A Prodigal Son Returns Home

Monday 1st December

Text: Philemon 1: 10-14
Key verse: Philemon 1: 15 “For perhaps he therefore departed for a season, that thou shouldest receive him forever.”
A young man stole the money of his poor parents. The parents discovered that he was the one that stole the money and were angry with him. He became afraid and ran away and left the town completely to a faraway town for quite some years. But the desire for his family came to him. He started longing for them but how will he return? He didn’t know what to do. He started wishing to go back home. What will they do to me? He wrote a letter and acknowledged that he stole the money; that it was wickedness he did but that would they forgive him? If they will forgive him, they should give him a sign. The railway track passed behind their house. He was going to board the train that will be passing by. If you have forgiven me and long to see me, just hang a white cloth behind the house. When I see the white cloth, I will know you are ready to forgive me. I will alight. But if as the train passes by, I see no white cloth, it means you people are angry with me, I will continue with the train to wherever and that is how I will go forever. 
When this information came to the parents, they rejoiced greatly that their son was coming home. They gathered all the white clothes in the house and hung them outside. What if he fails to see these white clothes? They got white paper and spread it everywhere. The house was covered with white. At least he will see one white cloth or paper and they were ready for him. When this young man was passing by, he saw white clothes and papers; the love of his father, mother, brothers and sisters in the family. “Oh! My people still love me. Oh God, I thank you for granting me forgiveness. I won’t do it again. He alighted and came for celebration. Prodigal son has come back home. Angels shall rejoice as you come back home. The church shall rejoice as you come back to the Father. The Father shall rejoice. Jesus will stand up waiting for you to come.

Thought for the day: Prodigal child, come back home. 

Song for the day: Wasted years (2x), O how foolish… turn around, God is calling…

Bible reading for the day: 1 Corinthians 10-13

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...
