DATE: WEDNESDAY 6TH APRIL 2022

THEME: WHY YOU SHOULD NEVER BACKSLIDE III

MEMORISE: 

What man of you, having an hundred sheep, if he lose one of them, doth not leave the ninety and nine in the wilderness, and go after that which is lost, until he find it? 

Luke 15:4

READ: Luke 15:3 -7

3 And he spake this parable unto them, saying,

4 What man of you, having an hundred sheep, if he lose one of them, doth not leave the ninety and nine in the wilderness, and go after that which is lost, until he find it?

5 And when he hath found it, he layeth it on his shoulders, rejoicing.

6 And when he cometh home, he calleth together his friends and neighbours, saying unto them, Rejoice with me; for I have found my sheep which was lost.

7 I say unto you, that likewise joy shall be in heaven over one sinner that repenteth, more than over ninety and nine just persons, which need no repentance.

MESSAGE

One other major reason I am determined never to backslide is that I don’t want to cause God any heartache. In the Bible reading for today, the Lord asked if there was anyone who would not go after one lost sheep even if they still had a flock of ninety-nine in their care. If we review this scenario described by our Lord Jesus a little more closely, we would realize that a shepherd would only know that one of the sheep is missing in the evening because a flock of a hundred sheep and that of ninety-nine sheep would look alike at a glance. The shepherd would only get to know of the missing sheep when he counts them at night, just before he rests from the day’s work.  However, upon discovering that one sheep is missing, he would immediately resume work and begin to search for it. I don’t want to cause my Lord Jesus Christ any heartache; if anything at all, I want to bring Him joy.

The story in our text tells us that, until He finds that missing sheep, the Shepherd would not rest. Also, the fact that when He found the sheep, He came back rejoicing shows that when He was looking for the sheep, He was in sorrow. I don’t want my life to cause sorrow to the Almighty. I don’t know about you, but I, Adeboye, will only bring joy to the Lord and not sorrow.

The story is even deeper than that. Luke 15:7 tells us that there is rejoicing in heaven when one sinner repents. You see, there are two opposite sides in the Spirit realm-Light and darkness. Each time somebody gets born again, there is sorrow in hell because the devil has lost somebody, so the devil pursues that fellow with the intention of bringing him back into his company. Each time a Christian backslides, there is rejoicing in the camp of the devil. Let me give you an illustration: If you used to be an unbeliever, constantly at the bar drinking with many friends, then got born again, your former drinking partners would begin to avoid you because your life would now become a challenge to them. Just seeing you alone would make them feel condemned. Can you then imagine what would happen if one day they suddenly saw you back at the bar? They would shout for joy and drink more that they normally do that day. Each time a Christian backslides, he or she would make the devil celebrate and bring displeasure to God, I pray you will never cause God any form of displeasure, in Jesus’ name.

REFLECTION

In what ways have you been causing Jesus heartache? Repent today and commit to only bring Him joy henceforth.

OPEN HEAVENS DAILY DEVOTIONAL

DATE: TUESDAY 5TH APRIL 2022

THEME: WHY YOU SHOULD NEVER BACKSLIDE 2

MEMORISE: 

But when the righteous turneth away from his righteousness, and committeth iniquity, and doeth according to all the abominations that the wicked man doeth, shall he live? All his righteousness that he hath done shall not be mentioned: in his trespass that he hath trespassed, and in his sin that he hath sinned, in them shall he die. 

Ezekiel 18:24

READ: Ezekiel 18:20 -32

20 The soul that sinneth, it shall die. The son shall not bear the iniquity of the father, neither shall the father bear the iniquity of the son: the righteousness of the righteous shall be upon him, and the wickedness of the wicked shall be upon him.

21 But if the wicked will turn from all his sins that he hath committed, and keep all my statutes, and do that which is lawful and right, he shall surely live, he shall not die.

22 All his transgressions that he hath committed, they shall not be mentioned unto him: in his righteousness that he hath done he shall live.

23 Have I any pleasure at all that the wicked should die? saith the Lord GOD: and not that he should return from his ways, and live?

24 But when the righteous turneth away from his righteousness, and committeth iniquity, and doeth according to all the abominations that the wicked man doeth, shall he live? All his righteousness that he hath done shall not be mentioned: in his trespass that he hath trespassed, and in his sin that he hath sinned, in them shall he die.

25 Yet ye say, The way of the Lord is not equal. Hear now, O house of Israel; Is not my way equal? are not your ways unequal?

26 When a righteous man turneth away from his righteousness, and committeth iniquity, and dieth in them; for his iniquity that he hath done shall he die.

27 Again, when the wicked man turneth away from his wickedness that he hath committed, and doeth that which is lawful and right, he shall save his soul alive.

28 Because he considereth, and turneth away from all his transgressions that he hath committed, he shall surely live, he shall not die.

29 Yet saith the house of Israel, The way of the Lord is not equal. O house of Israel, are not my ways equal? are not your ways unequal?

30 Therefore I will judge you, O house of Israel, every one according to his ways, saith the Lord GOD. Repent, and turn yourselves from all your transgressions; so iniquity shall not be your ruin.

31 Cast away from you all your transgressions, whereby ye have transgressed; and make you a new heart and a new spirit: for why will ye die, O house of Israel?

32 For I have no pleasure in the death of him that dieth, saith the Lord GOD: wherefore turn yourselves, and live ye.

MESSAGE:

Another reason I am determined never to backslide is that if I do, the record of everything I have ever done for God would be erased. The Bible says in Ezekiel 18:24:

But when the righteous turneth away from his righteousness, and committeth iniquity, and doeth according to all the abominations that the wicked man doeth, shall he live? All his righteousness that he hath done shall not be mentioned: in his trespass that he hath trespassed, and in his sin that he hath sinned, in them shall he die.

It does not matter how far you have gone in your Christian race, how many souls you have won for God or how many Churches you have planted; the moment you become a backslider, everything you have done before would not be mentioned. It means one fellow can serve God all his life and then backslide just one month before he dies and he would end up in hell. Don’t you want to make it to heaven, live in your glorious mansion and see the Lord Jesus Christ whom you have served for so long? Why would you let one little temptation deny you of that glorious experience and make you end up in the hands of the devil?

In case you are not aware, there will be many evangelists in hell; some church workers and even ministers will end up in hell. If you don’t believe me read Matthew 7:21-23. I pray you will not be one of such, in Jesus’ name.

What is the use of serving God so much here on earth and still ending up in the same place that unbelievers will end up in? You had better put aside every sin that draws you back in your Christian race and face God squarely.

Wherefore 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.

Hebrews 12:1

What is that sin that is so alluring to you? Believe me honestly, it is not as valuable as your soul. Protect your soul and run away from sin.

KEY POINT

Nothing is worth losing your salvation over

DATE: MONDAY 4TH APRIL 2022

THEME: WHY YOU SHOULD NEVER BACKSLIDE 1

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: 2 Peter 2:20 -22

20 For if after they have escaped the pollutions of the world through the knowledge of the Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ, they are again entangled therein, and overcome, the latter end is worse with them than the beginning.

21 For it had been better for them not to have known the way of righteousness, than, after they have known it, to turn from the holy commandment delivered unto them.

22 But it is happened unto them according to the true proverb, The dog is turned to his own vomit again; and the sow that was washed to her wallowing in the mire.

MESSAGE

There are several reasons every Christian should pray and work earnestly never to backslide. One of these is that anyone who strays from the path of righteousness will dwell in the congregation of the dead (Proverbs 21:16). 

When we got born again, we were translated from the kingdom of darkness into light – we passed from death to life. To go back to the congregation of dead is a terrible thing that all Christians must do everything possible to avoid. Hebrews 10:38-39 states clearly that:

Now the just shall live by faith: but if any man draw back, my soul shall have no pleasure in him. But we are not of them who draw back unto perdition; but of them that believe to the saving of the soul.

God has absolutely no pleasure in backslider. The moment a child of God backslides, he or she immediately becomes unfit to enter the Kingdom of God as we read in our memory verse today.

The moment you backslide, God says “You have lost the qualification required to enter into His kingdom”. The interesting thing about this is that once the devil sees that a person is displeasing God, he comes in and pushes the fellow to the point where he can make a mockery of him or her.

I know many people who backslide and first thought that they were free from all the ‘restrictions’ of the gospel but soon realized that they had become objects of mockery. Their end was indeed terrible.

The prodigal son for example backslide and thought he was free from his father’s rules and regulations, but he did not know that the devil was pushing him to the point where he would beg to eat food served to pigs. As for me, I am determined never to backslide.

If you are currently considering the pleasure of this world, remember that it is just a bait for the devil to get you. Hold fast that which you have in the Lord, so that someone else does not take your place in Christ (Revelation 3:11).

KEYPOINT

Backsliders may think they are having fun at first, but soon they will end up as objects of mockery for the devil.

Open Heavens Daily Devotional by Pastor E.A. Adeboye

OPEN HEAVENS DAILY DEVOTIONAL

DATE: SUNDAY 3RD APRIL 2022

THEME: DON’T WRITE YOURSELF OFF

MEMORISE: 

Though thy beginning was small, yet thy latter end should greatly increase. 

Job 8:7 

READ: Micah 7:7 -10

7 Therefore I will look unto the LORD; I will wait for the God of my salvation: my God will hear me.

8 Rejoice not against me, O mine enemy: when I fall, I shall arise; when I sit in darkness, the LORD shall be a light unto me.

9 I will bear the indignation of the LORD, because I have sinned against him, until he plead my cause, and execute judgment for me: he will bring me forth to the light, and I shall behold his righteousness.

10 Then she that is mine enemy shall see it, and shame shall cover her which said unto me, Where is the LORD thy God? mine eyes shall behold her: now shall she be trodden down as the mire of the streets.

MESSAGE

In Genesis 16:4, after Sarah’s maid had become pregnant for Abraham, she began to mock Sarah. She mocked Sarah because she left God out of the calculation. Though Sarah’s case looked impossible at the time, before long, she was carrying her own baby too. No matter how desperate your situation may be, nobody has the right to write you off yet. Just as they may be thinking of writing you off, the Almighty God will arise and change your situation for the better.

Someone once preached a message about the power of ‘yet’. He encouraged his congregation that whenever they want to answer a question that seems embarrassing, they should remember to add the word ‘yet’.

For example, if you are  marriageable but not yet married, whenever you are asked, “Are you married? Your answer should be “I am not married YET”. If you are asked, “Do you have a car?” when you don’t have one, simply respond “I don’t have a car YET”. This preacher went on to say that when you add the word ‘yet’ to your answer, you are asserting that the way things are now is not the same way they would be in the future. You are saying, in essence, “Don’t write me off; you just wait and see, my miracle will soon arrive”.

Beyond adding the word ‘yet’ when answering seemingly embarrassing questions, you must believe it yourself. You must ensure that you are not writing yourself off. You must ensure that you are seeing yourself going higher and not remaining in that situation. Ecclesiastes 9:4 tells us that as long as you are alive, there is hope. If God has kept you alive up to this moment, then He must have a great plan for you. Revelations 3:7 says that He has the key of David, so whatever He opens is opened and whatever He shuts is shut. He has not written you off, so no matter what anybody thinks, you will be great.

I remember when things were very tough for my family. My wife and I used to share just one small piece of ponmon (cow hide) to go with our meals, as it was the cheapest kind of meat. I would tell her back then, “Darling, thins will not always be like this, you know? Our tomorrow will be alright”. Today, by the special grace of God, if we want to eat one cow per day, my God will provide it. Say to yourself, “Things will get better. My tomorrow will be alright, in the mighty name of Jesus.”

KEYPOINT

Your tomorrow will be alright.

BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: 2 Samuel 7-10

AUTHOR: PASTOR E. A ADEBOYE

HYMN 14: NEARER MY GOD TO THEE

1 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; 

nearer, my God, to thee, nearer to thee! 

2 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; 

nearer, my God, to thee, nearer to thee! 

3 There let the way appear, steps unto heaven; 

all that thou sendest me, in mercy given; 

angels to beckon me 

nearer, my God, to thee; 

nearer, my God, to thee, nearer to thee! 

4 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; 

nearer, my God, to thee, nearer to thee! 

5 Or if, on joyful wing cleaving the sky,

sun, moon, and stars forgot, upward I fly, 

still all my song shall be, 

nearer, my God, to thee; 

nearer, my God, to thee, nearer to thee!

Open Heavens Prayer Points

PRAYER POINTS ON TODAY'S OPEN HEAVENS:

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.
