Gods blessings shall follow you continually for taking the time to study.

TOPIC: POSSESS CHRIST'S VICTORY THROUGH FAITH AND PRAYER

TEXT: REVELATION 12: 7-11 

FRIDAY DECEMBER 29TH

Key verse: Revelation 12: 11 “And they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb, and by the word of their testimony; and they loved not their lives unto the death.”
Some believers are told that for them to be free, they have to go and make investigation and interview their parents or village elders to know whether there are generation curses over their lives. They are told that some houses have to be pulled down, some trees have to be rooted up, some buried things have to be dug out, some property have to be burned, some confessions and prayers have to be made over buildings, lands, river sides and mountains to dislodge the devil from his hold, only then the curse can be broken and the believer made free. Some give several revelations and testimonies to back up this strange gospel. Faith in Christ and His righteousness terminates all kinds of curse in the believer's life. 
Our attention is not on the signs, wonders, spiritual gifts, or miracles that accompany a doctrine; for Satan can back up his doctrine with these too. Our attention is rather on the scriptural authority of the doctrine. We exalt the salvation of the souls of men from sin and their eternal life above healing, deliverance and prosperity in this present life. These belong to us too, but we must be sure they come from God and not from the enemy of our soul. 
Christ's victory is appropriated and effected in the life of the believer through faith and prayer. The believer is to look to Jesus and set His victory before him, believe always that he has been made free in Christ, confess his liberty, walk by faith of it, keep himself in obedience to the word of God and walk in righteousness and holiness. Jesus is to be upheld by the church. His victory over Satan should constantly be celebrated by the church. His praise and worship as Lord of lords, King of kings, the Captain of our salvation, the Bishop of our souls should fill our prayer, exhortation and sermons. 

Thought for the day: Christ's victory is appropriated and effected in the life of the believer through faith and prayer. 

Song for the day: In Jesus name, every knee shall bow…

Bible reading for the day: Zechariah 10-12; Revelation 20

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...
