EVERY WORD OF GOD FOR DAILY LIVING BY: PASTOR PAUL RIKA, INTERNATIONAL DIRECTOR Holiness Revival Movement Worldwide (HOREMOW) SUNDAY MARCH 31, 2024 Text: Psalm 77:1-13 1I cried unto God with my voice, even unto God with my voice; and he gave ear unto me. 2 In the day of my trouble I sought the Lord: my sore ran in the night, and ceased not: my soul refused to be comforted. 3 I remembered God, and was troubled: I complained, and my spirit was overwhelmed. Selah. 4 Thou holdest mine eyes waking: I am so troubled that I cannot speak. 5 I have considered the days of old, the years of ancient times. 6 I call to remembrance my song in the night: I commune with mine own heart: and my spirit made diligent search. 7 Will the Lord cast off for ever? and will he be favourable no more? 8 Is his mercy clean gone for ever? doth his promise fail for evermore? 9 Hath God forgotten to be gracious? hath he in anger shut up his tender mercies? Selah. 10 And I said, This is my infirmity: but I will remember the years of the right hand of the most High. 11 I will remember the works of the Lord: surely I will remember thy wonders of old. 12 I will meditate also of all thy work, and talk of thy doings. 13 Thy way, O God, is in the sanctuary: who is so great a God as our God? Key Verse: But the other answering rebuked him, saying, Dost not thou fear God, seeing t hou art in the same condemnation? Luke 23:40 Jesus was crucified on the cross. Remember His painful cries because of great weights of human sin and wickedness. Jesus, who was God in the flesh cried because of pain. Not because of any weapon or energy of men because of the load of human sin. He was a man of sorrows and acquainted with grief. Sorrows and pain in His life because of the sins of men. Would you think to add one more sorrow to Him by immorality? Would you want to add more to that sorrowful Savior; add more strokes and say it is not enough for Him by going into witchcraft, idolatry and pleasures of flesh? Do you want to smite Jesus again? Do you not pity Jesus? Do you want Him to cry? You say His cry is not enough. Do you want to despise His cries and pains? EVERY WORD OF GOD FOR DAILY LIVING BY: PASTOR PAUL RIKA, INTERNATIONAL DIRECTOR Holiness Revival Movement Worldwide (HOREMOW) SATURDAY MARCH 30, 2024 Text: Jeremiah 45: 1 - 5 1The word that Jeremiah the prophet spake unto Baruch the son of Neriah, when he had written these words in a book at the mouth of Jeremiah, in the fourth year of Jehoiakim the son of Josiah king of Judah, saying, 2 Thus saith the Lord, the God of Israel, unto thee, O Baruch: 3 Thou didst say, Woe is me now! for the Lord hath added grief to my sorrow; I fainted in my sighing, and I find no rest. 4 Thus shalt thou say unto him, The Lord saith thus; Behold, that which I have built will I break down, and that which I have planted I will pluck up, even this whole land. 5 And seekest thou great things for thyself? seek them not: for, behold, I will bring evil upon all flesh, saith the Lord: but thy life will I give unto thee for a prey in all places whither thou goest. Key Verse: Let us not be desirous of vain glory, provoking one another, envying one another. Galatians 5:26 Do not go the way of pride. Do not promote your name by insisting on doing things you are not supposed to do, just to let people know you are there. Let nothing be done through strife or vain glory but in lowliness of mind let each esteem others better than themselves. Esteem others according to their level of training, level of experience, level of grace, level of anointing and level of power. Learn it. Do nothing because of vain glory for people to recognize you; you will be an abomination to God, an obstacle to God. You will be a destroyer to the work of God's kingdom because He is the one that makes differences in anointing. If as a short man under a mango tree, with ripe mango fruits, hanging down but higher than you and here is your brother who is much taller that can easily pluck the mangoes. Will you not ask him to help you? 'Brother, you can pluck these mangoes. Please help me because all my efforts, even standing on my toes cannot pluck them.' EVERY WORD OF GOD FOR DAILY LIVING BY: PASTOR PAUL RIKA, INTERNATIONAL DIRECTOR Holiness Revival Movement Worldwide (HOREMOW) FRIDAY MARCH 29, 2024 Text: Acts 8:35-38 35 Then Philip opened his mouth, and began at the same scripture, and preached unto him Jesus.36 And as they went on their way, they came unto a certain water: and the eunuch said, See, here is water; what doth hinder me to be baptized? 37 And Philip said, If thou believest with all thine heart, thou mayest. And he answered and said, I believe that Jesus Christ is the Son of God. 38 And he commanded the chariot to stand still: and they went down both into the water, both Philip and the eunuch; and he baptized him. Key Verse: When they heard this, they were baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus. Acts 19:5 What does it mean to be baptized in the name of Jesus Christ? Is it no more in the name of the Father, Son and Holy Ghost? Has Peter changed it? By what authority? Can a servant of God change the word of God? Can a disciple of Christ change the authority of his Lord? There were three kinds of baptism going on at that time: the baptism of John unto repentance, the baptism of the Hellenists who were Pharisees that made Gentile converts into Judaism and the baptism authorized by Jesus. The people that gathered before Peter on the day of Pentecost might have undergone the first two baptisms already but not yet the baptism in the authority of Jesus. EVERY WORD OF GOD FOR DAILY LIVING BY: PASTOR PAUL RIKA, INTERNATIONAL DIRECTOR Holiness Revival Movement Worldwide (HOREMOW) THURSDAY MARCH 28, 2024 Text: Acts 2: 36 - 41 36 Therefore let all the house of Israel know assuredly, that God hath made the same Jesus, whom ye have crucified, both Lord and Christ.37 Now when they heard this, they were pricked in their heart, and said unto Peter and to the rest of the apostles, Men and brethren, what shall we do? 38 Then Peter said unto them, Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost. 39 For the promise is unto you, and to your children, and to all that are afar off, even as many as the Lord our God shall call. 40 And with many other words did he testify and exhort, saying, Save yourselves from this untoward generation. 41 Then they that gladly received his word were baptized: and the same day there were added unto them about three thousand souls. Key Verse: And of his fullness have we all received and grace for grace. John 1:16 Repent from sin because sin is evil against God. Repentance towards God is required because you have done evil against God and you want to stop it. Not hypocritical repentance because if you know God is angry with you for doing those things, you will not try it again. However, for those that have repented, you will discover that it is not by your power. You need to be helped, hence the necessity of faith towards our Lord Jesus Christ. Look to Me and be ye saved all the ends of the earth, for I am God, besides Me there is no Savior. God commanded Moses to make a serpent of brass and raise it up on a pole that whosoever looks on it shall be delivered from the poison of the serpent. As Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness even so must the Son of man be lifted up, that whosoever believeth on Him should not perish but have eternal life. EVERY WORD OF GOD FOR DAILY LIVING BY: PASTOR PAUL RIKA, INTERNATIONAL DIRECTOR Holiness Revival Movement Worldwide (HOREMOW) WEDNESDAY MARCH 27, 2024 Text: Numbers 11:16-17, 24-25 16 And the Lord said unto Moses, Gather unto me seventy men of the elders of Israel, whom thou knowest to be the elders of the people, and officers over them; and bring them unto the tabernacle of the congregation, that they may stand there with thee.17 And I will come down and talk with thee there: and I will take of the spirit which is upon thee, and will put it upon them; and they shall bear the burden of the people with thee, that thou bear it not thyself alone. 24 And Moses went out, and told the people the words of the Lord, and gathered the seventy men of the elders of the people, and set them round about the tabernacle. 25 And the Lord came down in a cloud, and spake unto him, and took of the spirit that was upon him, and gave it unto the seventy elders: and it came to pass, that, when the spirit rested upon them, they prophesied, and did not cease. Key Verse: Distributing to the necessity of saints, given to hospitality Romans 12:13 There are differences in the levels of anointing. You may be struggling to cast out a demon but someone with greater anointing may just walk in and that demon will say, 'Sorry, I am going' because he has checked the anointing and authority that has come in. The disciples asked, “Why could we not cast it out?” You will need to fast and pray but before the Lord, the demon departed. In medicine, some doctors do not handle certain cases but refer them to consultants. You need to acknowledge and recognize higher ministers in your life and ministry. Do not destroy the people of God by answering questions wrongly and giving unscriptural counsels. EVERY WORD OF GOD FOR DAILY LIVING BY: PASTOR PAUL RIKA, INTERNATIONAL DIRECTOR Holiness Revival Movement Worldwide (HOREMOW) TUESDAY MARCH 26, 2024 Text: 2 Kings 10: 26 - 30 26 And they brought forth the images out of the house of Baal, and burned them.27 And they brake down the image of Baal, and brake down the house of Baal, and made it a draught house unto this day. 28 Thus Jehu destroyed Baal out of Israel. 29 Howbeit from the sins of Jeroboam the son of Nebat, who made Israel to sin, Jehu departed not from after them, to wit, the golden calves that were in Bethel, and that were in Dan. 30 And the Lord said unto Jehu, Because thou hast done well in executing that which is right in mine eyes, and hast done unto the house of Ahab according to all that was in mine heart, thy children of the fourth generation shall sit on the throne of Israel. Key Verse: Thus Jehu destroyed Baal out of Israel. 2 Kings 10:28 God is not unrighteous to forget your work and labors of love, how much you have labored for the saints and do minister. Continue in that spirit for surely, He will come to reward you. God is a rewarder, but He must reward those He called; whose names are in the Book of Life. If your name is not there where will your works be recorded? Else you were there but you later withdrew. You were really admitted into the school but you withdrew because you did not want to continue anymore. You withdrew or maybe the school dismissed you. If you later go back to school and start reading and working again whereas your file has been closed and your name is no more in the active register of the school. Where are they going to record that work? EVERY WORD OF GOD FOR DAILY LIVING BY: PASTOR PAUL RIKA, INTERNATIONAL DIRECTOR Holiness Revival Movement Worldwide (HOREMOW) MONDAY MARCH 25,2024 Text: John 9: 1 - 5 1And as Jesus passed by, he saw a man which was blind from his birth. 2 And his disciples asked him, saying, Master, who did sin, this man, or his parents, that he was born blind? 3 Jesus answered, Neither hath this man sinned, nor his parents: but that the works of God should be made manifest in him. 4 I must work the works of him that sent me, while it is day: the night cometh, when no man can work. 5 As long as I am in the world, I am the light of the world. Key Verse: As long as I am in the world, I am the light of the world. John 9:5 I am Pastor Matthew Zoeger and I am grateful to share this wonderful testimony from Liberia. On 6th of October, 2023, my 14-year-old daughter, named Hannah Koffa who lives with me informed me that she could no longer see. I questioned her to know whether the eyes had been giving problem but she said, “No.” We tested her and asked series of questions then, it became clear that she had gone blind. We took her to the JFK hospital. Three tests were done but they could not find the problem with the eyes and ordered for a brain scan. We went to another hospital and did two more tests. The brain scan report was negative and the doctor's report was that she has no chance of seeing again because the problem could not be determined. We were in prayers while going up and down to the hospitals. A three-days fasting and prayer was observed in my home to battle the situation. Afterwards, HOREMOW prayer team joined us in fasting and vigil while my family continued with the vigil the next day. On Friday, October 13, we joined 13 brethren that usually hold vigil for the Movement weekly.

EVERY WORD OF GOD FOR DAILY LIVING BY: PASTOR PAUL RIKA, INTERNATIONAL DIRECTOR Holiness Revival Movement Worldwide (HOREMOW) SUNDAY MARCH 24, 2024 Text: Isaiah 53: 3 - 5 3 He is despised and rejected of men; a man of sorrows, and acquainted with grief: and we hid as it were our faces from him; he was despised, and we esteemed him not. 4 Surely he hath borne our griefs, and carried our sorrows: yet we did esteem him stricken, smitten of God, and afflicted. 5 But he was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our iniquities: the chastisement of our peace was upon him; and with his stripes we are healed. Key Verse: And Jesus answering saith unto them, Have faith in God. Mark 11:22 When you desire healing and deliverance from satanic affliction and attack, you use personal effort, medical effort and drugs. You try other means, but you forget Jesus. Child of God, how could you forget Jesus? Bring back Jesus to your active memory. The Lord that saved you is with you. Remember Jesus at that time. Some of these drugs may not work well or may delay. You worry, cry and get discouraged because you forget that Jesus is the Healer and Deliverer. Jesus is the supreme Healer. He is the deliverer. He heals using or not using drugs. He heals in all the terms of healing. He heals in all the perfection of healing. His healing is presently available. Remember Jesus at the time of your sickness; He is the deliverer so turn to Him and be not discouraged. Have you tried Jesus? Don't you know He is a healer and deliverer? Why do you rely on drugs alone? Are you discouraged and resigned to death? Remember Jesus because He bore our sins and sickness and by His stripes we are healed. Jesus purposely handled every matter of sickness. Jesus is the healer of all sicknesses beyond drugs. He does not need to use a man or some means to heal. Remember Jesus when you are sick; He bore our sicknesses. Remember His stripes; claim, believe and pray through for it. This is your benefit as a child of God. 3/24/2024 Jesus Is Your Healer And DelivererEVERY WORD OF GOD FOR DAILY LIVING BY: PASTOR PAUL RIKA, INTERNATIONAL DIRECTOR Holiness Revival Movement Worldwide (HOREMOW) SUNDAY MARCH 24, 2024 Text: Isaiah 53: 3 - 5 3 He is despised and rejected of men; a man of sorrows, and acquainted with grief: and we hid as it were our faces from him; he was despised, and we esteemed him not.4 Surely he hath borne our griefs, and carried our sorrows: yet we did esteem him stricken, smitten of God, and afflicted. 5 But he was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our iniquities: the chastisement of our peace was upon him; and with his stripes we are healed.

EVERY WORD OF GOD FOR DAILY LIVING BY: PASTOR PAUL RIKA, INTERNATIONAL DIRECTOR Holiness Revival Movement Worldwide (HOREMOW) SATURDAY MARCH 23, 2024 Text: Genesis 38: 13 - 19 13 And it was told Tamar, saying, Behold thy father in law goeth up to Timnath to shear his sheep.14 And she put her widow's garments off from her, and covered her with a vail, and wrapped herself, and sat in an open place, which is by the way to Timnath; for she saw that Shelah was grown, and she was not given unto him to wife. 15 When Judah saw her, he thought her to be an harlot; because she had covered her face. 16 And he turned unto her by the way, and said, Go to, I pray thee, let me come in unto thee; (for he knew not that she was his daughter in law.) And she said, What wilt thou give me, that thou mayest come in unto me? 17 And he said, I will send thee a kid from the flock. And she said, Wilt thou give me a pledge, till thou send it? 18 And he said, What pledge shall I give thee? And she said, Thy signet, and thy bracelets, and thy staff that is in thine hand. And he gave it her, and came in unto her, and she conceived by him. 19 And she arose, and went away, and laid by her vail from her, and put on the garments of her widowhood. Key Verse: When Judah saw her, he thought her to be an harlot; because she had covered her face. Genesis 38:15 Ungodly dressing and adornment destroy the sense of holiness, shamefacedness and lives. Many preachers called by God have been destroyed by indecent dresses of members. There are instances where a pastor sleeps with his members or rapes a person. Many heaven-minded believers have been destroyed by seductive dressing. This was one of the ways that Satan destroyed churches and it is still happening in our time. When true believers who want to serve God in holiness associate with people with indecent dressing and lifestyle, they either copy them or lust after it. Then, Satan destroys them by that. Satan wants to penetrate into HOREMOW. This is one of the ways Satan destroyed other churches which we are aware of. They stood for holiness and righteousness before but were pulled down by corrupt dressing. Therefore, the Lord Jesus Christ has warned that He does not want similar seduction in HOREMOW and on our bodies because it is defilement. Believers must desist from this type of dressing. The Lord is warning the women in particular but I am including the men in this warning so that they should take care of their dressing as well because lust is also possible in the heart of the women when they see ungodly dressing and appearance in men.

Key Verse: So shall they be life unto thy soul and grace to thy neck. Proverbs 3:22 Jesus turned water into wine. It was an unusual manifestation of the Holy Ghost that happens once in a generation according to the mind of God. If you have a wedding and you need drinks, pray and plan in advance. Even if there is lack of drinks, pray for God to supply. Do not ask people to fetch water and fill water pots to turn them to wine as Jesus did. The seven sons of Sceva tried such and demons handled them very well. So, do not do such things. How do these signs follow those that believe? In my name they shall lay hands upon the sick and the sick shall recover; the normal way. Pray for the sick, lay hands and call upon God in the name of Jesus. Believe and it shall be done. “For whosoever shall say to this mountain, be thou removed and be thou cast into the sea and shall not doubt in his heart but shall believe that what he said shall come to pass; he shall have whatsoever he sayeth”. Mountain signifies anything that blocks your way. Furthermore, in the ministry of Jesus we observe that at a time His garment healed the sick. Like the woman with issue of blood; many people thronged Jesus and many people touched His garment but her faith did it. She believed that if she touched the hem of Jesus' garment she will be healed. When Jesus asked, “who touched me?” Peter wondered; everybody is pushing you and you ask of who touched You? There was a special touch of faith.

EVERY WORD OF GOD FOR DAILY LIVING BY: PASTOR PAUL RIKA, INTERNATIONAL DIRECTOR Holiness Revival Movement Worldwide (HOREMOW) THURSDAY MARCH 21, 2024 Text: Proverbs 1: 2 - 7 Key Verse: For I give you good doctrine, forsake ye not my law. Proverbs 4:2 Put your faith in God not in aprons and handkerchiefs. There are unique miracles of God that He does not continue with, and you do not ask Him to repeat them because He chooses to do them by Himself. He chooses to release those miracles and they may happen once in a generation. He revealed His will in them. He caused the red sea to dry up. Will you keep asking the red sea to part? No. God has not promised to part rivers for you, such that when you want to cross the river you ask God to divide it for you. It is unique; it was done by Moses, Joshua, Elijah and Elisha. That ended the issue of the sea parting. So, do not seek to repeat it; instead of looking for a way to cross the river, you then say that God should divide it. You will pray there until you perish because He has not given you that promise. When Satan told Jesus, “Jump down from this mountain if you are the son of God, for God has said He will give His angels charge over you, that they will bare you with their hands that you do not dash your foot against the stone.” Jesus said, “It is written, thou shall not tempt the Lord your God. The Lord told Moses to smite the rock for water to come out. Later God said, “Smite the rock and water shall come out.” Does the rock produce water for the church now? Have you heard that the church of Christ gathered together in a great congregation, their water finished, and they went and spoke to the rock and water came out?

Key Verse: For I say, through the grace given unto me, to every man that is among you, not to think of himself more highly than he ought to think; but to think soberly, according as God hath dealt to every man the measure of faith. Romans 12:3 We are not given the same level of faith. Therefore, why do you struggle to be great. You do everything carnally, yet you will not reach there. It is not possible with your struggles, Whichever way you do surgical operation on a man to become a woman, you cannot get a perfect woman from a man; however intelligent a surgeon you are. Whatever your struggles, you cannot become like that man because when the centurion asked Paul if he was a Roman citizen? He said, 'Yes I am.' He replied, 'I purchased citizenship with a great sum.' Paul said, 'I was free born.' It is because the Lord has raised him up to deliver you, your family, your church and your people from darkness but your flesh, fear and pride is blocking it and so your people remain in darkness and doom. EVERY WORD OF GOD FOR DAILY LIVING BY: PASTOR PAUL RIKA, INTERNATIONAL DIRECTOR Holiness Revival Movement Worldwide (HOREMOW) TUESDAY MARCH 19, 2024 Text: Genesis 35: 16 - 20 16 And they journeyed from Bethel; and there was but a little way to come to Ephrath: and Rachel travailed, and she had hard labour.17 And it came to pass, when she was in hard labour, that the midwife said unto her, Fear not; thou shalt have this son also. 18 And it came to pass, as her soul was in departing, (for she died) that she called his name Benoni: but his father called him Benjamin. 19 And Rachel died, and was buried in the way to Ephrath, which is Bethlehem. 20 And Jacob set a pillar upon her grave: that is the pillar of Rachel's grave unto this day. Key Verse: Lo, children are an heritage of the LORD; and the fruit of the womb is His reward. Psalm 127:3 Be wise in taking decisions. Someone may decide not to give birth to many children because he may not be able to cater for them. Some of them may end up as vagabonds and not even go to school. God is not against that wisdom because He does not want you to have wayward children. However, God gave Jacob many children; twelve boys and a girl. Jacob was fruitful indeed and multiplied and replenished the earth. There are people that desire to raise large families like Jacob. They are not sinning. If there are enough resources and they decide to raise large families, it is not sinful. The one that gives birth to one or two is not sinning either. Let everyone be convinced of what he can do. The scripture does not compel one couple to replenish the earth. Let each family apply wisdom. Many women die during childbirth because their bodies became so weak that they couldn't pass through anymore. Did they go to heaven? We are not clear. Do not misapply scripture. Don't give birth to children that will cause trouble in society; you will be responsible for making human settlement difficult by wayward children, Eli died because of his wayward children. EVERY WORD OF GOD FOR DAILY LIVING BY: PASTOR PAUL RIKA, INTERNATIONAL DIRECTOR Holiness Revival Movement Worldwide (HOREMOW) MONDAY MARCH 18,2024 Text: 1 Corinthians 14: 24 - 29 14 For if I pray in an unknown tongue, my spirit prayeth, but my understanding is unfruitful. 15 What is it then? I will pray with the spirit, and I will pray with the understanding also: I will sing with the spirit, and I will sing with the understanding also. 16 Else when thou shalt bless with the spirit, how shall he that occupieth the room of the unlearned say Amen at thy giving of thanks, seeing he understandeth not what thou sayest? 17 For thou verily givest thanks well, but the other is not edified. 18 I thank my God, I speak with tongues more than ye all: 19 Yet in the church I had rather speak five words with my understanding, that by my voice I might teach others also, than ten thousand words in an unknown tongue. 20 Brethren, be not children in understanding: howbeit in malice be ye children, but in understanding be men. 21 In the law it is written, With men of other tongues and other lips will I speak unto this people; and yet for all that will they not hear me, saith the Lord. 22 Wherefore tongues are for a sign, not to them that believe, but to them that believe not: but prophesying serveth not for them that believe not, but for them which believe. 23 If therefore the whole church be come together into one place, and all speak with tongues, and there come in those that are unlearned, or unbelievers, will they not say that ye are mad? 24 But if all prophesy, and there come in one that believeth not, or one unlearned, he is convinced of all, he is judged of all: 25 And thus are the secrets of his heart made manifest; and so falling down on his face he will worship God, and report that God is in you of a truth. 26 How is it then, brethren? when ye come together, every one of you hath a psalm, hath a doctrine, hath a tongue, hath a revelation, hath an interpretation. Let all things be done unto edifying. 27 If any man speak in an unknown tongue, let it be by two, or at the most by three, and that by course; and let one interpret. 28 But if there be no interpreter, let him keep silence in the church; and let him speak to himself, and to God. 29 Let the prophets speak two or three, and let the other judge. Key Verse: How is it then, brethren? When ye come together, every one of you hath a psalm, hath a doctrine, hath a tongue, hath a revelation, hath an interpretation. Let all things be done unto edifying. From our key verse, a psalm, doctrine, tongue or revelation is the word of God. Some stand only on 1 Corinthians 14:26 doctrinal teaching of God's word but psalms (songs), revelations (visions), tongues and interpretations (prophecy) are part of God's word. Doctrines are from the written word, tongues and interpretation are prophetic while revelation is the revealed word. These are the forms the word takes so as you come to service, you will see various manifestations of the word of God. Give place to it. Do not refuse singing; it is the word of God ministering to people. The doctrine quoted from scripture is the written word. Then tongues and interpretation of tongues are prophecy and revelation. That also is the word of God. The Lord may come through dream, vision or revelation: The Lord took me to hell, heaven or to another city and showed me this or that. Bring it. it is the word of God in the church. Bring it, we need to hear. It is the word of God. So, let all things be done unto edifying. The psalm, doctrine, tongue and interpretation, prophecy will edify and build up the church of Christ. 3/17/2024 The Value of RevelationsEVERY WORD OF GOD FOR DAILY LIVING BY: PASTOR PAUL RIKA, INTERNATIONAL DIRECTOR Holiness Revival Movement Worldwide (HOREMOW) SUNDAY MARCH 17,2024 Text: Exodus 32: 7 - 8 7 And the Lord said unto Moses, Go, get thee down; for thy people, which thou broughtest out of the land of Egypt, have corrupted themselves:8 They have turned aside quickly out of the way which I commanded them: they have made them a molten calf, and have worshipped it, and have sacrificed thereunto, and said, These be thy gods, O Israel, which have brought thee up out of the land of Egypt. Key Verse: Where there is no vision the people perish; but he that keepeth the law, happy is he. Proverbs 29:18 Except that God revealed the shocking backsliding of Israel to Moses, he would not have believed. 'Aaron cannot allow that.' It was Aaron that requested for the gold earrings to make an idol for them. 'But I have other people there. How could they all compromise?' Nobody, except you for this holiness. Stand strong Moses because the people's hearts are faulty; if any of them will reach heaven, it will be through you. As you see them, the devil can terrify them and human pressure can overcome them. If you are not there, the hope for your people is very slim. Nay, there is no hope. 'Get thee down, they have quickly corrupted themselves.' How old is HOREMOW that you have corrupted yourselves? That a preacher can embezzle money and his conscience does not touch him. Pastors steal directly, tell lies, falsify records and carry out personal business with God's money. When did this Movement start that you can connive and agree with fellow pastors to do evil, not fearing that your soul shall be doomed to hell? Have you forgotten so quickly all the revelations you had opportunity to hear? You no longer think of heaven and hell. What a surprise! They have corrupted themselves and turned aside from the way. |
