Open Heavens Daily Devotional by Pastor E.A. Adeboye

 OPEN HEAVENS DAILY DEVOTIONAL.

DATE: SATURDAY 16TH JANUARY, 2021

THEME: MCY: LUST (1).

MEMORISE:

“Love not the world, neither the things that are in the world. If any man love the world, the love of the Father Is not in him.”

1 John 2:15

READ: 1 John 2:15-17 (KJV)

15. Love not the world, neither the things that are in the world. If any man love the world, the love of the Father is not in him.

16. For all that is in the world, the lust of the flesh, and the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life, is not of the Father, but is of the world.

17. And the world passeth away, and the lust thereof; but he that doeth the will of God abideth for ever.

MESSAGE:

The fifth element in our equation for Resistance in the “Mathematics of Christ in You” (MCY) series is ‘L and it stands for Lust.

For today however, we will only focus on the lust of the eyes, Our Bible reading for today says the world and all that is in it will pass away. When you have a strong desire for material things, Christ cannot dwell and operate mightily in you. Many people will miss Heaven because of their love for this world.

Some people cut corners just because they also want to buy a new car like their colleagues. Thank God for cars, but a car can be a moving coffin if gotten through sinful means.

I had been preaching to a friend since the 1980s. I got the opportunity to talk to him about Christ again in 2014.

As soon as I started, he said “Hold on Pastor, you don’t need to worry anymore.

When you were talking to me some thirty years ago, I wasn’t listening because of my ambitions, but now I have seen it all and I know it is vanity”.

He also added “Whenever I want to drink alcohol or do some things I enjoy, you will say it is not allowed. Now, even if someone gives me a hundred million dollars, it will have no value before me. I am ready to give my life to Christ so my life can have real value”.

I didn’t have to preach anymore to win that soul for Christ. If you keep lusting after the material things of this world, you will soon discover that they are not worth the stress. The only thing worth having is the joy of knowing that you are serving the Lord. The fact that you are a Christian however doesn’t mean that you cannot enjoy life.

Rather, it means you will enjoy life to the fullest, only that you have to prioritise spiritual things.

(3 John 2) says: Beloved, I wish above all things that thou mayest prosper and be in health, even as thy soul prospereth. God wants you to prosper, but it must be even as your soul prospers. Any prosperity that will cost your soul will destroy you (Matthew 16:26).

You must first seek the kingdom of God and live a righteous life, then you will never lack any good thing (Matthew 6:33).

This has been my experience with Christ. I focus on pleasing Him every day, and He supplies all my needs.

I remove every resistance to Him dwelling and operating in me, and He removes every hindrance to me accessing all-round prosperity.

KEY POINT:

Focus on the prosperity of your soul, leave the rest to Jesus to handle.

AUTHOR: PASTOR E. A ADEBOYE.

BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: Genesis 31-33

HYMN 7: HAVE YOU BEEN TO JESUS FOR THE CLEANSING POWER?

1. Have you been to Jesus for the cleansing power?

Are you washed in the blood of the Lamb?

Are you fully trusting in His grace this hour?

Are you washed in the blood of the Lamb?

REFRAIN:

Are you washed in the blood,

In the soul cleansing blood of the Lamb?

Are your garments spotless?

Are they white as snow?

Are you washed in the blood of the Lamb?

2. Are you walking daily by the Saviour’s side?

Are you washed in the blood of the Lamb?

Do you rest each moment in the Crucified?

Are you washed in the blood of the Lamb?

3. When the Bridegroom cometh will your robes be white?

Pure and white in the blood of the Lamb?

Will your soul be ready for the mansions bright,

Are you washed in the blood of the Lamb?

4. Lay aside the garments that are stained with sin,

And be washed in the blood of the Lamb;

There’s a fountain flowing for the soul unclean,

O be washed in the blood of the Lamb!

Open Heavens Daily Devotional by Pastor E.A. Adeboye

 OPEN HEAVENS DAILY DEVOTIONAL

 

DATE:   FRIDAY 15TH JANUARY 2021.

 

THEME: MCY: MEN-PLEASING.

 

 

MEMORISE:

 

 

The fear of man bringeth a snare: but whoso putteth his trust in the Lord shall be safe .           Proverbs 29:25

 

 

 

READ:  1 Samuel 15:18 -30

 

18 And the Lord sent thee on a journey, and said, Go and utterly destroy the sinners the Amalekites, and fight against them until they be consumed.

 

19 Wherefore then didst thou not obey the voice of the Lord, but didst fly upon the spoil, and didst evil in the sight of the Lord?

 

20 And Saul said unto Samuel, Yea, I have obeyed the voice of the Lord, and have gone the way which the Lord sent me, and have brought Agag the king of Amalek, and have utterly destroyed the Amalekites.

 

21 But the people took of the spoil, sheep and oxen, the chief of the things which should have been utterly destroyed, to sacrifice unto the Lord thy God in Gilgal.

 

22 And Samuel said, Hath the Lord as great delight in burnt offerings and sacrifices, as in obeying the voice of the Lord? Behold, to obey is better than sacrifice, and to hearken than the fat of rams.

23 For rebellion is as the sin of witchcraft, and stubbornness is as iniquity and idolatry. Because thou hast rejected the word of the Lord, he hath also rejected thee from being king.

 

24 And Saul said unto Samuel, I have sinned: for I have transgressed the commandment of the Lord, and thy words: because I feared the people, and obeyed their voice.

 

25 Now therefore, I pray thee, pardon my sin, and turn again with me, that I may worship the Lord.

 

26 And Samuel said unto Saul, I will not return with thee: for thou hast rejected the word of the Lord, and the Lord hath rejected thee from being king over Israel.

 

27 And as Samuel turned about to go away, he laid hold upon the skirt of his mantle, and it rent.

 

28 And Samuel said unto him, The Lord hath rent the kingdom of Israel from thee this day, and hath given it to a neighbour of thine, that is better than thou.

 

29 And also the Strength of Israel will not lie nor repent: for he is not a man, that he should repent.\

 

30 Then he said, I have sinned: yet honour me now, I pray thee, before the elders of my people, and before Israel, and turn again with me, that I may worship the Lord thy God.

 

 

MESSAGE:

 

The element' M' in our equation for Resistance in the "Mathematics of Christ in You" (MCV) series that started on the 11th of January, stands for Men­ Pleasing. Some people just want to be known by all. The problem with this however is that you will begin to pay too much attention to what people think of you and you will be scared to offend them even when you are on the side of truth.

 

"And Saul said unto Samuel, I have sinned: for I have transgressed the commandment of the Lord, and thy words: because I feared the people, and obeyed their voice."                                                                                                                                                  1 Samuel 1 5 :24

 

 

In the Scripture above, Saul disobeyed God because he wanted to maintain his popularity amongst men. Fame can create a major problem for you, and that is why I do not like it. You cannot live the life that you love to live; you cannot just stop by the road and buy roasted plantain when you feel like eating some. There are a lot of eyes on you. Left to me, if I could do the work of God without showing my face everywhere, I would gladly do it. I thank God I am not after fame, so when people criticize me on social media because of my Bible-based beliefs, I don't pay attention. Some preachers can't preach the truth anymore because they want to remain popular with the congregation. The fear of man brings a snare (Proverbs 2 9: 25). Beware!

 

 

Sometime ago, I went to minister in a Church for a three-day programme. I had preached on faith and other topics and many souls had been saved. I then told the Pastor that I would like to preach a sermon on restitution on the last day. He pleaded with me not to do so, tagging it 'hard teaching'. He also added

that some of the people I had gathered would leave because of this. I told him I did not care about a big congregation headed for hell. What matters most is preparing these people to get to Heaven. I have always told my children that I am a holiness preacher and so I will teach holiness until I die. This will never change even if people decide to leave the Church because of the 'hard teaching'. What I am after is ensuring that you make it to Heaven. You can call me old-fashioned; I don't care. If we get to Heaven together, you will thank me over there for teaching you holiness.

 

 

Men-pleasers seek fame at the expense of pleasing God and this ultimately leads to destruction.

 

 

Don't please people and displease God. Put Him first always (Matthew 6:33).

 

 

 

PRAYER POINT:

 

Ask God to take away every desire in you to be a men-pleaser.

 

 

 

BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: Genesis 28-30

 

 

 

AUTHOR: PASTOR E. A. ADEBOYE 

 

 

 

HYMN 24: TAKE MY LIFE AND LET IT BE.

1.       Take my life and let it be

Consecrated, Lord, to Thee.

Take my moments and my days,

Let them flow in endless praise.

 

2.       Take my hands and let them move

At the impulse of Thy love.

Take my feet and let them be

Swift and beautiful for Thee.

 

3.       Take my voice and let me sing,

Always, only for my King.

Take my lips and let them be

Filled with messages from Thee.

 

4.       Take my silver and my gold,

Not a mite would I withhold.

Take my intellect and use

Every pow’r as Thou shalt choose.

 

5.       Take my will and make it Thine,

It shall be no longer mine.

Take my heart, it is Thine own,

It shall be Thy royal throne.

 

6.       Take my love, my Lord, I pour

At Thy feet its treasure store.

Take myself and I will be

Ever, only, all for Thee.

Open Heavens Daily Devotional by Pastor E.A. Adeboye

 OPEN HEAVENS DAILY DEVOTIONAL

 

DATE:   THURSDAY 14TH JANUARY 2021.

 

THEME: MCY:PAST GLORIES.

 

 

MEMORISE:

 

 

Brethren , I count not myself to hove apprehended: but this one thing I do, forgetting those things which are behind, and reaching forth unto those things which are before.                                              

Philippians 3:13

 

 

READ:  Philippians 3:11-16

 

 

11 If by any means I might attain unto the resurrection of the dead.

 

12 Not as though I had already attained, either were already perfect: but I follow after, if that I may apprehend that for which also I am apprehended of Christ Jesus.

 

13 Brethren, I count not myself to have apprehended: but this one thing I do, forgetting those things which are behind, and reaching forth unto those things which are before,

 

14 I press toward the mark for the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus.

 

15 Let us therefore, as many as be perfect, be thus minded: and if in any thing ye be otherwise minded, God shall reveal even this unto you.

 

16 Nevertheless, whereto we have already attained, let us walk by the same rule, let us mind the same thing.

 

 

 

MESSAGE:

 

We have been examining the "Mathematics of Christ in You" (MCY) since January 11 and the' PG' in the equation for Resistance stands for Past Glories. Sometimes, people allow the beauty of the "good old days" to hinder Christ from working mightily through them today. Some are so stuck in the past that they are unable to move on from there.

 

As we see from today's memory verse, the Lord expects us to keep moving forward. It doesn't matter how glorious the past was, let it go! Luke 17:32 says " Remember Lot's wife". It is a very brief sentence, but one loaded with deep meanings. Lot's wife looked back simply because she was undecided about her past. Christ cannot operate in the lives of many people today for the same reason: they keep on looking back.

 

 

Occasionally, some 'believers' see the advert of a beer brand and say "Hmm, thank God for salvation". What does that mean? An urge to drink? When some believers are offended, they say "If not that I have given my life to Christ, I would have shown you that I am a tiger." Oh, so you, are having thoughts of fighting with the fellow? Are you really sure that your life has been given to Christ? If you keep looking at the past, you might end up going back. In Luke 9:62, Jesus Christ said clearly:

 

            "...No man, having put his hand to the plough, and looking back, is fit for the kingdom of God."

 

 

When you study the armor of God as listed in Ephesians 6:13-17, you will see that there is no protection for the back. This is simply because you must not look back· The moment you turn around; you have given the enemy a very clear chance to destroy you. True soldiers of Christ, those who Christ will dwell in and do exploit through do not look back. They forget the things that are behind and press on for more. They spend time studying the word of God and live by it. They pray for long hours and are committed to spreading the gospel. They don't go around boasting about what they achieved yesterday, instead they are always talking about how much more they want to do for God.

 

 

Determine to do more for God from today.

 

 

 

 

KEY POINT:

 

Forget the past, press forward for more of God.

 

 

 

BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: Genesis 25-27

 

 

AUTHOR: PASTOR E. A. ADEBOYE 

 

 

 

HYMN 10: I'M PRESSING ON THE UPWARD WAY.

 

 

1.       I’m pressing on the upward way,

New heights I’m gaining every day;

Still praying as I’m onward bound,

“Lord, plant my feet on higher ground.”

Refrain:

Lord, lift me up and let me stand,

By faith, on Heaven’s tableland,

A higher plane than I have found;

Lord, plant my feet on higher ground.

 

2.       My heart has no desire to stay

Where doubts arise and fears dismay;

Though some may dwell where those abound,

My prayer, my aim, is higher ground.

 

3.       I want to live above the world,

Though Satan’s darts at me are hurled;

For faith has caught the joyful sound,

The song of saints on higher ground.

 

4.       I want to scale the utmost height

And catch a gleam of glory bright;

But still I’ll pray till heav’n I’ve found,

“Lord, plant my feet on higher ground.”

Open Heavens Daily Devotional by Pastor E.A. Adeboye

 OPEN HEAVENS DAILY DEVOTIONAL

 

DATE:   WEDNESDAY 13TH JANUARY 2021.

 

THEME: MCY:SELF-SUFFICIENCY.

 

 

MEMORISE:

 

 

I am the vine, ye are the b ranches: He that abideth in me, and I in him, the same bringeth forth much fruit: for without me ye can do nothing.                                                    

John 15:5

 

 

 

READ:  Judges16:20-21

 

 

20 And she said, The Philistines be upon thee, Samson. And he awoke out of his sleep, and said, I will go out as at other times before, and shake myself. And he wist not that the Lord was departed from him.

 

21 But the Philistines took him, and put out his eyes, and brought him down to Gaza, and bound him with fetters of brass; and he did grind in the prison house.

 

 

MESSAGE:

 

 

The 'S' in our equation for Resistance in the "Mathematics of Christ in You" (MCY)stands for Self-Sufficiency (If you do not understand, kindly refer to the devotionals of January.11 and 12). Most times, what many people call self-suff1c1ency is purely reliance on their flesh rather than God. In Daniel 4 :2 8-37, we see how this attitude got Nebuchadnezzar into trouble. He said "Is this not Babylon that I built?" As a result, God sent him to eat grass in the forest for seven years to prove to him that all he had was from Him. By the time he came back, he acknowledged God as the Most High who rules in the affairs of men.

 

Today's Bible reading tells the story of Samson. This man had defeated an entire army with the jawbone of an ass. He was really strong. Unfortunately, he did not realize that this strength was not from him but from God. I know this because if you look through the feats he had accomplished, you would see everything starting with "And the spirit of the lord came upon Him" Judges 14:6, Judges 14:19, Judges 15:14). One day, after God's Spirit had left

him, he said "'I will arise and go out as at other times before" Judges 16:20) but he was put to shame. It does not matter how gifted or skillful you are, without God, you are no different from the sand in the beach.

 

Many a time, when we listen to the testimonies of some people, we still see them glorifying 'self'. They take the shine off God and put it on their efforts. In Philippians 3:3-7, Paul had been talking so much about himself until something warned him "Be careful", and he quickly added in verse 7 "But what things

were gain to me, those I counted loss for Christ."Proverbs3 :5-6 says:

 

            "Trust in the lord with all thine hear1; and lean not unto thine own understanding. In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths."

 

 

You want God to live in you and operate through you? Then, you must not lean on your own understanding. You must get to the point where you can say that it is in Him that I live, move and have my being (Acts1 7:28).

 

We should always remember the words of Aposele Paul in 2 Corinthians 3:5:

"Not that we are sufficient of ourselves to think anything as of ourselves; but our sufficiency is of God;”

 

 

KEY POINT:

You are nothing without God.

 

 

 

BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: Genesis 21-22

 

 

AUTHOR: PASTOR E. A. ADEBOYE 

 

 

 

HYMN 14: JESUS MY LORD, MY GOD, MY ALL

 

 

 

 

1 Jesus, my Lord, my God, my All,

How can I love thee as I ought?

And how revere this wondrous gift,

So far surpassing hope or thought?

Sweet Sacrament, we thee adore;

Oh, make us love thee more and more.

Oh, make us love thee more and more.

 

 

2 Had I but Mary's sinless heart

To love thee with, my dearest King,

Oh, with what bursts of fervant praise

Thy goodness, Jesus, would I sing.

Sweet Sacrament, we thee adore;

Oh, make us love thee more and more.

Oh, make us love thee more and more.

 

 

3 Thy Body, Soul, and Godhead, all,

O mystery of love divine.

I cannot compass all I have,

For all thou hast and art are mine.

Sweet Sacrament, we thee adore;

Oh, make us love thee more and more.

Oh, make us love thee more and more.
