Open Heavens Daily Devotional by Pastor E.A. Adeboye

OPEN HEAVENS DAILY DEVOTIONAL 

DATE: SATURDAY FEBRUARY 25TH, 2023.

THEME: GOD WANTS YOU TO PROSPER

MEMORISE: 

Let them shout for joy, and be glad, that favour my righteous cause: yea, let them say continually, Let the LORD be magnified, which hath pleasure in the prosperity of his servant. 

Psalms 35:27

READ: Genesis 26:12 -14

12 Then Isaac sowed in that land, and received in the same year an hundredfold: and the LORD blessed him.

13 And the man waxed great, and went forward, and grew until he became very great:

14 For he had possession of flocks, and possession of herds, and great store of servants: and the Philistines envied him.

3 John 1:2 

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

MESSAGE

In John 10:10, Jesus Christ promised that He came that we may have life and have it more abundantly. Furthermore in Psalm 68:19, the Bible says that God daily loads us with benefits. God wants you to prosper because the Bible says clearly in Proverbs 10:15 that the destruction of the poor is their poverty. You will not be destroyed, in Jesus' name. 1 Timothy 6:10 says clearly that it is the love of money, and not money itself, that is the root of all evil.

God wants you to prosper because His plan for your life is that you will be a blessing. You cannot be a blessing to others if you are not blessed. If you have nothing to eat, how are you going to feed the poor? I decree into your life: you will prosper, in the mighty name of Jesus!

Some preachers talk about the story of Lazarus and the rich man in Luke 16:19-31, saying because the rich went to hell while Lazarus the beggar was carried into Abraham's bossom, then rich people will all go to hell while only the poor will go to heaven. The conclusion is not in line with the story. When you study the passage very well you would see that the rich man pleaded for Lazarus to go back to earth to preach to his brothers but; Father Abraham responded that if His brethren did not listen to the prophets, they would not listen to Lazarus either. It is therefore clear that it is not wealth that sent the rich man to hell, but rather his refusal to listen to the prophets.

John 3:1-16 shows clearly that the way to make it to heaven is to be born again. It doesn't matter whether you are rich or poor; if you are not born again you are going to spend eternity in the lake of fire. You can be the richest person in the world and go to heaven if you are born again; you can be the poorest fellow in the world and go to hell if you refuse to surrender your life to Jesus.

Proverbs 10:22 states clearly that the blessing of the Lord maketh rich and addeth no sorrow. You cannot end up in hell when your wealth comes from the Lord, and you live according to His will.

KEY POINT

Poverty is not a visa to heaven and wealth is not a visa to hell.

BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: Deuteronomy 12-15

AUTHOR: PASTOR E.A. ADEBOYE 

HYMN 26: THERE SHALL BE SHOWERS OF BLESSINGS 

1 There shall be showers of blessing:

This is the promise of love;

There shall be seasons refreshing,

Sent from the Savior above.

Refrain:

Showers of blessing,

Showers of blessing we need; 

Mercy-drops round us are falling,

But for the showers we plead.

2 There shall be showers of blessing—

Precious reviving again;

Over the hills and the valleys,

Sound of abundance of rain.

3 There shall be showers of blessing;

Send them upon us, O Lord!

Grant to us now a refreshing;

Come, and now honor Thy Word.

4 There shall be showers of blessing;

O that today they might fall,

Now as to God we’re confessing,

Now as on Jesus we call!

5 There shall be showers of blessing,

If we but trust and obey;

There shall be seasons refreshing,

If we let God have His way.

OPEN HEAVENS DAILY DEVOTIONAL 

DATE: FRIDAY FEBRUARY 24TH, 2023.

THEME: GROWING YOUR FAITH IV

MEMORISE: 

But ye, beloved, building up yourselves on your most holy faith, praying in the Holy Ghost, 

Jude 1:20

READ: 1 Corinthians 14:14 -15

14 For if I pray in an unknown tongue, my spirit prayeth, but my understanding is unfruitful.

15 What is it then? I will pray with the spirit, and I will pray with the understanding also: I will sing with the spirit, and I will sing with the understanding also.

MESSAGE

For if l pray in an unknown tongue, my spirit prayeth, but my understanding is unfruitful.

Each time you are praying in the Holy Spirit, you are praying by faith because you usually wouldn't understand what you are saying. In other words, when you are praying in the Holy Spirit you are exercising your faith. Physical muscles grow by exercise; likewise spiritual muscles. Faith is your spiritual muscle; you grow it by praying in tongues.

It is amazing how many Christians, including Pentecostals don't pray regularly in the Holy Ghost, and because of this, their faith has remained stunted. The more you pray in the. Holy Spirit, the greater your faith and the brighter your future.

If you have not yet experienced the baptism of the Holy Spirit, l pray that you will get it today, in Jesus' name. If you have been baptised and have not been exercising your baptism, you must begin to do so.

On the day of Pentecost, when Peter preached a great sermon after he got baptised in the Holy Spirit, the people came to him and said, "Sir, what must we do" and he laid it out for them as seen in Acts 2:38:

Then Peter said unto them, Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and he shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost.

Peter informed them that the first step, is repentance, the second is water baptism, and the third is to receive the Holy Spirit. This same Peter is the one who had given up on his dream to become a fisher of men. He preached and won three thousand souls the day he started speaking in tongues. His ambitions came alive after he was baptised in the Holy Ghost. After that, there was no going back. He kept getting greater and greater until even his shadow was healing the sick. Your dreams can also come alive if you pray in tongues regularly.

ACTION POINT

Pray in tongues for at least one hour today and make it a regular practice.

BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: Deuteronomy 9-11

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 escaped the tempter's snare 

by thy return, sweet hour of prayer! 

2 Sweet hour of prayer! sweet hour of prayer! 

the joys I feel, the bliss I share 

of those whose anxious spirits burn 

with strong desires for thy return! 

With such I hasten to the place 

where God my Savior shows his face, 

and gladly take my station there, 

and wait for thee, sweet hour of prayer! 

3 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!

OPEN HEAVENS DAILY DEVOTIONAL 

DATE: THURSDAY FEBRUARY 23RD, 2023.

THEME: GROWING YOUR FAITH III

MEMORISE: 

For the wrath of man worketh not the righteousness of God. 

James 1:20

READ: James 1:22 -25

22 But be ye doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving your own selves.

23 For if any be a hearer of the word, and not a doer, he is like unto a man beholding his natural face in a glass:

24 For he beholdeth himself, and goeth his way, and straightway forgetteth what manner of man he was.

25 But whoso looketh into the perfect law of liberty, and continueth therein, he being not a forgetful hearer, but a doer of the work, this man shall be blessed in his deed.

MESSAGE

After studying God's word, memorising and meditating on it, you must ensure that you act on it so your faith can grow. Our Bible reading for today says clearly that we must not be hearers only, but doers also. In fact, verse 25 says that if you are a doer of the word, you will be blessed indeed. In other words, the more you apply the word, the more blessed you become.

While faithfulness is a noun, faith is a verb. If you truly believe, it will show in your actions (James 2:26). After you have meditated on something you read in the Bible, the next thing you are to do, is to apply it. Make a move in line with what has been revealed to you in the word.

When you read Proverbs 21:13 that says you should not close your ears to the cry of the poor, do you apply it? When you read Deuteronomy 28:7 that says that if your enemies gather against you in one way, they will be scattered in seven, do you still fret at the sight of them?

When you apply the lessons you draw from the word of God, your faith will begin to grow. Very soon, little faith will become great faith and great faith will become very great faith. All you have to do, is practice what you learn.

I didn't start out with the level of faith l now have. I remember very well when l had just got born again; my Sunday School teacher taught us then that if a little boy is on a roof and his father tells him to jump down, promising to catch him, the boy would jump. He said in the same vein, when God ask us to jump, we should just jump and He would catch us. I meditated over that deeply; since then, l have been jumping and God has been catching me. So many times, l start projects not because l have the funds required to complete them, but because I know that God will 'catch me' and he has never failed. For every time He showed up, my faith grew and my dreams became bigger. I keep going for bigger mountains because I am sure that He lives and is supporting me all the way.

REFLECTION

Have you been practicing the things that you have been learning from the word of God.

BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: Deuteronomy 5-8

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.

THEME: GROWING YOUR FAITH II

MEMORISE: 

This book of the law shall not depart out of thy mouth; but thou shalt meditate therein day and night, that thou mayest observe to do according to all that is written therein: for then thou shalt make thy way prosperous, and then thou shalt have good success. 

Joshua 1:8 

READ: Psalms 1:1 -3

1 Blessed is the man that walketh not in the counsel of the ungodly, nor standeth in the way of sinners, nor sitteth in the seat of the scornful.

2 But his delight is in the law of the LORD; and in his law doth he meditate day and night.

3 And he shall be like a tree planted by the rivers of water, that bringeth forth his fruit in his season; his leaf also shall not wither; and whatsoever he doeth shall prosper.

MESSAGE

As we continue today with the study on how to grow your faith, we will be focusing on memorising and meditating on the word of God. 

Let us consider David. He was a shepherd boy who was not even invited when his brothers were summoned into the army, yet he dared to dream big enough to fight and defeat a giant the entire Israeli military was scared of (1 Samuel 17).

One of the major secrets of David success lies in this statement he made in Psalm 119:11: "Thy word have l hid in mine heart, that l might not sin against thee".  This was another way of him saying, "I memorise the word of God". No wonder he is recognized today as one of the greatest Kings lsrael has ever had.

A child once asked me, "How is it that you know the Bible so much?" My response was, "Because l memorise it". When l got born again, l started memorising just one verse per week. In the Sunday School pamphlet, there is a memory verse for the week. One memory verse a week means 52 memory verse in a year. Since l have been born again since 1973, do that calculation and you will have an idea of how many memory verses I have stored up, in my heart. Just one little effort every week and as year rolls after year, you would have memorised so many Scriptures and your faith would have grown greatly.

You must also meditate on the word of God. By meditating, you are turning it over on every side. Just like a cow would eat grass and then go and lay down in a corner to regurgitate and chew it little by little, you need to go over the word that you have memorised in tiny bits again and again, so as to keep getting deeper revelations that would foster or boost faith. This will in turn bring good success.

Psalm 1:1-3 says to be blessed, you must meditate on the word day and night. You see, the word of God is God Himself (John 1:1), so when you meditate on it, you are actually exploring God Himself. Memorise and meditate on the word of God daily and your faith will grow exponentially.

ACTION POINT

Memorise and meditate on God's word daily.

BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: Deuteronomy 3-4
