TOPIC: MARY; THE YOUTH THAT LOVED THE WORD OF GOD  

TEXT: LUKE 10:38–42 
38. “Now it came to pass, as they went, that he entered into a certain village: and a certain woman named Martha received him into her house.
39. And she had a sister called Mary, which also sat at Jesus' feet, and heard his word.
40. But Martha was cumbered about much serving, and came to him, and said, Lord, dost thou not care that my sister hath left me to serve alone? bid her therefore that she help me. 
41. And Jesus answered and said unto her, Martha, Martha, thou art careful and troubled about many things: 
42. But one thing is needful: and Mary hath chosen that good part, which shall not be taken away from her.”

KEY VERSE: LUKE 10:42 “But one thing is needful: and Mary hath chosen that good part, which shall not be taken away from her.”   

Mary and Martha were the sisters of Lazarus, the man that died and was raised from the dead after four days by the Lord Jesus. The bible makes us understand that the Lord Jesus Christ loved this family so much that He came to visit one day. Martha spent time preparing food in the kitchen, while Mary listened to the word at the Master’s feet. 

Many people today are carried away by issues that are not eternally rewarding and prefer to go for worldly things that will not last. There are so many things that tend to occupy our time and energy in the service of our Lord Jesus, but one thing is needful; the word. Many Christians even spend so much time praying for hours and days without studying the word of God. 

But remember today that one thing is needful; the word of God. The word of God is the life of God. It is the breath that keeps a believer going. It is the spiritual weapon that the devil can never overcome. It is the foundation and the lifeline of a believer. It is the wisdom of God to see good success and excellence in life and ministry. 

The word has been from the beginning and will be till everlasting. On it hang all the miracles, signs, and wonders. Forever the word is settled in heaven. It is sure and steadfast. It is the life of God that keeps a believer moving on in the face of persecutions, temptations, and afflictions. 

It will never fail. It will never change. It will never go faint, and the power will never fade. Surely, forever Thy word is settled in heaven. It is time we spend quality time in the word, in fellowship, and in our devotion. It will do great things in our spiritual, physical and social life. 

Thought for the day: In the beginning was the word, and the word was with God, and the word was God.  

Song for the day: It is the word of God that sets me free.

Bible reading for the day: Luke 21-22

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...

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.

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...
