FOR TAKING YOUR TIME TO STUDY THE WORD OF GOD REMAIN BLESSED AMEN

HOLINESS REVIVAL MOVEMENT WORLDWIDE (HOREMOW)

DAILY DEVOTIONAL BY  PASTOR PAUL RIKA INTERNATIONAL DIRECTOR

DATE: THURSDAY 5TH MAY

TOPIC: BEWARE OF PHILOSOPHY AND DECEPTION OF MEN

TEXT: Colossians. 2:6-8

KEY VERSE: Mark 7:7Howbeit in vain do they worship me, teaching for doctrines the commandments of men.

It is possible for those who have believed in Jesus to be spoiled. Yes, with your commitment and dedication you can be spoiled. The bacterial that spoil a Christian is called philosophy of men. 

This can take away the anointing from you. What is philosophy? It is the reasoning of men that formed their belief; coming from the thought and reasoning of the same men. 

Isaiah 55:8-9:  For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways, saith the LORD. For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways, and my thoughts than your thoughts.” 

Knowledge of God is far from human reasoning. The knowledge of God comes by revelation. God will destroy every negative idea of men. True success is based on the word of God, not on ideas of men. 

The just shall live by faith. To the world, the way of God looks foolish. The philosophy of this world believes that life cannot be deeper but life is absolute. 

Colossians 2:6-10

6 As ye have therefore received Christ Jesus the Lord, so walk ye in him:

7 Rooted and built up in him, and stablished in the faith, as ye have been taught, abounding therein with thanksgiving.

8 Beware lest any man spoil you through philosophy and vain deceit, after the tradition of men, after the rudiments of the world, and not after Christ.

9 For in him dwelleth all the fulness of the Godhead bodily.

10 And ye are complete in him, which is the head of all principality and power:

By reasoning, men rejected the way of God, for man’s salvation. Be careful, that they don’t set before you natural principles and making you fall from faith. 

Take the word by faith and not by reasoning. If you apply reasoning, you will not accept the teaching of holiness because they will be foolishness to you.

Thought for the day: Let no man deceive you

Song for the day: Hallelujah Jesus conquered the word

Bible reading for day: 1 Kings 10-11, 
Luke 24:1-35.  #Horemow

Signs And Wonders Should Be According To Biblical Pattern

God's blessings shall be following you continually for taking the time to study. Signs And Wonders Should Be According To Biblical Pattern Text: Mark 16: 17 – 20 Wednesday May 8th Key verse: Obadiah 17 “Upon mount Zion shall be deliverance, and there shall be holiness and the house of Jacob shall possess their possessions.” God has prepared to direct us on holy service unto Himself. He tells us when the lives and services of people are corrupt because from the heart of men proceed the works they do. When people are righteous and holy, their service is also righteous and holy. Hence, the word says, make the people holy then their service will be holy, so if you accept to live a life of holiness, then the fruit of your service will be holy. So, it is very important to accept the life of holiness because the God that made you is holy; He will give you grace to be holy. You just make up your mind to be holy. Do not accept that no man can be holy; then Jesus came for nothing, Jes...

God’s Extra Effort In Restoring The Backslider

God's blessings shall be following you continually for taking the time to study. God’s Extra Effort In Restoring The Backslider  Sunday May 12th Text: Jeremiah 3: 15 – 17 Key verse: Ezekiel 33: 11 Say unto them, As I live, saith the Lord God, I have no pleasure in the death of the wicked; but that the wicked turn from his way and live: turn ye, turn ye from your evil ways; for why will ye die, O house of Israel.  Receive the word that will change you, restore you, reestablish you and give you back the hope of eternal life. Come back! The Lord is pleading. Can you see the effort of God in your life? And can you see madness in your life; resisting every effort God is making. God is calling you. Retrace your ways. Follow the good old way. Go and confess those things, do not keep them. Your problem is, you want to serve God but you have not confessed your sins openly because of shame, fear and  pride which shall be dissolved in hell. That is where your problem is. Yes, you wa...
