Open Heavens Daily Devotional by Pastor E.A. Adeboye

OPEN HEAVENS DAILY DEVOTIONAL 


DATE: SUNDAY APRIL 23RD, 2023.


THEME: MORE THAN FRUITFULNESS 


MEMORISE: 

Be careful for nothing; but in every thing by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God. 

Philippians 4:6


READ: Psalms 67:5 -6


5 Let the people praise thee, O God; let all the people praise thee.


6 Then shall the earth yield her increase; and God, even our own God, shall bless us.


MESSAGE

My God is so, generous that when He want to make the barren fruitful, He gives them multiple babies. If you don't believe me, ask Hannah. In 1 Samuel 2:21, Hannah asked for just one boy and even promised to give him back to God, but the Lord gave her the boy she asked for and five more children! I have good news for at least one woman who has been labeled barren in nine month's time, you will be carrying your twins, in Jesus' name.


There have been several testimonies at our programmes in The Redeemed Christian Church of God where people were told by doctors that they could not have a baby and God gave them multiple babies. There was one particular woman who the doctors had told that her womb was too small to accommodate a baby. She wrote us and we prayed. From that same womb pronounced as "too small" for one baby, four babies came out at once. I decree once again: it doesn't matter how long you have been waiting for the fruit of the womb, my God will give you multiple children in nine month's time, in Jesus' name.


If you're already bearing fruit and want more, note that John 15:1-2 says if you already have fruit, God will make sure that you bear even more. Being fruitful is however, not limited to child bearing; it also involves business, ministry and many more areas of life. There are two types of fruitful people - those whose fruits increase by addition and those whose fruits increase by multiplication. I don"t know about you, but l prefer to multiply than to merely increase by addition.


The secret to your fruits multiplying is in thanksgiving. When you thank God adequately for the things He did for you yesterday, He will do even more for you today. After Hannah had Samuel, she sang a song of thanksgiving to God and He gave her five more children (1 Samuel 2:1-10, 21). When Jesus needed the multiplication anointing to work on the five loaves of bread and two fishes in Matthew 14:13-21, He simply thanked God for the provision and it began to multiply. Thank God for His provision and watch Him transform you from the realm of additional increase to that of divine multiplication.


PRAYER POINT 

Father, thank you for all the things that you have already done for me. I would never have amounted to anything without your help. Thank you, Lord.


BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: 2King 14-16


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

DATE: SATURDAY APRIL 22ND, 2023.


THEME: MORE THAN BLESSINGS


MEMORISE: 

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

Genesis 22:18


READ: Jeremiah 17:7 -8

7 Blessed is the man that trusteth in the LORD, and whose hope the LORD is.


8 For he shall be as a tree planted by the waters, and that spreadeth out her roots by the river, and shall not see when heat cometh, but her leaf shall be green; and shall not be careful in the year of drought, neither shall cease from yielding fruit.


MESSAGE

Our God is very generous. When He decides to bless, He does so abundantly. For example, when the wedding hosts ran out of wine for their guests, Jesus gave them much better wine in abundance (John 2:1-11). Psalm 68:19 says, "Blessed be the Lord, who daily loadeth us with benefits, even the God of our salvation. Selah."


In Deuteronomy 28:1-2, He  talks about great blessings- blessing so great that they'll overtake you. The kind of blessing that will cause you to say, "Lord this is too much" will begin to come your way from now, in Jesus' name.


Beyond loading you with blessings every day, God can make you so blessed that you will become a blessing to others. That is what He did through  Solomon. In 1Kings 3:13, God said He would bless Solomon so much that no King would be like him all through his life. Solomon's blessing caused Israelites to be blessed also. 1 Kings 10:27 says, "And the king made silver to be in Jerusalem  as stones, and cedars made he to be as the sycomore trees that are in the vale, for abundance."


God can do the same for you. He can bless you so much that no one in your generation will ever be poor again. This type of blessing however, comes to those who give sacrificially to God  like Solomon did in 1 Kings 3:4.


In 2007, one young man came to me, saying he wanted to pay for the feeding at our next convention so l give him a conservative estimate of what it would cost to feed one million people twice daily for a week. He said he would get back to me. I didn't expect to see him again, but he came back the following week as promised and paid for it. Apparently, he had gone to get loan from a bank because he couldn't afford it. Before long, the same bank he took the loan from invited him to become their Managing Director. If you are willing to give sacrificially to God. He will also make you so blessed that you will become a blessing to others.


PRAYER POINT 

Father, please give me the grace to give sacrificially to you, in Jesus name. 


BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: 2King 11-13


AUTHOR: PASTOR E.A. ADEBOYE


HYMN 26: THERE SHALL BE SHOWERS OF BLESSINGS 


1 There shall be showers of blessing:

This is the promise of love;

There shall be seasons refreshing,

Sent from the Savior above.


Refrain:

Showers of blessing,

Showers of blessing we need;

Mercy-drops round us are falling,

But for the showers we plead.


2 There shall be showers of blessing—

Precious reviving again; Over the hills and the valleys,

Sound of abundance of rain.


3 There shall be showers of blessing;

Send them upon us, O Lord!

Grant to us now a refreshing;

Come, and now honor Thy Word.


4 There shall be showers of blessing;

O that today they might fall,

Now as to God we’re confessing,

Now as on Jesus we call!


5 There shall be showers of blessing,

If we but trust and obey;

There shall be seasons refreshing,

If we let God have His way.

THEME: MORE THAN FREEDOM


MEMORISE: 

But thus saith the LORD, Even the captives of the mighty shall be taken away, and the prey of the terrible shall be delivered: for I will contend with him that contendeth with thee, and I will save thy children. 

Isaiah 49:25


READ: 2 Kings 4:1 -7

1 Now there cried a certain woman of the wives of the sons of the prophets unto Elisha, saying, Thy servant my husband is dead; and thou knowest that thy servant did fear the LORD: and the creditor is come to take unto him my two sons to be bondmen.


2 And Elisha said unto her, What shall I do for thee? tell me, what hast thou in the house? And she said, Thine handmaid hath not any thing in the house, save a pot of oil.


3 Then he said, Go, borrow thee vessels abroad of all thy neighbours, even empty vessels; borrow not a few.


4 And when thou art come in, thou shalt shut the door upon thee and upon thy sons, and shalt pour out into all those vessels, and thou shalt set aside that which is full.


5 So she went from him, and shut the door upon her and upon her sons, who brought the vessels to her; and she poured out.


6 And it came to pass, when the vessels were full, that she said unto her son, Bring me yet a vessel. And he said unto her, There is not a vessel more. And the oil stayed.


7 Then she came and told the man of God. And he said, Go, sell the oil, and pay thy debt, and live thou and thy children of the rest.


MESSAGE

God doesn't know how to be stingy; whatever He does, He does generously. David said in Psalm 23:5, "...thou anointest my head with oil; my cup runneth over". That is God's nature; when He give you something, He gives it to you in abundance.


One day many years ago while l was preaching, the Lord said there was someone in the congregation who will get three breakthroughs. The first was to be given completely to Him, the second shared between the fellow and Him and then the third one would be for the fellow alone. Sometime later, a woman came to me with a huge amount of money and said she had come to fulfil her part of the bargain. I knew this woman- she was a widow whose husband had left a huge debt upon his death. She however, insisted that the prophecy was for her and l couldn't  do anything to dissuade her. Not long after, she returned with more money, this was half of the second breakthrough. After this she came back with a testimony: the bank her husband had been indebted to called her to apologize saying they had made a mistake and rather than her husband owing them, they were the ones owing him! They paid the money to her and it was a lot. When God sets you free from debt, He does it such that it will be difficult for you to get into debt again. If you are in debt now, the All-Sufficient God will set you free from it In Jesus' name.


John8:36 says, "If the Son therefore shall make you free, ye shall be free indeed". When a person is medically healed from an ailment, there might still be traces left behind, but when Jesus set you free, He does it perfectly, making you whole. If you have been in any form of bondage, receive total freedom right now, in Jesus' name.


Not only will God set you free indeed, He can even empower you to set captives free (Mark 16:17), so that you would cast out demons from their victims. This privilege is given to God's children who are ready to fast and pray often (Matthew 17:21).


PRAYERS POINT 

Father, please set me free from all form of bondage and use me to set all the captives free.


BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: 2King 9-10

DATE: THURSDAY APRIL 20TH, 2023.


THEME: MORE THAN SALVATION


MEMORISE: 

The fruit of the righteous is a tree of life; and he that winneth souls is wise. 

Proverbs 11:30


READ: Romans 1:16 


16 For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek.


MESSAGE

My God is a very generous God. When He wants to save someone, He doesn't just save the fellow's soul, He wipes away all records of that person's sin to make it as if he had never committed any. 1 John 1:7 says, "But  if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship one with another, and the blood of Jesus Christ his Son cleansers us from all sin." Believe me honestly, it does not matter how badly you have sinned in the past, God can still save your soul and use you for His glory.


After saving your soul, He doesn't just leave you to figure out how you can remain holy by yourself, He gives you the ability not to sin again by changing your heart from a heart of stone to one of flesh.


A new heart also will I give you, and a new spirit will l put within you: and I will take away the stony heart out of your flesh, and l will give you an heart of flesh.


Ezekiel 36:26


This is the real meaning of grace, when you become empowered by God to live holy. Beyond giving you the grace to live holy, God is so generous that He can even use you to save the souls of other people from going to hell. This is such a rare privilege because anyone you bring into the kingdom  of God becomes your child in the Lord (1 Corinthians 4:15). When was the last time you won a soul to Christ? When was the last time you let God use you to snatch someone from the hands of the devil into the loving hands of Christ?


If you don't extend the same grace that God has given you to become His child to your friends and family members, you are being wicked to them. God makes the feet of those who preached His word beautiful.


...How beautiful are the feet of them that preach the gospel of peace, and being glad tidings of good things.


Romans 10:15


Tell every unbeliever around you about Jesus Christ before it is too late.


ACTION POINT

Today, minister the gospel of Jesus Christ to at least one unbeliever around you.


BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: 2King 6-8


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.
