Open Heavens Daily Devotional by Pastor E.A. Adeboye

 OPEN HEAVENS DAILY DEVOTIONAL

 

DATE: THURSDAY 31ST DECEMBER 2020.

 

THEME: A NEW YEAR COMETH.

 

MEMORISE:

 

 

 I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me.                                                

Philippians 4:13

 

 

 

READ:  Psalm 90:12

 

 

So teach us to number our days, that we may apply our hearts unto wisdom.

 

 

 

MESSAGE:

 

 

We have come to the end of another year. a new year begins tomorrow. At the end of a season, it is important that you sit and review the season.

 

Review all that happened or didn’t in every aspect of your life in 2020. Did you experience any progress in your career? Did you draw closer to God this year? did your relationship with loved ones get better this year? you know the important areas of your life; do a review.

 

 

After your review, you will see areas where you need to improve. The opportunity to improve starts now; grab it with faith in God for a better year. list the things you want to achieve in the new year and put things in place to ensure you achieve them.

 

If for example, you want to live a better spiritual life, but there is a partner you keep committing fornication or adultery with, then it is time to delete that fellow’s number and cut all ties with him/her. Hebrews 12:1 says:

“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 so easily beset us, and let us run with patience the race that is set before us,”

 

 

Let the word of God guide you in all matters. Psalm 37:5 tells us to:

 

            “Commit thy way unto the Lord; trust also in him; and he shall bring it to pass.”

 

Beloved, your decisions and actions now will determine how year 2021 will be for you. If there are things you want to stop in your life, you had better not carry them in 2021 and if there are things you want start in your life, bring them in now. You have a chance to write your own history in 2021; don’t miss it.

 

 

May the Almighty God bless you tremendously in the coming year in the mighty name of Jesus. Amen.

 

 

 

PRAYER POINT:

 

Declare the things that you want in the year 2021. It will be a greater year for you than all those that had come before it, in the mighty name of Jesus.

 

 

 

BIBLE IN ONE YEAR:  Revelation 21-22

 

 

 

AUTHOR: PASTOR E. A. ADEBOYE 

 

 

 

HYMN 22: O LORD MY GOD!

 

 

1.       O Lord my God, When I in awesome wonder,

Consider all the worlds Thy Hands have made;

I see the stars, I hear the rolling thunder,

Thy power throughout the universe displayed.

 

Refrain:

Then sings my soul, My Savior God, to Thee,

How great Thou art, How great Thou art.

Then sings my soul, My Savior God, to Thee,

How great Thou art, How great Thou art!

 

2.       When through the woods, and forest glades I wander,

And hear the birds sing sweetly in the trees.

When I look down, from lofty mountain grandeur

And see the brook, and feel the gentle breeze.

 

3.       Then sings my soul, My Savior God, to Thee,

How great Thou art, How great Thou art.

Then sings my soul, My Savior God, to Thee,

How great Thou art, How great Thou art!

 

4.       And when I think, that God, His Son not sparing;

Sent Him to die, I scarce can take it in;

That on the Cross, my burden gladly bearing,

He bled and died to take away my sin.

 

5.       Then sings my soul, My Savior God, to Thee,

How great Thou art, How great Thou art.

Then sings my soul, My Savior God, to Thee,

How great Thou art, How great Thou art!

 

6.       When Christ shall come, with shout of acclamation,

And take me home, what joy shall fill my heart.

Then I shall bow, in humble adoration,

And then proclaim: "My God, how great Thou art!"

 

7.       Then sings my soul, My Savior God, to Thee,

How great Thou art, How great Thou art.

Then sings my soul, My Savior God, to Thee,

How great Thou art, How great Thou art!

Open Heavens Daily Devotional by Pastor E.A. Adeboye

 OPEN HEAVENS DAILY DEVOTIONAL

 

DATE: WEDNESDAY 30TH DECEMBER 2020.

 

THEME: OVERCOME YOUR BODY.

 

MEMORISE:

 

 

 But I keep under my body, and bring it into subjection: lest that by any means, when I have preached to others, I myself should be a castaway.                                                                1 Corinthians 9:27

 

 

 

READ:  1 Corinthians 9:24-27

 

24 Know ye not that they which run in a race run all, but one receiveth the prize? So run, that ye may obtain.

 

25 And every man that striveth for the mastery is temperate in all things. Now they do it to obtain a corruptible crown; but we an incorruptible.

 

26 I therefore so run, not as uncertainly; so fight I, not as one that beateth the air:

 

27 But I keep under my body, and bring it into subjection: lest that by any means, when I have preached to others, I myself should be a castaway.

 

 

 

MESSAGE:

 

 

Anyone that is going to excel according to our Bible reading for today, must be self-disciplined. Such a person must keep his/her body under. Do not be deceived - greatness is readily available. There is plenty of room at the top; the question is: are you willing to do the work that will qualify you to get there?

Anyone who wants to be prominent, to mount with wings like an eagle cannot be lazy. Isaiah 40:31 says it is they that wait upon the Lord whose strength will be renewed; they are the ones who will mount with wings as eagles. Many people are too lazy to pray and they want miracles. When I pray at night, I don’t stay in one place because I know that after a busy day, I would sleep off. If I am in a place where I cannot go out in the night, I walk up and down the stairs so that I won’t sleep while praying. Many people can’t even fast for three days, yet to cast out demons. Jesus said:

 

“Howbeit this kind goeth not out but by prayer and fasting.”                       Matthew 17:21

 

 

When I got born again, we resumed in church on Sunday morning before the break of day and were there until the evening. These days, if the service goes on beyond 11am, people would already be dreaming of meals they want to eat after the service. How can the Church take its rightful place if everyone is this lazy?

 

It takes discipline to excel; even the devil knows it, that is why he keeps bringing several distractions our way and sadly, many of us allow him. If you cannot stay for one hour without peering into your phone, you need to check to be sure that you are not already a victim of the devil. If a provocatively dressed lady cannot walk past without you turning to get another angle, that is the devil getting you there. If you cannot do without having sex with your spouse in a week, then how can you take out time to consecrate yourself to God? You need self-discipline, if not, you could become an easy target for the enemy.

 

 

 

 

REFLECTION:

 

Comparing how often you eat and sleep with how often you pray, how disciplined would you say you are?

 

 

 

BIBLE IN ONE YEAR:  Revelation 19-20

 

 

 

AUTHOR: PASTOR E. A. ADEBOYE 

 

 

 

HYMN 23: ONWARD, CHRISTIAN SOLDIER!

 

 

1.              Onward, Christian soldiers!

Marching as to war,

With the cross of Jesus

Going on before.

Christ, the royal Master,

Leads against the foe;

Forward into battle,

See his banners go!

 

Refrain:

Onward, Christian soldiers!

Marching as to war,

With the cross of Jesus

Going on before.

 

 

2.              At the sign of triumph

Satan’s host doth flee;

On, then, Christian soldiers,

On to victory.

Hell’s foundations quiver

At the shout of praise;

Brothers, lift your voices,

Loud your anthems raise.

 

 

3.              Like a mighty army

Moves the Church of God;

Brothers, we are treading

Where the Saints have trod.

We are not divided;

All one body we:

One in hope and doctrine,

One in charity.

 

 

4.              Onward, then, ye people;

Join our happy throng.

Blend with ours your voices

In the triumph song:

Glory, laud, and honor

Unto Christ, the King.

This through countless ages

Men and angels sing.

Open Heavens Daily Devotional by Pastor E.A. Adeboye

 OPEN HEAVENS DAILY DEVOTIONAL

 

DATE: TUESDAY 29TH DECEMBER 2020.

 

THEME: SEEK GOD’S HELP.

 

MEMORISE:

 

 

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

Psalm 46:1

 

 

 

READ:  Psalm 121:1-8

 

1I will lift up mine eyes unto the hills, from whence cometh my help.

 

2 My help cometh from the Lord, which made heaven and earth.

 

3 He will not suffer thy foot to be moved: he that keepeth thee will not slumber.

 

4 Behold, he that keepeth Israel shall neither slumber nor sleep.

 

5 The Lord is thy keeper: the Lord is thy shade upon thy right hand.

 

6 The sun shall not smite thee by day, nor the moon by night.

 

7 The Lord shall preserve thee from all evil: he shall preserve thy soul.

 

8 The Lord shall preserve thy going out and thy coming in from this time forth, and even for evermore.

 

MESSAGE:

 

 

Often I see a lot of people going through life on their own. They try to do everything by their knowledge and power. Though they  achieve some level of success and celebrate it, I pity them because they have no idea how much higher they could have gone if only they had consulted God for help. When you try to do it all by yourself, you age faster and can easily get frustrated, but when you let God help you, when you relax and let Him carry you on His wings, your burden is transferred to Him. I used to try to do things by my abilities before. I wanted the church to grow, so I was doing everything in my power to bring that to pass. One day however, I noticed a strand of grey hair on my head at the age of forty. I asked God why I should be having grey hair at that young age and He said, “Aren’t you the one who wants to do everything yourself?” From that day, I surrendered all to God. After a while, the grey hair disappeared and the church grew faster than I had expected, without any stress on me.

 

“will lift up mine eyes unto the hills, from whence cometh my help. My help cometh from the Lord, which made heaven and earth.”            Psalm 121:1-2

 

Our eyes must always be lifted to God for help- not people, not the government, not the church or anyone else; but God alone. Yes, God can raise people to help us like He did for Adam. Adam was in need of help in the garden od Eden; God recognized this and gave him Eve.

 

 

“And the Lord God said, It is not good that the man should be alone; I will make him an help meet for him.”                                                                                         Genesis 2:18

 

If however, you are not in God’s kingdom, how would you expect His help when He has said a kingdom divided against itself shall be desolate? (Matthew 12:25)

 

 

When you surrender all to Him and seek His face, He will raise helpers for you. Helpers you never knew existed will come your way today in the mighty name of Jesus.

 

 

 

 

PRAYER POINT:

 

Lord, I look up to You alone; please send help to solve all my problems, in the mighty name of Jesus.

 

 

 

BIBLE IN ONE YEAR:  Revelation 12-18

 

 

 

AUTHOR: PASTOR E. A. ADEBOYE 

 

 

 

HYMN 18: MY FAITH LOOKS UP TO THEE.

 

1.       My faith looks up to Thee,

Thou Lamb of Calvary,

Savior divine!

Now hear me while I pray,

Take all my guilt away,

Oh, let me from this day

Be wholly Thine!

 

2.       May Thy rich grace impart

Strength to my fainting heart,

My zeal inspire!

As Thou hast died for me,

Oh, may my love to Thee

Pure, warm, and changeless be,

A living fire!

 

3.       While life’s dark maze I tread,

And griefs around me spread,

Be Thou my guide;

Bid darkness turn to day,

Wipe sorrow’s tears away,

Nor let me ever stray

From Thee aside.

 

4.       When ends life’s transient dream,

When death’s cold, sullen stream

Shall o’er me roll;

Blest Savior, then in love,

Fear and distrust remove;

Oh, bear me safe above,

A ransomed soul!

HYMN 28: THERE SHALL BE SHOWERS OF BLESSING.

 

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:

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.
