TOPIC: INSTRUCTIONS TO GODLY HUSBANDS (PART 2)

TEXT: EPHESIANS 5:25-27
25. Husbands, love your wives, even as Christ also loved the church, and gave himself for it;
26. That He might sanctify and cleanse it with the washing of water by the word, 
27. That He might present it to Himself a glorious church, not having spot, or wrinkle, or any such thing; but that it should be holy and without blemish. 

KEY VERSE: PROVERBS 22:24-Make no friendship with an angry man; and with a furious man thou shalt not go: 

Do Not Be Quick To Anger At Your Wife: Love is not easily provoked. Anger destroys a marriage. An angry man should not be a pastor. Woe is the life of she who has married an angry man. Her life will be tough. Her laughter will be hypocritical to please the angry man. She will hide her pain, fear and sorrow. 

Imagine the fear a mad dog gives; even though it is chained, you still pass by it with great fear. You may decide to pass another way or retreat altogether. This is how an angry man makes his family to live with him. He will neither permit mistakes as everyone does nor simple errors like adding much salt to food. Take that anger to God in prayer.    

Love is not easily provoked. When your wife does or says something wrong, make room for learning. Your home will be fantastic when you make room for people to learn from their mistakes instead of quickly getting provoked each time. Naturally, when your wife makes a mistake, she will be troubled, wondering, "What will I tell this man?” If she tells you what happened, and you say, "It is okay," she will rejoice and thank God for a wonderful husband. Do not be quick to be provoked to anger.

Do Not Be Careless And Foolish: Charity does not behave unseemly. Why do you misbehave as a fool? Why did you pour water on your wife because she made a mistake? Why did you beat your wife or throw her to the ground? You lose your respect by doing that. She thought you were a man of wisdom but is seeing folly in you. A little folly in a man esteemed to be a man of wisdom turns him into a fool.  

Do Not Be Selfish To Your Wife: Love seeks not its own. You went out, bought some roasted meat, and sat in the living room, eating it alone. You did not give your wife or children. If what you eat is good, it is also good for your wife. Do that which gives joy and satisfaction to your wife as Christ would do for the Church. 

Thought for the day: Pray that God should teach you how to love your wife.

Song for the day: Give me the grace to follow, abundant grace to follow…

Bible reading for the day: Jeremiah 47-48

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...

HOLINESS REVIVAL MOVEMENT WORLDWIDE HOREMOW DAILY DEVOTIONAL BY PASTOR PAUL RIKA INTERNATIONAL DIRECTOR. DATE: WEDNESDAY JULY 15, 2026. TOPIC: HOW TO PRAY  TEXT: JOHN 14:12-14 12. Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on Me, the works that I do shall he do also; and greater works than these shall he do; because I go unto My Father.  13. And whatsoever ye shall ask in My name, that will I do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son. 14. If ye shall ask any thing in My name, I will do it.

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...
