THEME: TRANSFER OF ANOINTING 3

MEMORISE

Insomuch that they brought forth the sick into the streets, and laid them on beds and couches, that at the least the shadow of Peter passing by might overshadow some of them.

Acts 5:15

READ : Acts 5:12-16

Acts 5:12 And by the hands of the apostles were many signs and wonders wrought among the people; (and they were all with one accord in Solomon's porch.

Acts 5:13 And of the rest durst no man join himself to them: but the people magnified them.

Acts 5:14 And believers were the more added to the Lord, multitudes both of men and women.)

Acts 5:15 Insomuch that they brought forth the sick into the streets, and laid them on beds and couches, that at the least the shadow of Peter passing by might overshadow some of them.

Acts 5:16 There came also a multitude out of the cities round about unto Jerusalem, bringing sick folks, and them which were vexed with unclean spirits: and they were healed every one.

MESSAGE 

Over the past two days we have discussed conduction and convection as methods of transferring anointing. Today, we will discuss a third method called radiation'. Radiation in this context refers to when anointing is transferred through the air without any form of physical contact. This is the highest form of transferring of anointing.

We see the transfer of anointing by radiation in Acts

5:12-16 where Peter did not touch the sick at all; they were only laid on the floor and his shadow healed them. Anointing can be transferred from the preacher on the altar to someone sitting in the congregation or even through a television set, radio, phone and so on.

With the millions of people who attend our programmes in the Redemption Camp, it is impractical to lay hands on everyone, so God increased His anointing upon me and made it possible for me to just wave my hands from the altar and even people at the back of the auditorium would be healed. As the crowd grew even more, God increased the anointing so that it could be transferred through a combination of both radiation and conduction. Now when I wave my hands and pray on people's handkerchiefs, those handkerchiefs become anointed and the Lord works miracles through them.

There was a fellow who came to one of our programmes during which, as led by the Lord, I said, "Whatever garment you are wearing today is anointed". The following week, the man was going to work in his car and there was a crowd blocking his way, so he parked to find out what happened. He saw that a vehicle had knocked someone down and the fellow was dead. He suddenly remembered that the jacket he was wearing was the one he wore on the Holy Ghost night, so he pushed the people aside, took off his jacket, laid it on the dead man, and the fellow got up. Anointing was transferred to the cloth by radiation, then the cloth transferred the anointing to the dead fellow by

conduction.

PRAYER POINT

Father, please anoint me so powerfully that just by waving my hands, the sick would get healed.

BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: 1 Corinthians 10-13

AUTHOR: PASTOR E.A. ADEBOYE

HYMN 15: PASSME NOT, O GENTLE SAVIOUR 

1. Pass me not, O gentle Savior,

Hear my humble cry;

While on others Thou art calling,

Do not pass me by.

Chorus:

Savior, Savior,

Hear my humble cry;

While on others Thou art calling,

Do not pass me by.

2. Let me at Thy throne of mercy

Find a sweet relief,

Kneeling there in deep contrition;

Help my unbelief.

3. Trusting only in Thy merit,

Would I seek Thy face;

Heal my wounded, broken spirit,

Save me by Thy grace.

4. Thou the Spring of all my comfort,

More than life to me,

Whom have I on earth beside Thee?

Whom in heav'n but Thee?

OPEN HEAVENS DAILY DEVOTIONAL 

DATE: THURSDAY NOVEMBER 30TH, 2023.

TOPIC: TRANSFER OF ANOINTING II

MEMORISE:

“So that from his body were brought unto the sick handkerchiefs or aprons, and the diseases departed from them, and the evil spirits went out of them.” 

Acts 19:12

READ: ACTS 19:11-12 (KJV)

11 And God wrought special miracles by the hands of Paul:

12 So that from his body were brought unto the sick handkerchiefs or aprons, and the diseases departed from them, and the evil spirits went out of them.

MESSAGE:

Another way by which the anointing can be transferred from an anointed person to someone who needs it is by convection. Just think of how car batteries are charged. Dead batteries absorb enough power to supply electricity to your car. In the same way, an anointed man or woman can pray on a handkerchief or oil, send it to the place where the anointing is needed, and miracles would begin to happen through that medium. This is because it has become charged with anointing. In our Bible reading today, we see a very good example of the transfer of anointing by convection. Handkerchiefs or aprons that had contacted anointing from the body of Paul were used to heal many sick people and to drive out evil spirits.

I remember the first time I transferred anointing by convection. I had just returned from a journey overseas and was tired. One of my daughters came to me asking that I come and pray for her grandmother, who had just been operated on, but because of old age, the wound refused to heal. I was too tired to go with her to the hospital, so I prayed on a handkerchief and gave it to her to lay it on her grandmother. She did as I said and by the following day, not only was the grandmother healed, the doctors could not even find the scar from the surgery. The handkerchief transferred the power of healing. You must note, however that this is a higher form of transfer of anointing than conduction.

If you have just been newly anointed, you may need to spend quality time praying on the medium through which you want to transfer the anointing. As you grow in the anointing, you would get to the point where you can just pray a simple prayer on the medium and it would become anointed. You can reach the point where the medium becomes charged just by touching it. In Acts 19:11-12, the Bible did not say that Apostle Paul prayed on the handkerchiefs and aprons; he only touched them while using them and they became charged, but that was when he had gotten to the point where God was doing special miracles by his hands.

PRAYER POINT:

Father, anoint me so powerfully that anything I touch would also become anointed.

BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: 1 CORINTHIANS 5-9

AUTHOR PASTOR E.A. ADEBOYE 

HYMNAL:  25 - THE GREAT PHYSICIAN NOW IS NEAR

1. The great Physician now is near,

The sympathising Jesus;

He speaks the drooping heart to cheer,

Oh, hear the voice of Jesus.

REFRAIN: 

Sweetest note in seraph song,

Sweetest name on mortal tongue;

Sweetest carol ever sung,

Jesus, blessed Jesus. 

2. Your many sins are all forgiven,

Oh, hear the voice of Jesus;

Go on your way in peace to heaven,

And wear a crown with Jesus.

3. All glory to the risen Lamb!

I now believe in Jesus;

I love the blessed Saviour's name,

I love the name of Jesus.

4. His name dispels my guilt and fear,

No other name but Jesus;

Oh! how my soul delights to hear

The charming name of Jesus.

LETS PRAY 🙏

 Psalms 89:1 (KJV)  I will sing of the mercies of the LORD for ever: with my mouth will I make known thy faithfulness to all generations. May the Lord by His mercy perform a miracle in your life that will give you a voice to sing of the mercy of the Lord and to declare His faithfulness in Jesus mighty name.

MEMORISE:

“And Joshua the son of Nun was full of the spirit of wisdom; for Moses had laid his hands upon him: and the children of Israel hearkened unto him, and did as the LORD commanded Moses.” 

Deuteronomy 34:9

READ: NUMBERS 27:18-23 (KJV)

18 And the LORD said unto Moses, Take thee Joshua the son of Nun, a man in whom is the spirit, and lay thine hand upon him;

19 And set him before Eleazar the priest, and before all the congregation; and give him a charge in their sight.

20 And thou shalt put some of thine honour upon him, that all the congregation of the children of Israel may be obedient.

21 And he shall stand before Eleazar the priest, who shall ask counsel for him after the judgment of Urim before the LORD: at his word shall they go out, and at his word they shall come in, both he, and all the children of Israel with him, even all the congregation.

22 And Moses did as the LORD commanded him: and he took Joshua, and set him before Eleazar the priest, and before all the congregation:

23 And he laid his hands upon him, and gave him a charge, as the LORD commanded by the hand of Moses.

MESSAGE:

Anointing, just like electricity, obeys certain natural laws and can be transferred by way of conduction.

Transfer of anointing by conduction is when the anointed fellow has physical contact with the person who needs the anointing. This can be through a handshake or laying on of hands. For example, in Acts 3:1-8, the lame man at the Beautiful Gate didn't walk until Peter grabbed him. The anointing flowed through Peter's hands into the lame man. Jesus Christ said in Mark 16:18: "They shall take up serpents; and if they drink any deadly thing, it shall not hurt them; they shall lay hands on the sick, and they shall recover". Jesus was saying that when we lay hands on the sick, the anointing in us will be transferred to them and the sickness will be gone. Sometimes, it may even be unintentional. For instance, the moment you step on a naked wire, knowingly or unknowingly, the electricity running through it will run through you too. Similarly sometimes, anointing can be transferred by conduction without both parties even trying to initiate the transfer. For example, in (2 Kings 13:20-21), when the dead man's body accidentally fell into the grave of Elisha, the fellow came back to life.

A few years ago, I was abroad and decided to go shopping in a bookshop. A man came into the bookshop and made a joke about the large number of books I was buying. He stretched his hand to shake me and I shook his hand without trying to transfer anointing to him. Suddenly he shouted, "Who are you?" because the back pain he had been suffering from for many years suddenly disappeared as I shook his hand. That is transfer of anointing by conduction. Beloved, whenever you have the opportunity to shake hands with an anointed fellow or have them lay hands on you, don't take it for granted. Your life can change just by that simple contact. This is not to say you should go around trying to touch every man or woman of God you see by force; be respectful and decent about it because the same anointing that heals can kill also, if grieved.

KEY POINT:

Never take for granted a handshake or laying on of hands by an anointed vessel of God.

BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: 1 CORINTHIANS 1-4

AUTHOR PASTOR E.A. ADEBOYE 

HYMNAL:  15 - PASS ME NOT, O GENTLE SAVIOUR

1. Pass me not, O gentle Saviour,

Hear my humble cry;

While on others Thou art calling,

Do not pass me by.

REFRAIN: 

Saviour, Saviour,

Hear my humble cry;

While on others Thou art calling,

Do not pass me by. 

2. Let me, at Thy throne of mercy

Find a sweet relief;

Kneeling there in deep contrition,

Help my unbelief.

3. Trusting only in Thy merit

Would I seek Thy face

Heal my wounded, broken spirit,

Save me by Thy grace.

4. Thou, the spring of all my comfort,

More than life to me.

Whom have I on earth beside Thee?

Whom in heav'n but Thee?

Open Heavens Daily Devotional by Pastor E.A. Adeboye

OPEN HEAVENS DAILY DEVOTIONAL 

DATE: TUESDAY NOVEMBER 28TH, 2023.

TOPIC: THE KEY TO DIVINE POWER

MEMORISE:

“If we live in the Spirit, let us also walk in the Spirit.” 

Galatians 5:25

READ: ACTS 2:1-4 (KJV)

1  And when the day of Pentecost was fully come, they were all with one accord in one place.

2 And suddenly there came a sound from heaven as of a rushing mighty wind, and it filled all the house where they were sitting.

3 And there appeared unto them cloven tongues like as of fire, and it sat upon each of them.

4 And they were all filled with the Holy Ghost, and began to speak with other tongues, as the Spirit gave them utterance.

MESSAGE:

The power of God does not come cheap. I remember asking God to give me power to work miracles and He answered, "Start where Jesus started". I was excited, thinking I would repeat Jesus' first miracle, until the Lord pointed Matthew 4:2 out to me – where Jesus started with forty days of fasting and prayers. If you want power from God Almighty, you must be ready to conquer your flesh. When you are ruled by the Spirit, not the flesh, then God can trust you with power. If you can get addicted to fasting, prayer, studying the Bible and holiness, then you are a candidate that God can consider for the possession of divine power. When I talk about holiness and living above sin as one of my major secrets of power, some people think I am only being legalistic, but when you read Hebrews 1:9, you will see that you must love righteousness and hate iniquity for God to anoint you.

Apostle Paul said in (1 Corinthians 9:27) that he put his body under subjection. He said also that he fasted often (2 Corinthians 11:27). What was the result of all these? Acts 19:11-12 says that when demons saw his handkerchiefs, they ran; that is power. When I am fasting and emphasising holiness everyday, I know what I am doing. I am seeing the results in my life so I will not stop. Several years ago, the Full Gospel Businessmen's Fellowship International invited me to preach on 'The New Anointing'. By the time I had finished speaking, I had to sneak away into the car because everybody wanted to touch me. There was a man running after me with a handkerchief in his hand. Fortunately, he was able to reach the car and he rubbed his handkerchief on it before I drove off. Back at home, there was a little girl who was so demon-possessed that it took six men to hold her down. He arrived on the scene, touched the girl with the handkerchief and she became normal again.

If you want this type of power, you must be willing to pay the price. You must learn to put your flesh under subjection, and God will give you power to do great things for Him.

KEY POINT:

You must start minding spiritual things above physical ones if you want the power of God in your life.

BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: ROMANS 15-16

AUTHOR PASTOR E.A. ADEBOYE 

HYMNAL:  16 - PRAISE HIM! PRAISE HIM! JESUS OUR BLESSED REDEEMER!

Strength and honour give to His Holy Name!

Like a Shepherd, Jesus will guard His children,

In His arms He carries them all day long.

O ye saints that dwell on the mountain of Zion.

Praise Him! Praise Him!

Ever in joyful song!

2. Praise Him! Praise Him! Jesus our blessed Redeemer!

For our sins He suffered and bled and died;

He, our rock, our hope of eternal salvation,

Hail Him! Hail Him! Jesus the Crucified!

Loving Saviour, meekly enduring sorrow,

Crowned with thorns that cruelly pierced His brow;

Once for us rejected, despised and forsaken.

Prince of Glory, ever triumphant now.

3. Praise Him! Praise Him! Jesus our blessed Redeemer!

Heav'nly portals loud with Hosannas ring!

Jesus, Saviour, reigneth for ever and ever;

Crown Him! Crown Him! Prophet, and Priest, and King!

Death is vanquished! Tell it with joy, ye faithful.

Where is now thy victory, boasting grave?

Jesus lives! No longer thy portals are cheerless,

Jesus live, the mighty and strong to save.

 Isaiah 40:4 (KJV) Every valley shall be exalted, and every mountain and hill shall be made low: and the crooked shall be made straight, and the rough places plain: As you go into this new week, may the Lord Almighty that knows the end from the beginning guide you overcoming rough and turbulent paths that you may reach your goal in Jesus mighty name.

Open Heavens Daily Devotional by Pastor E.A. Adeboye

OPEN HEAVENS DAILY DEVOTIONAL 

DATE: MONDAY NOVEMBER 27TH, 2023.

TOPIC: THE KEY TO INFLUENCE

MEMORISE:

Blessed are the meek: for they shall inherit the earth.” 

Matthew 5:5

READ: PHILIPPIANS 2:5-11 (KJV)

5 Let this mind be in you, which was also in Christ Jesus:

6 Who, being in the form of God, thought it not robbery to be equal with God:

7 But made himself of no reputation, and took upon him the form of a servant, and was made in the likeness of men:

8 And being found in fashion as a man, he humbled himself, and became obedient unto death, even the death of the cross.

9 Wherefore God also hath highly exalted him, and given him a name which is above every name:

10 That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth;

And that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.

MESSAGE:

When Jesus died and rose again, God gave Him great influence such that at the mention of His name, every knee bows and every tongue confesses that He is Lord (Philippians 2:10-11). When you read Philippians 2:5-8 and see how Jesus Christ humbled Himself, even to the point of dying on the cross, one thing you will see clearly there is meekness - that is, being so powerful yet acting so weak for the good of others and the fulfilment of God's will. This is what led to God exalting Him so highly and giving Him such great influence. Matthew 5:5 says: "Blessed are the meek: for they shall inherit the earth". It is the meek that will inherit the earth; they are the ones who will reign and have influence on the earth.

When you look at the story of Elisha closely, you will see that he was a successful farmer who willingly became the servant of a Prophet (1 Kings 19:19-21). Because he was willing to go so low for the fulfilment of God's agenda, God gave him so much influence that even the king of the land called him "Father" (2 Kings 13:14).

I told my children a few years ago when they asked me to talk on The Pains and Gains of Change, that one of the gains is influence. When I joined the Redeemed Christian Church of God, God told me to submit to the General Superintendent who wasn't even educated, and I did it with all joy. When my Father-in-the-Lord later died and I was to go into full time ministry, it wasn't a joking matter. I had known the worst kind of poverty and then worked my way through to getting a doctorate degree. I may not have been wealthy, but at least I had enough money to take care of my family and pay my bills. Now God was calling me into full time ministry to head a Church with little to no income. I went through the pain and today, at least if only in Nigeria alone, I can introduce you to many people of influence; above all, I can introduce you to the King of kings.

Influence comes with meekness. If you can genuinely submit to authority and put away all your achievements, then God will give you authority and influence.

KEY POINT:

Influence comes with meekness.

DATE: SUNDAY 26TH, NOVEMBER 2023.

THEME: REAL PROMOTION 

MEMORISE

For promotion cometh neither from the east, nor from the west, nor from the south.

Psalm 75:6

READ: 1 Samuel 13:8-14

8 And he tarried seven days, according to the set time that Samuel had appointed: but Samuel came not to Gilgal; and the people were scattered from him.

9 And Saul said, Bring hither a burnt offering to me, and peace offerings. And he offered the burnt offering.

10 And it came to pass, that as soon as he had made an end of offering the burnt offering, behold, Samuel came; and Saul went out to meet him, that he might salute him.

11 And Samuel said, What hast thou done? And Saul said, Because I saw that the people were scattered from me, and that thou camest not within the days appointed, and that the Philistines gathered themselves together at Michmash;

12 Therefore said I, The Philistines will come down now upon me to Gilgal, and I have not made supplication unto the Lord: I forced myself therefore, and offered a burnt offering.

13 And Samuel said to Saul, Thou hast done foolishly: thou hast not kept the commandment of the Lord thy God, which he commanded thee: for now would the Lord have established thy kingdom upon Israel for ever.

14 But now thy kingdom shall not continue: the Lord hath sought him a man after his own heart, and the Lord hath commanded him to be captain over his people, because thou hast not kept that which the Lord commanded thee.

MESSAGE

There are different types of promotions. When a human being promotes you, don’t rejoice too much because it is temporary.

However, when God promotes you, you are really promoted. Even though you become the president of a country like America, you can only hold the position for a maximum of eight years.

When man promotes, it is temporary; only God gives real promotion that no one can interfere with.

Since we know now that the only way to really make progress in life is to be promoted by God, then we need to find out His criteria for promotion.

God promoted David from being a shepherd boy to becoming the king of Israel for one simple reason – David was sold out to the will of God (Acts 13:22).

David was not a man to argue with God. With David, God’s wish was his command.

The reason God gave Jesus a name that is above every other is what He said in John 4:34: “…My meat is to do the will of him that sent me, and to finish his work”.

In the Garden of Gethsemane, Jesus wished the cup of suffering for the sins of the world could be taken away from Him, but He said to God, “Not my will but yours be done” (Luke 22:42).

When Jesus was teaching His disciples to pray, one of the prayer points He mentioned was: “Thy kingdom come, Thy will be done in earth, as it is in heaven” (Matthew 6:10).

God wants His will to be done on earth as it is in heaven. Therefore, when He sees someone willing to do His will, He promotes that fellow to a position of authority.

If God promotes somebody because the fellow started in humility and submission to Him, but along the line begins to disregard His instructions, that fellow would be demoted immediately.

That is what happened to Saul in 1 Samuel 15:24-28. Saul started out well, but somewhere in-between, he preferred to please the people over doing God’s will.

Some people have been asking God to promote them, but they have no regard for His will. Promotion will only come when you surrender completely to God’s will.

KEY POINT

If you truly want to be promoted by God, then you must be sold out to doing His will.

BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: Romans 8-10

AUTHOR: PASTOR E.A. ADEBOYE

HYMN 30: When We Walk With The Lord

1. When we walk with the Lord, In the light of His word, What a glory He sheds on our way! While we do His good will He abides with us still, And with all who will trust and obey.

Refrain: 

Trust and obey! For there’s no other way To be happy in Jesus, But to trust and obey.

2. But we never can prove The delights of His love, Until all on the altar we lay, For the favour He shows And the joy He bestows Are for them who will trust and obey. 

3. Then in fellowship sweet We will sit at His feet, Or we’ll walk by His side in the way, What He says we will do, Where He sends we will go, Never fear, only trust and obey.

THEME: WHEN GOD PURIFIES II

MEMORISE:

Now I Nebuchadnezzar praise and extol and honour the King of heaven, all whose works are truth, and his ways judgment: and those that walk in pride he is able to abase.

Daniel 4:37

READ: Daniel 4:23-37

23 And whereas the king saw a watcher and an holy one coming down from heaven, and saying, Hew the tree down, and destroy it; yet leave the stump of the roots thereof in the earth, even with a band of iron and brass, in the tender grass of the field; and let it be wet with the dew of heaven, and let his portion be with the beasts of the field, till seven times pass over him;

24 This is the interpretation, O king, and this is the decree of the most High, which is come upon my lord the king:

25 That they shall drive thee from men, and thy dwelling shall be with the beasts of the field, and they shall make thee to eat grass as oxen, and they shall wet thee with the dew of heaven, and seven times shall pass over thee, till thou know that the most High ruleth in the kingdom of men, and giveth it to whomsoever he will.

26 And whereas they commanded to leave the stump of the tree roots; thy kingdom shall be sure unto thee, after that thou shalt have known that the heavens do rule.

27 Wherefore, O king, let my counsel be acceptable unto thee, and break off thy sins by righteousness, and thine iniquities by shewing mercy to the poor; if it may be a lengthening of thy tranquillity.

28 All this came upon the king Nebuchadnezzar. 

29 At the end of twelve months he walked in the palace of the kingdom of Babylon. 

30 The king spake, and said, Is not this great Babylon, that I have built for the house of the kingdom by the might of my power, and for the honour of my majesty? 

31 While the word was in the king's mouth, there fell a voice from heaven, saying, O king Nebuchadnezzar, to thee it is spoken; The kingdom is departed from thee.  

32 And they shall drive thee from men, and thy dwelling shall be with the beasts of the field: they shall make thee to eat grass as oxen, and seven times shall pass over thee, until thou know that the most High ruleth in the kingdom of men, and giveth it to whomsoever he will. 

33 The same hour was the thing fulfilled upon Nebuchadnezzar: and he was driven from men, and did eat grass as oxen, and his body was wet with the dew of heaven, till his hairs were grown like eagles' feathers, and his nails like birds' claws.  

34 And at the end of the days I Nebuchadnezzar lifted up mine eyes unto heaven, and mine understanding returned unto me, and I blessed the most High, and I praised and honoured him that liveth for ever, whose dominion is an everlasting dominion, and his kingdom is from generation to generation:  

35 And all the inhabitants of the earth are reputed as nothing: and he doeth according to his will in the army of heaven, and among the inhabitants of the earth: and none can stay his hand, or say unto him, What doest thou? 

36 At the same time my reason returned unto me; and for the glory of my kingdom, mine honour and brightness returned unto me; and my counsellors and my lords sought unto me; and I was established in my kingdom, and excellent majesty was added unto me. 

37 Now I Nebuchadnezzar praise and extol and honour the King of heaven, all whose works are truth, and his ways judgment: and those that walk in pride he is able to abase.

MESSAGE

Following yesterday's study, the second kind of fire God uses to purify His children is the fire of affliction. Let us take Job, for example. When you look at Job 30:1, you will be shocked to discover that Job had that little contamination called Pride. After he lost everything, he discovered that God has a way of making a fellow humble by fire. God used the fire of affliction to remove pride from his life.

Some people have asked me why I am always saying 'Yes, Sir' and 'Yes, Ma'am' to everybody. I wasn't like that before. I was one of the proudest persons you could ever meet - even though I was poor, but God taught me a lesson that settled the issue of pride in my life forever. When I got born again, one of the greatest blessings I received from God early on was the ability to hear Him. I was also the interpreter for the General Superintendent of the Redeemed Christian Church of God. One day, for whatever reason, one of the Pastors came to me and asked me to interpret for him during his ministration. I felt offended. "Who does this man think he is? Doesn't he know that I am the General Superintendent's interpreter?" I interpreted quite all right, but I was very upset. After the Service, as I was going to my car, I heard God say clearly, "So you are now too big to interpret for my servant". I stopped hearing from Him and everything became silent. As soon as the devil discovered that I was no longer hearing from God, he tormented me. I prayed, wept and fasted, but God was silent all through. Believe me, honestly, it is better not to have heard from God at all than for Him to stop speaking to you. God will not leave you alone, in Jesus' Name.

The period God stopped talking was a terrible time for me. In desperation, I told Him, "Lord, I make a covenant with You: if I am going to offend you tomorrow, take me away today". And then He started to speak to me again. Thus, when you see me saying "Yes, Sir" to the driver or the cleaner, it is because fire burnt pride out of me.

If God is to use you, one way or another, He will have to Purify you because only those pure in heart will see Him on the last day.

PRAYER POINT:

Father, if there is any impurity in me that I am refusing to let go easily, please take it away by force, in Jesus' Name.

BIBLE IN ONE YEAR:

SING HYMN 28: WHAT CAN WASH AWAY MY STAIN?

1. What can wash away my stain?

Nothing but the blood of Jesus;

What can make me whole again?

Nothing but the blood of Jesus.

REFRAIN: 

Oh! precious is the flow

That makes me white as snow!

No other fount I know,

Nothing but the blood of Jesus. 

2. For my pardon this I see;

Nothing but the blood of Jesus;

For my cleansing this my plea:

Nothing but the blood of Jesus.

3. Nothing can for sin atone,

Nothing but the blood of Jesus:

Naught of good that I have done,

Nothing but the blood of Jesus.

4. This is all my hope and peace:

Nothing but the blood of Jesus:

This is all my righteousness

Nothing but the blood of Jesus.

Open Heavens Daily Devotional by Pastor E.A. Adeboye

OPEN HEAVENS DAILY DEVOTIONAL

DATE: FRIDAY 24TH, NOVEMBER 2023.

THEME: WHEN GOD PURIFIES I

MEMORISE

And he shall sit as a refiner and purifier of silver: and he shall purify the sons of Levi, and purge them as gold and silver, that they may offer unto the LORD an offering in righteousness. 

Malachi 3:3

READ: Ezekiel 36:24-26

24 For I will take you from among the heathen, and gather you out of all countries, and will bring you into your own land.

25 Then 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.

26 A 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.

MESSAGE

When gold is found, it is in its raw state. It is undesirable and filled with impurities. Raw gold must first be purified with fire before it reaches its full potential and becomes useful.

Our Bible reading for today says that after God has taken you out from the heathen, He will pass you through the process of purification.

When you met Christ, you were in your raw state. God cannot leave you in that contaminated state because you can only be useful to Him after you’ve been purified.

To purify you, He will need to introduce fire. There are two types of fire God usually uses to purify. The first one is the fire of the Holy Ghost.

Peter was one of the first people called by the Lord Jesus Christ in Mark 3:13-19, but he had one little problem: he was always afraid, and the devil discovered this weakness.

That is why, on the day Jesus was arrested, the devil brought three people to test Peter, knowing that he would be too afraid to identify openly with Jesus. Indeed, Peter denied Jesus three times.

The devil was happy that he had gotten Peter but thankfully, Jesus had prayed for him so he repented and found his way back to God.

Now, if Peter was going to be useful to God, Jesus needed to do something about the fear contaminating his heart, so He purified him by fire.

On the day of Pentecost, when the fire fell on all the disciples, Jesus was purifying them to make them useful.

Immediately that fire sat on the head of Peter; it consumed the fear in him (Acts 2:1-47). The man who used to be afraid suddenly became very bold.

The contamination was removed by the fire of the Holy Spirit.

The Holy Ghost Baptism is a refining fire that takes away impurities in the life of a believer.

If you are truly baptised – that is, after sanctification (setting oneself apart for God), then that fire will burn off all impurities in you.

Note that a person may speak in tongues, but if he is not yet fully surrendered to Christ, if his heart is still after the things of this world, he cannot be purified.

Sanctification must happen first before the fellow can truly be purified by the fire of the Holy Ghost.

KEY POINT

Father, please purify me with Your fire today.

BIBLE IN ONE YEAR; Romans 1-3

HYMN 23: Take My Life And Let It Be

1 Take my life and let it be consecrated, Lord, to thee. Take my moments and my days; let them flow in endless praise, let them flow in endless praise.

2 Take my hands and let them move at the impulse of thy love. Take my feet and let them be swift and beautiful for thee, swift and beautiful for thee.

3 Take my voice and let me sing always, only, for my King. Take my lips and let them be filled with messages from thee, filled with messages from thee.

4 Take my silver and my gold; not a mite would I withhold. Take my intellect and use every power as thou shalt choose, every power as thou shalt choose.

5 Take my will and make it thine; it shall be no longer mine. Take my heart it is thine own; it shall be thy royal throne, it shall be thy royal throne.

6 Take my love; my Lord, I pour at thy feet its treasure store. Take myself, and I will be ever, only, all for thee, ever, only, all for thee.

OPEN HEAVENS DAILY DEVOTIONAL 

DATE: THURSDAY 23RD, NOVEMBER 2023.

THEME: KILL THAT WEAKNESS II

MEMORISE:

Wherefore seeing we also are compassed about with so great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which doth so easily beset us, and let us run with patience the race that is set before us. 

Hebrews 12:1

READ: Numbers 20:7-12 

7  And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,

8 Take the rod, and gather thou the assembly together, thou, and Aaron thy brother, and speak ye unto the rock before their eyes; and it shall give forth his water, and thou shalt bring forth to them water out of the rock: so thou shalt give the congregation and their beasts drink.

9 And Moses took the rod from before the LORD, as he commanded him.

10 And Moses and Aaron gathered the congregation together before the rock, and he said unto them, Hear now, ye rebels; must we fetch you water out of this rock?

11 And Moses lifted up his hand, and with his rod he smote the rock twice: and the water came out abundantly, and the congregation drank, and their beasts also.

12 And the LORD spake unto Moses and Aaron, Because ye believed me not, to sanctify me in the eyes of the children of Israel, therefore ye shall not bring this congregation into the land which I have given them.

MESSAGE

I would like to give a clear illustration of what we discussed yesterday with the story of Moses. Numbers 12:3 describes Moses as the meekest man on earth, but he had the problem of anger. The devil discovered it in Exodus 2:11-12. Moses saw an Egyptian beating up an Israelite and because he couldn't control his temper, Moses killed the man. Many years later, while leading the children of Israel to the Promised Land, the devil started hitting on this weak spot. In Exodus 14-15, we see the children of Israel complaining about different things; this was the devil throwing blows at Moses to get him angry, but he dodged all of them. However, in Exodus 17:1-7, when there was no water to drink and they turned to Moses to complain again, he said in verse 2, "Why are you chiding with me?" The devil said, "Good, blow number 1 has landed, he is now beginning to respond". In Exodus 32:15-20, Moses had gone to collect the 10 commandments from God; by the time he returned, the children of Israel were already worshipping an idol. When he came and saw them worshipping the idol, the temper in him rose and he took the two tablets of commandments that God gave him and smashed them. At that point, the devil knew his punches were now landing.

In Numbers 11:10-15, when the children of Israel were complaining that they wanted meat, Moses turned to God and said, "God, why are you doing this to me? Am I the father of these people?" The devil said, "Good, now I have turned you against your supporter". By the time we get to Numbers 20:2-13, the people murmured again about water, but this time, instead of speaking to the rock as God commanded, Moses was so angry that he hit it twice. God asked him to speak to the rock, but He decided to strike it. That was disobedience. At that point, the Almighty God said, "Moses, you will not reach the Promised Land".

The meek Moses - with only one little contamination called anger, had become, after forty years of ministry, a failure.

Beloved, kill that little weakness in your life before it kills you.

KEY POINT:

Kill that little weakness in your life before it kills you.

BIBLE IN ONE YEAR:

SING HYMN 8: I NEED THEE EVERY HOUR

1. I need Thee ev'ry hour

Most gracious Lord;

No tender voice like Thine

Can peace afford.

CHORUS:

I need Thee, oh, I need Thee;

Ev'ry hour I need Thee;

O bless me now, my Saviour,

I come to Thee!

2. I need Thee ev'ry hour

Stay Thou nearby

Temptations lose their power

When Thou art nigh.

3. I need Thee ev'ry hour

In joy or pain;

Come quickly and abide

Or life is vain.

4. I need Thee every hour

Teach me Thy will

And Thy rich promises

In me fulfill.

5. I need Thee every hour

Most Holy One;

Oh, make me Thine indeed,

Thou blessed Son!

Open Heavens Daily Devotional by Pastor E.A. Adeboye

OPEN HEAVENS DAILY DEVOTIONAL 

DATE: WEDNESDAY 22ND, NOVEMBER 2023.

THEME: KILL THAT WEAKNESS I

MEMORISE:

Neither give place to the devil. 

Ephesians 4:27

READ: Hebrews 12:1-8

1 Wherefore seeing we also are compassed about with so great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which doth so easily beset us, and let us run with patience the race that is set before us,

2 Looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of our faith; who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is set down at the right hand of the throne of God.

3 For consider him that endured such contradiction of sinners against himself, lest ye be wearied and faint in your minds.

4 Ye have not yet resisted unto blood, striving against sin.

5 And ye have forgotten the exhortation which speaketh unto you as unto children, My son, despise not thou the chastening of the Lord, nor faint when thou art rebuked of him:

6 For whom the Lord loveth he chasteneth, and scourgeth every son whom he receiveth.

7 If ye endure chastening, God dealeth with you as with sons; for what son is he whom the father chasteneth not?

8 But if ye be without chastisement, whereof all are partakers, then are ye bastards, and not sons.

MESSAGE

When you want to fight a champion in a boxing match, the first thing you want to know is if he has been wounded before. If he has, you can hit him on that spot to get the upper hand in the match. When the devil wants to bring down a champion, he looks for the greatest weakness in the fellow and keeps aiming at it until the champion falls. This is why you must not allow any weakness in your life, because the devil will capitalize on it. You must destroy the weakness before it destroys you.

A hunter went hunting and killed a big leopard. He also saw a baby leopard and decided to take it back to the village because it looked harmless. The little leopard began to grow, playing with children in the village, and the hunter's son was its best friend. Years later, the leopard had the hunter's son riding on its back towards the village stream. The boy fell and bruised his leg on the ground. The leopard, wanting to help his friend, licked the blood on the boy's leg. The taste of the blood drove the leopard to eat the boy up.

Beloved, if you don't kill that little leopard in your life, it will kill you. That little contamination - that little anger or lust would later kill you, if you don't kill it now.

Take us the foxes, the little foxes, that spoil the vines: for our vines have tender grapes. (Song of Solomon 2:15)

It doesn't matter how many good virtues you have or how strong you are in the Spirit; if there is just one weakness, it can destroy you completely. A little contamination destroys purity. Hebrews 12:1 says that you should lay aside that sin which easily besets you so that you can run the Christian race successfully. This race is a marathon. In marathons, carrying the smallest weight can cause you to fail. Once the devil sees you carrying that weakness around, he knows he now has a joker card to use in bringing you down later. Don't give him that joker card, kill the weakness immediately.

KEY POINT:

The smallest of weaknesses in your life can stop you from making heaven. Kill that weakness now.

BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: 

Acts 24-26

AUTHOR: PASTOR E.A. ADEBOYE 

SING HYMN 23: TAKE MY LIFE, AND LET IT BE

Take my feet, and let them be

Swift and beautiful for Thee.

3. Take my voice and let me sing

Always, only, for my King;

Take my lips and let them be

Filled with messages from Thee,

Filled with messages from Thee.

4. Take my silver and my gold;

Not a mite would I withhold;

Take my intellect, and use

Every power as Thou shalt choose,

Every power as Thou shalt choose.

5. Take my will and make it Thine,

It shall be no longer mine:

Take my heart, it is Thine own;

It shall be Thy royal throne,

It shall be Thy royal throne.

6. Take my love, my Lord, I pour

At Thy feet its treasure store;

Take myself, and I will be

Ever, only, all for Thee,

Ever, only, all for Thee.
