Open Heavens Daily Devotional by Pastor E.A. Adeboye

 OPEN HEAVENS DAILY DEVOTIONAL

 

DATE: TUESDAY 23RD FEBRUARY 2021.

THEME:  GUARD YOUR HEART.

 

 

MEMORISE:

 

Keep thy heart with all diligence; for out of it are the issues of life.                                      

Proverbs 4:23

 

 

 

READ:  Psalm 119:10-12

 

10 With my whole heart have I sought thee: O let me not wander from thy commandments.

 

11 Thy word have I hid in mine heart, that I might not sin against thee.

 

12 Blessed art thou, O Lord: teach me thy statutes.

 

 

 

MESSAGE:

 

 

It is shocking how believers engage in all manner of conversations and   associations carelessly. If you know the value of your heart, you would guard it jealously. In Samuel 13 we see a classic case of what happens when person does not guard his or her heart. Amnon who was prince and could have married any lady in the land lusted after his half-sister who was a virgin. He then engaged in a seemingly harmless conversation with a friend who watered the seed of evil already planted in his unguarded heart. The evil desire then blossomed and led to his untimely death in verses 28 and 29 of the same chapter. The man

who advised him to rape his sister is the same one who announced his death to David, his father (2 Samuel 13:32). Choose those you associate with wisely (Psalm 1:1).

 

Be careful of whom you listen to and be mindful of what you let into your heart. Jesus said in Matthew 5:8:

 

"Blessed are the pure in heart: for they shall see God."

 

If you allow impurities to dwell in your heart, forget about ever seeing God.

 

In Matthew 12:34, Jesus said:

 

"... for out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaketh."

 

 

In other words, your lifestyle and speech are an overflow of the meditation of your heart. Believers who listen to worldly music and also allow their children to listen to them are courting trouble. The result may not be instant, but it will accumulate and surely begin to yield ungodly fruits.

 

 

King David knew the secret to a clean heart, and he shared this in Psalm 119 :11:

"Thy word have I hid in mine heart, that I might not sin against thee."

 

Meditating on the Scriptures, listening to recordings of sound teachers of the gospel and keeping company with fellow believers are some of the primary ways through which we can keep our hearts guarded. You can only express what you have in your heart. Thus, if you constantly expose your heart to God's word, you would guard your heart from all forms of ungodliness. Motivational words cannot cure sinful thoughts, only the word of God can.

 

 

Fill your heart with the word of God.

 

 

 

ACTION POINT:

 

Guard your heart diligently with the word of God.

 

 

BIBLE IN ONE YEAR:  Exodus 5-7

 

 

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.

Open Heavens Daily Devotional by Pastor E.A. Adeboye

 OPEN HEAVENS DAILY DEVOTIONAL

 

DATE: MONDAY 22ND FEBRUARY 2021.

THEME:  THE POWER IN A NAME.

 

MEMORISE:

 

That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth;                                                                                                                      Philippians 2:10

 

 

 

READ:  Philippians 2:9-11

 

9 Wherefore God also hath highly exalted him, and given him a name which is above every name:

 

10 That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth;

 

11 And that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.

 

 

MESSAGE:

 

Many people wonder why names are important. Well, to start with, a name says a lot about the bearer. The Bible says that whatever Adam named the animals, that is what they were called (Genesis l :19). What you are called has serious consequences on what you become.

 

 

When I was a lecturer at the University of Lagos, there was a Professor's typist who everyone jokingly called Prof. Whenever they called him Prof, he would smile and reply, "Yes, yes". Then one day, he made a life changing decision. "I am a typist, but everybody calls me Professor. Then a Professor I will become". He then began to attend evening classes and little by little, he passed his exams and gained admission into the University. Before I left the University of Lagos, the typist was already studying for his Ph.D. All these came about because a typist was called a Professor.

 

 

God takes names very seriously. In Genesis 17:5 He changed Abram's name to Abraham, then in Genesis 17:15 He changed Sarai's name to Sarah.

 

 

God also changed Jacob's name as well in Genesis 32:28:

“And he said, Thy name shall be called no more Jacob, but Israel...”

 

 

God changed their names when He wanted to promote them. He gave them new names that reflected what He wanted to make out of them. This teaches us that if we want to go to a new level, we should begin to bear the name for that level.

 

 

Just as we see in our Bible reading for today, God exalted Jesus by giving Him a name that is above every other.

 

 

What is the next level that you want to attain? Start bearing a name that reflects that new level from now. However, if you think that you might get into trouble by asking people to call you that name, stand in front of your mirror and begin to call yourself that name as often as you can.

 

 

Some believers answer to funny nicknames that are not a reflection of who they want to be; worse still, some even call themselves such names in a bid to appear modest. Don't answer to such nicknames anymore. The name you answer to is what you will become.

 

 

 

REFLECTION:

 

What is the name that you are called? Is it a reflection of what you want to become? If not, change that name immediately.

 

 

BIBLE IN ONE YEAR:  Exodus 2-4

 

 

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: 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.

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

Holy, holy, holy; merciful and mighty!
