Open Heavens Daily Devotional by Pastor E.A. Adeboye

OPEN HEAVENS DAILY DEVOTIONAL 

DATE: TUESDAY MAY 2ND, 2023.

THEME: CRITERIA FOR PROMOTION 

MEMORISE: 

Thus saith the LORD, Let not the wise man glory in his wisdom, neither let the mighty man glory in his might, let not the rich man glory in his riches: 

Jeremiah 9:23

READ: 1 Corinthians 1:26-29

26 For ye see your calling, brethren, how that not many wise men after the flesh, not many mighty, not many noble, are called:

27 But God hath chosen the foolish things of the world to confound the wise; and God hath chosen the weak things of the world to confound the things which are mighty;

28 And base things of the world, and things which are despised, hath God chosen, yea, and things which are not, to bring to nought things that are:

29 That no flesh should glory in his presence.

MESSAGE

I have come to discover from my walk with God that He usually promotes the most unlikely people. Our Bible reading for today tells us that the people who qualify for God 's promotion are usually those considered foolish, weak, little and unimportant. These are the kind of people God usually lifts up because He does not want anyone to take His glory. He does not want anyone thinking it was their achievements that made God choose them for promotion.

God chose Saul as the first king of Israel, even though the young man considered himself unworthy (1 Samuel 9:21).

When Saul disobeyed and God wanted to promote someone else to his position, He sent Samuel to anoint one of Jesse's sons. When Samuel asked Jesse to bring all his sons, David was not summoned because he was considered the least important among his sons. Jesse obviously thought there was absolutely no way David could be chosen as king, but that was exactly the fellow that God chose. God does not choose those who think they are wise. He chooses the foolish. The moment you think you are the best man for the job, God actually sees you as the worst. You cannot succeed at any divine assignment by your own power and might but only by His Spirit (Zechariah 4:6).

Anytime l travel and have the opportunity to speak with ministers in any nation, they always have one thing that they want me to address and that is lack of unity amongst them. I often explain to them that the challenge is not that they do not want to be united, rather, it is a question of who will be the leader once they are united? I often go further to say, "If you realise that God usually chooses the foolish one to be the head, you won't want to be that fellow, because being the head makes it obvious to everyone that you must be the most foolish of them all".

Beloved, if you realise that God will only choose the weak, the base, then you won't struggle for positions. Keep doing exploits from whatever position you find yourself and rely completely on God as your source of help and direction. In due course, He will promote you far beyond your expectations.

KEY POINT

Dont lobby for any position, dedicate yourself to doing the will of God and He will promote you at the right time.

BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: 1 Chronicles 10-12

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.

•Happy New Month!!!

Open Heavens Daily Devotional by Pastor E.A. Adeboye

OPEN HEAVENS DAILY DEVOTIONAL 

DATE: MONDAY MAY  1ST, 2023.

THEME: GOD CAN PROMOTE ANYONE

MEMORISE: 

He raiseth up the poor out of the dust, and lifteth the needy out of the dunghill; That he may set him with princes, even with the princes of his people. 

Psalms 113:7 -8

READ: Psalms 75:5 -7

5 Lift not up your horn on high: speak not with a stiff neck.

6 For promotion cometh neither from the east, nor from the west, nor from the south.

7 But God is the judge: he putteth down one, and setteth up another.

MESSAGE

Our Bible reading says clearly that God is the One who promotes. God alone is the One who promotes - no other person can, not even the so called godfathers. Striving for positions and receiving titles do not amount to being promoted. Saul still had the title 'king' for several years after God had already rejected him and anointed David in his place. This was why he was helpless before Goliath while David who had been anointed to take his place defeated the giant. When you read 1 Samuel 18:7, you see from the song of the women and children that they had a higher regard for David than Saul even though Saul was still considered the king.

Now that it is clear that God is the one who promotes, the next question is: Who are the people that God usually chooses for promotion? 1 Samuel 2:7-8 says:

The Lord maketh poor, and maketh rich: he bringeth low, and lifteth up. He raise up the poor out of the dust, and lifts up the beggar from the dunghill, to set them among princes, and to make them inherit the throne of glory: for the pillars of the earth are the Lord's, and he hath set the world upon them.

God pick up a beggar from dunghill and begin to promote him until he starts dining with kings. God can promote anyone and my prayer for you today is that your promotion will come rapidly, in Jesus' name. No one is out of reach for divine promotion. No matter how low you are now, God can still promote you to a place so high that it would bear the imagination of the whole world when they hear your story. If you want God to promote you, you must be one person that He sure will do His will when you get promoted.

And when he had removed him, he raised up unto them David to be their king; to whom also he gave their testimony, and said, l have found David the son of Jesse, a man after mine own heart, which shall fulfil all my will.

Acts 13:22

Can God count on you to fulfil His will after He has promoted you? If your answer is 'yes' then get ready for a divinely arranged promotion.

REFLECTION

Do you do the will of God always.

BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: 1 Chronicles 7-9

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.

Open Heavens Daily Devotional by Pastor E.A. Adeboye

OPEN HEAVENS DAILY DEVOTIONAL 

DATE: SUNDAY APRIL 30TH, 2023.

THEME: DOMINION OVER YOURSELF

MEMORISE: 

He that hath no rule over his own spirit is like a city that is broken down, and without walls. 

Proverbs 25:28 

READ: 1 Corinthians 9:24 -27

24 Know ye not that they which run in a race run all, but one receiveth the prize? So run, that ye may obtain.

25 And every man that striveth for the mastery is temperate in all things. Now they do it to obtain a corruptible crown; but we an incorruptible.

26 I therefore so run, not as uncertainly; so fight I, not as one that beateth the air:

27 But I keep under my body, and bring it into subjection: lest that by any means, when I have preached to others, I myself should be a castaway.

MESSAGE

God created man in His own image so that he could have dominion (Genesis 1:26). This is why you'll discover that there is no animal in the world that human have not dominated - lions, elephants, giraffes and so on. Note however, that the man who really has dominion is the one who has control over himself. You can have dominion over animals, birds and everything in the sea, but if you don't have dominion over yourself, you are like a broken down and unduly exposed city (Proverbs 25:28).

Let us consider some parts of your body you most have dominion over. 1 Peter 3:10 says if you want to live long and have good life, tame your tongue - have dominion over it. The tongue is very powerful and difficult to tame (James 3:5-8) but you can do all things through Christ who strengthens you (Philippians 4:13)

The Bible also says you should have dominion over your stomach. Philippians 3:19 urges you not to let your belly become your God. If you say you have dominion over everything but can't control your stomach, you can't fast, then you have no dominion because you have a strange God living within you. The Yoruba elders say, "There's no idol like the stomach, every day,it asks for a sacrifice". You have to, tame your stomach.

You must also have control over your sleep. For you to say you have dominion, you must be able to decide, "I am not sleeping tonight; l want to have a vigil". Proverbs 6:9-11 says that if you don't control how you sleep, you will experience ravaging poverty and lack.

You must have control over your body - your eyes, hands and so on. There are certain things you shouldn't touch or look at, places you shouldn't go to, kinds of music you shouldn't listen to. If you want to finish your Christian race well, you must have dominion over your body (1Corinthians 9:24-27).

PRAYER POINT

Lord, please help me to have complete dominion over every aspect of my life and body, in the mighty name of Jesus.

BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: 1 Chronicle 5-6

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.
