Open Heavens Daily Devotional by Pastor E.A. Adeboye

OPEN HEAVENS DAILY DEVOTIONAL


DATE: FRIDAY 1ST APRIL 2022


THEME: THERE IS HOPE


MEMORISE:  

For to him that is joined to all the living there is hope: for a living dog is better than a dead lion. 

Ecclesiastes 9:4


READ: Job 14:7 -9 

7 For there is hope of a tree, if it be cut down, that it will sprout again, and that the tender branch thereof will not cease.


8 Though the root thereof wax old in the earth, and the stock thereof die in the ground;


9 Yet through the scent of water it will bud, and bring forth boughs like a plant.


MESSAGE

One of the major things I have come to learn in my decades of walking with Christ is that there is no hopeless situation with God. It does not matter how bad the circumstances are, my God can reverse the seemingly irreversible. In 2 Kings 4:1-7, the Bible tells us of a woman who was so poor and deep in debt that her creditors only hope of recovering their money was to sell her sons. However, in just one day, God turned her story around and she not only had enough to pay off her debt, she also had money to live on for the rest of her life. It doesn’t matter how poor you are now; I decree: God will prosper you, in Jesus’ name.


Your problem may be one of sickness. There is no one so sick that God cannot heal, I was in Ireland a few years ago when a Pastor brought a handkerchief to me to pray on. The lady he wanted to lay the handkerchief on was in the hospital and the doctors had said that she only had a 0.01% chance of surviving. I prayed on the handkerchief and the Pastor took it to her, My God then took the 0.01% chance of survival the doctor had mentioned and used it to give her a 100% healing. Beloved, it does not matter what report the doctors have given concerning you; as long as you can read this or listen to someone else read it to you, I decree that you are healed in Jesus’ name.

In the Redeemed Christian Church of God, we have witnessed several miraculous conceptions and childbirths. In some cases, the women were over sixty years old and some had been declared by medical doctors as unfit to conceive and deliver children. Sarah was 90 years old when she had Isaac. It doesn’t matter how old you are now, those who called you barren will soon be attending the naming ceremony of your children, in Jesus’ name.


God says in Jeremiah 32:27

Behold, I am the Lord, the God of all flesh: is there any thing too hard for me?

 

The question is “Do you believe that He can do it?” James 1:5-7 says whoever comes to ask God for anything without having faith should not expect that he will receive answers to his prayers. A song writer once sang, “Don’t give up on God because He won’t give up on you”. There is hope that all things will turn around for your good if you keep your faith active and live according to God’s will.


ACTION POINT

Do somethings today that will really show God that you believe. He can turn your situation around for the better.

BIBLE IN ONE YEAR

1 Samuel 31 - 2 Samuel 2


AUTHOR: PASTOR E. A ADEBOYE


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!

9. I cover myself with the blood of Jesus. If death sees the blood, it will pass over, and so death and all its agents will pass over me and all my loved ones, in Jesus' name.

12. Your personal prayer request for yourself.


BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: 1 Samuel 26-30


AUTHOR: PASTOR E. A. ADEBOYE


HYMN 8: I'M PRESSING ON THE UPWARD WAY

1. I’m pressing on the upward way,

New heights I’m gaining ev'ry 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.


2 My heart has no desire to stay

Where doubts arise and fears dismay;

Though some may dwell where these abound,

My prayer, my aim, is higher ground. 


3 I want to live above the world,

Though Satan’s darts at me are hurled;

For faith has caught a joyful sound,

The song of saints on higher ground.

Open Heavens Daily Devotional by Pastor E.A. Adeboye

OPEN HEAVENS DAILY DEVOTIONAL


DATE: WEDNESDAY 30TH MARCH 2022.


THEME: HOW TO RETAIN YOUR DOMINION.


MEMORY VERSE:

And all nations will hate you because you are my followers. But everyone who endures to the end will be saved. 

Matthew 10:22 


READ: Philippians 3:10 -15


10 I want to know Christ and experience the mighty power that raised him from the dead. I want to suffer with him, sharing in his death,


11 so that one way or another I will experience the resurrection from the dead!


12 I don’t mean to say that I have already achieved these things or that I have already reached perfection. But I press on to possess that perfection for which Christ Jesus first possessed me.


13 No, dear brothers and sisters, I have not achieved it, but I focus on this one thing: Forgetting the past and looking forward to what lies ahead,


14 I press on to reach the end of the race and receive the heavenly prize for which God, through Christ Jesus, is calling us.


15 Let all who are spiritually mature agree on these things. If you disagree on some point, I believe God will make it plain to you.


MESSAGE 

One truth that we must embrace as we round off our discussion on dominion is that it can be lost if one is careless, arrogant, disobedient or lawless. A classic example of someone who had dominion but lost it is the first king of Israel  - Saul, according to I Samuel 15:1-30. He was not only disobedient, but also unrepentant. He chose to enjoy popularity among the people but this eventually made him lose the desired popularity when God's grace departed from him. To his face the women of Israel sang that "Saul hath slain his thousands, and David his ten thousands" (1 Samuel 18:7). Dominion attracts  fame and popularity; however, if care is not taken, these can make one los his or her dominion and eventually be left with nothing, thus becoming a shadow of his or her past.


Dominion brings about comfort but comfort when mismanaged can cause one to lose his or her dominion, as in case of David. The Bible says that at a time when kings were supposed to have gone to war, David stayed back to enjoy the pleasure of his palace. This was when he saw what he was not supposed to see, fell into a series of sins that brought a curse upon him to temporarily lose his dominion to his son Absalom. Thank God that he had a repentant heart and God mercifully restored his dominion to him (2 Samuel 11:15 - 18). The Bible says: "He that covereth his sins shall not prosper: but whoso confesseth and forsake them shall have mercy" (Proverbs 28:13). This might have made David write Psalm 51 which reads

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

Psalm 51:1


2 Samuel 12:1-13 tells us of the tender mercies of God when David repented.


Beloved, let us be careful not to lose our dominion. To those who have lost their dominion, the good news is that God is ready to forgive if you would repent and trace your steps back to Him today.


There are people who never lost their dominion. Elisha was one of them (2 Kings 13:14-21). You will never lose your dominion, in the mighty name of Jesus.


PRAYER POINT:

Father, please help me to be obedient to You at all times so that I will never lose the dominion You have given me, in the mighty name of Jesus.

BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: 1 Samuel 23-25


AUTHOR: PASTOR E. A. ADEBOYE


HYMN 19: O WORSHIP THE KING ALL GLORIOUS ABOVE

1 O worship the King all-glorious above,

O gratefully sing his power and his love:

our shield and defender, the Ancient of Days,

pavilioned in splendor and girded with praise.


2 O tell of his might and sing of his grace,

whose robe is the light, whose canopy space.

His chariots of wrath the deep thunderclouds form,

and dark is his path on the wings of the storm.


3 Your bountiful care, what tongue can recite?

It breathes in the air, it shines in the light;

it streams from the hills, it descends to the plain,

and sweetly distills in the dew and the rain.


4 Frail children of dust, and feeble as frail,

in you do we trust, nor find you to fail.

Your mercies, how tender, how firm to the end,

our Maker, Defender, Redeemer, and Friend!

DATE:  TUESDAY 29TH MARCH 2022


THEME:  PROOF OF DOMINION II


MEMORRISE:

 You will live by your sword, and you will serve your brother. But when you decide to break free, you will shake his yoke from your neck.” 

Genesis 27:40


READ: Genesis 27:37-40 

37 Isaac said to Esau, “I have made Jacob your master and have declared that all his brothers will be his servants. I have guaranteed him an abundance of grain and wine—what is left for me to give you, my son?”


38 Esau pleaded, “But do you have only one blessing? Oh my father, bless me, too!” Then Esau broke down and wept.


39 Finally, his father, Isaac, said to him, “You will live away from the richness of the earth, and away from the dew of the heaven above.


40 You will live by your sword, and you will serve your brother. But when you decide to break free, you will shake his yoke from your neck.”


MESSAGE 

We discussed fruitfulness as a proof of dominion yesterday. Today we shall look at various means by which we can be fruitful and have dominion. Hard work is one of the major means of fruitfulness. The Bible says, "The thoughts of the diligent tend only to plenteousness; but of every one that is hasty only to want" (Proverbs 21:5). Laziness is not a Christian virtue. As a matter of fact, the Bible says "...this we commanded you, that if any would not work, neither should he eat" (2 Thessalonians 3:10).


Diligence is so potent that it can be rightly said that nothing shall be impossible for the diligent. Dominion through diligence destroyed the yoke of Jacob on the neck of his careless brother, Esau. Even after he had lost his blessing to Jacob, Esau insisted that the father should give him the leftover of the blessings which his brother took from him.


On Jacob's return journey to his father's house, he was met with Esau who already had dominion. It is interesting to read that the man who got the blessing through crooked means was trembling before the one he had cheated of it.


And he passed over before them, and bowed himself to the ground seven times, until he came near to his brother. And Esau ran to meet him, and embraced  him, and fell on his neck, and kissed him: and wept.

Genesis 33:3-4


The wives and children of Jacob came in succession to greet and bow before Esau. When Jacob tried to bribe his way into having peace with his brother the second time, the brother said he did not need Jacob's wealth. This is because he himself was already blessed to the extent that he had a personal army of four hundred men. (Genesis 33:8-11). Esau told Jacob he had enough; this was from a leftover blessing.


Diligence indeed leads to greatness, which in turn leads to dominion. Commit to being diligent in all you do (Ecclesiastes 9:10) and you will indeed have dominion.


PRAYER POINT:

Father, please bless the work of my hands and let me have dominion through Your blessings, in Jesus name.

BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: 1 Samuel 20-22


AUTHOR: PASTOR E. A. ADEBOYE


HYMN 16: O GOD OUR HELP IN AGES PAST

1 O God, our help in ages past,

our hope for years to come,

our shelter from the stormy blast,

and our eternal home:


2 Under the shadow of your throne

your saints have dwelt secure;

sufficient is your arm alone,

and our defense is sure.


3 Before the hills in order stood,

or earth received its frame,

from everlasting you are God,

to endless years the same.


4 A thousand ages in your sight

are like an evening gone,

short as the watch that ends the night

before the rising sun.
