TOPIC: BEWARE WHO YOU FOLLOW AS YOUR SPIRITUAL MENTOR 

TEXT: 2 TIMOTHY 2:17-18
17. And their word will eat as doth a canker: of whom is Hymenæus and Philetus; 
18. Who concerning the truth have erred, saying that the resurrection is past already; and overthrow the faith of some. 

KEY VERSE: ACTS  17:11 These were more noble than those in Thessalonica, in that they received the word with all readiness of mind, and searched the scriptures daily, whether those things were so. 

When these mighty men and women are in error, all others make a shipwreck of their faith. Many young ministers and ministries seek mentorship from established ministers and ministries. The unfortunate thing is that many of these young ministers do not examine the scriptures for themselves. They do not subject their mentors to the scrutiny of the scriptures. 

The yardstick of their judgment is success and prosperity, multiplied membership and global establishment. They follow these mentors blindly and ruin themselves and those they lead. We must beware because we are in an era in which many go to acquire power from Satan to operate the Christian ministry!, I Timothy 5:15 For some are already turned aside after Satan. 

The yardstick of measuring every minister to know whether he is of God or no is a personal life of righteousness and holiness. Success in ministry is measured by a consistent life of holiness and righteousness together with abounding fruits of Christian service, begotten and established in holiness and righteousness. Without holiness, the Christian life and service, ministerial success and achievements are vanities and a vexation of the spirit. 

Dwelling with God eternally is the supreme goal of the believer, and only righteousness and holiness qualify for this. Stop being a blind follower if you want to go to heaven. Follow a professed minister of God as long as he follows Christ. 1 Corinthians 11:1 Be ye followers of me, even as I also am of Christ. Seek the truth to be free from error that will jeopardise your Christian life. Avoid false and heretic preachers. 

Thought Forthe day:  Test all spirits. Don’t follow any pastor to hell.

Song For the day: Follow, follow, I will follow Jesus, anywhere He leads me I will follow Him.

Bible reading for the day: Jeremiah 4-5

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...
