OPEN HEAVENS DAILY DEVOTIONAL 

DATE: TUESDAY  MARCH 7TH, 2023.

THEME: THE STORM STILLER

MEMORISE: 

And he arose, and rebuked the wind, and said unto the sea, Peace, be still. And the wind ceased, and there was a great calm. 

Mark 4:39 

READ: Mark 4:35 -41

35 And the same day, when the even was come, he saith unto them, Let us pass over unto the other side.

36 And when they had sent away the multitude, they took him even as he was in the ship. And there were also with him other little ships.

37 And there arose a great storm of wind, and the waves beat into the ship, so that it was now full.

38 And he was in the hinder part of the ship, asleep on a pillow: and they awake him, and say unto him, Master, carest thou not that we perish?

39 And he arose, and rebuked the wind, and said unto the sea, Peace, be still. And the wind ceased, and there was a great calm.

40 And he said unto them, Why are ye so fearful? how is it that ye have no faith?

41 And they feared exceedingly, and said one to another, What manner of man is this, that even the wind and the sea obey him?

MESSAGE

A storm is a problem so big and weighty that no one can single-handedly resolve it. However, storms can be stilled, and from my study of the Scriptures, such an occurrence is the result of the collaboration between God and man.

When a storm was brewing at the wedding in Cana of Galilee, there was a need for the servants to collaborate with Jesus in order to still it (John 2:1-10). If they had argued about pouring water inside a pot and taking a cup of it to the Chairman of the wedding, the storm would not have been  stilled.

When the prophet's widow in 2 Kings 4:1-7 was hit with a storm that would have taken away her sons, she was told to borrow many empty vessels into which she was to pour her little oil. That instruction did not make any sense but she did her part by obeying and God did His by multiplying the oil. If you can collaborate with God, He can help you still any storm.

Some years ago while preparing for a programme in the North, l was told how the sandstorms there could get so bad that there would be no visibility at all. I said, "l See". That evening, while holding the programme outside as the crowd was too much for the little Church, a sandstorm suddenly started and people began to panic. I then heard my Father say to me, "Stretch your hand and say, "Peace". I did just that and immediately, the wind stooped, the sand fell back to the ground and we had a wonderful programme. In Mark 4:35-4, the Lord and His disciples were travelling in a boat when a storm arose. The Lord got up and stilled the storm, but then asked, "Why are ye so fearful? how is it that ye have no faith?"

Is there a storm in your life that has threatened you for long? The question for you is, "How is it that you have no faith?" Don't you know that, if you would only collaborate with God, you would still that storm? Go to God in prayer and stay in His presence until He tells you what to do to still that storm. A man or woman of God should not be frightened by a storm. He or she should simply speak peace to the storm in the name of Jesus and it would become still.

PRAYER POINT

Father, please tell me what to do to still the storm (mention the storm) in my life and family, in Jesus name.

BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: Joshua 8-10

AUTHOR: PASTOR E.A. ADEBOYE 

HYMN 9: IMMORTAL, INVISIBLE GOD ONLY WISE

1 Immortal, invisible, God only wise,

in light inaccessible hid from our eyes,

most blessed, most glorious, the Ancient of Days,

almighty, victorious, thy great name we praise.

2 Unresting, unhasting, and silent as light,

nor wanting, nor wasting, thou rulest in might;

thy justice like mountains high soaring above

thy clouds, which are fountains of goodness and love.

3 To all life thou givest, to both great and small;

in all life thou livest, the true life of all;

we blossom and flourish as leaves on the tree,

and wither and perish but naught changeth thee.

4 Great Father of glory, pure Father of light,

thine angels adore thee, all veiling their sight;

all praise we would render, O help us to see

'tis only the splendor of light hideth thee.

DATE: MONDAY MARCH 6TH, 2023.

THEME: DIVINE PROMOTION II

MEMORISE: 

And David said unto Michal, It was before the LORD, which chose me before thy father, and before all his house, to appoint me ruler over the people of the LORD, over Israel: therefore will I play before the LORD. 

2 Samuel 6:21 

READ: 2 Samuel 6:20 Then David returned to bless his household. And Michal the daughter of Saul came out to meet David, and said, How glorious was the king of Israel to day, who uncovered himself to day in the eyes of the handmaids of his servants, as one of the vain fellows shamelessly uncovereth himself!

2 Samuel 6:21 And David said unto Michal, It was before the LORD, which chose me before thy father, and before all his house, to appoint me ruler over the people of the LORD, over Israel: therefore will I play before the LORD.

2 Samuel 6:22 And I will yet be more vile than thus, and will be base in mine own sight: and of the maidservants which thou hast spoken of, of them shall I be had in honour.

2 Samuel 6:23 Therefore Michal the daughter of Saul had no child unto the day of her death.

MESSAGE

Beyond the willingness to do the Lord's will, another thing we notice about people who God promotes is that they are very humble. They don't regard themselves more highly than they ought. In today's Bible reading, we see the same trait in Michal as was in her father, because just like Saul, she cared so much about what people thought, whereas David's focus was on giving praise to the Lord who made him king. If you can be humble enough to praise God in whatever way you can in front of people, if you don't think too highly of yourself, He will keep promoting you.

As far as God is concerned, the one who should be at the top should be able to wash the feet of his subordinates, not one who wants everyone to see and regard him above them all. Mark 10:44 says, "And whosoever of you will be the chiefest, shall be servant of all."

When you are full of pride, God will resist you rather than lift you  (James 4:6). If you really want to experience divine promotion, you must humble yourself before the Lord.

Humble yourselves therefore under the mighty hand of God, that he may exalt you in due time.

1 Peter 5:6

Furthermore, James 4:10 says, "Humble yourselves in the sight of the Lord, and he shall lift you up."

One day, God showed me a vision of two graphs. The graphs look like two mountains with a valley in between them. He ask me where l was on the graph, "Top or bottom?". Inspired by the Holy Spirit, l replied "The bottom", knowing that from there, He could then lift me. The Lord then said to me, "If you want to go the top, then you have to be humble; you have to remove the titles 'Reverend Doctor' from your name and simply be called "Pastor". I did that and since then, I have been enjoying divine promotion. If you would choose to be truly humble, the only way to go would be higher.

KEY POINT

God promote the humble.

BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: Joshua 5-7

AUTHOR: PASTOR E.A. ADEBOYE 

HYMN 30: WHEN WE WALK WITH THE LORD 

1 When we walk with the Lord 

in the light of his word, 

what a glory he sheds on our way! 

While we do his good will, 

he abides with us still, 

and with all who will trust and obey. 

Refrain:

Trust and obey, for there's no other way 

to be happy in Jesus, but to trust and obey. 

2 Not a burden we bear, 

not a sorrow we share, 

but our toil he doth richly repay; 

not a grief or a loss, 

not a frown or a cross, 

but is blest if we trust and obey. 

3 But we never can prove the delights of his love 

until all on the altar we lay; 

for the favor he shows, 

for the joy he bestows, 

are for them who will trust and obey. 

4 Then in fellowship sweet 

we will sit at his feet, 

or we'll walk by his side in the way; 

what he says we will do, 

where he sends we will go; 

never fear, only trust and obey.

THEME: DIVINE PROMOTION I

MEMORISE: 

And when he had removed him, he raised up unto them David to be their king; to whom also he gave testimony, and said, I have found David the son of Jesse, a man after mine own heart, which shall fulfil all my will. 

Acts  13:22 

READ: 2 Samuel 6:20 -22

20 Then David returned to bless his household. And Michal the daughter of Saul came out to meet David, and said, How glorious was the king of Israel to day, who uncovered himself to day in the eyes of the handmaids of his servants, as one of the vain fellows shamelessly uncovereth himself!

21 And David said unto Michal, It was before the LORD, which chose me before thy father, and before all his house, to appoint me ruler over the people of the LORD, over Israel: therefore will I play before the LORD.

22 And I will yet be more vile than thus, and will be base in mine own sight: and of the maidservants which thou hast spoken of, of them shall I be had in honour.

MESSAGE

1 Samuel 2:7-8 tells us that God can make one fellow poor and another rich, He can bring one down and raise another. He can lift a beggar out of dust and keep on promoting him until he is sitting among princes. Psalm 75:7 says further, "But God is the judge: he putteth down one, and setteth up another."

What does God look for in the people He promotes? The first thing according to our memory verse, is a willingness to do His will. Once He finds out that you are the kind of fellow who always wants to do His will, then He will mark you out for promotion. If He sees how passionate you are about lifting His name above every other name, He will lift you. This is the kind of heart that David had; it was this passion that made him confront Goliath when he heard the giant defiling the name of the Lord.

And David spake to the men that stood by him, saying, what shall be done to the man that killeth this Philistine, and taketh away the reproach from Israel? for who is this uncircumcised Philistine, that he should defy the armies of the living God?

1 Samuel 17:26

In 1 Samuel 17: 45-47, David said that the fight belonged to God. He wasn't fighting for his own accolades; he was fighting for the glory of God. How passionate are you about the will of God being done in your life and around you?

Once in a while, a fellow could start out pursuing the Lord's will, so He promotes him or her, but then along the line, the person could get carried away with power that he or she is no longer pursuing the Lord's will. The Lord responds by demoting such a fellow immediately and disgracefully, as we see in the story of King Saul in 1 Samuel 15:23. 

Today when people talk of King Saul, they use him as a bad example. You can hardly find any good thing to say about him. That is the lot of those who, after being promoted by God begin to do their own will rather than His.

REFLECTION 

Within your sphere of influence, do you pursue God's will or your own agenda?

BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: Joshua 1-4

AUTHOR: PASTOR E.A. ADEBOYE 

HYMN 7: I AM THINE O LORD

1 I am Thine, O Lord, I have heard Thy voice,

And it told Thy love to me;

But I long to rise in the arms of faith,

And be closer drawn to Thee.

Refrain:

Draw me nearer, nearer, blessed Lord,

To the cross where Thou hast died;

Draw me nearer, nearer, nearer, blessed Lord,

To Thy precious, bleeding side.

2 Consecrate me now to Thy service, Lord,

By the pow’r of grace divine;

Let my soul look up with a steadfast hope,

And my will be lost in Thine.

3 O the pure delight of a single hour

That before Thy throne I spend,

When I kneel in prayer, and with Thee, my God,

I commune as friend with friend!

4 There are depths of love that I yet may know

Ere Thee face to face I see;

There are heights of joy that I yet may reach

Ere I rest in peace with Thee.

DATE: SATURDAY MARCH 4th, 2023.

THEME: STANDING BEFORE KINGS

MEMORISE: 

Seest thou a man diligent in his business? he shall stand before kings; he shall not stand before mean men. 

Proverbs 22:29

READ: Proverbs 6:4 -11

4 Give not sleep to thine eyes, nor slumber to thine eyelids.

5 Deliver thyself as a roe from the hand of the hunter, and as a bird from the hand of the fowler.

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

Not everyone gets the opportunity to stand before kings. Standing before kings represents being at the very top of your career or profession. It means that you have become so successful, you are also a king in your own field of operation. The Bible says that if you want to stand before kings, you must be diligent (Proverbs 22:29). Laziness must disappear from your diary. Slothfulness must not be part of your lifestyle at all.

You cannot rise to the top of your profession if you are lazy. The Bible says:

The hand of the diligent shall bear rule: but the slothful shall be under tribute.

Proverbs 12: 24

Proverbs 23:21 also says, "For the drunkard and the glutton shall come to poverty: and drowsiness shall clothe a man with rags". 

In 1970s, there was a positive confession revolution. Many people confessed that they had Mercedes Benz cars, but you'll find them still lazing around their homes by 10 a.m. on most days. Many years later, they were still making positive confessions but the Mercedes Benz cars did not appear. It is not enough for you to confess that you will be great, you need to back it up with hard work. Greatness is not for lazy people. Proverbs 24:33-34 says, "Yet a little sleep, a little slumber, a little folding of the hands to sleep: So shall thy poverty come as one that travelleth; and thy wants as an armed man."

It is the word of God that says those who would not work should not eat (2 Thessalonians 3:10). He has given you the power to make wealth as promised that in Deuteronomy 8:18, but if you are not diligent at what you do for a living, the wealth will not come

God can open a door for you, but you would have to get up and walk through it. My God does not bless laziness.

KEY POINT

God does not bless laziness.

BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: Deuteronomy 33-34

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.
