TOPIC: DIVINE HEALTH

MEMORISE

Beloved, I wish above all things that thou mayest prosper and be in health, even as thy soul prospereth. - (3 John 2)

READ: Isaiah 55:10-11 (KJV)

10 For as the rain cometh down, and the snow from heaven, and returneth not thither, but watereth the earth, and maketh it bring forth and bud, that it may give seed to the sower, and bread to the eater:

11 So shall my word be that goeth forth out of my mouth: it shall not return unto me void, but it shall accomplish that which I please, and it shall prosper in the thing whereto I sent it.

MESSAGE

Psalm 105:37 tells us that when the Israelites were leaving Egypt, not a single one of them was feeble, meaning that the young and old were healthy and strong. Those who had suffered in the hands of the taskmasters suddenly became strong and healthy as they ate the Passover meal and prepared to leave Egypt. If God divinely healed people who had been constantly beaten and maltreated before they came out of slavery and kept their feet from being swollen for 40 years in the wilderness (Deuteronomy 8:4), He can grant you divine health as well.

No matter how long a person has been ill or how severe the sickness is, God can heal the person completely. In John 5:5-9, it took only one word from Jesus to heal a man who had been sick for 38 years in an instant. Psalm 107:20 tells us that when God sends His word, healing and deliverance follow.

Sicknesses and diseases cannot stand the power of God's word. When He sends His word, it never returns to Him without accomplishing what He has sent it to do. Today's Bible reading tells us that just as rain and snow come upon the earth's surface to water it and make it fruitful, God's word always prospers wherever He sends it.

A word from Jesus was enough to heal a nobleman's son in John 4:46-54. Jesus spoke the word where He was in Cana of Galilee, and the boy was instantly healed far away in Capernaum. God's word cannot be hindered by space or time or slowed down in any way. In Matthew 8:5-13, all that was required to heal a centurion's grievously ill servant was a word from Jesus. The Syrophoenician's daughter also experienced miraculous and instant deliverance when God released His word over her situation (Mark 7:24-30). God's word spoken through His servants and believed in faith can bring healing to the sick. However, His word, as it is written in the Bible, is also more than enough to bring a fellow healing if he or she believes.

Beloved, if you have any sickness in your body, the word of God has provided for your healing already - all you need to do is believe. Beyond believing God for healing, however, He wants you to live in divine health, as echoed by Apostle John in today's memory verse. Again, all you need to do is believe in His word. I pray that you will never experience any form of sickness henceforth, in Jesus' name. 

KEY POINT

Beyond trusting God for healing, also trust Him for divine health.

TOPIC: WHEN GOD SPEAKS

MEMORISE

And God said, Let there be light: and there was light. - (Genesis 1:3)

READ: Psalm 29:1-11 (KJV)

1 Give unto the Lord, O ye mighty, give unto the Lord glory and strength.

2 Give unto the Lord the glory due unto his name; worship the Lord in the beauty of holiness.

3 The voice of the Lord is upon the waters: the God of glory thundereth: the Lord is upon many waters.

4 The voice of the Lord is powerful; the voice of the Lord is full of majesty.

5 The voice of the Lord breaketh the cedars; yea, the Lord breaketh the cedars of Lebanon.

6 He maketh them also to skip like a calf; Lebanon and Sirion like a young unicorn.

7 The voice of the Lord divideth the flames of fire.

8 The voice of the Lord shaketh the wilderness; the Lord shaketh the wilderness of Kadesh.

9 The voice of the Lord maketh the hinds to calve, and discovereth the forests: and in his temple doth every one speak of his glory.

10 The Lord sitteth upon the flood; yea, the Lord sitteth King for ever.

11 The Lord will give strength unto his people; the Lord will bless his people with peace.

MESSAGE

In today's memory verse, God said, "Let there be light," and there was light. When He commanded light into existence, He was declaring that darkness should disappear, sorrow should give way to joy, and stagnation should give way to promotion. God's word changes lives and situations. When His word comes to a fellow, that person will experience a great turnaround in every aspect of his or her life.

Psalm 29:4 says that God's voice is powerful and full of majesty. Every time God speaks, all beings in heaven and on earth tremble to do His bidding. Since we know how powerful God's voice is, we must be careful about what He says concerning us. We must be careful to ensure that He doesn't pronounce anything negative over us because it will surely come to pass. We must also ensure that He speaks blessings over us because when He does, they will be irreversible.

You might be asking, "How can I get God to speak irreversible blessings over me?" In Genesis 27:1-4, Isaac wanted to bless Esau, and to properly position him for the blessing, he told him to get his weapons and hunt for venison in the field. He also asked him to prepare it in a way that he loved so that after eating the meal, he would bless him. Jacob, however, pretended to be Esau, his brother, and tricked their father into giving him the blessing that was meant for Esau. Later on, when Isaac discovered he had erroneously blessed Jacob, he was unable to reverse the blessing (Genesis 27:33). Hebrews 12:17 tells us that Esau's protests and tears could not reverse what Jacob had received.

Isaac wanted Esau to serve and please him before he could bless him. The same is true if you want God to bless you. People who serve God wholeheartedly and please Him in their thoughts, words, and actions always receive His blessings. A fellow cannot keep doing what his or her father hates and expect to be blessed by him. He or she cannot continue displeasing him and disobeying his instructions and expect to be looked upon favourably by him.

Beloved, does your life please God? Do you shun sin and run away from the things He hates? Do you obey His instructions willingly and promptly? If your answer to all these questions is "Yes", then you can expect Him to constantly speak His blessings over you. He will always pronounce blessings over His children in whom He is well pleased. 

PRAYER POINT

Father, please help me to live a life that pleases You always, so I can be properly positioned to receive Your irreversible blessings.

MEMORISE

Jesus answered and said unto them, Verily I say unto you, If ye have faith, and doubt not, ye shall not only do this which is done to the fig tree, but also if ye shall say unto this mountain, Be thou removed, and be thou cast into the sea; it shall be done. - (Matthew 21:21)

READ: Matthew 17:19-20 (KJV)

19 Then came the disciples to Jesus apart, and said, Why could not we cast him out?

20 And Jesus said unto them, Because of your unbelief: for verily I say unto you, If ye have faith as a grain of mustard seed, ye shall say unto this mountain, Remove hence to yonder place; and it shall remove; and nothing shall be impossible unto you.

MESSAGE

Hebrews 4:12 says that the word of God is living, powerful, and sharper than any two-edged sword. Also, John 1:1-3 tells us that all things were created by the word of God. As powerful as God's word is, however, when it is spoken in unbelief, it cannot be expected to produce results.

In (1 John 4:4), it is written that greater is He that is in you than he that is in the world. God lives within you, and He is greater than every problem or challenge that the world can throw your way. This is the absolute truth about you; you are above poverty and destruction because God's power resides in you, and you can leverage it to subdue negative situations. Despite this, unbelief can hinder the power of God from flowing through His word in your mouth.

It is possible to be a Christian and be tormented by the spirit of doubt and unbelief. What this spirit does is that it undermines the power of God's word in your heart and makes you feel that the word of God is ordinary. It also makes you begin to think that God's word is not true, thereby filling your heart with uncertainty. If the spirit of doubt and unbelief is tormenting you, I pray that it will leave you right now, in Jesus' name.

Jesus raised Jairus' daughter in Mark 5:35-43 with His word. When He got to his house, He drove out those who were weeping and commanded the dead girl to arise. Peter followed the same pattern when God used him to raise Dorcas in Acts 9:36-42; he sent the mourners out of the house and commanded the dead woman to arise.

Beloved, there is no limit to what you can achieve when you proclaim God's word in faith. As Jesus said in today's Bible reading, nothing shall be impossible to you if you speak the word of God in faith without any doubt or unbelief, God wants you to believe His word and act upon it. He wants you to go to places where there are hopeless cases so He can show the world that there is still hope through you. He wants to use you mightily and shine His light through you so that He will be glorified (Matthew 5:16). However, you must learn to trust in His word completely and proclaim it boldly over every situation you encounter. May you be a conduit of God's mighty power everywhere you go henceforth, in Jesus' name. 

KEY POINT

Doubt and unbelief undermine the power of God's word, making it ineffective in a Christian's mouth.

Open Heavens Daily Devotional by Pastor EA ADEBOYE

 OPEN HEAVEN DAILY DEVOTIONAL

 

DATE: SUNDAY MAY 17TH 2026

 

THEME: JUBILEE

 

MEMORISE: 

That then the LORD thy God will turn thy captivity, and have compassion upon thee, and will return and gather thee from all the nations, whither the LORD thy God hath scattered thee.    Deuteronomy 30:3

 

READ: Leviticus 25:25-28

25  If thy brother be waxen poor, and hath sold away some of his possession, and if any of his kin come to redeem it, then shall he redeem that which his brother sold.

26 And if the man have none to redeem it, and himself be able to redeem it;

27 Then let him count the years of the sale thereof, and restore the overplus unto the man to whom he sold it; that he may return unto his possession.

28 But if he be not able to restore it to him, then that which is sold shall remain in the hand of him that hath bought it until the year of jubile: and in the jubile it shall go out, and he shall return unto his possession.

 

MESSAGE

Jubilee means emancipation, deliverance, or restoration. In Leviticus 25:8-10, God commanded the children of Israel to observe Jubilee every 50 years. When the Year of Jubilee arrives, anyone who is bound as a slave is to be set free. Even if a fellow became bound through his or her fault or error, he or she will be set free. Furthermore, anyone who was in debt would be forgiven of the debt in the Year of Jubilee. 

We are talking about Jubilee today because God wants to set His people free from satanic bondages. He wants His people to walk in liberty in every aspect of their lives. Liberty is freedom from every form of bondage. Anyone who holds someone bound when God has declared jubilee will be fighting against God, and I am yet to see someone who fights against God and wins.

Unlike in Israel, where Jubilee was observed every 50 years in Old Testament times, if you have Jesus, you can experience Jubilee every day. Jesus came to save, deliver and restore us to God, and anyone who comes to Him will experience Jubilee to the fullest. In Christ, God has proclaimed Jubilee for you and your household, and every power of darkness that wants to keep you and anything that concerns you in bondage will be consumed by the Consuming Fire, in Jesus' name. When God makes you free, you become free indeed (John 8:36). Being free indeed' means that you are delivered from the effects of bondage. It means you have been made new, as if you were never in any bondage before. 2 Corinthians 5:17 reveals that once you are in Christ, you are a new creature. Your old record of slavery under sin and satan is wiped off, and everything becomes new. 

Jubilee, however, doesn't only mean freedom from slavery. It also means restoration of what has been forcefully or rightfully taken. In today's Bible reading, God said that if a fellow becomes poor and sells his or her possessions, and he or she is unable to recover them, the fellow is free to return to his or her possessions in the Year of Jubilee because Jubilee is also the time of restoration. I proclaim in the name above all names that everything that has been taken from you or that you have given away ignorantly will be restored to you. You will experience and enjoy divine restoration in all areas you need it, in Jesus' name.

 

KEY POINT

Anyone who is in Christ can experience Jubilee every day.

 

BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: 2 Chronicles 21-24

HYMN 6: CONQUERORS AND OVERCOMERS NOW WE ARE

Conquerors and ov¬er¬com¬ers now are we,

Thro’ the pre¬cious blood of Christ we’ve vic¬to¬ry.

If the Lord be for us, we can nev¬er fail;

Nothing ’gainst His migh¬ty pow¬er can e’er pre¬vail.

Refrain

Conquerors are we,

Thro’ the blood, thro’ the blood;

God will give us vic¬to¬ry,

Thro’ the blood, thro’ the blood;

Thro’ the Lamb for sin¬ners slain,

Yet who lives and reigns again,

More than con¬quer¬ors are we,

More than con¬quer¬ors are we.

In the name of Is¬ra¬el’s God we’ll on¬ward press,

Overcoming sin and all un¬right¬eous¬ness;

Not to us, but un¬to Him the praise shall be

For sal¬va¬tion and for blood bought vic¬to¬ry.

Unto Him that ov¬er¬com¬eth shall be giv’n

Here to eat of hid¬den man¬na sent from Heav’n;

Over yon¬der He the vic¬tor’s palm shall bear

And a robe of white and gold¬en crown shall wear.
