Open Heavens Daily Devotional by Pastor E.A. Adeboye

OPEN HEAVENS DAILY DEVOTIONAL 

DATE: TUESDAY MARCH 21ST, 2023.

THEME: THE WORD IS ALMIGHTY

MEMORISE: 

For the word of God is quick, and powerful, and sharper than any twoedged sword, piercing even to the dividing asunder of soul and spirit, and of the joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart. 

Hebrews 4:12

READ: Isaiah 55:10 -11

10 For as the rain cometh down, and the snow from heaven, and returneth not thither, but watereth the earth, and maketh it bring forth and bud, that it may give seed to the sower, and bread to the eater:

11 So shall my word be that goeth forth out of my mouth: it shall not return unto me void, but it shall accomplish that which I please, and it shall prosper in the thing whereto I sent it.

MESSAGE

The Word is almighty. He created all things and indeed, He is God Himself (John 1:1-3). The Word is so powerful that He creates new beginnings. In Exodus 3:1-5, when God spoke to Moses at the backside of the desert, he had a new beginning. Though he had become a fugitive and it seemed he had missed it in life, Moses got a chance for a new beginning the moment he started hearing from God. In John 11:39-44, when Jesus Christ was going to bring Lazarus back from the dead, He didn't lay hands on him; He only spoke and new beginning came for someone who had been dead for 4 days. I speak the word of God into your life now: receive a new beginning in Jesus' name.

The Word of God is not only all-powerful but also sharp - sharp enough to separate the joint from the marrow and even dividing the soul and the spirit (Hebrews 4:12). When you see a hardened criminal crying in front of the altar to give his life to Christ, that is an example of what the Word of God can do. It can pierce into the hardest of souls. That is why it is futile trying to change your stubborn relatives using your own words. Preach the word of God to them; pray that the Word pierces through their souls to convict them of their sins.

Someone once said that they were wondering how come we usually have such large crowds at our crusades. They wondered especially because my sermons at such crusades were usually simple and the general theme was always; "Be holy", yet large crowds attend over and over again and thousands give their lives to Christ every time l make an altar call. I told them it is because beautiful sermons with analysis of the Bible using Greek and Hebrew languages do not convict sinners. Deep thoughts and philosophies can't convert anyone without the power of the Holy Spirit. Simple and straightforward as the word of God is, it has tremendous power to convert sinners to saints.

If you are a preacher of the gospel, please don't try to impress the people with how much Greek and Hebrew you know. Just preach the word and trust that the Holy Spirit will accomplish all that the Lord pleases (Isaiah 55:11).

KEY POINT

The word of God is all-powerful.

BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: Ruth 1-4

AUTHOR: PASTOR E.A. ADEBOYE

HYMN 18: PRAISE TO THE LORD THE ALMIGHTY

1 Praise to the Lord, the Almighty, 

the King of creation!

O my soul, praise him, for he is 

your health and salvation!

Come, all who hear; 

now to his temple draw near,

join me in glad adoration.

2 Praise to the Lord, above 

all things so wondrously reigning;

sheltering you under his wings, 

and so gently sustaining!

Have you not seen all 

that is needful has been

sent by his gracious ordaining?

3 Praise to the Lord, who will 

prosper your work and defend you;

surely his goodness and mercy 

shall daily attend you.

Ponder anew what the Almighty can do,

if with his love he befriends you.

4 Praise to the Lord! O let all 

that is in me adore him!

All that has life and breath, 

come now with praises before him.

Let the Amen sound 

from his people again;

gladly forever adore him

OPEN HEAVENS DAILY DEVOTIONAL 

DATE: MONDAY MARCH 20TH, 2023.

THEME: THE WORD IS FOOD

MEMORISE: 

As newborn babes, desire the sincere milk of the word, that ye may grow thereby: 

1 Peter 2:2 

READ: John 6:48 -51

48 I am that bread of life.

49 Your fathers did eat manna in the wilderness, and are dead.

50 This is the bread which cometh down from heaven, that a man may eat thereof, and not die.

51 I am the living bread which came down from heaven: if any man eat of this bread, he shall live for ever: and the bread that I will give is my flesh, which I will give for the life of the world.

MESSAGE

In response to one of the temptations from the devil, our Lord Jesus Christ said, "...It is written, Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of God." (Matthew 4:4).

It is true that as a human being, you need physical food to survive, but it is also true that your spirit man needs spiritual food to survive and that spiritual food is the word of God. If you don't eat the word of God, you will be spiritually malnourished and it can lead to spiritual death. There are many spiritually dead Christians and even Pastors today because they don't read their Bibles. God's word will give you life. Jesus Christ said in John 6:63:

It is the spirit that quickeneth; the flesh profiteth nothing: the words that l speak unto you, they are spirit, and they are life.

The reason many people are depressed is that they hardly feed on the word of God. The Bible says in Jeremiah 15:16, "Thy words were found, and l did eat them; and thy word was unto me the joy and rejoicing of mine heart: for l am called by thy name, O LORD God of hosts."

When you eat the word of God, it strengthens your spirit man and you begin to feel a kind of joy that cannot be explained. Joshua 1:8 says if you want to have good success, then the book of the law must not depart from your mouth; you are to eat the word of God consistently.

Shortly after l got born again, my brethren and l had a slogan: "No Bible, No Breakfast," We ate the word before we ate physical food. The first thing you must do in the morning is eat the word. You would then be healthy, because the word had already gone in before physical food.

Resolve today to eat the word of God more than you eat physical food.

ACTION POINT

Make this your slogan henceforth, "No Bible No Breakfast"

BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: Judges 2021

AUTHOR: PASTOR E.A. ADEBOYE

HYMN 3: ANCIENT WORDS

1 Holy words long preserved

for our walk in this world,

They resound with God's own heart

Oh, let the Ancient words impart.

Chorus

Ancient words ever true

Changing me, and changing you. 

We have come with open hearts

Oh let the ancient words impart.

2 Words of Life, words of Hope

Give us strength, help us cope

In this world, where e'er we roam

Ancient words will guide us Home.

3 Holy words of our Faith

Handed down to this age.

Came to us through sacrifice

Oh heed the faithful words of Christ.

4 Holy words long preserved

For our walk in this world.

They resound with God's own heart

Oh let the ancient words impart.

THEME: THE WORD GUIDES II

MEMORISE: 

I have refrained my feet from every evil way, that I might keep thy word. 

Psalms 119:101

READ: Matthew 10:17 -20

17 But beware of men: for they will deliver you up to the councils, and they will scourge you in their synagogues;

18 And ye shall be brought before governors and kings for my sake, for a testimony against them and the Gentiles.

19 But when they deliver you up, take no thought how or what ye shall speak: for it shall be given you in that same hour what ye shall speak.

20 For it is not ye that speak, but the Spirit of your Father which speaketh in you.

MESSAGE

Yesterday we discussed how God's word guides you to fulfil His purpose for your life. Today, we will discuss how His word guides you out of trouble.

But when they deliver you up, take no thought how or what ye shall speak: for it shall be given you in that same hour what ye shall speak.

Matthew 10:19

When l became a General Overseer I had a lot of problems because l became the leader over many people who had been in the Church since its inception in 1952 and l just joined in 1973. Some of these people were members of the Supreme Council in those days, so every meeting was hellish for me. They criticized everything. One day, God said, "At the meeting today, you will say nothing until you hear from me". This particular meeting was the toughest of them all. I kept quiet as instructed and then all of a sudden, God spoke. "Tell them, it is written, every idle word that a man shall speak, he will give account of it" (Matthew12:36). That was the last time I had a problem with them.

The truth according to John 17:17 is the word of God. With the guidance of the word, you will no longer be confused because the Spirit of truth knows even the hidden truth about all things.

When l left a very promising career in academics to become the General Overseer of a small Church that couldn't afford to pay the salaries of its staff, it did not make sense at the time, but the Spirit of truth told me that my tomorrow would be all right if l took that path. Today l am glad l did. When the Redeemed Christian Church of God established the camp in the middle of a forest filled with snakes and highway robbers, it did not make sense, but that is where the Spirit of truth led us. Today, that same place has become a highly sought-after city to live and work in.

Let the word of God guide you in every decision you take. You can't know better than the Spirit of truth; consult Him before you make any move and you will never regret it.

PRAYER POINT

Spirit of truth, please coordinate and direct every aspect of my life in Jesus name.

BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: Judges 17-19

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: SATURDAY MARCH 18TH, 2023.

THEME: THE WORD GUIDES

MEMORISE: 

All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness: 

2 Timothy 3:16 

READ: Psalms 119:97 -105

97 O how love I thy law! it is my meditation all the day.

98 Thou through thy commandments hast made me wiser than mine enemies: for they are ever with me.

99 I have more understanding than all my teachers: for thy testimonies are my meditation.

100 I understand more than the ancients, because I keep thy precepts.

101 I have refrained my feet from every evil way, that I might keep thy word.

102 I have not departed from thy judgments: for thou hast taught me.

103 How sweet are thy words unto my taste! yea, sweeter than honey to my mouth!

104 Through thy precepts I get understanding: therefore I hate every false way.

105 Thy word is a lamp unto my feet, and a light unto my path.

MESSAGE

In 1 Kings17:2-16 God sent His word to guide Elijah to where he would get food for a period of time. When the time elapsed, the word came again, telling him to go to Zarephath where God had already made arrangements for his feeding through a widow.

The word of God guides; He tells you what to do when there seems to be no way out of a difficult situation. I pray that the Lord will open your ears so that you can begin to hear from Him.

You will solve problems faster if you can hear directly from God. When l was working on my PhD thesis, l ended up with many simultaneous equations. Even solving one of these is stressful enough, talk less of the volume l had to deal with! I tried and tried to solve them but l couldn't. One day, before going to bed, l read Exodus 14 where the Israelites crossed the Red Sea. Suddenly, l heard the voice of the Lord saying, 'Bring your equations". I did just that and then He began to say, "Put this one on the right, put this one on the left and so on". By the time l finished and took a look at those on the right, they all had something in common. It was the same thing for those on the left. Because they were all jumbled together before, l couldn't see that. The Lord then said "Solve the ones on the right separately, then combine. That was exactly what happened at the Red Sea. The sea parted, the Israelites passed through and the sea came together again killing Pharaoh and his army." Five hours later, my thesis was ready. God's voice solved in 5 hours what l hadn't been able to solve in 18 months. When my thesis was taken to the external examiner, he read through and said, "Award this boy his PhD; l have no question for him". He was told that there must be an oral examination, but he insisted that he had no questions for me. He had no questions because l wasn't the one who solved that problem, it was the Word of God Himself who did.

If you allow the Word of God to be your guide for every decision you make, you will never walk in darkness and He will guide you to fulfillment of His purpose for your life (John 8:12).

ACTION POINT

Make God's word your guide in all decisions you make.

BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: Judges 14-16

AUTHOR: PASTOR E.A. ADEBOYE

HYMN 10: IN CHRIST ALONE

1 In Christ alone my hope is found 

He is my light, my strength, my song 

This cornerstone, this solid ground 

Firm through the fiercest drought and storm 

What heights of love, what depths of peace 

When fears are stilled, when strivings cease 

My comforter, my all in all 

Here in the love of Christ I stand  

2 In Christ alone who took on flesh 

Fullness of God in helpless babe 

This gift of love and righteousness 

Scorned by the ones He came to save 

Till on that cross as Jesus died 

The wrath of God was satisfied 

For every sin on Him was laid 

Here in the death of Christ I live.  

3 There in the ground His body lay 

Light of the world by darkness slain 

Then bursting forth in glorious day 

Up from the grave He rose again 

And as He stands in victory 

Sin's curse has lost its grip on me 

For I am His and He is mine 

Bought with the precious blood of Christ  

4 No guilt in life, no fear in death 

This is the power of Christ in me 

From life's first cry to final breath 

Jesus commands my destiny 

No power of hell, no scheme of man 

Can ever pluck me from His hand 

Till He returns or calls me home 

Here in the power of Christ I'll stand
