Devastating Effects of Strange Practices in Christianity (2)

Saturday 25th October

Text: Deuteronomy 4:15, 16, 19   
Key verse: John 14:6 Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by Me. 
V: It is recourse to the usual temptation of natural men on earth who always seek to represent the living God with a physical object. This is the cause of idolatry among men on earth! These handkerchiefs and physical objects prayed upon are carefully kept and jealously preserved by church members, both sinners and believers. They are the first thing to resort to in times of need. These 'anointed' substances are often the objects of heartfelt love, reverence, and adoration. Their presence in the family is as the presence of God. Although those who practice this still think that they are worshipping the living God, they have actually slipped into idolatry unawares and shall suffer eternal damnation as other idol worshippers. Moses warned the children of Israel against representing the unseen God by any physical object. The acceptable way to worship and serve the living God and be blessed by Him is the way of faith. 
VI:  Many ministers, believers and churches do not bother to know about the scriptural correctness of this practice. All they say is, ‘It is working; miracles are happening through it’. But Jesus revealed that many miracle workers shall be condemned because they work iniquity, Matthew 7:21-23. We should not be content that miracles are happening, but must be sure we are living in the will of God, in the light of His word. God can allow a miracle happen and send his judgment after it. God instructed Moses and Aaron to speak to the rock to bring forth water for the children of Israel to drink. They instead struck the rock with the rod twice. This was not according to God's instruction, nevertheless the miracle happened. God is all wise, patient and kind. Notwithstanding the miracle, Moses and Aaron suffered divine judgment for not acting according to His word. 
VII: Satan can take advantage of this ignorance and erroneous practice and cause multiplied miracles to be happening through them. While men rejoice for the multiplied miracles through faith in these anointed physical objects, Satan and his demons rejoice for the shipwreck of their faith and the damnation of their souls. 

Thought for the day: Those who practice these have actually slipped into idolatry.

Song for the day: Jehovah is Your name

Bible reading for the day: Luke 9-10

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...

Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on Me, the works that I do shall he do also; and greater works than these shall he do; because I go unto My Father.  13. And whatsoever ye shall ask in My name, that will I do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son. 14. If ye shall ask any thing in My name, I will do it.

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...
