Be Zealous For The Work Of God      

Wednesday May 15th

Text: Nehemiah 2: 9 - 18

Key verse: Romans 12:11 Not slothful in business; fervent in spirit; serving the Lord.
I was blessed by the story of a woman in Jos that joined HOREMOW and was serving God with much zeal. The husband said, “You must leave HOREMOW or our marriage will stop. I will divorce you in the court.” She said, “Praise Jesus! I have been looking for time to preach this gospel from place to place but I am arrested here. Did you say you will take me to court? Praise the Lord. Go and do it. Hey! What good news! That I shall be free to preach the gospel from place to place. I will fly from Jos to Lagos. Next week I will be in Sokoto. Then I shall travel to Benin Republic. I will go to preach in London and I shall see Israel with my eyes. I will go to America and stir revival there. Praise the Lord!” After a period of time, she reminded him to hasten the divorce letter but the husband replied, “Please, leave me alone.” That was the end of the divorce threat from her husband.
When Nehemiah got the burden, he went to prayer. God, it is true. We really sinned. We disobeyed you that is why these things happened. Jerusalem lieth waste. The people are in great distress and reproach. It is our sin. The gate of the city is burnt down. It is our sin Lord. We are sorry. We have sinned but God I must rectify these things. I must bring revival to the people. I must recover this people in righteousness and holiness. I must bring this people back to you. So, God grant me favour before the king. Let the vision of my heart be worked out by you and the good hand of the Lord was released upon him. 
Nehemiah had come. Burden, vision and action! He came to survey the place to understand properly the situation. He went round to consider the city; the heart was on fire. He saw the reproach indeed. As he was going he was also seeing the situation of the people. His heart burnt within him. This thing must be done. This principle obtains even among the sinners: Vision, Burden, Action! 

Thought for the day: When Nehemiah got the burden, he went to prayer. Do likewise.

Song for the day: We are able to go up and take the country …

Bible reading for the day: 2 Chronicles 29-31

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...
