Open Heavens Daily Devotional by Pastor E.A. Adeboye

OPEN HEAVENS DAILY DEVOTIONAL 


DATE: SATURDAY MARCH 25TH, 2023.


THEME: WHEN GOD ALLOWS MOUNTAINS l


MEMORISE: 

If thou faint in the day of adversity, thy strength is small. 

Proverbs 24:10 


READ: Daniel 3:1 -30

1 Nebuchadnezzar the king made an image of gold, whose height was threescore cubits, and the breadth thereof six cubits: he set it up in the plain of Dura, in the province of Babylon.


2 Then Nebuchadnezzar the king sent to gather together the princes, the governors, and the captains, the judges, the treasurers, the counsellors, the sheriffs, and all the rulers of the provinces, to come to the dedication of the image which Nebuchadnezzar the king had set up.


3 Then the princes, the governors, and captains, the judges, the treasurers, the counsellors, the sheriffs, and all the rulers of the provinces, were gathered together unto the dedication of the image that Nebuchadnezzar the king had set up; and they stood before the image that Nebuchadnezzar had set up.


4 Then an herald cried aloud, To you it is commanded, O people, nations, and languages,


5 That at what time ye hear the sound of the cornet, flute, harp, sackbut, psaltery, dulcimer, and all kinds of musick, ye fall down and worship the golden image that Nebuchadnezzar the king hath set up:


6 And whoso falleth not down and worshippeth shall the same hour be cast into the midst of a burning fiery furnace.


7 Therefore at that time, when all the people heard the sound of the cornet, flute, harp, sackbut, psaltery, and all kinds of musick, all the people, the nations, and the languages, fell down and worshipped the golden image that Nebuchadnezzar the king had set up.


8 Wherefore at that time certain Chaldeans came near, and accused the Jews.


9 They spake and said to the king Nebuchadnezzar, O king, live for ever.


10 Thou, O king, hast made a decree, that every man that shall hear the sound of the cornet, flute, harp, sackbut, psaltery, and dulcimer, and all kinds of musick, shall fall down and worship the golden image:


11 And whoso falleth not down and worshippeth, that he should be cast into the midst of a burning fiery furnace.


12 There are certain Jews whom thou hast set over the affairs of the province of Babylon, Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego; these men, O king, have not regarded thee: they serve not thy gods, nor worship the golden image which thou hast set up.


13 Then Nebuchadnezzar in his rage and fury commanded to bring Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego. Then they brought these men before the king.


14 Nebuchadnezzar spake and said unto them, Is it true, O Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, do not ye serve my gods, nor worship the golden image which I have set up?


15 Now if ye be ready that at what time ye hear the sound of the cornet, flute, harp, sackbut, psaltery, and dulcimer, and all kinds of musick, ye fall down and worship the image which I have made; well: but if ye worship not, ye shall be cast the same hour into the midst of a burning fiery furnace; and who is that God that shall deliver you out of my hands?


16 Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, answered and said to the king, O Nebuchadnezzar, we are not careful to answer thee in this matter.


17 If it be so, our God whom we serve is able to deliver us from the burning fiery furnace, and he will deliver us out of thine hand, O king.


18 But if not, be it known unto thee, O king, that we will not serve thy gods, nor worship the golden image which thou hast set up.


19 Then was Nebuchadnezzar full of fury, and the form of his visage was changed against Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego: therefore he spake, and commanded that they should heat the furnace one seven times more than it was wont to be heated.


20 And he commanded the most mighty men that were in his army to bind Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, and to cast them into the burning fiery furnace.


21 Then these men were bound in their coats, their hosen, and their hats, and their other garments, and were cast into the midst of the burning fiery furnace.


22 Therefore because the king's commandment was urgent, and the furnace exceeding hot, the flame of the fire slew those men that took up Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego.


23 And these three men, Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, fell down bound into the midst of the burning fiery furnace.


24 Then Nebuchadnezzar the king was astonied, and rose up in haste, and spake, and said unto his counsellors, Did not we cast three men bound into the midst of the fire? They answered and said unto the king, True, O king.


25 He answered and said, Lo, I see four men loose, walking in the midst of the fire, and they have no hurt; and the form of the fourth is like the Son of God.


26 Then Nebuchadnezzar came near to the mouth of the burning fiery furnace, and spake, and said, Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, ye servants of the most high God, come forth, and come hither. Then Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, came forth of the midst of the fire.


27 And the princes, governors, and captains, and the king's counsellors, being gathered together, saw these men, upon whose bodies the fire had no power, nor was an hair of their head singed, neither were their coats changed, nor the smell of fire had passed on them.


28 Then Nebuchadnezzar spake, and said, Blessed be the God of Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, who hath sent his angel, and delivered his servants that trusted in him, and have changed the king's word, and yielded their bodies, that they might not serve nor worship any god, except their own God.


29 Therefore I make a decree, That every people, nation, and language, which speak any thing amiss against the God of Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, shall be cut in pieces, and their houses shall be made a dunghill: because there is no other God that can deliver after this sort.


30 Then the king promoted Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, in the province of Babylon.


MESSAGE

While it is true that God can solve all problems, when you go closer to Him, you would realise that once in a while, He allows some mountains (problems) to stand in your way. The good thing however, is that if He allows the mountain to stand in your way, it is because He knows you can climb it. For example, in Job's case, God only allowed what He knew Job could overcome. 1 Corinthians 19:13 says that God will not permit us to be tempted beyond our capacity and He would always provide a way of escape as well.


Sometimes, God allows mountains in the life of His children because he or she is about to be promoted. Before every promotion, there is always an exam that the fellow who is to be promoted must pass. No teacher will give Advanced-level-questions to primary school students in exam. God will not let you face a trial you cannot overcome.


In Daniel 3, after all the horrors of going into the fiery furnace, Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego were promoted. Job 42:12-16 tells us that at the end of Job's test, his latter end was far superior to his beginning.


When God allows mountains to stand in the path of His children, He also gives them the required measure of grace to deal with those mountains. The unfortunate thing is that many times, people refuse to use that grace and they just let the temptation take over their lives. There is always a way of escape, no matter how small; you just have to hold on to it so that you can overcome. This is where you need the fruit of the Spirit called "Longsuffering". Don't look for alternatives to God simply because you are facing a mountain. Don't commit sin in a bid to get rid of that mountain because sin will only bring a bigger mountain your way..


Hold on to God like Job did. Don't deny Him when you are going through a hard time; Don't faint in the day of adversity; stand strong, His grace is sufficient for you (2 Corinthians 12:9).


PRAYER POINT

Father, please help me never to deny You, no matter what comes my way.


BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: 1 Samuel 13-14


AUTHOR: PASTOR E.A. ADEBOYE 


HYMN 2: AMAZING GRACE


1 Amazing grace! how sweet the sound,

That saved a wretch; like me!

I once was lost, but now am found,

Was blind, but now I see.


2 ’Twas grace that taught my heart to fear,

And grace my fears relieved;

How precious did that grace appear

The hour I first believed!


3 The Lord hath promised good to me,

His word my hope secures;

He will my shield and portion be

As long as life endures.


4 When we’ve been there ten thousand years,

Bright shining as the sun,

We’ve no less days to sing God’s praise

Than when we first begun.

Open Heavens Daily Devotional by Pastor E.A. Adeboye

OPEN HEAVENS DAILY DEVOTIONAL 


DATE: FRIDAY MARCH 24TH, 2023.


THEME: ACT ON THE WORD


MEMORISE: 

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

James 1:22 


READ: Matthew 7:24 -29

24 Therefore whosoever heareth these sayings of mine, and doeth them, I will liken him unto a wise man, which built his house upon a rock:


25 And the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that house; and it fell not: for it was founded upon a rock.


26 And every one that heareth these sayings of mine, and doeth them not, shall be likened unto a foolish man, which built his house upon the sand:


27 And the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that house; and it fell: and great was the fall of it.


28 And it came to pass, when Jesus had ended these sayings, the people were astonished at his doctrine:


29 For he taught them as one having authority, and not as the scribes.


MESSAGE

As opposed to the people who don't have ears that we discussed yesterday, there are many who do have ears but are too paralysed to practice what they learn from the word of God. They can recall the Pastor's sermon word for word but they don't practice it. They can probably even recite the Bible from Genesis to Revelation but it does not show in their lives because they do nothing in line with the word. These category of people are described in 2 Timothy 3:7 as:


Ever learning, and never able to come to the knowledge of the truth,


These are people who learn but somehow, the word does not take root in them enough for it to change their character. The devil practically paralyses them and stop them from doing what they have learnt. If you are in this category. I declare your freedom today, in Jesus' name.


One way the devil paralyses people after they have heard the word is through procrastination. They hear and are determined to apply what they have learnt, but then they procrastinate until they lose the zeal to do it. The day my Father-in-the-Lord taught us that worldly music attracts evil spirits while godly music repels them and attracts the Holy Spirit, l destroyed all the worldly music tapes that I had. The night he preached about cleanliness, and pointed our attention to the dirt under our beds, that same night when we got home my wife and l lifted up the mattress and cleaned under the bed and everywhere in our home. We did not wait until the next day.


That is the same way you should practice the word of God: with urgency! James 1:23-25 says that when you don't practice the word immediately, it is like not adjusting your clothes while standing in front of the mirror. It would be useless to start adjusting them when you no longer have the mirror before you. Don't let the devil paralyse you; act on God's word as soon as you hear it.


KEY POINT 

The blessing is in hearing the word of God and doing it. (James 1:23-25).


BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: 1 Samuel 8-12


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.

DATE: THURSDAY  MARCH 23RD, 2023.


THEME: LISTEN TO THE WORD


MEMORISE: 

To whom shall I speak, and give warning, that they may hear? behold, their ear is uncircumcised, and they cannot hearken: behold, the word of the LORD is unto them a reproach; they have no delight in it. Jeremiah 6:10


READ: Matthew 13:3 -23

3 And he spake many things unto them in parables, saying, Behold, a sower went forth to sow;


4 And when he sowed, some seeds fell by the way side, and the fowls came and devoured them up:


5 Some fell upon stony places, where they had not much earth: and forthwith they sprung up, because they had no deepness of earth:


6 And when the sun was up, they were scorched; and because they had no root, they withered away.


7 And some fell among thorns; and the thorns sprung up, and choked them:


8 But other fell into good ground, and brought forth fruit, some an hundredfold, some sixtyfold, some thirtyfold.


9 Who hath ears to hear, let him hear.


10 And the disciples came, and said unto him, Why speakest thou unto them in parables?


11 He answered and said unto them, Because it is given unto you to know the mysteries of the kingdom of heaven, but to them it is not given.


12 For whosoever hath, to him shall be given, and he shall have more abundance: but whosoever hath not, from him shall be taken away even that he hath.


13 Therefore speak I to them in parables: because they seeing see not; and hearing they hear not, neither do they understand.


14 And in them is fulfilled the prophecy of Esaias, which saith, By hearing ye shall hear, and shall not understand; and seeing ye shall see, and shall not perceive:


15 For this people's heart is waxed gross, and their ears are dull of hearing, and their eyes they have closed; lest at any time they should see with their eyes, and hear with their ears, and should understand with their heart, and should be converted, and I should heal them.


16 But blessed are your eyes, for they see: and your ears, for they hear.


17 For verily I say unto you, That many prophets and righteous men have desired to see those things which ye see, and have not seen them; and to hear those things which ye hear, and have not heard them.


18 Hear ye therefore the parable of the sower.


19 When any one heareth the word of the kingdom, and understandeth it not, then cometh the wicked one, and catcheth away that which was sown in his heart. This is he which received seed by the way side.


20 But he that received the seed into stony places, the same is he that heareth the word, and anon with joy receiveth it;


21 Yet hath he not root in himself, but dureth for a while: for when tribulation or persecution ariseth because of the word, by and by he is offended.


22 He also that received seed among the thorns is he that heareth the word; and the care of this world, and the deceitfulness of riches, choke the word, and he becometh unfruitful.


23 But he that received seed into the good ground is he that heareth the word, and understandeth it; which also beareth fruit, and bringeth forth, some an hundredfold, some sixty, some thirty.


MESSAGE

Having discussed the word of God in the last few says, l must say that there are many who don't have ears to hear. Revelation 2:7 says, "He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches..."


There is danger in not hearing the word of God because Isaiah 6:8-10 says if you can hear, then you will repent and be healed. That is why the devil puts in all efforts to steal the word of God from our hearts as we see in our Bible reading for today. I am certain that the day you gave your life to Christ, you were not the only one who heard that message. Others heard it and many of them did not surrender their lives to Christ. This is because though they had ears physically, the devil had blocked their spiritual ears. Furthermore, there are a lot of Christians who have been going to Church for many years; the Pastors preaches powerful sermons, but it has had no effect on their  lives because the devil has simply blocked their ears in order to keep them in bondage. I pray your spiritual ears will never be blocked, in Jesus' name.


There are also people who practice selective hearing of the word of God. In their case, the devil doesn't have to bother himself, they block their own ears themselves (Jeremiah 17:23). They don't want to hear that passage of the Bible that will condemn what they are doing wrong. When such people hear me say, "God said we should be holy for He is holy" they say, "Doesn't he have anything else to say"?


Psalm 95:6-8 made it clear that if you want to hear God's voice, "Harden not your heart". Some of us have hardened our hearts; we don't want to hear anymore. Remember the rich man's plea in Luke 16:19-31 when he told Abraham to send Lazarus to preach to his brothers. Abraham told him that his brothers had prophets speaking to them on earth; if they didn't listen to them, they wouldn't hear anyone else. They were destined for destruction.


You have genuine men and women of God teaching you the word now -'this devotional is a testament to that. Listen so that you will not regret it for eternity.


REFLECTION 

Is your heart always open to receive the true word of God?


BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: 1 Samuel 4-7


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.

You may not add, subtract or rearrange these prayer points. The Holy Spirit is the author, though He used someone, who, out of humility has refused to take glory for it, by not putting his name. It is plagiarism to use, or pass as your own, someone's else writing or work. The original author of these prayer points is the Holy Spirit. So, share, but don't share His glory with Him in the process. Remain blessed, as you obey, in Jesus name.
