God bless you for taking your time to study.

DEAL WITH THE ROOT OF SIN.
 
TUESDAY OCTOBER 18TH

TEXT: ROMANS 7:16-25.
KEY VERSE: Romans 6:23 “For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.”
Sin has devastating consequences in the life of a believer. Apart from spiritual death, the opportunity of living eternally with the Lord Jesus Christ is lost due to a sinful lifestyle. The root of sin began in the Garden of Eden when Adam and Eve disobeyed God in Genesis 3:4-6. How can we deal with the root of sin in our lives? It is when we discover the things that God warns us in His word not to do and we run away from it, and completely refrain from it.
Proverbs 1:10 “My son, if sinners entice thee, consent thou not.”
1 Corinthians 10:13 “No temptation has overtaken you except what is common to mankind. And God is faithful; he will not let you be tempted beyond what you can bear. But when you are tempted, he will also provide a way out so that you can endure it”.
Romans 3:23 “for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God,”
Acts 3:19 “Repent ye therefore, and be converted, that your sins may be blotted out when the times of refreshing shall come from the presence of the Lord.”
We cannot live in sin and pretend to serve God such services are not acceptable before God. When we claim to be righteous, the Bible says in Isaiah 64:6 “But we are all as an unclean thing, and all our righteousness is as filthy rags; ---” God says our righteousness is like our filthy rags before God. When we recognize that we are sinners before God and need to be made right then we must make all conscious efforts to repent from our sinful nature and turn to God for cleansing.

Thought for the day: Seek to have a right standing with God, because without holiness no man shall see the Lord.

Song for the day: I surrender, all to Him my blessed savior I surrender.

Bible reading for the day:  Isaiah 55-56; 2 Thessalonians 1

HOLINESS REVIVAL MOVEMENT WORLDWIDE Daily Devotional EVERY WORD OF GOD FOR DAILY LIVING  _BY_ *PASTOR PAUL RIKA*  Int'l Director        (Holiness Revival Movement Worldwide) THURSDAY NOVEMBER 1 , 2018  _TOPIC:_    *YOU WILL SUCCEED AS CHRIST DID BY PRAYER*           TEXT: John 16: 23-24. KEY VERSE: It came to pass, as He was praying in a certain place, when He ceased, one of His disciples said, Lord, teach us how to pray as John taught his disciples. Luke 11: 1. When Jesus Christ came to us in the flesh, He went into the business of prayer because He was promoting the attribute of God as a prayer-answering God. He would not render that attribute idle or redundant. Nobody knew how John did it, but Jesus reveals here that the success you saw in the ministry of John the Baptist, the victory you saw in his ministry, is because he was a prayer man. John so much valued prayer. He saw the essentials of pr...
