3.Father, in anyway I have fallen short of your glory, please, have mercy and forgive me, in Jesus' name.

4.Father, break me down and remould me, by the power of Your Holy Spirit; destroy every spirit of pride in my life and destiny, in Jesus' name.

5.Father, let every voice saying, "no", to You in my life be silenced forever, and let everything resisting You in me, surrender and bow to Your authority, in Jesus' name.

6.Father, give me a humble and a contrite heart: give me more of Your grace and draw me closer unto You, in Jesus' name.

7.Father, no matter the height that I may attain in life, spiritually and materially, please, let me forever remain humble and be a babe in Your hand, in Jesus' name.

8.Father, let me decrease that You may increase in me; let Christ have His way and be fully formed and be glorified in me, in Jesus' name.

9.Father, empower me to attain a zero Resistance to Your Will, so that Christ may be fully formed and dwell in me so richly, in Jesus' name.

10.Father, bless your son, Pastor E.A.Adeboye; let him never lose his high spiritual flavour, taste and aroma, in Jesus' name.

Open Heavens Daily Devotional by Pastor E.A. Adeboye

 OPEN HEAVENS DAILY DEVOTIONAL

 

DATE: TUESDAY 12TH JANUARY 2021.

 

THEME: MCY:PRIDE.

 

 

MEMORISE:

 

 

But he giveth more grace. Wherefore he saith , God resisteth the proud, but giveth grace unto the humble.

James 4: 6

 

 

READ:  Proverbs 16:18

 

 

18 Pride goeth before destruction, and an haughty spirit before a fall.

 

 

 

MESSAGE:

 

 

Today, we will be considering the element 'P' in the " Mathematics of Christ in You" - MC:' (If you do not understand, kindly refer to the devotional of January 11 ).The element 'P' in the equation for Resistance stands for Pride. Pride will resist the free flow of Christ in you. Today’s memory verse says God resists the proud, but He gives grace to the humble. This means that 1t IS only when pride disappears that the grace of Christ would begin to now flow fully in you.1 Peter 5:6 says:

 

            "Humble yourselves therefore under the mighty hand of God, that he may exalt you in due time:

 

 

Almost as soon as I got born again, I began to hear the voice of the Lord.  It was a sweet experience. I was also the interpreter for the then General Superintendent, and so, out of respect for him, other pastors would not ask that I interpret for them. One day, I felt insulted when a Junior Pastor asked me to interpret for him. I said to myself "I am the interpreter for the big man, how can this Pastor ask me to interpret for him?" I reluctantly accepted because of the culture of discipline in The Redeemed Christian Church of God.

 

As I finished interpreting for him and was going to my car, God asked me "So you are now too big to interpret for my servant?" From that moment, He went silent. Believe me, it is a terrible experience to stop hearing from God. It didn't take long for the devil to exploit this gap and torment me. I wept bitterly as I prayed "Father, forgive me, I will interpret for anyone". At last, God forgave me, and I began to hear from Him again.

 

Many years later, after I had become the General Overseer and I travelled to the town of Iesha, Nigeria. On getting there, I decided to attend the Bible Study at a nearby RCCG Parish. I wanted to Just sit back and enjoy the service, but I was dragged up to the pulpit to teach. I insisted that since the fellow who was to teach had already opened his Bible, he should go ahead, and I would interpret. He said he was only a deacon and was quite low in rank to the General Overseer· When the discussion was becoming drawn, I said 'I command you". Since he had no choice, he taught, and I interpreted for him. As a worker I was too proud to interpret for a Pastor, but now as General Overseer I interpreted for a deacon. The measure of Christ I have in me has increased because I have destroyed pride in my life by His grace. Do you stiII harbor pride? It will hinder Christ from dwelling in your life. Pride must go; it has to die! Deal with it today and see how much Christ will begin to operate in you.

 

 

 

KEY POINT:

Remove every resistance to God's will if you want Christ to dwell in you richly.

 

 

 

BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: Genesis 17-20

 

AUTHOR: PASTOR E. A. ADEBOYE 

 

 

 

HYMN 2: AMAZING GRACE! HOW SWEET THE SOUND.

 

 

1.       Amazing grace! How sweet the sound

That saved a wretch like me!

I once was lost, but now am found;

Was blind, but now I see.

 

2.       ’Twas grace that taught my heart to fear,

And grace my fears relieved;

How precious did that grace appear

The hour I first believed.

 

3.       Through many dangers, toils, and snares,

I have already come;

’Tis grace hath brought me safe thus far,

And grace will lead me home.

 

4.       The Lord has promised good to me,

His Word my hope secures;

He will my Shield and Portion be,

As long as life endures.

 

5.       Yea, when this flesh and heart shall fail,

And mortal life shall cease,

I shall possess, within the veil,

A life of joy and peace.

 

6.       The earth shall soon dissolve like snow,

The sun forbear to shine;

But God, who called me here below,

Will be forever mine.

 

7.       When we’ve been there ten thousand years,

Bright shining as the sun,

We’ve no less days to sing God’s praise

Than when we’d first begun.

Open Heavens Daily Devotional by Pastor E.A. Adeboye

 OPEN HEAVENS DAILY DEVOTIONAL

 

DATE: MONDAY 11TH JANUARY 2021.

 

THEME: MATHEMATICS OF CHRIST IN YOU (MCY).

 

 

MEMORISE:

 

 

To whom God would make known what is the riches of the glory of this mystery among the Gentiles; which is Christ in you, the hope of glory:                                                   Colossians 1:27

 

 

 

READ:  Colossians 2:6 -14

 

6 As ye have therefore received Christ Jesus the Lord, so walk ye in him:

 

7 Rooted and built up in him, and stablished in the faith, as ye have been taught, abounding therein with thanksgiving.

 

8 Beware lest any man spoil you through philosophy and vain deceit, after the tradition of men, after the rudiments of the world, and not after Christ.

 

9 For in him dwelleth all the fulness of the Godhead bodily.

 

10 And ye are complete in him, which is the head of all principality and power:

 

11 In whom also ye are circumcised with the circumcision made without hands, in putting off the body of the sins of the flesh by the circumcision of Christ:

 

12 Buried with him in baptism, wherein also ye are risen with him through the faith of the operation of God, who hath raised him from the dead.

 

13 And you, being dead in your sins and the uncircumcision of your flesh, hath he quickened together with him, having forgiven you all trespasses;

 

14 Blotting out the handwriting of ordinances that was against us, which was contrary to us, and took it out of the way, nailing it to his cross;

 

 

 

MESSAGE:

 

 

The "Mathematics of Christ In You" (MCY) refers to the measure of Christ in you and how much of His attributes you exhibit in your life. The law of electricity which describes how current flows in conductors is quite similar to it. One law that guides the flow of electricity says that the purer the conductor, the easier it is for the current to flow. In other words, the more the impurities in the conductor, the more the resistance to the flow of the current.

  

Thus, the amount of current flowing is determined by how large the resistance is. A high level of resistance is the result of a lot of impurities. In such a situation, the current cannot flow well. The Holy Spirit is the current in our spirit man. How well does He flow in you? For the Holy Spirit to flow freely, your life must be free of impurities, because the more impurities you harbor, the greater the resistance against the flow of the power of God.

 

 

In my journey with Christ, I have come up with "The Law of the Measurement of Christ in You", where the measure of Christ in you is determined by the Presence of God in your life which can be limited by your resistance to His will.

 

RESISTANCE= P+S+ PG+ M+ L+B+ F+ RA.

 

 

The equation above is not exhaustive, but I will pause here because we cannot dwell too long on this topic today. In the next few days, I will be explaining the meaning of each parameter in the equation to you. The lesson here is that if you want God to move mightily in your life, you should have zero Resistance to His will. Then, there would be no limit to how much God can dwell and operate in you. I don't know about you, but for me, I work every day to attain zero Resistance to His will in my life because I want God to dwell and operate in me without restriction. If the Resistance can be zero in you, you too would shake the world.

 

I pray for you that by the end of this series, your Resistance to the move of Christ in you would have become zero, in the mighty name of Jesus.

 

 

 

KEY POINT:

Remove every resistance to God's will if you want Christ to dwell in you richly.

 

 

 

BIBLE IN ONE YEAR:  Deuteronomy 14 -16

 

 

AUTHOR: PASTOR E. A. ADEBOYE 

 

 

 

HYMN 11: I NEED THEE EVE'RY HOUR.

 

1.       I need Thee every hour, most gracious Lord;

No tender voice like Thine can peace afford.

Refrain:

I need Thee, oh, I need Thee;

Every hour I need Thee;

Oh, bless me now, my Savior,

I come to Thee.

 

2.       I need Thee every hour, stay Thou nearby;

Temptations lose their pow’r when Thou art nigh.

 

3.       I need Thee every hour, in joy or pain;

Come quickly and abide, or life is vain.

 

4.       I need Thee every hour; teach me Thy will;

And Thy rich promises in me fulfill.

 

5.       I need Thee every hour, most Holy One;

Oh, make me Thine indeed, Thou blessed Son.

Open Heavens Daily Devotional by Pastor E.A. Adeboye

 OPEN HEAVENS DAILY DEVOTIONAL

 

DATE: SUNDAY 10TH JANUARY 2021.

 

THEME: PERSISTENT PRAYERS.

 

 

MEMORISE:

 

 

Yet because this widow troubleth me, I will avenge her, lest by her continual coming she weary me.                                                                                                                                 

Luke 18:5

 

 

READ:  Luke 18:1-8

 

1And he spake a parable unto them to this end, that men ought always to pray, and not to faint;

 

2 Saying, There was in a city a judge, which feared not God, neither regarded man:

 

3 And there was a widow in that city; and she came unto him, saying, Avenge me of mine adversary.

 

4 And he would not for a while: but afterward he said within himself, Though I fear not God, nor regard man;

 

5 Yet because this widow troubleth me, I will avenge her, lest by her continual coming she weary me.

 

6 And the Lord said, Hear what the unjust judge saith.

 

7 And shall not God avenge his own elect, which cry day and night unto him, though he bear long with them?

 

8 I tell you that he will avenge them speedily. Nevertheless when the Son of man cometh, shall he find faith on the earth?

 

 

 

MESSAGE:

 

 

A few years ago, I told some Pastors that God answers all prayers. Some of them were shocked and I Could see it on their faces. In the Redeemed Christian Church of God, when the Pastor in charge of a Parish cannot solve a problem, he escalates 1t to the Pastor in charge of the area. If the problem continues, to defy all solution, it will continue to be passed up the chain of command until it reaches the General Overseer. Now, who does the General Overseer take the problem to? There is no one I can run to but Jesus Himself. I not only run to Him; I stay with Him in the place of prayer until the problem is solved. lf you would pray persistently, soon your testimony would also be •c od answers all prayers".

 

John16:24 says:

            "Hitherto have ye asked nothing m my name: ask, and ye shall receive, that your joy may be full."

 

 

Some people unknowingly stop praying just before their breakthrough. Why do people stop? Perhaps they think they are disturbing God. Is it not God Himself who said we should ask that our joy may be full? ls it not Jesus Himself who told the story of the widow and the wicked judge in today's Bible reading Why then should you stop praying when your prayer has not yet been answered? In my early years as a Minister, there were prayers I made for many years before I saw answers. I prayed for fifteen years so that I would be able to heal the sick by mere waving of the hand. I did not stop praying after a few years, I persisted and received my answer. What is that long-awaited desire of yours for which you have stopped praying? It is time to start praying again, that your joy may be full.

 

 

you may wonder why God can't just answer you after praying once or twice. Well, He is sovereign. He will choose when to answer you. Also, some requests do not yield result with 'two-minute' prayers. You have to press in the spirit to be able to shift such things in the physical. Some other times, God may be using that situation to build your faith (1 Peter 1:7). Whatever the case, don't get weary when you don't an receive answers immediately; keep praying.

 

 

God promised In Matthew 7:7-8 that when you ask you will receive, when you seek you shall find and when you knock, doors will be 0pened unto you.

 

 

Persist in prayer until He answers. He is a prayer answering God.

 

 

 

KEY POINT:

 

Don’t stop asking until your joy is full.

 

 

BIBLE IN ONE YEAR:  Deuteronomy 11-13

 

 

AUTHOR: PASTOR E. A. ADEBOYE 

 

 

 

HYMN 12: IN CHRIST ALONE.

 

 

In Christ alone my hope is found

He is my light, my strength, my song

This cornerstone, this solid ground

Firm through the fiercest drought and storm

What heights of love, what depths of peace

When fears are stilled, when strivings cease

My comforter, my all in all

Here in the love of Christ I stand.

 

 

In Christ alone who took on flesh

Fullness of God in helpless babe

This gift of love and righteousness

Scorned by the ones He came to save

Till on that cross as Jesus died

The wrath of God was satisfied

For every sin on Him was laid

Here in the death of Christ I live.

 

 

There in the ground His body lay

Light of the world by darkness slain

Then bursting forth in glorious day

Up from the grave He rose again

And as He stands in victory

Sin's curse has lost its grip on me

For I am His and He is mine

Bought with the precious blood of Christ.

 

 

No guilt in life, no fear in death

This is the power of Christ in me

From life's first cry to final breath

Jesus commands my destiny

No power of hell, no scheme of man

Can ever pluck me from His hand

Till He returns or calls me home

Here in the power of Christ I'll stand.
