NECESSITY OF SOUND SCRIPTURAL CONVICTION

God bless you for taking the time to study.

TOPIC: NECESSITY OF SOUND SCRIPTURAL CONVICTION

TEXT: 2 Peter 1:19-21 
WEDNESDAY JANUARY 11th 

KEY VERSE: Luke 17: 32 Remember Lot's wife
I am Sister Eva Awenle Anab, from the Lapaz unit, Accra, Ghana. God led me to HOREMOW through a series of dreams and events. While in secondary school I loved the dressing of Deeper Life sisters and I attended Retreat programs occasionally although I was a Methodist. I was just so happy with the way pastor Kumuyi preached and taught about sanctification and holiness. I learned a lot from them; how to live your life day to day is holy. I followed their teachings because I loved their lifestyle. I didn’t know why they do not wear earrings but I joined them in not wearing them. The teachings of pastor Kumuyi helped me a lot to walk in purity, in holiness. I practiced it with all my heart.
Concerning adornment, I had no scriptural understanding so when I later got married, I went back to wearing them. I didn’t perm my hair as a youth; I left it natural and I used the ceiling fan thread for plaiting but I went back when I got married in the church of Christ. I went back to wearing earrings because I never heard that the earrings would take someone to hell fire. I never heard anything like that. The day I permed my natural hair, I dreamt that I was falling into a deep darkness. When I got up, I prayed but I didn’t understand it. In 2019, I heard the testimony of a Jehovah's witness, Brother Kobena, on the radio and later on YouTube. He was taken to heaven and hell and brought back to testify. 
He warned about adornment. He said, “I saw women tormented in hell fire for using jewelry in hell fire. I saw my mother who died as a member of the church of Christ in torment for wearing earrings, rings, and trousers.” I didn’t know that I was practicing the right thing as a youth in deeper life church. I saw that it was nice to wear a long skirt and keep natural hair also. I only joined them to do so. I never had an understanding. If I knew that these things were requirements for heaven, I would have held on to them but I went back to my earrings and lipstick as an adult. (Note: The testimonies are presented weekly as a series)

Thought for the day: Don’t turn around to the things you left behind

Song for the day: I have decided to follow Jesus

Bible reading for the day: Genesis 27-28; Matthew 9:18-38

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...
