Prayer Points on Today’s Open Heavens: (Wednesday, May 27, 2020) -
Command Your Household
Special Note:
These prayer points are not written by Pastor E. A. Adeboye, but by one of his numerous disciples, of Christ, who was inspired and mandated by the Holy Spirit, about 5 years ago, (effective January 1st, 2015), to start writing these prayer points, based on the Open Heavens Daily Devotional, authored by Pastor E. A. Adeboye.
Some of the prayer points are deep spiritually and may not be understood by carnal minds.
If you want to be blessed from these prayer points, you must first, surrender Your life, to the Lord Jesus Christ, Himself, by saying this prayer:
“Lord Jesus, I come to You with a deeply repentant heart, please, forgive me all my sins. I surrender my life to you, today, and, I accept You, as my personal Lord and Saviour. Please, come into my life and save my soul from eternal destruction in hell fire. In Jesus' name, I pray.”
Prayer Points:
1.Thank You, Father, for the gift of children to the body of Christ, and for all Your heritages, under my care.
2.Father, in anyway I have fallen short of your glory, please, have mercy and forgive me, in Jesus' name.
3.Father, help me to establish a strong family altar, where Your heritages, the little soldiers of Christ are adequately prepared for the battle of life, and trained in Your ways, in Jesus' name.
4.Father, help me to be a doer of Your words, not hearer, only; and make me a good and perfect example, worthy of emulation by my children, in Jesus' name.
5.Father, as a parent, let me not be an accomplice with the devil to destroy my children; let me not fail in my duties toward my children, in Jesus' name.
6.Father, I surrender the hearts and souls of my children to You, please take over their lives and train them in Your ways; don't let them grow up to be wayward children, in Jesus' name.
7.Father, give me the grace to train my children to live a godly life, so that I can have rest, in my old age, in Jesus' name.
8.Father, cause my children to walk in Your ways, all the days of their lives, in Jesus' name.
9.Father, as many who are looking up to You, for the fruits of the womb, in the body of Christ, please, answer them today, in Jesus' name.
10.Father, when I shall stand before You, to give account of my stewardship over my children, please, let me not be found wanting, in Jesus' name.
11.Father, bless your son, Pastor E.A.Adeboye, let him fulfil his destiny and accomplish Your complete agenda and purpose, for his life, in Jesus' name.
12.Father, bless Your son, that You have been using to prepare these prayer points, beyond measures, and all those who have been rebroadcasting them, in Jesus' name.

14.Your Personal petitions.
( Philippians 4:6)

Open Heavens Devotional by Pastor E.A. Adeboye
OPEN HEAVENS DAILY DEVOTIONAL.
DATE: WEDNESDAY 27TH MAY, 2020.
THEME: COMMAND YOUR HOUSEHOLD.
MEMORIZE:
And these words, which I command thee this day, shall be in thine heart: And thou shall teach them diligently unto thy children, and shalt talk of them when thou sittest in thine house, and when thou walkest by the way, and when thou liest down, and when thou risest up.
Deuteronomy 6:6 -7
BIBLE READING:
GENESIS 18:19
19. For I know him, that he will command his children and his household after him, and they shall keep the way of the Lord, to do justice and judgment; that the Lord may bring upon Abraham that which he hath spoken of him.
MESSAGE:
It is most surprising that the children of fervent Christians of the outgoing generation appear to be missing in action today.
Typically, if a Christian couple had three children for example, the next generation should therefore have at least three people standing for God, but this is clearly not so.
Now we have worldly musicians whose parents are leaders in the Church. The devil may be working hard to make the world a corrupt place, but a lot of Christian parents seem to be helping him get the job done faster.
How can Christian parents dress their children in revealing clothes?, Everything you introduce to your children now will be normal to them as they grow.
If you are already dressing your daughter in revealing clothes now that she is little, she would most likely wear even more provocative ones when she is a teenager.
lf you are a child of God, you must make sure that your children emulate you in the things you do, the way you talk and even the things you love.
You instill this in them by showing them what is right and what is wrong as they grow up.
Some parents go to church and leave their children at home, claiming that they don’t want to force them to serve God; they want them to grow up to love God by themselves.
I pity them because they are just giving the devil a free hand with their children.
Do you let the child decide if he wants to go to school or not? God said about Abraham in Genesis 18:19
“For I know him, that he will command his children and his household after him, and they shall keep the way of the LORD…“
Can God say the same thing about you? Before you evangelise to the unbelievers outside, are you sure that there is no
unbeliever in your home?
Watch what they wear, what they say, who their friends are. Teach them to read their Bible and to pray.
When you teach your children to live godly lives, you will have rest in your old age because the Holy Spirit in them will not allow them to misbehave.
If you have a child who is already going wayward, I pray that he/she would encounter Christ and change for the better in the mighty name of Jesus.
ACTION POINT:
Every day, as you teach them, pray for your children that they will walk in the ways of the Most High God all their lives.

Open Heavens Devotional by Pastor E.A Adeboye
OPEN HEAVENS DAILY DEVOTIONAL
DATE: TUESDAY 26TH MAY 2020.
THEME: CHOOSE HAPPINESS.
MEMORISE:
If ye know these things, happy are ye if ye do them. John 13:17
READ: John 13:13-17
13 Ye call me Master and Lord: and ye say well; for so I am.
14 If I then, your Lord and Master, have washed your feet; ye also ought to wash one another's feet.
15 For I have given you an example, that ye should do as I have done to you.
16 Verily, verily, I say unto you, The servant is not greater than his lord; neither he that is sent greater than he that sent him.
17 If ye know these things, happy are ye if ye do them.
MESSAGE
Today’s memory verse makes us know clearly that we can influence our happiness. We can also deduce that knowledge is a requirement for happiness and this knowledge is from God.
“ If any of you lack wisdom, let him ask of God, that giveth to all men liberally, and upbraideth not; and it shall be given him….. Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, and cometh down from the Father of lights, with whom is no variableness, neither shadow of turning.” James 1:5,17
Getting knowledge too is a choice. There are people who have refused education despite so much persuasion. Most of such people end up as failures and become unhappy for the rest of their lives. It was however their choice. Likewise, some people deliberately follow other gods and this too could be a source of sorrow (Psalm 16:4). As temporal as wealth is when compared with spiritual and eternal blessings, lack of it may cause unhappiness. Even the Bible says “The rich ruleth over the poor, and the borrower is servant to the lender.” (Proverbs 22:7).
How can you become happy and remain so? Beloved, it is not enough to have knowledge, we must learn to do (John 13:17).
In today’s Bible reading, Jesus taught His disciples a secret of happiness- service to God and humanity. When you serve God and make Him the Lord over all your affairs, you will be happy (Psalm 144:15).
We would also be happy if you know how to get out of poverty in a Godly manner. Act according to Malachi 3:10 which commands us to pay our tithes so the widows of heavenly blessings can be open upon the works of your hands.
Beloved, I encourage you to choose happiness today. Jesus Christ, the Son of the living God and the Savior of the world is the only way to true happiness and eternal life (John 3:16-18).
PRAYER POINT:
Father, I choose to be happy today; I come to You through Your Son, Jesus. please, give me joy eternal.
BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: 1 Chronicles 26-29
Psalm 127.
AUTHOR: PASTOR E. A. ADEBOYE
HYMN 3: BE GLAD IN THE LORD AND REJOICE.
1. Be glad in the Lord, and rejoice,
All ye that are upright in heart;
And ye that have made Him your choice,
Bid sadness and sorrow depart.
o Refrain:
Rejoice, rejoice,
Be glad in the Lord and rejoice;
Rejoice, rejoice,
Be glad in the Lord and rejoice.
2. Be joyful, for He is the Lord
On earth and in Heaven supreme;
He fashions and rules by His word—
The “Mighty” and “Strong” to redeem.
3. What though in the conflict for right
Your enemies almost prevail?
God’s armies, just hid from your sight,
Are more than the foes which assail.
4. Though darkness surround you by day,
Your sky by the night be o’ercast,
Let nothing your spirit dismay,
But trust till the danger is past.
5. Be glad in the Lord, and rejoice,
His praises proclaiming in song;
Let gratefulness give all a voice,
The loud hallelujahs prolong!

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 easily beset us, and let us run with patient the race that is set before us. Hebrews 12:1
READ: 1st John 3:4-10 (KJV)
4 Whosoever committeth sin transgresseth also the law: for sin is the transgression of the law.
5 And ye know that he was manifested to take away our sins; and in him is no sin.
6 Whosoever abideth in him sinneth not: whosoever sinneth hath not seen him, neither known him.
7 Little children, let no man deceive you: he that doeth righteousness is righteous, even as he is righteous.
8 He that committeth sin is of the devil; for the devil sinneth from the beginning. For this purpose the Son of God was manifested, that he might destroy the works of the devil.
9 Whosoever is born of God doth not commit sin; for his seed remaineth in him: and he cannot sin, because he is born of God.
10 In this the children of God are manifest, and the children of the devil: whosoever doeth not righteousness is not of God, neither he that loveth not his brother.
MESSAGE:
God wants His children to be aware of the several roadblocks on their journey to the promised land. Chief among these is the devil. He puts obstacles in our path so we can reject the ways of the Lord (1st Peter 5:7-9). He uses sin as a weapon of destruction knowing fully well that no unclean thing shall enter into the Kingdom of God (Revelation 21:27).
Seeing these obvious threats to the success of our pilgrimage, God always provides an escapes route for us (1st Corinthians 10:13)
In today’s Bible reading, John describes sin as a transgression of the law.
It is definitely not a Christian virtue. As a matter of fact, sinners belong to the devil because he has been sinning from the beginning (1st John 3:8).
The whole duty of Satan is to lure people into disobedience against God, thus truncating their journey to eternal life. He told Adam and Eve that eating the forbidding fruit would not affect their relationship with God.
Eventually, they were sent from the blissful garden of Eden (Genesis 3).
Today, he has introduced the concept of ‘non-essentials’ to the Christian faith.
For instance, the devil convinces people that a sip of alcohol once in a while does not matter; and that premarital sex is not bad as long as the couple would eventually marry each other, without regard for Hebrews 13:4! What about lies? Many ‘Christians’ now lie with impunity and it is termed ‘white’ lies.
These are very little foxes that destroy the vine of faith. This is a timely warning for Christian pilgrims to guard against seemingly insignificant habits that can exclude one from the hope of eternal life.
May the Lord grant us the grace to run with patience and race that is set before us.
ACTION POINT:
Examine your life for socially acceptable behaviours that are not Christ-like. They could deny you of eternal life ultimately. Do away with them all immediately.

BIBLE IN ONE YEAR:
Psalm 131, 138-139, 143-145,
HYMN 9: HOLD THE FORT
1. Ho, my comrades, see the signal
Waving in the sky!
Reinforcements now appearing
Victory is nigh.
CHORUS
“Hold the fort, for I am coming,”
Jesus signals still;
Wave the answer back to Heaven,
“By Thy grace we will.
2. See the mighty host advancing
Satan leading on;
Mighty ones around us falling
Courage almost gone!
3. See the glorious banner waving!
Hear the trumpet blow!
In our Leader’s Name we triumph
Over every foe.
4. Fierce and long the battle rages
But our help is near;
Onward comes our great Commander
Cheer, my comrades, cheer!
