JEZEBEL’S ATROCITIES IN ISRAEL

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

TOPIC: JEZEBEL’S ATROCITIES IN ISRAEL 

TEXT: 1 KINGS 16: 29-30-34 

SATURDAY OCTOBER 21ST

Key verse: Revelation 17: 4. “And the woman was arrayed in purple and scarlet colour, and decked with gold and precious stones and pearls, having a golden cup in her hand full of abominations and filthiness of her fornication”  
Sin and evil grew worse in Israel during King Ahab’s reign. People were bold in their defiance toward God, and His commands meant little to them but Baal worship increased. Baal was worshipped by the Canaanites as the god of fertility, rain, and vegetation. Baal worship included the evil practices of cult prostitution and child sacrifice. Jezebel’s devotion to Baal made her commit a lot of atrocities in Israel. God sent prophet Elijah whose powerful expression of faith and divine victories over the prophets of Baal was followed by uncharacteristic fear and discouragement because of Jezebel’s intention to kill him. Elijah had to flee. 
Jezebel further exhibited her wickedness when Naboth refused to release his vineyard to her husband, Ahab. She cooked up charges against him and got him stoned to death and thereafter Ahab took over the vineyard but God was angry and pronounced judgment against them; God destroyed his family. When Jezebel heard that Jehu came around, she painted her face, and tired her head, and looked out of the window; this is a seductive attitude. All that use cosmetics and artificial hair for beauty and seduction are daughters of Jezebel who shall be judged as was Jezebel.
Jezebel wanted to replace the worship of God with Baal. She failed in her wickedness, witchcraft, treachery, and seduction. John used the name Jezebel to describe a false prophetess in Thyatira who was leading God’s people into worldly and immoral behavior. Sadly, many pastors; and wives today fall into the same category. Revelation 2:20 “Notwithstanding I have a few things against thee because thou sufferest that woman Jezebel, which calleth herself a prophetess, to teach and seduce my servants to commit fornication and to eat things sacrificed to idols”.

Thought for the day: Worldliness is not godliness

Song for the day: Take the world and give me Jesus (2x) …

Bible reading for the day: Jeremiah 5-6; 1 Timothy 1

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...
