TOPIC: FROM 'HOPELESS' TO 'TESTIMONY'


MEMORISE

“For with God nothing shall be impossible.” - (Luke 1:37)


READ: Ezekiel 37:1-10 (KJV)


1 The hand of the Lord was upon me, and carried me out in the spirit of the Lord, and set me down in the midst of the valley which was full of bones,


2 And caused me to pass by them round about: and, behold, there were very many in the open valley; and, lo, they were very dry.


3 And he said unto me, Son of man, can these bones live? And I answered, O Lord God, thou knowest.


4 Again he said unto me, Prophesy upon these bones, and say unto them, O ye dry bones, hear the word of the Lord.


5 Thus saith the Lord God unto these bones; Behold, I will cause breath to enter into you, and ye shall live:


6 And I will lay sinews upon you, and will bring up flesh upon you, and cover you with skin, and put breath in you, and ye shall live; and ye shall know that I am the Lord.


7 So I prophesied as I was commanded: and as I prophesied, there was a noise, and behold a shaking, and the bones came together, bone to his bone.


8 And when I beheld, lo, the sinews and the flesh came up upon them, and the skin covered them above: but there was no breath in them.


9 Then said he unto me, Prophesy unto the wind, prophesy, son of man, and say to the wind, Thus saith the Lord God; Come from the four winds, O breath, and breathe upon these slain, that they may live.


10 So I prophesied as he commanded me, and the breath came into them, and they lived, and stood up upon their feet, an exceeding great army.


MESSAGE

Several years ago, we held a Holy Ghost Service at the National Stadium in Surulere, Lagos. During the service, the Lord said that there was somebody in the congregation who had only one kidney because the other one had been removed through surgery. The Lord further said that the remaining kidney was not in good condition, so He would give the person two brand-new kidneys. If I had not recognized the voice of God, I wouldn't have dared to tell the congregation what I heard. A man in the congregation knew that the Lord was talking about him because one of his kidneys had been surgically removed, and the other one was not functioning properly. On Saturday morning, as soon as the programme was over, he went straight to the hospital where the surgery to remove his kidney was done and asked the surgeon to examine him. The surgeon said, "I remember your case; the day we were removing your kidney, everything went wrong. The surgery that was supposed to take less than an hour lasted eight hours." When the surgeons examined him, they found two brand-new kidneys. When God, who is the God of hope (Romans 15:13), steps into a case, that case changes its status from 'hopeless' to 'testimony'.


God gives victory over hopelessness. For example, in Genesis 18:9-14, when He told Abraham that Sarah would have a son in nine months, Sarah laughed because she thought the situation was hopeless. However, the Almighty God, who could have said, "Because you laughed, I cancel what I have said," did not change his mind. Instead, He said, "You can laugh as much as you like, but Isaac will be born." Beloved, if you have considered your situation as hopeless before now, I have good news for you today. In the name that is above every other name, your Isaac will be born.


There is no hopeless case with God. Jeremiah 32:27 says, "Behold, I am the LORD, the God of all flesh: is there any thing too hard for me?" In Ezekiel 37:1-10 the Bible tells us that the Almighty God caused dry bones to live again. They were not just dead bodies; they were very dry bones. Yet, the Lord God caused His servant to prophesy, and the dry bones came back to life.


Beloved, the God who made dry bones to live again can take care of your situation. Men may have written you off, but with God, nothing is impossible (Luke 1:37). 


KEY POINT

God specialises in turning impossible and hopeless situations around.

THEME: ASK FOR LIGHT


MEMORISE: 

And the light shineth in darkness; and the darkness comprehended it not.  John 1:5


READ:   Mark 10:46-52 


46 And they came to Jericho: and as he went out of Jericho with his disciples and a great number of people, blind Bartimaeus, the son of Timaeus, sat by the highway side begging.


47 And when he heard that it was Jesus of Nazareth, he began to cry out, and say, Jesus, thou Son of David, have mercy on me.


48 And many charged him that he should hold his peace: but he cried the more a great deal, Thou Son of David, have mercy on me.


49 And Jesus stood still, and commanded him to be called. And they call the blind man, saying unto him, Be of good comfort, rise; he calleth thee.


50 And he, casting away his garment, rose, and came to Jesus.


51 And Jesus answered and said unto him, What wilt thou that I should do unto thee? The blind man said unto him, Lord, that I might receive my sight.


52 And Jesus said unto him, Go thy way; thy faith hath made thee whole. And immediately he received his sight, and followed Jesus in the way.


MESSAGE 

When God created the world in Genesis 1:1-31, the first thing He made was light. This is because when light is present, it becomes easy to put every other thing in place.


In today's Bible reading, a blind beggar called Bartimaeus was crying desperately for the attention of Jesus Christ. He was living in the bondage of poverty and was likely a lonely man who had nobody to help him. His case seemed to be a hopeless one simply because he could not see. When Jesus asked him what he wanted, he asked for the ability to see. He could have asked for money and clothes, but all he asked for was the ability to see light. Your ability to see, physically and spiritually, is far more beneficial than money and clothes.


When God's light comes, every form of darkness and sorrow disappears. The question now is, how can you let the light of God into your life? Jesus said in John 8:12 that He is the Light of the world. If you let Jesus into your life, His light will shine in you and chase out every form of darkness. He will shine so much in you that you will begin to shine on others. This is why He said in Matthew 5:14 that you are the light of the world.


Through you, darkness will leave your family, and everyone who comes in contact with you will benefit from the light you carry. Before I became born again, there were curses and sorrows in the Adeboye family. However, after the Light -Jesus Christ -came into my life, every generational curse was broken. Poverty and sorrows were also banished forever. 


Therefore, if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new.   2 Corinthians 5:17


Beloved, no matter how potent the generational curses or forces of darkness that might be holding you back are, once you surrender your life to Jesus Christ, all things will become new, and His light will drive darkness away from you. If you are however not yet born again, please say the following prayer:

Lord Jesus, l acknowledge that I have been living in darkness. Now, l am ready for Your light. Please, come into my life and make me a new creature in You. I denounce every sin I used to commit (mention all), and I accept You as my Lord and Savior. Thank You, Jesus.


PRAYER POINT 

Father, please let Your light shine over everything that concerns me, in Jesus’ name.


BIBLE IN ONE YEAR:  Ezekiel 39-40


AUTHOR: PASTOR E. A ADEBOYE


HYMN 23: TAKE MY LIFE AND LET IT BE

Consecrated, Lord, to Thee;

Take my moments and my days,

2 Take my hands, and let them move

At the impulse of Thy love;

Every power as Thou shalt choose,

Every power as Thou shalt choose.


5 Take my will, and make it Thine;

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.

“For the transgression of a land many are the princes thereof: but by a man of understanding and knowledge the state thereof shall be prolonged.” - (Proverbs 28:2)


BIBLE READING: 1 TIMOTHY 2:1-2 (KJV)

HYMN: 22 - SWEET HOUR OF PRAYER! 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!

TOPIC: BLESSED ARE THE HUNGRY


MEMORISE

“Blessed are ye that hunger now: for ye shall be filled. Blessed are ye that weep now: for ye shall laugh.” - (Luke 6:21)


READ: Acts 8:27-39 (KJV)


27 And he arose and went: and, behold, a man of Ethiopia, an eunuch of great authority under Candace queen of the Ethiopians, who had the charge of all her treasure, and had come to Jerusalem for to worship,


28 Was returning, and sitting in his chariot read Esaias the prophet.


29 Then the Spirit said unto Philip, Go near, and join thyself to this chariot.


30 And Philip ran thither to him, and heard him read the prophet Esaias, and said, Understandest thou what thou readest?


31 And he said, How can I, except some man should guide me? And he desired Philip that he would come up and sit with him.


32 The place of the scripture which he read was this, He was led as a sheep to the slaughter; and like a lamb dumb before his shearer, so opened he not his mouth:


33 In his humiliation his judgment was taken away: and who shall declare his generation? for his life is taken from the earth.


34 And the eunuch answered Philip, and said, I pray thee, of whom speaketh the prophet this? of himself, or of some other man?


35 Then Philip opened his mouth, and began at the same scripture, and preached unto him Jesus.


36 And as they went on their way, they came unto a certain water: and the eunuch said, See, here is water; what doth hinder me to be baptized?


37 And Philip said, If thou believest with all thine heart, thou mayest. And he answered and said, I believe that Jesus Christ is the Son of God.


38 And he commanded the chariot to stand still: and they went down both into the water, both Philip and the eunuch; and he baptized him.


39 And when they were come up out of the water, the Spirit of the Lord caught away Philip, that the eunuch saw him no more: and he went on his way rejoicing.


MESSAGE

O God, thou art my God; early will I seek thee: my soul thirsteth for thee, my flesh longeth for thee in a dry and thirsty land, where no water is; (Psalm 63:1)


The Scripture above was written by David in the wilderness of Judah. A wilderness is often characterised by a lack of food and water, and even though David might have been hungry and thirsty, he expressed a much greater desire for something more than food and water - God's presence. No wonder God called David a man after His own heart (Acts 13:22).


In today's Bible reading, we read about the Ethiopian eunuch who had travelled many miles to Jerusalem to worship God. However, he had many questions as he was returning to his home country. As he travelled on the dusty roads of Gaza, an angel spoke to Phillip and told him to position himself on the road the eunuch was travelling on. As Phillip stood by the road, the Holy Spirit gave him an additional instruction to move closer to the man's chariot. God was so interested in the eunuch that He moved everything - an angel, a man, and His Spirit - to give him the answers he desired (Acts 8:26-40). This is what happens when God sees genuine hunger for Him in the life of a fellow. He will never let the hungry go away without being filled, and He will always fill them with good things (Luke 1:53).


Blessed are they which do hunger and thirst after righteousness: for they shall be filled. (Matthew 5:6)


God feeds you in proportion to your hunger for Him. Psalm 42:7 says, "...deep calleth unto deep..." When you really want to go deep in God, your hunger will attract the resources you need to go deep. A hungry and thirsty fellow is one who is desperate for food and water. In the same vein, God expects us to hunger and thirst for His power and glory. He expects us to desperately pursue Him and seek intimacy with Him. Jesus gave a parable in Matthew 13:44-46 that the Kingdom of God is like a man who found treasure in a field and sold all that he had so he could buy that field and own the treasure. Just like that man in the parable, God wants you to be hungry for Him so you can be filled and reflect more of His glory on the earth. 


REFLECTION

Are you truly hungry for God?

 OPEN HEAVEN DAILY DEVOTIONAL 


DATE: WEDNESDAY SEPTEMBER 3RD 2025


THEME:  BANISH LAZINESS


MEMORISE: 

He becometh poor that dealeth with a slack hand: but the hand of the diligent maketh rich. Proverbs 10:4


READ: Proverbs 6:6-11 

6 Go to the ant, thou sluggard; consider her ways, and be wise:


7 Which having no guide, overseer, or ruler,


8 Provideth her meat in the summer, and gathereth her food in the harvest.


9 How long wilt thou sleep, O sluggard? when wilt thou arise out of thy sleep?


10 Yet a little sleep, a little slumber, a little folding of the hands to sleep:


11 So shall thy poverty come as one that travelleth, and thy want as an armed man.


MESSAGE 

God rewards those who diligently seek Him (Hebrews 11:6); He does not reward the lazy. If vou want to be successful, then you must be diligent. land one of my friends got born again at a time when making positive confessions was becoming popular among Christians. At that time, the popular teaching was, 'All you need to do is to say what you want repeatedly, and it will be yours. 


This friend of mine was very diligent with making these positive confessions. He would wake up in the morning and say, "I have a brand new car, in the mighty name of Jesus." Five years later, he was yet to own a car. One day, he asked me, "What's your secret? I've been making positive confessions without tangible results." I replied, "You wake up at 10 am in the morning, and at that time, I would have already put in five hours of work. Also, instead of working, you start making confessions. l'm sorry, but you will keep walking everywhere you go for a long time to come if you don't change."


Some people have become so attached to motivational speaking. They are usually the first to register for conferences; however, when it is time to put in the work, they are often nowhere to be found. No amount of confessions or unapplied knowledge can turn a lazy fellow into a high flyer. A fellow who doesn't wake up every day to make positive confessions or listen to smooth-talking motivational speakers will still succeed if he or she knows how to work hard.


Although I'm in my 80s, I still go about doing God's work diligently. When many other people are sleeping, I am walking about at night, praying. I don't preach shallow sermons; if you listen to my sermons, you will notice that I make reference to many Bible passages. These things don't come by just loafing around. Success in life is not automatic; being born a prince or princess does not mean that a fellow will succeed in life. No matter how much wealth a fellow inherits, if he or she is lazy and refuses to put in the work to multiply the wealth, that fellow will eventually squander everything and begin to suffer. Proverbs 18:9 says that a lazy person is a brother to him who is a great waster.

Beloved, laziness will make you waste privileges. lt will also make you unprepared to maximise opportunities. Do not give laziness a chance; banish it from every area of your lie.


KEY POINT 

Laziness will make you unprepared for opportunities and cause you to waste privileges.


BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: Ezekiel 31-32


AUTHOR: PASTOR E. A ADEBOYE


HYMN 4: TO THE WORK, TO THE WORK

1 To the work! to the work! we are servants of God, Let us follow the path that our Master has trod; With the balm of His counsel our strength to renew, Let us do with our might what our hands find to do.


Refrain: 

Toiling on, toiling on, Toiling on, toiling on: Let us hope, let us watch, And labor till the Master comes.


2 To the work! to the work! let the hungry be fed; To the fountain of life let the weary be led; In the cross and its banner our glory shall be, While we herald the tidings, "Salvation is free!" 


3 To the work! to the work! there is labor for all; For the kingdom of darkness and error shall fall; And the name of Jehovah exalted shall be, In the loud-swelling chorus, "Salvation is free!" 


4 To the work! to the work! in the strength of the Lord, And a robe and a crown shall our labor reward; When the home of the faithful our dwelling shall be, And we shout with the ransomed, "Salvation is free!"

 OPEN HEAVENS DAILY DEVOTIONAL


DATE: TUESDAY 2ND  SEPTEMBER  2025

 

THEME: FAITH WITHOUT WORKS


MEMORISE: 

Even so faith, if it hath not works, is dead, being alone. 

James 2:17


READ: James 2:20-26


20 But wilt thou know, O vain man, that faith without works is dead?


21 Was not Abraham our father justified by works, when he had offered Isaac his son upon the altar?


22 Seest thou how faith wrought with his works, and by works was faith made perfect?


23 And the scripture was fulfilled which saith, Abraham believed God, and it was imputed unto him for righteousness: and he was called the Friend of God.


24 Ye see then how that by works a man is justified, and not by faith only.


25 Likewise also was not Rahab the harlot justified by works, when she had received the messengers, and had sent them out another way?


26 For as the body without the spirit is dead, so faith without works is dead also.


MESSAGE

Years ago, some Christian students in a particular university came to me and said, “We don’t know what is going on. Those of us who are in the fellowship are always the ones failing.” I replied them, “This might be because, at the time you are supposed to be studying, you are in the fellowship.”

They said, “Is it not written that the Holy Spirit will help us?” I responded, “Thank God for the Holy Spirit, but the Bible says that the Holy Spirit will remind you of the things you have learnt.

However, if you do not learn anything and end up failing, after He chastises you, He will comfort you.”


Beloved, to walk in God’s blessings, faith must go hand-in-hand with works. For example, in Luke 5:1-9, Jesus came to Peter, who had a boat and asked him to lend Him the boat for a while. After preaching from the boat, Jesus told Peter to cast his net into the sea for a catch. If Peter had not cast his net, he would not have seen the glory of God. If he had just said, “I believe you, Jesus. 

I know You can do all things,” and had refused to obey the simple instruction, he would have returned home empty-handed that night.


Instead, he said, “At thy word – because You have spoken to me – I will do what You say.” He took a step of faith and did the work of throwing his net into the sea. Then, he caught so many fishes that his net broke. People who add works to their faith experience ‘net-breaking’ miracles.


Another example of someone in the Bible who added works to their faith is the woman with the issue of blood in Luke 8:43-48. She did not just stop at knowing that Jesus carried the healing anointing, she forced her way through a large crowd just to touch the hem of His garment.

The result was that she was instantly healed of a sickness she had suffered from for 12 years.


If you are not doing anything in line with the faith you claim to have, that faith is dead. You cannot sit in your house and pray for a job when you are not applying for any. Likewise, you cannot be trusting God for a visa to another country when you do not even have an international passport. Bring your faith to life by adding works to it; faith without works is dead.


Action Point 

Take steps of faith concerning the things you are trusting God for.


BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: Ezekiel 28-30


AUTHOR: PASTOR E. A ADEBOYE


HYMN 33: GUIDE ME, O THOU GREAT JEHOVAH!


1 Guide me, O my great Redeemer,

pilgrim through this barren land;

I am weak, but you are mighty;

hold me with your powerful hand.

Bread of heaven, bread of heaven,

feed me now and evermore,

feed me now and evermore.


2 Open now the crystal fountain,

where the healing waters flow.

Let the fire and cloudy pillar

lead me all my journey through.

Strong Deliverer, strong Deliverer,

ever be my strength and shield,

ever be my strength and shield.


3 When I tread the verge of Jordan,

bid my anxious fears subside.

Death of death, and hell's Destruction,

land me safe on Canaan's side.

Songs of praises, songs of praises

I will ever sing to you,

I will ever sing to you.

Open Heavens Daily Devotional by Pastor E A ADEBOYE

 OPEN HEAVENS DAILY DEVOTIONAL 


DATE: MONDAY, SEPTEMBER 1, 2025.


TOPIC: ALLOW NO BARRIERS TO THE GOSPEL


MEMORISE

“The Spirit of the Lord GOD is upon me; because the LORD hath anointed me to preach good tidings unto the meek; he hath sent me to bind up the brokenhearted, to proclaim liberty to the captives, and the opening of the prison to them that are bound.” - (Isaiah 61:1)


READ: 1 Corinthians 9:16-17 (KJV)


16 For though I preach the gospel, I have nothing to glory of: for necessity is laid upon me; yea, woe is unto me, if I preach not the gospel!


17 For if I do this thing willingly, I have a reward: but if against my will, a dispensation of the gospel is committed unto me.


MESSAGE


People keep asking why The Redeemed Christian Church of God is so successful all over the world. As a matter of fact, we are in some nations where Christianity is not allowed. In some of these nations, we baptise people secretly, and whenever we want to talk about the blood of Jesus, we say BOJ. We have had considerable impact in some of these nations because we did not allow anything deter us from spreading the gospel. We hold Bible Study meetings in open fields and miracles happen. Sometimes, the political leaders in such places come quietly at night, acknowledging that our God is the Almighty.


There was once a lady evangelist and missionary who was working in a village in Africa. In that village, she got everybody to become born again. The people realised what God had done for them, and they were on fire for Him. The lady then decided to convert those in the neighbouring village too. She informed the people around her about her plans, but they were not in favour of it. "You can go to another village, ma'am, not there," they advised. She asked, "Why not?" They replied, "Because there are lions on the way. We have been hearing them roaring, and when they roar like that, it means they are hungry. Please, don't go near that village." "But I must go," she insisted. So, a very elderly and feeble man said to her, "Okay, if you must go, I will go with you." The evangelist looked at him and said, "If a lion attacks, even I can defend myself better than you can." The man said, "You don't understand; lions don't attack when they are full. They only kill when they are hungry. So, the idea is this: I will walk ahead of you, the lions will kill and eat me, and then your way will be clear." Those villagers were ready to lay down their lives for the gospel to reach the unreached.


Beloved, God will not be asking you for too much by telling you to preach to your boss, for instance. However, if you are afraid you might lose your job and refuse to do it, you will be hindering an unsaved soul from hearing the gospel and becoming saved. Do not let any barrier keep you from preaching the gospel; God is counting on you to prevent many people from heading towards eternal damnation. 


ACTION POINT

Always use every opportunity you have to tell people about Jesus. 


AUTHOR: Pastor E. A. Adeboye 


BIBLE IN ONE YEAR

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.


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.


4. Take my silver and my gold, Not a mite would I withhold, Take my intellect, and use 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, 


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.

Open Heavens Daily Devotional by Pastor E A ADEBOYE

 OPEN HEAVENS DAILY DEVOTIONAL 


DATE: SUNDAY 31ST AUGUST 2025


TOPIC: PRAISE THE LORD


MEMORIZE:

“Let every thing that hath breath praise the LORD. Praise ye the LORD.” Psalm 150:6 (KJV)


BIBLE READING: PSALM 107:1-9

1 O give thanks unto the Lord, for he is good: for his mercy endureth for ever.


2 Let the redeemed of the Lord say so, whom he hath redeemed from the hand of the enemy;


3 And gathered them out of the lands, from the east, and from the west, from the north, and from the south.


4 They wandered in the wilderness in a solitary way; they found no city to dwell in.


5 Hungry and thirsty, their soul fainted in them.


6 Then they cried unto the Lord in their trouble, and he delivered them out of their distresses.


7 And he led them forth by the right way, that they might go to a city of habitation.


8 Oh that men would praise the Lord for his goodness, and for his wonderful works to the children of men!


9 For he satisfieth the longing soul, and filleth the hungry soul with goodness.


MESSAGE:

In (2 Samuel 6:14), the Bible says that David danced with all his might. God loved David so much and was always with him because he was always praising Him. Whenever demons tormented Saul and David played the harp, God's presence would fill the room, and the demons would run away (1 Samuel 16:23). Psalm 22:3 says that God inhabits the praises of Israel. When you praise God regularly, demons cannot stay around you because once light comes in, darkness must flee (John 1:5).


Beloved, you must learn to praise God daily. In the Scriptures, you'll find many reasons to praise Him. In Genesis 17:1, God calls Himself Jehovah Elshaddai, the God who is more than enough. In Genesis 18:9-14 and Jeremiah 32:27, He is revealed as the God of all flesh, with whom nothing is impossible. In Exodus 15:26, He introduced Himself as "... the Lord that healeth thee" because He is the Great Physician. In Psalm 24:7-10, He introduced Himself by two titles: The King of glory and the Lord of hosts. In Psalm 23:1, He presents Himself as Jehovah Rohi, the Good Shepherd who provides everything you need. In Genesis 16:13, He is El-Roi, the All-seeing, All-knowing, ever-attentive God. He cares intimately about you and knows you by name (Exodus 33:17). In Jeremiah 32:17-19, He is El Gibhor, the mighty God who rescues. In Exodus 17:15, He is called Jehovah Nissi, your mighty banner of deliverance. In Isaiah 1:24, He is Jehovah Sabaoth, the Lord of hosts; He fights visible and invisible battles on your behalf and gives you victory over the enemy.


According to Ezekiel 48:35, He is Jehovah Shammah, the ever-present One. He is always there when you need Him, and He never slumbers or sleeps (Psalm 121:4). He is the Alpha and Omega of your life (Revelation 21:6); He always has the first and final say (Isaiah 44:6). He alone is God (Psalm 86:10); He is always good (Psalm 73:1), ever faithful (Lamentations 3:23), all-sufficient (Genesis 17:1), and never changing (Malachi 3:6). God is your comforter (John 14:16), deliverer (2 Samuel 22:2), helper (Psalm 54:4), teacher (John 14:26), strength, and song (Exodus 15:2). He is your very present help in trouble (Psalm 46:1). He supplies all your needs according to His riches in glory (Philippians 4:19) and does exceeding, abundantly above all you can ask or think (Ephesians 3:20). He saved you and will keep you until the end (Jude 1:24).


Beloved, you have breath in you; therefore, you have every reason to praise God. 


ACTION POINT:

Make a habit of praising God for His goodness and wonderful works every day.


BIBLE READING IN ONE YEAR:

EZEKIEL 23 - 24

HYMN 17 - PRAISE MY SOUL, THE KING OF HEAVEN

1. Praise my soul the King of Heaven, to his feet thy tributes bring: ransom'd, heal'd restored forgiven who like me his praise should sing?


CHORUS

Praise him! Praise Him! 

Praise Him! Praise Him! 

Praise the everlasting King.


2. Praise Him for His grace and favour to our fathers in distress; praise him still the same ever slow to chide and swift to bless

 Praise Him! Praise Him Glorious in His faithfulness 


3. Father-like He tends nd spares us, well our feeble frame He knows, In His arms he gently bear us, rescues us from all our foes 

Praise Him! Praise Him! 

Wisely as His Mercy flows 


4. Angels help us to adore Him! Ye behold Him face to face: sun and moon bow down before Him: dwellers all in time and space, 

Praise Him! Praise Him! 

Praise us the God of Grace.

Open Heavens Daily Devotional by Pastor E A ADEBOYE

 OPEN HEAVENS DAILY DEVOTIONAL 


DATE: SATURDAY, AUGUST 30, 2025.


TOPIC: GOD CAN USE YOU


MEMORISE

Jesus said unto him, If thou canst believe, all things are possible to him that believeth.” - (Mark 9:23)


READ: Mark 16:17-18 (KJV)


17 And these signs shall follow them that believe; In my name shall they cast out devils; they shall speak with new tongues;


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.


MESSAGE


Paul persecuted Christians and threw some of them in prison (Acts 8:3). He considered himself the chief of sinners (1 Timothy 1:15); however, God transformed him and began to use him to perform special miracles (Acts 19:11-12). If God could use Paul, He can use you too. Acts 5:14-16 tells us that people laid the sick on the streets of Jerusalem so that whenever Peter was passing by, his shadow would fall on them, and they would be healed. This was the same Peter who denied Jesus three times, but God restored him and began to use him mightily. If God could use Peter, He can use you too.


We were having a Holy Ghost Service at Redemption City when a woman got a phone call that her daughter had given birth to a set of twins, and she and the twins had died. The woman responded, "Don't move them yet; please wait for me." She ran to the hospital and asked to see the twins - she was shown their dead bodies. She took a bottle of oil and a handkerchief we had prayed over during the service, dropped some of the oil in the mouth of one of the dead twins, and said, "Come back here; who told you that you could die?" Within a few minutes, the baby coughed and came back to life. She did the same with the second baby, and the same thing happened. After this, the entire hospital was in pandemonium. Around that time, her daughter's body was being wheeled to the mortuary. She told those wheeling the body to stop, dropped some oil in her dead daughter's mouth, put the handkerchief on her, and said, "Who do you think is going to take care of your children? Don't waste my time; come back!" Immediately, her daughter came back to life and sat up. God used her to bring three people back to life in one day. Beloved, God can use you to perform miracles too.


Today's Bible reading says that these signs shall follow them that believe: they shall cast out devils, speak with new tongues, lay hands on the sick, and bring healing to them by using the name of Jesus. If you are a believer in Jesus Christ, you are the perfect candidate for God to use to perform signs and wonders. Be confident of His ability in you, and He will do great and marvellous things through you in the mighty name of Jesus. 


PRAYER POINT

Father, I believe in You, and I surrender myself for Your use.

TOPIC: NO CASE IS HOPELESS


MEMORISE

“Is any thing too hard for the LORD? At the time appointed I will return unto thee, according to the time of life, and Sarah shall have a son.” - (Genesis 18:14)


READ: Jeremiah 32:26-27 (KJV)


26 Then came the word of the Lord unto Jeremiah, saying,


27 Behold, I am the Lord, the God of all flesh: is there any thing too hard for me?


MESSAGE

Some years ago, a woman, who was married to a very wealthy man, was barren. She and her husband sought a solution from everywhere and spent lots of money, but nothing changed. One day, one of her husband's relatives told her to stop wasting her time because some witches had taken her womb, and she could never bear a child. She came to a Holy Ghost Service, and God spoke, "There is someone here; you have just been told that you have no womb. Don't worry because I will give you a set of twins." Not long after that, she became pregnant. At the hospital, a doctor examined her and said, "It looks like there is a child here." She replied, "No, it's not one child; God promised to give me a set of twins." The doctor said, "You should be thanking God that there is even one." She went back for another test about three months later, and the doctor said, "There are two babies here." When the time came for her to deliver, she was flown to one of the best hospitals abroad, and she requested a Caesarean Section. After bringing the babies out, the surgeon searched and could not find a womb inside the woman. When she came around after the anaesthetics she was given wore off, the surgeon came to her and said, "I have performed more than 3,000 operations. This is the first time I am bringing a set of twins out of a woman who has no womb."


And Jesus looking upon them saith, With men it is impossible, but not with God: for with God all things are possible. (Mark 10:27)


Beloved, no matter what anybody has said about the negative situations that might exist in your life, your case is not hopeless. When men say that a case is hopeless, it is because they have not met the God who turns hopeless cases around. Elisabeth's barrenness seemed to be a hopeless case until God sent His angel to speak with her husband, Zechariah (Luke 1:5-25). If the world has called you barren and labelled your situation hopeless, in the name that is above every other name, the Lord will visit you and change your story. If you have been weeping in sorrow, you will now weep for joy, in Jesus' name. Don't give up; put your trust firmly in God. 


KEY POINT

No case is hopeless if you put your trust firmly in God.

BIBLE IN ONE YEAR

Ezekiel 18 - 20


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?
