Open Heavens Daily Devotional by Pastor E.A. Adeboye

OPEN HEAVENS DAILY DEVOTIONAL 


DATE: SUNDAY MARCH 12TH, 2023.


THEME: GOD CAN SEE YOU


MEMORISE: 

Behold, the eye of the LORD is upon them that fear him, upon them that hope in his mercy; 

Psalms 33:18 


READ: John 14:18 


18 I will not leave you comfortless: I will come to you.


MESSAGE

We often have high expectations for how God will respond to various challenges that comes our way, but after a while, when we don't get the expected responses, we begin to wonder if God has even noticed our prayers.


The Bible says in Proverbs 13:12, "Hope deferred maketh the heart sick: but when the desire cometh, it is a tree of life."


I want to let you know that God can see you and He will answer your prayers in a way you never thought possible, in the mighty name of Jesus.


Hannah had been attending Shiloh for many years but little did she know when she was leaving home in 1 Samuel 1:3-18 that this was going to be the last Shiloh she would attend as a barren woman.


Several years ago, we went to Haiti to conduct a crusade which was being broadcast over their radio. While preaching, l relayed to them God's word of prophecy, saying, "There is someone listening to me now who is impotent; the Lord ask me to tell you that He has  restored your potency." A man who had been impotent was lying down on his bed in his house far away from where we were, heard that word on the radio and he was healed immediately. The man ran down to where we were, shouting, "l am the one. I am the one." I don't know for how long he had been praying and whether he had given up hope or not, but l am sure he was not expecting God to send a preacher from Africa to him. Thank God he had not given up; he was still in tune with God, listening to the live broadcast of a crusade.


I don't know how long you may have been praying or if you are beginning to lose hope, but God can see you and even if He has to bring a man of God from the very ends of the earth, He will answer you soon, in Jesus' name. Keep waiting on the Lord, He will never disappoint you (Psalm 27: 14). 


PRAYER POINT 

Father, I know you can see what I am going through. Please strengthen my heart and help me to remain steadfast, in Jesus name.


BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: Joshua 23-24


AUTHOR: PASTOR E.A. ADEBOYE


HYMN 19: ROCK OF AGES CLEFT FOR ME


1 Rock of Ages, cleft for me,

Let me hide myself in Thee;

Let the water and the blood,

From Thy riven side which flowed,

Be of sin the double cure,

Save me from its guilt and power.


2 Not the labor of my hands

Can fulfill Thy law’s demands;

Could my zeal no respite know,

Could my tears forever flow,

All could never sin erase,

Thou must save, and save by grace.


3 Nothing in my hands I bring,

Simply to Thy cross I cling;

Naked, come to Thee for dress,

Helpless, look to Thee for grace:

Foul, I to the fountain fly,

Wash me, Savior, or I die.


4 While I draw this fleeting breath,

When mine eyes shall close in death,

When I soar to worlds unknown,

See Thee on Thy judgment throne,

Rock of Ages, cleft for me,

Let me hide myself in Thee.

MEMORISE: 

Jesus said unto him, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind. 

Matthew 22:37 


READ: Genesis 22:1 -18

1 And it came to pass after these things, that God did tempt Abraham, and said unto him, Abraham: and he said, Behold, here I am.


2 And he said, Take now thy son, thine only son Isaac, whom thou lovest, and get thee into the land of Moriah; and offer him there for a burnt offering upon one of the mountains which I will tell thee of.


3 And Abraham rose up early in the morning, and saddled his ass, and took two of his young men with him, and Isaac his son, and clave the wood for the burnt offering, and rose up, and went unto the place of which God had told him.


4 Then on the third day Abraham lifted up his eyes, and saw the place afar off.


5 And Abraham said unto his young men, Abide ye here with the ass; and I and the lad will go yonder and worship, and come again to you.


6 And Abraham took the wood of the burnt offering, and laid it upon Isaac his son; and he took the fire in his hand, and a knife; and they went both of them together.


7 And Isaac spake unto Abraham his father, and said, My father: and he said, Here am I, my son. And he said, Behold the fire and the wood: but where is the lamb for a burnt offering?


8 And Abraham said, My son, God will provide himself a lamb for a burnt offering: so they went both of them together.


9 And they came to the place which God had told him of; and Abraham built an altar there, and laid the wood in order, and bound Isaac his son, and laid him on the altar upon the wood.


10 And Abraham stretched forth his hand, and took the knife to slay his son.


11 And the angel of the LORD called unto him out of heaven, and said, Abraham, Abraham: and he said, Here am I.


12 And he said, Lay not thine hand upon the lad, neither do thou any thing unto him: for now I know that thou fearest God, seeing thou hast not withheld thy son, thine only son from me.


13 And Abraham lifted up his eyes, and looked, and behold behind him a ram caught in a thicket by his horns: and Abraham went and took the ram, and offered him up for a burnt offering in the stead of his son.


14 And Abraham called the name of that place Jehovahjireh: as it is said to this day, In the mount of the LORD it shall be seen.


15 And the angel of the LORD called unto Abraham out of heaven the second time,


16 And said, By myself have I sworn, saith the LORD, for because thou hast done this thing, and hast not withheld thy son, thine only son:


17 That in blessing I will bless thee, and in multiplying I will multiply thy seed as the stars of the heaven, and as the sand which is upon the sea shore; and thy seed shall possess the gate of his enemies;


18 And in thy seed shall all the nations of the earth be blessed; because thou hast obeyed my voice.


MESSAGE

Many years ago, when The Redeemed Christian Church of God was much smaller, one of my daughters-in-the-Lord told me, Daddy, you must be at my wedding". I laughed and said, Okay, let's look through my diary for a free date". We looked through the Saturdays for the rest of that year and even the one after, but could only find one free in July the next year. She said, "Glory be to God; that is the date of my wedding". The next year came and my mother died in July, while l was in London on an assignment and because l hadn't written the lady's marriage appointment in my calendar, my wife saw that Saturday free in my calendar and said, "Yes, this is when we will bury Mama".


I loved my mother very much- l am her last born and only son, but because of how committed this lady was to having me at her wedding, l couldn't let her down. There was no other free day so l decided that we would do the funeral on Friday so that l could attend the wedding on Saturday.


When God sees a committed fellow, when He sees someone that will do anything to fulfil His will, He will also be committed to that person. Abraham's heart was totally committed to God - so committed that he was willing to sacrifice his son just to fulfil God's will. That is why God was so committed to blessing him, even to the extent of swearing thus, "...By myself have l sworn, saith the LORD, for because thou hast done this thing, and hast not withheld thy son, thine only son..." (Genesis 22:16).


Some people are not even committed to paying just 10% of their income to God as tithe and they want Him to be committed to their financial success. Some Church workers are not committed enough to the work of God so they either go late or miss workers' meetings yet they want God to be committed to their businesses. Some Pastors hardly fast and pray for the work that God has put in their hands, yet they want God to be committed to the growth of the ministry. He can see your level of commitment and He is using it to weigh His commitment to you as well.


REFLECTION 

Are you as committed to God as you want Him to be to you?


BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: Joshua 21-22


AUTHOR: PASTOR E.A. ADEBOYE


HYMN 23: TAKE MY LIFE AND LET IT BE


1 Take my life, and let it be

Consecrated, Lord, to Thee;

Take my moments and my days,

Let them flow in ceaseless praise,

Let them flow in ceaseless praise.


2 Take my hands, and let them move

At the impulse of Thy love;

Take my feet and let them be

Swift and beautiful for Thee,

Swift and beautiful for Thee.


3 Take my voice, and let me sing

Always, only, for my King;

Take my lips, and let them be

Filled with messages from Thee,

Filled with messages from Thee.


4 Take my silver and my gold;

Not a mite would I withhold;

Take my intellect, and use

Every power as Thou shalt choose,

Every power as Thou shalt choose.


5 Take my will, and make it Thine;

It shall be no longer mine.

Take my heart; it is Thine own;

It shall be Thy royal throne,

It shall be Thy royal throne.


6 Take my love; my Lord, I pour

At Thy feet its treasure-store.

Take myself, and I will be

Ever, only, all for Thee,

Ever, only, all for Thee.

Open Heavens Daily Devotional by Pastor E.A. Adeboye

OPEN HEAVENS DAILY DEVOTIONAL 


DATE: FRIDAY MARCH 10TH, 2023.


THEME: WAITING ON GOD


MEMORISE: 

But they that wait upon the LORD shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; and they shall walk, and not faint. 

Isaiah 40:31


READ: Psalms 27:13-14


13  I had fainted, unless I had believed to see the goodness of the LORD in the land of the living.


14 Wait on the LORD: be of good courage, and he shall strengthen thine heart: wait, I say, on the LORD.


MESSAGE

Not many people know what it really means to wait on God. I'll try to explain it using how a waiter waits on guests at an upscale restaurant. The waiter ensures the guest sits comfortably then proceeds to take his or her order. The waiter then ensures the order is delivered promptly and exactly as specified by the guest.


Apostle Paul said in Ephesians 6:13, "Wherefore take unto you the whole armour of God, that ye may be able withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand." Having done everything you know to do before God, stand. Once you are serving Him, winning souls, following up on them, paying your tithes, giving your offerings honoring Him with your first fruits and all else you know to do, according to His word, the only thing left is to stand. You are to wait on Him, asking "Lord, what else do you want me to do?" The moment you get an answer, jump into action.


When those who wait on the Lord go to Him in prayers, they pray the way He want them to: they pray His word back to Him. Since it is His word, He will answer it. They don't pray only just when they feel like it, many times, they feel Him nudging them to pray even when they do not feel like. Those who wait on the Lord don't seek their own pleasure in life; all they want is to please their Master. If God tells them, "I need all the money in your bank account for this project" they don't hesitate; they drop the money immediately. They are always at His beck and call, willing and eager to do His bidding.


Now when you have had a very good waiter attend to you at a restaurant, you are likely to drop a tip for the fellow. The tip that God gives you in return for waiting on Him, according to lsaiah 40:31, is that He will renew your strength. This means that sickness and even old age will not have power over you. He will become your doctor, taking care of you by Himself. Also, He will give you wings to fly like an eagle. In other words, you will be in a class of your own. Great men will call you great. You will excel so much in all you do that it will be difficult for anybody to beat your record. Commit to waiting on God from today, He rewards all those who diligently seek Him (Hebrews 11:6).


REFLECTION 


Are you willing to become God's waiter?


BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: Joshua 18-20


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.


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.
