THEME: DESTINY DESTROYERS II

MEMORISE: 

But he giveth more grace. Wherefore he saith, God resisteth the proud, but giveth grace unto the humble. 

James 4:6

READ: 1 Peter 5:6 

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

MESSAGE

From our memory verse for today, we see that God resists the proud. If the Almighty God for is your opponent, how will you ever win? The major problem of proud people is that they don't even know that they are proud. They call it other beautiful names like self-respect, self-confidence, or they say, "I am just honouing my position". Saul was asking Samuel to honour his position in 2 Samuel 15: 30 when he lost his honour his position in 1 Samuel 15:30 when he lost his throne. David on the other hand danced like a commoner even as King and was mocked by his own wife. He told her, "I am dancing for the One who made me king in the place of your father" (2 Samuel 6:16-21).

During praise and worship, you will know who is proud and who is not. Look at children; because they aren't seeking to protect any position or anything like that, they just praise God, dancing the best way they can. During a service we held in one of the Universities in Nigeria, the Vice Chancellor danced even more than the students. God looked down from heaven and saw that, so when some weeks later the enemy rose up to remove him, the Lord of hosts fought on his behalf and gave him victory. When you humble yourself, God fights your battles for you.

After one of the biggest programmes we ever held - tagged Lekki '98, l got back to the Camp and that night during my prayer walk, between 2 a.m. and 3 a.m, l suddenly heard God say, "Son, bend down and draw the figure of a man in the sand". I drew the figure and then He said, "Stand up and wipe out what you have draw with your foot".  I did that, and then He said, "Son, if you ever forget who is in charge, l will wipe you out and nobody will ever remember you came into the world". It does not matter how high God has taken you, He can bring you down with the snap of His fingers. Proverbs 16:18 says, "Pride goeth before destruction, and an haughty spirit before a fall".

You would be wise to become more humble as you can, because the higher you go, the greater the fall if you become proud.

PRAYER POINT 

Father, please grant unto me the grace and wisdom to humble myself before You from now in Jesus name.

BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: 1King 8-9

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  

There in the ground His body lay 

3 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 

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

THEME: DESTINY DESTROYERS: PRIDE 1

MEMORISE: 

For whosoever exalteth himself shall be abased; and he that humbleth himself shall be exalted. 

Luke 14:11 

READ: Luke 14:7 -11

7 And he put forth a parable to those which were bidden, when he marked how they chose out the chief rooms; saying unto them,

8 When thou art bidden of any man to a wedding, sit not down in the highest room; lest a more honourable man than thou be bidden of him;

9 And he that bade thee and him come and say to thee, Give this man place; and thou begin with shame to take the lowest room.

10 But when thou art bidden, go and sit down in the lowest room; that when he that bade thee cometh, he may say unto thee, Friend, go up higher: then shalt thou have worship in the presence of them that sit at meat with thee.

11 For whosoever exalteth himself shall be abased; and he that humbleth himself shall be exalted.

MESSAGE

A man's pride shall bring him low: but honour shall uphold the humble in spirit.

Proverbs 29:23

Pride is one of the greatest destroyers, of men - especially those who have achieved something great. That means if the devil wants to bring a great man down, he does not have to bother himself sending witches and wizards to that man, all he has to do is bring out the pride in the man. Proverbs 25:27 says:

It is not good to eat much honey: so for men to search their own glory is not glory.

Seeking glory for yourself will not bring you glory but shame. Stop seeking people to lift you on their shoulders as if you are the best thing to have come into the world, humble yourself. The devil was once a very special arch-angel in heaven, but pride got into his head because of how beautiful he was. He started seeking glory for himself, even the glory of God's own throne. He ended up being brought so low that, at the end of time, he will be locked up in the pit of fire to suffer forever.

The prescription of God for every Christian is to prefer others above yourself in honour. Romans 12:10 says, "Be kindly affection one to another with brotherly love; in honour preferring one another".

The day you forget that everything you have is given to you by God you begin to decline. Nebuchadnezzar was warned in Daniel 4:24-27 like l am warning you now, but he didn't heed the counsel. Pride rose up in him and he started to boast about the things that God had done through him, calling them his achievements. He was brought so low that he was eating with the animals in the bush. James 4:5 says those who want the grace of God to work in their lives must be humble. Be humble, pride is a destiny destroyer.

PRAYER POINT 

Father, please destroy the root of pride in my life in Jesus name.

BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: 1King 6-7

AUTHOR: PASTOR E.A. ADEBOYE

HYMN 15: PASS ME NOT O GENTLE SAVIOUR 

1 Pass me not, O gentle Savior,

Hear my humble cry,

While on others Thou art calling,

Do not pass me by.

Refrain:

Savior, Savior,

Hear my humble cry;

While on others Thou art calling,

Do not pass me by.

2 Let me at a throne of mercy

Find a sweet relief;

Kneeling there in deep contrition,

Help my unbelief. 

3 Trusting only in Thy merit,

Would I seek Thy face;

Heal my wounded, broken spirit,

Save me by Thy grace. 

4 Thou the Spring of all my comfort,

More than life to me,

Whom have I on earth beside Thee?

Whom in heav'n but Thee?

Open Heavens Daily Devotionl by Pastor E.A. Adeboye

OPEN HEAVENS DAILY DEVOTIONAL

DATE: MONDAY 10TH APRIL 2023

TOPIC: THE SEASONS OF CHRIST

MEMORISE:

He is not here: for he is risen, as he said. Come, see the place where the Lord lay.

Matthew 28:6

READ: Matthew 28:1-7

28:1: In the end of the sabbath, as it began to dawn toward the first day of the week, came Mary Magdalene and the other Mary to see the sepulchre.

28:2: And, behold, there was a great earthquake: for the angel of the Lord descended from heaven, and came and rolled back the stone from the door, and sat upon it.

28:3: His countenance was like lightning, and his raiment white as snow:

28:4: And for fear of him the keepers did shake, and became as dead men.

28:5: And the angel answered and said unto the women, Fear not ye: for I know that ye seek Jesus, which was crucified.

28:6: He is not here: for he is risen, as he said. Come, see the place where the Lord lay.

28:7: And go quickly, and tell his disciples that he is risen from the dead; and, behold, he goeth before you into Galilee; there shall ye see him: lo, I have told you.

MESSAGE

Between every two days in a man's life, there is always a night. Even Jesus Christ experienced His own share of days and nights. Jesus' first day came when He was born. Luke 2:8-14 says even the heavenly mass choir paid a visit to the world to sing at His birth. Everyone, including the king knew that a special child had been born. As Jesus grew up, He enjoyed tremendous support from God and performed several great miracles. His first day lasted for thirty three and a half years.

After Jesus' first day came the night when He was crucified (Matthew 27). There was darkness at noon as the sun refused to shine that day (Mark 15:33). He was lonely as all his friends had forsaken him. His very close friend even denied Him (Matthew 26:69-74).There was also sorrow and fear amongst His disciples (John 20:19). Thank God the night lasted for just three days. If you are in a period of night now, that night will end today in Jesus' name.

Matthew 28:1-7 marked the beginning of Jesus' second day. Several things happened to herald the new day. First was a great earthquake to signify to the whole world that a new day had come. Then an angel came down, rolled away the stone to His tomb and sat on it. He sat on it to say, this time around, we have permanent victory. From today onward, every door that God opens to you will never be shut again in Jesus' name.

Matthew 28:4 says the keepers became paralysed by fear, they were so frightened, they fell down as dead. That is good news for you because now that you are in the season of your Saviour's day, when your enemies see you coming, it's either they run or they faint. Jesus' day is one that will last forever. Soon, He will come to take His children so we can reign with Him in glory. If you are amongst His children, congratulations, but if you are still committing sin, then you are crucifying Jesus Christ afresh (Hebrews 6:6) so you will be treated like one of those who crucified Him. If you are wise, you will give your life to Him now and stay away from sin forever.

KEY POINT:

Jesus’ resurrection means good news to His friends and bad news to sinners. Which category are you?

BIBLE IN ONE YEAR:

1 Kings 3-5

AUTHOR: PASTOR E.A. ADEBOYE

HYMN 4: BE GLAD IN THE LORD AND REJOICE

1. Be glad in the Lord and rejoice

And ye that are upright in heart

And ye that have made Him your choice

Bid sadness and sorrow depart.

Chorus

Rejoice!...rejoice!...

Be glad in the Lord and rejoice!

Rejoice!... rejoice!...

Be glad in the Lord and rejoice!

2. Be joyful for He is the Lord

On earth and in heaven supreme

He fashions and rules by His words

The mighty and strong to redeem.

3. What tho' in the conflict for right

Your enemies almost prevail!

God's armies, just hid from your sight

Are more than the foes which assail.

4. Tho' darkness surround you by day,

Your sky by the night be o'ercast,

Let nothing your spirit dismay

But trust till the danger is past.

5. Be glad in the lord and rejoice,

His praises proclaiming in song.

With harp, and with organ, and voice,

The loud Hallelujahs prolong!
