PRESERVING INNOCENCE FOR THE SAKE OF HOLINESS

God bless you for taking your time to study.

TOPIC: PRESERVING INNOCENCE FOR THE SAKE OF HOLINESS

TEXT:  MATTHEW 18, 1-7 

TUESDAY DECEMBER 13th 

Key Verse: Philippians 4:8 Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, think on these things. 
Parents cannot guarantee that their children will become holy or stay in holiness. Why does your child need a smartphone? Do you know all the apps on your children’s phones? Do you know what social media websites they frequent? Do you know if they are on dating apps? Do you check the history of their websites? Do you know what music is on their playlists? Restricting their liberty may be a way of protecting their innocence because preserving their innocence will make their transition into holiness smoother. If they have not been initiated into anything devilish, they will not know the depths of Satan. 
Knowing this, ensure you endeavor to protect their innocence. Do not trust that your children are innocent and holy. Do not turn your face from looking into their lives because you may be scared of what you might see. It is better that you solve these problems within your household. If you can resolve them, the church will be less burdened. The ministry of God will have time for other things because you would have done the work of a bishop in ensuring that your household is under subjection to the word of God. Have frequent bible studies in your household. Turn off the TV and open the scriptures. 
Be approachable to your children so that they will feel free to expose themselves to you. Ask them questions. Enquire about them! Scan them! By so doing, you will be able to detect the spiritual level of maturity of your children. By so doing, you will know how to direct your prayers. The scriptures tell us to pray in the Spirit and also to pray with our minds. Let your mind be exercised in the things your children require. Ask them direct questions. Knowing answers to these questions will help you know for instance whether you should pray for forgiveness or whether you should pray for protection.

Thought for the day: There are great blessings in obeying God’s word 

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

Bible reading for the day: Joel; Revolution 4

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...
