Open Heavens Daily Devotional by Pastor E.A. Adeboye

 OPEN HEAVENS DAILY DEVOTIONAL

 

DATE: SATURDAY 20TH FEBRUARY 2021.


THEME:  ALL POWER BELONGS TO GOD

 

 

MEMORISE:

 

Once God has spoken; twice have I heard this; that power belongeth unto God.                 

Psalm 62:11

 

 

 

READ:  Job 26:12-14

12 He divideth the sea with his power, and by his understanding he smiteth through the proud.

 

13 By his spirit he hath garnished the heavens; his hand hath formed the crooked serpent.

 

14 Lo, these are parts of his ways: but how little a portion is heard of him? but the thunder of his power who can understand?

 

 

 

MESSAGE:

 

My God is very powerful. God's power is everlasting; it never fails nor diminishes. Only an all-powerful God could have created the sun with mere words (Genesis 1:3). Only an all-powerful God would part the Red Sea with a blast from His nostrils so His children could cross safely and then close it back to drown their pursuers (Exodus 15:8). Usually, food grows from the ground, but it takes an all-powerful God to rain food down from Heaven for His children to eat (Exodus 16:13-15,31).

 

In our Bible reading for today, Job described the omnipotent nature of God when he said:

 

“He divideth the sea with his power, and by his understanding he smiteth through the proud. By his spirit he hath garnished the heavens; his hand hath formed the crooked serpent. Lo, these [are] parts of his ways: but how little a portion is heard of him? but the thunder of his power who can understand?”           

Job26:12-14

 

How we describe God captures but a tiny fraction of the power He wields. Our minds cannot fully comprehend His power and that is why a lot of times, we undermine His omnipotence. Often times, we are quick to forget that nothing is beyond God. Luke 1:37 says that with God nothing shall be impossible. Jeremiah 32:17 says:

“Ah Lord God! behold, thou hast made the heaven and the earth by thy great power and stretched out arm, and there is nothing too hard for thee.”

 

 

God is able to bring to pass anything He desires. Many believers are living with problems today because they have not come to the understanding that all power in heaven and on earth belong to God. He is not a God that is limited by time or the acts of men. He is the Mighty Man in Battle, the Ancient of Days, Creator of Heaven and Earth, Undefeatable Champion, The Almighty God!

 

 

If you know how powerful God is, you will never undermine His ability to turn your situation around and give you victory in all battles of life.

 

Go before Him today in faith that He is the Almighty God and He will surely prove His Omnipotence in your life.

 

 

PRAYER POINT:

 

Lord, help me to acknowledge at all times that all power belongs to You alone.

 

 

BIBLE IN ONE YEAR:  Ephesians 4-6

 

 

 

AUTHOR: PASTOR E. A. ADEBOYE 

 

 

 

HYMN 1:  ALL HAIL THE POW'R 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!

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.
