Judas Iscariot: The Unfaithful Apostle

Wednesday 1st April 

Text: Matthew 26: 47-50
Key Verse: Matthew 26: 54 "But how then shall the scripture be fulfilled, that thus it must be?"
Judas Iscariot was one of the apostles of Jesus Christ and was the one that kept the purse. This shows the kind of trust conferred him by the Lord. It was unfortunate that he was the one that betrayed the Master for a sum of money. His love for money also showed when Mary anointed the Lord with a costly ointment, he complained that such oil could have been sold and given to the poor. The Bible says that he only said so for his selfish purpose and not for the love he has for the poor. The second time the Lord was anointed was at Bethany when a woman came with alabaster box of very precious ointment. This time it was the disciples that saw it as a waste and felt it could have been sold and given to the poor. It is possible that Judas Iscariot's previous comment on Mary must have influenced their current statement. Today, some ministers are more concerned with their belly than the eternal reward that will accrue to them if they remain faithful to God.
It is shameful that some pastors convert vehicles and houses given to their churches to their personal properties. Churches can no longer resolve leadership problems among themselves but prefer to go to court in order to settle matters. God does not matter to them. Today, it is what the pastor says that is carried out and not what God says. We have many Judas Iscariots among us who have betrayed Jesus Christ many times and have deviated from the way. Fake miracles and stage-managed testimonies are given to deceive people. They deceive many through occultism to win more members. They preach prosperity and scarcely preach repentance from sin, and the danger of hellfire. They preach eternal security; once born again forever born again. The doctrine of restitution is not part of their message, and members are not aware. Provocative dresses are no more sin before them. Repent and seek God for mercy.

Thought For The Day: The love of money is the root of all evils

Song For The Day: Give me that old-time religion...

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...
