EVERY WORD OF GOD FOR DAILY LIVING BY: PASTOR PAUL RIKA, INTERNATIONAL DIRECTOR Holiness Revival Movement Worldwide (HOREMOW) TUESDAY JULY 11, 2023 TEXT: PSALM 107: 23-32 23They that go down to the sea in ships, that do business in great waters;24These see the works of the LORD, and his wonders in the deep.25For he commandeth, and raiseth the stormy wind, which lifteth up the waves thereof.26They mount up to the heaven, they go down again to the depths: their soul is melted because of trouble.27They reel to and fro, and stagger like a drunken man, and are at their wits' end.28Then they cry unto the LORD in their trouble, and he bringeth them out of their distresses.29He maketh the storm a calm, so that the waves thereof are still.30Then are they glad because they be quiet; so he bringeth them unto their desired haven.31Oh that men would praise the LORD for his goodness, and for his wonderful works to the children of men!32Let them exalt him also in the congregation of the people, and praise him in the assembly of the elders. Key verse: Psalm 54:2 Hear my prayer O God. Give ears to the words of my mouth. I am Pastor Samuel Gida. God saved me from death in an accident in July, 2021. I did not sustain injuries in the accident but I was in pain and could neither sit nor stand. The brethren had to charter a vehicle and physically carried my wife and I into it back to Sokoto. The deeper life pastor in Mafara brought a bone setter to help set my wife’s broken leg because the leg was dangling loosely; only connected together by the flesh. The bone setter tried to align the broken leg, tied it and travelled with us to Sokoto in order to complete the job. Unfortunately, he only passed the night with us in Sokoto and left the next day after charging exorbitant fees. EVERY WORD OF GOD FOR DAILY LIVING BY: PASTOR PAUL RIKA, INTERNATIONAL DIRECTOR Holiness Revival Movement Worldwide (HOREMOW) MONDAY JULY 10, 2023 TEXT: PSALM 107: 1-9 1O give thanks unto the LORD, for he is good: for his mercy endureth for ever.2Let the redeemed of the LORD say so, whom he hath redeemed from the hand of the enemy;3And gathered them out of the lands, from the east, and from the west, from the north, and from the south.4They wandered in the wilderness in a solitary way; they found no city to dwell in.5Hungry and thirsty, their soul fainted in them.6Then they cried unto the LORD in their trouble, and he delivered them out of their distresses.7And he led them forth by the right way, that they might go to a city of habitation.8Oh that men would praise the LORD for his goodness, and for his wonderful works to the children of men!9For he satisfieth the longing soul, and filleth the hungry soul with goodness. Key verse: Psalm 44:4 Thou art my King O God. Command deliverances for Jacob. I am Pastor Samuel Gida. The Lord has done great and wonderful things for my family. I appreciate God for delivering us from a ghastly motor accident on 24th July, 2021, just before the international holiness youth conference. Before we embarked on the journey, I had a dream that we went to the park for the journey to Abuja but we missed the first and second vehicles and the third vehicle we entered over- speeding such that he overtook the first and second vehicle. I woke my wife up and narrated the dream to her. We prayed about it and cancelled accidents. Surprisingly, when we got to the motor park in the morning, we discovered that it was the third vehicle that we entered and as the driver moved from the park, he started over- speeding. I reminded my wife of the dream and prayed again with her in the vehicle. EVERY WORD OF GOD FOR DAILY LIVING BY: PASTOR PAUL RIKA, INTERNATIONAL DIRECTOR Holiness Revival Movement Worldwide (HOREMOW) SUNDAY JULY 9, 2023 TEXT: 2 KINGS 4: 1-7 1Now there cried a certain woman of the wives of the sons of the prophets unto Elisha, saying, Thy servant my husband is dead; and thou knowest that thy servant did fear the LORD: and the creditor is come to take unto him my two sons to be bondmen.2And Elisha said unto her, What shall I do for thee? tell me, what hast thou in the house? And she said, Thine handmaid hath not any thing in the house, save a pot of oil.3Then he said, Go, borrow thee vessels abroad of all thy neighbours, even empty vessels; borrow not a few.4And when thou art come in, thou shalt shut the door upon thee and upon thy sons, and shalt pour out into all those vessels, and thou shalt set aside that which is full.5So she went from him, and shut the door upon her and upon her sons, who brought the vessels to her; and she poured out.6And it came to pass, when the vessels were full, that she said unto her son, Bring me yet a vessel. And he said unto her, There is not a vessel more. And the oil stayed.7Then she came and told the man of God. And he said, Go, sell the oil, and pay thy debt, and live thou and thy children of the rest. Key verse: 2 Kings 4: 3 “Then he said, Go, borrow thee vessels abroad of all thy neighbours, even empty vessels; borrow not a few.” Uncommon miracles can manifest occasionally through the Holy Ghost and should not become doctrines. However, some strange practices have come to stay and are moving from church to church. It is of the devil. They give you false testimonies of handkerchiefs and aprons. Note that when the Lord asked Moses to speak to the rod but he struck it instead, water actually came out for the people to drink but Moses missed the promised land because God was not been glorified because without faith it is impossible to please Him. Now that you are leading your congregation away from faith to substances and physical things, they can get healed, but you won’t go to the promised land because you have led the people away from faith, from the hearing and prayer of faith, you have led them to physical things; Water has come for them to drink; material things but for the water of life they will not have it. 7/8/2023
THE CROSS IS CENTRAL TO CHRISTIANITYEVERY WORD OF GOD FOR DAILY LIVING BY: PASTOR PAUL RIKA, INTERNATIONAL DIRECTOR Holiness Revival Movement Worldwide (HOREMOW) SATURDAY JULY 8, 2023 Key verse: 1 Peter 3:14 But and if ye suffer for righteousness' sake, happy are ye: and be not afraid of their terror, neither be troubled. TEXT: LUKE 14:25-27 25And there went great multitudes with him: and he turned, and said unto them,26If any man come to me, and hate not his father, and mother, and wife, and children, and brethren, and sisters, yea, and his own life also, he cannot be my disciple.27And whosoever doth not bear his cross, and come after me, cannot be my disciple. God calls Jesus, that people despised, My righteous servant. This same Jesus that people spoke against, criticized and cast stones upon. There was no iniquity or wickedness in Him, but why are they speaking against Him. Why were they talking evil and planning to do him evil constantly? This is the Founder of Christianity. The cross takes a central place in Christianity. You need to know this in case you are looking for ease. Your thought might be, why shouldn’t people praise me with all my goodness? I thought people should be clapping that I am not doing wickedness anymore and that I am now godly? What is happening to my spouse? EVERY WORD OF GOD FOR DAILY LIVING BY: PASTOR PAUL RIKA, INTERNATIONAL DIRECTOR Holiness Revival Movement Worldwide (HOREMOW) FRIDAY JULY 7, 2023 TEXT: EZEKIEL 36:25-27 25Then will I sprinkle clean water upon you, and ye shall be clean: from all your filthiness, and from all your idols, will I cleanse you.26A new heart also will I give you, and a new spirit will I put within you: and I will take away the stony heart out of your flesh, and I will give you an heart of flesh.27And I will put my spirit within you, and cause you to walk in my statutes, and ye shall keep my judgments, and do them. Key verse: Ephesians 5: 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.” God demands holiness from His people because holiness is His nature. Everything associated with Him is holy. His name is holy; His word is holy; His angels are holy; His abode, heaven, is holy; His saints are holy. When Satan and his angels came short of His holiness standard, He drove them away from heaven and condemned them to everlasting fire. Heaven is eternally holy. Jesus came to this world to save men from sin and make them holy so they can be with him in His eternal dwelling place. EVERY WORD OF GOD FOR DAILY LIVING BY: PASTOR PAUL RIKA, INTERNATIONAL DIRECTOR Holiness Revival Movement Worldwide (HOREMOW) THURSDAY JULY 6, 2023 TEXT:PHILIPPIANS 2:9,10 9Wherefore God also hath highly exalted him, and given him a name which is above every name:10That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth; Key verse: Colossians 2:15 “And having spoiled principalities and powers, He made a shew of them openly, triumphing over them in it.” Satan may use a human agent to inflict you with a plague. But see the devil behind the human agent and war against him and his spiritual forces, using spiritual weapons given to believers in the scripture. You will win over him. Your victory over Satan may also bring deliverance to the human agent who is under his captivity. Some false ministers advise afflicted people to read some portions of the book of psalms in the night or early morning; some others advise people to take a particular posture, face a particular direction, indulge in some strange or sinful activities for their prayers to be answered. This is occultism and true believers must steer clear of that. EVERY WORD OF GOD FOR DAILY LIVING BY: PASTOR PAUL RIKA, INTERNATIONAL DIRECTOR Holiness Revival Movement Worldwide (HOREMOW) WDNESDAY JULY 5, 2023 TEXT: MATTHEW 12:22-28 22Then was brought unto him one possessed with a devil, blind, and dumb: and he healed him, insomuch that the blind and dumb both spake and saw.23And all the people were amazed, and said, Is not this the son of David?24But when the Pharisees heard it, they said, This fellow doth not cast out devils, but by Beelzebub the prince of the devils.25And Jesus knew their thoughts, and said unto them, Every kingdom divided against itself is brought to desolation; and every city or house divided against itself shall not stand:26And if Satan cast out Satan, he is divided against himself; how shall then his kingdom stand?27And if I by Beelzebub cast out devils, by whom do your children cast them out? therefore they shall be your judges.28But if I cast out devils by the Spirit of God, then the kingdom of God is come unto you. Key verse: Psalms 24: 1 The earth is the LORD'S, and the fulness thereof; the world, and they that dwell therein. Do you see God in the knowledge of life; in the beneficial knowledge of life? Do you know that Satan hates everything that is good? He is never for the benefit of mankind. He does not do anything that is good, except he will use it as a bait. He will use a good thing which is from God and put his evil in it. But for good, good does not come from Satan. Therefore, do not always attribute every good thing that goes on in this life to Satan. Even among unbelievers, the God that made them wants them to be healthy. If they die, how would they hear the gospel? How would they hear the message? Does not the Bible say that it is not the will of God that any man should perish but that all should come to the knowledge of God and repentance? Would not God therefore do all that is required to keep them alive until they can have opportunity to come to repentance? So why do you think that the people among them who are treating them in their sicknesses and diseases are all demonic? Demonism and curative medicine are two different things. Do not listen to ignorant men and church leaders. EVERY WORD OF GOD FOR DAILY LIVING BY: PASTOR PAUL RIKA, INTERNATIONAL DIRECTOR Holiness Revival Movement Worldwide (HOREMOW) TUESDAY JULY 4, 2023 TEXT: 1 SAMUEL 2: 12-17 12Now the sons of Eli were sons of Belial; they knew not the LORD.13And the priests' custom with the people was, that, when any man offered sacrifice, the priest's servant came, while the flesh was in seething, with a fleshhook of three teeth in his hand;14And he struck it into the pan, or kettle, or caldron, or pot; all that the fleshhook brought up the priest took for himself. So they did in Shiloh unto all the Israelites that came thither.15Also before they burnt the fat, the priest's servant came, and said to the man that sacrificed, Give flesh to roast for the priest; for he will not have sodden flesh of thee, but raw.16And if any man said unto him, Let them not fail to burn the fat presently, and then take as much as thy soul desireth; then he would answer him, Nay; but thou shalt give it me now: and if not, I will take it by force.17Wherefore the sin of the young men was very great before the LORD: for men abhorred the offering of the LORD. Key verse: 1 Samuel 2: 12. “Now the sons of Eli were sons of Belial; they knew not the Lord" Eli’s sons, Hophni and Phinehas were unholy ministers that misused the power of their position for personal gain and sexual immorality. Their father, Eli the high priest, failed to discipline or remove them from the priesthood. Eli confronted his sons about their evil actions but failed to remove them from the ministry. By failing to take action, Eli was defying God’s holy nature and His high standard for the priesthood. God’s word declares that no immoral minister may serve as a right or acceptable leader of God’s people. He must be removed from leadership. EVERY WORD OF GOD FOR DAILY LIVING BY: PASTOR PAUL RIKA, INTERNATIONAL DIRECTOR Holiness Revival Movement Worldwide (HOREMOW) MONDAY JULY 3, 2023 TEXT: GENESIS 24: 1-9 1And Abraham was old, and well stricken in age: and the LORD had blessed Abraham in all things.2And Abraham said unto his eldest servant of his house, that ruled over all that he had, Put, I pray thee, thy hand under my thigh:3And I will make thee swear by the LORD, the God of heaven, and the God of the earth, that thou shalt not take a wife unto my son of the daughters of the Canaanites, among whom I dwell:4But thou shalt go unto my country, and to my kindred, and take a wife unto my son Isaac.5And the servant said unto him, Peradventure the woman will not be willing to follow me unto this land: must I needs bring thy son again unto the land from whence thou camest?6And Abraham said unto him, Beware thou that thou bring not my son thither again.7The LORD God of heaven, which took me from my father's house, and from the land of my kindred, and which spake unto me, and that sware unto me, saying, Unto thy seed will I give this land; he shall send his angel before thee, and thou shalt take a wife unto my son from thence.8And if the woman will not be willing to follow thee, then thou shalt be clear from this my oath: only bring not my son thither again.9And the servant put his hand under the thigh of Abraham his master, and sware to him concerning that matter. Key verse: Proverbs 18: 22 “Whoso findeth a wife findeth a good thing and obtaineth favour of the LORD.” Question: Why did Abraham ask the servant to go to his relatives and find a wife for the son, knowing that his family were idol worshippers even as the Canaanites? Answer: Abraham was in the land of Canaan and Canaan was cursed by Noah. They were a cursed people and their lives were terrible. Rebecca pleaded that Jacob should not marry among the Canaanites because Esau’s marriage to them affected both Isaac and Rebecca. The relatives of Abraham knew the living God in a way and acknowledged Him except that they also worshipped idols. So, they were not exactly like the Canaanites; they were better because they had the knowledge of God. Again, Laban spoke about God because they knew Him but they were not true worshippers in the sense of righteousness and holiness. Abraham wanted Isaac to marry from there because no other people in the world were righteous. No other community of people were like Abraham. The Lord was starting a life of faith through Abraham and he knew that his people had the fear of God. Abraham knew that if Isaac got a wife from there it would be okay since they would flow freely with the plan of God. EVERY WORD OF GOD FOR DAILY LIVING BY: PASTOR PAUL RIKA, INTERNATIONAL DIRECTOR Holiness Revival Movement Worldwide (HOREMOW) SUNDAY JULY 2, 2023 TEXT: 2 CORINTHIANS 1:1-4 1Paul, an apostle of Jesus Christ by the will of God, and Timothy our brother, unto the church of God which is at Corinth, with all the saints which are in all Achaia: 2Grace be to you and peace from God our Father, and from the Lord Jesus Christ.3Blessed be God, even the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of mercies, and the God of all comfort; 4Who comforteth us in all our tribulation, that we may be able to comfort them which are in any trouble, by the comfort wherewith we ourselves are comforted of God. Key Verse: 1 Corinthians 10:13 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” God wants to know those who will serve him unconditionally. He is looking for someone to reward or present before Satan as His and that nothing will take him away from Him. The person who will eventually be with Him must not easily be shaken. Job was tried and rewarded. Daniel and the three Hebrews children were also tried and rewarded. Jesus in the flesh was tried and was exalted, given a name that is above every other name and is now seated at the right hand of the Father in heaven; and Stephen was tried and rewarded with heaven. In their temptations, they depended on God. EVERY WORD OF GOD FOR DAILY LIVING BY: PASTOR PAUL RIKA, INTERNATIONAL DIRECTOR Holiness Revival Movement Worldwide (HOREMOW) Saturday July 1, 2023 TEXT: ISAIAH 2:1-3 1The word that Isaiah the son of Amoz saw concerning Judah and Jerusalem.2 And it shall come to pass in the last days, that the mountain of the Lord's house shall be established in the top of the mountains, and shall be exalted above the hills; and all nations shall flow unto it. 3 And many people shall go and say, Come ye, and let us go up to the mountain of the Lord, to the house of the God of Jacob; and he will teach us of his ways, and we will walk in his paths: for out of Zion shall go forth the law, and the word of the Lord from Jerusalem. Key verse: Acts 13:47 For so hath the Lord commanded us, saying, I have set thee to be a light of the Gentiles, that thou shouldest be for salvation unto the ends of the earth. The Lord brought this Movement into the world as a light shining in darkness. I have set thee as a light. He raised up this Movement in this backslidden age to show the Church of Christ the right way to heaven. Holiness Revival Movement Worldwide (non-denominational) was inaugurated in Gwagwalada, Abuja, by sixty people from different states in Nigeria. From that day, meetings began on chapter basis. At first, because we did not want to interfere with the activities of the denominational churches around us, the Movement met once a month but we noticed that this had no impact on the lives of the people, we began to meet twice a month. |
