What Is Worldliness? 

Thursday 7th May 

Text: 1 John 2: 15-17. 
Key Verse: So then they that are in the flesh cannot please God. Romans 8:8. 
Worldliness refers to the lifestyle and activities of sinful men living in this world which are invented, inspired and promoted by Satan, the god of this world. These things are contrary to the word, way, and will of God, and they defile, corrupt and damn human souls in hell fire. Worldliness is living according to the dictates of the world, which is pure carnality. These include the ‘love of money’. Many people make money their god. It is their reason for living. They do many evil things to get money. They disregard God's commands and righteous demands because of the drive for money in them. "For the love of money is the root of all evil: which while some coveted after, they have erred from the faith, and pierced themselves through with many sorrows. But thou, O man of God, flee these things; and follow after righteousness, godliness, faith, love, patience, Meekness. Fight the good fight of faith, lay hold on eternal life, whereunto thou art also called, and hast professed a good profession before many witnesses." 1Timothy 6:10-12. 
Worldliness also involves the ‘love of pleasure’. Sinful activities give corrupt people pleasure. Such as alcohol, sex, smoking, dancing, wickedness, worldly parties, etc. Forsake these things. The pleasure they give are transient and temporary. Many suffer untimely death because of seeking worldly pleasures. Worldliness also involves ‘ungodly dressing and adornment’. Many sinners in the world dress to entice others and promote sin. They seek to achieve bodily beauty, attraction and commendation. They use articles of body beautification such as perfume, earrings, chains, necklace, finger rings, nose rings, bracelets, beads, they perm or Jerry curl their hair, use artificial hair such as weave-on, hair attachment, eyelashes; they paint their face, bleach their skin, tattoo their body, use lipsticks and cortex. Some believers are deceived to use wedding ring which is not recommended in Scripture, rather, its use is evil and condemned by Scripture. These constitute filthiness to the body which the Lord commands us to cleanse ourselves of them. 

Thought For The Day: Worldliness is the opposite of Holiness. 

Song For The Day: I am married to Jesus Satan leave alone…

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...
