Open Heaven Daily Devotional by Pastor E.A. Adeboye

OPEN HEAVENS DAILY DEVOTIONAL 


DATE: WEDNESDAY JANUARY 25TH, 2023.


THEME: FLAMES OF FIRE V


MEMORISE: 

Then Paul answered, What mean ye to weep and to break mine heart? for I am ready not to be bound only, but also to die at Jerusalem for the name of the Lord Jesus. 

Acts 21:13


READ: Acts 21:4 -13

4 And finding disciples, we tarried there seven days: who said to Paul through the Spirit, that he should not go up to Jerusalem.


5 And when we had accomplished those days, we departed and went our way; and they all brought us on our way, with wives and children, till we were out of the city: and we kneeled down on the shore, and prayed.


6 And when we had taken our leave one of another, we took ship; and they returned home again.


7 And when we had finished our course from Tyre, we came to Ptolemais, and saluted the brethren, and abode with them one day.


8 And the next day we that were of Paul's company departed, and came unto Caesarea: and we entered into the house of Philip the evangelist, which was one of the seven; and abode with him.


9 And the same man had four daughters, virgins, which did prophesy.


10 And as we tarried there many days, there came down from Judaea a certain prophet, named Agabus.


11 And when he was come unto us, he took Paul's girdle, and bound his own hands and feet, and said, Thus saith the Holy Ghost, So shall the Jews at Jerusalem bind the man that owneth this girdle, and shall deliver him into the hands of the Gentiles.


Acts 21:12 And when we heard these things, both we, and they of that place, besought him not to go up to Jerusalem.


13 Then Paul answered, What mean ye to weep and to break mine heart? for I am ready not to be bound only, but also to die at Jerusalem for the name of the Lord Jesus.


MESSAGE

Fire is relentless; once it starts, it could take over its entire surroundings if not well controlled. It just keeps going, clearing off anything that is on its path. As we see in our Bible reading today, Paul did not allow anything at all to discourage him from working for God. In another instance (Acts 13:6-12), Paul was trying to preach to a governor, but Elymas, the sorcerer, tried to convince the man not to accept the gospel. Paul did not get discouraged; he struck the sorcerer with blindness, got him out of the way and won the governor for Christ. Fire is never afraid of whatever stands in its path.


I remember when we first went to the town of Ede in Nigeria to hold a crusade. There were indications of resistance in the spirit realm, but we put our faith in God and were not discouraged. As the programme was starting, it began to rain very heavily. I wasn't bothered; as long as it was rain and not fire falling. I decide we would continue the programme. Suddenly, as the choir was about to step on the stage, it collapsed. There was a brother there who owned a tipper. I told him to drive the tipper into the crusade ground, and it became our stage. We went ahead to hold the programme despite all the challenges we faced. 


Don't be discouraged by all those who are trying to stand in the way of the assignments God has committed into your hands; keep going. If they refuse to move out of your way, they will be consumed in Jesus' name. Be relentless in your pursuit of Kingdom goals. Don't let lack of funds stop you from doing what you want to do for God. Get going; God will provide the funds when you move. Don't let disappointments and betrayals weigh you down;  encourage yourself in the Lord and keep moving (1 Samuel 30:6).


Over the years, so many things have stood in my way - including man-made laws. If those who decide to obstruct me remain in my way, No problem; whatever casualties will result from that will not be my fault. You must be relentless if you really want to be what God has called you to be. You must never let anything stop you.


KEY POINT 

Fire is relentless.


BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: Exodus 31-34


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 by Pastor E.A. Adeboye

OPEN HEAVENS DEVOTIONAL 


DATE:  TUESDAY JANUARY 24TH 2023


THEME:  FLAMES OF FIRE IV


MEMORISE: Iron sharpeneth iron; so a man sharpeneth the countenance of his friend. Proverbs 27:17 


READ: Ecclesiastes 4:9 -12


9 Two are better than one; because they have a good reward for their labour.


10 For if they fall, the one will lift up his fellow: but woe to him that is alone when he falleth; for he hath not another to help him up.


11 Again, if two lie together, then they have heat: but how can one be warm alone?


12 And if one prevail against him, two shall withstand him; and a threefold cord is not quickly broken.


MESSAGE


Fire is very generous. If you ha e one hundred candles to light, all you have to do,is light one of them and that one candle can be used to light the remaining 99. Fire lights up other materials that have the potential to carry it. 


Fire is always looking out for good materials that are flammable. In Deuteronomy 34:9, when Moses saw that Joshua was a good material, he imparted the spirit of wisdom into him. When Elijah saw that Elisha was a good material, he gave him double portion of his power. Who are the good materials that you have noticed around you - people with potential to do exploits for God, if only they could be mentored correctly? Get close to them and heat them up for God. You don't know how far that good material around will burn for God if only you can bring him or her close enough to get some heat from you.


I don't understand how some men of God try to quench the fire of others. Fire does not compete with itself. When fire meets fire, it join forces to impact the environment even more. Is there someone else who carries fire around you? Put denomination aside and join forces to advance the Kingdom of God. Individually there are some obstacles that your fire may be too small to overcome, but when you come  together, you can bring down very high mountains. When one fire seems to go down, the moment it comes in contact with another, the new one rekindles it and makes it burn more. It mazes me that sometimes when children of God see another child of God going cold, they would rejoice and say they are 'minding their business' rather than getting closer to the person and helping to rekindle his or her fire so,that the person can burn even more for God.


Fire burns better when it is in contact with other fires. You and other fires around you will burn better if you come together from time to time to rekindle one another. This is why you find pastors coming together to form associations, so,that everyone can ensure that nobody's fire goes down. Believe me honestly, you will burn better if you don't look away when you, notice that the fire of someone else is going down.


KEY POINT 


Fire is generous and burns better when in contact with other fires.


BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: Exodus 278-30


AUTHOR: PASTOR E. A ADEBOYE 


HYMN 12: ONWARD CHRISTIAN SOLDIERS


1. Onward, Christian soldiers!

Marching as to war,

With the cross of Jesus

Going on before.

Christ, the royal Master,

Leads against the foe;

Forward into battle,

See his banners go!


[Chorus]

Onward, Christian soldiers!Marching as to war,

With the cross of Jesus

Going on before.


2. At the sign of triumph

Satan’s host doth flee;

On, then, Christian soldiers,

On to victory.

Hell’s foundations quiver

At the shout of praise;

Brothers, lift your voices,

Loud your anthems raise.


3. Like a mighty army

Moves the Church of God;

Brothers, we are treading

Where the Saints have trod.

We are not divided;

All one body we:

One in hope and doctrine,

One in charity.


4. Onward, then, ye people;

Join our happy throng.

Blend with ours your voices

In the triumph song:

Glory, laud, and honor

Unto Christ, the King.

This through countless ages

Men and angels sing.

THEME: FLAMES OF FIRE III


MEMORISE: 

Neither do men light a candle, and put it under a bushel, but on a candlestick; and it giveth light unto all that are in the house. 

Matthew 5:15


READ: Mark 16:15 -20

15 And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature.


16 He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved; but he that believeth not shall be damned.


17 And these signs shall follow them that believe; In my name shall they cast out devils; they shall speak with new tongues;


18 They shall take up serpents; and if they drink any deadly thing, it shall not hurt them; they shall lay hands on the sick, and they shall recover.


19 So then after the Lord had spoken unto them, he was received up into heaven, and sat on the right hand of God.


20 And they went forth, and preached every where, the Lord working with them, and confirming the word with signs following. Amen.


MESSAGE

Fire cannot be ignored; it always affects its environment. Wherever fire is, everyone around there feels it's heat and whatever comes in contact with it would either be consumed or become fire too. If there is little fire somewhere and you throw some sheets of paper at it, they will catch fire themselves. I am charging all believers today. It is okay when you have just come into a school to say, "Oh, we are surrounded by sinners" but after three months, it would be a shame if they are all still sinners. How can you be in an office for three years with everybody there remaining the same? Fire compels everything around it to become like it. If you have not been preaching the gospel to the people around you, where is your heat? Why have you gone so cold?


In 1 Kings 18:36-39, when Elijah demonstrated that he is fire, the whole nation fell on their faces and said, "Your God is God". In Acts 16:25-34, when Paul and Silas were thrown into jail, by the time Paul and Silas had demonstrated that they are fire, the jailer humbled himself and said, "Tell me what l must do to be saved". I pray you will receive the ability to demonstrate the power of God in your environment now in Jesus' name. Shining your light would, however, require personal sacrifices. You must spend time praying and dwelling in the presence of God. You would need to fast and study your Bible regularly.


Don't shy away from opportunity to show that you are fire. When a classmate tells you they are not feeling fine, don't suggest medication, lay hands on them and pray for their healing. By the time the fellow gets healed, he or she would spread the news to others and before you know it, you would have won your faculty over to the Lord. Is there any of your colleagues who is looking up to God for the fruit of the womb? See it as an opportunity to preach Christ to your entire office. Pray for the fellow and assure them that they will carry their babies in nine months. When God does the miracle, everyone will know that your God is real and they will bow to Him.


ACTION POINT 

Ensure that everyone who come in contact with you hears the gospel of the Lord Jesus Christ.
