3.Holy Spirit divine, please, bring to my memory, everything that I have done wrong in the past, that I need to restitute, and grant me the grace to restitute them, in Jesus' name.

4.Father, please, give me a good conscience that is devoid of offence towards God and man in Jesus' name.

5.Father, give me wisdom, divine and godly counsels, to make difficult restitutions, that could create more problems than the one I am trying to solve, in Jesus' name.

6.Father, please, give me the grace to right whatever wrong I had done in the past, or return what I took which was not mine by right, in Jesus' name.

7.Father, empower me by Your grace to restitute every lie I had ever told and every deception I have perpetrated against my neighbour, in Jesus' name.

8.Father, let everything in me that is resisting Your counsels and wants me to delay my restitution, be consumed by Your fire, in Jesus' name.

9.Father, when You shall come for the elects, please, count me worthy to go with You, in Jesus' name.

Open Heavens Daily Devotional by Pastor E.A. Adeboye

 OPEN HEAVENS DAILY DEVOTIONAL

 

DATE: FRIDAY 22ND JANUARY 2021.

 

THEME: RESTITUTION.

 

MEMORISE:

 

 

And Zacchaeus stood, and said unto the Lord: Behold, Lord, the half of my goods I give to the poor; and if I have taken anything from any man by false accusation, I restore him fourfold.                            Luke 19:8

 

 

READ:  Leviticus 6:1-5

 

 

1And the Lord spake unto Moses, saying,

 

2 If a soul sin, and commit a trespass against the Lord, and lie unto his neighbour in that which was delivered him to keep, or in fellowship, or in a thing taken away by violence, or hath deceived his neighbour;

 

3 Or have found that which was lost, and lieth concerning it, and sweareth falsely; in any of all these that a man doeth, sinning therein:

 

4 Then it shall be, because he hath sinned, and is guilty, that he shall restore that which he took violently away, or the thing which he hath deceitfully gotten, or that which was delivered him to keep, or the lost thing which he found,

 

5 Or all that about which he hath sworn falsely; he shall even restore it in the principal, and shall add the fifth part more thereto, and give it unto him to whom it appertaineth, in the day of his trespass offering.

 

 

 

MESSAGE:

 

 

Restitution means making right something you have done wrong. if you have stolen something, you should return it now that you are saved. Restitution is proof that you feel sorry for sins committed in the past and wish that you had not committed them in the first place.

 

 

I recall sometime ago when I was still a schoolteacher, I needed an extra mattress for visitor, so I took one from the school's dormitory. After the visitor left, I retained it and also took it along when I was leaving the school. About seven years later, I gave my life to Christ and my conscience began to prick me. I decided to restitute. Since I had been using it for seven years, I knew it wouldn't be right to just return it, so I paid back double the value of the mattress to the school. Nobody told me to do that, I did it because I realized that what I did was wrong, and I wanted to put things right. You should however seek Christian counselling if you are not sure of how to go about restitution.

 

 

Don't mind any Pastor who tells you that there is no need for restitution. If you are genuinely born again, the Holy Spirit will not allow you rest until you have returned whatever it is you took wrongfully. Now, if you are trying to restitute for what happened a very long time ago, you must be just. For example, if you stole Nl7 when it had huge value, it would be wrong to return N17 today. Find out the equivalent of that amount in today's market, or how much interest it would have accrued now if the owner had put it in the bank, then return the sum. Restitution is not a religious act; it is borne out of regret for the past and a willingness to correct it

 

“If a man shall deliver unto his. neighbor money or stuff to keep, and it be stolen out of the man's house; if the thief be found let him pay double.”                                                Exodus22:7

 

 

When someone puts something in your care and It goes missing, you should restitute, unless the owner says otherwise.

 

 

If you borrow someone's car and it got damaged in your in your custody, it is your responsibility to repair It. If you cannot afford the repair at that time, don't act as if nothing happened; report the  matter  to  the  owner  of  the car, apologize and humbly ask him  to  help you  repair it, promising to repay once you can afford it. If the owner says you should not worry, then you are free.

 

 

Like Zacchaeus in today's memory verse, we must understand and abide by the principle of restitution.

 

 

 

KEY POINT:

 

Is there anything the Holy Spirit keeps reminding you to restitute? Go ahead and do it Immediately!

 

 

BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: Deuteronomy 29-31

 

 

AUTHOR: PASTOR E. A. ADEBOYE 

 

 

 

HYMN 11: I NEED THEE EV'RY HOUR.

 

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

No tender voice like Thine can peace afford.

 

o   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: THURSDAY 21ST JANUARY 2021.

 

THEME: TAKING TERRITORIES.

 

MEMORISE:

 

 

“Every place whereon the soles of your feet shall tread shall be yours : f r o m the wilderness and Lebanon, from the river, the river Euphrates, even unto the uttermost sea shall your coast be”                                                                                                                                                       Deuteronomony1:24

 

 

READ:  Deuteronomony1:22-25

 

22 For if ye shall diligently keep all these commandments which I command you, to do them, to love the Lord your God, to walk in all his ways, and to cleave unto him;

 

23 Then will the Lord drive out all these nations from before you, and ye shall possess greater nations and mightier than yourselves.

 

24 Every place whereon the soles of your feet shall tread shall be yours: from the wilderness and Lebanon, from the river, the river Euphrates, even unto the uttermost sea shall your coast be.

 

25 There shall no man be able to stand before you: for the Lord your God shall lay the fear of you and the dread of you upon all the land that ye shall tread upon, as he hath said unto you.

 

 

MESSAGE:

 

But the prince of the kingdom of Persia withstood me one and twenty days: but, lo, Michael, one of the chief princes, came to help me...                                                                                             Daniel 10:13

 

In the kingdom of darkness, territories are allocated to princes - also called principalities. Regardless of this, God commands us to dominate the earth (Genesis 1:28). Thus, as Christians, we are to take charge of any territory we find ourselves in. It is sad however, that many live in bondage and fear of the devil within their territories. This should not be. Some have not been succeeding since they moved into a new environment. Don't be ignorant of the devices of the devil. Once a demon sees that you are ignorant, it will exploit that loophole and launch continuous attacks.

 

 

One of my sons who moved to a new apartment was once confronted by a wizard after his usual praise and prayers. The wizard threatened to kill him. My son ran to me and I followed him to his house. I asked for the direction of the wizard's house and he pointed it to me. I stretched my hand towards that direction and decreed a quit notice on the wizard in the name of Jesus. When I turned to leave, my son asked" Daddy, is that all?" I said " Yes, I have done what I came to do". Within seven days, a huge tree in the wizard's compound dried up and seven days after that, the wizard died.

 

 

Ephesians 1 :21 says you are seated at the right hand of Christ far above principalities and powers. If you do not exercise your power in Christ, the devil will ma e you tremble at his presence. You don't beg the devil, you issue decrees. I must warn you however about what happened to the seven sons of Sceva in Acts 19:13-16. If you are not standing strong in Christ and decide to face demons saying "As Adeboye taught us in the Open Heavens Devotional, I decree your quit notice in the name of Jesus", the demon will say" Jesus I know, Adeboye I know, who are you?'' God forbid that the devil uses you for food. Therefore, make sure that there is no sin in your Iife, ensure that you are a fervent Christian, filled with the Holy Ghost before you face any demon. You will be victorious, in the mighty name of Jesus.

 

 

 

KEY POINT:

 

Don’t be ignorant of the devices of the devil in your neighborhood.

 

 

BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: Deuteronomy 28

 

 

AUTHOR: PASTOR E. A. ADEBOYE 

 

 

 

HYMN 23: STANDING ON THE PROMISES OF CHRIST MY KING.

Through eternal ages let His praises ring,

Glory in the highest, I will shout and sing,

Standing on the promises of God my Savior;

Standing, standing,

I’m standing on the promises of God.

 

2.       Standing on the promises that cannot fail,

When the howling storms of doubt and fear assail,

By the living Word of God I shall prevail,

Standing on the promises of God.

3.       Standing on the promises I now can see

Perfect, present cleansing in the blood for me;

Standing in the liberty where Christ makes free,

Standing on the promises of God.

 

4.       Standing on the promises of Christ the Lord,

Bound to Him eternally by love’s strong cord,

Overcoming daily with the Spirit’s sword,

Standing on the promises of God.

 

5.       Standing on the promises I cannot fall,

List’ning every moment to the Spirit’s call,

Resting in my Savior as my all in all,

Standing on the promises of God.

Open Heavens Daily Devotional by Pastor E.A. Adeboye

 OPEN HEAVENS DAILY DEVOTIONAL

 

DATE: WEDNESDAY 20TH JANUARY 2021.

 

THEME: MCY: REBELLION AGAINST AUTHORITY.

 

MEMORISE:

 

Let every soul be subject unto the higher powers. For there is no power but of God: the powers that be are ordained of God.                  

Romans 13 :1

 

READ:  Romans 13 :1-3

 

1Let every soul be subject unto the higher powers. For there is no power but of God: the powers that be are ordained of God.

 

2 Whosoever therefore resisteth the power, resisteth the ordinance of God: and they that resist shall receive to themselves damnation.

 

3 For rulers are not a terror to good works, but to the evil. Wilt thou then not be afraid of the power? do that which is good, and thou shalt have praise of the same:

 

 

MESSAGE:

 

'RA' in   our equation for Resistance in the Mathematics of Christ in You" (MCV) series which we started on January 11, stands for Rebellion against Authority. Some 'Christians' feel they are too big to do God's work because they are educated· Some refuse to obey their Father-in-the-Lord and still expect to get the       best from him. Listen, nothing can flow from him until you submit to his authority. There is a difference between submission and cooperation. You cooperate when the instruction is convenient but submit whether it is convenient or not. Some 'believers' resist the authority of the government, their supervisors or spouses. Christ cannot dwell in rebellious souls. Rebellion is as witchcraft. 1 Samuel 15 :23 says:

 

 "For rebellion is as the sin of witchcraft, and stubbornness is as iniquity and idolatry..."

 

It is better not to make any sacrifices to God than to do so in disobedience. You should not pay your tithe and refuse to pay your tax. For example, when you knowingly break traffic laws because you want to get to

Church early, God will not accept that kind of sacrifice. No matter how big you are, you have a leader. If you are the General Overseer of your Church, the President of the association of Christian leaders to which you belong is your leader.

 

If you are the president of the Christian Association in your country; there is a president of the land who 1 Peter 2:17 says you must honor. If you are the president of your country, there is a union of Presidents in your continent and that union has a leader you are expected to obey. On the other hand, a President can have a Father-in- the-Lord he is to submit to, just like the King of Israel who called Elisha My father' in 2 Kings 6:21-23. The Father-in-the-Lord too could have leaders he must continue to honor, no matter how great he has become. If you look very closely, you would see that there is an authority figure you are to submit to even if you are a 'big man' in your own right.

 

If you rebel against those God has in authority over you, then Christ cannot dwell and operate in you as He would want to.

 

 

PRAYER POINT:

 

Pray that everything that can limit the measure of Christ in you should become zero. Later in the year, we will dedicate a whole day to pray for the full measure of Christ.

 

 

BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: Deuteronomy 24-27

 

 

AUTHOR: PASTOR E. A. ADEBOYE 

 

 

HYMN 1: ALL HAIL THE POWER OF JESUS NAME.

 

 

1.       All hail the pow’r of Jesus’ Name!

Let angels prostrate fall;

Bring forth the royal diadem,

And crown Him Lord of all!

 

2.       Ye chosen seed of Israel’s race,

Ye ransomed from the fall,

Hail Him Who saves you by His grace,

And crown Him Lord of all!

 

3.       Let every kindred, every tribe,

On this terrestrial ball,

To Him all majesty ascribe,

And crown Him Lord of all!

 

4.       Oh, that with yonder sacred throng

We at His feet may fall!

We’ll join the everlasting song,

And crown Him Lord of all!
