Open Heavens Daily Devotional by Pastor E.A. Adeboye

 OPEN HEAVENS DAILY DEVOTIONAL

 

DATE: SUNDAY 21ST FEBRUARY 2021.

THEME:  THE ONLY WISE GOD.

 

MEMORISE:

 

To God only wise, be glory through Jesus Christ forever. Amen.                                        

Romans 16:27

 

 

 

READ:  1 Corinthians 1:19-31

 

19 For it is written, I will destroy the wisdom of the wise, and will bring to nothing the understanding of the prudent.

20 Where is the wise? where is the scribe? where is the disputer of this world? hath not God made foolish the wisdom of this world?

21 For after that in the wisdom of God the world by wisdom knew not God, it pleased God by the foolishness of preaching to save them that believe.

22 For the Jews require a sign, and the Greeks seek after wisdom:

23 But we preach Christ crucified, unto the Jews a stumblingblock, and unto the Greeks foolishness;

24 But unto them which are called, both Jews and Greeks, Christ the power of God, and the wisdom of God.

25 Because the foolishness of God is wiser than men; and the weakness of God is stronger than men.

26 For ye see your calling, brethren, how that not many wise men after the flesh, not many mighty, not many noble, are called:

27 But God hath chosen the foolish things of the world to confound the wise; and God hath chosen the weak things of the world to confound the things which are mighty;

28 And base things of the world, and things which are despised, hath God chosen, yea, and things which are not, to bring to nought things that are:

29 That no flesh should glory in his presence.

30 But of him are ye in Christ Jesus, who of God is made unto us wisdom, and righteousness, and sanctification, and redemption:

31 That, according as it is written, He that glorieth, let him glory in the Lord.

 

 

MESSAGE:

 

Our focus in today's study is on one of the attributes of God - wisdom.            God's wisdom is beyond human understanding. His wisdom has no end, and no one can ever compete with him. Indeed, there is no basis for comparison. The depth of God's wisdom is unsearchable. God uses the foolish things of the world to confound the wise. 1 Corinthians 1:25 tells us that even the foolishness of God is wiser than the wisdom of man, and His weakness is stronger than man strength.

 

One of the numerous ways God showed His infinite wisdom is the way He paid the price for our sins. While the devil was rejoicing that Jesus would be disgraced publicly with a shameful death, God was rejoicing because that was exactly what He needed to save the world (1 Corinthians 2:8). It was after the death of Jesus and the rise of the Apostles, sharing the gospel around the world that Satan realized that he had played by the script of the Omniscient God. While anyone would have seen God's silence when Jesus was being crucified as foolish, it was actually wisdom. This is why I know that though the devil may be laughing at you now, he does not know that God only allowed him to win the battle so that he would lose the war

over your life. You will laugh last in the mighty name of Jesus.

 

“The fear of the LORD is the beginning of wisdom: and the knowledge of the holy is understanding.”                                                                                                                                       Proverbs 9:10

 

Do you want God to give you wisdom? The first step is to fear Him (Proverbs 9:10). When you fear God, you will refrain from all unrighteousness. Your colleagues may call you a fool for not falsifying figures for your gain but soon, when they begin to see you enjoying things that they cannot afford, they will know that you are actually wise. When you fear God and stay away from evil, you begin to walk in wisdom.

 

 

Finally, ensure that you specifically ask God for wisdom and give it to you.

 

“If any of you lack wisdom, let him ask of God, that giveth to all men liberally, and upbraideth not; and it shall be given him.”                                                                                                      James 1:5

 

At the end of time when those who are foolish are thrown into the lake of fire and we who have received the wisdom of God are reigning with Him in eternity, then it will be clear that we made the right choice.

 

 

 

PRAYER POINT:

 

Father, put Your fear in my heart so that I may be wise.

 

 

BIBLE IN ONE YEAR:  Exodus 1

 

 

AUTHOR: PASTOR E. A. ADEBOYE 

 

 

 

HYMN 9:  HOLY, HOLY, HOLY, LORD GOD ALMIGHTY.

 

1.       Holy, holy, holy! Lord God Almighty!

Early in the morning our song shall rise to Thee;

Holy, holy, holy, merciful and mighty!

God in three Persons, blessed Trinity!

 

2.       Holy, holy, holy! All the saints adore Thee,

Casting down their golden crowns around the glassy sea;

Cherubim and seraphim falling down before Thee,

Who was, and is, and evermore shall be.

 

3.       Holy, holy, holy! Though the darkness hide Thee,

Though the eye of sinful man Thy glory may not see;

Only Thou art holy; there is none beside Thee,

Perfect in pow’r, in love, and purity.

 

4.       Holy, holy, holy! Lord God Almighty!

All Thy works shall praise Thy Name, in earth, and sky, and sea;

Holy, holy, holy; merciful and mighty!

God in three Persons, blessed Trinity!

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.
