Open Heavens Daily Devotional by Pastor E.A. Adeboye

OPEN HEAVENS DAILY DEVOTIONAL


DATE: SUNDAY MAY 29TH, 2022.


THEME: GOD IS FAITHFUL II


MEMORISE: 

Then said the LORD unto me, Thou hast well seen: for I will hasten my word to perform it. 

Jeremiah 1:12 


READ: Isaiah 52:7 -12

7 How beautiful upon the mountains are the feet of him that bringeth good tidings, that publisheth peace; that bringeth good tidings of good, that publisheth salvation; that saith unto Zion, Thy God reigneth!


8 Thy watchmen shall lift up the voice; with the voice together shall they sing: for they shall see eye to eye, when the LORD shall bring again Zion.


9 Break forth into joy, sing together, ye waste places of Jerusalem: for the LORD hath comforted his people, he hath redeemed Jerusalem.


10 The LORD hath made bare his holy arm in the eyes of all the nations; and all the ends of the earth shall see the salvation of our God.


11 Depart ye, depart ye, go ye out from thence, touch no unclean thing; go ye out of the midst of her; be ye clean, that bear the vessels of the LORD.


12 For ye shall not go out with haste, nor go by flight: for the LORD will go before you; and the God of Israel will be your rereward.


MESSAGE

God promised the salvation of mankind right from the Garden of Eden and though its fulfillment seemed to tarry, it was actualized at the appointed time. This simply tells us that the faithfulness of God will always make good all the promises He has spoken concerning you. Even when it seems it is delayed, wait for it. It will surely come to pass (Habakkuk 2:3).


One aspect of God’s faithfulness we will consider today is that which pertains to our redemption. It is amazing that God began the redemption process almost immediately after the fall of man - promising us ultimate victory, according to Genesis 3:15.


When God began to deal with the children of Israel, He had redemption at heart all the way from the days of Abraham. One of His promises to Abraham in Genesis 12:3 has to do with salvation coming from his seed.


Yet the number of the children of Israel shall be as the sand of the sea, which cannot be measured nor numbered; and it shall come to pass, that in the place where it was said unto them, Ye are not my people, there it shall be said unto them, Ye are the sons of the living God.

Hosea 1:10


The Scripture above was re-enacted in the New Testament when Paul, an apostle, was affirming the faithfulness of God to His promise of the redemption of the Gentiles (Romans 9:26). Our text of today tells of the promise of God concerning salvation. If you are yet to take advantage of this offer of salvation which was freely promised and given, please do so today before it is too late. The Bible says:


(For he saith, I have heard thee in a time accepted, and in the day of salvation have I succored thee: behold, now is the accepted time; behold, now is the day of salvation.)

2 Corinthinans 6:2.


For those who have given their lives to Jesus already, be confident that all His promises to you will be performed at the appointed time. Continue to trust in Him with all your heart and be joyful as you wait on Him. I assure you that God is faithful and He will never disappoint you.


ACTION POINT

Search the scripture for God's promises relating to you and claim them.

BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: Job 25-29


AUTHOR: PASTOR E. A ADEBOYE 


HYMN 21: STANDING ON THE PROMISES OF GOD


1 Standing on the promises of Christ my King,

Through eternal ages let His praises ring,

Glory in the highest, I will shout and sing,

Standing on the promises of God.

 

Refrain:

Standing, standing,

Standing on the promises of God my Savior;

Standing, standing,

I’m standing on the promises of God.


2 Standing on the promises that cannot fail,

When the howling storms of doubt and fear assail,

By the living Word of God I shall prevail,

Standing on the promises of God.


3 Standing on the promises I now can see

Perfect, present cleansing in the blood for me;

Standing in the liberty where Christ makes free,

Standing on the promises of God.


4 Standing on the promises of Christ the Lord,

Bound to Him eternally by love’s strong cord,

Overcoming daily with the Spirit’s sword,

Standing on the promises of God.


5 Standing on the promises I shall not fall,

List’ning every moment to the Spirit’s call.

Resting in my Savior as my All in all,

Standing on the promises of God.

Open Heavens Daily Devotional by Pastor E.A. Adeboye

OPEN HEAVENS DAILY DEVOTIONAL


DATE: SATURDAY MAY 28TH, 2022.


THEME: GOD IS FAITHFUL I.


MEMORISE: 

That by two immutable things, in which it was impossible for God to lie, we might have a strong consolation, who have fled for refuge to lay hold upon the hope set before us: 

Hebrews 6:18 


READ: Deuteronomy 7:7 -9

7 The LORD did not set his love upon you, nor choose you, because ye were more in number than any people; for ye were the fewest of all people:


8 But because the LORD loved you, and because he would keep the oath which he had sworn unto your fathers, hath the LORD brought you out with a mighty hand, and redeemed you out of the house of bondmen, from the hand of Pharaoh king of Egypt.


9 Know therefore that the LORD thy God, he is God, the faithful God, which keepeth covenant and mercy with them that love him and keep his commandments to a thousand generations;


MESSAGE

There is only one faithful personality in the whole universe, and that is the Creator Himself. This is why, when He was to swear about His faithfulness to Abraham, He used no other personality than Himself. When we do a survey of God’s dealings with men of old, we would be left without any doubt that God is faithful. For example, God called Abraham out from his father’s house and promised that He would make him a great nation (Genesis 12:1-2). This was when Abraham was yet to have a child. When Abraham, like any human being, was becoming agitated and impatient, God went ahead to renew and increase the content of the covenant that came in the form of a promise.


After these things the word of the Lord came unto Abram in a vision, saying, Fear not, Abram: I am thy shield, and thy exceeding great reward…And he brought him forth abroad, and said, Look now toward heaven, and tell the stars, if thou be able to number them: and he said unto him, So shall thy seed be.

Genesis 15:1,5


These promises were fulfilled in Genesis 21:1-3 and Exodus 1:9-10 in particular, when the Egyptians became afraid of the population of the children of Israel. Pharaoh said to his people:

…the people of the children of Israel are more and mightier than we: Come on let us deal wisely with them; lest they multiply, and it come pass, that when there falleth out any war, they join also unto our enemies, and fight against us, and so get them up out of the land.

Exodus 1:9-10


Beloved, God is faithful to His creation including the fulfilling of times and seasons (Genesis 8:22). He will be faithful to you if you will be faithful to Him as a child of God. Remember, what He said in Exodus 20:6 is still valid. Come to the One who promised us the coming of the Saviour and fulfilled it; your life will be transformed by His faithfulness, in Jesus’ name.


ACTION POINT 

Thank and praise God for His faithfulness in all generations and to you in particular.

BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: Job 21-24


AUTHOR: PASTOR E. A ADEBOYE 


HYMN 4: GREAT IS THY FAITHFULNESS 

1 Great is Thy faithfulness,” O God my Father,

There is no shadow of turning with Thee;

Thou changest not, Thy compassions, they fail not

As Thou hast been Thou forever wilt be.

 

“Great is Thy faithfulness!” “Great is Thy faithfulness!”

Morning by morning new mercies I see;

All I have needed Thy hand hath provided,

“Great is Thy faithfulness,” Lord, unto me!


2 Summer and winter, and springtime and harvest,

Sun, moon and stars in their courses above,

Join with all nature in manifold witness

To Thy great faithfulness, mercy and love.


3 Pardon for sin and a peace that endureth,

Thine own dear presence to cheer and to guide;

Strength for today and bright hope for tomorrow,

Blessings all mine, with ten thousand beside!

DATE: FRIDAY MAY 27TH, 2022.


THEME: REBUKE NOT AN ELDER


MEMORISE: 

Rebuke not an elder, but intreat him as a father; and the younger men as brethren;  

1Timothy 5:1 


READ: Proverbs 30:11 -14

11 There is a generation that curseth their father, and doth not bless their mother.


12 There is a generation that are pure in their own eyes, and yet is not washed from their filthiness.


13 There is a generation, O how lofty are their eyes! and their eyelids are lifted up.


14 There is a generation, whose teeth are as swords, and their jaw teeth as knives, to devour the poor from off the earth, and the needy from among men.


MESSAGE

Sadly, the generation referred to in the Bible reading for today - a generation that curses their own fathers, is living right now in these present times. This is a generation that is puffed up with pride, believing that they know more than the elders; they even call themselves ‘woke’. I am not talking about this because I am an elder myself, but rather because I love you and if I keep quiet, I would be a wicked father watching his children heading for destruction. Indeed, although I have been criticized too many times, I must still say the truth as God has given it to us in the Bible.


Our memory verse today is a clear and divine instruction showing how the younger generation must honour elders. Many youths however, have various excuses for disrespecting and insulting eldlers. One of such excuses they give is that no one is perfect. They believe that even an elder can be wrong and corrected accordingly. That is correct; an elder can indeed be wrong, but while the Bible does not prohibit you from correcting him or her, it clearly says you should intreat such as a father or mother and not rebuke. When you criticize anyone in public, that is a rebuke (1 Timothy 5:20); it is against the word of God when done to elders. If an elder has done something that you think is wrong, you could send him or her a message or write a letter stating politely what you think would have been correct; he or she would at least take cognizance of what you have said and make adjustments where necessary.


Also, in the Church, while the  youths may feel they have a lot of knowledge and are very agile, you must still give honour to the elders. You shouldn’t just set them aside. You may have a lot of knowledge, but they are more versed in discerning the will of God. They have walked the path that you are walking and have a robust wealth of experience that you can gain a lot from. Give them the honour that they deservce. In fact, the Bible says that you should give them double honour.


Let the elders that rule well be counted worthy of double honour, especially they who labour in the word and doctrine.

1 Timothy 5:17.


KEY POINT

Honor your elders

THEME: PRAYERS FOR ELDERS


MEMORISE: 

The hoary head is a crown of glory, if it be found in the way of righteousness. 

Proverbs 16:31 


READ: Titus 2:1 -5

1 But speak thou the things which become sound doctrine:


2 That the aged men be sober, grave, temperate, sound in faith, in charity, in patience.


3 The aged women likewise, that they be in behaviour as becometh holiness, not false accusers, not given to much wine, teachers of good things;


4 That they may teach the young women to be sober, to love their husbands, to love their children,


5 To be discreet, chaste, keepers at home, good, obedient to their own husbands, that the word of God be not blasphemed.


MESSAGE

1. Father, thank You for our elders. Thank You for preserving and keeping them strong and healthy all these years. We are grateful Lord that we have godly elders to look up to.


2. Father, please keep our elders to a good old age. Don’t let them spend their old age in sickness or sorrow. Let them have peace even in their old age, in Jesus’ name.


3. Father, please forgive our elders for every bad seed they may have sown when they were younger. Please Lord, cancel every negative harvest of such bad seeds, in Jesus’ name.


4. Father, we pray for wisdom for our elders to advise us and teach us correctly when we go to them with our challenges, in Jesus’ name.


5. Lord, as You backed the blessing of Isaac on Jacob, when our elders bless us, back up their words and let them come to pass, in Jesus’ name.


6. Father, please don’t let our elders become redundant. Let their grace and anointing increase as they grow older. Continue to use them even until the end, in Jesus’ name,


7. Father, give our elders the spiritual sensitivity they need to be great coverings for us. Let them sense ahead of time, whatever the devil may be planning and warn us about it so that we don’t crash, in Jesus’ name.


8. Father, I pray particularly for the elders in my family; whatever we need to make them comfortable, please provide for us in abundance, in Jesus’ name.


9. Father, let all the good prayers and wishes of our elders over us be fulfilled in Jesus’ name. let us, the younger ones, always bring them joy, in Jesus’ name.


10. Father, for every elder who is lonely, please send them company that will love them and take care of them. Let their family members not be able to rest until they begin to take care of their aged ones, in Jesus’ name.


11. Father, protect our elders against people who would try to take advantage of them because of their age. Expose anyone presenting false investments, false medication and the likes in order to steal from our elders. Do not permit our elders to be exploited, in Jesus’ name.


12. Your personal prayer points for the elders in your family and community.
