Open Heavens Daily Devotional by Pastor E.A. Adeboye

OPEN HEAVENS DAILY DEVOTIONAL 


DATE: SATURDAY JUNE 17TH, 2023.


THEME: TIME AND OPPORTUNITIES


MEMORISE: 

So teach us to number our days, that we may apply our hearts unto wisdom. 

Psalms 90:12


READ: Proverbs 3:5 -7

5 Trust in the LORD with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding.


6 In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths.


7 Be not wise in thine own eyes: fear the LORD, and depart from evil.


MESSAGE

Time is quite a difficult concept to define. One very simple way to describe it is that it is a river that constantly flows. It keeps flowing in a certain direction and carries everyone along with it. No matter what you are doing, time keeps flowing on. Therefore, when you don't do what you are supposed to at the right time, not only would you have wasted a part of your time on earth, but a part of your life also. This is why you cannot afford to be lazy.


One of the things you must understand about the river called time is that it is carrying you on, it is constantly throwing opportunities at you. It carries you through this opportunities from the day you were born until the day you die. As you flow, you go from one place to another and come across one or another. Each person or place comes as an opportunity. If you don't grab it when you are there, you may miss it forever as the river doesn't flow backwards. When you understand this about time, you will realize that what decides if you will be successful is your ability to identify and make use of opportunities (Ecclesiastes 9:11).


The river called time has boundaries on both sides and you are usually in the middle. Occasionally, when God really loves you, He brings you in contact with the right person and tells you to follow him or her. If you are wise enough to obey Him without questions, then you will arrive at your God-ordained destiny. This is what happened to me when l met my Father-in-the-Lord-Pa Akindayomi. I had a Ph.D. in Mathematics which was a big deal back then. My Father-in-the-Lord could not even read or write. He could only read the Bible because of a God-given ability, yet God said l should submit to and follow him. Eventually, when he was going to be with the Lord, he wrote in his will that l should take over the leadership of the Church. My salary at the time was more than the income of the entire Church, but l obeyed. That is how the river of time brought me to where am now.


If you want to fulfil your destiny, rely on God to show you the opportunities hidden in the people you meet and places you go, so that you will arrive at your expected end.


PRAYER POINT

Father, please don't let me ever miss my opportunities in life in Jesus name.


BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: Psalm 69-72


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.

DATE: FRIDAY JUNE 16TH, 2023.


THEME: JUST START


MEMORISE: 

Have not I commanded thee? Be strong and of a good courage; be not afraid, neither be thou dismayed: for the LORD thy God is with thee whithersoever thou goest. 

Joshua 1:9


READ: Isaiah 43:15 -19

15 I am the LORD, your Holy One, the creator of Israel, your King.


16 Thus saith the LORD, which maketh a way in the sea, and a path in the mighty waters;


17 Which bringeth forth the chariot and horse, the army and the power; they shall lie down together, they shall not rise: they are extinct, they are quenched as tow.


18 Remember ye not the former things, neither consider the things of old.


19 Behold, I will do a new thing; now it shall spring forth; shall ye not know it? I will even make a way in the wilderness, and rivers in the desert.


MESSAGE

I grew up in a very poor home. My father was extremely poor, yet he had two wives and many children. He also had a small farm that could not support the family if he died. So l decided that l wasn't going to die in that state of poverty and l knew that the only way out was to study hard in school. I studied hard and gained admission to Ilesha Grammar School but when the results came, my mother called me into the room and said, "You this boy, what are you trying to do? You know we have no money, and you say you want to go to Grammar School." Then she begged me, "Please my boy, Christmas is coming, l will buy you good clothes. Forget about this Grammar School." This was in 1955. To show her how serious l was, l refused to eat for two days and was prepared to continue my hunger strike on the third day when she and my father somehow got some money and deposited it to the school. One way or the other, l finished secondary school and gained admission into university and today l am where l am.


Success does not come to people who consider their limitations before they move.


The slothful man saith, There is a lion in the way; a lion is in the streets.


Proverbs 26:13


No matter the odds against you, if you can ignore those odds and just set out, there is success waiting for you out there. See those things that you call limitations as tests challenging your abilities. A champion is rated by the opponent he faces, the bigger the opponent he faces, the greater the title. The stronger the opposition you face, the greater your level of success. Most people know the heavyweight champion of the world, but if you are to ask around only a few know the lightweight champion


The reason my success story is interesting to many is because of the low level l came from. Get up and face those limitations; the reward will be worthwhile.


Be ye strong therefore, and let not your hands be weak: for your work shall be rewarded.


KEY POINT

There is no limitation you cannot surmount if you have Christ in you . (Philippians 4:13)



BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: Psalm 62-68


AUTHOR: PASTOR E.A. ADEBOYE


HYMN 5: BLESSED ASSURANCE


1 Blessed assurance, Jesus is mine;


Oh, what a foretaste of glory divine!


Heir of salvation, purchase of God,


Born of His Spirit, washed in His blood.


  This is my story, this is my song,


Praising my Savior all the day long.


This is my story, this is my song,


  Praising my Savior all the day long.


2 Perfect submission, perfect delight,


Visions of rapture now burst on my sight;


Angels descending, bring from above


Echoes of mercy, whispers of love.


3 Perfect submission, all is at rest,


I in my Savior am happy and blest;


Watching and waiting, looking above,


Filled with His goodness, lost in His love.

OPEN HEAVENS DAILY DEVOTIONAL 


DATE: THURSDAY JUNE 15TH, 2023.


THEME: BE SPIRITUALLY MINDED 


MEMORISE: 

For to be carnally minded is death; but to be spiritually minded is life and peace. 

Romans 8:6 


READ: 2 Chronicles 16:1 -14

1 In the six and thirtieth year of the reign of Asa Baasha king of Israel came up against Judah, and built Ramah, to the intent that he might let none go out or come in to Asa king of Judah.


2 Then Asa brought out silver and gold out of the treasures of the house of the LORD and of the king's house, and sent to Benhadad king of Syria, that dwelt at Damascus, saying,


3 There is a league between me and thee, as there was between my father and thy father: behold, I have sent thee silver and gold; go, break thy league with Baasha king of Israel, that he may depart from me.


4 And Benhadad hearkened unto king Asa, and sent the captains of his armies against the cities of Israel; and they smote Ijon, and Dan, and Abelmaim, and all the store cities of Naphtali.


5 And it came to pass, when Baasha heard it, that he left off building of Ramah, and let his work cease.


6 Then Asa the king took all Judah; and they carried away the stones of Ramah, and the timber thereof, wherewith Baasha was building; and he built therewith Geba and Mizpah.


7 And at that time Hanani the seer came to Asa king of Judah, and said unto him, Because thou hast relied on the king of Syria, and not relied on the LORD thy God, therefore is the host of the king of Syria escaped out of thine hand.


8 Were not the Ethiopians and the Lubims a huge host, with very many chariots and horsemen? yet, because thou didst rely on the LORD, he delivered them into thine hand.


9 For the eyes of the LORD run to and fro throughout the whole earth, to shew himself strong in the behalf of them whose heart is perfect toward him. Herein thou hast done foolishly: therefore from henceforth thou shalt have wars.


10 Then Asa was wroth with the seer, and put him in a prison house; for he was in a rage with him because of this thing. And Asa oppressed some of the people the same time.


11 And, behold, the acts of Asa, first and last, lo, they are written in the book of the kings of Judah and Israel.


12 And Asa in the thirty and ninth year of his reign was diseased in his feet, until his disease was exceeding great: yet in his disease he sought not to the LORD, but to the physicians.


13 And Asa slept with his fathers, and died in the one and fortieth year of his reign.


14 And they buried him in his own sepulchres, which he had made for himself in the city of David, and laid him in the bed which was filled with sweet odours and divers kinds of spices prepared by the apothecaries' art: and they made a very great burning for him.


MESSAGE

Some people find it difficult to trust God. They would rather put their trust in things that they can see than in the Lord that they cannot see. Many times, it is because we are intelligent and our intelligence has helped us in the past so we want to be able to use it for everything. I once went to minister the Holy Ghost baptism to a group of people; the uneducated ones were baptised almost as soon as the ministration started, but the educated ones were looking around, trying to understand how the baptism would come. These were doubting Thomases. Thomas was a man who would not believe until he saw with his eyes. John 20:29 says, "Jesus saith unto him, Thomas, because thou hast seen me, thou hast believed: blessed are they that have not seen, and yet have believed."


Apostle Paul also said:

While we look not at the things which are seen, but at the things which are not seen: for the things which are seen are temporal; but the things which are not seen are eternal.


2 Corinthians 4:18


Where you look to when you are in need of help is where your faith lies. For example, David said he would look up to the hills from whence came his help -the Lord (psalm 121:1-2). If you look to man, then your faith lies in man. If you look to your money, then that is where your faith lies. God can use either to meet your need, but you are to look to God and God alone. God is displeased when you have faith in anything or anyone else but Him. Hebrews 11:6 says without faith it is impossible to please God. Until you take your eyes off the physical and set them on Him in the Spirit, some things will remain out of your reach.


In our Bible reading for today, Asa found it difficult to look to God for his healing even when physicians had failed him. This is a stronghold of the devil that must be broken. If you study your Bible diligently, pray without ceasing, and fellowship regularly with other believers, you would soon begin to see how the spiritual controls the physical.


Spend more time with God than you do with man and that stronghold of dependence on physical things will be broken.


ACTION POINT 

Put your trust in God, He is the only One that can help you.


BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: Psalm 56-61


AUTHOR: PASTOR E.A. ADEBOYE


HYMN 30: WHEN WE WALK WITH THE LORD 


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. [Refrain]


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. [Refrain]


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;

Open Heavens Daily Devotional by Pastor E.A. Adeboye

OPEN HEAVENS DAILY DEVOTIONAL 


DATE: WEDNESDAY JUNE 14TH, 2023.


THEME: DON'T BE AFRAID


MEMORISE: 

There is no fear in love; but perfect love casteth out fear: because fear hath torment. He that feareth is not made perfect in love. 

1 John 4:18


READ: Isaiah 41:10-20

10  Fear thou not; for I am with thee: be not dismayed; for I am thy God: I will strengthen thee; yea, I will help thee; yea, I will uphold thee with the right hand of my righteousness.


11 Behold, all they that were incensed against thee shall be ashamed and confounded: they shall be as nothing; and they that strive with thee shall perish.


12 Thou shalt seek them, and shalt not find them, even them that contended with thee: they that war against thee shall be as nothing, and as a thing of nought.


13 For I the LORD thy God will hold thy right hand, saying unto thee, Fear not; I will help thee.


14 Fear not, thou worm Jacob, and ye men of Israel; I will help thee, saith the LORD, and thy redeemer, the Holy One of Israel.


15 Behold, I will make thee a new sharp threshing instrument having teeth: thou shalt thresh the mountains, and beat them small, and shalt make the hills as chaff.


16 Thou shalt fan them, and the wind shall carry them away, and the whirlwind shall scatter them: and thou shalt rejoice in the LORD, and shalt glory in the Holy One of Israel.


17 When the poor and needy seek water, and there is none, and their tongue faileth for thirst, I the LORD will hear them, I the God of Israel will not forsake them.


18 I will open rivers in high places, and fountains in the midst of the valleys: I will make the wilderness a pool of water, and the dry land springs of water.


19 I will plant in the wilderness the cedar, the shittah tree, and the myrtle, and the oil tree; I will set in the desert the fir tree, and the pine, and the box tree together:


20 That they may see, and know, and consider, and understand together, that the hand of the LORD hath done this, and the Holy One of Israel hath created it.


MESSAGE

Our memory verse for today says that fear is a tormentor. According to 2 Timothy 1:7, fear is a spirit and since it is not a gift from God, then it is from the devil. In Proverbs 29:25, God says the fear of man brings snare. In other words, if you are afraid of man you will fall into a trap. The reason many people run to witch doctors is fear, which is why they keep looking for protection against all kinds of enemies.


One of the things that makes fear so terrible is that almost invariably, that which you are afraid of will come to you (Job 3:25). The fear of death has put many people in bondage today. The question now is: is everyone not going to die anyway? Hebrews 9:27 says death is an appointment that everyone must keep. The devil keeps people in bondage because of something that they should be prepared for rather than afraid of.


When you have God with you, fear will get away from you. David said that the reason he had no fear in the valley of the shadow of death is because he had the presence of God with him (Psalm 23:4). Romans 8:15 says you do not have the spirit of bondage to fear, rather, that of adoption, giving you the right to Call God your Daddy. The true realisation that you are a child of God and that God is with you always will chase fear out of your life. No child is afraid of a bully when his father is standing beside him. As long as you are a child of God who lives holy, you can be sure that God is with you always. Our Bible reading for today says you should not be afraid for God is with you, it says He will hold your hand and strengthen you. If you have God on your side, you have nothing to fear.


Draw close to God and He will draw close to you (James 4:8). This means that if you surrender your life to Jesus and begin to live a holy life, God will come close to you and fear will disappear from your life. Sin will create a gap between you and God as He won't even hear the prayers of unrepentant sinners (John 9:31)not to talk of saving them from danger.


The only thing l fear is for God to leave me because if He does, l know that l am finished. That is why l live holy; l cannot afford to be away from His presence. What about you?


KEY POINT

Gods presence drives away fear.


BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: Psalm 50-55
