Open Heavens Daily Devotional by Pastor E.A. Adeboye

 OPEN HEAVENS DAILY DEVOTIONAL

 

DATE: MONDAY 8TH FEBRUARY 2021.

 

THEME:  A TIME TO FLEE II.

 

 

MEMORISE:

 

Flee also youthful lusts: but follow righteousness, faith, charity, peace, with them that call on the Lord out of a pure heart.                                                                                          2 Timothy 2:22

 

 

 

READ:  Genesis 39: 7-12

 

7 And it came to pass after these things, that his master's wife cast her eyes upon Joseph; and she said, Lie with me.

 

8 But he refused, and said unto his master's wife, Behold, my master wotteth not what is with me in the house, and he hath committed all that he hath to my hand;

 

9 There is none greater in this house than I; neither hath he kept back any thing from me but thee, because thou art his wife: how then can I do this great wickedness, and sin against God?

 

10 And it came to pass, as she spake to Joseph day by day, that he hearkened not unto her, to lie by her, or to be with her.

 

11 And it came to pass about this time, that Joseph went into the house to do his business; and there was none of the men of the house there within.

 

12 And she caught him by his garment, saying, Lie with me: and he left his garment in her hand, and fled, and got him out.

 

 

MESSAGE:

 

Whatever you know or suspect will annoy God, run away from it. For example, in Malachi 3:8-9, the Almighty God says that if you rob Him of His tithe, He would curse you. If I were you, I would vehemently avoid a curse from God, because if God curses you Himself, who would cancel the curse? Don't spend His tithe!

 

"Flee fornication. Every sin that a man doeth is without the body; but he that committeth fornication sinneth against his own body."                                                                                           1 Corinthians 6:18

 

 

In the above passage, it says clearly that you must flee fornication. God said if the devil comes against you, resist him and he will flee (James 4:7), but when you find someone who wants to lead you into fornication, don't wait to fight, flee! In Genesis 39 :7-1 5, when the wife of Potiphar tried to get Joseph to commit adultery with her, the Bible says that Joseph fled. You must flee fornication because the Bible says

that when someone has been committing sin for long and God says, "This fellow has become an abomination; I want to destroy Him", He will arrange for the fellow to commit adultery. Once   he commits adultery, he is finished.

 

 

“The mouth of strange women is a deep pit: he that is abhorred of the LORD shall fall therein.”                                                                                                                                                           Proverbs 22: 14

 

Therefore, whenever you are beginning to feel tempted to commit adultery or fornication, you should cry to God and say "Lord, what have I done to become an abomination to you? Please forgive me" then flee whatever was drawing you to sexual immorality in the first place. The wife of one of my Pastors once reported to me that her husband's secretary had been cooking and bringing him meals in the office every day. I sent for the man and he, confirmed his wife's report. I said, "Go back and sack that secretary". He did, but then reemployed her two weeks later. When I heard, I told him "You are about to destroy yourself'. Before long, the man and his secretary-a married, woman went to start their own Church. Soon after, the secretary chased him out of the Church that they both founded. After that, her husband discovered that two of their sons were the biological children of the so-call ed Pastor -her former boss. In short, everything started to go down for the man when he refused to flee the source of adultery. It does not matter how hard it is: flee fornication so that you would not be destroyed.

 

 

 

KEY POINT:

 

Adultery and fornication are not things to joke with at all. If you have ever done it in the past, cry to God today to forgive you.          

 

BIBLE IN ONE YEAR:  John 6-8

 

 

 

AUTHOR: PASTOR E. A. ADEBOYE 

 

 

HYMN 7:  HAVE YOU BEEN TO JESUS.

 

1.       Have you been to Jesus for the cleansing pow’r?

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 Savior’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?

Are you washed in the blood of the Lamb?

Will your soul be ready for the mansions bright,

And be 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,

Oh, be washed in the blood of the Lamb!

Open Heavens Daily Devotional by Pastor E.A. Adeboye

 OPEN HEAVENS DAILY DEVOTIONAL

 

DATE: SUNDAY 7TH FEBRUARY 2021.

 

THEME:  A TIME TO FLEE I.

 

 

MEMORISE:

 

But when they persecute you in this city, flee ye into another: for verily I say unto you, Ye shall not have gone over the cities of Israel, till the Son of man be come.                           Matthew 10:23

 

 

 

READ:  Genesis 27:41-45

 

41 And Esau hated Jacob because of the blessing wherewith his father blessed him: and Esau said in his heart, The days of mourning for my father are at hand; then will I slay my brother Jacob.

 

42 And these words of Esau her elder son were told to Rebekah: and she sent and called Jacob her younger son, and said unto him, Behold, thy brother Esau, as touching thee, doth comfort himself, purposing to kill thee.

 

43 Now therefore, my son, obey my voice; arise, flee thou to Laban my brother to Haran;

 

44 And tarry with him a few days, until thy brother's fury turn away;

 

45 Until thy brother's anger turn away from thee, and he forget that which thou hast done to him: then I will send, and fetch thee from thence: why should I be deprived also of you both in one day?

 

 

 

 

 

MESSAGE:

 

If you are to achieve your purpose on earth, there is a      time to run. In our Bible reading for today, 'Jacob has been mightily blessed by his father. His brother Esau however, wanted to kill him. Jacob fled. If he had not fled, all the blessings would have been wasted. In 1 Sam, 19:9-12, when David was playing for King Saul who threw a spear at him and missed, David fled. If he hadn't fled at that time, he might never have

become the king of Israel. There is a time to flee. In Matthew 2:13-15, the Bible tells us that the Almighty God told Joseph to flee with Jesus. You may think " But where were the angels? They should have

been around to protect Him." God said "flee " because there is a time to flee. Once in a while, the Almighty God Himself will tell you "I am your refuge, but for now, I say run."

 

 

When I was a young Pastor in the RCCG and the Lord began to move mightily in my life, the persecution from some other pastors of the Church became so much at a point that I had to flee the University of Lagos to the University of Ilorin where I continued with lecturing Job. I fled. Once, a Pastor wrote me a letter full of insults which I read to my Father-in-the-Lord - the then General Superintendent. Rather than discipline the Pastor as I had expected, he asked me to go and plead for the man's forgiveness, even though I hadn't done anything wrong. I was shocked and to be honest, it was hard for me to do. Thank God I obeyed because some time later the Pastor confessed that, having concluded that he was going to hell, he had also resolved to take me along with him. My Father-in-the-Lord had seen that this was not a fight to face, but rather one to flee.

 

 

When it is time to flee, flee! When you are dealing with false brethren, it is time to flee. The elders have a saying that if the enemy within cannot kill you, neither can the one without. Samson's brethren were the ones who presented him bound to the Philistines in Judges 15:9-13. When the devil could not get him through them, he decided to bring one of his daughters into Samson's internal circle and thus got him that way. When the devil is determined to bring a fellow down, he will enter into one of the fellow's brethren like he entered into Judas. Had it not yet been Jesus time to be crucified, He would have Fled.

 

 

Flee false brethren; they are not the ones actually fighting you, it is the devil using them. If at  all you engage them, don’t forget : the internal enemy is more dangerous than the external one.

 

 

 

PRAYER POINT:

 

Father, expose all false brethren around me and help me to flee when it is time to flee in Jesus’ Name.

 

 

BIBLE IN ONE YEAR:  John 4-5

 

 

 

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

 

 

here 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

Open Heavens Daily Devotional by Pastor E.A. Adeboye

 OPEN HEAVENS DAILY DEVOTIONAL

 

DATE: SATURDAY 6TH FEBRUARY 2021.

 

THEME: A TIME TO HIDE.

 

 

MEMORISE:

 

Come, my people, enter thou into thy chambers, and shut thy doors about thee: hide thyself as it were for a little moment, until the indignation be overpast.                                                                      Isaiah 26:20

 

 

READ:  Proverbs 22:3-5

 

3 A prudent man foreseeth the evil, and hideth himself: but the simple pass on, and are punished.

 

4 By humility and the fear of the Lord are riches, and honour, and life.

 

5 Thorns and snares are in the way of the froward: he that doth keep his soul shall be far from them.

 

 

MESSAGE:

 

Our Bible reading for today tell s us clearly that there is a time to hide. Exodus 2:1-2 tells us that Moses was born at a time when all male children born to the nation of Israel were to be killed, so his mother hid him. If she had not hidden him for those three months, he would have been killed and his purpose for coming to earth would have been truncated. There is a time to hide. In Exodus 12:21-23, the Almighty God told the children of Israel that He would be visiting Egypt that night. He asked them to hide in their homes and not come out. Oh yes, the God we serve is the Almighty God, but He Himself says there is a time to hide. In 1 Kings 1 7:1-3, after Elijah went before Ahab and prophesied that there would be no rain or dew

until he called for it, God told him to hide. The word of God says there is a time to hide.

 

 

When I was much younger, my father declined an invitation to join a particular political party because the principal of my school belonged to an opposing party and he didn't want that to cause problems for me. The party members said "Oh, so it is because of this boy that you won't join us. Let us see how old the boy will be before he dies". He came home, told us and I ran. I was in hiding for thirteen years. If I hadn't fled then, you probably would not be reading from me today. There is a time to hide.

 

 

 

There is also a time to come out of hiding. In Exodus 3:1- 12, after Moses had been hiding for forty years from Pharaoh, God came and told him that it was time to come out In 1 Kings 18:1, the Almighty God said to Elijah "Go, shew thyself unto Ahab". I want to believe God for any user of this devotional whose star has been hidden up until this moment that from today, your star will begin to shine. God has a timetable for each individual; you have to be in constant communion with Him to know what season of your life you are in per time (Ecclesiastes 3:1).

 

 

Jesus worked by God's timetable for Him. He stayed in hiding for thirty years until it was time to come out. Don't come out before your time. Some people feel that because they can preach then they should start a Church. Some think that because they can compose songs then ii is time to release an album. God has a timetable for you. If you come out when you should be hiding, your star could be crushed. Stay in constant

communion with God so that when He says "Hide ", you hide and when He says "Come Out'', you come out.

 

 

 

KEY POINT:

 

If you come out when you should be hiding, your star could be crushed.

 

 

BIBLE IN ONE YEAR:  John 1-3

 

 

 

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.
