The Fruits Of Physical Work        

Friday June 7th

Text: 2 Thessalonians 3: 7 - 12
Key verse: 2 Thessalonians 3: 10 For even when we were with you, this we commanded you, that if any would not work, neither should he eat.
The fruit of physical work can be seen in a true and holy minister. Paul worked with his own hands to cater for his needs and others with him. He said, “We work with our hands as examples of righteousness to you; the food we eat, the things we purchase. A true and faithful minister engages in various profitable works. If he works in an office, he does not embezzle money, withhold the salary of his workers or under pay them because he wants more money for himself or else you go about preaching and making money through telling lies; testimony of lies. Some preachers tell all kinds of lies to build great cathedrals; the blocks of that building are waiting for you on the day of judgment because you brought it there without righteousness. The beams and pillars of that house are waiting for you in the day of Judgment because you brought them there by lies. You got the money by lies and treachery. You trade on the souls of men as you go about selling anointing oil, handkerchiefs, apron, holy water, deceiving them of miracles at the expense of eternal life.
The projects of a true and faithful minister are godly and commendable including even the clothes and shoes he wears, the house he builds and any other endeavor he undertakes. He gets money in righteousness and holiness. Every tree brings forth fruits after its kind. He does not entangle himself in fake or deceitful ventures for gain because he wants to build a church. Some ministers send people to the garage and filling stations for fund raising, asking people to contribute including the armed robbers who just finished from their duty and came to refill their vehicles; they should drop money to build a church of God. Corrupt work coming from these corrupt preachers. They do not know the holiness of God. Is God so poor that He is asking Satan to give Him money? Why do you go to people whose life you do not know? John said that they did not collect money from sinners for the cause of Christ.

Thought for the day: Physical fruits can be seen in a true and holy minister.

Song for the day: I have chosen the way …

Bible reading for the day: Psalms 9-17

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...

Pastor Paul Rika’s Burden, Vision and Action To Reach the Unreached (2)

God's blessings will continually accompany you for dedicating time to your studies. Pastor Paul Rika’s Burden, Vision and Action To Reach the Unreached (2) Wednesday 15th October TEXT: Titus 3: 3-6   Key verse: Titus 3: 6 “Which He shed on us abundantly through Jesus Christ our Savior.” I remember I was in Sao Tome and Principe as a deeper life national overseer and I was writing the book, “Divine Revelation of God’s Holiness and Judgment.” The vision the Lord gave to Michael Sambo. I was translating it into a book, with the scriptural backups to make it a sound evangelistic book. I saw that truly the world is doomed. What will I say about those who have not known Jesus among the 7 billion people on earth; those who do not even have anything to do with Him? Do I speak of the billions in Asia without understanding of Jesus? Out of the 1.4 billion in India, they are struggling to record 150 million Christians including Catholics.  Who knows Jesus then? Even among Pentecosta...
