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

TOPIC: DO NOT MISINTERPRET THE GOOD WORKS OF GOD 

TEXT: 1TIMOTHY 4: 1, 3- 5  

SATURDAY NOVEMBER 25TH

Key verse: Proverbs 17: 22 A merry heart doeth good like a medicine: 
This tells us that medicines do good. The scriptures show that medicines do good to mankind. Isaiah 5:20 20 Woe unto them that call evil good, and good evil; that put darkness for light, and light for darkness; that put bitter for sweet, and sweet for bitter! It is not out of place in the Scripture to say; my son, take medicine, for medicine is good, just as the Scripture also says, my son, eat thou honey, for honey is good. If the Bible calls honey a good thing and somebody comes and forbids the eating of honey; saying do not eat honey, the same Bible says, woe to that man. The person who says, do not eat honey, it is evil, is saying, that what God says is good is not really good, but evil. That was what Satan told Eve and Adam in the garden to destroy them. Such a person is satanic. Hence, churches that preach against the use of medicines by the sick are doing great evil. 
The devil interferes a lot among mankind to turn them off from that which is good by naming it evil, especially in the church, to the point that some creation of God, beautiful as it is, given for human benefit, Satan would come and say they are evil; or he passes through some preachers, some religious men, to lay a bad name on a good thing. Medicine has suffered many attacks. Many people have come up to say it is a sin to take medicine, or in fact, that those people who take medicine will go to hell because it shows they do not have faith in Jesus. That is a doctrine of the devil. The scripture says that medicine is good. The Bible says that God created all things good for our use with prayer and thanksgiving. He created it to be received by believers. They who believe and know the truth receive it with thanksgiving. Your prayer over it sanctifies and purifies it. As you use it, bless God and be happy for His wisdom. Maybe there are people that up till now do not use the handset, because when mobile phones came new, some people said it must have something to do with Satan: “How can you call somebody far away and speak to him unconnected?”

Thought for the day: People always misinterpret the good works of God. 

Song for the day: How excellent is Your name, O Lord

Bible reading for the day: Ezekiel 34-35; 1 Peter 2

HOLINESS REVIVAL MOVEMENT WORLDWIDE Daily Devotional EVERY WORD OF GOD FOR DAILY LIVING  _BY_ *PASTOR PAUL RIKA*  Int'l Director        (Holiness Revival Movement Worldwide) THURSDAY NOVEMBER 1 , 2018  _TOPIC:_    *YOU WILL SUCCEED AS CHRIST DID BY PRAYER*           TEXT: John 16: 23-24. KEY VERSE: It came to pass, as He was praying in a certain place, when He ceased, one of His disciples said, Lord, teach us how to pray as John taught his disciples. Luke 11: 1. When Jesus Christ came to us in the flesh, He went into the business of prayer because He was promoting the attribute of God as a prayer-answering God. He would not render that attribute idle or redundant. Nobody knew how John did it, but Jesus reveals here that the success you saw in the ministry of John the Baptist, the victory you saw in his ministry, is because he was a prayer man. John so much valued prayer. He saw the essentials of pr...
