Open Heavens Daily Devotional by Pastor E.A. Adeboye

OPEN HEAVENS DAILY DEVOTIONAL 


DATE: WEDNESDAY OCTOBER 4TH, 2023.


TOPIC: BENEFITS OF RIGHTEOUSNESS II


MEMORISE:


The eyes of the LORD are upon the righteous, and his ears are open unto their cry.

Psalm 34:15


READ:

PSALM 34:7-22


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.


12 What man is he that desireth life, and loveth many days, that he may see good?


13 Keep thy tongue from evil, and thy lips from speaking guile.


14 Depart from evil, and do good; seek peace, and pursue it.


15 The eyes of the LORD are upon the righteous, and his ears are open unto their cry.


16 The face of the LORD is against them that do evil, to cut off the remembrance of them from the earth.


17 The righteous cry, and the LORD heareth, and delivereth them out of all their troubles.


18 The LORD is nigh unto them that are of a broken heart; and saveth such as be of a contrite spirit.


19 Many are the afflictions of the righteous: but the LORD delivereth him out of them all.


20 He keepeth all his bones: not one of them is broken.


21 Evil shall slay the wicked: and they that hate the righteous shall be desolate.


22 The LORD redeemeth the soul of his servants: and none of them that trust in him shall be desolate.


MESSAGE:


Another major benefit of righteousness is that when evil is about to come for you, God takes you out of its way and substitutes you with an unbeliever. This is clearly stated in Proverbs 11:8: "The righteous is delivered out of trouble, and the wicked cometh in his stead." 


This is called the Law of Substitution. When trouble wants to swallow the righteous, God will stop it and may put a substitute in his or her stead. There are many instances like this in Scripture. The people who threw Shadrack, Meshack and Abednego into the fire are the ones who died instead of the Hebrew boys who were saved by the Lord, because the furnace had to be fed (Daniel 3). The people who threw Daniel into the den of lions were also the ones the lions ate (Daniel 6).


Many years ago, a lady came to me for prayers. She said she had a dream that her husband, who was on a trip, would be brought back in a casket. I asked her if her husband was born again, and she said yes. We prayed about the dream and she left. After some time, I saw an obituary in the newspaper, and the fellow there had the same surname as this sister. The following Sunday in Church, I asked her about the obituary wondering if it was her husband. She responded saying it was not her husband, but a relative of his. Death was coming for a believer; God revealed it to us so we could pray and when we did, He delivered the righteous from death, while an unbeliever became the substitute. There is no life insurance policy as good as living holy.


When you live a righteous life, you go through life with boldness, knowing that tomorrow will be alright. The Bible says in Proverbs 28:1: "The wicked flee when no man pursueth: but the righteous are bold as a lion."


If you believe that the policemen around you carrying revolvers are your protectors, wait until they come across people carrying AK47s, then you will discover that you are on your own. The righteous are as bold as a lion because they know that they have God on their side. I want to challenge you to make a commitment today. I want you to go to the Almighty God and tell Him you are committing to a life of righteousness.


PRAYER POINT:


Father, I am committing to You to be pure and holy from now on.


BIBLE IN ONE YEAR:

MATTHEW 7-9


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 endless praise,

Let them flow in endless 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.

Open Heavens Daily Devotional by Pastor E.A. Adeboye

OPEN HEAVENS DAILY DEVOTIONAL


DATE: TUESDAY OCTOBER 3RD, 2023.


THEME: BENEFITS OF RIGHTEOUSNESS I


MEMORISE:


I have been young, and now am old; yet have I not seen the righteous forsaken, nor his seed begging bread.

Psalm 37:25 


READ:

Deuteronomy 28:1-14


1 And it shall come to pass, if thou shalt hearken diligently unto the voice of the LORD thy God, to observe and to do all his commandments which I command thee this day, that the LORD thy God will set thee on high above all nations of the earth:


2 And all these blessings shall come on thee, and overtake thee, if thou shalt hearken unto the voice of the LORD thy God.


3 Blessed shalt thou be in the city, and blessed shalt thou be in the field.


4 Blessed shall be the fruit of thy body, and the fruit of thy ground, and the fruit of thy cattle, the increase of thy kine, and the flocks of thy sheep.


5 Blessed shall be thy basket and thy store.


6 Blessed shalt thou be when thou comest in, and blessed shalt thou be when thou goest out.


7 The LORD shall cause thine enemies that rise up against thee to be smitten before thy face: they shall come out against thee one way, and flee before thee seven ways.


8 The LORD shall command the blessing upon thee in thy storehouses, and in all that thou settest thine hand unto; and he shall bless thee in the land which the LORD thy God giveth thee.


9 The LORD shall establish thee an holy people unto himself, as he hath sworn unto thee, if thou shalt keep the commandments of the LORD thy God, and walk in his ways.


10 And all people of the earth shall see that thou art called by the name of the LORD; and they shall be afraid of thee.


11 And the LORD shall make thee plenteous in goods, in the fruit of thy body, and in the fruit of thy cattle, and in the fruit of thy ground, in the land which the LORD sware unto thy fathers to give thee.


12 The LORD shall open unto thee his good treasure, the heaven to give the rain unto thy land in his season, and to bless all the work of thine hand: and thou shalt lend unto many nations, and thou shalt not borrow.


13 And the LORD shall make thee the head, and not the tail; and thou shalt be above only, and thou shalt not be beneath; if that thou hearken unto the commandments of the LORD thy God, which I command thee this day, to observe and to do them:


14 And thou shalt not go aside from any of the words which I command thee this day, to the right hand, or to the left, to go after other gods to serve them.


MESSAGE:


Isaiah 3:10 says it shall be well with the righteous because there are certain guaranteed blessings that righteous people enjoy. One of them is in Psalm 34:17: "The righteous cry, and the LORD heareth, and delivereth them out of their troubles".


When you are living a life of holiness, anytime you cry to God, He would answer you speedily. This is as opposed to Isaiah 59:1-2, which says that it's people's sins that prevent God from hearing them. David said clearly in Psalm 66:18: "If I regard iniquity in my heart, the Lord will not hear me". If you really want God to start hearing your prayers, then you must begin to live holy henceforth.


The blessings attached to living holy are numerous, as seen in today's Bible text and memory verse. The children of righteous people are God's responsibility; He takes care of their needs Himself. King David shared his observation about this in today's memory verse.


The children of the righteous don't have to depend on anybody to survive - God Himself makes sure that they don't lack anything. This means that the best legacy and inheritance you can leave for your children is a holy lifestyle. This is so because God will ensure that they never lack. A classic illustration is in 1 Kings 11:11-12. David was a man after God's heart, and God preserved his son - Solomon because of this.


It is better, however, to teach your children to live holy themselves even when you have gone to be with the Lord, so that their own children too will enjoy the preservation of the Lord.


Thou hast loved righteousness, and hated iniquity; therefore God, even thy God, hath anointed thee with the oil of gladness above thy fellows.

Hebrews 1:9


Pursue righteousness and hate iniquity, so that you would see the manifestation of God's glory upon your life and all that concerns you.


ACTION POINT:


Make holiness your lifestyle.


BIBLE IN ONE YEAR:

Matthew 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 endless praise,

Let them flow in endless 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.
