Open Heavens Daily Devotional by Pastor E.A. Adeboye

 OPEN HEAVENS DAILY DEVOTIONAL

DATE:   SATURDAY 27TH MARCH 2021.

THEME:  EVIL FOR EVIL SHOW LOVE ALWAYS.

MEMORISE:

See that none render evil for evil unto any man; but ever follow that which is good, both among yourselves, and to all men.                                                                                         1 Thessalonians 5:15

READ:  Matthew 5:43-47

43 Ye have heard that it hath been said, Thou shalt love thy neighbour, and hate thine enemy.

44 But I say unto you, Love your enemies, bless them that curse you, do good to them that hate you, and pray for them which despitefully use you, and persecute you;

45 That ye may be the children of your Father which is in heaven: for he maketh his sun to rise on the evil and on the good, and sendeth rain on the just and on the unjust.

46 For if ye love them which love you, what reward have ye? do not even the publicans the same?

47 And if ye salute your brethren only, what do ye more than others? do not even the publicans so?

MESSAGE:

When you find a professing Christian, who pays evil with evil, you have found a pretender. Real children 

of God radiate love, even to the enemies. In fact, Jesus said that is how you would know the difference between a child of God and an unbeliever.

For if ye love them which love you, what reward have ye? do not even the publicans the same? And if ye salute your brethren only, what do ye more than others? do not even the publicans so? Matthew 5:46-47

Forgive everyone who hurts you, be it your spouse colleague, boss, pastor or children. Never pay evil with eviI; forgive.

God says you should not repay evil with evil because He is concerned about the state of your heart.

Matthew 7:17-18 says only evil trees can produce evil fruits while good trees produce only good fruits. When you repay evil with evil, you are bearing evil fruits and that means the devil now has a place in you. Since light and darkness cannot co-exist, then it means the lord has no place in you anymore. God forbid.

So, how should a Christian respond to someone who had one evil to him or her?

“If thine enemy be hungry, give him bread to eat; and if he be thirsty, give him water to drink: For thou shalt heap coals of fire upon his head, and the LORD shall reward thee.”                     Proverbs25:21-22

The Bible passage quoted above says you should respond to evil by showing love. The more love you show the person hurting you, the more trouble you are causing the person if he or she doesn't change for good. The Bible say you are heaping coals of fire on such a person's head. On the other hand, God will reward you for showing love even to your enemies. Just as a part of our topic for today was cancelled, cancel any idea of repaying evil with evil from your mmd permanently.

Always show love.

 

PRAYER POINT:

Father, give me the grace to show love even to my enemies in Jesus' name.

BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: Numbers 5-6

AUTHOR: PASTOR E. A. ADEBOYE 

HYMN 28:  WHAT A FRIEND WE HAVE IN JESUS.

What a friend we have in Jesus,

All our sins and griefs to bear!

What a privilege to carry

Everything to God in prayer!

Oh, what peace we often forfeit,

Oh, what needless pain we bear,

All because we do not carry

Everything to God in prayer!

 

Have we trials and temptations?

Is there trouble anywhere?

We should never be discouraged—

Take it to the Lord in prayer.

Can we find a friend so faithful,

Who will all our sorrows share?

Jesus knows our every weakness;

Take it to the Lord in prayer.

 

Are we weak and heavy-laden,

Cumbered with a load of care?

Precious Savior, still our refuge—

Take it to the Lord in prayer.

Do thy friends despise, forsake thee?

Take it to the Lord in prayer!

In His arms He’ll take and shield thee,

Thou wilt find a solace there.

 

Blessed Savior, Thou hast promised

Thou wilt all our burdens bear;

May we ever, Lord, be bringing

All to Thee in earnest prayer.

Soon in glory bright, unclouded,

There will be no need for prayer—

Rapture, praise, and endless worship

Will be our sweet portion there.

Open Heavens Daily Devotional by Pastor E.A. Adeboye

 OPEN HEAVENS DAILY DEVOTIONAL

DATE:   FRIDAY 26TH MARCH 2021.

THEME:  TRICKS; NOT POWER.

MEMORISE:

And having spoiled principalities and powers, he made a shew of them openly, triumphing over them in it.                                                                                                                     Colossians 2:15

READ:  Hebrews 2:14-15

14 Forasmuch then as the children are partakers of flesh and blood, he also himself likewise took part of the same; that through death he might destroy him that had the power of death, that is, the devil;

15 And deliver them who through fear of death were all their lifetime subject to bondage.

 MESSAGE:

“God hath spoken once; twice have I heard this; that power belongeth unto God.”                Psalm 62:11

The above passage says that power belongs to God, not the devil, many people erroneously believe that the devil is powerful. There is no greater lie than that Jesus Christ said:

“... All power is given unto me in heaven and in earth.”                                                 Matthew 28:18

If all power belongs to Jesus, then no power is le ft for the devil; he is completely powerless. What the Bible says that we should be aware of are the wiles and devices of the devil (Ephesians 6:11, 2 Corinthians 2:11).  He has no power at all, he is merely a trickster.

The devil is cunning, and this makes him dangerous so you must be careful not to fall into his trap.

You must however not ascribe to the devil what he does not possess; all power belongs to my Daddy,

The Almighty God.

Like any good magician, the devil has mastered how to use certain elements, including human psychology, to make his tricks look real. He knows how to use different elements to make things up in order to look powerful, but he has no power. The reason the devil does things to deceive people is so that they can fear him. He will begin to whisper different things just to plant fear in your heart because he knows that the moment fear enters a person, faith is gone, and you need faith to move mountains.

If you are a friend of God, constantly seated with Him, you will be above all the tricks of the devil. It is only those who still live in sin that can be afraid of His tricks.

Ephesians1:21 says that Jesus is:

“Far above all principality, and power, and might, and dominion, and every name that is named, not only in this world, but also in that which is to come:

Always remember all power belongs to Jesus. All the devil has are mere tricks.

KEY POINT:

Jesus has all the power; the devil only has tricks. Don't be fooled.

BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: Numbers 3-4

AUTHOR: PASTOR E. A. ADEBOYE 

HYMN 7:  Have You Been To Jesus

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?

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?

 

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?

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:   THURSDAY 25TH MARCH 2021.

THEME:  SIGNS OF BACKSLIDING IV.

MEMORISE:

 The fruit of the righteous is a tree of life; and he that winneth souls is wise.            

Proverbs 11:30

READ:  John 15:4-5   

4 Abide in me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit of itself, except it abide in the vine; no more can ye, except ye abide in me.

5 I am the vine, ye are the branches: He that abideth in me, and I in him, the same bringeth forth much fruit: for without me ye can do nothing.

MESSAGE:

“Then will I teach transgressors thy ways; and sinners shall be converted unto thee.”   Psalm51:13

We are focusing on Psalm 51 today because it is the prayer of David after he backslid. It is the sincere prayer of a backslide asking for restoration. In the Bible passage quoted above, David said that if God should restore him, he would teach sinners His way. This shows that he had not been witnessing during the period in which he had fallen. When you find out that you are reluctant to win souls, you are already backsliding.

Deliver me from bloodguiltiness, O God, thou God of my salvation: and my tongue shall sing aloud of thy righteousness. O Lord open thou my lips; and my mouth shall shew forth thy praise.      Psalm 51:14-15

Another sign of backsliding is when praising God becomes a casual thing to a believer. David said in the passage above that if God restored him, he would praise Him. This is somebody who the Bible says used to dance with all his might for God, but because he had fallen into sin, even singing became a problem.

You can't deceive God. When was the last time you worshipped God from the depth of your heart? Check your salvation, is it still intact? Is your fire still burning bright? Are you as hot as you used to be or are you becoming lukewarm? Are you sleeping when you are supposed to be at the war front for the Lord Jesus Christ?  Answer these questions honesty within yourself.

I cried to God when I read about how David was relaxing at the time when kings go to war (2 Samuel 11:1-4). This is the man that said, "If nobody will fight Goliath, I will go". Each time I read of how he slept when he should have been at war, I   cry " Father, don't let my case be like this". Ask yourself, when as the last time you won a soul for God? When was the last time you were willing to go out into territories no one would want to go to, preaching the gospel and not caring for your life? Are you sure that you are not sleeping when a war is going on?

The devil is waging a war to snatch your soul from the Lord (1 Peter 5:8); wake up from your slumber and return to your first love.

PRAYER POINT:

Father, help me to be vigilant at all times and to be passionate about winning souls for Your kingdom in the mighty name of Jesus.    

BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: Numbers 1-2

AUTHOR: PASTOR E. A. ADEBOYE 

HYMN 21:  ROCK OF AGES, CLEFT FOR ME

Rock of Ages, cleft for me,

Let me hide myself in Thee;

Let the water and the blood,

From Thy wounded side which flowed,

Be of sin the double cure,

Save from wrath and make me pure.

 

Not the labor of my hands

Can fulfill Thy law’s demands;

Could my zeal no respite know,

Could my tears forever flow,

All for sin could not atone;

Thou must save, and Thou alone.

 

Nothing in my hand I bring,

Simply to Thy cross I cling;

Naked, come to Thee for dress;

Helpless, look to Thee for grace;

Foul, I to the fountain fly;

Wash me, Savior, or I die.

 

While I draw this fleeting breath,

When my eyes shall close in death,

When I rise to worlds unknown,

And behold Thee on Thy throne,

Rock of Ages, cleft for me,

Let me hide myself in Thee.
