TESTIMONY OF RESTITUTION BY SISTER ESTHER EFFIONG

Text: Genesis 20: 1-18 

WEDNESDAY FEBRUARY 1st 

Key verse: Luke 19:10 “For the Son of man came to seek and to save that which is lost”
My name is sister Esther Effiong, an indigene of Akwa-Ibom state based in Katsina, Katsina state, Nigeria. My testimony started in December 2012. Before I came to know HOREMOW, I was a member of the Apostolic church and thought I was born again. However, during the December 2012 conference, I heard the messages of Sister Linda and Pastor Paul Rika, and I realized that my experience was not genuine. Based on the messages I learned about restitution, and I realized that I was in the wrong marriage because I was a second wife to a man. More so, I was putting on worldly attires which was also wrong and sinful to the lord. The true messages I received convicted me and I started attending meetings of HOREMOW in Kaduna state while planning how to do my restitution. 
Two weeks after I started fellowshipping with HOREMOW, the man I got married to as a second wife started persecuting me. When he became aware that I wanted to leave the marriage on restitution, he threatened me saying that over his dead body, I won’t leave. According to him, two of us would die if I make any attempt to leave him. It was a serious battle for six years, packing in and out of the house, trying to make it work. Till I finally moved out by faith and grace. After leaving his house, I was accommodated by a sister in HOREMOW. Two weeks after I left, he sent my children out of the house. I came back and packed my few clothes and sewing machine. My second son who was in his third year at the university was confused about how he would continue his education. I told him, the Lord will take care of everything. God took over the situation; presently he has graduated. By God’s mercy, my children have gotten jobs and taking care of me. Doing my restitution gave me joy, and peace of mind and I can now preach the gospel without fear. Praise the LORD.

Thought for the day: Restitution is an integral aspect of holiness

Song for the day: Let me tell you what I miss since I believe in Jesus…

Bible reading for the day: Exodus 27-28; Matthew 21:23-46

Them That Sin, Rebuke Before All

God's blessing shall be following you continually for taking the time to study. Them That Sin, Rebuke Before All   Monday 24th March Text: 1 Timothy 5: 19-22 Key verse: Them that sin rebuke before all, that others also may fear. 1 Timothy 5:20 God wants you to avoid doing evil while saying you want to go to heaven. You may be a member of a worldly church and be saying, “It is my tribal church; if I leave them, they will be angry. I do not want them to be angry.” Is it God you want to make angry by your compromise? You will see the anger of God indeed. It is through the word that you perfect the people, and as a result, the Bible says, “Thou shalt not suffer sin upon your brother. Thou shall reprove him.” Your brother or sister has done a bad thing, and you do not bother. You leave them in their sins. They may do the same to other people. The Lord says, “Correct them.” Do not allow sin to be in them because sin will take them to hell. The Bible says, “Them that sin, rebuke befo...

For taking your time to study remain blessed. FACTS TO BE UNDERSTOOD ON REVELATION MESSAGES WEDNESDAY JANUARY 11 TEXT: NUMBERS 12: 4-8. Key verse: "To the law and to the testimony: if they speak not according to this word, it is because there is no light in them" Isaiah 8:20. God has given revelations to many in our days and He is still in the business of doing that. The choice of these messengers is His sovereign will.

The recipient of the revelation may be an ignorant person whose understanding is unfruitful, hence, he may not be capable to interpret the revelation received. Except God gives the grace of interpretation to ...
