Open Heavens Daily Devotional by Pastor E.A. Adeboye

OPEN HEAVENS DAILY DEVOTIONAL 

DATE: WEDNESDAY JULY 26TH, 2023.

THEME: FEAR GOD II

MEMORISE: 

Behold, the eye of the LORD is upon them that fear him, upon them that hope in his mercy; 

Psalms 33:18

READ: Psalms 96:1 -9

1 O sing unto the LORD a new song: sing unto the LORD, all the earth.

2 Sing unto the LORD, bless his name; shew forth his salvation from day to day.

3. Declare his glory among the heathen, his wonders among all people.

4 For the LORD is great, and greatly to be praised: he is to be feared above all gods.

5 For all the gods of the nations are idols: but the LORD made the heavens.

6 Honour and majesty are before him: strength and beauty are in his sanctuary.

7 Give unto the LORD, O ye kindreds of the people, give unto the LORD glory and strength.

8 Give unto the LORD the glory due unto his name: bring an offering, and come into his courts.

9 O worship the LORD in the beauty of holiness: fear before him, all the earth.

MESSAGE

We started, discussing the fear of the Lord yesterday and today we will look at some of the blessings that come to those who fear Him. 

Our memory verse says:

Behold, the eye of the Lord is upon them that fear him, upon them that hope in his mercy.

Psalm 33:18

The Scripture above reveals a very huge blessing that comes from fearing God. The blessing is that the eye of the Lord will be upon everyone that fears God. This revelation implies several great things amongst which is that when the eye of the Lord is upon an individual, safety is guaranteed. Hebrews 11:6 says that God is the rewarded of those who diligently seek Him. The Bible further says: "The eyes of the Lord are in every place, beholding the evil and the good" (Proverbs 15:3). In other words, the eye of the Lord sees everything-even the plans and moves of the wicked who want to harm you and He knows how to deal with them.

In today's Bible text we are enjoined to fear the Lord above all gods because they are ordinary works of men (Psalm  96:4-5). We should also note that some people have made human beings their gods - probably for fear of what these people could do to them. Psalm 56:11 however, says "In God have l put my trust: l will not be afraid what man can do unto me". Psalm 118:6 says also, "The Lord is on my side, l will not fear: what can man do unto me?" Our Lord Jesus Christ taught us to fear God and not man (Matthew 10:28).

Another demonstration of the fear of the Lord is in verse nine of our text: "O worship the Lord in the beauty of holiness: fear before him, all the earth." There is no true worship of God without holiness. This is where those who overstretch grace miss it. Obedience is synonymous with holiness and the Scripture says to obey is better than sacrifice (1 Samuel 15:22). Therefore, we must watch out for our worship - whether it is premised on the fear of the Lord or mere hypocrisy. As you commit to fear the Lord at all time, His presence will never depart from you, in Jesus' name.

PRAYER POINT 

Father, please put Your fear in me and let me receive the blessings for it in Jesus name.

BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: Isaiah 41-43

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

OPEN HEAVENS DAILY DEVOTIONAL 

DATE: TUESDAY JULY 25TH, 2023.

THEME: FEAR GOD I

MEMORISE: 

The fear of the LORD is the beginning of wisdom: and the knowledge of the holy is understanding. 

Proverbs 9:10

READ:  Psalms 34:1 

1 (A Psalm of David, when he changed his behaviour before Abimelech; who drove him away, and he departed.) I will bless the LORD at all times: his praise shall continually be in my mouth.

2 My soul shall make her boast in the LORD: the humble shall hear thereof, and be glad

3 O magnify the LORD with me, and let us exalt his name together.

4 I sought the LORD, and he heard me, and delivered me from all my fears.

5 They looked unto him, and were lightened: and their faces were not ashamed.

6 This poor man cried, and the LORD heard him, and saved him out of all his troubles.

7 The angel of the LORD encampeth round about them that fear him, and delivereth them.

8 O taste and see that the LORD is good: blessed is the man that trusteth in him.

9 O fear the LORD, ye his saints: for there is no want to them that fear him.

10 The young lions do lack, and suffer hunger: but they that seek the LORD shall not want any good thing.

11 Come, ye children, hearken unto me: I will teach you the fear of the LORD.

MESSAGE

Today's memory verse clearly establishes the need to fear the Lord if we would be wise and gain an understanding of life. The Lord asks: "A son honoureth his father, and a servant his master: if then l be a father, where is mine honour?"  (Malachi 1:6). How do we fear the Lord? Today's Bible reading gives us ideas on how we fear the Most High God. One, we must magnify the Lord for who He is. It takes appreciation of God to fear Him. The Psalmist says:

O, Lord our Lord, how excellent is thy name in all the earth! Who hast set thy glory above the heavens...When l consider thy heavens, the work of thy fingers, the moon and the stars, which thou hast ordained.

Psalm 8:1, 3

Secondly, we must put our total trust in Him. Lack of trust in God may cause us to disobey Him like Adam and Eve did. They repeated what God had told them but the serpent countered it, thereby calling God a liar.  Genesis 3:4-5 says, "And the serpent said unto the woman, Ye shall not surely die: For God doth know that in the day ye eat thereof, then your eyes shall be opened, and ye shall be as gods, knowing good and evil." If Adam and Eve had had the fear of God in them, the devil would not have had his way in their lives. Here we can see that, indeed, the fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom (Proverbs 9:10).

Joseph is a classic example of someone who demonstrated the fear of God. Due to his fear of the Lord, he refused to take advantage of the adulterous offer of his master's wife. He refused to commit sexual immorality and told Potiphar's wife:

There is none greater in this house than l; neither hath he kept back any thing from me but thee, because thou art his wife: how then can l do this great wickedness, and sin against God?

Genesis 39:9

Fear the Lord and keep His commandments. When you do, the type of blessing that later came upon Joseph (Genesis 41:14) will also be your portion.

PRAYER POINT

Father, please help me to fear You indeed and fill me with Your wisdom, in Jesus name.

BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: Isaiah 38-40

AUTHOR: PASTOR E.A. ADEBOYE

HYMN 1: ALL TO JESUS I SURRENDER

2 All to Jesus, I surrender Lord,

I give myself to Thee

Refrain

3All to Jesus I surrender 

Now I feel the sacred flame 

O the joy of full salvation a 

Glory, glory, to Your name  

Refrain

I surrender all, I surrender all 

All to Thee, my blessed Savior 

I surrender all (I surrender all)

THEME: GOD STILL SPEAKS TO HIS PEOPLE II

MEMORISE: 

God, who at sundry times and in divers manners spake in time past unto the fathers by the prophets, 

Hebrews 1:1 

READ: Hebrews 1:1 

1 God, who at sundry times and in divers manners spake in time past unto the fathers by the prophets,

2 Hath in these last days spoken unto us by his Son, whom he hath appointed heir of all things, by whom also he made the worlds;

MESSAGE

Yesterday, we started discussing the reality of God still speaking to His people, even to this present moment. In today's text, we read that though God spoke to His people through His prophets, now He speaks through His Son, Jesus Christ. This is made possible through the Holy Spirit whom Jesus sent to the Church right from the day of Pentecost. He promised:

But the Comforter, which is the Holy Ghost, whom the father will send in my name, he shall teach you all things, and bring all things to your remembrance, whatsoever l have said unto you.

John 14:26

God still speaks to His people; no doubt about that. We must however, pay close attention to the later part of the sentence - "to His people." In other words, God speaks only to His people. Why only His people? It is because it is His people who hearken and act on His words. God has no time to waste talking to those who will not do His bidding. This is why Jesus Christ was fond of speaking to His disciples, whom He knew would abide by His words. He said further:

He that hath my commandments, and keepeth them, he it is that loveth me: and he that loveth me shall be loved of my Father, and l will love him, and will manifest myself to him.

John 14:21

Beloved, there are a lot of blessings for those who hear from God. One of these blessings is that such people would avoid mistakes. For example, the word of God to the people in Cornelius' household was based on Peter's ability to hear from God and his obedience to the instructions given to him (Acts 10). In the same vein, Philip's ability to hear from God took him to the Gazan desert where he gained the soul of the Ethiopian eunuch (Acts 8:26-39).

For example, hearing from God can reveal the type of business you can do to prosper. It can also help you know where to go, live or what type of friends you should keep. If you desire to hear from God directly, you must give your life to Christ and live wholly for Him.

REFLECTION

Have you been hearkening and living according to His words?

BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: Isaiah 35-37

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.

THEME: GOD STILL SPEAKS TO HIS PEOLPE I

MEMORISE: 

In Gibeon the LORD appeared to Solomon in a dream by night: and God said, Ask what I shall give thee. 

1 Kings 3:5 

READ: Genesis 12:1 -4

1 Now the LORD had said unto Abram, Get thee out of thy country, and from thy kindred, and from thy father's house, unto a land that I will shew thee:

2 And I will make of thee a great nation, and I will bless thee, and make thy name great; and thou shalt be a blessing:

3 And I will bless them that bless thee, and curse him that curseth thee: and in thee shall all families of the earth be blessed.

4 So Abram departed, as the LORD had spoken unto him; and Lot went with him: and Abram was seventy and five years old when he departed out of Haran.

MESSAGE

God still speaks to this day, but unfortunately, many people do not hear Him because they are too busy with the affairs of life. The painful thing is that people do not know what they are missing by not listening to their maker. In today's text, we read about Abraham's encounter with the Almighty God.

Now the Lord had said to Abram, Get thee out of thy country, and from thy father's kindred, and from thy father's house, unto a land that l will show thee.

Genesis 12:1

There are some lessons we can learn from this singular encounter that changed Abraham's life, One, God discovered the love and sincerity of Abraham so He revealed Himself to him. This love for God was demonstrated in his positive and prompt response to God's command to leave his father's house. Another lesson is that the dialogue between God and Abraham did not contain commands alone; it was backed by eternal blessings. The Bible says, 'So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God"  (Romans 10:17). Abraham became the father of faith because the word of God penetrated his heart. In the Scripture from where we took the memory verse, we read this of the encounter of Solomon with the Almighty God. During that divine encounter, God gave Solomon a blank cheque and this is a  typical privilege enjoyed by those who have such dialogues with God.

In Gibeon the Lord appeared to Solomon in a dream by night: and God said, Ask what l shall give thee.

1 Kings 3:5

To be genuine children of God, we must surrender completely to all His commandments. This is where many people often miss it - they are not ready to obey God fully. They want freedom from His commandments; they want to take over the affairs of life without any recourse to God Almighty. I encourage you to give your life to Jesus Christ today. Seek His face without ceasing - not just what He has to give and you will receive great revelations from Him that will transform your life for good.

PRAYER POINT

Father, please speak to me today, and always.

BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: Isaiah 32-34
