders from various nations and races.” Truly I had pondered if any minister has suffered like this. People I loved, cherished and lived peacefully with suddenly began to speak evil against me to my shock. Well, it happens in politics, but is limited to their countries, whereas mine is international! Yes, some ministers may have suffered these things, but that was before the advent of the Internet, so their sufferings were limited. Maybe through letters or newspapers for a limited time, but my own is in the world of the I...

REMAIN BLESSED AS YOU TAKE YOUR TIME TO STUDY THE WORD OF GOD. MONDAY 27 DECEMBER  EVIL EFFECTS OF  IMMORALITY 2  TEXT: PROVERBS 6:24-29 Key verse:  Proverbs 6:28 Can one go upon hot coals, and his feet not be burned? Immorality in a church hinders sinners from repenting and being converted. They justify themselves now and say we are all the same. Sometimes, even these sins that are committed by so-called believers are worse than the ones that sinners commit. So sinners become “righteous”. They are the ones coming to comfort you. Oh! You committed immorality. You this flesh! It is God that will help us. You form a union with sinners and they are now encouraging you in the union. Instead of being convicted, they come to sympathize with you. Oh! We should cry. Let our hearts melt. Why are our brothers disappointing God? Why are our sisters just disappointing Jesus? Let it melt our hearts.  There is the possibility of contracting gonorrhoea, syphilis, venereal dise...

REMAIN BLESSED AS YOU TAKE YOUR TIME TO STUDY THE WORD OF GOD, AMEN DATE:  SATURDAY 25th DECEMBER TOPIC: EMULATE GOD'S PURE LOVE FOR MAN TEXT: ROMANS 5: 1-8 Key verse: John 3:16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. God's pure love is the reason for the season. The greatest love you can show at this festive season is to embrace and emulate God's pure love in salving man from sin, Satan and sicknesses. Pure love is based on the word of God. Love people and seek their welfare because God says so, not for selfish reasons.  Pure love comes with feelings of sympathy as you put yourself in that person's situation and feel it. If someone has not eaten for days will you not feel it? Suppose it was you. Suppose someone is down with the sickness. You feel for him knowing what it feels like. Again, in cases of bereavement, you empathize with the bereaved and offer assistance to ...

REMAIN BLESSED AS YOU TAKE YOUR TIME TO STUDY THE WORD OF GOD AMEN. DATE: FRIDAY 24th DECEMBER TOPIC: THE ETERNAL DOOM OF A SECRET SINNER TEXT: EZEKIEL 18:26-32 Key verse: “Therefore I will judge you, O house of Israel, every one according to his ways, saith the Lord GOD. Repent, and turn yourselves from all your transgressions; so iniquity shall not be your ruin.” (Ezekiel 18:30). Today we shall examine the eternal state of a once committed brother who died in secret sin as shown by Divine revelation to a brother: 'What I saw with my two eyes in hell broke my heart and I wept. I cannot describe hell as a mortal man. If anyone gets there, he will tell it better. In hell, I heard the groaning of the damned. This was the second time I went to hell. I heard people crying and confessing the sins they refused to confess here on earth. Many pastors are in hell. Many ministers of the gospel are in hell. Atheists and various categories of people are in hell. No tongue can tell the...

 REMAIN BLESSED AS YOU TAKE YOUR TIME TO STUDY THE WORD OF GOD.   DATE SATURDAY 18th DECEMBER TOPIC: PASTOR PAUL RIKA IS THE LAST DAY REVIVALIST TEXT: 2 Corinthians 11:16-33  Key verse: 2 Corinthians 11: 31 The God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, which is  blessed for evermore, knoweth that I lie not. Continuation of the angelic message: My wife, Sister Linda Paul Rika said, “I started hearing the voice of the Lord saying, “The people you are going to be leader over them are older and senior to you both in the faith and in the ministry. For men not to challenge God for choosing a younger person to lead them, I have decided to run you through this way and these things so that they can see your credentials in knowledge, wisdom, works and suffering. They will see despite the persecutions and sufferings you received for My gospel, you continued My work steadfastly.  This is because God has given you the mandate. You are the last day revivalist to bring sal...

REMAIN BLESSED AS YOU TAKE YOUR TIME TO STUDY THE WORD OF GOD. FRIDAY 17th DECEMBER DO NOT PROMOTE ENEMIES OF GOD TEXT: 2 CORINTHIANS 11:13-15 Key verse: “If there come any unto you, and bring not this doctrine, receive him not into your house, neither bid him God speed.” 2 John 10 The false Prophets, Evangelists, Pastors, and Teachers are all false ministers. They are looking for money to spread their deceit and death among humanity. Each group is looking for money. The Bible speaks of them as follows: • They are false ministers, destitute of the truth of Christ. • They are deceitful ministers, who glory in their ability to make people believe their lies. • They are ministers of Satan, appointed by him and sent to distort the gospel of Christ and damn the souls of men. • They camouflage as ministers who preach righteousness. • They and their followers shall end up in destruction. The above ministers are soliciting for funds for their work. They want tithes and offering to be paid to...

REMAIN BLESSED AS YOU TAKE  YOUR TIME TO STUDY THE WORD OF GOD DATE: THURSDAY 16th DECEMBER TOPIC: GOD WORKS IN MYSTERIOUS WAYS TEXT: RUTH 4: 13-17 Key verse:  Ruth 4:13 So Boaz took Ruth, and she was his wife: and when he went in unto her, the Lord gave her conception, and she bares a son. God works in mysterious ways to perform His wonders. Why don't you sit still and let God connect things to work out a life partner for you? Even if you decide not to marry again, allow God to work out a future for your life?  God will work out satisfaction for your life. Do not run up and down nor make a carnal show of yourself. The process of Ruth's marriage and childbearing was holy and pure. That woman had married before but had no child with her husband.  It is a Divine plan, else how could two brothers marry two separate women and both families had no child? How could Elimelech go to Moab and die there along with his two sons? The hand of God is in this matter. Ruth eventuall...

 For taking your time to study remain blessed. Wednesday 15th December GUARD AGAINST THE PITFALL OF RICHES TEXT: MARK 10:17-25 Key verse: “No man can serve two masters; for either he will hate the one, and love the other; or else he will hold to the one, and despise the other. Ye cannot serve God and mammon” Matthew 6:24 Do not serve money or riches; instead, serve the Lord your God. Do not share your service between money and God, instead cleave to God and serve Him only. Do not abandon the worship of God in the church for business. Do not abandon your devotional and prayer life for lack of time as a result of the pursuit or pressure of riches. There is an African parable which is very instructive in this instance: “You are on a mission to seek wealth and on reaching the outskirts of the town you meet an elderly man and on consultation, he tells you that he has no ready-made formula for wealth but has one for enduring integrity and peace. Please pay, obtain the formu...

 FOR TAKING YOUR TIME TO STUDY THE WORD OF GOD REMAIN BLESSED. DATE: MONDAY 13th DECEMBER TOPIC: LET BROTHERLY LOVE CONTINUE TEXT: Hebrews 13:1-4 Key verse: 1 John 4:8 He that loveth not knoweth not God; for God is love. In today's scripture text, the apostle wrote to the brethren teaching them practical love among the brethren. He said that brotherly love should continue. Recognize your sister and love her in Christ, recognize your brother and love him in Christ. Brotherly love should continue. Let's love one another, for love is of God. He that loves knows God. He that loves is born again indeed because God is love and love is practical. Now, he says be not forgetful to entertain strangers. That's part of love. Somebody you have not known may come up in the name of the Lord as a child of God. Extend love to that person; be not forgetful to entertain strangers, for thereby some have entertained angels without knowing it. Entertain people. Love people. Tre...

 REMAIN BLESSED AS YOU TAKE YOUR TIME TO STUDY THE WORD OF GOD. DATE: SUNDAY 12th DECEMBER TOPIC: BE HOLY AND PERFECT IN THE FACE OF CHALLENGES TEXT: JEREMIAH 35: 14-16 Key verse: 1 Corinthians 15:57 But thanks be to God, which giveth us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ. Many people are not able to stand when they are challenged in life by difficulties and problems. Some that are unmarried feel agitated and overwhelmed because they feel that they are passing the flowering stage of life. This is a challenge and it makes them unstable in Christ. Some married women do not have good husbands. Some husbands are wicked and do not have good character. There is a great challenge of unhealthy relationships with their husbands, which makes some women become wicked and evil themselves in a bid to checkmate their husbands. For some, it is the challenge of poverty that makes them unable to stand as they indulge in many sinful practices to make ends meet. For some, it is...

 FOR TAKING YOUR TIME TO STUDY THE WORD OF GOD REMAIN BLESSED. DATE: SATURDAY 11 DECEMBER TOPIC: HOW JESUS MINISTERS ON PULPIT THROUGH PASTOR PAUL RIKA Part 3 TEXT: PSALM 104: 1-4 Key verse: Psalm 104:4 Who maketh his angels spirits; his ministers a flaming fire: Continuation of revelation to Brother Ezi Monday: The Lord turned to me and said, “Come. People have doubts over Pastor Paul Rika and think he is the one speaking to you not knowing that I am the One preaching through him. Come let Me show you how I use Paul Rika.” I now followed Him to the hall. The Coordinators were seating by the right side of the hall, the choir sat by the left side and the congregation was seated also. So He said, “I will show you how I use Pastor Rika.” I saw Pastor Rika seated at his seat by the altar. The Lord Jesus Christ now moved close to him and removed his flesh as someone removing clothes and made him appear as two. I could see double Pastor Rika, but the other one was mere fl...

Tuesday 30th November LESSONS FROM FIRST AND SECOND COMING OF CHRIST TEXT: ACTS 1:9-11 Key verse:  “Behold I come quickly, and My reward is with me, to give every man  according to as his work shall be.” Revelation 22:12. Jesus promised to return and take His people home in the Rapture. The signs of His return are revealed to us through various happenings and revelations. Heaven is fully prepared for this great spiritual event. Jesus is coming back to the world from heaven, the abode of the true God, the place of everlasting life. Jesus came to the earth physically in human form over two thousand (2000) years ago for the work of redemption of mankind and He is coming to the earth again to rapture the saints to heaven. At His first coming, Jesus came as: · A Saviour to save us from sins. · 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 G...

FOR TAKING YOUR TIME TO STUDY THE WORD OF GOD REMAIN BLESSED.  DATE: FRIDAY 10th DECEMBER TOPIC: MERCY FOR THE REPENTANT SINNER  TEXT:  LUKE 15:11-32 Key verse: “For this my son was dead, and is alive again. He was lost, and is found. And they began to merry” (Luke 15:24). The parable of the prodigal son was given by Jesus to illustrate the following: • The magnetic pull the world has on the believers. • The miserable life of a backslider. • The great mercies that God has for sinners.  • The great joy in God's kingdom over a restored soul.      • The critical attitude of some people over a restored soul. • The right attitude to display when a soul is restored.   The prodigal son is an example of a believer in Christ Kingdom who has yielded to the temptation of the devil, the enticement of sin, and the desires of the flesh. The observable traits in such believers include self-will, selfishness, sensuality, spiritual destitution, self-abasement and ...

FOR TAKING YOUR TIME TO STUDY THE WORD OF GOD REMAIN BLESSED.  DATE: WEDNESDAY 8 DECEMBER TOPIC: YOU ARE ACCOUNTABLE TO GOD FOR YOUR SINS TEXT: John 8: 3-11 Key verse: Psalm 51: 3 For I acknowledge my transgressions and my sin is ever  before me.  The things you do convict you and disturb you. You are accountable for them. You acted it out by your willpower. You exercised your willpower wrongly to do evil, even to speak evil and to abuse God.  A woman once called me and said, “I am having blasphemous thoughts in me against God. I do not know what to do. These thoughts keep coming. What should I do?” I said, “Those thoughts are not coming from you but from Satan.  God does not count them as sins against you because you have not accepted them. You are not guilty because those thoughts are not from you. Satan only wants you to accept them.” If you start accepting and liking them, then sin comes in because you are using your willpower.  If you use your willpowe...

FOR TAKING YOUR TIME TO STUDY THE WORD OF GOD REMAIN BLESSED.  DATE: TUESDAY 7th DECEMBER TOPIC: MAKE A COVENANT WITH YOUR EYES NOT TO SIN TEXT: Job 3: 1-2  Key verse:  Psalm 119: 37 Turn away mine eyes from beholding vanity, and quicken thou  me in thy way. Promise yourself that you will not be setting your eyes on the opposite sex. While lying on your bed, you are thinking about women. Why is your mind there, stirring your emotions? What portion is there of God?  Are you receiving anointing from that? What is your gain? Promise yourself, you will not be overcome by any woman. The beauty of any woman will not overcome you. The glory of any man will not overcome you. Tell yourself so!  The women now dress and expose their bodies. They tear their skirts to their buttocks. Brother, it is vanity. Whatever is inside her is vanity. So, why should you worry about what is inside?  Your prayer should always be as you walk in the street, move round in your work...

FOR TAKING YOUR TIME TO STUDY THE WORD OF GOD REMAIN BLESSED DATE: MONDAY 6th DECEMBER TOPIC: TESTS BRING TESTIMONIES: TRIALS BRING TRIUMPH TEXT: RUTH 1: 7-18  Key verse: Ruth 1: 18 “When she saw that she was steadfastly minded to go with her, then she left speaking unto her” God was the One that tried Ruth and she passed the test. Today the exemplary lifestyle and sterling qualities in the life of Ruth remains a great testimony and source of inspiration for many believers.   God did tempt or try Abraham. “Take your son your only son to sacrifice unto Me.” Did He really mean it in His heart that the son should die? All the same, Abraham triumphed and received great blessings from God.  Jesus also tested the Syrophoenician woman. She had cried after Him for her daughter that was grievously vexed with the devil but Jesus kept quiet, then said I cannot take the food that belongs to children and give them to dogs, but the woman said, yet the dogs eat from the crumbs that...

Saturday 4th December  GREAT AND GREATER PRAISE SHALL BE MANIFEST  TEXT:   2 CORINTHIANS 12:7-10  Key verse: 2 Corinthians 12:12 Truly the signs of an apostle were wrought among  you in all patience, in signs, and wonders, and mighty deeds. Continuation of the angelic message: Great and greater praise shall be manifest among us in the future because of the new thing that God said He is going to do. Simeon waited for the salvation the Lord promised because the Lord had promised him, 'I will bring My salvation to Israel, which shall be to all the earth, and praise God, Christ was born in Simeon's day, and Simeon was led to the temple and saw Him. He lifted up the child before the Lord and said, “Now let Your servant go in peace for my eyes have seen the salvation of the Lord.” Your prayer should be, Lord, grant me the grace to remain to see this new thing that You are bringing about on the earth through Holi...

Thursday 2nd December GOD'S ATTENTION IS ON  HOREMOW  TEXT:  1 THESSALONIANS 3: 11-13 Key verse:  1 Thessalonians 3:11Now God himself and our Father, and our Lord Jesus  Christ, direct our way unto you. While in Akwa Ibom some years ago for a program, the State Coordinator while speaking in a crusade said, “Everybody should come to Holiness Revival Movement. All ministers and churches must come to HOREMOW and learn the doctrines of truth, holiness and righteousness for heaven because HOREMOW is higher than all denominations and churches.” This made me afraid where I was seating at the podium because I felt people will challenge his statement and accuse HOREMOW of pride. I said, “Why are you talking like this? If you said this during our internal meetings, it could be easily understood, but why are you speaking like this in a general crusade with many non-members of HOREMOW in attendance?” I later called Pastor ...
