DATE:  TUESDAY DECEMBER 17TH 2024

THEME:  GOD'S PROMISES

MEMORISE:  

There failed not ought of any good thing which the Lord had spoken unto the house of Israel; all came to pass.   

Joshua 21:45

READ:  Hebrews 6:10-15 

10 For God is not unrighteous to forget your work and labour of love, which ye have shewed toward his name, in that ye have ministered to the saints, and do minister.

11 And we desire that every one of you do shew the same diligence to the full assurance of hope unto the end:

12 That ye be not slothful, but followers of them who through faith and patience inherit the promises.

13 For when God made promise to Abraham, because he could swear by no greater, he sware by himself,

14 Saying, Surely blessing I will bless thee, and multiplying I will multiply thee.

15 And so, after he had patiently endured, he obtained the promise.

MESSAGE

You can get a lot of strength from God's promises Numbers 23:19 says that God is not like the people who make promises that they do not keep. When God makes you a promise, He is going to fulfil it.

It may take a while, but every promise you have received from God will come to pass because 2 Corinthians 1:20 says that His promises are 'yea and amen’. One of His promises Is that you will always overcome evil attacks because Isaiah 54:17 says clearly that no weapon that is fashioned against you will prosper. This is the promise of the Almighty God, and it can never fail.

Deuteronomy 28:7 says that when enemies come against you, they will be smitten before your face. In other words, you are not the one who will do the fighting; you will just watch them being defeated before your face. When they come against you in one direction, they will scatter in seven different directions (Deuteronomy 28:7).

Another promise is in Deuteronomy 28:13:

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:

From the Scripture above, it is evident that you will always emerge at the top, no matter what happens to you. When I was young, I used to play with house cats. | would hold a cat's four legs, put its back on the floor, and remove my hands. As soon as I removed my hands, the cat would be back on its feet in the twinkling of an eye. This affirms the saying of African elders: "The back of the cat does not touch the ground." This is another way of saying that no matter what happens to you, you will not lose.

God's promise to you is that no matter what happens, you will always be the head and not the tail; you will be above, and never beneath. You must note, however, that you have a part to play for God's promises to be fulfilled in your life.

Beloved, if there is a promise that you are trying to activate in your life, find out the conditions attached to it in the scriptures, do your part, and you will see that promise come to pass in your life at the right time.

KEY POINT

God's promises are yea and amen.

BIBLE IN ONE YEAR:  Hebrews 5-8

AUTHOR: PASTOR E. A. ADEBOYE

HYMN 21: STANDING ON THE PROMISES OF GOD

1.  Standing on the promises of Christ my King,

Through eternal ages let His praises ring,

Glory in the highest, I will shout and sing,

  Standing on the promises of God.

Chorus

Standing, standing,

Standing on the promises of God my Savior;

Standing, standing,

I’m standing on the promises of God.

2.  Standing on the promises that cannot fail,

When the howling storms of doubt and fear assail,

By the living Word of God I shall prevail,

Standing on the promises of God.

3.  Standing on the promises I now can see

Perfect, present cleansing in the blood for me;

Standing in the liberty where Christ makes free,

Standing on the promises of God.

4.  Standing on the promises of Christ the Lord,

Bound to Him eternally by love’s strong cord,

Overcoming daily with the Spirit’s sword,

Standing on the promises of God.

5.  Standing on the promises I shall not fall,

List’ning every moment to the Spirit’s call.

Resting in my Savior as my All in all,

Standing on the promises of God.

Open Heavens Daily Devotional by Pastor E.A. Adeboye

 OPEN HEAVENS DAILY DEVOTIONAL

DATE: MONDAY DECEMBER 16TH 2024

THEME: DIVINE LOVE

MEMORISE:

For the mountains shall depart, and the hills be removed; but my kindness shall not depart from thee, neither shall the covenant of my peace be removed, saith the Lord that hath mercy on thee. Isaiah 54:10

READ: JEREMIAH 31:3-6

3 The LORD hath appeared of old unto me, saying, Yea, I have loved thee with an everlasting love: therefore with loving kindness have I drawn thee.

4 Again I will build thee, and thou shalt be built, O virgin of Israel: thou shalt again be adorned with thy tabrets, and shalt go forth in the dances of them that make merry.

5 Thou shalt yet plant vines upon the mountains of Samaria: the planters shall plant, and shall eat them as common things.

6 For there shall be a day, that the watchmen upon the mount Ephraim shall cry, Arise ye, and let us go up to Zion unto the LORD our God.

MESSAGE:

The love of Christ avails us of so many benefits. For example, Roman 8:37 says:

"Nay, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him that loved us."

'More than conquerors' simply means winning without fighting. God loves you, and He will fight for you. Romans 8:31 says that if God be for us, who can be against us? This means that no one can overcome you.

One of the many things that God's love does for you is that it gives you victories for battles you are not even aware of. Many years ago, when I was a lecturer at the University of Ilorin, I was resting on the couch in the living room of my apartment while waiting to leave for the lecture hall. I closed my eyes because I didn't want to be disturbed, and all of a sudden, I felt hands holding my legs and hands. At first, I thought it was my wife because it felt like the fellow holding me was reaching forward as if to kiss me. However, I realized that whoever could hold my legs with one hand and my hands with the other must be really tall and strong. I opened my eyes to see a tall demon just before it disappeared. I felt a cold sensation throughout my body, but I shrugged it off because it was time to leave for my lecture. Immediately after the lecture, I started vomiting and stooling such that when I managed to drive back home, I had to practically crawl from my car into the apartment. I was in the toilet when I cried, "Daddy, what is this? How can this be happening to your son?" He then replied, "Son, I just wanted you to have a glimpse of the battles I fight for you that you are not aware of." Afterwards, the stooling stopped.

Beloved, you are alive today because God loves you. Isaiah 54:15 says that those who gather against you shall fall for your sake. It will be childish for someone to think that everybody loves him or her. Sometimes, even the members of a fellow's household will hate him or her (Matthew 10:36). As a child of God, however, your confidence should be in knowing that God loves you and that when evil forces gather against you, He will always scatter them.

Beloved, never be afraid of anything; you are more than a conqueror because of the love of Christ.

PRAYER POINT:

Thank You Jesus for loving me.

BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: HEBREWS 1-4

AUTHOR: PASTOR E. A. ADEBOYE

HYMN 13: JESUS LOVES ME THIS I KNOW

1 Jesus loves me, this I know, 

for the Bible tells me so.

Little ones to him belong;

They are weak, but he is strong. 

Refrain:

Yes, Jesus loves me!

Yes, Jesus loves me! 

Yes, Jesus loves me!

The Bible tells me so. 

2 Jesus loves me He who died

Heaven's gate to open wide. 

He will wash away my sin, 

Let his little child come in. Refrain 

3 Jesus loves me, loves me still

Tho' I'm very weak and ill

From His shining throne on high

He will watch me where I lie. Refrain 

4 Jesus loves He will stay

Close beside me all the way,

If I love Him when I die

He will take me home on high.

Open Heavens Daily Devotional by Pastor E.A. Adeboye

 OPEN HEAVENS DAILY DEVOTIONAL

DATE:  SUNDAY DECEMBER 15TH 2024

THEME:  THE WORD OF GOD

MEMORISE:  

The entrance of thy words giveth light; it giveth understanding unto the simple.   

Psalm 119:130

READ:  2 Timothy 3:14-17

14  But continue thou in the things which thou hast learned and hast been assured of, knowing of whom thou hast learned them;

15 And that from a child thou hast known the holy scriptures, which are able to make thee wise unto salvation through faith which is in Christ Jesus.

16 All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness:

17 That the man of God may be perfect, thoroughly furnished unto all good works.

MESSAGE

When the Lord was tempted by the devil in Matthew 4:1-11, the weapon our Lord used was, "It is written." The devil could not argue against that weapon; all he did was to also quote the word of God and try to give it a wrong interpretation. Psalm 119:89 says:

For ever, O LORD, thy word is settled in heaven.

The word of God has absolute authority, therefore, any believer who knows the Scriptures will always be above the wiles of the devil and his cohorts. This is because God's word is final, and the devil cannot change it.

How often do you study your Bible? Many believers only open their Bibles when they are in church, and the pastor asks the congregation to read the Bible passage for the sermon. This is why there are many powerless Christians today. If you don't study the word of God, how will you know the God that you claim to be serving and the blessings that He has made available for you in Him? The word of God must be like food to you. Jeremiah 15:16 says:

Thy words were found, and I did eat them; and  thy word was unto me the joy and rejoicing of mine heart: for I am called by thy name, O LORD God of hosts.

When you esteem the word of God like the food that you depend on to survive, it will bring you so much joy because, all of a sudden, you will realize that you are called by the name of the Lord of Hosts. Names are door openers. If you are the son of a king, whenever you mention your father's name anywhere in the kingdom, you will be treated with respect and doors will be opened to you because you are called by the name of the king.

Our God is the King of kings and the Lord of Hosts. In other words, all kings, the hosts in heaven, on the earth, and underneath the earth are subject to Him. When you eat His word, you personify His name. This means that all kings, the hosts in heaven, on the earth, and underneath the earth will cooperate to do your will. Study the word of God and meditate on it every day. Beloved, this is how to walk in God's blessings for you and have good success (Joshua 1:8).

REFLECTION

Do you esteem the word of God as you should?

BIBLE IN ONE YEAR:  Philemon 1; Titus 1-3

AUTHOR: PASTOR E. A. ADEBOYE

HYMN 3: ANCIENT WORD

1. Holy words long preserved

for our walk in this world,

They resound with God's own heart

Oh, let the Ancient words impart.

CHORUS

Ancient words ever true

Changing me, and changing you.

We have come with open hearts

Oh let the ancient words impart.

2. Words of Life, words of Hope

Give us strength, help us cope

In this world, where e'er we roam

Ancient words will guide us Home.

3. Holy words of our Faith

Handed down to this age.

Came to us through sacrifice

Oh heed the faithful words of Christ.

4. Holy words long preserved

For our walk in this world.

They resound with God's own heart

Oh let the ancient words impart.

DATE:  SATURDAY DECEMBER 14TH 2024.

THEME:  THE BLOOD OF JESUS

MEMORISE: 

And, having made peace through the blood of his cross, by him to reconcile all things unto himself; by him, I say, whether they be things in earth, or things in heaven. 

Colossians 1:20

READ: 1 Peter 1:18-19

18  For as much as ye know that ye were not redeemed with corruptible things, as silver and gold, from your vain conversation received by tradition from your fathers;

19 But with the precious blood of Christ, as of a lamb without blemish and without spot:

MESSAGE

The blood of Jesus is more powerful than many people think. It is a potent weapon that can be used to easily overcome our adversary, the devil, and his cohorts as we see in Revelations 12:10-11:

And I heard a loud voice saying in heaven, Now is come salvation, and strength, and the kingdom of our God, and the power of his Christ: for the accuser of our brethren is cast down, which accused them before our God day and night. And they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb, and by the word of their testimony; and they loved not their lives unto the death.

I face various oppositions from terrible evil forces, and I always emerge victorious because l have learnt to plead the blood of Jesus at all times. In the United States of America, there is a fifth amendment to the constitution that contains the right of a person to not answer any questions that law enforcement agents ask so that the fellow does not incriminate himself or herself. Therefore, when you hear an American say, "I plead the fifth," he or she is exercising the right guaranteed by the Fifth Amendment of the American Constitution. In the same vein, when a child of God pleads the blood of Jesus, he or she is invoking the rights guaranteed by the blood of Jesus that was shed on the cross of Calvary. Some of those rights are recorded in Isaiah 53:5:

But he was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our iniquities: the chastisement of our peace was upon him; and with his stripes we are healed.

You cannot be hurt by the devil because Jesus Christ has already been wounded and 'bruised for your transgressions. He is a protective cover over you against any force of darkness. Also, the devil cannot touch any of your friends, family members, or properties because he must not do anything that will affect your peace, as Jesus already took the chastisement of your peace upon Himself. Also, your health is secure because by the stripes of Jesus Christ, you are healed.

Beloved, you can overcome the devil and his cohorts by the blood of Jesus Christ because the moment you plead the blood, all that Jesus Christ suffered for you comes between you and the devil, forcing him to leave you alone. Make it a habit to always plead the blood of Jesus and you will experience victory in Christ.

ACTION POINT

Make it a habit to plead the blood of Jesus over yourself, your loved ones and all that concerns you.

BIBLE IN ONE YEAR:  2 Timothy 1-4

AUTHOR: PASTOR E. A. ADEBOYE

HYMN 9: THERE IS A FOUNTAIN FILLED WITH THE BLOOD

1. There is a fountain filled with blood

Drawn from Immanuel's veins;

And sinners, plunged beneath that flood,

Lose all their guilty stains:

Lose all their guilty stains,

Lose all their guilty stains;

And sinners, plunged beneath that flood,

Lose all their guilty stains.

2. The dying thief rejoiced to see

That fountain in his day;

And there may I, though vile as he,

Wash all my sins away:

Wash all my sins away,

Wash all my sins away;

And there may I, though vile as he,

Wash all my sins away.

3. Dear dying Lamb, Thy precious blood

Shall never lose its pow'r,

Till all the ransomed Church of God

Be saved, to sin no more:

Be saved, to sin no more,

Be saved, to sin no more;

Till all the ransomed Church of God

Be saved to sin no more.

4. E'er since by faith I saw the stream

Thy flowing wounds supply,

Redeeming love has been my theme,

And shall be till I die:

And shall be till I die,

And shall be till I die;

Redeeming love has been my theme,

And shall be till I die.

5. When this poor lisping, stamm'ring tongue

Lies silent in the grave,

Then in a nobler, sweeter song

I'll sing Thy pow'r to save:

I'll sing Thy pow'r to save,

I'll sing Thy pow'r to save;

Then in a nobler, sweeter song

I'll sing Thy pow'r to save.
