THEME: QUALIFIED FOR A MIRACLE?

MEMORISE:

Then Jesus answered and said unto her, O woman, great is thy faith: be it unto thee even as thou wilt. And her daughter was made whole from that very hour.

Matthew 15:28

READ:

Matthew 15:22-28

22 And, behold, a woman of Canaan came out of the same coasts, and cried unto him, saying, Have mercy on me, O Lord, thou son of David; my daughter is grievously vexed with a devil.

23 But he answered her not a word. And his disciples came and besought him, saying, Send her away; for she crieth after us.

24 But he answered and said, I am not sent but unto the lost sheep of the house of Israel.

25 Then came she and worshipped him, saying, Lord, help me.

26 But he answered and said, It is not meet to take the children's bread, and to cast it to dogs.

27 And she said, Truth, Lord: yet the dogs eat of the crumbs which fall from their masters' table.

28 Then Jesus answered and said unto her, O woman, great is thy faith: be it unto thee even as thou wilt. And her daughter was made whole from that very hour.

MESSAGE:

The simple explanation for a miracle is that it is a supernatural event that does not follow the laws of nature, to favour a person. To be a candidate for a miracle, the first qualification is that such a fellow must be a carrier of the Living God. He or she must be a child of God. God created man in His own image. The Bible says in Genesis 1:27:

So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them.

When the carrier of God’s image - man, got entangled with sin, he needed to be restored and the only One who could do this was God Himself. God achieved the restoration through His only begotten Son Jesus Christ. For us to be partakers of this miracle of redemption, we must believe Him to access His power (John 1:11-12). Beloved, you simply cannot partake of the miraculous without belonging to the Miracle-Worker!

Do you desire a miracle? You must be born again. Why? Jesus Christ said it clearly that miracles are children’s bread; you can’t have them until you become a child of God (Matthew 15:22-28). My prayer is that you will give your life over to the Miracle-Worker if you haven’t done that already, so that you too can begin to experience miracles from now. If you are already a child of God, then you are qualified for a miracle, as long as you are living by His word.

Another thing that can qualify you for a miracle is faith. Jesus commended the faith of the woman and she got what she needed. I encourage you to come to God in faith today and those intimidating situations in your life shall become history in Jesus’ name. Has the doctor said the baby in that your womb is dead and must be evacuated? I speak to that baby now to receive the life of God, in Jesus’ name. That part of your body that is suffering from paralysis must receive the life of God now, in the mighty name of Jesus. I stand by the word of God in Romans 8:11 and declare “…if the Spirit of him that raised up Jesus from the dead dwell in you, he that raised up Christ from the dead shall also quicken your mortal bodies by his Spirit that dwelleth in you.” Receive your miracle now, in the mighty name of Jesus!

PRAYER POINT:

Father, I believe You are the Miracle-Working God. Please give me a miracle today, in the mighty name of Jesus.

HYMN 7

HAVE YOU BEEN TO JESUS

1. Have you been to Jesus for the cleansing power?

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?

Chorus:

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?

2. Are you walking daily by the Saviour’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?

[Chorus]

3. 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?

[Chorus]

4. 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,

O be washed in the blood of the Lamb!

[Chorus]

Open Heavens Daily Devotional by Pastor E.A. Adeboye

OPEN HEAVENS DAILY DEVOTIONAL

  

DATE: WEDNESDAY 25TH AUGUST 2021. 

THEME: THE WAY, THE TRUTH AND THE LIFE.

  

MEMORISE:

Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me. John 14:6

READ: John 14:1-6

1Let not your heart be troubled: ye believe in God, believe also in me.

2 In my Father's house are many mansions: if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you.

3 And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again, and receive you unto myself; that where I am, there ye may be also.

4 And whither I go ye know, and the way ye know.

5 Thomas saith unto him, Lord, we know not whither thou goest; and how can we know the way?

6 Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.

MESSAGE:

People who believe in many gods are called polytheists. The problem with their religious belief is that it does not actually point them to the very God who created them. All thanks to God, the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who through this very Son revealed Himself to us as the true Living God. The Bible says in Mark 12:29-30:

“And Jesus answered him, The first of all the commandments is, Hear, O Israel; The Lord our God is one Lord: And thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind, and with all thy strength: this is the first commandment.”

There are however, some people who practice other religions that believe there is only one God. Such people are called monotheists. The problem with this category of people however, is that they do not know the genuine way to this One and Oly God of the universe. We give thanks to Jesus Christ, the Son of the Living God who came to show us the way, according to the memory verse of today.

Some churchgoers however, believe that Jesus Christ is the way, but do not see Him as the Truth. This is the primary reason many of them disagree with the relevance of God’s requirements for holy living as contained in the Bible.

To some other Christians, Jesus’ life is not meant for the contemporary world.

We can see where the problem lie in the Church and by extension, the world, since the Church is the light of the world. If the light is now becoming darkness, the world is in serious trouble. May the light of the Church shine brighter again in Jesus’ name.

Beloved, be not deceived: Jesus Christ is the Way- the only Way for that matter. He is the Truth- that which can set you free, and the only source of eternal life. Give your life to Him today and if you have already done so, please stay away from sin.

Be careful not to align yourself with people who claim that living in holiness is not possible, saying that God’s demand for holiness as contained in the Bible is not realistic.

Trust in the Lord, lean on the truth and you will enjoy eternal life from the Life Himself, in the mighty name of Jesus.

PRAYER POINT:

Father, please don’t ever let me depart from You, the Way, the Truth and the Life.

BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: Psalm 128-130.

 

AUTHOR: PASTOR E. A. ADEBOYE 

  

HYMN 14:   MY JESUS, MY GOD, MY ALL.

Jesus, my Lord, my God, my all!

How can I love Thee as I ought?

And how revere this wondrous gift,

So far surpassing hope or thought?

Refrain:

Sweet Sacrament, we Thee adore!

Oh, make us love Thee more and more.

Oh, make us love Thee more and more.

Had I but Mary's sinless heart

To love Thee with, my dearest King,

Oh, with what bursts of fervent praise,

Thy goodness, Jesus, would I sing!

Oh, see upon the altar placed,

The Victim of divinest love!

Let all the earth below adore,

And join the s of heaven above.

OPEN HEAVENS DAILY DEVOTIONAL

 

DATE:   TUESDAY 24th AUGUST 2021.

 

THEME:  WHEN YOU NEED A REVIVAL

MEMORISE:

For godly sorrow worketh repentance to salvation not to be repented of: but the sorrow of the world worketh death. 

2 Corinthians 7:10

READ:  PSALMS 51:1-12

1. Have mercy upon me, O God, according to thy lovingkindness: according unto the multitude of thy tender mercies blot out my transgressions.

2. Wash me throughly from mine iniquity, and cleanse me from my sin.

3. For I acknowledge my transgressions: and my sin is ever before me.

4. Against thee, thee only, have I sinned, and done this evil in thy sight: that thou mightest be justified when thou speakest, and be clear when thou judgest.

5. Behold, I was shapen in iniquity; and in sin did my mother conceive me.

6. Behold, thou desirest truth in the inward parts: and in the hidden part thou shalt make me to know wisdom.

7. Purge me with hyssop, and I shall be clean: wash me, and I shall be whiter than snow.

8. Make me to hear joy and gladness; that the bones which thou hast broken may rejoice.

9. Hide thy face from my sins, and blot out all mine iniquities.

10. Create in me a clean heart, O God; and renew aright spirit within me.

11. Cast me not away from thy presence; and take not thy holy spirit from me.

12. Restore unto me the joy of thy salvation; and uphold me with thy free spirit.

 MESSAGE:

Many people are in need of revival, yet have not been able to access it because of pride.

The need for revival which brings about spiritual restoration comes on the heels of spiritual decay.

A lot of things could be responsible for spiritual decay. One of it is disobedience.

The Bible says that when Adam and Eve disobeyed God, they lost their fellowship with Him.

Before the fall, the Bible says the man and his wife were naked, but not ashamed (Genesis 2:25 ).

After the fall however, the Bible says that their eyes were opened enlightened (Genesis 3:7-8 ), and they became ashamed.

There are many lessons we can learn from the above cited Scripture.

One, spiritual decay leads to the exposure of nakedness and shame. Shame is the opposite of glory.

Spiritual decay is the cause of all kinds of sin; it is what accounts for many women dressing in revealing clothes, as they strive to attract men, luring them into sexual immorality.

In the same vein, many men engage in sexual immorality both before and even in the course of their marriages.

You will never behave in such a way when the glory of God is upon you.

Indeed, the Bible says: “The hoary head is a crown of glory, if it be found in the way of righteousness.” “Proverbs 16:31”

When someone loses his or her spirituality, the voice of the Lord becomes fearsome to the fellow. He or she becomes resistant to the word of the Lord.

At the end of the day, such people run from their Bible-believing Church to so-called churches where deceit is the order of the day. Such people need spiritual restoration.

The problem with such people, however, is their pride which will not allow them to follow Davids example in his response to the message from God through prophet Nathan in 2 Samuel 12:1-13 .

David acknowledged his sins and God forgave and restored him. The product of this story is found in the text of today which reads in part:

“Cast me not away from thy presence; and take not thy holy spirit from me. Restore unto me the joy of thy salvation; and uphold me with thy free spirit.” “Psalm 51:11-12”

Beloved, are you spiritually cold?, Have you lost some of the spiritual gifts that make you radiate the glory of the Lord?.

All you need is to call on Jesus Christ with every sense of humility. He will restore you speedily.

PRAYER POINT:

Father, please forgive me of the sins that have taken away the joy of my salvation. Restore to me Your Spirit of liberty, in the mighty name of Jesus.

Open Heavens Daily Devotional by Pastor E.A. Adeboye

OPEN HEAVENS DAILY DEVOTIONAL.

DATE: MONDAY 23RD AUGUST, 2021.

THEME: COMPLETE RESTORATION.

MEMORISE:

“After that he put his hands again upon his eyes, and made him look up: and he was restored, and saw every man clearly.”

(Mark 8:25)

READ: Acts 3:1-8 (KJV)

1. Now Peter and John went up together into the temple at the hour of prayer, being the ninth hour.

2. And a certain man lame from his mother’s womb was carried, whom they laid daily at the gate of the temple which is called Beautiful, to ask alms of them that entered into the temple;

3. Who seeing Peter and John about to go into the temple asked an alms.

4. And Peter, fastening his eyes upon him with John, said, Look on us.

5. And he gave heed unto them, expecting to receive something of them.

6. Then Peter said, Silver and gold have I none; but such as I have give I thee; In the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth rise up and walk.

7. And he took him by the right hand, and lifted him up; and immediately his feet and ankle bones received strength.

8. And he leaping up stood, and walked, and entered with them into the temple, walking, and leaping, and praising God.

MESSAGE:

It is one thing to be restored, it is another to experience complete restoration. Some people are restored halfway- like the nine lepers in Luke 17:12-19.

The only one who received complete restoration was the tenth leper because he returned to give thanks to the Lord. Complete restoration does not allow any backwardness or stagnation.

This is why I always assure those who have received one miracle or another that when they give the testimony of what the Lord has done, it will always be permanent.

A typical example of complete restoration is found in the Bible reading of today. When the lame man at the gate called Beautiful got his healing, it was complete.

First, his feet and ankle bones received strength for the first time in his life. After this, he began to walk, and then to leap – praising God.

May you experience complete restoration of whatever you have lost, in Jesus’ name.

The story in our memory verse of today reveals another typical example of complete restoration.

The lessons in the story from which we took our memory verse are many. One, Jesus will not stop until He has completed whatever miracle He starts.

Two, He always completes His miracle in the life of an individual, as revealed in that story. When the man said he was seeing men like trees, Jesus was not satisfied with such an incomplete miracle; He continued to do what He knew how to do best until it was complete, perfect and delivered.

The Lord will perfect the good work He has started in your life and He will not abandon it until it is complete in Jesus’ name.

You can have complete restoration in your spiritual life if you have missed it one way or the other. You can be born again, sanctified, and baptized in the Holy Ghost.

Your expectation for the complete restoration of your shattered dreams shall not be cut short in Jesus’ name.

I just want to advise you to have an encounter with Jesus Christ – the One who can make all your dreams come true.

You will have testimonies of the complete restoration of your destiny, in the mighty name of Jesus.

PRAYER POINT:

Father, please give me my desired breakthrough and let it be complete, in Jesus’ name.

BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: Psalm 122-124 

HYMN 12 – IN CHRIST ALONE MY HOPE IS FOUND.

1. In Christ alone my hope is found

He is my light, my strength, my song

This Cornerstone, this solid Ground

Firm through the fiercest drought and storm

What heights of love, what depths of peace

When fears are stilled, when strivings cease

My Comforter, my All in All

Here in the love of Christ I stand.

2. In Christ alone! Who took on flesh

Fullness of God in helpless babe

This gift of love and righteousness

Scorned by the ones He came to save

Till on that cross as Jesus died

The wrath of God was satisfied

For every sin on Him was laid

Here in the death of Christ I live.

3. There in the ground His body lay

Light of the world by darkness slain

Then bursting forth in glorious Day

Up from the grave He rose again

And as He stands in victory

Sin’s curse has lost its grip on me

For I am His and He is mine

Bought with the precious blood of Christ.

4. No gift in life, no fear in death

This is the power of Christ in me

From life’s first cry to final breath

Jesus commands my destiny

No power of hell, no scheme of man

Can ever pluck me from His hand

Till He returns or calls me home

Here in the love of Christ I’ll stand.
