Open Heavens Daily Devotional by Pastor E.A. Adeboye

OPEN HEAVENS DAILY DEVOTIONAL 


DATE: SATURDAY JUNE 10TH, 2023.


THEME: HONOUR THE ANOINTED


MEMORISE: 

Let the elders that rule well be counted worthy of double honour, especially they who labour in the word and doctrine. 

1 Timothy 5:17 


READ: 2 Kings 4:8 -17

8 And it fell on a day, that Elisha passed to Shunem, where was a great woman; and she constrained him to eat bread. And so it was, that as oft as he passed by, he turned in thither to eat bread.


9 And she said unto her husband, Behold now, I perceive that this is an holy man of God, which passeth by us continually.


10 Let us make a little chamber, I pray thee, on the wall; and let us set for him there a bed, and a table, and a stool, and a candlestick: and it shall be, when he cometh to us, that he shall turn in thither.


11 And it fell on a day, that he came thither, and he turned into the chamber, and lay there.


12 And he said to Gehazi his servant, Call this Shunammite. And when he had called her, she stood before him.


13 And he said unto him, Say now unto her, Behold, thou hast been careful for us with all this care; what is to be done for thee? wouldest thou be spoken for to the king, or to the captain of the host? And she answered, I dwell among mine own people.


14 And he said, What then is to be done for her? And Gehazi answered, Verily she hath no child, and her husband is old.


15 And he said, Call her. And when he had called her, she stood in the door.


16 And he said, About this season, according to the time of life, thou shalt embrace a son. And she said, Nay, my lord, thou man of God, do not lie unto thine handmaid.


17 And the woman conceived, and bare a son at that season that Elisha had said unto her, according to the time of life.


MESSAGE

In 2 Kings 1:9-15, Elijah was sitting on a mountain top when a king sent 50 armed soldiers and a captain to arrest him, Elijah looked defenceless physically but when they tried to arrest him, he called fire down from heaven to roast all of them. When the king sent another 50 soldiers, they got roasted too. Thereafter, he sent another set of 50 soldiers and their captain. When they got to the mountain where Elijah was and saw ashes of the two sets of soldiers that had been consumed by fire, the Bible says the captain fell on his knees and begged the man of God and to spare him as he was only doing his job. The angel of God then spoke to Elijah and said, "You can go with him". What made his case different? Honour. That is why he was able to succeed at what got previous captains and soldiers roasted.


It doesn't matter who you are, if you despise an anointed man or woman of God, if you mock him or her, you could pay dearly for it. In 2 Kings 2:23-24, you see what happened when some children started mocking Elisha; they ended up being eaten by bears. The anointing on a man or woman of God can work dangerously against anyone who despises him or her. Any true man or woman of God will tell you that as the anointing increases, he or she speaks less because whatever he or she says when angry can kill.


There was a man who decided to take over the Parish of The Redeemed Christian Church of God he was pastoring. When l heard the news l simply said, "l leave him to God". The man held a crusade and on his way home, he got killed by armed robbers. I had thought l was careful enough with what l said. Since then, l learned to not take offence easily and if at all l am offended, l keep my mouth shut. It is better to provoke blessing from the anointed than a curse. The easiest way to provoke a man or woman of God to bless you is to honour him or her.


When you honour the anointed, the anointing will work in your favour. The king of Israel honoured Elisha by calling him Father. In turn, Elisha used his anointing to save him and his army when their enemies laid ambush for them. God can solve all your problems in an instant if you would just honour a man or woman of God.


ACTION POINT 

When next you see an anointed person, make sure you do something that just shows the person that you honor him or her.


BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: Psalm 28-33


AUTHOR: PASTOR E.A. ADEBOYE


HYMN 12: ONWARD CHRISTIAN SOLDIERS


1. Onward, Christian soldiers!

Marching as to war,

With the cross of Jesus

Going on before.

Christ, the royal Master,

Leads against the foe;

Forward into battle,

See his banners go!


[Chorus]

Onward, Christian soldiers!Marching as to war,

With the cross of Jesus

Going on before.


2. At the sign of triumph

Satan’s host doth flee;

On, then, Christian soldiers,

On to victory.

Hell’s foundations quiver

At the shout of praise;

Brothers, lift your voices,

Loud your anthems raise.


3. Like a mighty army

Moves the Church of God;

Brothers, we are treading

Where the Saints have trod.

We are not divided;

All one body we:

One in hope and doctrine,

One in charity.


4. Onward, then, ye people;

Join our happy throng.

Blend with ours your voices

In the triumph song:

Glory, laud, and honor

Unto Christ, the King.

This through countless ages

Men and angels sing.

Open Heavens Daily Devotional by Pastor E.A. Adeboye

OPEN HEAVENS DAILY DEVOTIONAL 


DATE: FRIDAY JUNE 9TH, 2023.


THEME: LIGHT UP IV


MEMORISE: 

Then shall thy light break forth as the morning, and thine health shall spring forth speedily: and thy righteousness shall go before thee; the glory of the LORD shall be thy rereward. 

Isaiah 58:8


READ: John 15:12 -15

12 This is my commandment, That ye love one another, as I have loved you.


13 Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends.


14 Ye are my friends, if ye do whatsoever I command you.


15 Henceforth I call you not servants; for the servant knoweth not what his lord doeth: but I have called you friends; for all things that I have heard of my Father I have made known unto you.


MESSAGE

The colour blue is widely considered as the colour of love and it is one of the colors that can be seen in pure light. 1 John 4:8 says God is love. What does love do for you? The mere fact that you are associated with the love of God makes you more than conqueror (Romans 8:37). Deuteronomy 28:1-7 tells us that you don't even have to fight against your enemies if you have the Light inside you. It says if they rise against you, they will be smitten before your face. You don't even have to lift your hands, you just watch as the Lord - your Lover, takes care of your enemies.


There was once a military ruler in Nigeria who wanted to convert  to a civilian president. He consulted some of his occult people and they said that l, would be a threat to his ambition. The military ruler decided to come and pick me up and in those days, whenever that happened, the person involved was not likely to return alive. Fortunately for me, one of my spiritual children working with an arm of government caught whiff of the plan and alerted me that they were coming for me within the next two weeks. I did not tell my wife; l just went out that night on my normal prayer walk and my Lover spoke to me. That is one thing that love does; it enables you to hear secrets from God (John 13:21-26). God told me plainly not to worry and that l would even outlive the fellow. A few days later, at the Holy Ghost Service on the first Friday of June, l said to the congregation, "Greet one another and say, "Happy New Year". They obeyed and indeed by Sunday, the nation experienced a new beginning. That military ruler became deceased and his successor handed over to a democratic elected government. Love made me more than a conqueror.


When you combine all the seven colors that make up the rainbow, they give you the colour white which symbolizes purity and holiness. Purity and holiness will not only attract blessings to you but will also make you see God  (Matthew 5:8). In conclusion, all the blessings we've discussed in this series can only manifest in your life if you obey God's command to live holy (1 Peter 1:16).


KEY POINT

All the benefits of being lit up by God are embedded in holiness.


BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: Psalm 22-27


AUTHOR: PASTOR E.A. ADEBOYE


HYMN 3: ANCIENT WORDS


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.


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.


Holy words of our Faith

Handed down to this age.


Came to us through sacrifice


Oh heed the faithful words of Christ.


Holy words long preserved


For our walk in this world.


They resound with God's own heart


Oh let the ancient words impart.

DATE: THURSDAY JUNE 8TH, 2023.


THEME: LIGHT UP Ill


MEMORISE: 

And I will make thee exceeding fruitful, and I will make nations of thee, and kings shall come out of thee. 

Genesis 17:6 


READ: Mark 16:16 -18

16 He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved; but he that believeth not shall be damned.


17 And these signs shall follow them that believe; In my name shall they cast out devils; they shall speak with new tongues;


18 They shall take up serpents; and if they drink any deadly thing, it shall not hurt them; they shall lay hands on the sick, and they shall recover.


MESSAGE

Embedded in pure light is the color green - the colour  of fruitfulness. John 15:1-5 says there is no way you can have the Light in you and remain barren. The Light that lives within you is the Vine you connect to so as to become fruitful (John 15:5). He gives you the ability to be fruitful even in situations where others have been barren. He said about those who are His children:


There shall nothing cast their young, nor be barren, in thy land: the number of thy days l will fulfil.


Exodus 23:26


Green is also the colour of power (Acts 1:8). When you carry the Light within you, you will have the power of God operating through you. You need power to move forward. It is the engine inside a vehicle that determines how fast it can go. When the Light is within you, you have a very high level of power that makes you accelerate at an unusual speed. In other words, when you carry the Light, your promotion will be extra rapid. Believe me honestly, you can enjoy such great speed in your career that even you will be trembling at the thought of it.


One of my sons came up to me once, saying he had a job interview and he wanted me to just speak a word over him. I said, "Go and the interview will go well." He said, "Amen" and left. He returned the following day excited that not only did the interview go well but that he got the job (Deputy Managing Director) and the board asked him to resume the very next day. I congratulated him and he said, "No, speak another word". I said, "Alright, the Almighty God who has given you the job will make your promotion rapid". He went and then the following day, came again, trembling. "Daddy, l got to the place of work, and was told that after l left the previous day, their Managing Director resigned. There, on the spot, l was offered the role of Managing Director". I congratulated him again and he said, "No Daddy, speak another word". I then said, "The God who has begun a good work in you will perfect it". He came back to testify the day after that his salary, had been doubled.


I speak a word to you now: your promotion shall be rapid in the mighty name of Jesus.


KEY POINT 

The light of God within you will grant you unusual speed in life.


BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: Psalm 18-21


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
