HOLINESS REVIVAL MOVEMENT WORLDWIDE HOREMOW

DAILY DEVOTIONAL BY PASTOR PAUL RIKA INTERNATIONAL DIRECTOR.

TOPIC: YOUTHS, BE DEAD TO SELF 

TEXT: MARK 10:46-49
46. And they came to Jericho: and as he went out of Jericho with his disciples and a great number of people, blind Bartimæus, the son of Timæus, sat by the highway side begging.
47. And when he heard that it was Jesus of Nazareth, he began to cry out, and say, Jesus, thou Son of David, have mercy on me.
48. And many charged him that he should hold his peace: but he cried the more a great deal, Thou Son of David, have mercy on me.
49. And Jesus stood still, and commanded him to be called. And they call the blind man, saying unto him, Be of good comfort, rise; he calleth thee. 

KEY VERSE: NUMBERS 33:52 “Then ye shall drive out all the inhabitants of the land from before you, and destroy all their pictures, and destroy all their molten images, and quite pluck down all their high places”.

God is interested in the youths and as a result He is calling on them to surrender fully to Him. This is a great call with eternal reward, therefore cooperate with the leader God has given us in this ministry, Holiness Revival Movement Worldwide. The youths are distracted by many things in life. The peerage and material things of life.

If you understand that Jesus is the owner of HOREMOW and is the one calling you to work for Him, you will shun all distractions. The blind Bartimaeus, the son of Timaeus, when he heard that Jesus of Nazareth was the one passing his way, he cried out for Jesus to have mercy on him. All attempts, even from the disciples of Jesus could not distract him. 

At the end, Jesus responded and he received his sight. Do not allow anyone, even among the overseers to distract you from standing on the holy course. Those who are determined to overcome the tactics of Satan must focus their attention on Jesus. When Jesus called the blind Bartimaeus he did something worth emulating. He cast away his garment, rose up and went to Jesus. 

You must cast away those things weighing you down in sin. You must dissociate from evil friends, those who want to discourage you by telling you that the cost of holiness is too high. They are agents of darkness who will want to find fault with your stand in God or in the leadership of the movement in order to remove you.

Also, God has recruited you into His holy service, get rid of past memories, be dead to self: you must destroy all past pictures taken in sin. Remove all the long nails, bushy Mustache, dreadlocks and any defiling thing and be clean to please God.

Thought for the day: Now that you are a new creature, get rid of evil associates.

Song for the day: I am standing on the word of God, the word of God is power.

Bible reading for the day: Proverbs 30-31

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...

My Spirit Will Follow You To Do My Work.  Sunday 16th November  Text: Acts 16: 9-10 Key verse: Mark 16: 20 “And they went forth and preached everywhere, the Lord working with them and confirming the word with signs following, Amen.” Continuation of revelation of Brother Dieudonne:  The Lord said, “I am here to gather My people before the trumpet sounds. My Father will order the angels to sound the trumpet. Be ready! Do My work. Gather My people.” When He said that, He insisted and said, “I am gathering My people with My Spirit. When My Spirit enters, if you obey My word, My Spirit will follow you to do My work. People will listen to you and follow you. They are My chosen. If they listen to My word and reject it, let them go. Evangelize, preach My word to everybody, I am here gathering My people before My coming. If the time was not finished, would the animals have come to Noah? The time is...

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...
