Open Heavens Daily Devotional by Pastor E.A. Adeboye

 OPEN HEAVENS DAILY DEVOTIONAL

 

DATE: WEDNESDAY 3RD FEBRUARY 2021.

 

THEME: BELIEVER FOR SHOW?

 

 

MEMORISE:

 

Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven.                                                                                      Matthew 7:21

 

 

READ:  Matthew 7:21-23

 

21 Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven.

 

22 Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works?

 

23 And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity.

 

 

MESSAGE:

 

One Bible passage that amazed me when I first read it is Matthew 7:22 -23. It says that there will be called believers who would have been healing the sick and casting out demons in the name of Jesus here on earth, but on the last day Jesus will say to them "Get behind me you workers of iniquity, I never knew you." Wouldn't it be such a disappointment to have done so much for God and then on the last day, when you are supposed to receive your crown, He says "I never knew you"? Since Jesus cannot lie, you then need to really be sure you have a relationship with Him while here on earth. You need to check thoroughly check if

your faith is truly from the heart or not just something that is for show. The fact that you call yourself a believer is not enough, 2 Corinthians 10:18 says:

 

            "For not he that commendeth himself is approved,but whom the Lord commendeth."

 

It is not about what you call yourself; it is about what God calls you.

 

 

 

 

It is possible to be raising the dead and still not be a true believer, because performing miracles is a gift of the Holy Spirit, whereas Jesus said believers are identified by the fruit of the Holy Spirit. It is easy to get carried away when you start exhibiting the gifts, but you must pay attention to the fruit if you want to remain a true believer. Check your life in comparison to the fruit of the Holy Spirit as listed in Galatians 5:22-24:

 

"But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness; goodness, faith, Meekness, temperance: against such there is no law. And they that are Christ's have crucified the flesh with the affections and lusts."

 

 

Is your lifestyle in line with this Scripture? If you only read your Bible when you are to preach or teach Bible Study, you are a believer for show. If you can lead a prayer meeting for two hours but cannot pray for thirty minutes in your closet, you are a believer for show. If you only fast when the Church says you should, so that you can also say that you participated, yet you don't 'declare fasting days for yourself personally, you are a believer for show. If you condemn fornication and adultery publicly, but still indulge immoral thoughts in your heart, you are a believer for show.

Please note: no 'believer for show' will make it to Heaven.

 

 

 

REFLECTION:

 

Are you true believer or just a believer for show?

 

 

BIBLE IN ONE YEAR:  Leviticus 9-10

 

 

AUTHOR: PASTOR E. A. ADEBOYE 

 

 

HYMN 22:  STAND UP, STAND UP FOR JESUS.

 

1.       Stand up, stand up for Jesus! ye soldiers of the cross;

Lift high His royal banner, it must not suffer loss:

From vict’ry unto vict’ry, His army shall He lead,

Till every foe is vanquished, and Christ is Lord indeed.

 

2.       Stand up, stand up for Jesus! The trumpet call obey:

Forth to the mighty conflict, in this His glorious day;

Ye that are men now serve Him against unnumbered foes;

Let courage rise with danger, and strength to strength oppose.

 

3.       Stand up, stand up for Jesus! Stand in His strength alone,

The arm of flesh will fail you, ye dare not trust your own;

Put on the gospel armor, and watching unto prayer,

Where calls the voice of duty, be never wanting there.

 

4.       Stand up, stand up for Jesus! the strife will not be long;

This day the noise of battle, the next the victor’s song;

To him that overcometh a crown of life shall be;

He with the King of glory shall reign eternally.

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.
