THEME: VICTORY OVER SICKNESSES AND DISEASES

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:

Psalms 103:1 -3

1 (A Psalm of David.) Bless the LORD, O my soul: and all that is within me, bless his holy name.

2 Bless the LORD, O my soul, and forget not all his benefits:

3 Who forgiveth all thine iniquities; who healeth all thy diseases;

MESSAGE:

The Almighty God is still in the business of healing as many as would come to Him in faith. As soon as Jesus returned from preaching the Sermon on the Mount, a leper met Him on the way, asking to be healed. Jesus did not turn him down, Matthew 8:3 says:

And Jesus put forth his hand, and touched him, saying, I will; be thou clean. And immediately his leprosy was cleansed.

If there is a disease in your body, my Daddy - the Creator of all things - is able to heal you and He will do so today, in Jesus’ name.

A woman came to one of our meetings. She had a strange disease: everything she ate, she vomited. She had gone to so many doctors, but they said they couldn’t find anything wrong with her, yet she kept suffering. We had not even started to pray for her, we were only shouting “Hallelujah’, and as she opened her mouth to do likewise, something like a worm jumped out of her mouth. She was healed instantly. If there is a sickness in your body, as you shout Hallelujah, God is going to heal you instantly in Jesus’ name.

As many people as came in contact with Jesus were healed. If any man came to Him for healing, Jesus never pushed him away. Once, Jesus was in a very serious meeting when a ruler of a synagogue named Jairus came to Him. Jairus’ daughter was sick and he wanted Jesus to come and heal her. Jesus did not tell him He was busy; He went with him to heal his daughter. Jesus is never too busy to attend to your health. If you call on Him, He will come and heal you.

What is that sickness that seems insurmountable? What is that disease in your life that doctors are saying does not have a cure? My Daddy is healing it now in Jesus’ name. Look up to Jesus. Come to Jesus for your healing and trust in Him. There is no disease or sickness that is too serious for Jesus to heal. If He could bring Lazarus who had died and been in the grave for four days to life, Jesus can heal you too. In the mighty name of Jesus, receive your healing now!

PRAYER POINT:

Heavenly Father, I pray that Your healing hand will rest upon my body now, so that I may rise to glorify You with my health in Jesus' name.

Open Heavens Daily Devotional by Pastor E A. Adeboye

OPEN HEAVENS DAILY DEVOTIONAL

DATE: MONDAY AUGUST 1ST, 2022.

THEME: VICTORY OVER ADVERSITY

MEMORISE: 

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. 

John 16:33 

READ: John 5:4-6

4 For an angel went down at a certain season into the pool and troubled the water: whosoever then first after the troubling of the water stepped in was made whole of whatsoever disease he had.

5 And a certain man was there, which had an infirmity thirty and eight years.

6 When Jesus saw him lie, and knew that he had been now a long time in that case, he saith unto him, Wilt thou be made whole?

MESSAGE

Adversity may be a part of the system of this world, but my daddy – the Creator of the heaven and the earth (Genesis 1:1) – is greater than every adversity. Adversities are seemingly insurmountable circumstances that are greater than the power of man. They are mountains that hinder the progress of a person, a family or a group of people. Some adversities can be so great that the fellow would feel there is no way out. The Israelites faced this kind of adversity when they were delivered from slavery. Pharaoh and his army were coming behind and the Red Sea was right in front of them. The Israelites were afraid because, obviously, there was no way out. Humanly speaking, it was impossible to surmount such a situation. Even Moses did not know what to do until he cried out to God. My Daddy – the Almighty God – made a way where there was no way. For the first time in the history of man, a great body of water parted, and the children of Israel walked through that sea to the other side.

In the name of Jesus, I pray the Almighty God will deliver this kind of victory into your hands this day. This kind of unprecedented and unbelievable victory can only be found in Jesus Christ. The devil may raise storms around you, but Jesus gives absolute victory over every insurmountable situation.

Many years ago, during one of the Holy Ghost Congresses in Nigeria, a woman cried out for help, asking me to pray because she was barren, and her in-laws were not allowing her to enjoy peace in her home. I prayed for her and forgot about it. A year after this, I stood praying for people on a long line, and a woman stood before me, I asked her what she wanted, but she repeatedly said, “Jesus!” I was almost getting impatient. When I asked her again, she said “Jesus”, and explained to me that she was the woman I prayed for a year before about barrenness. Right there before me, she was holding a child with her right hand and one with her left. May God give you this kind of victory today in Jesus’ name.

God gives victory over adversities to His children. If you are yet to surrender your life totally to Jesus Christ, now is the time to do so, and every adversity against you will fall, in the mighty name of Jesus.

PRAYER POINT

Father please, give me victory over every kind of adversity in my life, in Jesus’ name.

BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: Proverbs 21-23

AUTHOR: PASTOR E.A. ADEBOYE 

HYMN 13: MY HOPE IS BUILT ON NOTHING LESS

1 My hope is built on nothing less

Than Jesus Christ, my 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,

Oh, may I then in Him be found;

In Him, my righteousness, alone,

Faultless to stand before the throne.

THEME: TAKE FEEDBACK

MEMORISE: 

He, that being often reproved hardeneth his neck, shall suddenly be destroyed, and that without remedy. 

Proverbs 29:1 

READ: 2 Samuel 12:1 -13

1 And the LORD sent Nathan unto David. And he came unto him, and said unto him, There were two men in one city; the one rich, and the other poor.

2 The rich man had exceeding many flocks and herds:

3 But the poor man had nothing, save one little ewe lamb, which he had bought and nourished up: and it grew up together with him, and with his children; it did eat of his own meat, and drank of his own cup, and lay in his bosom, and was unto him as a daughter.

4 And there came a traveller unto the rich man, and he spared to take of his own flock and of his own herd, to dress for the wayfaring man that was come unto him; but took the poor man's lamb, and dressed it for the man that was come to him.

5 And David's anger was greatly kindled against the man; and he said to Nathan, As the LORD liveth, the man that hath done this thing shall surely die:

6 And he shall restore the lamb fourfold, because he did this thing, and because he had no pity.

7 And Nathan said to David, Thou art the man. Thus saith the LORD God of Israel, I anointed thee king over Israel, and I delivered thee out of the hand of Saul;

8 And I gave thee thy master's house, and thy master's wives into thy bosom, and gave thee the house of Israel and of Judah; and if that had been too little, I would moreover have given unto thee such and such things.

9 Wherefore hast thou despised the commandment of the LORD, to do evil in his sight? thou hast killed Uriah the Hittite with the sword, and hast taken his wife to be thy wife, and hast slain him with the sword of the children of Ammon.

10 Now therefore the sword shall never depart from thine house; because thou hast despised me, and hast taken the wife of Uriah the Hittite to be thy wife.

11 Thus saith the LORD, Behold, I will raise up evil against thee out of thine own house, and I will take thy wives before thine eyes, and give them unto thy neighbour, and he shall lie with thy wives in the sight of this sun.

12 For thou didst it secretly: but I will do this thing before all Israel, and before the sun.

13 And David said unto Nathan, I have sinned against the LORD. And Nathan said unto David, The LORD also hath put away thy sin; thou shalt not die.

MESSAGE

Many a time, we do things that are wrong without knowing it. We just act as we like, whereas we are hurting other people or exhibiting a bad attitude. Those who are wise listen when people correct them and take to correction where appropriate. Those who are foolish however make excuses and ignore the correction. When we study the life of David and Saul, we will see the lot of the wise and the foolish ones. When Saul did wrong and Samuel corrected him, he made excuses and even tore Samuel’s garment in his refusal to take to correction in the presence of his subjects (1 Samuel 15:13-27). For David on the other hand, when Prophet Nathan corrected him, he immediately became sober and did all that he could to right his wrong (2 Samuel 12:15-18). At the end of the day, we see one of the reasons why God rejected Saul and loved David – their attitude to correction.

When people tell you that you get angry easily and you say, “No, I don’t get angry easily, it is just some useless people around me that get me angry”, or that you are lazy and sleep too much, but you respond, “The body is not wood; it needs rest once in a while, after all even Jesus slept while He was here on earth”, or even that you talk too much and you say, “Do you want me to become dumb?” then you have a problem and you must attend to it immediately. When God sends people to a person yet he or she keeps giving excuses, our memory verse for today says that the fellow would suddenly be destroyed and that destruction will be without remedy. If you want to see an example of this, look at Saul. The bible says in 1 Samuel 3:19 that God so honored the word of Prophet Samuel that not a word of his fell to the ground without being fulfilled, but when Samuel was pleading on behalf of Saul, God told him to stop wasting his time as He already found a replacement for him. (1 Samuel 16:1).

That little behavior that your spouse, boss, colleague, family members or neighbor have been correcting you about can either make or mar you; it depends on whether you take the correction or not. That little thing can bring irredeemable destruction if you are not careful. A word is enough for the wise.

REFLECTION

What are those things people have been telling you that you need to correct? Take the feedback today and begin to make necessary corrections in line with God's word.

THEME: UNTIL YOUR JOY BE FULL II

MEMORISED: 

I waited patiently for the LORD; and he inclined unto me, and heard my cry. 

Psalms 40:1 

READ: Psalms 40:1-5

1  I waited patiently for the LORD; and he inclined unto me, and heard my cry.

2 He brought me up also out of an horrible pit, out of the miry clay, and set my feet upon a rock, and established my goings.

3 And he hath put a new song in my mouth, even praise unto our God: many shall see it, and fear, and shall trust in the LORD.

4 Blessed is that man that maketh the LORD his trust, and respecteth not the proud, nor such as turn aside to lies.

5 Many, O LORD my God, are thy wonderful works which thou hast done, and thy thoughts which are to us-ward: they cannot be reckoned up in order unto thee: if I would declare and speak of them, they are more than can be numbered.

MESSAGE

Many years ago in my home town, we needed to dig a well, so we called someone to do the job. After he had dug for so long and did not hit water, he gave up. Since our agreement was that we would pay him when he found water, he gave up the money too. We then called someone else to finish the job. The fellow also negotiated his pay and we agreed. The newly hired man continued from where the first man had left off and just as his digger hit the ground, water gushed out. Before long, he was done with his job and he collected all the money that the other fellow would have collected, without doing as much work. You may just be one prayer away from receiving your answer. If you stop praying now, all the time and effort invested in praying over that matter may go to waste.

God can never withhold anything good from His children (Luke 11:11-13). He actually even wants better things for you that you can pray for. There may be things you have been asking Him for over a period of time; don’t worry, He can hear you and will answer in due time. when I was still living in the house that is now called Open Heavens International Centre, my prayer room was more accessible to the children, but whenever I was in there, nobody dared disturb me except my youngest child who would come in anytime he wanted me to give him some cookies. Sometimes I would ignore him, hoping that he would leave me alone, but he would not give up. At last, I would realize that if I really wanted to pray, I would have to get up from my prayers and attend to him first. Can you keep asking God for what you want until He says, “I had better give this boy/girl what he/she wants so that I can rest”? Certain destiny-changing miracles will not take place until you are ready to tell God, “I will not let You go unless You bless me” like Jacob did. Ask your spouse to pray along with you whenever you seem to be getting weary in praying over a particular matter. If you are not married, look for a Christian, preferably of the same gender, who can pray with you, so the person’s iron may sharpen yours (Proverbs 27:17).

If what you are asking for is the will of God and you don’t give up, your answer will come in due season.

ACTION POINT

Pray without ceasing.

BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: Proverbs 14-16

AUTHOR: PASTOR E.A. ADEBOYE 

HYMN 22: SWEET HOUR OF PRAYER

1. Sweet hour of prayer! 

Sweet hour of prayer! 

That calls me from a world of care, 

And bids me at my Father's throne

Make all my wants and wishes known. 

In seasons of distress and grief, 

My soul has often found relief, 

And oft escape the tempter's snare 

By thy return, sweet hour of prayer! 

2. Sweet hour of prayer! 

Sweet hour of prayer! 

Thy wings shall my petition bear 

To him whose truth and faithfulness

Engage the waiting soul to bless; 

And since He bids me seek His face

Believe His word, and trust His grace, 

I'll cast on Him my every care, 

And wait for thee, sweet hour of prayer! 

3. Sweet hour of prayer! 

Sweet hour of prayer! 

May I thy consolation share

Till, from mount Pisgah's lofty height, 

I view my home and take my flight; 

This robe of flesh I'll drop, and rise 

To seize the ever lasting prize 

And shout while passing through the air, 

Farewell, farewell, sweet hour of prayer.

DATE: FRIDAY JULY 29TH, 2022.

THEME: UNTIL YOUR JOY BE FULL 1

MEMORISE: 

And he spake a parable unto them to this end, that men ought always to pray, and not to faint;

Luke 18:1

READ: Luke 18:1 -8

1 And he spake a parable unto them to this end, that men ought always to pray, and not to faint;

2 Saying, There was in a city a judge, which feared not God, neither regarded man:

3 And there was a widow in that city; and she came unto him, saying, Avenge me of mine adversary.

4 And he would not for a while: but afterward he said within himself, Though I fear not God, nor regard man;

5 Yet because this widow troubleth me, I will avenge her, lest by her continual coming she weary me.

6 And the Lord said, Hear what the unjust judge saith.

7 And shall not God avenge his own elect, which cry day and night unto him, though he bear long with them?

8 I tell you that he will avenge them speedily. Nevertheless when the Son of man cometh, shall he find faith on the earth?

MESSAGE

The wicked judge never respected anyone. He never deferred to anyone. However as this poor widow troubled him relentlessly with her cry for justice, we see that the judge who was wicked had to response to her so that he could rest. Many children of God give up on their prayer before God responds to them. If that woman had stopped knocking just at the point at which the judge was deciding to grant her request, she would not have had justice. Many Christian were only one more prayer away when they gave up and lost their miracle. Sometimes you pray once and God will answer immediately, but at other times, you need to keep pressing in the spirit for your answer to come. If you stop pressing at some point, the answer may not come. That is why the concluding part of John 16:24 says:

…ask, and ye shall receive, that your joy may be full.

I know that sometimes God wants you to keep praying, not because He doesn’t want to answer, but because there is something He wants to perfect in you and that thing can only be completed when you press deeper into the spirit.

Knowing this, that the trying of your faith worketh patience. But let patience have her perfect work, that ye may be perfect and entire, wanting nothing.  

James 1:3-4

I can tell you for sure: if God had answered all my prayers the very first time I asked, I would not be as deeply involved with Him as I am today. Prayer is more a blessing for us, than it is for God. You must always remember that prayer does not change who God is, prayer changes you. The more you pray and commit to prayer, the more strengthened you become as a Christian. There may be things you want God to do for you; even if those things are yet to come, don’t ever give up praying. God is not reluctant to give you what you asked for, but with your constant prayer in faith, you’re building a cloud of blessings that will soon break out upon you. Until your joy is full, don’t stop knocking on heaven’s door. Keep pressing in the spirit until your answer comes.

ACTION POINT

What are those things you have stopped praying for now simply because the answer didn't come? List them out now and begin to include them in your daily prayers again.

BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: Proverbs 12-13

HYMN12: MY FAITH LOOKS 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!
