Open Heavens Daily Devotional by Pastor E.A. Adeboye

 OPEN HEAVENS DAILY DEVOTIONAL

  

DATE:   FRIDAY 23RD APRIL 2021.

  

THEME: CONDITIONS FOR DlVINE BLESSINGS.

  

MEMORISE: 

And all these blessings shall come on thee, and overtake thee, if thou shalt hearken unto the voice of the LORD thy God.

Deuteronomy 28: 2

 

 READ:  Genesis 27:1-4

 1And it came to pass, that when Isaac was old, and his eyes were dim, so that he could not see, he called Esau his eldest son, and said unto him, My son: and he said unto him, Behold, here am I.

 

2 And he said, Behold now, I am old, I know not the day of my death:

 

3 Now therefore take, I pray thee, thy weapons, thy quiver and thy bow, and go out to the field, and take me some venison;

 

4 And make me savoury meat, such as I love, and bring it to me, that I may eat; that my soul may bless thee before I die.

 

  

MESSAGE:

Many people wish to be blessed by God and man yet have never done anything towards actualizing their desire.  Some have received great prophecies which indeed were genuine but did not come to pass because of their in action.


There are principles that guide divine blessings, the first being that you must be ready to take action. When the Lord told the children of Israel that it was time, they possessed their long-promised land, they had to take action by first conquering the inhabitants before taking control of the land that flowed with milk and honey (Joshua 1:11 -15).

 

In Exodus 14, before the Israelites could walk on dry land in the midst of the Red Sea, they had to first move forward. That prophecy concerning you may not come to pass until you take action.

 

In the Scripture reading of today, Esau had to meet certain conditions before he could access his father's blessing. The father's blessing, whether biological or spiritual is so powerful and can only be reversed by God; this is why you must not miss it If receiving the blessing is so great, imagine the implication of missing it. To access divine blessings, you must be ready to give. Proverbs 3:9-10 says:

 

“Honour the LORD with thy substance, and with the firstfruits of all thine increase: So shall thy barns be filled with plenty, and thy presses shall burst out with new wine.”

 

You should always have something to give, not only to God but also to His servants; no gift is too big or too small.

 

Isaiah 55:10 says that God will always give seed to the sower. A seed is not to be consumed, but rather sown so that it can bring forth a harvest. As long as you sow, you will surely reap; as long as you give, you will surely receive.

 

 

I pray that at every point in your life, you will not lack seed to sow in order to access your divine blessings, in Jesus' name.

 

PRAYER POINT:

 Father, give me all it takes to access divine blessings, in the mighty name of Jesus.

 

BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: Matthew 12.

 

AUTHOR: PASTOR E. A. ADEBOYE 

 

HYMN 25:  THERE SHALL BE SHOWERS OF BLESSINGS.

 

1. There shall be showers of blessing:

This is the promise of love;

There shall be seasons refreshing,

Sent from the Savior above.

 

Refrain:

Showers of blessing,

Showers of blessing we need:

Mercy-drops round us are falling,

But for the showers we plead.

 

2. There shall be showers of blessing,

Precious reviving again;

Over the hills and the valleys,

Sound of abundance of rain.

 

3. There shall be showers of blessing;

Send them upon us, O Lord;

Grant to us now a refreshing,

Come, and now honor Thy Word.

 

4. There shall be showers of blessing:

Oh, that today they might fall,

Now as to God we’re confessing,

Now as on Jesus we call!

 

5. There shall be showers of blessing,

If we but trust and obey;

There shall be seasons refreshing,

If we let God have His way.

Open Heavens Daily Devotional by Pastor E.A. Adeboye

 OPEN HEAVENS DAILY DEVOTIONAL

  

DATE:   THURSDAY 22ND APRIL 2021.

  

THEME:  PECULIAR GENERATION.

  

MEMORISE:

Behold, what manner of love the Father hath bestowed upon us, that we should be called the sons of God: therefore the world knoweth us not, because it knew him not 1 1 John 3:1

 

 READ:  1 Peter 2:9-10

 9 But ye are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, an holy nation, a peculiar people; that ye should shew forth the praises of him who hath called you out of darkness into his marvellous light;

 

10 Which in time past were not a people, but are now the people of God: which had not obtained mercy, but now have obtained mercy.

  

MESSAGE:

In 1 John 3:2, John the Beloved could pondering on how privileged we are as believers to be called children of God. Apostle Peter explained the glorious implication of this in 1 Peter 2:9-10:  

 

"But ye are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, an holy nation, a peculiar people: that ye should shew forth the praises of him who hath called you out of darkness into his marvellous light; Which in time past were not a people, but are now the people of God: which had not obtained mercy, but nowhave obtained mercy."

 

As believers, we are a peculiar generation - that is the generation of people who have given themselves to seeking God (Psalm24:1-6). A peculiar generation refer, to those who have obtained mercy and thus, have become solution providers and barrier breakers. They are unstoppable. Joseph belonged to this kind of generation; he would not compromise godliness and perfect loyalty to God and man as we see in Genesis 39:7-9.

  

The generation of solution providers like Daniel, Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego was also a peculiar one (Daniel 2:17-19). If you want to belong to this generation, you must be ready to seek the Lord even the midst of ungodly people (2 Corinthians 6:17). Today, we see people who treat the Bible as outdated literature: they do not see homosexuality, witchcraft sorcery as ungodly. Some of these people even make light of Christ's teachings.  Beloved if you belong to this peculiar generation, you must dissociate yourself from such people.

 

Sometimes though, you may experience marginalization. The good thing is that the members of the peculiar generation who remain undeterred, are always victorious in the end. This because God already assures them of victory as we see in Number 21:21.

 

I encourage you to be a member of this peculiar generation of people seeking God actively at a time like this, when it is appearing unpopular to live by the principles of the over 2,000year-old Scriptures.


May God bless you as you do so today, in the mighty name of Jesus.

  

PRAYER POINT:

Father, please accept me into the generation of peculiar people that show forth Your praise.

 

 

BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: Matthew 10-11.

 

AUTHOR: PASTOR E. A. ADEBOYE 

 

 HYMN 2:  AMAZING GRACE HOW SWEET THE SOUND.

 

1. Amazing grace! How sweet the sound

That saved a wretch like me!

I once was lost, but now am found;

Was blind, but now I see.

 

2. ’Twas grace that taught my heart to fear,

And grace my fears relieved;

How precious did that grace appear

The hour I first believed.

 

3. Through many dangers, toils, and snares,

I have already come;

’Tis grace hath brought me safe thus far,

And grace will lead me home.

 

4. The Lord has promised good to me,

His Word my hope secures;

He will my Shield and Portion be,

As long as life endures.

 

5. Yea, when this flesh and heart shall fail,

And mortal life shall cease,

I shall possess, within the veil,

A life of joy and peace.

 

6. The earth shall soon dissolve like snow,

The sun forbear to shine;

But God, who called me here below,

Will be forever mine.

 

7. When we’ve been there ten thousand years,

Bright shining as the sun,

We’ve no less days to sing God’s praise

Than when we’d first begun.

EXERCISING SPIRITUAL AUTHORITY

Open Heavens Daily Devotional by Pastor E.A. Adeboye

 OPEN HEAVENS DAILY DEVOTIONAL

  

DATE:   WEDNESDAY 21ST APRIL 2021.

  

THEME: EXERCISING SPIRITUAL AUTHORITY.

  

MEMORISE:


Behold, I give unto you power to tread on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy: and nothing shall by any means hurt you.                                                          

Luke 10:19

 

 

READ:  Acts 13:8-12

 

8 But Elymas the sorcerer (for so is his name by interpretation) withstood them, seeking to turn away the deputy from the faith.

 

9 Then Saul, (who also is called Paul,) filled with the Holy Ghost, set his eyes on him.

 

10 And said, O full of all subtilty and all mischief, thou child of the devil, thou enemy of all righteousness, wilt thou not cease to pervert the right ways of the Lord?

 

11 And now, behold, the hand of the Lord is upon thee, and thou shalt be blind, not seeing the sun for a season. And immediately there fell on him a mist and a darkness; and he went about seeking some to lead him by the hand.

 

12 Then the deputy, when he saw what was done, believed, being astonished at the doctrine of the Lord.

 

 

 MESSAGE:

It is one thing to know that you have authority and another to exercise it. In the Bible of today, we see Paul exercising spiritual authority over an agent of the devil. Had he not known his authority in Christ, this sorcerer would have frustrated his preaching. God is not pleased when His children refuse to exercise the authority, He has given them. We see this in Exodus 14:15-16, when God said to Moses:


 "……wherefore criest thou unto me? speak unto the children of Israel, that they go forward: But lift thou up thy rod, and stretch out thine hand over the sea, and divide it: and the children of Israel shall go on dry ground through the midst of the sea."

  

Moses used the authority he had and that put an end to the bondage of the children of Israel. The truth however is that you cannot exercise the spiritual authority you do not possess. If you attempt to, you would end up spiritually wounded like the seven sons of Sceva in Acts 19:14-16.

 

How can you enjoy this spiritual authority?

  

First, you must establish a relationship with the One who has the highest spiritual authority - Jesus Christ.

Mark 3:14-15 says:

“And he ordained twelve, that they should be with him, and that he might send them forth to preach, And to have power to heal sickness, and to cast out devils:”

  

Secondly, you must play by the rules. An adage says nothing good goes for nothing. Once, the disciples wondered why they could not exercise spiritual authority. Jesus told them that they had to first give themselves to prayer and fasting (Mark 9:29). Thirdly, identify and believe genuine ministers on whom God has deposited His authority and obey the word of God that comes through them. You too would then begin to enjoy spiritual authority according to 2 Chronicles 20:20. A simple "God bless you" from a man with spiritual authority can open the door to tremendous blessings in your life. This is why I wonder why people still ask me to pray for them after I have authoritatively pronounced "God bless you" on them. I say to you today: God bless you.       

 

 KEY POINT:

 You will begin to exercise spiritual authority when you establish a relationship with God, study His word and have faith in Him.

 

 BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: Matthew 7-9.

 

 AUTHOR: PASTOR E. A. ADEBOYE 

  

HYMN 4:  CONQUERORS AND OVERCOMERS NOW ARE WE.

 

1 Conquerors and overcomers now are we,

Thro’ the precious blood of Christ we've victory,

If the Lord be for us, we can never fail;

Nothing 'gainst his mighty pow'r can e'er prevail.

 

Refrain:

Conquerors are we, thro’ the blood, thro’ the blood;

God will give us victory, thro’ the blood, thro’ the blood,

Thro’ the Lamb for sinners slain,

Yet who lives and reigns again,

More than conquerors are we,

More than conquerors are we.

 

 

2 In the name of Israel's God we'll onward press,

Overcoming sin and all unrighteousness;

Not to us, but unto him the praise shall be,

For salvation and for blood-bought victory.

 

 

3 Unto him that overcometh shall be giv’n

Here to eat of hidden manna sent from heav'n;

Over yonder he the victor's palm shall bear,

And a robe of white, and golden crown shall wear.
