DATE: WEDNESDAY 23RD DECEMBER, 2020.

THEME: YOUR CASE IS DIFFERENT.

MEMORIZE:

A thousand shall fall at thy side, and ten thousand at thy right hand; but it shall not come nigh thee.

Psalms 91:7

BIBLE READING:

PSALMS 91:1-16

1. He that dwelleth in the secret place of the most High shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty.

2. I will say of the LORD, He is my refuge and my fortress; my God; in him will I trust.

3. Surely he shall deliver thee from the snare of the fowler, and from the noisome pestilence.

4. He shall cover thee with his feathers, and under his wings shalt thou trust; his truth shall be thy shield and buckler.

5. Thou shalt not be afraid for the terror by night; nor for the arrow that flieth by day;

6. Nor for the pestilence that walketh in darkness; nor for the destruction that wasteth at noonday.

7. A thousand shall fall at thy side, and ten thousand at thy right hand; but it shall not come nigh thee.

8. Only with thine eyes shalt thou behold and see the reward of the wicked.

9. Because thou hast made the LORD, which is my refuge, even the most High, thy habitation;

10. There shall no evil befall thee, neither shall any plague come nigh thy dwelling.

11. For he shall give his angels charge over thee, to keep thee in all thy ways.

12. They shall bear thee up in their hands, lest thou dash thy foot against a stone.

13. Thou shalt tread upon the lion and adder; the young lion and the dragon shalt thou trample under feet.

14. Because he hath set his love upon me, therefore will I deliver him; I will set him on high, because he hath known my name.

15. He shall call upon me, and I will answer him; I will be with him in trouble; I will deliver him, and honour him.

16. With long life will I satisfy him, and shew him my salvation.

MESSAGE:

When the RCCG was to be established in Israel, a diplomat there warned “They will never register any Pentecostal church. Not only is the RCCG Pentecostal, it is a Nigerian church, so just forget it.”

I insisted “No sir, we will not forget it. Just submit our application and then let’s leave the rest to God.”

For courtesy’s sake, he took the letter and submitted it. To God’s glory, a few weeks later, we got our proof of registration.

Many years later, we needed permission from the government for a project. We were told we could not be permitted since we were a Pentecostal Church, and not registered.

They were surprised when we went back with our proof of registration. These only happened because our case is different.

In 1974, a little while after I had submitted my PhD thesis at the University of Lagos, I went on a Crusade at Ilesha and Ifewara while waiting to be called for the compulsory oral exam.

While I was there, the Head of my Department gave my thesis to the External Examiner.

Ordinarily, he should have posted it, but he took it in person, insisting on waiting until the Examiner concluded his assessment.

As a result, the Examiner was compelled to read my thesis promptly. When he was done, my HOD asked “When is the date for the exam?” to which he replied “I have no questions; give him his Ph.D.”

In the history of the world, I may be the only one with a Ph.D. who did not do an oral exam. Only because my case is different.

From today, doors will open everywhere you turn.

While others may be cast down, you shall experience a lifting. Nothing will be impossible for you.

From today, anywhere you go, anything you touch or intend to do shall be treated as different in a positive way by the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ.

Your case is different because the Lord has chosen you. (1 Peter 2:9) says:

“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 marvelous light”

PRAYER POINT

Father, make me Your special child so that in everything I do, my case will be different positively, in the mighty name of Jesus.

2 TIMOTHY 2:1-26,

2 TIMOTHY 3:1-17,

2 TIMOTHY 4:1-22

HYMN 12:/I AM THINE O 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.

CHORUS:

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: TUESDAY 22ND DECEMBER 2020.

 

THEME: DANGERS OF INGRATITUDE.

 

MEMORISE:

 

Because that, when they knew God, they glorified him not as God, neither were thankful; but became vain in their imaginations, and their foolish heart was darkened.                                       Romans 1:21

 

 

READ:  Judge 15:14-19

 

14 And when he came unto Lehi, the Philistines shouted against him: and the Spirit of the Lord came mightily upon him, and the cords that were upon his arms became as flax that was burnt with fire, and his bands loosed from off his hands.

 

15 And he found a new jawbone of an ass, and put forth his hand, and took it, and slew a thousand men therewith.

 

16 And Samson said, With the jawbone of an ass, heaps upon heaps, with the jaw of an ass have I slain a thousand men.

 

17 And it came to pass, when he had made an end of speaking, that he cast away the jawbone out of his hand, and called that place Ramathlehi.

 

18 And he was sore athirst, and called on the Lord, and said, Thou hast given this great deliverance into the hand of thy servant: and now shall I die for thirst, and fall into the hand of the uncircumcised?

 

19 But God clave an hollow place that was in the jaw, and there came water thereout; and when he had drunk, his spirit came again, and he revived: wherefore he called the name thereof Enhakkore, which is in Lehi unto this day.

 

 

MESSAGE:

 

 

One day, I asked God why He punished king Saul so much while David who committed more sins was called the man after His heart. He responded by telling me to read 2 Samuel 6:14:

 

“And David danced before the Lord with all his might……”

 

Then He asked me to look for a place where Saul danced for Him. I searched and couldn’t find. I further decided to check where he said thank you to God somehow, but I didn’t find any. Not even when God raised him to be king. It was clear then that Saul’s downfall was majorly due to ingratitude.

 

Another person who failed due to ingratitude is Samson. All the time that the Bible records that the Spirit of the Lord came upon him and he did great exploits, not once did he say, “Thank you Lord”. In fact, probably the most glaring of such incidents was in Judges 15:17-18:

“And it came to pass, when he had made an end of speaking, that he cast away the jawbone out of his hand, and called that place Ramathlehi. And he was sore athirst, and called on the Lord, and said, Thou hast given this great deliverance into the hand of thy servant: and now shall I die for thirst, and fall into the hand of the uncircumcised?”

 

Just after exploits so great that even he acknowledged they were from God, instead of giving thanks, all he did was complain. Ingratitude is a pointer to pride. Proverbs 16:18 saya that pride goes before a fall. Ungrateful people are proud and are heading for a fall. When you see a person who is always grateful, you see humility in the fellow and since God gives grace to the humble (1 Peter 5:5), the grace of God will always take the person higher. Whatever chance you get, always remain grateful to God. Be grateful for even the little things that others take for granted; be grateful that you can sleep and wake the next day, that you can walk, that you can talk, that you can wear your clothes by yourself, that you can eat, that you can use the bathroom, that you can still, have a sound mind. In everything and for everything, give thanks for this is the will of God (1 Thessalonians 5:18).

 

 

 

PRAYER POINT:

 

Father, I am grateful for all that You are doing for me; please Lord, help me never to be ungrateful.

 

 

 

BIBLE IN ONE YEAR:  Hebrews 11-13

 

 

 

AUTHOR: PASTOR E. A. ADEBOYE 

 

 

HYMN 21: NOW THANK WE ALL OUR GOD.

 

1.       Now thank we all our God, with heart and hands and voices,

Who wondrous things has done, in Whom this world rejoices;

Who from our mothers’ arms has blessed us on our way

With countless gifts of love, and still is ours today.

 

2.       Oh, may this bounteous God through all our life be near us,

With ever joyful hearts and blessed peace to cheer us;

And keep us in His grace, and guide us when perplexed;

And guard us through all ills in this world, till the next!

 

3.       All praise and thanks to God the Father now be given,

The Son, and Him Who reigns with Them in highest Heaven—

The one eternal God, Whom earth and Heav’n adore;

For thus it was, is now, and shall be evermore.

Open Heavens Daily Devotional by Pastor E.A. Adeboye

 OPEN HEAVENS DAILY DEVOTIONAL

 

DATE: MONDAY 21ST DECEMBER 2020.

 

THEME: TRUE WORSHIP.

 

MEMORISE:

 

Wherefore the Lord said, Forasmuch as this people draw near me with their mouth, and with their lips do honour me, but have removed their heart far from me, and their fear toward me is taught by the precept of men:                                                                                                                                                              

Isaiah 29:13

 

 

 

READ:  1 Chronicles 16:23-31

 

23 Sing unto the Lord, all the earth; shew forth from day to day his salvation.

 

24 Declare his glory among the heathen; his marvellous works among all nations.

 

25 For great is the Lord, and greatly to be praised: he also is to be feared above all gods.

 

26 For all the gods of the people are idols: but the Lord made the heavens.

 

27 Glory and honour are in his presence; strength and gladness are in his place.

 

28 Give unto the Lord, ye kindreds of the people, give unto the Lord glory and strength.

 

29 Give unto the Lord the glory due unto his name: bring an offering, and come before him: worship the Lord in the beauty of holiness.

 

30 Fear before him, all the earth: the world also shall be stable, that it be not moved.

 

31 Let the heavens be glad, and let the earth rejoice: and let men say among the nations, The Lord reigneth.

 

 

MESSAGE:

 

Worship- true worship is in the absolute submission of the heart to the One being worshipped and adored. You can pretend to be in awe of any human being and they would be deceived, but God searches the intentions of our heart, and that is why He knows those who truly worship Him. John 4:24 says:

            “God is a Spirit: and they that worship him must worship him in spirit and in truth.”

 

Search your heart: are you a true worshipper? If you claim to be a worshipper and you still commit sin, you need to check your claim again. A true worshipper of God does not take with levity anything that concerns Him. David is a very good example of a true worshipper. He wrote many psalms praising God and talking about how he revered God showed that he truly esteemed Him greatly. He had a burden to build a temple for God and even though He told him not to, David didn’t just fold his hands; he provided all that would be needed to build it. That is clearly not eye service. David was a man after God’s own heart, because he practiced heartfelt worship.

 

If you’re not as committed to your tasks in Church when your Pastor is not around as you are when he is, you are not a true worshipper. If you worship God because you are expecting something in return, you are not amongst the true worshippers. God rejects heartless worship (Amos 5:21-24). Two people can come with similar offerings to Him and He will reject one and accept the other just like the case of Cain and Abel (Genesis 4:15).

 

Are you a true worshipper?

 

 

KEY POINT:

 

Worship is a thing of the heart; actions merely express it.

 

 

 

BIBLE IN ONE YEAR:  Hebrews 7-10

 

 

AUTHOR: PASTOR E. A. ADEBOYE 

 

 

HYMN 16: LET US WITH A GLADSOME MIND.

 

 

1 Let us, with a gladsome mind,

praise the Lord for he is kind:

for his mercies shall endure,

ever faithful, ever sure.

2 Let us sound his name abroad,

for of gods he is the God:

for his mercies shall endure,

ever faithful, ever sure.

3 He with all-commanding might

filled the new-made world with light:

for his mercies shall endure,

ever faithful, ever sure.

4 All things living he doth feed;

his full hand supplies their need:

for his mercies shall endure,

ever faithful, ever sure.

5 Let us then, with glad-some mind,

praise the Lord for he is kind:

for his mercies shall endure,

ever faithful, ever sure.
