TOPIC: USE OF ANOINTING OIL FOR THE SICK IS NOT MANDATORY 

TEXT: JAMES 5: 13-16 

THURSDAY OCTOBER 12TH

Key verse: Isaiah 8: 20 “To the law and to the testimony, if they speak not according to this word; It is because there is no light in them.”
The use of anointing oil to minister to the sick is optional, not mandatory because Peter went down to heal Aeneas who was bedridden for many years but did not use anointing oil on him. He just turned to him and said, “Aeneas, Christ Jesus maketh thee whole. Arise and take your bed.” He didn’t use oil but Aeneas got healed. So, it is optional for those who choose to use it. The use of anointing oil in the New Testament was restricted to healing the sick but then you find anointing oil in another dimension in the present church. They use anointing oil to anoint ministers, where did you get an example from? Jesus did not anoint His disciples with oil. The apostles did not anoint their under-ministers with oil. When Paul and Barnabas were commissioned for a missionary journey, the elders of the church did not anoint them with oil. They fasted and laid their hands upon them and prayed and released them. 
When Paul took Timothy to be with him, he did not anoint him with oil. Neither was Titus and his other companions anointed with oil. Then why do you anoint workers with oil in your church? Anointing ministers for service, anointing people to go and stand as ushers, anointing people to go and sweep the ground…Where did you get that from? It is a strange spirit and since you have added to the word of God, you have given the devil occasion. This error crept in when men slept. A man sowed good seed in his field but an enemy came and sowed tares among them. 
You are not watchful. The enemy has come and sown the tares of anointing oil, and you think that it is from scripture; never from the scripture of truth. It is from a strange spirit that is responsible for the strange things happening in the body of Christ. A strange power has been communicated because it cannot be proved in the scripture. so, there is no truth in that anointing oil. Now, what much more of an anointing service for a breakthrough, for an interview, for your tongue, ears, and eyes so that you can see well as a witch or wizard?

Thought for the day: Use of anointing oil for the sick is optional, not mandatory.

Song for the day: I believe, yes Lord, I believe…

Bible reading for the day: Isaiah 45-47; Colossians 3

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...

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...
