Open Heavens Daily Devotional by Pastor E.A. Adeboye

OPEN HEAVENS DAILY DEVOTIONAL

 

DATE: TUESDAY 18TH JANUARY  2022.

 

THEME: LET THERE BE LIGHT II.

 

MEMORISE:

Who his own self bare our sins in his own body on the tree, that we, being dead to sins, should live unto righteousness: by whose stripes ye were healed.                  

1 Peter 2:24

 

READ:   Matthew 9:1-7.

1And he entered into a ship, and passed over, and came into his own city.

 

2 And, behold, they brought to him a man sick of the palsy, lying on a bed: and Jesus seeing their faith said unto the sick of the palsy; Son, be of good cheer; thy sins be forgiven thee.

 

3 And, behold, certain of the scribes said within themselves, This man blasphemeth.

 

4 And Jesus knowing their thoughts said, Wherefore think ye evil in your hearts?

 

5 For whether is easier, to say, Thy sins be forgiven thee; or to say, Arise, and walk?

 

6 But that ye may know that the Son of man hath power on earth to forgive sins, (then saith he to the sick of the palsy,) Arise, take up thy bed, and go unto thine house.

 

7 And he arose, and departed to his house.

 

MESSAGE:

One of the consequences of sin is sickness. When the darkness of sin disappears, sickness flees with it. The words “Let there be light” could mean “Let there be healing” because sickness is a form of darkness. Jesus Christ is the Light, the Remover of sin, as well as the Healer. Our memory verse today says that we are dead to sin and healed by the stripes of Jesus.

 

The story in our Bible text confirms that sin, more often than not, cause sickness in mankind. Thus, once the problem of sin is dealt with, sickness is invariably healed as well. When Jesus saw the man that was sick of the palsy, He knew straightway that his problem was as a result sin. Instead of engaging in an exercise in futility like many ministers of God do today, Jesus went straight to the root cause of the man’s sickness- sin. “Son, be of good cheer, the sins be forgiven thee” Jesus declared. The result is found in the next verse in our our text for today after Jesus had declared him forgiven. Jesus said:

“But that ye may know that the Son of man hath power on earth to forgive sins, (then saith he to the sick of the palsy,) Arise, take up thy bed, and go unto thine house. And he arose, and departed to his house.”                   Matthew 9:6-7

 

Beloved, there are a lot of lessons to learn from today’s reading: One, for ministers of the gospel, we must not waste our time on praying for the sick who are not ready to let go of their sin. Two, for the sick, they must be humble enough to admit their sinful living, confess, forsake and totally repent of the sin. Three, Jesus Christ the Healer is the Forgiver of sins; every man must come to Him for salvation from all calamities, including the darkness of sickness. The assurance is that no matter how hopeless the situation may be, humanly speaking, by His stripes you will be healed. Jut ensure that you have zero tolerance to any spiritual impurity in your body which is the temple of the Almighty God, according to 1 Corinthians 6:19.

 

ACTION POINT:

Purge yourself of all sinful habits o that the light of healing may shine upon you as from today.

BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: EXODUS 2-4..

  

AUTHOR: PASTOR E. A. ADEBOYE 

 

HYMN 5: HAVE YOU BEEN TO JESUS.

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?

 

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,

O be washed in the blood of the Lamb!

Open Heavens Daily Devotional by Pastor E.A. Adeboye

OPEN HEAVENS DAILY DEVOTIONAL

 

DATE: MONDAY 17TH JANUARY  2022.

 

THEME: LET THERE BE LIGHT I.

 

MEMORISE:

And God said, Let there be light: and there was light.            

Genesis 1:3

 

READ:   James 1:17

17 Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, and cometh down from the Father of lights, with whom is no variableness, neither shadow of turning.

 

MESSAGE:

Let there be light “Let the darkness of sin disappear” because sin is terrible form of darkness. No one can possess the pure light except from God, the Father of lights. The reason is that man was sold to the darkness of sin as a result of the fall at Eden. However, God provided salvation for mankind through His only begotten Son Jesus Christ. This is why the Bible says:

“Then spake Jesus again unto them, saying, I am the light of the world: he that followeth me shall not walk in darkness, but shall have the light of life.”      John 8:12

 

The above Scripture simply means that the cure for the darkness of sin is Jesus Christ. Have you been wallowing in the darkness of sin? This new year can make the difference if you will accept Jesus Christ as your savior- believing in salvation by His blood (Matthew 1:21). You may claim to have Jesus as your Savior, but have you surrendered to His Lordship? Give the totality of your life to Him today and allow Him to take charge of everything that concerns you (Matthew 11:28-29).

 

One important thing to do in order to step out of darkness is to confess one’s sins and surrender all to Jesus Christ. The Bible says that if w3e say we have no sin we are just deceiving ourselves (1 John 1:8), but if we will swallow our pride, confess and decide to forsake our sins, god will forgive us- meaning that the light of God will overshadow us.

 

Our sign that indicates we have God’s light in us is when we shine, and we cannot shine with sin dwelling within us. We are only able to shine when Jesus rules over our lives. Jesus is the light and those who live by His standards have his light within them. This is why Jesus Christ instructs genuine disciples to shine the light which they possess (Matthew 5:15).

 

I pray that the light of God will shine upon your life and there shall be no iota of darkness harassing you anymore, in Jesus’ name.

 

PRAYER POINT:

Father, please let Your light shine upon me and deliver me from the power of the darkness of sin in Jesus’ name.

BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: GENESIS 49- Exodus 1.

  

AUTHOR: PASTOR E. A. ADEBOYE 

 

HYMN 9:  I HAVE A MESSAGE FROM THE LORD, HALLELUJAH.

I’ve a message from the Lord, hallelujah!

This message unto you I’ll give,

’Tis recorded in His word, hallelujah!

It is only that you “look and live.”


Refrain:

“Look and live,” my brother, live,

Look to Jesus now, and live;

’Tis recorded in His word, hallelujah!

It is only that you “look and live.”

 

I’ve a message full of love, hallelujah!

A message, O my friend, for you,

’Tis a message from above, hallelujah!

Jesus said it, and I know ’tis true.


Life is offered unto you, hallelujah!

Eternal life thy soul shall have,

If you’ll only look to Him, hallelujah!

Look to Jesus who alone can save.


I will tell you how I came, hallelujah!

To Jesus when He made me whole—

’Twas believing on His name, hallelujah!

I trusted and He saved my soul.

Open Heavens Daily Devotional by Pastor E.A. Adeboye

OPEN HEAVENS DAILY DEVOTIONAL

 

DATE: SUNDAY 16TH JANUARY  2022.

 

THEME: RETURNING TO THE HOME CHURCH MODEL.

 

MEMORISE:

Salute the brethren which are in Laodicea, and Nymphas, and the church which is in his house.                     

Colossians 4:15

 

READ:   Romans 16:3-5.

3 Greet Priscilla and Aquila my helpers in Christ Jesus:

 

4 Who have for my life laid down their own necks: unto whom not only I give thanks, but also all the churches of the Gentiles.

 

5 Likewise greet the church that is in their house. Salute my well-beloved Epaenetus, who is the firstfruits of Achaia unto Christ.

 

MESSAGE:

The Home Church model is the oldest form of worship centers right from the Old Testament days. It should be recalled that what is now known as Abrahamic faith in at least three notable religions of the world started as a family mode of worship. The Bible tells of how the Abrahamic faith started within the household of Abraham in Genesis 18:19. It is equally interesting to note that when the New testament Church was born, it was within a household at the Upper Room (Acts 1:13). This was where all the earliest apostles were residing when the New Testament Church was inaugurated by the coming of the Holy Ghost.

“Greet Priscilla and Aquila my helpers in Christ Jesus:….  Likewise greet the church that is in their house…..” Romans 16:3, 5

 

Therefore, adopting the Home Church model is going back to the basic. The Home Church model has been proven to be beneficial right from the birth of the Church and all hostility from the world against it. The blessings accruing from the model is innumerable but we shall mention some of the spiritual ones today.

 

To start with, putting a church in your house in the form of a House Fellowship center is like putting the Ark of the Covenant there and it brings abundant blessing like in the case of Obededom. In 2 Samuel 6:10-11. Obededom became a national celebrity to the extent that even King David envied him and hurriedly took the Ark away from his household. The good news is that no one can take the Church away from you as long as you allow Jesus to remain in your house.

 

Corporately speaking, the home Church mode enhances all-round growth of the church. Spiritually, members of the House Fellowship and by extension, of the church are well-groomed since they would be properly taken care of. This model discourages the loss of souls in the multitude of the bigger mother-Church. As we can see from the scriptures we reviewed above, the Home Church model is a design from God and we must all return to it.

 

Beloved, decide to use your home as a sub-unit of the bigger Church today and you would be richly blessed by so doing, in Jesus’s name.

 

PRAYER POINT:

Father, please qualify my home to be a custodian of Your Church, in the mighty name of Jesus.

BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: GENESIS 46-48.

  

AUTHOR: PASTOR E. A. ADEBOYE 

 

HYMN 14:  NEAR, MY GOD TO THEE.

Nearer, my God, to Thee, nearer to Thee!

E’en though it be a cross that raiseth me,

Still all my song shall be, nearer, my God, to Thee.


 Refrain:

Nearer, my God, to Thee, nearer to Thee!

 

Though like the wanderer, the sun gone down,

Darkness be over me, my rest a stone;

Yet in my dreams I’d be nearer, my God, to Thee.


There let the way appear, steps unto Heav’n;

All that Thou sendest me, in mercy giv’n;

Angels to beckon me nearer, my God, to Thee.


Then, with my waking thoughts bright with Thy praise,

Out of my stony griefs Bethel I’ll raise;

So by my woes to be nearer, my God, to Thee.


Or, if on joyful wing cleaving the sky,

Sun, moon, and stars forgot, upward I’ll fly,

Still all my song shall be, nearer, my God, to Thee.


There in my Father’s home, safe and at rest,

There in my Savior’s love, perfectly blest;

Age after age to be nearer, my God, to Thee.
