Services Rendered On Sunday

Tuesday 9th June 

Text: Matthew 12:1-14
Key Verse: Exodus 20:8. 

“Remember the sabbath day, to keep it holy.”
Service rendered on Sundays, means duties or works done on Sunday. Jesus and His disciples were going somewhere and passed through somebody’s farm and began to pluck the ears of the corn to eat, because they were hungry, the pharisees were not happy with them, because they plucked the ear of the corn on Sabbath day, which is like working on the Sabbath day. They had no problem with entering the man’s farm to pluck the corn, because the law covered it at that time. It was allowed among the Jews. But this is not practicable among us because we are in heterogenous society. We are in a community of different cultures and laws binding us. The pharisees were not happy with the disciples of Jesus for plucking the corn on the Sabbath day, the day of rest and worship which no activities should be done. They brought the matter to Jesus on the Sabbath day, that the disciples didn’t honour the Sabbath day and He did not question them. 
It is like a child who came home with hunger, but the food that was available belonged to his father, “should we respect food for father and allow the child to perish with hunger? Or we trust father will understand when he comes to know that the child was hungry and has eaten his food.” Do we honour the Sabbath day more than God and allow the work of God to suffer, which means God has to stand still on the Sabbath day. For example, we have a law in our country, that, if you are driving, you should keep to right, but our police men, if they are pursuing somebody, a criminal, they do not obey that law, but they can follow anywhere to achieve what they want to achieve. That shows that they make the law for orderliness, but the law they make should not stop them from doing their work. And therefore, services rendered to God and to humanity on Sunday is not sinful as long as it is not for personal gain. for example, medical workers who are working in the hospital to save life, and our security men/women who are working to protect lives and properties on Sundays, are not sinning.

Thought For The Day: God is greater than the Sabbath day

Song For The Day: I am ready to obey thy word, thy word

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...
