The Precious Ministry Of Samuel

Monday 11th May 

Text: 1 Samuel 3:19-21
Key Verse: And the child Samuel ministered unto the Lord before Eli and the word of the Lord was precious in those days there was no open vision 1Samuel 3:1
Samuel had a unique and precious ministry. The children of Eli, Phinehas and Hophni were there, but truth could not be found in them. The word of the Lord manifested itself through Samuel. The Lord made Samuel the prophet of Israel because he was a righteous priest, the only one in charge of the work in the temple and sacrificing for the children of Israel. God picked Samuel, a righteous man and made him His mouthpiece in Israel. God put Himself in Samuel, and miracles followed him. Samuel maintained righteousness to the end. What is the testimony of your walk with God today? Now that the rapture is imminent and the close of the age is already everywhere, what is the testimony of your conscience before God and men? Samuel had a unique testimony witnessed by the nation of Israel on how holily and justly he lived among them. How are you projected before God? What are your records before God in case you are to face judgment today?
In the days of Samuel, corruption was very high both in society and in the church. The sons of Eli, Hophni and Phinehas, were sinners who made men abhor the sacrifice of the Lord. They were drunkards, gluttons, lacked manners and were forceful; they were greedy and robbers in the temple, yet they were ministers in the temple. They were committing immorality with women in the temple; their father rebuked them, but they did not obey. But Samuel grew up righteously among them like a lily among thorns in a dunghill growing among dirt, yet, coming beautifully untainted and excellent to behold, that was Samuel. This is because he submitted to home training, and the words of the mother sank into him. The training Samuel received remained in his heart. All that his parents taught him and all the instructions of his mother remained in his heart and kept him from sinning against God. Samuel was different; he grew differently because of his home training.

Thought For The Day:  How precious is God’s word in your life?

Song For The Day:  Make me holy, (3x) O Lord, in the morning in the night…

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...
