Open Heavens Daily Devotional by Pastor E.A. Adeboye

 OPEN HEAVENS DAILY DEVOTIONAL

 

DATE: FRIDAY 19TH FEBRUARY 2021.

THEME:  HOW DESPERATE ARE YOU?

 

 

MEMORISE:

 

And he said, Let me go, for the day breaketh. And he said, I will not let thee go, except thou bless me.

 

Genesis 32:26

 

 

 

READ:  Genesis 32:24-30

 

24 And Jacob was left alone; and there wrestled a man with him until the breaking of the day.

 

25 And when he saw that he prevailed not against him, he touched the hollow of his thigh; and the hollow of Jacob's thigh was out of joint, as he wrestled with him.

 

26 And he said, Let me go, for the day breaketh. And he said, I will not let thee go, except thou bless me.

 

27 And he said unto him, What is thy name? And he said, Jacob.

 

28 And he said, Thy name shall be called no more Jacob, but Israel: for as a prince hast thou power with God and with men, and hast prevailed.

 

29 And Jacob asked him, and said, Tell me, I pray thee, thy name. And he said, Wherefore is it that thou dost ask after my name? And he blessed him there.

 

30 And Jacob called the name of the place Peniel: for I have seen God face to face, and my life is preserved.

 

 

MESSAGE:

 

There are many blessings that have been prepared for God's children, but many do not receive them because they are not just desperate enough. In our Bible reading for today, Jacob wrestled with God because he was desperate for a blessing. Mark 2:4-5 records that the paralyzed man was healed because he and his friends were desperate for his healing. I tell you if only you can be desperate, that issue you have been waiting on God for could have been history by now.

 

 

Unfortunately, some Christians take unpleasant situations as their fate. That shouldn't be! There is nothing you cannot change if you approach God desperately. There was a festival of arts in one of the Northern states in Nigeria some years ago and some of the people who went from the South were involved in a fatal accident on their way back. There was a young man - a Christian who was also involved in the accident. He was among the few survivors but was in a coma for days. Once in a while, he would come out of the coma and shout just one word: "Jesus", then go back into unconsciousness. One day, he came up again and said "Jesus", then opened his eyes and continued, "Death, you are not going to have me; I refuse to die." I am sure he was at the verge of dying, but he fought and overcame. The forces of darkness and hell could not hold him down because he held desperately unto Jesus.

 

 

Are you going to let the devil hold you down in that situation? Are you going to give up hope and let the devil have his way? You must be desperate in you prayers today. You must tell the devil " No way! I am not going to let you have the last say over this matter.

 

 

Now go ahead and Pray to God concerning that stubborn matter. Tell Him you wi11 not rest until He has answered you. Keep calling the name of Jesus concerning that situation. Today is your day of freedom!

If you don’t  have  anything  to  pray  about,  pray for someone else, or you can pray for me.

                        

 

ACTION POINT:

 

Pray desperately about that issue that has lingered for too long.I join my faith with yours and i decree that your answer will come speedily in the name of Jesus.

 

 

BIBLE IN ONE YEAR:  Ephesians 1-3

 

 

AUTHOR: PASTOR E. A. ADEBOYE 

 

 

 

HYMN 18:  PASS ME NOT, 0 GENTLE SAVIOR.

 

1.       Pass me not, O gentle Savior,

Hear my humble cry;

While on others Thou art calling,

Do not pass me by.

 

Refrain:

Savior, Savior,

Hear my humble cry,

While on others Thou art calling,

Do not pass me by.

 

2.       Let me at Thy throne of mercy

Find a sweet relief;

Kneeling there in deep contrition,

Help my unbelief.

 

3.       Trusting only in Thy merit,

Would I seek Thy face;

Heal my wounded, broken spirit,

Save me by Thy grace.

 

4.       Thou the spring of all my comfort,

More than life to me,

Whom have I on earth beside Thee,

Whom in Heav’n but Thee.

Open Heavens Daily Devotional by Pastor E.A. Adeboye

 OPEN HEAVENS DAILY DEVOTIONAL

 

DATE: THURSDAY 18TH FEBRUARY 2021.

THEME:  RICHES WITHOUT SORROW.

 

 

MEMORISE:

 

 

He that hasteth to be rich hath an evil eye, and considereth not that poverty shall come upon him.                                                                                                                                                     Proverbs 28:22

 

 

 

READ:  Timothy 6:9-11

 

9 But they that will be rich fall into temptation and a snare, and into many foolish and hurtful lusts, which drown men in destruction and perdition.

 

10 For the love of money is the root of all evil: which while some coveted after, they have erred from the faith, and pierced themselves through with many sorrows.

 

11 But thou, O man of God, flee these things; and follow after righteousness, godliness, faith, love, patience, meekness.

 

 

 

MESSAGE:

 

 

God wants His children to be rich, but according to our Bible reading today, He warns them to flee the inordinate ambition to be rich at all costs. These days, many people engage in cybercrime and ritual killings, just to get rich. There are some others who are good at falsifying figures so as to get some gain.

 

I assure you that ill-gotten wealth will always have sorrow in it. I have seen all kinds of wealth in my little time as a Pastor and I tell you, many wealthy people are living in so much sorrow that they are willing to give up all they have in exchange for peace of mind. Many people have used ill­ gotten money to buy cars without knowing that they have bought what would drive them to their early graves.

 

You see, if you follow the will of God, He will bless you without adding any sorrow. I believe this is the kind of wealth you want: wealth with no sorrow attached.

 

Matthew 6:3 3 says:

“But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you.”

 

 

1 Timothy 6:10-11 also says:

“For the love of money is the root of all evil: which while some coveted after, they have erred from the faith, and pierced themselves through with many sorrows. But thou,0 man of God, flee these things; and follow after righteousness, godliness, faith, love, patience, meekness.”

 

 

This clearly means that the only way to get wealth without sorrow is to get it in righteousness. I assure you according to the word of God that riches will pursue and overtake you if you put the kingdom of God first in your life. I am speaking from experience.

There were times when I was unable to go to Lagos from the Redemption Camp because I did not have N2 for tollgate fees. I would console my wife by saying "Maybe our not going is God's way of making us avoid an accident on the way". There was to be no accident, It was just that I did not have N2.

 

 

I did not complain then because I knew that my tomorrow would be glorious as long as I kept seeking the Kingdom of God and His righteousness. I did not allow my lack to push me to steal Church funds.

 

 

When any opportunity to get rich through sin comes your way, you had better flee, because wrapped in that Juicy fruit is sorrow and destruction.

 

 

 

KEY POINT:

 

Only God can give you wealth without any kind of sorrow attached to it. Seek Him first.

 

 

BIBLE IN ONE YEAR:  John 19-21

 

 

AUTHOR: PASTOR E. A. ADEBOYE 

 

 

 

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

 

1.       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.

Refrain:

Standing, standing,

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 17TH FEBRUARY 2021.

THEME:  BUILD FOR GOD.

 

 

 

MEMORISE:

 

 

Is it time for you, O ye, to dwell in your cieled houses, and this house lie waste?              

Haggai 1:4

 

 

 

READ: 

 

1In the second year of Darius the king, in the sixth month, in the first day of the month, came the word of the Lord by Haggai the prophet unto Zerubbabel the son of Shealtiel, governor of Judah, and to Joshua the son of Josedech, the high priest, saying,

 

2 Thus speaketh the Lord of hosts, saying, This people say, The time is not come, the time that the Lord's house should be built.

 

3 Then came the word of the Lord by Haggai the prophet, saying,

 

4 Is it time for you, O ye, to dwell in your cieled houses, and this house lie waste?

 

5 Now therefore thus saith the Lord of hosts; Consider your ways.

 

6 Ye have sown much, and bring in little; ye eat, but ye have not enough; ye drink, but ye are not filled with drink; ye clothe you, but there is none warm; and he that earneth wages earneth wages to put it into a bag with holes.

 

7 Thus saith the Lord of hosts; Consider your ways.

 

8 Go up to the mountain, and bring wood, and build the house; and I will take pleasure in it, and I will be glorified, saith the Lord.

 

9 Ye looked for much, and, lo it came to little; and when ye brought it home, I did blow upon it. Why? saith the Lord of hosts. Because of mine house that is waste, and ye run every man unto his own house.

 

10 Therefore the heaven over you is stayed from dew, and the earth is stayed from her fruit.

 

 

MESSAGE:

 

There are certain kinds of offences that the head corporate organization would not bother to add of a corporate organization would not bother to address personally. However, there are also some other kinds of offences that would have to be addressed personally by the head of the organization.  This is similar to what happens in Heaven. All sins are evi1, but there are certain sins for which God may send an angel to punish: the sinner, while there are some others that He address personally. One of such sins is leaving the house of God uncompleted.

 

 

God will fight anyone who leaves His house uncompleted by ensuring that any money such a fellow makes goes into a pocket withholes (Haggai 1:4-7).

 

"Is it time for you, O ye, to dwell in your cieled houses, and this house lie waste? Now therefore thus saith the Lord of hosts; Consider your ways. Ye have sown much, and bring in little; ye eat, but ye have not enough; ye drink, but ye are not filled with drink; ye clothe you, but there is none warm; and he that earneth wages earneth wages to put it into a bag with holes. Thus saith the Lord of hosts; Consider your ways."                                                                          Haggai 1:4-7

 

 

Could it be that the reason you've been unable to do much with your income is that you don't care to contribute to the completion of your local Church building? Today, God is saying "consider your ways”. I don't like it when I see God's building project uncompleted, especially when I i have the resources that can help complete it. I have discovered that in return, God has given me houses that I did not build and cars that I did not buy, including those I cannot afford.

 

 

One of my sons heard that we were building an auditorium in The Redeemed Christian Church of God and immediately sent me a huge sum of money in Naira. Within days, he got the same amount of money he had contributed, but in dollars. when you join in completing God's building project, He will thank you wondrously, but when you ignore it, you may attract His wrath as it is recorded in our Bible reading today.

 

Never miss an opportunity to build for God.

 

 

 

KEY POINT:

 

Every opportunity to give to God Is an opportunity to be blessed by Him; rejoice in it.

 

 

BIBLE IN ONE YEAR:  John 17-18

 

 

AUTHOR: PASTOR E. A. ADEBOYE 

 

 

 

HYMN 6:  GREAT IS THY FAITHFULNESS.

 

1.       Great is Thy faithfulness, O God my Father;

There is no shadow of turning with Thee;

Thou changest not, Thy compassions, they fail not;

As Thou hast been Thou forever wilt be.

Refrain:

Great is Thy faithfulness!

Great is Thy faithfulness!

Morning by morning new mercies I see:

All I have needed Thy hand hath provided—

Great is Thy faithfulness, Lord, unto me!

 

2.       Summer and winter and springtime and harvest,

Sun, moon, and stars in their courses above

Join with all nature in manifold witness

To Thy great faithfulness, mercy, and love.

 

3.       Pardon for sin and a peace that endureth,

Thine own dear presence to cheer and to guide,

Strength for today and bright hope for tomorrow—
