Open Heavens Daily Devotional by Pastor E.A. Adeboye

OPEN HEAVENS DAILY DEVOTIONAL


DATE: SATURDAY JUNE 1ST, 2024.


THEME: CRY OUT!


MEMORISE: 

This poor man cried, and the LORD heard him, and saved him out of all his troubles.    

Psalm 34:6


READ: 2 Kings 6:1-7 

1 And the sons of the prophets said unto Elisha, Behold now, the place where we dwell with thee is too strait for us.


2 Let us go, we pray thee, unto Jordan, and take thence every man a beam, and let us make us a place there, where we may dwell. And he answered, Go ye.


3 And one said, Be content, I pray thee, and go with thy servants. And he answered, I will go.


4 So he went with them. And when they came to Jordan, they cut down wood.


5 But as one was felling a beam, the axe head fell into the water: and he cried, and said, Alas, master! for it was borrowed.


6 And the man of God said, Where fell it? And he shewed him the place. And he cut down a stick, and cast it in thither; and the iron did swim.


7 Therefore said he, Take it up to thee. And he put out his hand, and took it.



MESSAGE

In our Bible reading for today, Elisha would not have known about the axe head that fell if the man who lost it did not cry out for help. Many times, we need to cry to God until He answers us. There are people who will say that you don't need to open your mouth when you pray. While it is true that God knows everything, even before you cry, if you go through the Bible, you will see many instances where people cried to God. In Psalm 120:1, David said: "In my distress I cried unto the Lord and He heard me." In Psalm 77:1, the psalmist said, "I cried with my voice," not "with my heart" as many might suggest, saying that you can close your mouth and cry with your heart.


David said, I cried with my voice, and He heard me from His holy hill" (Psalm 3:4). I pray for you; whenever you cry unto God, He will hear you, in Jesus' name. There is, however, one thing that can prevent God from hearing you, and that is sin. The Bible says that if we regard iniquity in our hearts, God will not hear us (Psalm 66:18). However, if a sinner repents and cries to God for mercy, He will hear. In Psalm 34:17, David said: The righteous cry, and the Lord heareth, and delivereth them out of all their troubles. If you are ready to cry to God today, He will deliver you from all your troubles.


I remember when I came to Lagos to work as a lecturer at the University of Lagos way back in 1969, somebody came to me and said, "This is what people do in Lagos - they give money to a prophet so that he will be fasting and praying for them. So, you have to do the same." I thought to myself, "ignorant people, the prophet will just take your money and do nothing." Thank God that we can call on God directly and He will answer us. Isaiah 59:1-2 says:


Behold, the LORD's hand is not shortened, that it cannot save; neither his ear heavy, that it cannot hear: But your iniquities have separated between you and your God, and your sins have hid his face from you, that he will not hear.


You don't have to pay anyone to pray for you. All you need is to have faith in God and live holy; whenever you cry unto Him, He will answer you.



PRAYER POINT

Take that matter that has been bothering you to God in prayers now. Cry to Him, and He will answer you.


BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: Job 25-30


AUTHOR: PASTOR E.A. ADEBOYE


HYMN 15: PASS ME 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.


Refrain:

Savior, Savior,


Hear my humble cry;


While on others Thou art calling,


Do not pass me by.


2 Let me at a 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?

DATE: FRIDAY MAY 31ST, 2024.


THEME: WISDOM IS PRINCPAL


MEMORISE: 

And unto man he said, Behold, the fear of the Lord, that is wisdom; and to depart from evil is understanding.

Job 28:28


READ: Proverbs 4:5-9 

5 Get wisdom, get understanding: forget it not; neither decline from the words of my mouth.


6 Forsake her not, and she shall preserve thee: love her, and she shall keep thee.


7 Wisdom is the principal thing; therefore get wisdom: and with all thy getting get understanding.


8 Exalt her, and she shall promote thee: she shall bring thee to honour, when thou dost embrace her.


9 She shall give to thine head an ornament of grace: a crown of glory shall she deliver to thee.


MESSAGE

Wisdom is the correct application of knowledge. Acquiring knowledge and applying it are two different things. For example, if a man is driving on a road and sees a road sign that says, 'Narrow bridge ahead,' as soon as he sees that sign, he has acquired knowledge. However, what that man decides to do with

that knowledge will tell if he is wise or foolish. If the man is wise, he will slow down because the bridge ahead is narrow, and there might be an oncoming vehicle. On the other hand, if he is foolish, he will keep driving at the same speed or even increase the speed of the vehicle.


God said in Proverbs 4:7 that wisdom is the principal thing. Principal refers to the most important thing. This means that to God, getting wisdom is of utmost importance.


The Bible tells us that there are two types of wisdom. The first one comes from fearing God.


The fear of the LORD is the beginning of wisdom:

Psalm 111:10


Wisdom begins when the fear of God is established in your life. When you fear God, you won't do anything to annoy Him because you know that He determines your beginning and end. The Bible calls Him a consuming fire (Hebrews 12:29); therefore, He is the last person you should offend. Also, if the Consuming Fire is on your side, you have nothing to fear because the word of God says that if God is for you, nobody can be against you (Romans 8:31). Wisdom teaches you to fear God, thus fear Him wherever you go and at all times.


The second type of wisdom is the wisdom of this world (1

Corinthians 1:20). This wisdom is not from God and is actually foolishness (1 Corinthians 1:18-25). The world does not recognize God, and as such, worldly wisdom is based on human logic and things that the human mind can grasp. With worldly wisdom, some things can be deemed impossible. However, the Bible tells us that with God, all things are possible (Matthew 19:26).


Do not go with the world's wisdom, as it is foolishness before God. Choose to fear God, obey His word, and He will give you wisdom, which is the principal thing that you need to succeed in life. When you embrace godly wisdom, you will be honoured and crowned with God's glory in everything that you do.



PRAYER POINT

Lord, help me to fear You daily and obey Your word, even if it sounds foolish to my human understanding, in Jesus name.



BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: Job 21-24



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 Not a burden we bear, 


not a sorrow we share, 


but our toil he doth richly repay; 


not a grief or a loss, 


not a frown or a cross, 


but is blest if we trust and obey. 



3 But we never can prove 


the delights of his love 


until all on the altar we lay; 


for the favor he shows, 


for the joy he bestows, 


are for them who will trust and obey. 



4 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.

Open Heavens Daily Devotional by Pastor E.A. Adeboye

 OPEN HEAVENS DAILY DEVOTIONAL 


DATE: THURSDAY, MAY 30 2024


TOPIC: THE COUNSEL OF THE LORD


MEMORISE:


All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness.

2 Timothy 3:16


READ:

PROVERBS 15:22


22 Without counsel purposes are disappointed: but in the multitude of counsellors they are established.


MESSAGE:


Our Bible reading for today tells us that without counsel, purposes are defeated. In other words, if you plan to do something and you don’t have any advice, you might not be able to achieve it. Proverbs 20:18 says:


Every purpose is established by counsel: and with good advice make war.


Getting advice or counsel, as the Bible calls it, is very needful. Do not begin any endeavour without getting good advice. Proverbs 24:6 says, “...in multitude of counsellors there is safety.” When you surround yourself with many good advisers, you will be safe and unlikely to make costly mistakes in life.


Note that it is not every piece of advice that you should take. God said in Proverbs 8:14 that counsel and sound wisdom are His. Every counsel you take must ultimately be from God, and as such, you should ensure that every bit of advice you receive aligns with the word of God before you accept them. This is because some clever people might come to you with pieces of advice that sound very good but that are ungodly and misleading. God is the best counsellor. In fact, that is one of the names of the Lord Jesus Christ according to Isaiah 9:6.


For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given: and the government shall be upon his shoulder: and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counsellor, The mighty God, The everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace.


Whenever you get advice from anybody, check for what the word of God says concerning it. If you discover that it is not in agreement with the word of God, then you should know that it is not coming from godly wisdom, and you must reject it. This is why you need to know the word of God yourself so that when somebody gives you a bit of advice, you will be able to differentiate if it aligns with the word of God or not. Be like the Berean Christians; always ensure that you search the Scriptures to confirm everything you hear, irrespective of who says it (Acts 17:10-12).


Seek God’s counsel in everything that you do. Study His word and listen to His advice through the mouth of many wise counsellors who are children of God and who understand His word. This way, you will remain on the right path and will not be led astray.


KEY POINT:


Before acting on any advice, ensure it aligns with the word of God.


BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: JOB 17-20


AUTHOR: PASTOR E.A. ADEBOYE 


HYMN 28

GUIDE ME O THOU GREAT JEHOVAH 


1 Guide me, O Thou great Jehovah!

Pilgrim through this barren land;

I am weak, but Thou art mighty,

Hold me with Thy powerful hand:

Bread of heaven! Bread of heaven!

Feed me now and evermore (2ce)


2 Open Thou the crystal fountain,

Whence the healing stream doth flow:

Let the fiery cloudy pillar

Lead me all my journey through:

Strong deliverer! strong deliverer!

Be Thou still my strength and shield (2ce)


3 If I tread the verge of Jordan,

Bid my anxious fears subside:

Bear me through the swelling torrent,

Land me safe on Canaan's side:

Songs of praises! songs of praises!

I will ever give to Thee (2ce)


4 Saviour, come! We long to see Thee,

Long to dwell with Thee above;

And to know in full communion,

All the sweetness of Thy love.

Come, Lord Jesus! Come, Lord Jesus!

Take Thy waiting people home (2ce)

JESUS LOVES YOU!!!

Open Heavens Daily Devotional by Pastor E.A. Adeboye

OPEN HEAVENS DAILY DEVOTIONAL 


DATE: WEDNESDAY MAY 29, 2024.


TOPIC: DISCOVERING GOD'S PURPOSE FOR YOUR LIFE


MEMORISE:

But ye are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, an holy nation, a peculiar people; that ye should shew forth the praises of him who hath called you out of darkness into his marvellous light.

1 Peter 2:9


READ:

EPHESIANS 2:8-10

8 For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God:


9 Not of works, lest any man should boast.


10 For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus unto good works, which God hath before ordained that we should walk in them.


MESSAGE:

God has a purpose for everything He does. In Exodus 8:1, He said to Moses, “...Go unto Pharaoh, and say unto him, Thus saith the LORD, Let my people go, that they may serve me.” God’s reason for delivering the Israelites from bondage was so that they could serve and worship Him. Likewise, your salvation comes with a purpose, as the passage in today’s Bible reading reveals.


In Mark 1:40-45, a leper came to Jesus and said, “I know that You can make me clean if You are willing.” Jesus answered, “I am willing.” With one touch, the leper was cleansed, and he went everywhere testifying. God heals so that there can be testimonies. Also, anytime He sets captives free, it is for a purpose. In Mark 5:2-20, the madman of Gadara was delivered and was ready to follow Jesus everywhere, but Christ said No! He had been delivered for a purpose - to be a witness.


God also sets free for His name to be praised. In Mark 3:1-5, the man with the withered hand received his healing because Psalm 47:1 says, “O clap your hands, all ye people...”. A withered hand cannot be used to clap for God, so his hand was restored.


What is the purpose of a miracle? The Bible says in Acts 3:1-11 that when the lame man at the Beautiful Gate received his miracle, he started walking, leaping, and praising God. When you receive a miracle, it is so that you can begin to praise God. Also, miracles lead to the salvation of souls. In Acts 4:4, we see that Peter’s speech after healing the lame man led to five thousand people being saved! God does miracles to draw people to Himself.


In Luke 5:1-11, when Jesus stepped into Peter’s boat after he had laboured all night and caught nothing, he received a huge miracle that frightened him. The Lord said, “From now, you will no longer catch fish but men.” Peter got a breakthrough that drew him to serve God because the Bible says that he forsook all and followed Him.


You should ask yourself, “Why has God delivered me from darkness and kept me healthy? Why did He save my soul?” He did all these for a purpose. Have you discovered that purpose? Don’t just thank God for healing, salvation, deliverance, and provision; remember that He did everything for a purpose. You must continually seek to discover His purpose for your life and fulfil it.


PRAYER POINT:

Lord, help me to discover Your purpose for my life and give me the grace to fulfil it.


BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: JOB 13-16


AUTHOR: PASTOR E.A. ADEBOYE


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 ceaseless praise,

Let them flow in ceaseless 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.

THEME: HE IS IN THE BOAT


MEMORISE: 

Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you always, even unto the end of the world. Amen.  

Matthew 28:20


READ: Mark 4:35-41

35  And the same day, when the even was come, he saith unto them, Let us pass over unto the other side.


36 And when they had sent away the multitude, they took him even as he was in the ship. And there were also with him other little ships.


37 And there arose a great storm of wind, and the waves beat into the ship, so that it was now full.


38 And he was in the hinder part of the ship, asleep on a pillow: and they awake him, and say unto him, Master, carest thou not that we perish?


39 And he arose, and rebuked the wind, and said unto the sea, Peace, be still. And the wind ceased, and there was a great calm.


40 And he said unto them, Why are ye so fearful? how is it that ye have no faith?


41 And they feared exceedingly, and said one to another, What manner of man is this, that even the wind and the sea obey him?



MESSAGE

A person's strength of character is best revealed in the midst of adversity (Proverbs 24:10). You will be surprised at the level of unbelief demonstrated by many who claim to be children of God when they are faced with adverse situations. At such times, fear makes many lose their hold of God's infallible word; this is what happened to the disciples in today's Bible reading. They were so afraid of the great storm threatening their lives even though Jesus was right there in the boat with them. At that moment, they forgot all the great deeds they had seen Him do and all the powerful things they had heard Him teach. Think about yourself, how do you react when you are in trouble like the disciples? Do you blame God, or do you act as if He is not even there with you at all? You must always remember that Jesus Christ is with you in the boat of life. Not only is He with you, but He can also feel the turbulence of the boat and will come to your aid once you call on Him. Hebrews 2:18 says of Him:


For in that he himself hath suffered being tempted, he is able to succor them that are tempted.


He personally promised to be with you always, even to the end of the world (Matthew 28:19-20). How comforting! In addition to this promise, He also said to you in Isaiah 43:1-2:


Fear not: for I have redeemed thee, I have called thee by thy name; thou art mine. When thou passest through the waters, I will be with thee; and through the rivers, they shall not overflow thee: when thou walkest through the fire, thou shalt not be burned; neither shalI the flame kindle upon thee.


I must, however, point out that only the redeemed of the Lord can lay claim to His promises in this Scripture. Have you been transformed by the redeeming work of Jesus Christ on the cross of Calvary? Do you have the assurance of salvation in your heart? If you are genuinely saved, I congratulate you. Nevertheless, our Lord wants you to demonstrate faith in Him by trusting Him in the midst of adversity. It is impossible to please God without having faith in Him (Hebrews 11:6). I, therefore, encourage you with these words of the Master in Mark 11:22 that says:


...Have faith in God.



PRAYER POINT

Father, help my faith to stand in the midst of adversity.



BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: Job 9-12



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 Not a burden we bear, 


not a sorrow we share, 


but our toil he doth richly repay; 


not a grief or a loss, 


not a frown or a cross, 


but is blest if we trust and obey. 



3 But we never can prove 


the delights of his love 


until all on the altar we lay; 


for the favor he shows, 


for the joy he bestows, 


are for them who will trust and obey. 



4 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: PRAYERS FOR CHILDREN



MEMORISE: And all thy children shall be taught of the LORD; and great shall be the peace of thy children.  Isaiah 54:13



READ: Isaiah 44:2-6 

2 Thus saith the LORD that made thee, and formed thee from the womb, which will help thee; Fear not, O Jacob, my servant; and thou, Jesurun, whom I have chosen.


3 For I will pour water upon him that is thirsty, and floods upon the dry ground: I will pour my spirit upon thy seed, and my blessing upon thine offspring:


4 And they shall spring up as among the grass, as willows by the water courses.


5 One shall say, I am the LORD'S; and another shall call himself by the name of Jacob; and another shall subscribe with his hand unto the LORD, and surname himself by the name of Israel.


6 Thus saith the LORD the King of Israel, and his redeemer the LORD of hosts; I am the first, and I am the last; and beside me there is no God.



1. Father, thank you for the gift of children. Thank you, Lord, for all the children around me; thank you for their lives,

health and sound mind.


2. Father, I ask for mighty testimonies over all the children I come in contact with. Let me always have reasons to rejoice over them.


3. Father, please build a wall of fire around all the children in my family, church, and community. Make them untouchable to the devil and his agents, in Jesus' name.


4. Father, please surround the children around me with the right people. Do not allow them to be influenced wrongly, in Jesus' name.


5. Father, pour out Your Spirit on all the children around me. Let them blossom and flourish in your goodness and grace, in Jesus' name.


6. Father, please provide the parents around me with the resources that they need to take care of their children. For the children without parents, Lord, You are the Father of the fatherless; please send help to them.


7. Father, as we celebrate Children's Day across the world today, please remember those who are looking up to You for children of their own and grant them answers to their prayers, in Jesus' name.


8. Father, give all the children in my family, church, community, and the nation as a whole, hearts that yearn for You. Let them grow up pleasing You and doing Your will at all times, in Jesus' name.


9. Father, please give all the children that are connected to me in one way or the other good success in their academics. Give them the wisdom, knowledge and understanding to excel, in Jesus' name.


10. Father, please let Your supernatural guidance abide with every child in my family, church, and community. Guide them in every area and at every stage of their lives so that they don't make costly mistakes, in Jesus' name.


11. Father, please break any generational curses that might exist in the lineage of all the children around me. Please raise a standard against every evil plan of the enemy concerning them, in Jesus' name.


12. Your personal prayer points for all the children around you.



BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: Job 5-8



AUTHOR: PASTOR E. A ADEBOYE



HYMN 22: SWEET HOUR OF PRAYER


1 Sweet hour of prayer! sweet hour of prayer! 


that calls me from a world of care, 


and bids me at my Father's throne 


make all my wants and wishes known. 


In seasons of distress and grief, 


my soul has often found relief, 


and oft escaped the tempter's snare 


by thy return, sweet hour of prayer! 



2 Sweet hour of prayer! sweet hour of prayer! 


the joys I feel, the bliss I share 


of those whose anxious spirits burn 


with strong desires for thy return! 


With such I hasten to the place 


where God my Savior shows his face, 


and gladly take my station there, 


and wait for thee, sweet hour of prayer! 



3 Sweet hour of prayer! sweet hour of prayer! 


thy wings shall my petition bear 


to him whose truth and faithfulness 


engage the waiting soul to bless. 


And since he bids me seek his face, 


believe his word, and trust his grace, 


I'll cast on him my every care, 


and wait for thee, sweet hour of prayer!

THEME: HE IS A REWARDER



MEMORISE: 

But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him.

Hebrews 11:6



READ: Matthew 10:40-42 

40 He that receiveth you receiveth me, and he that receiveth me receiveth him that sent me.


41 He that receiveth a prophet in the name of a prophet shall receive a prophet's reward; and he that receiveth a righteous man in the name of a righteous man shall receive a righteous man's reward.


42 And whosoever shall give to drink unto one of these little ones a cup of cold water only in the name of a disciple, verily I say unto you, he shall in no wise lose his reward.



MESSAGE

Peter's encounter with Jesus at the Lake of Gennesaret, is a pointer to the fact that our Lord is indeed a generous rewarder (Luke 5:1-7). He allowed the Lord to use his boat as a pulpit and was rewarded with such a great catch of fish that his boat began to sink; he had to call additional hands to help him manage his breakthrough.


There are many areas of service that attract God's generous rewards. One of such is partnering with God to advance the agenda of heaven; this was what happened in Peter's case. Another act that brings heavenly rewards is obedience to the Lord's instructions. You can see this in the story of Abraham, who obeyed God when he was instructed to get out of his father's house to a place God would show him (Genesis 12:1-4). He obeyed, even though he did not know where he was going. As if that wasn't enough, when he was eventually blessed with Isaac, the child of promise, he was asked to sacrifice him as a burnt offering, and again, he obeyed. As a result of his obedience, God rewarded him with an everlasting covenant of blessing and multiplication (Genesis 22:15- 17).


Another area of service that receives God's attention for generous rewards is hospitality. An example is the story of the Shunammite woman who was so generous to Prophet Elisha that the Lord rewarded her with a son - a gift money could not buy (2 Kings 4:8-17). The story of the widow of Zarephath is another example of how God rewards hospitality (1 Kings 17:9-16). She sacrificed her last meal and that brought about meals that sustained her family throughout a famine. The Bible says in Hebrews 13:2:


Be not forgetful to entertain strangers: for thereby some have entertained angels unawares.


God also rewards people who host His presence in their homes. According to 2 Samuel 6:11-14, God blessed Obed-Edom so much for housing the ark of the covenant that he became the envy of the king. This is a great lesson to those who are reluctant to submit their homes as house Fellowship meeting centers. Such people don't know the blessing they are missing out on by denying God the use of their space.


Beloved, as today's memory verse declares, our God is a rewarder of those who diligently seek, serve, obey, and honor Him. Use this to your advantage today.



KEY POINT

God never overlooks anything you do for Him. He will always reward you.



BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: Job 1-4



AUTHOR: PASTOR E.A. ADEBOYE



HYMN 26: THERE SHALL BE SHOWERS OF BLESSINGS 


1 There shall be showers of blessing:


 This is the promise of love;


There shall be seasons refreshing,


 Sent from the Savior above.



Refrain


Showers of blessing,


Showers of blessing we need;


Mercy-drops round us are falling,


 But for the showers we plead.



2 There shall be showers of blessing


Precious reviving again;


Over the hills and the valleys,


Sound of abundance of rain.



3 There shall be showers of blessing;


Send them upon us, O Lord!


Grant to us now a refreshing;


Come, and now honor Thy Word.



4 There shall be showers of blessing;


O that today they might fall,


Now as to God we’re confessing,


Now as on Jesus we call!



5 There shall be showers of blessing,


If we but trust and obey;


There shall be seasons refreshing,


If we let God have His way.

THEME: THE BENEFITS OF KNOWING JESUS


MEMORISE: 

And such as do wickedly against the covenant shall he corrupt by flatteries: but the people that do know their God shall be strong, and do exploits.

Daniel 11:32


READ: Philippians 3:7-11 

7 But what things were gain to me, those I counted loss for Christ.


8 Yea doubtless, and I count all things but loss for the excellency of the knowledge of Christ Jesus my Lord: for whom I have suffered the loss of all things, and do count them but dung, that I may win Christ,


9 And be found in him, not having mine own righteousness, which is of the law, but that which is through the faith of Christ, the righteousness which is of God by faith:


10 That I may know him, and the power of his resurrection, and the fellowship of his sufferings, being made conformable unto his death;


11 If by any means I might attain unto the resurrection of the dead.


MESSAGE

The joy that comes from knowing God is immeasurable. However, joy is just one of the many benefits enjoyed by those who know Him. From our memory verse, you will understand that those who know their God will be strong and do exploits. As a Christian, you do not have to be fearful about the challenges that come with everyday life. God has empowered you to overcome whatever obstacles you might encounter. The Bible says in Romans 8:37:


...we are more than conquerors through him that loved us.


Furthermore, knowing Jesus empowers you to walk in victory every day and to be bold in the face of trials (Proverbs 28:1). Fear can paralyze a fellow, but God has not given you the spirit of fear, but of power, love and a sound mind (2 Timothy 1:7). Knowing God and understanding His perfect love for you enables you to live above fear. The Bible says in 1 John 4:18:


There is no fear in love; but perfect love casteth out fear: because fear hath torment. He that feareth is not made perfect in love.


After his encounter with the Lord, Paul was so full of joy from knowing the true God that he penned the words of today's Bible reading, in which he confessed wholeheartedly that Jesus was everything to him. Even after he had attained great heights in the Lord, he still longed to know Him better because he discovered that the more of Jesus he knew, the more joyful, fulfilled, satisfied and hopeful of eternal life he became. I pray that you will experience this type of joy, in Jesus' name.


Beloved, knowing Jesus increases your faith in Him, and as you increase in faith, you please God more. The Bible says in Hebrews 11:6 that without faith, it is impossible to please God. The joy of having eternal life is drawn from knowing Jesus. John 17:3 says:


And this is life eternal, that they might know thee the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom thou hast sent.


To know Jesus is to know peace because He is the Prince of peace (Isaiah 9:6). Knowing Jesus is knowing prosperity and abundance (Matthew 14:14-21, 2 Corinthians 8:9). Knowing Him is knowing divine healing and, better still, divine health (1 Peter 2:24). All these and more are the benefits of knowing our Savior. Beloved, do you truly know Jesus?


PRAYER POINT

Father, please reveal more of Your Son to me daily.


BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: Esther 6-10


AUTHOR: PASTOR E.A. ADEBOYE


HYMN 27: WHAT A FRIEND WE HAVE IN JESUS

1 What a friend we have in Jesus,

all our sins and griefs to bear!

What a privilege to carry

everything to God in prayer!

O what peace we often forfeit,

O what needless pain we bear,

all because we do not carry

everything to God in prayer!


2 Have we trials and temptations?

Is there trouble anywhere?

We should never be discouraged;

take it to the Lord in prayer!

Can we find a friend so faithful

who will all our sorrows share?

Jesus knows our every weakness;

take it to the Lord in prayer!


3 Are we weak and heavy laden,

cumbered with a load of care?

Precious Savior, still our refuge--

take it to the Lord in prayer!

Do your friends despise, forsake you?

Take it to the Lord in prayer!

In his arms he'll take and shield you;

you will find a solace there

Open Heavens Daily Devotional by Pastor E.A. Adeboye

OPEN HEAVENS DAILY DEVOTIONAL


DATE: FRIDAY MAY 24TH, 2024.


THEME: POWER TO PROSPER


MEMORISE: 

But thou shalt remember the LORD thy God: for it is he that giveth thee power to get wealth, that he may establish his covenant which he sware unto thy fathers, as it is this day.     

Deuteronomy 8:18


READ: Deuteronomy 8:6-18 

6 Therefore thou shalt keep the commandments of the LORD thy God, to walk in his ways, and to fear him.


7 For the LORD thy God bringeth thee into a good land, a land of brooks of water, of fountains and depths that spring out of valleys and hills;


8 A land of wheat, and barley, and vines, and fig trees, and pomegranates; a land of oil olive, and honey;


9 A land wherein thou shalt eat bread without scarceness, thou shalt not lack any thing in it; a land whose stones are iron, and out of whose hills thou mayest dig brass.


10 When thou hast eaten and art full, then thou shalt bless the LORD thy God for the good land which he hath given thee.


11 Beware that thou forget not the LORD thy God, in not keeping his commandments, and his judgments, and his statutes, which I command thee this day:


12 Lest when thou hast eaten and art full, and hast built goodly houses, and dwelt therein;


13 And when thy herds and thy flocks multiply, and thy silver and thy gold is multiplied, and all that thou hast is multiplied;


14 Then thine heart be lifted up, and thou forget the LORD thy God, which brought thee forth out of the land of Egypt, from the house of bondage;


15 Who led thee through that great and terrible wilderness, wherein were fiery serpents, and scorpions, and drought, where there was no water; who brought thee forth water out of the rock of flint;


16 Who fed thee in the wilderness with manna, which thy fathers knew not, that he might humble thee, and that he might prove thee, to do thee good at thy latter end;


17 And thou say in thine heart, My power and the might of mine hand hath gotten me this wealth.


18 But thou shalt remember the LORD thy God: for it is he that giveth thee power to get wealth, that he may establish his covenant which he sware unto thy fathers, as it is this day.


MESSAGE

In today's memory verse, the Lord reveals Himself as the source of power for prosperity. It is the blessing of the Lord that gives riches without any sorrow (Proverbs 10:22). Those who desire to prosper without sorrow will therefore pay attention to the path of prosperity He has in His word. Today's Bible reading also contains truths from God's word that can deliver any soul from the bondage of poverty. Your Father in heaven wants you to prosper greatly, and so, we will examine a few of these truths today.


Firstly, the Lord told the children of Israel that the land He was giving them was being taken care of by Him from heaven. In other words, the land would yield its best to them because He was in charge of it, not because of their own efforts. To emphasize this, the Lord described the land to them further, saying in Deuteronomy 11:12:


A land which the LORD thy God careth for: the eyes of the LORD thy God are always upon it, from the beginning of the year even unto the end of the year.


Therefore, to prosper in this world, you need to look away from the present economic situation around you and focus on the economy of heaven that is managed all year round by the Almighty Himself.


For the economy of your life to respond to the laws of heaven, you must be subject to the laws of heaven. Many people get excited about God's promises but fail to do their part, therefore, they do not experience the fulfilment of the promises. God gives those who acknowledge Him as their Creator, Redeemer, and Lord the power to prosper. Do you regard God as your Creator? Do you honor Jesus Christ as your Redeemer, or do you take His death for granted by going back to sin even though you have been saved? For God to prosper you, you must honor Him as God indeed. Today, He is asking you the same question He asked the Israelites in Malachi 1:6:


A son honoureth his father, and a servant his master: if then I be a father, where is mine honour? and if I be a master, where is my fear?


If you truly desire the power to prosper from God, you must ensure that your life honors Him. You must also ensure that you fear Him and love Him with all your heart, soul and mind (Matthew 22:37).


PRAYER POINT

Father, give me the power to prosper indeed, in Jesus


BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: Esther 1-5


AUTHOR: PASTOR E.A. ADEBOYE


HYMN 26: THERE SHALL BE SHOWERS OF BLESSINGS 


1 There shall be showers of blessing:

This is the promise of love;

There shall be seasons refreshing,

Sent from the Savior above.


Refrain

Showers of blessing,

Showers of blessing we need;

Mercy-drops round us are falling,

But for the showers we plead.


2 There shall be showers of blessing

Precious reviving again;

Over the hills and the valleys,

Sound of abundance of rain.


3 There shall be showers of blessing;

Send them upon us, O Lord!

Grant to us now a refreshing;

Come, and now honor Thy Word.


4 There shall be showers of blessing;

O that today they might fall,

Now as to God we’re confessing,

Now as on Jesus we call!


5 There shall be showers of blessing,

If we but trust and obey;

There shall be seasons refreshing,

If we let God have His way.

Open Heavens Daily Devotional by Pastor E.A. Adeboye

OPEN HEAVENS DAILY DEVOTIONAL


DATE: THURSDAY MAY 23RD, 2024.


THEME: THE EVER-PRESENT HELP


MEMORISE: 

But the salvation of the righteous is of the LORD: he is their strength in the time of trouble.       

Psalm 37:39


READ: Psalms 46:1-7 

1 God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble.


2 Therefore will not we fear, though the earth be removed, and though the mountains be carried into the midst of the sea;


3 Though the waters thereof roar and be troubled, though the mountains shake with the swelling thereof. Selah.


4 There is a river, the streams whereof shall make glad the city of God, the holy place of the tabernacles of the most High.


5 God is in the midst of her; she shall not be moved: God shall help her, and that right early.


6 The heathen raged, the kingdoms were moved: he uttered his voice, the earth melted.


7 The LORD of hosts is with us; the God of Jacob is our refuge. Selah.


MESSAGE

Many children of God do not fully comprehend the fact that our God is Omnipresent. When you really understand this truth, your heart will be filled with resounding joy, irrespective of whatever situation you might be going through. In Psalm 46:1, the psalmist revealed Him to us as the Present Help. To reassure us of this, God spoke to us through His prophet in Isaiah 43:2, saying:


When thou passest through the waters, I will be with thee; and through the rivers, they shall not overflow thee: when thou walkest through the fire, thou shalt not be burned; neither shall the  flame kindle upon thee.


To further convince us beyond any shadow of doubt, God manifested Himself in the flesh and said to us in Mathew 28:20:


...lo, I am with you alway, even unto the end of the world. Amen.


How comforting and encouraging this is. No wonder Paul was able to say in Romans 8:31:


What shall we then say to these things? If God be for us, who can be against us?


The reason no one can be against you is that the presence of God is always there to chase any kind of danger and shame away from you. It was the Present Help who saved me from the financial embarrassment of not having enough to feed the crowd that came for one of our conventions. My wife came to me asking for additional money to keep feeding the crowd when the convention was just halfway through. I did not have any money, but the Lord showed up in His usual way of proving Himself mighty in my life. He sent people to me who met this need, and in the end, we had more than enough to feed the crowd. Another time, I was almost stranded during one of my trips to a foreign country because my flight was delayed for one day, and I had spent all the money with me. I prayed to the Present Help, and before I went to bed that night I had more than enough for the rest of my trip.


In today's Bible reading, you are encouraged to be of good courage because God is with you in spite of the enemy's plans to harm you (1 Peter 5:8).


Beloved, to enjoy this divine comprehensive insurance, you need to belong to the family of the Present Help. Give your life to Him and make a commitment to love what He loves and hate what He hates. You will begin to experience His presence wherever you go.


PRAYER POINT

Father, thank you for always being with me. l am Confident because you are always present with me.


BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: Nehemiah 11-13


AUTHOR: PASTOR E.A. ADEBOYE


HYMN 30: WHEN WE WALK WITH THE LORD 


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 Not a burden we bear, 

not a sorrow we share, 

but our toil he doth richly repay; 

not a grief or a loss, 

not a frown or a cross, 

but is blest if we trust and obey. 


3 But we never can prove 

the delights of his love 

until all on the altar we lay; 

for the favor he shows, 

for the joy he bestows, 

are for them who will trust and obey. 


4 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.

Open Heavens Daily Devotional by Pastor E.A. Adeboye

OPEN HEAVENS DEVOTIONAL



DATE: WEDNESDAY MAY 22ND 2024



THEME: WHAT IS YOUR FOCUS?



MEMORISE: Set your affection on things above, not on things on the earth.

Colossians 3:2


READ: Colossians 3:1-4 

1 If ye then be risen with Christ, seek those things which are above, where Christ sitteth on the right hand of God.


2 Set your affection on things above, not on things on the earth.


3 For ye are dead, and your life is hid with Christ in God.


4 When Christ, who is our life, shall appear, then shall ye also appear with him in glory.



MESSAGE

From my experience as a lecturer before going into full-time ministry, I know that in a class, not everyone's focus is on understanding what is being taught. Some students are focused on the teacher's clothes, some on how he talks, others on impressing other students, and so on. What is worthy of note is that those who focus on less important things lose a whole lot in the end.


This same thing plays out in God's kingdom; many Christians do not focus on the right things. All some Christians want from God is a new car, a new house, a promotion and so on. I pity such Christians because they might get what they are focused on but lose out on the more important things they have ignored.


Jesus Christ said that you should seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all other things shall be added to you (Matthew 6:33). In other words, if you just focus on making it to heaven by being righteous here on earth, cars, houses and other material things will automatically come your way. I am a living testimony of what Jesus said in this verse of Scripture. I set my focus on the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and now, I can't count how many of these other things I have. The best part is that I am also on my way to heaven.


Why focus on things that are temporary instead of things that are eternal? Focus on the eternal things, and the temporary things will follow. Many people never reach the heights that God has ordained for them because somewhere along the line, they take their focus away from heaven and start pursuing material things. Their prayers change from, "Lord, help me to love You more" to "Lord, give me this and that. " You need to remember that when the roll is called up yonder, none of these things will matter anymore. Ask anyone who has had a near- death experience, and they will tell you that material things, as flashy as they may seem, are not worth all the attention given to them. From now on, make Paul's admonition in 2 Corinthians 4:18 your lifestyle:


While we look not at the things which are seen, but at the things which are not seen: for the things which are seen are temporal; but the things which are not seen are eternal.



REFLECTION

Search your heart; what really are you focused on?



BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: Nehemiah 8-10



AUTHOR: PASTOR E. A ADEBOYE



HYMN 10: IN CHRIST ALONE


1 In Christ alone my hope is found 


He is my light, my strength, my song 


This cornerstone, this solid ground 


Firm through the fiercest drought and storm 


What heights of love, what depths of peace 


When fears are stilled, when strivings cease 


My comforter, my all in all 


Here in the love of Christ I stand  



2 In Christ alone who took on flesh 


Fullness of God in helpless babe 


This gift of love and righteousness 


Scorned by the ones He came to save 


Till on that cross as Jesus died 


The wrath of God was satisfied 


For every sin on Him was laid 


Here in the death of Christ I live  


There in the ground His body lay 



3 Light of the world by darkness slain 


Then bursting forth in glorious day 


Up from the grave He rose again 


And as He stands in victory 


Sin's curse has lost its grip on me 


For I am His and He is mine 


Bought with the precious blood of Christ  



4 No guilt in life, no fear in death 


This is the power of Christ in me 


 life's first cry to final breath 


Jesus commands my destiny 


No power of hell, no scheme of man 


Can ever pluck me from His hand 


Till He returns or calls me home 


Here in the power of Christ I'll stand
