EVERY WORD OF GOD FOR DAILY LIVING
BY: PASTOR PAUL RIKA, INTERNATIONAL DIRECTOR Holiness Revival Movement Worldwide (HOREMOW) WEDNESDAY, January 11, 2023 TEXT: 2 Peter 1:19-21 “We have also a more sure word of prophecy; whereunto ye do well that ye take heed, as unto a light that shineth in a dark place, until the day dawn, and the day star arise in your hearts:” “Knowing this first, that no prophecy of the scripture is of any private interpretation.” For the prophecy came not in old time by the will of man: but holy men of God spake as they were moved by the Holy Ghost.” KEY VERSE: Luke 17: 32 Remember Lot's wife I am Sister Eva Awenle Anab, from Lapaz unit, Accra, Ghana. God led me to HOREMOW through a series of dreams and events. While in secondary school I loved the dressing of Deeper Life sisters and I attended Retreat programs occasionally although I was a Methodist. I was just so happy the way pastor Kumuyi preached and taught about sanctification and holiness. I learned a lot from them; how to live your life day to day holy. I followed their teachings because I loved their lifestyle. I didn't know why they do not wear earrings, but I joined them in not wearing it. The teachings of pastor Kumuyi helped me a lot to walk in purity, in holiness. I practiced it with all my heart. Concerning adornment, I had no scriptural understanding so when I later got married, I went back to wearing them. I didn't perm my hair as a youth; I left it natural, and I used the ceiling fan thread for plaiting, but I went back when I got married in the church of Christ. I went back to wearing of earrings because I never heard that the earrings would take someone to hell fire. I never heard anything like that. The day I permed my natural hair, I dreamt that I was falling into a deep darkness. When I got up, I prayed but I didn't understand it. In 2019, I heard the testimony of a Jehovah witness, Brother Kobena, on radio and later on YouTube. He was taken to heaven and hell and brought back to testify. EVERY WORD OF GOD FOR DAILY LIVING
BY: PASTOR PAUL RIKA, INTERNATIONAL DIRECTOR Holiness Revival Movement Worldwide (HOREMOW) TUESADY, JANUARY 10, 2023 TEXT: PSALMS 107: 1-16 1. O give thanks unto the Lord, for He is good: for His mercy endureth forever. 2. Let the redeemed of the Lord say so, whom He hath redeemed from the hand of the enemy; 3. And gathered them out of the lands, from the east, and from the west, from the north, and from the south. 4. They wandered in the wilderness in a solitary way; they found no city to dwell in. 5. Hungry and thirsty, their soul fainted in them. 6. Then they cried unto the Lord in their trouble, and He delivered them out of their distresses. 7. And He led them forth by the right way, that they might go to a city of habitation. 8. Oh that men would praise the Lord for His goodness, and for His wonderful works to the children of men! 9. For He satisfieth the longing soul, and filleth the hungry soul with goodness. 10. Such as sit in darkness and in the shadow of death, being bound in affliction and iron; 11. Because they rebelled against the words of God, and contemned the counsel of the most High: 12. Therefore He brought down their heart with labour; they fell down, and there was none to help. 13. Then they cried unto the Lord in their trouble, and He saved them out of their distresses. 14. He brought them out of darkness and the shadow of death, and brake their bands in sunder. 15. Oh that men would praise the Lord for His goodness, and for His wonderful works to the children of men! 16. For He hath broken the gates of brass, and cut the bars of iron in sunder. Key Verse: Psalms 107: 21 “Oh that men would praise the LORD for his goodness, and for his wonderful works to the children of men!.” Here is a testimony narrated by Pastor Cyril Utomi: thank God for delivering me from untimely death in August 2018 on my way to Holiness campground, Kwali. There were nine other persons with me in the vehicle. As we approached Souka, one of the rear tyres suddenly exploded and I lost control of the vehicle which then somersaulted and ended inside one of the gutters by the highway. When I regained consciousness, God had brought helpers to rescue us. I was bleeding profusely from deep wounds on the head and my face was badly battered. I praise God for saving the lives of all ten of us. A similar accident occurred around the same place the next day and all eleven occupants of that vehicle. died. I was rushed to University of Abuja Teaching Hospital, Gwagwalada, by the FRSC officers. I give thanks to God for many miracles He wrought for me: Preservation of my life; I did not break any bone. No blood transfusion was done despite the heavy blood loss and several surgeries; three surgical operations by Ophthalmologists, an extensive plastic surgery and another minor surgery to remove extraneous material. HOREMOW project money in my possession was miraculously preserved. I recovered my two handsets in good order a week after the accident. I enjoyed favour from the medical team, from the leadership of HOREMOW. 1/9/2023
IT IS TIME TO RECOVER YOURSELFEVERY WORD OF GOD FOR DAILY LIVING
BY: PASTOR PAUL RIKA, INTERNATIONAL DIRECTOR Holiness Revival Movement Worldwide (HOREMOW) MONDAY JANUARY 9, 2023 TEXT: EPHESIANS 5:13-17 13 But all things that are reproved are made manifest by the light: for whatsoever doth make manifest is light. 14 Wherefore he saith, Awake thou that sleepest, and arise from the dead, and Christ shall give thee light. 15 See then that ye walk circumspectly, not as fools, but as wise, 16 Redeeming the time, because the days are evil. 17 Wherefore be ye not unwise but understanding what the will of the Lord is. Key Verse: Ephesians 5: 14 Wherefore he saith, Awake thou that sleepest, and arise from the dead, and Christ shall give thee light. Do not allow the devil to pull down your prayer and study life through busy life or to affect you badly through laziness. Samson through carelessness became blind. Samson, will your blind eyes be opened again? You allowed the devil to pluck it out. You were so careless and now your sight is gone. How will you recover, now that Satan has cut-short your ministry? This is for our caution. Please, watch out. It will take discipline to stay by the Bible and to pray. Now that the television and the handsets have taken over, watch it! These have taken over your prayer life and you don't have time for God any longer. Know that the spirit of death is pursuing you. Samson, the Philistines are upon your life! Evil spirits are running after you to take away spirituality from your life. Jesus said, “Peter, Satan has desired to have you, to sift you as wheat. EVERY WORD OF GOD FOR DAILY LIVING
BY: PASTOR PAUL RIKA, INTERNATIONAL DIRECTOR Holiness Revival Movement Worldwide (HOREMOW) SUNDAY, JANUARY 8, 2023 TEXT: JEREMIAH 29:11-14 11. For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, saith the Lord, thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you an expected end. 12. Then shall ye call upon Me, and ye shall go and pray unto Me, and I will hearken unto you. 13. And ye shall seek Me, and find Me when ye shall search for Me with all your heart. 14. And I will be found of you, saith the Lord: and I will turn away your captivity, and I will gather you from all the nations, and from all the places whither I have driven you, saith the Lord; and I will bring you again into the place whence I caused you to be carried away captive. Key Verse: Luke 18:1 “And he spake a parable unto them to this end, that men ought always to pray, and not to faint” God has prepared someone somewhere for you. He wants you to believe and rely on Him to lead you to that person. When you have surrendered your life to Him, He expects you to be asking Him in fervent prayer for His choice for you. The following are ways you can receive your future partner from God. The Need for Importunate Prayer for God's Choice: In Luke 11:5-8, Jesus told a parable of a man who had a friend. This man was visited by a stranger at midnight, and he had no food to give that visitor. He went to his friend that night and knocked saying, 'Friend, I have a visitor but have nothing to set before him. Can you give me some food for my visitor? Due to his importunate knocking, he wearied his friend who though was not willing, woke up and met his need. God is saying, if you don't give up, He will give you a good marriage partner.

BY: PASTOR PAUL RIKA, INTERNATIONAL DIRECTOR Holiness Revival Movement Worldwide (HOREMOW) SATURDAY JANUARY 7, 2023 TEXT: 1 CORINTHIANS 10:11-15 11 Now all these things happened unto them for examples: and they are written for our admonition, upon whom the ends of the world are come.12 Wherefore let him that thinketh he standeth take heed lest he fall. 13 There hath no temptation taken you but such as is common to man: but God is faithful, who will not suffer you to be tempted above that ye are able; but will with the temptation also make a way to escape, that ye may be able to bear it. 14 Wherefore, my dearly beloved, flee from idolatry. 15 I speak as to wise men; judge ye what I say. Key Verse: 1 Peter 5: 8 “Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour” Today's study is from the Divine revelation testimony of Sister Finda Sengova: “Again, I saw people sitting on the internet cyber-café. I was shocked because it is just a means of communication to us humans. I said, “Why do people go to hell or not make rapture because of the internet?” Satan laughed again, he laughed, and the laugh would echo, and he said, “Internet is a means of taking your attention from God.” I was shocked, I was cold I said, “What has the internet to do with the Bible?” He said, “I made it, I did it so it can confuse you and take your mind away from Christ.” He showed me youths, they looked like Asians, I also saw youths from Africa and Europe. Large crowds of them were seated but they were crying. I asked, “Why are you people crying, why didn't you make the rapture?” One of them said, “Because of the internet. We are born again Christians, we profess to love Jesus, but when we communicate through the Facebook, the words we say are not Christian words, the pictures we post are not Christian pictures, we want to be like people of the world, so we compete with them over the internet. We go to our Google, we watch and do the things that are not supposed to be watched and done as Christians, that is why we could not make the rapture.” 1/6/2023
THE STATE OF THE CHURCH NOWEVERY WORD OF GOD FOR DAILY LIVING
BY: PASTOR PAUL RIKA, INTERNATIONAL DIRECTOR Holiness Revival Movement Worldwide (HOREMOW) FRIDAY JANUARY 6, 2023 TEXT: Mark 7:6-9, 13 6. He answered and said unto them, Well hath Esaias prophesied of you hypocrites, as it is written, This people honoureth Me with their lips, but their heart is far from Me. 7. Howbeit in vain do they worship Me, teaching for doctrines the commandments of men. 8. For laying aside the commandment of God, ye hold the tradition of men, as the washing of pots and cups: and many other such like things ye do. 9. And He said unto them, Full well ye reject the commandment of God, that ye may keep your own tradition. 13. Making the word of God of none effect through your tradition, which ye have delivered: and many such like things do ye. Key Verse: Philippians 2:21 For all seek their own, not the things which are Jesus Christ's. The present state of the world has affected the church greatly. As the world comes to an end, evil and wickedness has heightened. The Corona virus pandemic (COVID 19) caused great devastation and desolation worldwide from which many nations are yet to fully recover. Moral decadence, widespread corruption, collapse of societal norms and values, upsurge in demonism, occultism and witchcraft, aggravated inflation and severe economic depression, violent crimes, kidnapping, terrorism and fanaticism are the order of the day. Isaiah 1: 4, 9, 15 4 Ah sinful nation, a people laden with iniquity, a seed of evildoers, children that are corrupters: they have forsaken the Lord, they have provoked the Holy One of Israel unto anger, they are gone away backward. 9 Except the Lord of hosts had left unto us a very small remnant, we should have been as Sodom, and we should have been like unto Gomorrah. 15 And when ye spread forth your hands, I will hide mine eyes from you: yea, when ye make many prayers, I will not hear: your hands are full of blood.

BY: PASTOR PAUL RIKA, INTERNATIONAL DIRECTOR Holiness Revival Movement Worldwide (HOREMOW THURSDAY JANUARY 5, 2023 TEXT: REVELATION 17: 1-4 1 And there came one of the seven angels which had the seven vials, and talked with me, saying unto me, Come hither; I will shew unto thee the judgment of the great whore that sitteth upon many waters: 2 With whom the kings of the earth have committed fornication, and the inhabitants of the earth have been made drunk with the wine of her fornication. 3 So he carried me away in the spirit into the wilderness: and I saw a woman sit upon a scarlet coloured beast, full of names of blasphemy, having seven heads and ten horns. 4 And the woman was arrayed in purple and scarlet colour, and decked with gold and precious stones and pearls, having a golden cup in her hand full of abominations and filthiness of her fornication: Key Verse: Proverbs 7: 10 And, behold, there met him a woman with the attire of an harlot, and subtle of heart. This study is on outward dressing of believers and Christian leaders. Ensure you do not wear any cloth that is sub-standard. Discipline yourself in your outward appearance. The scriptures have spoken a lot against the use of jewellery; rings, chains, earrings, necklace and so forth. Satan has turned to putting jewels and rings on clothes and clothing materials these days. Do you know that precious stones and dazzling clothes were the dressing of the harlot in our scriptural text today? It makes the cloth shine like stars. Since they are not heavenly stars, their glory in human dressing and adornment is a disturbance to our environment. Remove those stones. Discipline yourself that no single shining stone will be on your clothes. Determine to be natural. Destroy the shining clothes you had before you knew Jesus, not minding the cost. Do not keep them in your box because they can eventually cause backsliding. In the same way, Christian men should avoid tight-fitting trousers, tight-fitting T-shirts and body hugs, public use of knickers, chains, rings and jewellery. Men should avoid punk hair, twisted hair and all ungodly hairstyles, not befitting of godliness EVERY WORD OF GOD FOR DAILY LIVING
BY: PASTOR PAUL RIKA, INTERNATIONAL DIRECTOR Holiness Revival Movement Worldwide (HOREMOW WEDNESDAY JANUARY 4, 2023 TEXT: Numbers 27:16-17 16 Let the Lord, the God of the spirits of all flesh, set a man over the congregation, 17 Which may go out before them, and which may go in before them, and which may lead them out, and which may bring them in; that the congregation of the Lord be not as sheep which have no shepherd. Key Verse: John 10:27 My sheep hear My voice, and I know them, and they follow Me. “It is Jesus. Jesus is speaking. It is not Pastor Paul Rika speaking. It is not Pastor Paul Rika, it is Jesus. It is Jesus. Jesus! Jesus! Jesus! Have mercy. Have mercy. Have mercy. Jesus is speaking. It is not Pastor. It is not Pastor. Jesus is the One speaking. Have mercy. Have mercy. Have mercy Jesus.” During the marriage conference of 2015, a memorable incidence occurred as Pastor Paul Rika was speaking to participants during break time. Sister Josephine Zechariah of Kaduna chapter saw in an open vision that it was the Lord Jesus speaking to the brethren and not Pastor Paul Rika. Overwhelmed by the peculiar vision, she tried to quietly draw her husband's attention to this. Suddenly, the Holy Ghost fell on her, and she began to prophesy in tears with repeated pleas for mercy from the Lord. Much later, she gave a stirring testimony of her supernatural experience. Her testimony is presented here: 1/3/2023
JOIN THE GREAT MEN OF FAITHEVERY WORD OF GOD FOR DAILY LIVING BY: PASTOR PAUL RIKA, INTERNATIONAL DIRECTOR Holiness Revival Movement Worldwide (HOREMOW) TUESDAY JANUARY3, 2023 TEXT: JEREMIAH 29: 11-12 11 For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, saith the Lord, thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you an expected end. 12 Then shall ye call upon me, and ye shall go and pray unto me, and I will hearken unto you. Key Verse: 1 Kings 3:5 “In Gibeon the LORD appeared to Solomon in a dream by night: and God said, Ask what I shall give thee. God is a prayer-answering God, and He invites people to pray to Him. Asking and receiving is a good relationship God wants to establish with men. He wants to establish a relationship with you – a relationship of asking and receiving. Psalm 65:2 “O Thou that hearest prayer, unto Thee shall all flesh come.” “O Thou that hearest prayer…” – That is the testimony of people. People know God as God that hears prayers, and they say that unto Him shall all flesh come. Every member of the family should learn to come to God – the father should come to Him, the mother should come to Him, the children should come to Him, because he is the God that hears prayers. Every member of the Church should know God as the one that hears prayers. The Church is serving the God that hears prayers, and to Him all of us should come. 1/2/2023
GREATER POWER FOR YOUR DELIVERANCEMONDAY JANUARY 02, 2023 TEXT: ISAIAH 49: 24-26 Key Verse: 1 JOHN 3: 8 …for this purpose the Son of God was manifested that he might destroy the works of the devil. The children of God have superior power over witchcraft and occultism. While Satan wields these lies over men to keep them bound, the plans of God is for our deliverance from every satanic captivity. Satan wants to keep man in ignorance of the greater power available to set him free. Pharaoh was also deceived to believe in what they knew only (Exodus 5: 1-2). Even the witches and wizards of that day did not know that greater power existed; they did not know about the true God. Even as they said, 'who is God, I know not the Lord.' 1/1/2023
BEWARE OF LOSING A GREAT MINISTRYEVERY WORD OF GOD FOR DAILY LIVING BY: PASTOR PAUL RIKA, INTERNATIONAL DIRECTOR Holiness Revival Movement Worldwide (HOREMOW) SUNDAY, JANUARY 01, 2023 TEXT: 1 CORINTHIANS 1: 3-10 Key Verse: Revelation 3: 11, 'Behold, I come quickly: hold that fast which thou hast, that no man take thy crown.' God has brought us into a great ministry. He has sought us out and brought us in His own divine way. We have to be careful not to lose the blessings of this great calling. We are here to render acceptable service for Him, and He will surely reward us for our service. There are those who nearly lost out, such as Jonah, Onesimus, the Levites at the time of Moses. These nearly missed the divine call and instruction, but were restored by the mercies of God, so that they could redeem themselves from destruction. Many people reject God due to carnal wisdom, impatience, emotional feelings, pressure of men etc. Though they are called by God, they failed, and begin to act like those who were not called, yet they ran. The grace of God recovered, Onesimus, and Jonah to the place of acceptable service, as well as the Levites who served under Aaron, yet they could not have taken the priesthood which was given to Aaron; but they could render acceptable service. Onesimus became profitable again. |
