Open Heavens Daily Devotional by Pastor E.A. Adeboye

OPEN HEAVENS DAILY DEVOTIONAL

  

DATE: THURSDAY 7TH OCTOBER 2021. 


THEME: LOOK AND LIVE.

  

MEMORISE:

And as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, even so must the Son of man be lifted up:

John 3:14


READ: Hebrews 12:1-2

1Wherefore seeing we also are compassed about with so great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which doth so easily beset us, and let us run with patience the race that is set before us,


2 Looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of our faith; who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is set down at the right hand of the throne of God.


MESSAGE:

Human beings have been in search of the way back to their Maker since the fall of the first man. Man was sent out of the Garden of Eden and he became a wanderer, without the peace he once had when he had access to his Maker. This is the primary reason man invented various types of religions, hoping to access God through them.


God however, decided to reveal Himself to people like Enoch, Noah, Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, Moses among others who sincerely loved Him. This category of people received divine help to impact their generations by pointing them in the way to the Almighty God. Jesus said it plainly:

“…..I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me. If ye had known me, ye should have known my Father also: and from henceforth ye know him, and have seen him.” John 14:6-7


When one of Jesus’ disciples asked Him to reveal God the Father to them, Jesus responded by saying “he that hath seen me hath seen the Father” (John 14:9)


Jesus Christ is the perfect revelation of God the Father. It is through His teaching that we know that God is a Spirit and whoever wants to worship Him must worship Him in spirit and in truth (John 4:24). He told us that unless we are born again, we cannot see the Kingdom of God (John 3:3). Religious activities are exercises in futility without this new birth experience. Until Jesus came, even scholars of the Jewish religious laws were ignorant of these principles of God’s Kingdom. Therefore, we must always look unto Him for direction if we want to make it back to the One who created us in His own image. Part of our Bible reading today says “Looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of our faith…..” (Hebrews 12:2).


Also, Jesus Christ Himself said in John 3:14-15:

“And as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, even so must the Son of man be lifted up: That whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have eternal life.”


I encourage you to look unto Jesus for salvation, deliverance, healing, breakthroughs and eternal life. You will experience abundant life here on earth and in eternity with God, in the mighty name of Jesus.


PRAYER POINT:

Father, as I look unto You, perfect everything concerning me now and forever, in Jesus’ name.

DATE: WEDNESDAY 6TH OCTOBER 2021. 


THEME: PRACTICAL GRATITUDE.

  

MEMORISE:

And David said unto Michal, It was before the LORD, which chose me before thy father, and before all his house, to appoint me ruler over the people of the LORD, over Israel: therefore will I play before the LORD.

2 Samuel 6:21


READ: 2 Samuel 6:14-22

14 And David danced before the LORD with all his might; and David was girded with a linen ephod.


15 So David and all the house of Israel brought up the ark of the LORD with shouting, and with the sound of the trumpet.


16 And as the ark of the LORD came into the city of David, Michal Saul's daughter looked through a window, and saw king David leaping and dancing before the LORD; and she despised him in her heart.


17 And they brought in the ark of the LORD, and set it in his place, in the midst of the tabernacle that David had pitched for it: and David offered burnt offerings and peace offerings before the LORD.


18 And as soon as David had made an end of offering burnt offerings and peace offerings, he blessed the people in the name of the LORD of hosts.


19 And he dealt among all the people, even among the whole multitude of Israel, as well to the women as men, to every one a cake of bread, and a good piece of flesh, and a flagon of wine. So all the people departed every one to his house.


20 Then David returned to bless his household. And Michal the daughter of Saul came out to meet David, and said, How glorious was the king of Israel to day, who uncovered himself to day in the eyes of the handmaids of his servants, as one of the vain fellows shamelessly uncovereth himself!


21 And David said unto Michal, It was before the LORD, which chose me before thy father, and before all his house, to appoint me ruler over the people of the LORD, over Israel: therefore will I play before the LORD.


22 And I will yet be more vile than thus, and will be base in mine own sight: and of the maidservants which thou hast spoken of, of them shall I be had in honour.


MESSAGE:

We must consider practical ways of saying ‘Thank you’ to the Lord. When you are truly grateful to someone. It will be difficult to hide it. Your gratitude will be evident in everything you do and this truth is confirmed in today’s Bible reading. When David considered how he had been surviving both seen and unseen battles of life, he could not help dancing and leaping for his God.


The Almighty God has kept us alive to date, and like David, we must practically demonstrate our gratitude through dancing and offering of heartfelt praises to Him. For the preservation of our lives alone, we must bless the Lord. In Psalm 144:1, the Psalmist blesses the Lord for teaching his hands to war and directing his fingers to fight right. We must realize that not all fighters win the battles of life. This is what made David write:

“Bless the LORD, O my soul……Who redeemeth thy life from destruction……” Psalm 103:4


Considering the numerous battles David fought in His lifetime, particularly against King Saul and his own son- Absalom who staged a coup against him, one should know that but for God, David would have died a premature death. This is why he described God’s benevolence as “lovingkindness” and “tender mercies”. Oh, how I wish we all would appreciate God’s kindness as much as David did. Moreover, David recognized that the mercies of God to him were of tender types- not one but many. Little wonder that in our Bible reading of today, he literally praised the Lord to the consternation of his wife who despised him for dancing passionately for the Lord.


Apparently, Michal had never seen her father- the former king praise God in that manner before so it was strange to her. Little wonder God replaced him with David, who would genuinely praise and worship Him.


A practical application of a heart of gratitude brings to mind the manifold blessings of God, it leads to genuine thanksgiving and appreciation of all the miracles and wonders of God that we receive daily. Let somebody shout Hallelujah!


ACTION POINT:

Take a minimum of fifteen munities to thank God for His goodness and mercies over your life and those of your loved ones.

BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: 2 Samuel 20-24.

 

AUTHOR: PASTOR E. A. ADEBOYE 


HYMN 20:   PRAISE TO THE LORD ALMIGHTY.

1. Praise to the Lord, the Almighty, the King of creation!

O my soul, praise Him, for He is thy health and salvation!

All ye who hear, now to His temple draw near;

Praise Him in glad adoration.


2. Praise to the Lord, who o’er all things so wondrously reigneth,

Shelters thee under His wings, yea, so gently sustaineth!

Hast thou not seen how thy desires e’er have been

Granted in what He ordaineth?


3. Praise to the Lord, who doth prosper thy work and defend thee;

Surely His goodness and mercy here daily attend thee;

Ponder anew what the Almighty can do,

If with His love He befriend thee.


4. Praise to the Lord, who, when tempests their warfare are waging,

Who, when the elements madly around thee are raging,

Biddeth them cease, turneth their fury to peace,

Whirlwinds and waters assuaging.


5. Praise to the Lord, who, when darkness of sin is abounding,

Who, when the godless do triumph, all virtue confounding,

Sheddeth His light, chaseth the horrors of night,

Saints with His mercy surrounding.


6. Praise to the Lord, oh, let all that is in me adore Him!

All that hath life and breath, come now with praises before Him;

Let the Amen sound from His people again,

Gladly for aye we adore Him.

DATE: TUESDAY 5TH OCTOBER 2021. 


THEME: COUNTING YOUR BLESSINGS.

  

MEMORISE:

Praise the LORD; for the LORD is good: sing praises unto his name; for it is pleasant.

Psalm 135:3


READ: Psalm 103:1-5

1 Bless the LORD, O my soul: and all that is within me, bless his holy name.


2 Bless the LORD, O my soul, and forget not all his benefits:


3 Who forgiveth all thine iniquities; who healeth all thy diseases;


4 Who redeemeth thy life from destruction; who crowneth thee with lovingkindness and tender mercies;


5 Who satisfieth thy mouth with good things; so that thy youth is renewed like the eagle's.


MESSAGE:

Ingratitude is dangerous, particularly when it is directly shown against the Almighty God. There are many things we enjoy from God’s benevolence, but we often take them for granted. At a point when David seemed to be forgetful of the goodness of the Lord, he decided to preach to his soul, according to the Bible reading of today.

“ Bless the LORD, O my soul: and all that is within me, bless his holy name. Bless the LORD, O my soul, and forget not all his benefits:” Psalm 103:1-2


In today’s text, David took some time to list the blessing of God upon his life so that he would not overlook any of them. The first thing he mentioned is the benefit of forgiveness he enjoyed from the Holy One of Israel. One wonders if modern day Christians appreciate the blessing of forgiveness like David did.


Another blessing David listed in his collections of God’s benefits is divine healing. How often do we take time to really appreciate God for our health and wellbeing? How well do we thank Him whenever He heals us? There are numerous sickness and diseases for which there is no known cure. Do we even remember to thank God for medication that works when we take it?


May the Lord grant you divine health, which is far superior to healing, in the mighty name of Jesus. However, we must remember the words of the Lord to the Syrophoenician woman:

“…..it is not meet to take the children's bread, and to cast it unto the dogs.” Mark 7:27


In other words, before we can have access to divine health or at least divine healing- which are some of the benefits of being part of God’s kingdom, we must first become born again (John 3:3). For those of us who are children of God, we must not take God’s grace and blessings for granted because we cannot remain in sin and except grace to abound (Romans 6:1). Let us show our appreciation by leaving for Him alone and by glorifying Him in our bodies as Paul enjoined us in Romans 12:1-2. Furthermore, the Bible in Deuteronomy 6:12 urges us not to forget all what the Lord has done for us.


Make a habit of counting your blessings and testifying to God’s goodness at all times.


ACTION POINT:

Take time to make a list of all God’s blessings upon your life and give Him thanks from the bottom of your heart for each of them

BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: 2 Samuel 15-19.

 

AUTHOR: PASTOR E. A. ADEBOYE 


HYMN 31:   NOW THANK WE ALL OUR GOD.

1. Now thank we all our God, with heart and hands and voices,

Who wondrous things has done, in Whom this world rejoices;

Who from our mothers’ arms has blessed us on our way

With countless gifts of love, and still is ours today.


2. Oh, may this bounteous God through all our life be near us,

With ever joyful hearts and blessed peace to cheer us;

And keep us in His grace, and guide us when perplexed;

And guard us through all ills in this world, till the next!


3. All praise and thanks to God the Father now be given,

The Son, and Him Who reigns with Them in highest Heaven—

The one eternal God, Whom earth and Heav’n adore;

For thus it was, is now, and shall be evermore.

Open Heavens Daily Devotional by Pastor E.A. Adeboye

OPEN HEAVENS DAILY DEVOTIONAL.


DATE: MONDAY 4TH OCTOBER, 2021.


THEME: KEEP YOUR HEART PURE.


MEMORIZE:

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

Proverbs 4:23


BIBLE READING: PROVERBS 4:20-23

20. My son, attend to my words; incline thine ear unto my sayings.


21. Let them not depart from thine eyes; keep them in the midst of thine heart.


22. For they are life unto those that find them, and health to all their flesh.


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


MESSAGE

The heart is one of the most vital organs required for mans continued existence both physically and spiritually.


Physically, the heart is required to sustain human existence and spiritually, it is also required to stay alive in the Lord.


A popular adage says The heart of the matter is the matter of the heart, meaning that the core issues of life are matters of the heart. This is exactly what our memory verse is saying.


The things that mould life come from the heart. The Bible says the heart is evil deceitful, desperately wicked and who can know it? (Jeremiah 17:9).


At conversion – when a person becomes born again, the heart is impacted and made receptive to the word of God.


It, therefore, becomes a dwelling place for the word of God, so that it can be transformed to bring forth virtues, victories and so on.


For this to occur, however, Gods children must work constantly on their minds through studying, meditating on and memorising the word of God.


Basically, a heart would be found in one of these four states: (a) the roadside state (b) the stony state (c) the thorny state (d) the good-soil state (Matthew 13:1-23).


The state of an individuals heart is however determined by the fellow. The heart is the seat of knowledge but until knowledge is stored in it, the owner (of the heart) cannot benefit from it.


Please ask yourself "What kind of knowledge do I receive and retain in my heart?"


lt is also important to note that the mouth is the outlet to the heart (Matthew 12:34).


Hence, a good relationship between the heart and the mouth determines the course of a mans life - whether good or bad. In other words, the issues that mould a life stem from the heart through the mouth.


Indeed, the state of the heart presents the true identity of a person. It is the first place God looks at before relating with man.


We see this clearly in 1 Samuel 16:7 where God said:


“…the Lord seeth not as man seeth; for man looketh on the outward appearance, but the Lord looketh on the heart.”


What would God see if He were to look into your heart today?


ACTION POINT:

Examine your heart diligently today through the lens of Philippians 4:8 and pray for God's help.

BIBLE READING IN ONE YEAR:

2 SAMUEL 10-14 


HYMN 21: ROCK OF AGES CLEFT FOR ME.


1. Rock of Ages, cleft for me,

Let me hide myself in Thee!

Let the water and the blood,

From Thy riven side which flowed,

Be of sin the double cure;

Cleanse me from its guilt and power.


2. Not the labours of my hands,

Can fulfill Thy law’s demands;

Could my zeal no respite know,

Could my tears for ever flow,

All for sin could not atone,

Thou must save and Thou alone.


3. 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, Saviour, or I die.


4. While I draw this fleeting breath,

When my eyelids close in death,

When I soar to worlds unknown,

See Thee on Thy judgement throne,

Rock of Ages, cleft for me,

Let me hide myself in Thee.
