Open Heavens Daily Devotional by Pastor E.A. Adeboye

 OPEN HEAVENS DAILY DEVOTIONAL.

DATE: TUESDAY 2ND FEBRUARY, 2021.

THEME: THE EVERLASTING GOD.

MEMORISE:

“Hast thou not known? hast thou not heard, that the everlasting God, the Lord, the Creator of the ends of the earth, fainteth not, neither is weary? There is no searching of his understanding.”

Isaiah 40:28

READ: Isaiah 40:27-29 (KJV)

27. Why sayest thou, O Jacob, and speakest, O Israel, My way is hid from the LORD, and my judgment is passed over from my God?

28. Hast thou not known? hast thou not heard, that the everlasting God, the LORD, the Creator of the ends of the earth, fainteth not, neither is weary? there is no searching of his understanding.

29. He giveth power to the faint; and to them that have no might he increaseth strength.

MESSAGE:

To be everlasting is to be alive forever. This means that one does not grow old. Our God is ageless. He created time; therefore it has no effect on Him.

Psalms 90:4 says:

For a thousand years in thy sight are but as yesterday when it is past, and as a watch in the night.

God cannot be contained or restrained by time. Even when it seems as if God may be late in showing up, you can count on Him to do what He says He will, at the right time.

The ‘Everlasting-ness’ of God means we should never be afraid of the future. God is in our tomorrow and when we are long gone; He will still be there. We can trust Him to carry us through our lifetime and even keep our children in His care.

You don’t have to worry about your children or grandchildren; the Everlasting God will keep them. God is reliable because He is everlasting.

You know that nobody can kill Him, nobody can dethrone Him and nobody can reduce His power.

Once you put something in His hands, you can go to sleep knowing it is secure. God’s ‘Everlasting-ne

ss’ gives us hope of becoming everlasting as well when we are finally conformed to the image of His dear Son – Jesus Christ. We also will live forever because we have His Spirit.

We Christians cannot die; when we close our eyes here on earth, we will open them in everlasting life. There is no death or any of its cousins like pain and sickness in heaven. Who shall change our vile body, that it may be fashioned like unto His glorious body, according to the working whereby he is able even to subdue all things unto Himself.

(Philippians 3:21)

Do you want to have everlasting life? Then you have to live holy. Hebrews 12:14 says without holiness you cannot see God. Commit to a life of holiness from today.

ACTION POINT:

Praise God because He is everlasting.

AUTHOR: PASTOR E. A ADEBOYE.

BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: Leviticus 7-8

HYMN 19: PRAISE HIM, PRAISE HIM, JESUS OUR BLESSED REDEEMER.

1. Praise Him, Praise Him, Jesus our blessed Redeemer,

Sing, O earth, His wonderful love proclaim!

Hail Him, Hail Him! Highest archangels in glory,

Strength and honour give to His holy name!

Like a shepherd, Jesus will guard His children,

In His arms He carries them all day long.

REFRAIN:

Praise him! praise him! tell of his excellent greatness!

Praise Him! Praise Him! ever in joyful song!

2. Praise Him, Praise Him, Jesus our blessed Redeemer,

For our sins He suffer’d and bled and died;

He, our rock, our hope of eternal salvation,

Hail Him! hail Him! Jesus the crucified.

Sound his praises – Jesus who bore our sorrows,

Love unbounded, wonderful, deep and strong.

3. Praise Him, Praise Him, Jesus our blessed Redeemer,

Heav’nly portals loud with hosannas ring!

Jesus, Saviour, reigneth for ever and ever.

Crown Him, crown Him, Prophet and Priest and King!

Christ is coming, over the world victorious

Pow’r and glory unto the Lord belong.

Open Heavens Daily Devotional by Pastor E.A. Adeboye

 OPEN HEAVENS DAILY DEVOTIONAL

 

DATE: MONDAY 1ST FEBRUARY 2021.

 

THEME: DON'T DISHONOUR GOD.

 

 

MEMORISE:

 

Nevertheless, the foundation of God standeth sure, having this seal, The Lord knoweth them that are his. And, let everyone that nameth the name of Christ depart from Iniquity.                               2 Timothy 2:19

 

 

READ:  1 Samuel 2:30

 

30 Wherefore the Lord God of Israel saith, I said indeed that thy house, and the house of thy father, should walk before me for ever: but now the Lord saith, Be it far from me; for them that honour me I will honour, and they that despise me shall be lightly esteemed.

 

 

MESSAGE:

 

Honor is something you give to a man who has everything else that you can think of giving him. For instance, when a University says they are giving somebody an honorary degree, it is not because the fellow needs the degree to get a job. In fact, honorary degrees are given to those who have already achieved greatness. Now, if you will not honor a man, that may not be a problem, but when you decide to dishonor him when you decide to bring him reproach, then you are provoking him. If you will not honor God, it is advisable that you don't dishonor him either. It 1s advisable that you stay away from anything that has to do with Him at all, including bearing His name, so that your actions will not lead to a reproach on Him. The sons of Eli refused to honor God; to make matters worse, they brought reproach to Him as they made people reluctant to come to the house of God to worship and sacrifice.

 

“Wherefore the sin of the young men was very great before the LORD: for men abhorred the offering of the LORD.”                                                                                              1 Samuel 2:17

 

 

God killed them and their father in one day. If a child with a great father is seen on the news for committing a crime, we say that the child has brought shame and dishonor to his family. If you bear the name of God and you still dabble in sin, you are dishonoring Him. If for example, because of your greed, people say pastors are fraudsters, you are bringing a reproach to the body of Christ. It would be better for you not to even say you are a Christian at all, because when God comes down with His wrath, it would be dangerous. You need to recognize the kind of name you carry when you say you are a Christian. Once you announce that you bear that name, the whole world would start watching you. Run away from anything you could do

that would make people say, " But you call yourself a child of God". People you don't even know are watching.

 

 

I was on a flight from London to Nigeria one day. The fellow sitting behind me knew me but pretended not to. At the end of the flight, he tapped me

and said '"I have been watching you since you came in.  I saw how you rejected the wine and your behavior all through and I know you are a true man of God". Only God knows how many eyes are watching you, and all they are looking for is something that will dishonor your Father in Heaven.

Don't dishonor Him.

 

 

 

REFLECTION:

 

Does your behavior in your office, home, school, church or anywhere else bring honor or dishonor to God?

 

 

BIBLE IN ONE YEAR:  Leviticus 4-6

 

 

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. 

HAPPY NEW MONTH.

THEME: DIVINE MERCY.

 

 

MEMORISE:

 

So then it is not of him that willeth, nor of him that runneth, but of God that sheweth mercy.                                                                                                                                                 Romans 9:16

25 Who giveth food to all flesh: for his mercy endureth for ever.

26 O give thanks unto the God of heaven: for his mercy endureth for ever.

 

 

 

 

MESSAGE:

 

 

The mercy of God is a deep expression of His love to mankind; it is so much that the natural mind cannot make sense of it (Ephesians2:4). A person can labor all his life and make no headway, but when God shows mercy, such a fellow would move from grass to grace in no time at all. Joseph was a slave, laboring for his master for years and then found himself wrongfully imprisoned. One day however, God arranged for the king to summon him and within minutes, he became the second most powerful man in Egypt If someone had told Joseph that morning that he would be the Prime Minister before nightfall, he would have called the person a joker. Who knew him, and by the way, who would make a prisoner Prime Minister? That is however what the mercy of God can do. It does not matter how low you are right now; the mercy of God will lift you higher than your dreams in Jesus' name.

 

 

If there is only one fellow I know who has enjoyed the mercy of God, it is I. I am a little boy from a village that was not on the map until not very long ago. In that village, my family was one of the poorest and least recognized, yet God showed me mercy. Today, by the grace of God, the name Adeboye is known in several countries of the world. If you also want to become great, you need His mercy. You get this mercy by simply asking for it as we see in Hebrews4:16:

           

"Let us therefore come boldly unto the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy, and find grace to help in time of need."

 

 

Exodus 25:17 gives us a hint of the position we should take when seeking His mercy. You will notice that In the dimensions therein, there is no height; just length and breadth. This mercy seat is one that you go flat on, in humility. It is when you have completely laid yourself bare before God that you can enjoy His mercy. When you say "Go ahead and use me for whatever You want, Lord", then you are ready. In all that Joseph went through, not once did he complain or contemplate rejecting Cod. If you still give God terms

and conditions, then you are not yet ready for His divine mercy.

 

 

 

 

PRAYER POINT:

 

Lord, I surrender my will completely to You from today; please show me mercy.

 

 

BIBLE IN ONE YEAR:  Leviticus 1-3

 

 

 

AUTHOR: PASTOR E. A. ADEBOYE 

 

 

 

HYMN 28: WHAT A FRIEND WE HAVE IN JESUS.

 

1.       What a friend we have in Jesus,

All our sins and griefs to bear!

What a privilege to carry

Everything to God in prayer!

Oh, what peace we often forfeit,

Oh, what needless pain we bear,

All because we do not carry

Everything to God in prayer!

 

2.       Have we trials and temptations?

Is there trouble anywhere?

We should never be discouraged—

Take it to the Lord in prayer.

Can we find a friend so faithful,

Who will all our sorrows share?

Jesus knows our every weakness;

Take it to the Lord in prayer.

 

3.       Are we weak and heavy-laden,

Cumbered with a load of care?

Precious Savior, still our refuge—

Take it to the Lord in prayer.

Do thy friends despise, forsake thee?

Take it to the Lord in prayer!

In His arms He’ll take and shield thee,

Thou wilt find a solace there.

 

4.       Blessed Savior, Thou hast promised

Thou wilt all our burdens bear;

May we ever, Lord, be bringing

All to Thee in earnest prayer.

Soon in glory bright, unclouded,

There will be no need for prayer—

Rapture, praise, and endless worship

Will be our sweet portion there.

Open Heavens Daily Devotional by Pastor E.A. Adeboye

 OPEN HEAVENS DAILY DEVOTIONAL

 

DATE: SATURDAY 30TH JANUARY 2021.

 

THEME: DO GOOD.

 

 

MEMORISE:

 

And let us not be weary in well doing: for in due season we shall reap, if we faint not.           Galatians 6:9

 

 

 

READ:  Romans 2:6-10

 

6 Who will render to every man according to his deeds:

 

7 To them who by patient continuance in well doing seek for glory and honour and immortality, eternal life:

 

8 But unto them that are contentious, and do not obey the truth, but obey unrighteousness, indignation and wrath,

 

9 Tribulation and anguish, upon every soul of man that doeth evil, of the Jew first, and also of the Gentile;

 

10 But glory, honour, and peace, to every man that worketh good, to the Jew first, and also to the Gentile:

 

 

 

MESSAGE:

 

 

 

 

 

Good people are wise people. They understand that being good to others will endear them to God, so they keep doing good. Also, they know that according to Proverbs 11:17, when you show mercy to others, you are actually being good to yourself, a when you are cruel to them, you are also being cruel to yourself It is very simple: you cannot deceive God whatever you sow is what you will reap (Galatians 6:7).

 

 

Our God is a good God. He is good even to people who do evil (Matthew5:45), so if you want to be good, learn from Him. David said in Psalm11 9:68:

            "Thou art good, and doest good; teach me thy statutes."

 

 

One of the ways through which God helps us to do good is by anointing us.Jesus in Acts 10:38 began to do good things because of this anointing:

           

"How God anointed Jesus of Nazareth with the Holy Ghost and with power: who went about doing good and healing all that were oppressed of the devil for God was with him."

 

 

The moment you are empowered to do something good for someone and you do not do it, you are asking for the wrath of God to come upon you because it is a waste of His anointing. Proverbs 3:27 says "Withhold not good from them to whom it is due, when it is the power of thine hand to do it"

 

 

This is why whenever I see someone who needs prayers and my protocol officers are blocking the person from reaching me, I intervene and ask them to bring the fellow. I don 't want to annoy my Daddy by withholding what know He has given me for the benefit of others. Do you know that on the last day, we will be judged also based on how good we have been to others (Matthew 25:3l-46)? John1:11 says:

 

"Beloved, follow not that which is evil, that which is good. He that doeth good ls 0 God: but he that doeth evil hath not seen God."

 

 

In other words, if you are truly a child of God as you claim, you must always do good.

 

 

Have you been doing good?

 

 

 

PRAYER POINT:

 

 

Father, help me to always do good unto all men, In the mighty name of Jesus.

 

 

 

BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: Galatians 4-6

 

 

 

AUTHOR: PASTOR E. A. ADEBOYE 

 

 

 

HYMN 16: O GOD OUR HELP IN AGES PAST.

 

1.       O God, our help in ages past,

Our hope for years to come,

Our shelter from the stormy blast,

And our eternal home.

 

2.       Under the shadow of Thy throne

Thy saints have dwelt secure;

Sufficient is Thine arm alone,

And our defense is sure.

 

3.       Before the hills in order stood,

Or earth received her frame,

From everlasting Thou art God,

To endless years the same.

 

4.       Thy Word commands our flesh to dust,

“Return, ye sons of men”:

All nations rose from earth at first,

And turn to earth again.

 

5.       A thousand ages in Thy sight

Are like an evening gone;

Short as the watch that ends the night

Before the rising sun.

 

6.       The busy tribes of flesh and blood,

With all their lives and cares,

Are carried downwards by the flood,

And lost in foll’wing years.

 

7.       Time, like an ever-rolling stream,

Bears all its sons away;

They fly, forgotten, as a dream

Dies at the op’ning day.

 

8.       Like flow’ry fields the nations stand

Pleased with the morning light;

The flow’rs beneath the mower’s hand

Lie with’ring ere ’tis night.

 

9.       O God, our help in ages past,

Our hope for years to come,

Be Thou our guard while troubles last,

And our eternal home.
