THEME: TOUCHING GOD l


MEMORISE: 

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

Matthew 8:3


READ: Mark 5:25 -34

25 And a certain woman, which had an issue of blood twelve years,


26 And had suffered many things of many physicians, and had spent all that she had, and was nothing bettered, but rather grew worse,


27 When she had heard of Jesus, came in the press behind, and touched his garment.


28 For she said, If I may touch but his clothes, I shall be whole.


29 And straightway the fountain of her blood was dried up; and she felt in her body that she was healed of that plague.


30 And Jesus, immediately knowing in himself that virtue had gone out of him, turned him about in the press, and said, Who touched my clothes?


31 And his disciples said unto him, Thou seest the multitude thronging thee, and sayest thou, Who touched me?


32 And he looked round about to see her that had done this thing.


33 But the woman fearing and trembling, knowing what was done in her, came and fell down before him, and told him all the truth.


34 And he said unto her, Daughter, thy faith hath made thee whole; go in peace, and be whole of thy plague.


MESSAGE

Beloved, if God touches you, your life will never remain the same. The issue now is that God has millions of children; how are you sure that He will single you out and touch you in particular? Well, Whether God touches you or you touch God, the result is the same. If a wire carrying electricity drops on a person body or somebody mistakenly touches it, the result will be the same. Our God is a Consuming Fire (Hebrews 12:29). Whether He is the One who touches you or you touch Him, the result,will be the same. In the Bible reading for today, the woman with the issue of blood just touched the hem of Jesus' garment and the Lord said virtue had gone out of Him.


How do you touch God? You can touch Him by faith. In Matthew 8:5-13, the Bible tells us the story of a centurion who came to Jesus saying that he needed his servant to be healed. Jesus said He would come and heal him, but the centurion said He should just speak a word and he knew that his servant would be healed. Jesus said, "I have never seen this kind of faith before, no, not in Israel".


Some time ago, l got a letter from someone who said, "l have a series of problems. I am not asking that you come and pray for me, l am not booking an appointment; l know that if you can just read my letter. I will get my miracles". I read the letter and said to the Lord: "Almighty God, You have to honour this faith". Two weeks later, l got another letter from the same fellow saying, "l know you read my letter because God has done it".


How strong is your faith? Can it touch God? If your faith is not strong enough to touch the Lord, then you need to study and hear the word of God more often. Romans 10:17 says:


So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God.


Just keep consuming God's word, wether it is through the Bible, books or sermons of genuine men and women of God and you will see your faith grow so much that it will touch God and the impossible will become possible in your life.


PRAYER POINT 

Father, help my faith to grow so much that it will touch You, 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 


DATE: SUNDAY NOVEMBER 13TH, 2022.


THEME: GOD REQUIRES DILIGENCE


MEMORISE: 

The soul of the sluggard desireth, and hath nothing: but the soul of the diligent shall be made fat. 

Proverbs 13:4 


READ: Proverbs 6:6 -11

6 Go to the ant, thou sluggard; consider her ways, and be wise:


7 Which having no guide, overseer, or ruler,


8 Provideth her meat in the summer, and gathereth her food in the harvest.


9 How long wilt thou sleep, O sluggard? when wilt thou arise out of thy sleep?


10 Yet a little sleep, a little slumber, a little folding of the hands to sleep:


11 So shall thy poverty come as one that travelleth, and thy want as an armed man.


MESSAGE

Many people assume that God blessing them means that money will just suddenly fall in their laps. That is not true. If you want things to get better. Then as God opens doors, you also need to work diligently. 


A few years ago, l gave someone an assignment in January which he 

Could have completed in 3 months. My plan was to give him another as soon as he completed the first. However, as at September, he was still struggling to finish. There was no way l would give him another. God had opened doors of financial blessings to him, but he refused to be diligent so he only got the blessing from one door.


On the other hand, there was a son of mine who would always ask me to pray for him to have a breakthrough whenever he saw me and l always obliged him. One day l received a letter from him saying he had gotten a big contract. When l saw the amount, l believed he must have mistakenly added more zeros than the actual value. I thought he mistook N500,000:00 for N50,000:00. After some time, to my amazement, l got a cheque from him and a cover note saying, "Daddy, l have paid my tithe, but you are the one who prayed, so here is another 10% for you ". I was shocked to see that he wasn't mistaken after all, so l called him to hear his story. He said that he had executed a project for a state government, and the governor was so impressed with his performance that he invited him to his office and gave him another project that ended poverty in his life.


God wants to answer many people's  prayers, but their lack of diligence has blocked the breakthrough from coming. Luke 16:12 says:

And if ye have not been faithful in that which is another man's, who shall give you that which is your own?


You say your salary where you work is small and you want God to give you a breakthrough so that you will be paying people salaries; however, if you are not faithful in another man's business, how will God give you yours?


KEY POINT 

God requires diligence for your breakthrough to come.

HYMN 3: DEEPER DEEPER IN THE LOVE OF JESUS

1 Deeper, deeper in the love of Jesus

Daily let me go;

Higher, higher in the school of wisdom,

More of grace to know.

And wiser, blessed Lord,

In Thy precious, holy word.


2 Deeper, deeper! blessed Holy Spirit,

Take me deeper still,

Till my life is wholly lost in Jesus,

And His perfect will.


3 Deeper, deeper! tho' it cost hard trials,

Deeper let me go!

Rooted in the holy love of Jesus,

Let me fruitful grow.


4 Deeper, higher, ev'ry day in Jesus,

Till all conflict past,

Finds me conqu’ror, and in His own image

Perfected at last.

THEME: THINGS WILL GET BETTER 


MEMORISE: 

Beloved, I wish above all things that thou mayest prosper and be in health, even as thy soul prospereth. 

3 John 1:2


READ: Colossians 3:1 -17

1 If ye then be risen with Christ, seek those things which are above, where Christ sitteth on the right hand of God.


2 Set your affection on things above, not on things on the earth.


3 For ye are dead, and your life is hid with Christ in God.


4 When Christ, who is our life, shall appear, then shall ye also appear with him in glory.


5 Mortify therefore your members which are upon the earth; fornication, uncleanness, inordinate affection, evil concupiscence, and covetousness, which is idolatry:


6 For which things' sake the wrath of God cometh on the children of disobedience:


7 In the which ye also walked some time, when ye lived in them.


8 But now ye also put off all these; anger, wrath, malice, blasphemy, filthy communication out of your mouth.


9 Lie not one to another, seeing that ye have put off the old man with his deeds;


10 And have put on the new man, which is renewed in knowledge after the image of him that created him:


11 Where there is neither Greek nor Jew, circumcision nor uncircumcision, Barbarian, Scythian, bond nor free: but Christ is all, and in all.


12 Put on therefore, as the elect of God, holy and beloved, bowels of mercies, kindness, humbleness of mind, meekness, longsuffering;


13 Forbearing one another, and forgiving one another, if any man have a quarrel against any: even as Christ forgave you, so also do ye.


14 And above all these things put on charity, which is the bond of perfectness.


15 And let the peace of God rule in your hearts, to the which also ye are called in one body; and be ye thankful.


16 Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly in all wisdom; teaching and admonishing one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing with grace in your hearts to the Lord.


17 And whatsoever ye do in word or deed, do all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God and the Father by him.


MESSAGE

When l got married things were very tough for my family. I had a job, but l was just a teacher in a grammar school. In those days, my wife and l used to struggle over ponmo (cow skin). We would tell each other jokingly, "That piece is too big, you can't eat it alone; let's cut it into two". Those days l recall always reassuring her, My dear don't worry, things won't continue like this. Thank God she believe me and we held on to God. I am standing as a representative of God to tell you today that things will get better for you, in Jesus' name.


3 John 2 says:

Beloved l wish above all things that thou mayst prosper and be in health, even as thy soul prospereth.


I want you to take note that the statement in the Bible verse above was inspired by God to show His children that He indeed wishes above all things that they should prosper. This should assure you completely that you will prosper. He, however, attached a condition to it. The condition is that your soul must be prospering too. How will your soul prosper? I have answered that question with the Bible reading for today. You can read it again, this time around taking notes of the things that you should do for your soul to prosper. 


Believe me honestly, if you live your life in line with the word of God. You will indeed experience all round prosperity.


And all these blessings shall come on thee, and overtake thee, if thou shalt hearken unto the voice of the LORD thy God.


Deuteronomy 28:2


Live holy (Genesis 17:1), be diligent (Proverbs 22:29), sow bountifully (2 Corinthians 9:6), pay your tithes (Malachi 3:10) and see if God will not prosper you. Blessings will indeed pursue and overtake you.


KEY POINT 

God want His children to have all-around prosperity.

HYMN 27: WHEN LIFE'S BILLOW YOU ARE TEMPEST TOSSED


1 When upon life’s billows you are tempest tossed,

When you are discouraged, thinking all is lost,

Count your many blessings name them one by one,

And it will surprise you what the Lord hath done.


Refrain:

Count your blessings, name them one by one;

Count your blessings, see what God hath done;

Count your blessings, name them one by one,

And it will surprise you what the Lord hath done.


2 Are you ever burdened with a load of care?

Does the cross seem heavy you are called to bear?

Count your many blessings, every doubt will fly,

And you will be singing as the days go by.


3 When you look at others with their lands and gold,

Think that Christ has promised you His wealth untold.

Count your many blessings, money cannot buy

Your reward in heaven, nor your Lord on high.


4 So amid the conflict, whether great or small,

Do not be discouraged, God is over all;

Count your many blessings, angels will attend,

Help and comfort give you to your journey’s end.

OPEN HEAVENS DAILY DEVOTIONAL 


DATE: FRIDAY NOVEMBER 11TH,  2022.


THEME: DIVINE VICTORY OVER BARRENNESS


MEMORISE: 

And the woman conceived, and bare a son at that season that Elisha had said unto her, according to the time of life. 

2 Kings 4:17 


READ: Genesis 18:9 -14

9 And they said unto him, Where is Sarah thy wife? And he said, Behold, in the tent.


10 And he said, I will certainly return unto thee according to the time of life; and, lo, Sarah thy wife shall have a son. And Sarah heard it in the tent door, which was behind him.


11 Now Abraham and Sarah were old and well stricken in age; and it ceased to be with Sarah after the manner of women.


12 Therefore Sarah laughed within herself, saying, After I am waxed old shall I have pleasure, my lord being old also?


13 And the LORD said unto Abraham, Wherefore did Sarah laugh, saying, Shall I of a surety bear a child, which am old?


14 Is any thing too hard for the LORD? At the time appointed I will return unto thee, according to the time of life, and Sarah shall have a son.


MESSAGE

In Genesis 18:9-14, God told Abraham that Sarah would have a son within a year, but she laughed, thinking it was impossible because she was too old and had been barren for so long. Even though the promised of child birth seemed completely impossible, Sarah was carrying her baby nine months later. It doesn't matter for how long you have been barren, you will be carrying your babies this time next year in Jesus' name.


Many women in The Redeemed Christian Church of God have given birth long after menopause. This shows that nothing is impossible with the God I serve. No matter how long someone's case of barrenness is, He is able to turn it around.


There was a woman who the doctor said had no womb. The husband's relatives also told him to stop disturbing himself because they had removed his wife's womb spiritually. The couple attended one of our programmes one day and God said l should tell the people that He would give babies to someone in the congregation who had no womb. That month, she became pregnant. Her husband took her abroad to deliver the baby and told the doctor to conduct a Caesarean Section as to avoid complications. After delivery, the doctor searched but didn't see any womb. My Daddy showed the whole world that He can bring something out of nothing. If He could do it for that couple, yours will not be difficult for him.


In 2 Kings 4:8-17, the Bible tells us that when Elisha told the Shunamite woman that she would have a son, she said, "Man of God, do not deceive me." In other words, she told him not to lie to her. The devil wants you to feel that God can be a liar. God will prove Himself to you that He doesn't lie. In 1 Samuel 1:1-6, the Bible call Peninnah an adversary; she constantly mocked Hannah about her barrenness. When the Almighty God moved in, she was silenced. Anyone who is already mocking you now will soon come and rejoice with you, in Jesus' name.


Barrenness can make a person lose desire to stay alive. In Genesis 30:1-2, Rachel said to her husband, "Give me a son or l die". The good news for you is that fruitlessness of all kinds - financial, academic, physical, and spiritual - will become a thing of the past in your life, in Jesus' name.


REFLECTION 

In which area of your life are you trusting God for fruitfulness? Pray to Him about it now. He will hear you, in Jesus name.

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.
