Open Heavens Daily Devotional by Pastor E.A. Adeboye

OPEN HEAVENS DAILY DEVOTIONAL 

DATE: SATURDAY JANUARY 21ST, 2023.

THEME: FLAMES OF FIRE

MEMORISE: 

And of the angels he saith, Who maketh his angels spirits, and his ministers a flame of fire. 

Hebrews 1:7 

READ: Luke 6:43 -45

43 For a good tree bringeth not forth corrupt fruit; neither doth a corrupt tree bring forth good fruit.

44 For every tree is known by his own fruit. For of thorns men do not gather figs, nor of a bramble bush gather they grapes.

45 A good man out of the good treasure of his heart bringeth forth that which is good; and an evil man out of the evil treasure of his heart bringeth forth that which is evil: for of the abundance of the heart his mouth speaketh.

MESSAGE

The teaching series of flames of fire' is meant for everyone; however, l'll encourage youths to pay extra attention.

There are four basic elements in the world - water, earth, air and fire, each of which is very important to human existence. As important as all these elements are however, it is interesting that God chose to make His ministers flames of fire.

Let us discuss some characteristics of fire. The first thing about fire is that it is distinct. When you see fire, you recognize it immediately. In 2 Kings 1:8, the king was sick and sent his servants to enquire from some idol worshippers whether he would recover or not, only for them to meet a man on the way who sent them back to the king with a message that he would die. Once the messengers described the man, the king said, "That is Elijah". Fire is uniquely distinct and you cannot mistake it for anything else.

People should be able to see a child of God and say, "This is a child of God". These days, many people say, "Oh, it's not about the outward appearance, God is only interested in what is on the inside". One day while teaching at the Bible College, l brought two oranges - one green and one yellow, and asked the students to identify the ripe one. They all pointed to the yellow one, explaining that, from the way it look, it was clear that it was  the ripe one.

Fire has a distinct look, when you see it, you would know it. Don't believe the lie that God is not interested in your outward appearance - He is. While it is true that He cannot be deceived by your outward appearance as He said in 1 Samuel 16:7, His word says that what you are on the inside will show on the outside. Matthew 23:26 says:

Thou blind Pharisee, cleanse first that which is within the cup and platter, that the outside of them may be clean also.

You cannot claim, as a minister, that you are a flame of fire when you don't look it. You cannot claim you are a child of God, yet dress and look like people of the world. If you need to tell people that you are a child of God before they believe it, you are not yet a flame of fire.

KEY POINT

If you need to tell people that you are a child of God before they see you as one, you are not yet a flame of fire.

BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: Exodus 17-20

AUTHOR: PASTOR E.A. ADEBOYE 

HYMN 20: STAND UP,STAND UP FOR JESUS

1 Stand up, stand up for Jesus

ye soldiers of the cross;

lift high his royal banner,

it must not suffer loss.

From vict'ry unto vict'ry

his army he shall lead

till ev'ry foe is vanquished

and Christ is Lord indeed.

2 Stand up, stand up for Jesus,

the trumpet call obey;

forth to the mighty conflict

in this his glorious day.

Ye that are men now serve him

against unnumbered foes;

let courage rise with danger

and strength to strength oppose.

3 Stand up, stand up for Jesus,

stand in his strength alone;

the arm of flesh will fail you,

ye dare not trust your own.

Put on the gospel armor,

each piece put on with prayer;

where duty calls or danger,

be never wanting there.

4 Stand up, stand up for Jesus,

the strife will not be long;

this day the noise of battle,

the next, the victor's song.

To him that overcometh

a crown of life shall be;

he with the King of glory

shall reign eternally.

OPEN HEAVENS DAILY DEVOTIONAL 

DATE: FRIDAY JANUARY 20TH, 2023.

THEME: SET THE RIGHT EXAMPLE

MEMORISE: 

But in a great house there are not only vessels of gold and of silver, but also of wood and of earth; and some to honour, and some to dishonour. 

2 Corinthians 2:20 

READ: 2 Timothy 2:19 -21

19 Nevertheless the foundation of God standeth sure, having this seal, The Lord knoweth them that are his. And, Let every one that nameth the name of Christ depart from iniquity.

20 But in a great house there are not only vessels of gold and of silver, but also of wood and of earth; and some to honour, and some to dishonour.

21 If a man therefore purge himself from these, he shall be a vessel unto honour, sanctified, and meet for the master's use, and prepared unto every good work.

MESSAGE

Following our discussion which started yesterday, the second question that you should ask yourself is "What kind of example am l going to be for those coming behind me?" You see God can raise somebody and promote him or her greatly, but when the fellow makes a mistake and crashes, he or she becomes an example for others to learn from, so as not to make the same mistake. If you read 1 Corinthians 10:11 carefully, you would see that verses 1-4 were dedicated to describing the investments that God had made in the people of Israel, then the rest of the passage goes on to list how many of them became examples for those of us coming after. God is making investments in you now. He is making sure that you read and hear certain messages, He is promoting you and doing miracles for you now; what will be the outcome of all these? Will you be used as a good example later in future or a bad one?

But with many of them God was not well pleased: for they were overthrown in the wilderness.

1 Corinthians 10:5

The verse above says God was not pleased with many of them. The truth is that not many people will end up as good examples; most will end up as bad ones because only a few will be violent enough to take the Kingdom of God by force (Matthew 11:12). The devil will throw a lot of temptations your way. Some of them will come as harmless suggestions, but you have to be fully ready to submit to the Lord and resist the devil so that he would flee (James 4:7).

As we see in our Bible reading of today, purge yourself of all unrighteousness so you can set the right examples for those coming behind you. Ask the Holy Spirit for help. You must never get to the point where you feel you have enough of the Holy Spirit. Only the Holy Spirit can keep you from falling; embrace Him like your life depends on it, because it actually does.

PRAYER POINT

Father, don't let me end up as a bad example to those coming after me.

BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: Exodus 14-16

AUTHOR: PASTOR E.A. ADEBOYE 

HYMN 28: WHAT CAN WASH AWAY MY SIN 

1 What can wash away my sin?

Nothing but the blood of Jesus;

What can make me whole again?

Nothing but the blood of Jesus.

Refrain:

Oh! precious is the flow

That makes me white as snow;

No other fount I know,

Nothing but the blood of Jesus.

2 For my cleansing this I see—

Nothing but the blood of Jesus!

For my pardon this my plea—

Nothing but the blood of Jesus!

3 Nothing can my sin erase

Nothing but the blood of Jesus!

Naught of works, ’tis all of grace—

Nothing but the blood of Jesus!

4 This is all my hope and peace—

Nothing but the blood of Jesus!

This is all my righteousness—

Nothing but the blood of Jesus!

OPEN HEAVENS DAILY DEVOTIONAL 

DATE: THURSDAY JANUARY 19TH, 2023.

THEME: LEARN FROM OTHERS

MEMORISE: 

It repenteth me that I have set up Saul to be king: for he is turned back from following me, and hath not performed my commandments. And it grieved Samuel; and he cried unto the LORD all night. 

1 Samuel 15:11 

READ: 1 Corinthians 10:1 -11

1 Moreover, brethren, I would not that ye should be ignorant, how that all our fathers were under the cloud, and all passed through the sea;

2 And were all baptized unto Moses in the cloud and in the sea;

3 And did all eat the same spiritual meat;

4 And did all drink the same spiritual drink: for they drank of that spiritual Rock that followed them: and that Rock was Christ.

5 But with many of them God was not well pleased: for they were overthrown in the wilderness.

6 Now these things were our examples, to the intent we should not lust after evil things, as they also lusted.

7 Neither be ye idolaters, as were some of them; as it is written, The people sat down to eat and drink, and rose up to play.

8 Neither let us commit fornication, as some of them committed, and fell in one day three and twenty thousand.

9 Neither let us tempt Christ, as some of them also tempted, and were destroyed of serpents.

10 Neither murmur ye, as some of them also murmured, and were destroyed of the destroyer.

MESSAGE

It repenteth me that l have set up Saul to be king: for he is turned back from following me, and hath not performed my commandments. And it grieved Samuel; and he cried unto the LORD all night.

1 Samuel 15:11

The first time I read the passage above, it was shocking to me that God would repent. I had read messages in the Bible like Ezekiel 33:14-16 where God said if He says to the wicked that he will die, but the wicked changes his ways, then He wouldn't let him die anymore. However; what is mind-boggling about Saul's case is that this is a different kind of repentance. Of a truth, Saul was a very humble, diligent and responsible young man before he became king. In 1 Samuel 9:3-4, his father sent him on an errand to search for some missing animals. Saul kept searching and was determined not to return home until he found them. God is Alpha and Omega (Revelation 1:8), He knows the end from the beginning (Acts 15:18), how can somebody like that repent of the decision He had made? One day, the Lord used the scripture below to provide an answer to my question.

Now all these things happened unto them for examples: and they are written for our admonition, upon whom the ends of the world are come.

1 Corinthians 10:11

All the stories we read in the Bible, even some of the things happening around us today, are supposed to be lessons to us. One could therefore say that He looks for scapegoats the to use to teach others lesson. Now, there are two questions you should ask yourself from this revelation: first, are you really learning lessons from the examples that God has given you in the Bible and around you? Have you learnt from Judas lscariot's case that greed can destroy a person both here and in eternity? Have you learned from Samson that sexual sins will reduce a strong man to a piece of bread (Proverbs 6:26)? Have you learn from the examples around you?

REFLECTION 

Are you currently indulging in sin? What can you learn from the Bible about the repercussions of that sin.

BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: Exodus 11-13

AUTHOR: PASTOR E.A. ADEBOYE

HYMN 6: I AM SO GLAD THAT OUR FATHER IN HEAV'N

1 I am so glad that our Father in heav’n

Tells of His love in the Book He has giv’n;

Wonderful things in the Bible I see:

This is the dearest, that

Jesus loves me.

Refrain:

I am so glad that Jesus loves me,

Jesus loves me, Jesus loves me;

I am so glad that Jesus loves me,

Jesus loves even me.

2 Though I forget Him and wander away,

Still He doth love me whenever I stray;

Back to His dear loving arms would I flee,

When I remember that Jesus loves me.

3 Oh, if there’s only one song I can sing,

When in His beauty I see the great King,

This shall my song in eternity be:

“Oh, what a wonder that Jesus loves me.”
