Open Heavens Daily Devotional by Pastor E.A. Adeboye

 OPEN HEAVENS DAILY DEVOTIONAL


DATE: TUESDAY 8TH DECEMBER 2020.


THEME: GREATNESS IS INFLUENCE.


MEMORISE:


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

Philippians 2:9


READ: Philippians 2:9-11


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


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


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



MESSAGE:


When we talk about greatness, we are talking about influence. You cannot call a man great if he has all the money in the world but nobody likes to obey him. My mother used to pray for me thus: “You will call one person and many people will respond”. She did not need to literarily say that I would be great even though that was what the prayer meant; all she had to say was that I would be a man of influence and the greatness was sure, when the Bible was talking about the great woman of Shunem, it records that when the Prophet asked if she would want a recommendation to the king or the Commander-in-Chief of the armed forces, she replied that she did not need assistance in the regard (2 Kings 4:13). She was a woman of influence.


Since greatness is influence, then I’m sure you know that the one who is greater than the greatest is the Most Influential One. So, how great is our God? According to Philippians 2:9-11, our God has influence on earth and influence underneath the earth. He also has influence over the wind and sea. Mark 4:41 says the wind and the sea obey Him. He has influence over fire; He can turn the fiery furnace to an air-conditional room.


The king's heart is in the hand of the LORD, as the rivers of water: he turneth it whithersoever he will. Proverbs 21:1


The above passage says that God is so influential that He has complete control over the most influential people in the world. There is no are or person over whom our God does not have influence-none!


Now, when God wants to make someone great, what He does is to give the fellow some of His influence. We see that very well in the case of Jesus Christ. After Jesus had paid the price for the redemption of man, God’s reward to Him was influence. This tells us one thing: the way to true greatness is to please God. I can confidently say by God’s grace that I am a great man because I strive t please Him every day of my life. Do you want to be great? Surrender all to Jesus and He will endow you with His glory (John 17:20-22).



KEY POINT:


Seek true greatness.



BIBLE IN ONE YEAR:  Romans 8-10


AUTHOR: PASTOR E. A. ADEBOYE 


HYMN 12: I AM THINE OH LORD.


1. I am Thine, O Lord, I have heard Thy voice,

And it told Thy love to me;

But I long to rise in the arms of faith

And be closer drawn to Thee.


Refrain:

Draw me nearer, nearer blessed Lord,

To the cross where Thou hast died;

Draw me nearer, nearer, nearer blessed Lord,

To Thy precious, bleeding side.


2. Consecrate me now to Thy service, Lord,

By the pow’r of grace divine;

Let my soul look up with a steadfast hope,

And my will be lost in Thine.


3. Oh, the pure delight of a single hour

That before Thy throne I spend,

When I kneel in prayer, and with Thee, my God

I commune as friend with friend!


4. There are depths of love that I cannot know

Till I cross the narrow sea;

There are heights of joy that I may not reach

Till I rest in peace with Thee.

Open Heavens Daily Devotional by Pastor E.A. Adeboye

 OPEN HEAVENS DAILY DEVOTIONAL.


DATE: MONDAY 7TH DECEMBER, 2020.



THEME: DIVINE PROSPERITY.



MEMORISE:


“And it shall come to pass, if thou shalt hearken diligently unto the voice of the LORD thy God, to observe and to do all his commandments which I command thee this day, that the LORD thy God will set thee on high above all nations of the earth.”


Deuteronomy 28:1


READ: Genesis 1:26-30 (KJV)


26. And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness; and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth.


27. So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them.


28. And God blessed them, and God said unto them, Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth, and subdue it; and have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over every living thing that moveth upon the earth.


29. And God said, Behold, I have given you every herb bearing seed, which is upon the face of all the earth, and every tree, in the which is the fruit of a tree yielding seed; to you it shall be for meat.


30. And to every beast of the earth, and to every fowl of the air, and to every thing that creepeth upon the earth, wherein there is life, I have given every green herb for meat; and it was so.



MESSAGE:


When God created the earth, He looked at it and saw that it was very good (Genesis 1:31).

Afterwards, He gave mankind dominion over all the resources.

As a result, prosperity became the inheritance of every man.

Unfortunately, man lost these benefits after falling into sin. Thankfully, God raised a second Adam to reconcile man to Himself.

Beloved, as soon as you are reconciled to God by connecting to the second Adam – Jesus Christ, whatever God has will become yours.


What does God have? He owns the cattle upon a thousand hills (Psalms 50:10), so you should not lack food. Among other things, gold and silver also belong to Him (Haggai 2:8).

Being God’s child means you have a mansion in the most beautiful estate ever, where the ground is paved with gold. Isn’t that wonderful?

“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

If we would enjoy divine prosperity, we must not forget God because it is only through His power we can get wealth. This means if someone does not have enough power to get wealth, most likely, such a person has forgotten God.


Have you forgotten God? How is your relationship with Him? When last did you praise and worship Him alone without making requests? When last did you study your Bible all by yourself?

Those who have not forgotten God obey His every word, so He gives them everything they ask for.

Job 36:11 says:

“If they obey and serve him, they shall spend their days in prosperity, and their years in pleasures.” Seek God first. Prosperity will follow (Matthew 6:33).

God is a rewarder of those who diligently seek Him (Hebrews 11:6).


REFLECTION:


If you want to prosper, stay close to God.


AUTHOR: PASTOR E. A ADEBOYE.


BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: Romans 4-7


HYMN 28: THERE SHALL BE SHOWERS OF BLESSING.


1. There shall be showers of blessing:

This is the promise of love;

There shall be season refreshing,

Sent from the Saviour above.


CHORUS:


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, Oh Lord!

Grant to us now a refreshing;

Come and now honour Thy Word.


4. There shall be showers of blessing;

Oh, 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: SUNDAY 6TH DECEMBER 2020.


THEME: THE NAME OF JESUS.


MEMORISE:


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

Philippians 2:9


READ:  Philippians 2:9-11


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


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


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




MESSAGE:


Oh, I love the name of Jesus. it is the most powerful name in all the universe. I recall the story of a young man called Samuel who gave his life to Jesus Christ while his mother was the leader of idol worshipers in their village. Samuel was filled with a zeal to win his mother and village for Christ so he decided to start off by burning all the idols and charms in their house. His mother was furious at his actions so she invited the members of her secret society to kill her son as she would not be able to kill him by herself.


The night they decided to attack Samuel, the mother ensured the boy was alone in the house. Around midnight, Samuel knelt to pray after having shut all windows and doors. It was then a huge dog, with charms tied all over its body came in through the locked door and headed straight for him. There was no time to pray; however, there was enough time to shout “JESUS”. something like a thunderbolt came into the room through the walls and struck the dog dead on the spot.


Philippians 2:10 says:

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


The phrase “things in heaven, on earth and underneath the earth“ already covers everything possible. This means that nothing can withstand or resist the name of Jesus. there is no problem, demon or situation that will not bow once they hear the name of Jesus. This is why our mouth must always call on the name of Jesus. we must note however, that the name of Jesus is only potent in the mouth of His children. It says in Isaiah 59:1-2:

“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.”


No matter how loud you shout the name of Jesus, if you are a sinner, He will not even hear, not to talk of answering. If you want the name to work for you, you must accept Him into your life as your Lord and Savior, then stay away from sin.



REFLECTION:


If you call the name of Jesus now, would He answer? If the answer is no, then make amend immediately.


BIBLE IN ONE YEAR:  Acts 20:1-3

      Romans 1-3


AUTHOR: PASTOR E. A. ADEBOYE 


HYMN 11: I AM SO GLAD THAT OUR FATHER IN HEAVEN.


1.  I am so glad that our Father in Heav’n

Tells of His love in the Book He has giv’n;

Wonderful things in the Bible I see,

This is the dearest, that Jesus loves me.


Refrain:

I am so glad that Jesus loves me,

Jesus loves me, Jesus loves me;

I am so glad that Jesus loves me,

Jesus loves even me.


2.  If I forget Him and wander away,

Still He doth love me wherever I stray;

Back to His dear loving arms would I flee,

When I remember that Jesus loves me.


3.  Oh, if there’s only one song I can sing,

When in His beauty I see the great King,

This shall my song through eternity be,

“Oh, what a wonder that Jesus loves me!”


4.  Jesus loves me, and I know I love Him;

Love brought Him down my poor soul to redeem;

Yes, it was love made Him die on the tree;

Oh, I am certain that Jesus loves me!


5.  If one should ask of me, how can I tell?

Glory to Jesus, I know very well!

God’s Holy Spirit with mine doth agree,

Constantly witnessing Jesus loves me.


6.  In this assurance I find sweetest rest,

Trusting in Jesus, I know I am blest;

Satan, dismayed, from my soul now doth flee,

When I just tell him that Jesus loves me.
