Knowledge And Practice Of The Scriptures Make The Minister

Text: 2 Timothy 3:15-17 

Sunday, January 7th

Jeremiah 3:15 And I will give you pastors according to mine heart, which shall feed you with knowledge and understanding.
A true ministry produces a true preacher by directing that preacher to the word of God. It is the word that raises true ministers. It is the word that raises true and holy converts. So, a true minister preaches the sound word of God and the fruit of it is sound Christians that are being produced. 
Knowledge and understanding are from the holy scriptures. Preach the scriptures because many preachers today only quote one verse from the bible, in fact, they do not open the bible. For some, the preacher will be quoting here and telling stories there and nothing happens in the life of those people. It is the knowledge and obedience of the scriptures that makes a man spiritual. It says of Timothy that from a child he was committed to the scripture and was made wise from the scriptures. The scripture makes you have faith in Christ. All scripture is given by inspiration of God and is profitable for teaching character and lifestyle. It is to be used to correct, rebuke, and reproof people when they go off from the path of righteousness. It is used to instruct people on the way they should live. 
By the scriptures, the man of God may be perfect truly furnished unto all good works but if the preacher does not use the scriptures, he will produce fruits after his kind. His people will love to laugh during services because he will be telling them stories. Some spend more time dancing. They have no scriptures to tell the people. They cannot move from scripture to scripture. They do not have it. They do not read it. During our conferences, our preachers testify of how God has helped them read the Bible with commentaries from the beginning of the year till date, how many messages they have listened to, the number of books read and even total hours of prayers, number of days in fasting and even number of souls won in evangelism.

Thought for the day: Knowledge and obedience of scriptures makes a man spiritual

Song for the day: Something more than gold, something more than silver …

Bible reading for the day: Genesis 24-25

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...
