Open Heavens Daily Devotional by Pastor E.A. Adeboye

OPEN HEAVENS DAILY DEVOTIONAL

DATE: WEDNESDAY 21ST, FEBRUARY 2024.

THEME: THE RIGHT HAND OF GOD

MEMORISE: 

According to thy name, O God, so is thy praise unto the ends of the earth: thy right hand is full of righteousness.

Psalm 48:10

READ: Psalm 89:8-13

89:8 O LORD God of hosts, who is a strong LORD like unto thee? or to thy faithfulness round about thee?

89:9 Thou rulest the raging of the sea: when the waves thereof arise, thou stillest them.

89:10 Thou hast broken Rahab in pieces, as one that is slain; thou hast scattered thine enemies with thy strong arm.

89:11 The heavens are thine, the earth also is thine: as for the world and the fulness thereof, thou hast founded them.

89:12 The north and the south thou hast created them: Tabor and Hermon shall rejoice in thy name.

89:13 Thou hast a mighty arm: strong is thy hand, and high is thy right hand.

MESSAGE:

I have come to understand that the difference between the right and the left hand is more than their positioning on our bodies. For example, in Matthew 5:30 when Jesus was talking about everything you must do to make sure you don't miss heaven, He said, "If thy right hand offend thee." He could easily have said, "If thy hand," but He obviously emphasised the right hand because of its importance.

In Genesis 48:8-20 when Jacob was to bless Joseph's two sons, he deliberately placed his right hand on the younger son and the left on the older son. As a result of this, the younger son became more blessed than his elder brother (Deuteronomy 33:17).

Now, if the right hand of a man is that powerful, then you can imagine how powerful God's right hand is since we were made in His image (Genesis 1:26).

Psalm 17:7 says that God saves by His right hand. In other words, when a sinner is snatched from the jaws of hell, it is God's right hand at work. This is why you must pray for God to raise His right hand on behalf of all your family members that are not saved.

Furthermore, Psalm 139:10 says that He leads by His right hand. Isaiah 41:10 says that God also upholds with His right hand. After He has saved you and led you with His right hand, He will also keep you standing with the same right hand.

In Exodus 15:6, the Bible says that His right hand is not just powerful, but also glorious in power. This tells us that God fights with His right hand. In Exodus 15:11-12, the Bible says that His right hand swallowed the enemy. In Mark 14:62, the Bible tells us that the right hand of God is the right hand of power. The right hand of God is also where you will find joy and everlasting pleasures (Psalm 16:11).

Beloved, you should note, however, that only the redeemed can be at the right hand of God (Matthew 25:34). If you are not yet born again, you better surrender your life to Christ now because those who are at God's left hand suffer greatly. They are the ones who weep and gnash their teeth because of the evils they experience. Give your life to Christ today and get on the right-hand side of God.

PRAYER POINT

Father, please raise Your right hand on my behalf and let every enemy fighting against me be destroyed, in Jesus' name.

BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: DEUTERONOMY 1-2

AUTHOR: PASTOR E.A. ADEBOYE

HYMN 1: ALL HAIL THE POWER JESUS' NAME 

1 All hail the pow’r of Jesus’ name!

  Let angels prostrate fall,

  Let angels prostrate fall;

Bring forth the royal diadem,

And crown Him, crown Him,

  crown Him, crown Him;

  And crown Him Lord of all!

2 Ye chosen seed of Israel’s race,

  Ye ransomed from the fall,

  Ye ransomed from the fall,

Hail Him who saves you by His grace,

3 Sinners, whose love can ne’er forget

  The wormwood and the gall,

  The wormwood and the gall,

Go, spread your trophies at His feet,

4 Let every kindred, every tribe,

  On this terrestrial ball,

  On this terrestrial ball,

To Him all majesty ascribe,

5 O that with yonder sacred throng

  We at His feet may fall,

  We at His feet may fall!

We’ll join the everlasting song

OPEN HEAVENS DAILY DEVOTIONAL

DATE: TUESDAY FEBRUARY 20TH, 2024.

THEME: WHAT DID GOD SAY?

MEMORISE: 

I will stand upon my watch, and set me upon the tower, and will watch to see what he will say unto me, and what I shall answer when | am reproved.

Habakkuk 2:1

READ: Psalms 119:101-105

101  I have refrained my feet from every evil way, that I might keep thy word.

102 I have not departed from thy judgments: for thou hast taught me.

103 How sweet are thy words unto my taste! yea, sweeter than honey to my mouth!

104 Through thy precepts I get understanding: therefore I hate every false way.

105 Thy word is a lamp unto my feet, and a light unto my path.

MESSAGE

To live and survive on this earth, you need more than food. Jesus said in Matthew 4:4 that you need every single word that proceeds out of God's mouth. This implies that you must be very particular about hearing from God regularly. Many people think that prayer is a one-way traffic, that is, they go to God, tell Him all their problems, and that is all. No! The most important part of

prayer is hearing what God has to say concerning situations. It is the entrance of His word that brings light (Psalm 119:130).

Many times, when I face a difficult situation, and I cry to God for help and he does not say anything back to me, I say, "I'm in trouble," and I continue crying unto Him. When at last I hear from Him, then I know that the problem is over. Even if what I hear is a rebuke, the fact that He is answering at all shows that He has heard me and that something is going to happen.

The Bible recorded in 1 Samuel 30:1-18 how David and his men had lost their family members and possessions to the Amalekites and how they recovered all after seeking guidance from God. It was a very dark moment for them before God spoke to them. The men had cried themselves sore and were so dejected that they began to contemplate killing David. Thankfully, David acted wisely and sought the face of God on what to do, and when they acted on God's counsel, they recovered all.

In the memory verse for today, Habakkuk said that he will stand upon his watch to see what God's response to him will be. Beloved, what is God saying about the prayer requests you have put before Him? What is God saying about your family, your future, and your career? If you are a child of God, you should note that God also wants to speak to you concerning your situation. Unfortunately, many believers fail to wait on Him to hear what He has to say to them.

In Jeremiah 33:3, God said, "Call on me and I will answer."

He didn't say, may answer" or "I will consider answering." He said, "I WILL answer." So, when you go to Him in prayers, tell Him, "Lord, I will not rest until you have answered me."

KEY POINT

The most important part of prayer is hearing what God has to say concerning situations.

BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: Numbers 33-36

AUTHOR: PASTOR E.A. ADEBOYE

HYMN 7: I AM THINE O LORD

1 I am Thine, O Lord, I have heard Thy voice,

And it told Thy love to me;

But I long to rise in the arms of faith,

And be closer drawn to Thee.

Refrain:

Draw me nearer, nearer, blessed Lord,

To the cross where Thou hast died;

Draw me nearer, nearer, nearer, blessed Lord,

To Thy precious, bleeding side.

2 Consecrate me now to Thy service, Lord,

By the pow’r of grace divine;

Let my soul look up with a steadfast hope,

And my will be lost in Thine.

3 O the pure delight of a single hour

That before Thy throne I spend,

When I kneel in prayer, and with Thee, my God,

I commune as friend with friend!

4 There are depths of love that I yet may know

Ere Thee face to face I see;

There are heights of joy that I yet may reach

Ere I, rest in peace with Thee.
