PROMOTING LOVE AND HOLINESS IN CHRISTIANITY

TEXT:  Ephesians 4: 3 – 7;                                                                 

Key verse: 1 Peter 1: 22 “Seeing ye have purified your souls in obeying the truth through the Spirit unto unfeigned love of the brethren, see that ye love one another with a pure heart fervently:”

If we don't promote love, our holiness is vain. If we lack love, our faith is vain. Satan will like to put hatred in your heart against each other. The women caused hatred between David and Saul by their song. That brought lasting enmity between David and Saul. The mismanagement of this information led King Saul to hell. When the disciples reported to Jesus the man they saw casting out demons in His name to provoke jealousy in Him, rather He rebuked them. Joshua suggested Moses should stop the two people among the seventy prophesying in the camp, Moses instead was optimistic of the development and wished all God's children were prophets. To promote love, we must adhere to the following:

1, We must see others as ourselves; We must see ourselves and churches in Christ as one; not as a denominational church but as those in Christ having one body (Christ), one Spirit (Holy Spirit), one hope (heaven), one Lord (Jesus Christ), one faith (the word), one baptism (baptism of regeneration) and one God and father of all. In southern Nigeria, we have petroleum deposit that is used by all Nigerians and other nations. Similarly, God sees only one church. God has made us one. We have this seven oneness; we will promote one body.

2. We must be ready for the LORD to cleanse us; Ezekiel 36: 33 -36; Defilement was going on among the Israelites; the hatred among them bred bloodshed upon the land; many hated without a cause. God wants to sanctify them and remove uncleanness from them. He promised He will cleanse and renew them to serve His purpose. Anyone wanting to bring the darkness of hatred among believers, God will judge him for bringing defilement among the children of God. They are polluting the name of God for lack of love and bringing shame to the name of the Lord. God wants to give you a new and soft heart that can be subordinate to Him. 

3 We must judge ourselves so we could be judged by no man; Don't allow separation in the leadership. Pair up yourselves in prayer to get any ugly situation arrested. Where things are not happening well, take it to God in prayer. Your love for one another should be without pretence. The heart is a difficult part of man but if taken to God in prayer, He circumcises it. When the body is Esau's and the voice is Jacob's among brethren; something is wrong. See that you love one another with a pure heart. Perfect one another in love and holiness.

Thought for today: Love is central to the unity of the body; let's promote it

Song for the day: Though we are many, we are one body………

Bible reading for the day: Deuteronomy 17-19; Mark 14:1-25

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...
