Open Heavens Daily Devotional by Pastor E.A. Adeboye

OPEN HEAVENS DAILY DEVOTIONAL 


DATE: WEDNESDAY AUGUST 16TH, 2023.


THEME: FROM DARKNESS TO LIGHT II


MEMORISE: 

But the path of the just is as the shining light, that shineth more and more unto the perfect day. 

Proverbs 4:18


READ: Isaiah 58:8 -14


8 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.


9 Then shalt thou call, and the LORD shall answer; thou shalt cry, and he shall say, Here I am. If thou take away from the midst of thee the yoke, the putting forth of the finger, and speaking vanity;


10 And if thou draw out thy soul to the hungry, and satisfy the afflicted soul; then shall thy light rise in obscurity, and thy darkness be as the noonday:


11 And the LORD shall guide thee continually, and satisfy thy soul in drought, and make fat thy bones: and thou shalt be like a watered garden, and like a spring of water, whose waters fail not.


12 And they that shall be of thee shall build the old waste places: thou shalt raise up the foundations of many generations; and thou shalt be called, The repairer of the breach, The restorer of paths to dwell in.


13 If thou turn away thy foot from the sabbath, from doing thy pleasure on my holy day; and call the sabbath a delight, the holy of the LORD, honourable; and shalt honour him, not doing thine own ways, nor finding thine own pleasure, nor speaking thine own words:


14 Then shalt thou delight thyself in the LORD; and I will cause thee to ride upon the high places of the earth, and feed thee with the heritage of Jacob thy father: for the mouth of the LORD hath spoken it.


MESSAGE


Another symptom of darkness is poverty. Bartimaeus was not just blind, he was also poor. The Bible recorded that he was a blind beggar. Any situation that involves begging to eat is called poverty. The Almighty God's plan is not for you to be a beggar, but rather that you would prosper. For several years, the enemy kept the Church in darkness and pastors began to equate holiness with poverty. The devil knows that you can spread the gospel faster if you have money. I don't know about you, but in the name of Jesus Christ, l am going to prosper because light stands for prosperity.


Darkness works to make you poor, but it is the duty of the Light to make you rich. 2 Corinthians 8-9 says clearly:


For ye know the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, that, though he was rich, yet for your sakes he became poor, that ye through his poverty might be rich.


He became poor that you, through His poverty, might become rich. If you are truly a child of God, carrying the Light of the Almighty within you, l have a good news for you: all those who have been saying that you are going to die poor shall be disappointed 3 John 2 says He wishes above all things that you would prosper and be in health, even as your soul prospers. If God wishes that you prosper as long as your soul is prospering, it doesn't matter what the devil may be planning - you will be prosperous.


There was a very wealthy man who quarreled with his wife. She said to him. "I will see to it that you trek in this Lagos". This man was so wealthy that he had more than 14 cars, so he just laughed the threat off. However, by the day this man came to our Church for the first time, he had only one car left and 50 kobo with him. He wanted to buy food with the money but knew that if he did, he would end up walking home like his wife said, so he decided to just buy fuel, when he came to the Light, the tide turned in his favour. The day he gave his testimony, he was dedicating two new houses. God can take you from abject poverty to affluence if you give your life to Him and live holy.


PRAYER POINT:


Father, please let Your lights send the darkness of poverty far away from me, in Jesus' name.


BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: Jeremiah 40- 43


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.

Open Heavens Daily Devotional by Pastor E.A. Adeboye

OPEN HEAVENS DAILY DEVOTIONAL 


DATE: TUESDAY. AUGUST 15TH, 2023.


THEME: FROM DARKNESS TO LIGHT


MEMORISE: 

As long as I am in the world, I am the light of the world. 

John 9:5 


READ: 1 John 1:5 -10


5 This then is the message which we have heard of him, and declare unto you, that God is light, and in him is no darkness at all.


6 If we say that we have fellowship with him, and walk in darkness, we lie, and do not the truth:


7 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 cleanseth us from all sin.


8 If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us.


9 If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.


10 If we say that we have not sinned, we make him a liar, and his word is not in us.


MESSAGE


There are certain things in life that are difficult to define. One of such things is light. If someone asks you, "What is light?", you may simply say it is the opposite of darkness. However, to understand light you Need to understand what darkness stands for.


Our case study for this series will be Bartimaeus- a blind man who met Jesus and the darkness in his life ended. When you look at Mark 10:46-52, you will see some of the things that darkness portrays and thus identity certain things hidden in light. For example, darkness equals sickness. If darkness signifies sickness, then light signifies healing which is embedded in Jesus Christ the Light of the world (Exodus 15:26). When you have a relationship with Jesus, sickness cannot continue to stay in your life.


It is no news that darkness and the devil go hand in hand. When you look at Luke 13:11-17, you will see clearly that Jesus Christ called the spirit of infirmity an agent of the devil. Sickness and disease therefore have their origin in darkness. However, the light of God can see forces of darkness and deal with them completely.


There was a brother who was going to the USA for further studies and he threw a party before his departure. In the middle of this party, an enemy came and planted something evil into his life. From the day he arrived in the USA, he began to feel a pain in his stomach. All kinds of tests were conducted to no avail, yet the pain intensified. He struggled for six years, taking all manner of drugs until he finished his studies. When he returned to Nigeria, he hears that we were having a programme at Ibadan and decided to travel all the way from Zaria. The devil did everything to stop him but he finally made it on the last day of the programme. During the last message, he sat down and as the word of God was coming forth, the light of God hit him and suddenly, he began to shout, "I am free" because the pain of more than six years had disappeared. I prophesy to you: It doesn't matter how long you have been carrying that sickness or disease; my Daddy will chase it out today, in the mighty name of Jesus.


PRAYER POINT 


Father, please chase out every form of darkness in my life now, in Jesus name.


BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: Jeremiah 37-39


AUTHOR: PASTOR E.A. ADEBOYE


HYMN 1: ALL TO JESUS I SURRENDER


1 All to Jesus, I surrender 


All to Thee I freely give

You In Your presence daily live

All to Thee, my blessed Savior

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) 


I surrender all, I surrender all 


All to Thee, my blessed Savior 


I surrender all (all to Thee, my blessed)

THEME: JESUS OUR TEACHER


MEMORISE:  Whosoever transgresseth, and abideth not in the doctrine of Christ, hath not God. He that abideth in the doctrine of Christ, he hath both the Father and the Son. 2 John 1:9


READ: Matthew 7:24 -28


24 Therefore whosoever heareth these sayings of mine, and doeth them, I will liken him unto a wise man, which built his house upon a rock:


25 And the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that house; and it fell not: for it was founded upon a rock.


26 And every one that heareth these sayings of mine, and doeth them not, shall be likened unto a foolish man, which built his house upon the sand:


27 And the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that house; and it fell: and great was the fall of it.


28 And it came to pass, when Jesus had ended these sayings, the people were astonished at his doctrine:


MESSAGE


John 3:1-2 tells us clearly that Jesus was a teacher. It may amaze you that throughout His ministry on earth, nobody ever palled Him Evangelist or Prophet or Pastor; they kept calling Him 'Teacher'. Everywhere Jesus went, He went teaching, including by the seaside (Mark 2:13).


Jesus is a teacher and likes to relate with us as such, this is good news because the teacher is held responsible for the success or failure of a student. If the teacher can then prove that the student failed because he or she refused to obey instructions, then the teacher is relieved of that responsibility. You see this clearly when Jesus gave His report at the end of His time on earth in John 17:12. He said: "While l was with them in the world, l kept them in thy name: those that thou gravest me l have kept, and none of them is lost, but the son of perdition; that the scripture might be fulfilled."


Thus if you listen to all Jesus' instructions and obey Him, He will definitely help you make it to heaven at the end of time.


After Jesu resurrected from the dead, His role advanced from teacher to Teacher of teachers. This is why, in John 20:16, Mary called Him 'Rabboni' a special title used to honour great teachers. For those of us who are teachers of the gospel, James 3:1 says that we would receive greater condemnations on the last day if our works are found wanting. Of course, this is because such people are responsible for the souls of men that the Almighty God allocates to them. The good news however, is that we have a Teacher who will teach us how to,pass this great test on the last day. He is always there to teach you how to succeed in whatever assignment He commits into your hands. That is why l have always told my children not to get do busy with ministry that they lose connection with the Teacher of teachers. Believe me honestly, without Him, you cannot do ministry right. You cannot be snatching souls from the devil's kingdom and expect him to be soft on you. He will deploy many tactics to bring you down, but if you remain connected to the Teacher of teachers, you will win in the end.


PRAYER POINT 


Teacher of Teachers, please teach me what to do to make it to heaven at the end.


BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: Jeremiah 33-36


AUTHOR: PASTOR E. A ADEBOYE


HYMN 9: IMMORTAL, INVISIBLE GOD ONLY WISE


1 Immortal, invisible, God only wise,


in light inaccessible hid from our eyes,


most blessed, most glorious, the Ancient of Days,


almighty, victorious, thy great name we praise.


2 Unresting, unhasting, and silent as light,


nor wanting, nor wasting, thou rulest in might;


thy justice like mountains high soaring above


thy clouds, which are fountains of goodness and love.


3 To all life thou givest, to both great and small;


in all life thou livest, the true life of all;


we blossom and flourish as leaves on the tree,


and wither and perish but naught changeth thee.


4 Great Father of glory, pure Father of light,


thine angels adore thee, all veiling their sight;


all praise we would render, O help us to see


'tis only the splendor of light hideth thee.


Worship and Rejoice, 2003
