MAKE YOUR FATHER AND MOTHER GLAD IN YOUR LIFE

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

TOPIC: MAKE YOUR FATHER AND MOTHER GLAD IN YOUR LIFE 

TEXT: EPHESIANS 6:1-3  

FRIDAY AUGUST 18TH

Key verse: Matthew 15:4 For God commanded, saying, Honour thy father and mother: and He that curseth father or mother, let him die the death. 
Obey your father and mother in the Lord in matters that will bring joy and happiness to God, not in areas that God will be sorrowful and sad. For example, your father should not ask you to go and kill somebody or to go and marry someone else’s wife and you succumb to it. Neither should your mother ask you to go and steal, and you obey. That is not obedience to the Lord. God is not happy with such assignments and in such a case, you and your parents will be judged, because you have done wickedness. However, in matters of decency and right behaviour, obey them without hesitation. If you are told, to fetch water, wash plates, go on an errand and so on, that is good and acceptable in the sight of God. Make them happy by doing that, and they will bless you. But even if they refuse to or forget, God will bless you. If you continue in this manner, it shall be well with you in life and many death situations will be averted for keeping God’s commandment towards your parents. 
He that beats up his father or mother is cursed. That child is wicked. Even if your father or mother abuses you or speaks evil against you or provokes you to anger, you must not curse them or raise your hand against them. It is an abomination. Assuming your father or mother decides to engage you in a fight, do not attempt to fight back. Respect and honour him or her in obedience to the divine commandment. If you fight back, the judgment that follows is eternal death unless you repent. The place God has placed your father and mother is far above you no matter how rich, educated, or enlightened you may be. God has put the blessings of life on children who are obedient to their parents as well as curses on those who are disobedient to their parents. The scripture makes it plain that parents are glad when their children behave well and are sorrowful when their children are stubborn.          

Thought for the day: Make your parents happy for God to be happy with you. 

Song for the day: Lord I want to be like Jesus inner my heart… 

Bible reading for the day: - Psalm 109-111; Romans 16

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...
