Prophecy Must Be Subjected To Scriptural Scrutiny  

Wednesday 6th August

Text: Deuteronomy 18:20-22 
Key verse: 1 Corinthians 14:2 For he that speaketh in an unknown tongue speaketh not unto men, but unto God: for no man understandeth him; howbeit in the spirit he speaketh mysteries.
Prophesying does not require uncontrolled shouting, falling down, crying, shaking, and unnecessary demonstration. The message must be given in clear speech, in dignity and decency for the glory of God. The message of prophecy must be subjected to scriptural scrutiny to know whether it is from God or not. This requires the following: I: Diligent listening to know the details of the message, John 7:51. II: Documentation of the details of the message for verification, Habakkuk 2:2, 3. III: Doctrinal analysis of the message, to ensure there is no contradiction to the written scripture, Galatians 1:8, 9. IV: Dutiful verification of the revelations and predictions of the prophetic message for accuracy and fulfilment, Acts 17:11. V: Disciplinary life and attitude of the person operating in the gift, Deuteronomy 13:1-5. The church must not accept everybody into this ministry and must not accept every prophetic utterance without diligent scriptural investigation. We are instructed to prove all things to discern those operating by evil spirits or the human spirit in craftiness and deny them ministry and audience in the worship service of believers. 
God has promised all who believe in Jesus the baptism with the Holy Spirit, Acts 1:4, 5, 8. Speaking in a new tongue is the evidence of baptism with the Holy Spirit. Baptism with the Holy Spirit is also known as the gift of the Holy Spirit. This is different from the gifts of the Spirit. Only those who have received Jesus as their Lord and Savior can be baptized with the Holy Spirit. Those who speak in tongues by this experience speak not to men, but to God, and they speak mysteries. What they speak can be the language of men on earth or of angels in heaven, 1 Corinthians13:1. God gives this ability to believers for their personal edification. Hence, they can speak in tongues, pray in tongues and sing in tongues, 1 Corinthians 14:15. Apostle Paul showed that, although believers are allowed to speak in tongues in the worship service for their edification, this must be under control. 

Thought for the day: Wild speaking in tongues in the worship service is unscriptural.

Song for the day: Peace, purity, power, all mine in the Lord

Bible reading for the day: Jeremiah 9-11

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...

My Spirit Will Follow You To Do My Work.  Sunday 16th November  Text: Acts 16: 9-10 Key verse: Mark 16: 20 “And they went forth and preached everywhere, the Lord working with them and confirming the word with signs following, Amen.” Continuation of revelation of Brother Dieudonne:  The Lord said, “I am here to gather My people before the trumpet sounds. My Father will order the angels to sound the trumpet. Be ready! Do My work. Gather My people.” When He said that, He insisted and said, “I am gathering My people with My Spirit. When My Spirit enters, if you obey My word, My Spirit will follow you to do My work. People will listen to you and follow you. They are My chosen.

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...
