Open Heavens Daily Devotional by Pastor E.A. Adeboye

OPEN HEAVENS DAILY DEVOTIONAL

DATE: WEDNESDAY APRIL 24TH, 2024.

THEME: ELDER, BE A GOOD EXAMPLE 

MEMORISE: 

In all things shewing thyself a pattern of good works: in doctrine shewing uncorruptness, gravity, sincerity.         

Titus 2:7

READ: Titus 2:1-8 

1 But speak thou the things which become sound doctrine:

2 That the aged men be sober, grave, temperate, sound in faith, in charity, in patience.

3 The aged women likewise, that they be in behaviour as becometh holiness, not false accusers, not given to much wine, teachers of good things;

4 That they may teach the young women to be sober, to love their husbands, to love their children,

5 To be discreet, chaste, keepers at home, good, obedient to their own husbands, that the word of God be not blasphemed.

6Young men likewise exhort to be sober minded.

7 In all things shewing thyself a pattern of good works: in doctrine shewing uncorruptness, gravity, sincerity,

8 Sound speech, that cannot be condemned; that he that is of the contrary part may be ashamed, having no evil thing to say of you.

MESSAGE

Our Bible reading for today says that elders should behave right in order to influence the younger ones to also behave right – this is how it should be. Beyond words, the younger generation learns more by observing. Besides hearing the things you say, they can also see the things you do. If you want them to behave rightly, let them see you do what you are asking them to do consistently first. When you lie to get a favor for your child in school, and then turn around to tell that child not to lie to you, you are deceiving yourself. If they hardly see you pray and read your Bible, you can't turn around and ask them to read their Bibles. You should be bold to say to the younger ones like Apostle Paul said: Those things, which ye have both learned, and received, and heard, and seen in me, do: and the God of peace shall be with you. Philippians 4:9 Our memory verse for today says that you must show yourself as a pattern of good works.

Many elderly people usually say that in order to catch the youths, they need to dress like youths and use their slangs. What they don't know is that when they start looking and talking like them, they are endorsing their lifestyle and some of their negative actions. They can't change them that way, rather, they will only reinforce their negative behavior. Instead, they should be a standard for the youths to follow. More often than not, the youths know the truth and when they do the wrong things, they actually expect the elders to correct them. Now, imagine their confusion when they see their elders doing the same things they want to be corrected about. In Yorubaland, where I come from, we call elderly people who behave childishly agbaya', meaning' shameless old fellow'.

God is counting on elders to guide the younger ones on how to behave for them to have a better tomorrow. God also expects the youths to submit to their elders in humility. Finally, Titus 2:2 says that elders should be sober, brave, temperate, sound in faith, in charity and in patience. As an elder, let this be your watchword. Don't be an agbaya.

ACTION POINT

Ensure you act the same way you want your children and the young people around you to.

BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: 2 Kings 19-21

AUTHOR: PASTOR E.A. ADEBOYE

HYMN 20:  STAND UP, STAND UP FOR JESUS

Stand up, stand up for Jesus! ye soldiers of the cross;Lift high His royal banner, it must not suffer loss:lFrom vict’ry unto vict’ry, His army shall He lead,Till every foe is vanquished, and Christ is Lord indeed.

Stand up, stand up for Jesus! The trumpet call obey:Forth to the mighty conflict, in this His glorious day;Ye that are men now serve Him against unnumbered foes;Let courage rise with danger, and strength to strength oppose.

Stand up, stand up for Jesus! Stand in His strength alone,The arm of flesh will fail you, ye dare not trust your own;Put on the gospel armor, and watching unto prayer,Where calls the voice of duty, be never wanting there.

Stand up, stand up for Jesus! the strife will not be long;This day the noise of battle, the next the victor’s song;To him that overcometh a crown of life shall be;lHe with the King of glory shall reign eternally.

THEME: WHEN GOD STEPS IN

MEMORISE: 

He brought me up also out of an horrible pit, out of the miry clay, and set my feet upon a rock, and established my goings.      

Psalm 40:2

READ: Psalms 119:103-105 

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

There are times we go in the wrong direction due to our human nature. For example, we had quite a good bargain when we purchased the first four acres of land that has now expanded to become Redemption City. As time went by, we kept buying more land even though the price was increasing. After we had bought about a thousand acres, some people spoke to me and said, "Why are you buying lands in this bush? There are other things to spend money on," and I listened to them. However, one night, God said to me, "Son, who called you? These people or Myself? Who promised you a city instead of a boy's quarters?" I woke up and made up my mind to keep buying more land, but by then, what used to be N1,000 had gone up to N50,000. Today, we have over 40,000 hectares, and we are still buying more. If you are moving in the opposite direction of God's will for your life, God will step in today and bring you back to the right path, in Jesus' name.

A fellow might have done something terrible in the past which made it impossible for him or her to reach some goals. An individual can commit a crime and end up with a life sentence. Even though that fellow's case may seem hopeless, God can step in and turn things around.

In Genesis 49:1-7, Jacob, on his deathbed, cursed Levi because of some sins from his past, but God stepped in and gave Levi an opportunity to be restored. In Exodus 32:25-26, Moses returned from the mountain and found out that the children of Israel were dancing naked before an idol. He cried out. Who is on the side of the Lord? Let him come to me." Everyone belonging to the tribe of Levi crossed over to Moses and became his army. God looked down from heaven and said, "That curse on you is cancelled!" Levi missed it earlier, but he got on God's side and was restored.

God can step in to give you hope again. I, however, have some questions for you: are you on the Lord's side? Do you do His will? Are you committed to serving Him alone? If you answered 'yes' to these questions, God will step in and bring you back to the path of fulfilling your destiny, in Jesus' name.

PRAYER POINT

Father, I am on your side. Please step into my situation and let me fulfil Your plans for my life.

BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: 2 Kings 17-18.

HYMN 14: O WHAT A WONDERFUL WONDERFUL DAY

Oh What A Wonderful Wonderful Day

Day I Will Never Forget

After I’d Wandered In Darkness Away

Jesus My Saviour I Met

Oh What A Tender Compassionate Friend

He Met The Need Of My Heart

Shadows Dispelling With Joy I Am Telling

He Made All The Darkness Depart

Chorus

Heaven Came Down And Glory Filled My Soul

When At The Cross The Saviour Made Me Whole

My Sins Were Washed Away

And My Night Was Turned To Day

Heaven Came Down And Glory Filled My Soul

2 Born Of The Spirit With Life From Above

Into God’s Family Divine

Justified Fully Thru Calvary’s Love

Oh What A Standing Is Mine

And The Transaction So Quickly Was Made

When As A Sinner I Came

Took Of The Offer Of Grace

He Did Proffer He Saved Me

Oh Praise His Dear Name

3 Now I’ve A Hope That Will Surely Endure

After The Passing Of Time

I Have A Future In Heaven For Sure

There In Those Mansions Sublime

And It’s Because Of That Wonderful Day

When At The Cross I Believed

Riches Eternal And Blessings Supernal

From His Precious Hand I Received

DATE: MONDAY APRIL 22ND, 2024.

THEME: IF YOU MISSED YOUR FLOOD

MEMORISE: 

They shall still bring forth fruit in old age; they shall be fat and flourishing; 

Psalm 92:14

READ: Joel 2:25-27 

25 And I will restore to you the years that the locust hath eaten, the cankerworm, and the caterpiller, and the palmerworm, my great army which I sent among you.

26 And ye shall eat in plenty, and be satisfied, and praise the name of the LORD your God, that hath dealt wondrously with you: and my people shall never be ashamed.

27 And ye shall know that I am in the midst of Israel, and that I am the LORD your God, and none else: and my people shall never be ashamed.

MESSAGE

Two days ago, I discussed the prime of a man, the time when things are at their brightest, and I said that it is possible for someone to miss his flood. What should a fellow do if he or she has missed his or her flood? If a person has not made good use of his or her flood period, is there any way out before the night falls? If God is keenly interested in such a fellow, He will assist him or her to do one or two things that will turn the situation around.

Esau missed his flood when he sold his birthright. When the time came to get the generational blessing, he missed that one too. Genesis 27:34 says that He wept bitterly. Esau repented and cried to his father, saying, "Can't I get just a leftover blessing?" God saw that his repentance was genuine and that his request for just a little bit of blessing was a passionate cry. As God is rich in mercy, He gave him the grace to recover some of the lost grounds. After Esau left his father, he made up his mind to make the best of the little blessing he got from him and prove everybody wrong. By the time we get to Genesis 32:3-7, Jacob sent some animals as gifts through some servants to tell Esau that he was coming home. Those people returned to tell Jacob that Esau was Coming with 400 bodyguards to meet him, and the Bible recorded that Jacob trembled with fear. The one who got the original blessing trembled when the one who got the leftover approached him. By the time we get to Genesis 33:1-9, when they finally met, Esau asked Jacob why he sent all those animals and told him that he already had enough. Esau was so blessed that he asked Jacob to keep his possessions. He was indirectly saying, "I might have missed my flood, but as long as I am still breathing, I can still work my way to the top."

You might have also missed your flood, but as long as you are still breathing, it is not too late. You can work your way to the top if you are determined to do so with God's help.

Don't give up on yourself. There are people who became successful in their old age. They may be few, but you can be one of the few. What you need is an undying determination and the grace of God.

PRAYER POINT

Father, l am determined to recover the grounds I have lost. Please give me the grace to do so, in Jesus’ name.

BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: 2 Kings 14-16

AUTHOR: PASTOR E.A. ADEBOYE

HYMN 5: BLESSED ASSURANCE

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.

Refrain:

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.

Perfect submission, perfect delight,

Visions of rapture now burst on my sight;

Angels, descending, bring from above

Echoes of mercy, whispers of love.

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.
