Open Heavens Daily Devotional by Pastor E.A. Adeboye

OPEN HEAVENS DAILY DEVOTIONAL


DATE: SUNDAY 13TH MARCH 2022


THEME: NO GOING BACK 


MEMORISE: 

And Jesus said unto him, No man, having put his hand to the plough, and looking back, is fit for the kingdom of God. 

Luke 9:62


READ: Luke 9:57-62 


57 And it came to pass, that, as they went in the way, a certain man said unto him, Lord, I will follow thee whithersoever thou goest.


58 And Jesus said unto him, Foxes have holes, and birds of the air have nests; but the Son of man hath not where to lay his head.


59 And he said unto another, Follow me. But he said, Lord, suffer me first to go and bury my father.


60 Jesus said unto him, Let the dead bury their dead: but go thou and preach the kingdom of God.


61 And another also said, Lord, I will follow thee; but let me first go bid them farewell, which are at home at my house.


62 And Jesus said unto him, No man, having put his hand to the plough, and looking back, is fit for the kingdom of God.


MESSAGE

Situations in the world today can make any child of God backslide if he or she is not well-grounded in His word. Knowing this, Jesus Christ told the disciples in John 16:33, "These things I have spoken unto you, that in me ye might have peace. In the world ye shall have tribulation: but be of good cheer; I have overcome the world". 


Just after the crucifixion and resurrection of Jesus, Peter decided to return to his former trade of fishing along with some other disciples (John 21:3). Many things could have been responsible for their decision to abandon their calling in Christ as evangelists to go back to fishing. Peter and the other disciples that followed him must have felt the future was bleak since their expectation of Jesus as the political Messiah was dashed at His crucifixion. They may also have been disappointed over the fact that, upon His resurrection, Jesus Christ did not restore the sovereignty of Israel as a nation, as expected. This made them ask, "....Lord, wilt thou at this time restore again the kingdom of Israel?" (Acts 1:6).


Beloved, what may cause you to contemplate going back into the world? Is it joblessness, a troublesome spouse, a failed business, yet-to-be-fulfilled dreams, betrayal from friends or loved ones? Take a cue from Paul -an apostle of Christ, when he asked rhetorically:

Who shall separate us from the love of  Christ? Shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword? ...Nay, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him that loved us.

Romans 8:35, 37.


Jesus Christ in our memory verse today warns us against going back when He says that, having decided to work for the Lord, anyone who goes back to the world is not fit for the Kingdom (Luke 9:62). Therefore beloved, going back because of what you are passing through is not an option because the Bible says that we should hold fast that profession of our faith without wavering (Hebrews 10:23). The good news is that glory is waiting ahead of you if only you can hold on to Christ and never go back to the world (Colossians 1:27, Psalm 30:5).


PRAYER POINT

Father, please keep me in Your arms, don't let me fall away from the faith, in Jesus name.

HYMN 12: MY FAITH LOOKS UP TO THEE


1 My faith looks up to thee,

thou Lamb of Calvary,

Savior divine.

Now hear me while I pray;

take all my guilt away;

O let me from this day

be wholly thine!


2 May thy rich grace impart

strength to my fainting heart;

my zeal inspire!

As thou hast died for me,

oh, may my love to thee

pure, warm, and changeless be,

a living fire!


3 While life's dark maze I tread,

and griefs around me spread,

be thou my guide.

Bid darkness turn to day,

wipe sorrow's tears away,

nor let me ever stray

from thee aside.


4 When ends life's transient dream,

when death's cold, sullen stream

shall o'er me roll,

blest Savior, then, in love,

fear and distrust remove;

O bear me safe above,

a ransomed soul!

Open Heavens Daily Devotional by Pastor E.A. Adeboye

OPEN HEAVENS DAILY DEVOTIONAL


DATE: SATURDAY 12TH MARCH 2022


THEME: SHINING AS THE BRIGHT AND MORNING STAR II.   


MEMORISE

But with the precious blood of Christ, as of a lamb without blemish and without spot: 

1 Peter 1:19 


READ: Daniel 12:3 

3 And they that be wise shall shine as the brightness of the firmament; and they that turn many to righteousness as the stars for ever and ever.


MESSAGE

Shining in darkness is one thing but to shine in broad daylight is something else entirely. It is extraordinary.


The only way to shine in broad daylight is to surrender your life to Christ - the Bright and Morning Star. You  cannot shine without Him because you have no light of your own. You must become a disciple of Jesus Christ if you want to shine like Him and to achieve this you must obey His word and continue in it (John 8:31-32).


You can only shine when you reflect the light of the Bright and Morning Star. When the Bright and Morning Star takes over one's life, many pleasant things begin to happen to that person. For example, Jesus the Bright and Morning Star deliberately came to this world poor, so that through His poverty, we might become rich, according to 2 Corinthians 8:9 which says:

For ye know the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, that, though he was rich, yet for your sakes he became poor, that ye through his poverty might be rich.


Flourishing when the economy of nations and the world in general is struggling is an example of shining as the Bright and Morning Star. Being perfectly whole in the midst of a pandemic is another great example since you have already been healed by the stripes of the Bright and Morning Star (I Peter 2:2).


One of the fastest ways of shining like the Bright and Morning Star is to continue to do, what He has commissioned us His followers, to do: soulwinning. Our memory verse says that we His followers shall be wise and shine like the sun; that when we win souls, we shall shine like stars. Prov. 11:30 tells us that those who win souls are wise. To shine like the he Bright and Morning Star, we must therefore be wise - we must win souls.


It is an open secret that I began to shine the moment I made up my mind to win souls into the Kingdom of God. You also can become a star today. Accept Jesus as your Lord, begin to win souls for Him and you will shine forever.


ACTION POINT 

Begin to win soul today and the Bright and Morning Star will shine through you.

HYMN 9: I'VE A MESSAGE FROM THE LORD HALLELUJAH.


1 I’ve a message from the Lord, Hallelujah!

The 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.”


2 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. 


3 Life is offered unto you. Hallelujah!

Eternal life your soul shall have

If you’ll only look to Him. Hallelujah!

Look to Jesus, who alone can save.

Open Heavens Daily Devotional by Pastor E.A. Adeboye

OPEN HEAVENS DAILY DEVOTIONAL


DATE: FRIDAY 11TH MARCH 2022


THEME: SHINNING AS THE BRIGHT AND MORNING STAR I.


MEMORISE

I Jesus have sent mine angel to testify unto you these things in the churches. I am the root and the offspring of David, and the bright and morning star. 

Revelation 22:16


READ: Revelation 22:12 -16


12 And, behold, I come quickly; and my reward is with me, to give every man according as his work shall be.


13 I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end, the first and the last.


14 Blessed are they that do his commandments, that they may have right to the tree of life, and may enter in through the gates into the city.


15 For without are dogs, and sorcerers, and whoremongers, and murderers, and idolaters, and whosoever loveth and maketh a lie.


16 I Jesus have sent mine angel to testify unto you these things in the churches. I am the root and the offspring of David, and the bright and morning star.


MESSAGE

Jesus introduced Himself as the Bright and Morning Star in our Bible reading today before making some important declarations concerning His expectations from us as well as our promised reward. HE was very clear about His expectations because not only does He want us to be like Him, He also wants us to perform greater works (John 12:14).


To become shinning stars like our Lord Jesus, we must acknowledge that we were filthy sinners before we encounter Jesus (1 John 1:7-9); Romans 3:23). This knowledge will take us to Calvary where the Bright and Morning Star bled and died for us to access forgiveness and cleansing. This is when we confess and repent of our sins. Two, we must live strictly by Hs standards. Many people want to benefit from the innumerable blessings of the Bright and Morning Star including shinning in the darkness of this world, but they are not ready to surrender completely to His Lordship. If Adam and Eve had known whom they belonged to, they would never have succumbed to the deceit of the devil which suddenly turned their day into night.


What are the characteristics of the Bright and Morning Star? He never sinned; hence,to shine like Him we too must live a sin-free life. Many may claim that this is impossible, but it is possible because the Bible says those who are born of God do not sin; indeed, they cannot sin because the seed of God is within them (1John 3:9). How? John 1:11-12 says that as many as believe Jesus He gives power to become children of God.


The Bright and Morning Star has never been overwhelmed by darkness; even in the day, He still shines brightly to the whole world. The Bible says, "And the light shineth in  darkness; and the darkness comprehended it not (John 1:5). Sickness is a form of darkness and Jesus Christ was never sick. I therefore declare that the Bright and Morning Star will make sickness history in your life.


Do you want to shine like the Bright and Morning Star? Give your life to Him first, and then begin to live strictly by His commandment.


PRAYER POINT

Father, please send your light upon me and let me begin to shine like my Lord- the Bright and Morning Star, in the mighty name of Jesus.

HYMN 13: MY HOPE IS BUILT ON NOTHING LESS.


1 My hope is built on nothing less

than Jesus' blood and righteousness;

I dare not trust the sweetest frame,

but wholly lean on Jesus' name.


Refrain:

On Christ, the solid Rock, I stand:

all other ground is sinking sand;

all other ground is sinking sand.


2 When darkness veils his lovely face,

I rest on his unchanging grace;

in every high and stormy gale,

my anchor holds within the veil. 


3 His oath, his covenant, his blood,

support me in the whelming flood;

when all around my soul gives way,

he then is all my hope and stay. 


4 When he shall come with trumpet sound,

O may I then in him be found:

dressed in his righteousness alone,

faultless to stand before the throne.
