Open Heavens Prayer Points

PRAYER POINTS ON TODAY'S OPEN HEAVENS: 


(Thursday, December 16, 2021) 


CHALLENGES ARE STEPPING STONES. 


Special Note:


These prayer points are not written by Pastor E. A. Adeboye, but by one of his numerous disciples, of Christ, who was inspired and mandated by the Holy Spirit, effective, January 1st, 2015, to start writing these prayer points, based on the Open Heavens Daily Devotional, authored by Pastor E. A. Adeboye.


Some of the prayer points are deep spiritually and may not be understood by carnal minds.


If you want to be blessed from these prayer points, you must first, surrender Your life, to the Lord Jesus Christ, Himself, by saying this prayer:


“Lord Jesus, I come to You with a deeply repentant heart, please, forgive me all my sins. I surrender my life to you, today, and, I accept You, as my personal Lord and Saviour. Please, come into my life and save my soul from eternal destruction in hell fire. In Jesus' name, I pray.”


Prayer Points: 


1.I worship and adore You, my Father, the Author and the finisher of my faith; for as the heaven is far from the earth, so are Your ways far from the ways of men.


2.Thank You, Father, for Your thoughts for me, which are thoughts of good and not evil, in order to bring me to a glorious and expected end, that You have prepared for me.


3.Father, in anyway I have fallen short of your glory, please, have mercy and forgive me; let Your mercy prevail over any judgement of sin in my life, in Jesus' name.


4.Father, please, let all things continue to work together for my good, as I place my trust and confidence in You, in Jesus' name.


5.Father, let every stubborn pursuer of my life and destiny be drowned in the red sea of his own making, in Jesus' name.


6.Father, let every tongue that rises against me in judgement be condemned and silenced, till eternity, in Jesus' name.


7.Father, let every weapon of wickedness, oppression and persecution, fashioned against me, backfire, upon those that fashioned them, in Jesus' name.


8.Father, let every challenge, hindrance and opposition,  from the pit of hell, against my life, ministry and family, be a stepping stone to my breakthroughs, in Jesus' name.


9.Father, let every hindering mountain in my life, give way, today, as I move into my destiny, in Jesus' name.


10.Father, bless your son, Pastor Enoch Adejare Adeboye, and let all things continue to work together for his good, in Jesus' name.


11.Father, bless Your son that You have been using to prepare these prayer points, beyond measures, and all those who have been rebroadcasting them, in Jesus' name.


12.Father, let every challenge, hindrance and obstacle of getting these prayer points across to Your children, timely, and on daily basis be removed, in Jesus' name.


13.Your Personal petitions.

( Philippians 4:6)

14.In Jesus' name I pray.

(John 14:13-14; 15:16)

15.Thank you Father for answered prayers.

(1 Thessalonians 5:18).

Open Heavens Daily Devotional by Pastor E.A. Adeboye

OPEN HEAVENS DAILY DEVOTIONAL

 

DATE:   THURSDAY 16TH DECEMBER 2021.

 

THEME:  CHALLENGES ARE STEPPING STONES.

 

MEMORISE:

And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose.                                

Romans 8:28

 

READ:  Philippians 1:12-21.

12 But I would ye should understand, brethren, that the things which happened unto me have fallen out rather unto the furtherance of the gospel;

 

13 So that my bonds in Christ are manifest in all the palace, and in all other places;

 

14 And many of the brethren in the Lord, waxing confident by my bonds, are much more bold to speak the word without fear.

 

15 Some indeed preach Christ even of envy and strife; and some also of good will:

 

16 The one preach Christ of contention, not sincerely, supposing to add affliction to my bonds:

 

17 But the other of love, knowing that I am set for the defence of the gospel.

 

18 What then? notwithstanding, every way, whether in pretence, or in truth, Christ is preached; and I therein do rejoice, yea, and will rejoice.

 

19 For I know that this shall turn to my salvation through your prayer, and the supply of the Spirit of Jesus Christ,

 

20 According to my earnest expectation and my hope, that in nothing I shall be ashamed, but that with all boldness, as always, so now also Christ shall be magnified in my body, whether it be by life, or by death.

 

21 For to me to live is Christ, and to die is gain.

 

MESSAGE:

Whereas man does not have a way of getting solutions to his problems, God has uncountable ways of solving all of them. We have the assurance that God is able to bring good out of every problem of our life. Our memory verse today clearly tells us that all things have been designed to work together for the good of those who love God and are aligned with His purpose.

 

It takes the eye of faith to come to terms with the Scripture above. In chains, Apostle Paul was being moved from one place to another as a criminal under trial. Despite this, he sorts every opportunity to preach the gospel everywhere he went. In Acts 24 & 25, he addressed three different important personalities, namely Felix, Festus and King Agrippa. It was king Agrippa who said to Paul “….Almost thou persuadest me to be a Christian.” (Acts 26:28). Paul then said:

“….I would to God, that not only thou, but also all that hear me this day, were both almost, and altogether such as I am, except these bonds.”       Acts 26:29

 

This is a level all children of God must reach if we would enjoy our walk with God. This same truth helped Joseph to stay true to his God even in the midst of his trials in Potiphar’s house and wrongful imprisonment (Genesis 39). Even when he had the opportunity to take his revenge upon his brothers after his father’s passing, he told them:

“……Fear not: for am I in the place of God? But as for you, ye thought evil against me; but God meant it unto good, to bring to pass, as it is this day, to save much people alive.”                                                                                                  Genesis 50:19-20

 

In all these, we must learn that challenges cannot be a hinderance if God is with us; rather, they would be stepping stones to the glorious and expected end God has prepared for us.

 

I pray that all hinderances on your way to success will become stepping stones to your breakthrough, in Jesus’ name. you are more than a conqueror!

 

PRAYER POINT:

Father, I command all hindering mountains in my life to give way today as I move into my destiny, in Jesus’ name.

BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: Jeremiah 1-6.

  

AUTHOR: PASTOR E. A. ADEBOYE 

 

HYMN 10:  I’M PRESSING ON THE UPWARD WAY.

I’m pressing on the upward way,

New heights I’m gaining every day;

Still praying as I’m onward bound,

“Lord, plant my feet on higher ground.”


 Refrain:

Lord, lift me up and let me stand,

By faith, on Heaven’s tableland,

A higher plane than I have found;

Lord, plant my feet on higher ground.

 

My heart has no desire to stay

Where doubts arise and fears dismay;

Though some may dwell where those abound,

My prayer, my aim, is higher ground.


I want to live above the world,

Though Satan’s darts at me are hurled;

For faith has caught the joyful sound,

The song of saints on higher ground.


I want to scale the utmost height

And catch a gleam of glory bright;

But still I’ll pray till heav’n I’ve found,

“Lord, plant my feet on higher ground.”

Open Heavens Daily Devotional by Pastor E.A. Adeboye

OPEN HEAVENS DAILY DEVOTIONAL

 

DATE: WEDNESDAY 15TH DECEMBER 2021.

 

THEME: BEWARE OF PROFITEERING.

 

MEMORISE:

A false balance is abomination to the Lord: but a just weight is his delight.                                                                     

Proverbs 11:1

 

READ:  Proverbs 11:1-4.

1A false balance is abomination to the Lord: but a just weight is his delight.

 

2 When pride cometh, then cometh shame: but with the lowly is wisdom.

 

3 The integrity of the upright shall guide them: but the perverseness of transgressors shall destroy them.

 

4 Riches profit not in the day of wrath: but righteousness delivereth from death.

 

MESSAGE:

Profiteering- the act of making excessive and unfair profit usually through illegal means is considered as wickedness before God. Profiteering involves taking undue advantage of others. You may not know the havoc you are wreaking on humanity until God opens your eyes to see that both the services and goods you are charging exorbitantly for are not affordable by those who need them for survival. Many people profiteer because they want to make excessive profits and enrich themselves with worldly possessions. They have lost sight of Proverbs 13:11 which says:

“Wealth gotten by vanity shall be diminished: but he that gathereth by labour shall increase.”

 

Proverbs 13:22 also says “….the wealth of the sinner is laid up for the just.”

 

It is tantamount to slavery when people work for you and you deny them their wages or tactically delay their pay. God will punish such people because they have been unfaithful. James 5:4 says:

“the hire of the labourers who have reaped down your fields, which is of you kept back by fraud, crieth: and the cries of them which have reaped are entered into the ears of the Lord of sabaoth.”

 

The Scripture above expresses the mind of God about profiteering. Consider the lives of those who have gathered wealth illegally just to leave an inheritance for their children. In many cases, even in their lifetime, their children sell property bought with these looted funds to the children of those they have defrauded. We have heard the stories of children of laborers purchasing the property of their fathers’ masters when the Lord of Sabaoth caused wealth to change hands. Truly, the treasures of wickedness will never bring profit (Proverbs 10:2).

 

Beloved, remember the words of our Lord Jesus in Luke 12:15 and be wise. Wealth does not guarantee satisfaction, joy, peace and security. It is foolishness to run after wealth mindlessly. Godliness with contentment is what brings great gain (1 Timothy 6:6).

 

PRAYER POINT:

Father, please deliver my soul from greed. Let me never chase after uncertain riches, in the mighty name of Jesus.

BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: 2 Peter.

 

AUTHOR: PASTOR E. A. ADEBOYE 

 

HYMN 14:  JESUS MY LORD, 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?

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 fervant praise

Thy goodness, Jesus, would I sing.

Sweet Sacrament, we thee adore;

Oh, make us love thee more and more.

Oh, make us love thee more and more.


Thy Body, Soul, and Godhead, all,

O mystery of love divine.

I cannot compass all I have,

For all thou hast and art are mine.

Sweet Sacrament, we thee adore;

Oh, make us love thee more and more.

Oh, make us love thee more and more.

Open Heavens Daily Devotional by Pastor E A. Adeboye

OPEN HEAVENS DAILY DEVOTIONAL

 

DATE: TUESDAY 14TH DECEMBER 2021.

 

THEME: ALL YOUR HEART, SOUL, AND MIND.

 

MEMORISE:

Jesus said unto him, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind.                        

Matthew 22:37 

 

READ:  Matthew 22:35-38.

35 Then one of them, which was a lawyer, asked him a question, tempting him, and saying,

 

36 Master, which is the great commandment in the law?

 

37 Jesus said unto him, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind.

 

38 This is the first and great commandment.

 

MESSAGE:

God wants you to be totally His. The Lord says in Exodus 20:3 “Thou shalt have no other gods before me.” There should be nothing standing between you and God. You shouldn’t also allow anyone, or anything take His place in your life. God must be your all in all.

 

Beloved, you cannot claim to truly love God with all your heart, soul, and mind if anyone or anything is more important than Him in your life. Jesus Christ described our memory verse today as the “first and great commandment” (Matthew 22:38). It would hence amount to disobedience if you do not fulfil this commandment and every transgression of God’s commandment is sin (1 John 3:4). This then means that loving God with all our heart, soul and mind is not optional but compulsory for all His children.

 

You must therefore not set your heart on material things of this life if you would please God. The bible says:

“But they that will be rich fall into temptation and a snare, and into many foolish and hurtful lusts, which drown men in destruction and perdition. For the love of money is the root of all evil: which while some coveted after, they have erred from the faith, and pierced themselves through with many sorrows.”                                                                                                      1 Timothy 6:9-10

 

The Lord Jesus Christ further said:

“No man can serve two masters: for either he will hate the one, and love the other; or else he will hold to the one, and despise the other. Ye cannot serve God and mammon.”                                                   Matthew 6:24

 

Acknowledge the supremacy and excellency of the Almighty God- the Lord of the heavens and the earth at all times and in all you do.

 

Beloved, God desires that you should set your heart, soul and mind on Him alone. This is the only way to be truly godly and to serve Him acceptably. Every form of worldliness will eventually produce sin, therefore, godliness and commitment must become your watchword (1 Timothy 6:6).

 

May your service be acceptable to Him from today in Jesus’ name.

 

ACTION POINT:

Determine to love God with all your heart, all your soul, and all your mind from today.
