JEWELRY IS USED TO ENHANCE SEDUCTION

God bless you for taking your time to study.

TOPIC: JEWELRY IS USED TO ENHANCE SEDUCTION

TEXT: HOSEA 2:5-13 
 
TUESDAY  SEPTEMBER 6th

KEY VERSE – JEREMIAH 4:30 
“And when thou art spoiled, what wilt thou do? Thou clothest thyself with crimson, though thou deckest thee with ornaments of gold. Still, thou retest thy face with painting, in vain shalt thou make thyself fair, thy lovers will despise thee, they will seek thy life.”
In the Bible days, jewelry was seen to promote charming beauty and it is the dressing of harlots. They used jewelry and makeup to make themselves beautiful and to sell themselves out in immorality to men. In our text today, it shows clearly that the woman referred to in this place played harlotry. The items she used to beautify herself for her immoral lovers included earrings and other items of jewelry. Israel was pictured here as a harlot.
The key verse today pictures a harlot who made herself beautiful to her lovers. The things done to achieve her purpose were “clothing herself with crimson, deck up herself with ornaments of gold” (jewellery), and “renting her face with painting” (make-up). To keep to the law of decency and holiness, believing women should avoid those things in their dressing. They belong to harlots. Even the natural sense of a decent woman will teach that those materials are not godly. Over time in the Christian journey, women who are strongly devoted to the service of God would not put on jewelry. They yielded themselves totally to God in complete purity and godly life.
Do not be among the multitude of women who claim to be spiritual who often claim that they hear from God themselves and that if God wants them to remove their jewelry, He would have told them. No man can compel God on how He would speak to the man. He can decide to use any means. This channel (devotional of today) is one of them. Obey God’s voice today! 

Thought for the day: Every property of harlotry defiles the candidates of heaven.

Song for the day: Make me holy (3x) O Lord…

Bible reading for the day: 
Proverbs 9-10; 1 Corinthians 15:1-32

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...

God's blessings will continually accompany you for dedicating time to your studies. My Spirit Will Follow You To Do My Work.  Sunday 16th November  Text: Acts 16: 9-10 Key verse: Mark 16: 20 “And they went forth and preached everywhere, the Lord working with them and confirming the word with signs following, Amen.” Continuation of revelation of Brother Dieudonne:  The Lord said, “I am here to gather My people before the trumpet sounds. My Father will order the angels to sound the trumpet. Be ready! Do My work. Gather My people.” When He said that, He insisted and said, “I am gathering My people with My Spirit. When My Spirit enters, if you obey My word, My Spirit will follow you to do My work. People will listen to you and follow you. They are My chosen. If they listen to My word and reject it, let them go. Evangelize, preach My word to everybody, I am here gathering My people before My coming. If the time was not finished, would the animals have come to Noah? The time is...

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...
