ENDURE DISCIPLINE TO QUALIFY FOR HEAVEN.

God's blessings shall follow you, for taking the time to study.

TOPIC: ENDURE DISCIPLINE TO QUALIFY FOR HEAVEN.

TEXT: DANIEL 1:4-6 

MONDAY JULY 31ST

Key verse: 1 Corinthians 11:32 “But when we are judged, we are chastened of the Lord that we should not be condemned with the world”
The scripture says that when there was no king in Israel, everyone did what he wanted. In every organized system, there are rules guiding the activities therein. Those who flaws the set standards are disciplined. We learned from the government of Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon that he had a very high standard. He ensured those who served under him were trained to attain his set standard before they were brought to serve in his palace. He set the criteria for selection into his training school; children without blemish, well favoured, skilled in all wisdom, cunning in knowledge, understanding science, able to stand in the king’s palace and whom they might teach the learning and the tongues of the Chaldeans”. 
If a mortal man could set such a high standard, the God of heaven requires higher standards. In the government of king Nebuchadnezzar, there was a high level of discipline, failure could attract the death penalty. In HOREMOW, the standard is very high because we are preparing people for heaven to meet with the Holy God. God will not accept unholy people who steal His funds, immoral people who defiled themselves with women/men, or involved in witchcraft and tell lies without fear. 
Discipline is judgment of mercy, to enable you to meet up with the standard of heaven while you are still alive. When a state coordinator was disciplined in HOREMOW headquarters, Abuja, the Lord revealed the scenario to an old woman in that state who was not in the meeting. She saw that two angels came down and stood with Pastor Rika and pronounced judgment on the coordinator. Be serious with your Christian life; if your error is uncovered and you are disciplined in love, embrace it gladly. It is meant to correct you and save you from being judged by the world at the end of time so that you will be accepted by the Lord into His kingdom; a more beautiful place than the palace of the supreme king of the world.

Thought for the day: Discipline is the judgment of mercy; never get angry at it.

Song for the day: I have decided to follow Jesus (3x), no turning back (2x)

Bible reading: for the day: Psalm 62-64; Romans 1

Signs And Wonders Should Be According To Biblical Pattern

God's blessings shall be following you continually for taking the time to study. Signs And Wonders Should Be According To Biblical Pattern Text: Mark 16: 17 – 20 Wednesday May 8th Key verse: Obadiah 17 “Upon mount Zion shall be deliverance, and there shall be holiness and the house of Jacob shall possess their possessions.” God has prepared to direct us on holy service unto Himself. He tells us when the lives and services of people are corrupt because from the heart of men proceed the works they do. When people are righteous and holy, their service is also righteous and holy. Hence, the word says, make the people holy then their service will be holy, so if you accept to live a life of holiness, then the fruit of your service will be holy. So, it is very important to accept the life of holiness because the God that made you is holy; He will give you grace to be holy. You just make up your mind to be holy. Do not accept that no man can be holy; then Jesus came for nothing, Jes...

God’s Extra Effort In Restoring The Backslider

God's blessings shall be following you continually for taking the time to study. God’s Extra Effort In Restoring The Backslider  Sunday May 12th Text: Jeremiah 3: 15 – 17 Key verse: Ezekiel 33: 11 Say unto them, As I live, saith the Lord God, I have no pleasure in the death of the wicked; but that the wicked turn from his way and live: turn ye, turn ye from your evil ways; for why will ye die, O house of Israel.  Receive the word that will change you, restore you, reestablish you and give you back the hope of eternal life. Come back! The Lord is pleading. Can you see the effort of God in your life? And can you see madness in your life; resisting every effort God is making. God is calling you. Retrace your ways. Follow the good old way. Go and confess those things, do not keep them. Your problem is, you want to serve God but you have not confessed your sins openly because of shame, fear and  pride which shall be dissolved in hell. That is where your problem is. Yes, you wa...
