PREPARATION TO FACE END-TIME CHALLENGES

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

TOPIC: PREPARATION TO FACE END-TIME CHALLENGES

TEXT: MATTHEW 24:3-13 

FRIDAY NOVEMBER 10TH

Key verse: 1 Timothy 4:1 “Now the spirit speaketh expressly, that in the latter times some shall depart from the faith, giving heed to seducing spirits and doctrines of devils.”
The end time signifies the end of the world, which began in the time of the apostles and is now in our generation. The end time is characterized with a high level of wickedness that if a child of God is not prepared it will be difficult to face the evil devices of the devil.  There is increase in iniquities, almost everywhere is polluted by the devil. Death is also on the increase; sinners are dropping rapidly into hell and the devil likes it so. Hell has enlarged itself to receive more death. Various fashions of nakedness are being introduced into the world and people are following it. 
Witchcraft has become a norm in the society and Satan has sent his agents, including children and their teachers everywhere to initiate children in schools and churches. Children are rebellious against their parents and the worship of God has no regard for them. The media and the government are giving strong backing to Satan’s policies to corrupt the system. The people are now liars, they lie even to the Holy Ghost. In the church, the ministers tell testimonies of lies to impress and keep members. Pride has taken over the thought of man and the good man has no place again in the society. The scripture says the whole world lieth in wickedness. 
The implication of increased iniquities in our day is that the way to heaven is narrow and it is now difficult to practice righteousness. It means that a believer must need extra oil to stand against the will of the devil. He must increase his prayer tempo to resist the faring darts of the devil. He must get hold of the word of God by constantly reading his bible where he draws strength and wisdom to live in this immoral and corrupt society. It means that a believer must acquaint himself with the fellowship of holy brethren such as the holiness movement so that together they can subdue the devil and his agents.

Thought for the day: Extra oil is required to keep you above Satan’s devices today.

Song for the day: Give me oil in my life to keep me burning

Bible reading for the day: Lamentations 1-2; Hebrews 7

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...
