Open Heavens Daily Devotional by Pastor E.A. Adeboye

OPEN HEAVENS DAILY DEVOTIONAL 

DATE: MONDAY APRIL 3RD, 2023.

THEME: DON'T FIGHT GOD

MEMORISE: 

Woe unto him that striveth with his Maker! Let the potsherd strive with the potsherds of the earth. Shall the clay say to him that fashioneth it, What makest thou? or thy work, He hath no hands? 

Isaiah 45:9

READ: Isaiah 45:9 -10

9 Woe unto him that striveth with his Maker! Let the potsherd strive with the potsherds of the earth. Shall the clay say to him that fashioneth it, What makest thou? or thy work, He hath no hands?

10 Woe unto him that saith unto his father, What begettest thou? or to the woman, What hast thou brought forth?

MESSAGE 

Sequel to the discussion we started yesterday, the side you take determines who you fight against. If you take the side of God, you would be fighting against the devil and his demons. If you disobey the Lord, then you have chosen the side of the devil and would thus be fighting against God. Believe me honestly, you don't want to fight God. He is too big for you to take sides against and survive.

God has His way of dealing with people who take sides with the devil through disobedience to Him. One way is to withdraw His support from such a fellow like He did in Joshua 7:1-12 when Joshua failed because he had accommodated sin in his camp. Another way is to completely forsake the fellow like He did Samson in Judges 16:18-31. There are any people experiencing either of these today but they don't realize that it is God fighting them so they keep fighting without realizing that the One they are battling against cannot be defeated.

There was a lawyer who once told me that tithing was just a means for pastors to collect people's hard-earned money. I tried to explain to him that tithing was a commandment from God, but he refused to listen, so l said to him: "May l ask God to prove by Himself through you if tithing is His will or not?" He replied, "Pray the prayer" so l did. This brilliant lawyer lost all the three cases he handled immediately after this incident. This tarnished his reputation, and he lost some business. This man also owned a bakery and suddenly, during a festive period when most bakeries record higher demand and sales, all his bakers decided to resign from their jobs. He offered to double their salaries, but they all insisted that they were leaving. Hard as he tried, he couldn't get new bakers. After he realized that this must be God fighting him, he came to me and said, "l agree now that tithing is God's will, please pray for me". We prayed a simple prayer; he appealed the three cases he had lost and won all of them. His bakers also returned to work with him, and everything became good again.

Beloved, disobeying God amounts to fighting Him and woe unto him that fight his Maker (Isaiah 45:9).

KEY POINT

When you disobey God, you're taking sides with the devil to fight Him. 

BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: 2Samuel 8-11

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.

Open Heavens Daily Devotional by Pastor E.A. Adeboye

OPEN HEAVENS DAILY DEVOTIONAL 

DATE: SUNDAY APRIL 2ND, 2023.

THEME: WHOSE SIDE ARE YOU ON?

MEMORISE: 

Praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, and watching thereunto with all perseverance and supplication for all saints; 

Ephesians 6:18

READ: Ephesians 6:10 -18

10 Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord, and in the power of his might.

11 Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil.

12 For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.

13 Wherefore take unto you the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand.

14 Stand therefore, having your loins girt about with truth, and having on the breastplate of righteousness;

15 And your feet shod with the preparation of the gospel of peace;

16 Above all, taking the shield of faith, wherewith ye shall be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked.

17 And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God:

18 Praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, and watching thereunto with all perseverance and supplication for all saints;

MESSAGE 

Human beings are faced with all kinds of wars from their conception all through to the day they leave this earth. Genesis 38:27 says that when a woman is in labor; she is travailing. After she puts to bed, the child begins to confront all kinds of enemies - known and unknown. In Matthew 10:36, Jesus Christ Himself said a man's foes will be they of his own household. If the Lord showed you all the relatives and family friends who wanted you to die in infancy, it would surprise you, but thank God you survived. 

When we talked about household enemies, it could be your father or even your mother. If you don't believe that parents can be their children's enemies, read Genesis 27, where you will see how a mother plotted against her own son and denied him of his blessings.

I have always wondered about when God told Abraham to sacrifice Isaac to Him and Isaac asked where the lamb for the sacrifice was. Instead of his father telling him the truth, he said instead, "God will provide". Isaac must have looked around, shocked as his father was tying him up, thinking, "So l am the ram?"

What about in-laws? Read 1 Samuel 18:29 and you will see a man - King Saul, being described as the enemy of his son-in-law - David. That is not to talk about witches and wizards, principalities and powers et cetera (Ephesians 6:12). In this warfare, there are two different hosts fighting for the souls of men. You can either decide to take sides with the heavenly host or the demonic hosts - you cannot be neutral. What determines the side you pick are your actions and inactions. If you pick the side of God, then you will stay away from sin and cling to Jesus Christ daily (Luke 9:23), you will pray, study your Bible, witness and do all that He requires of you daily. Those who pick the devil's side live according to the dictates of their flesh and commit sin. For those who stay away from sin, they will end up victorious and make it to heaven at the end  (Revelation 3:5), while those who commit sin will end up in the lake of fire with the devil and his demons. (Matthew 25:41). The choice is in your actions.

REFLECTION 

Check your life and be sincere with yourself: Are you on the side of Jesus Christ or on the side of the devil?

BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: 2 Samuel 4-7

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.

Open Heavens Daily Devotional by Pastor E.A. Adeboye

OPEN HEAVENS DAILY DEVOTIONAL 

DATE: SATURDAY APRIL 1ST, 2023.

THEME: WHO IS YOUR FATHER?

MEMORISE: 

The thief cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy: I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly. 

John 10:10 

READ: John 10:10 -16

10 The thief cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy: I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly.

11 I am the good shepherd: the good shepherd giveth his life for the sheep.

12 But he that is an hireling, and not the shepherd, whose own the sheep are not, seeth the wolf coming, and leaveth the sheep, and fleeth: and the wolf catcheth them, and scattereth the sheep.

13 The hireling fleeth, because he is an hireling, and careth not for the sheep.

14 I am the good shepherd, and know my sheep, and am known of mine.

15 As the Father knoweth me, even so know I the Father: and I lay down my life for the sheep.

16 And other sheep I have, which are not of this fold: them also I must bring, and they shall hear my voice; and there shall be one fold, and one shepherd.

MESSAGE

My Father-in-the- Lord - Pa Josiah Akindayomi used to say that your father can only take care of you with what he has. If your Father is Jesus Christ, then since He owns the cattle on a thousand hills ( Psalm 50:10), has healing in His wings (Malachi 4:2) and all good things come from Him (James 1:17), then He will take care of you with all these. However, if your father is the devil, since he is a thief, liar and killer (John 10:10), then he will harm you with all he has. Which of them do you want as your father?

I realised a long time ago that the devil had nothing good to offer me. I remember about 50 Byears ago when l was growing very fast. I became a lecturer at the University of Lagos, bought a car and had built a house before l was thirty years old. Due to this fast growth, my people took me to a witch doctor they considered to be very powerful and asked him to give me charms for protection against enemies who may have been jealous of me.

The witch doctor asked me to come with a live goat which l must lead through the streets of Oshogbo. Since l thought it was for my good, l parked my car and went through the stress of walking a goat through the streets of Oshogbo to the witch doctor's house. He gave me three amulets in exchange for the goat - one to be tied to the steering wheel of my car to prevent collision with any car in front of me, the second to be kept in the boot of my car to prevent being hit from behind and the third to be tied to the drivers seat so that if l was involved in an accident l would disappear. I returned to Lagos thinking that l was super-charged, but in two weeks, l had three accidents! I realised there was no protection in the amulets and threw them into the lagoon. I thank God that since l surrender my life to Jesus Christ, He has become my Father and the fear of the unknown has been banished from my life. Even if l have enemies, my Lord sets a table for me in their presence (psalm 23:5).

The devil is a liar and has nothing good to offer you. If the devil gives you anything, he will take something far more valuable from you. Don't fall for his deception. Only God can give good and perfect gifts.

KEY POINT

Only God can give good and perfect gifts. 

BIBLE IN ONE YEAR:2Samuel 1-3

AUTHOR: PASTOR E.A. ADEBOYE

HYMN 6: I AM SO GLAD THAT OUR FATHER IN HEAV'N

1 I am so glad that our Father in heav’n

Tells of His love in the Book He has giv’n;

Wonderful things in the Bible I see:

This is the dearest, that Jesus loves me.

Refrain:

I am so glad that Jesus loves me,

Jesus loves me, Jesus loves me;

I am so glad that Jesus loves me,

Jesus loves even me.

2 Though I forget Him and wander away,

Still He doth love me whenever I stray;

Back to His dear loving arms would I flee,

When I remember that Jesus loves me.

3 Oh, if there’s only one song I can sing,

When in His beauty I see the great King,

This shall my song in eternity be:

“Oh, what a wonder that Jesus loves me.”d,
