Open Heavens Daily Devotional by Pastor E A ADEBOYE

DATE: TUESDAY, FEBRUARY 25TH 2025


TOPIC: THE STONY GROUND


MEMORISE:

“And some fell on stony ground, where it had not much earth; and immediately it sprang up, because it had no depth of earth.” - (Mark 4:5)


READ: MARK 4:16-17 (KJV)


16 And these are they likewise which are sown on stony ground; who, when they have heard the word, immediately receive it with gladness;


17 And have no root in themselves, and so endure but for a time: afterward, when affliction or persecution ariseth for the word's sake, immediately they are offended.


MESSAGE:

In continuation of my discussion from yesterday about the different kinds of soils, I will examine stony grounds today. The major problem with a stony ground is that it does not retain water sufficiently for the seeds planted in it to grow. Water is needed for seeds to germinate, even though it is God who will determine the increase (1 Corinthians 3:6-8).


In Amos 4:7-8, the Lord said that if He decides to withhold the rain, a city will soon go into famine and will start begging another city, where it has continued to rain, for food. When people invest in ventures that God is not involved in, they are planting seeds on stony grounds. When you consider such ventures carefully, you will realise that they are designed to attract and fool only greedy and desperate people. In my lifetime, I have seen many Ponzi schemes come and go, and I warn those close to me to desist from them. Some listen, but others do not, and they suffer when they lose their money.


God is and remains our Supplier; when we apply Biblical principles and work diligently with our hands, He will prosper us. Any investment that goes against Biblical principles, such as hard work, diligence, faithfulness, patience, and contentment, is a stony ground. Those who hasten to be rich will not be innocent, and such people will end up piercing themselves through with many sorrows.


A faithful man shall abound with blessings: but he that maketh haste to be rich shall not be innocent. (Proverbs 28:20)


For the love of money is the root of all evil: which while some coveted after, they have erred from the faith, and pierced themselves through with many sorrows. (1 Timothy 6:10)


Beloved, you must guard your heart against greed and covetousness. You must be content with what you have while working diligently so that God can bless the works of your hands. Gehazi, Elisha's servant, allowed greed to rule him, and he ended up inheriting leprosy. While he could have inherited a double portion of Elisha's anointing, he subjected himself and his lineage to a lifetime of shame, seclusion, and frustration (2 Kings 5:20-27).


Beloved, greed, impatience, and not following God's instructions can lead you to sow on stony grounds. Sowing on stony grounds cannot produce good harvests; it will only lead to frustration. I pray that the Lord will show you the right places to sow, in Jesus' name. 


 PRAYER POINT:

Father, help me not to sow on stony grounds. Please guide my sowing and bless the work of my hands, in Jesus' name. 


BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: DEUTERONOMY 12-15


HYMN: 10 - IN CHRIST ALONE 


1 In Christ alone my hope is found

He is my light, my strength, my song

This Cornerstone, this solid Ground

Firm through the fiercest drought and storm

What heights of love, what depths of peace

When fears are stilled, when strivings cease

My Comforter, my All in All

Here in the love of Christ I stand


2 In Christ alone! Who took on flesh

Fullness of God in helpless babe

This gift of love and righteousness

Scorned by the ones He came to save

Till on that cross as Jesus died

The wrath of God was satisfied

For every sin on Him was laid

Here in the death of Christ I live


3 There in the ground His body lay

Light of the world by darkness slain

Then bursting forth in glorious Day

Up from the grave He rose again

And as He stands in victory

Sin's curse has lost its grip on me

For I am His and He is mine

Bought with the precious blood of Christ


4 No guilt in life, no fear in death

This is the power of Christ in me

From life's first cry to final breath

Jesus commands my destiny

No power of hell, no scheme of man

Can ever pluck me from His hand

Till He returns or calls me home

Here in the power of Christ I'll stand

Open Heavens Daily Devotional by Pastor E A ADEBOYE

 OPEN HEAVENS DAILY DEVOTIONAL 


DATE: MONDAY FEBRUARY 24TH 2025


TOPIC: THE WAYSIDE


MEMORISE:

“And it came to pass, as he sowed, some fell by the wayside, and the fowls of the air came and devoured it up.” - (Mark 4:4)


READ: MARK 4:14-15 (KJV)


14 The sower soweth the word.


15 And these are they by the way side, where the word is sown; but when they have heard, Satan cometh immediately, and taketh away the word that was sown in their hearts.


MESSAGE:

Yesterday, I explained that the quality of soil determines the level of harvest that a seed can yield. When a seed is planted in some soils, it will not even germinate. In today's memory verse, we see that some seeds that fell on the wrong kind of soil did not germinate because birds ate them.


Some scholars have suggested that the wayside refers to money spent on regular wild parties and other similar vices. When people throw parties, people will come, eat, drink, and say 'thank you'; however, that is where it all ends. Such people might say, "Others will invite me to their parties also." This is true, but we do not live by parties; we live by daily bread. If you want God's wisdom for financial prosperity, you must be prudent with your spending.


There is treasure to be desired and oil in the dwelling of the wise; but a foolish man spendeth it up. (Proverbs 21:20)


Only fools spend everything they have at once. Some people spend all their earnings recklessly. For example, some unbelievers drink and buy alcohol for others. Such people are unwise because, like the prodigal son, they will eventually be abandoned by those they lavished their money on.


The wayside can also refer to actions that expose people's finances to satanic attacks. In the parable of the sower, the seeds that fell by the wayside were eaten by birds, and as Jesus explained in today's Bible reading, the birds represent satan. When Christians do not pay their tithes, they are robbing God and throwing their finances on the wayside for satan to devour. Paying your tithes makes the Lord rebuke the devourer for your sake (Malachi 3:8-11).


When believers, including ministers of God, steal God's money or take anything that doesn't belong to them without permission from the owners, they are exposing themselves to the devil's attacks. Someone once said to me, "I learned that your Festival of Life programme in the UK has become very big." I said, "Yes, sir." Then, he said, "How much is the church's income from the service?" When I told him that I didn't know, he didn't believe me. I told him that the UK pastors were in charge and that they know that the Bible is clear that anyone who acquires wealth wrongly would die suddenly (Jeremiah 17:11). Those who steal God's money are inviting satan to feast on their lives and finances. 


 PRAYER POINT:

Father, please show me every way I might have been wasteful, and help me to make amends, in Jesus' name. Amen. 


BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: DEUTERONOMY 9-11


HYMNAL: 31 - YIELD NOT TO TEMPTATION 


1 Yield not to temptation,

For yielding is sin;

Each vict’ry will help you,

Some other to win;

Fight valiantly onward,

Evil passions subdue;

Look ever to Jesus,

He will carry you through.

Refrain:

Ask the Savior to help you,

Comfort, strengthen and keep you;

He is willing to aid you,

He will carry you through.


2 Shun evil companions,

Bad language disdain;

God’s name hold in rev’rence,

Nor take it in vain;

Be thoughtful and earnest,

Kindhearted and true;

Look ever to Jesus,

He will carry you through. 


3 To him that o’ercometh,

God giveth a crown;

Through faith we will conquer,

Though often cast down;

He who is our Savior,

Our strength will renew;

Look ever to Jesus,

He will carry you through.

 OPEN HEAVENS DAILY DEVOTIONAL


DATE: SUNDAY FEBRUARY 23RD 2025


THEME: FINANCIAL WISDOM

 

MEMORISE:

With him is wisdom and strength, he hath counsel and understanding. 

Job 12:13


READ: Mark 4:1-9


1 And he began again to teach by the sea side: and there was gathered unto him a great multitude, so that he entered into a ship, and sat in the sea; and the whole multitude was by the sea on the land.


2 And he taught them many things by parables, and said unto them in his doctrine,


3 Hearken; Behold, there went out a sower to sow:


4 And it came to pass, as he sowed, some fell by the way side, and the fowls of the air came and devoured it up.


5 And some fell on stony ground, where it had not much earth; and immediately it sprang up, because it had no depth of earth:


6 But when the sun was up, it was scorched; and because it had no root, it withered away.


7 And some fell among thorns, and the thorns grew up, and choked it, and it yielded no fruit.


8 And other fell on good ground, and did yield fruit that sprang up and increased; and brought forth, some thirty, and some sixty, and some an hundred.


9 And he said unto them, He that hath ears to hear, let him hear.


MESSAGE:

Seeds have the potential to become harvests, but not all fulfil that potential. John 12:24 says that except a seed falls to the ground and dies, it abides alone. Everyseed remains alone if it is kept in a bag or on a shelf; it can be eaten as it is, but it won't be multiplied. Isaiah 55:10 says that God gives seed to the sower and bread to the eater. Beloved, you can choose to either be a sower or an eater. If you keep eating everything that comes to you, what then will you sow in order to have a greater harvest?


Wise people set apart good seeds to be sown into good soils, and they get great harvests. Money that is put aside for investment is a seed, while the place, person, or business that it is invested in is the soil. The better the soil, the better the harvest will be. You must learn to recognise good soils and water your seeds to ensure they yield the best harvest.


Over the next few days, I will discuss the different kinds of soils and the ones you should invest in or avoid. Today, however, I will explain some vital keys to financial wisdom.


Job 36:11 tells us a secret to accessing God's wisdom for financial prosperity: obey and serve Him. When you obey God, He will show you the treasures of darkness and hidden riches in secret places (Isaiah 45:3). How obedient are you to God concerning your finances? Do you honour Him with all He has given you? Do you pay your tithes faithfully? Do you give to the needy and poor?


When you obey God, He will give you supernatural ideas that will make you thrive in the midst of famine, just as He gave Isaac. Isaac wanted to relocate when famine hit the land, but God told him to stay put, and he obeyed. His obedience gave him access to God's wisdom, and despite the famine, he reaped a hundredfold that same year (Genesis 26:1-12).


Job 36:11 also talks about service as a key to God's wisdom for financial prosperity. How you serve God matters. If you serve Him grudgingly or carelessly, He will not trust you with the wisdom to make wealth. Jesus told us not to cast our pearls before swine (Matthew 7:6-7); He won't cast His before swine too.


Beloved, serve God acceptably in reverence and godly fear (Hebrews 12:28), and He will bless you with financial wisdom, among other things.

 

KEY POINT:

Obeying and serving the Lord will give you access to His wisdom for financial prosperity.


BiBLE IN ONE YEAR: Deuteronomy 5-8

 

AUTHOR: PASTOR E.A. ADEBOYE


HYMN 28: GUIDE ME, O THOU GREAT JEHOVAH

1 Guide me, O Thou great Jehovah,

Pilgrim through this barren land.

I am weak, but Thou art mighty;

Hold me with Thy powerful hand.

Bread of heaven, Bread of heaven!

Feed me now and evermore;

Bread of heaven, Bread of heaven!

Feed me now and evermore. 


2 Open now the crystal fountain,

Whence the healing stream doth flow;

Let the fiery, cloudy pillar

Lead me all my journey through.

Strong Deliverer! Strong Deliverer!

Be Thou still my Strength and Shield.

Strong Deliverer! Strong Deliverer!

Be Thou still my Strength and Shield. 


3 If I tread the verge of Jordan,

Bid my anxious fears subside;

Bear me through the swelling torrent,

Land me safe on Canaan's side:

Songs of praises! Songs of praises!

I will ever give to Thee.

Songs of praises! Songs of praises!

I will ever give to Thee. 


4 Saviour, come! We long to see Thee,

Long to dwell with Thee above;

And to know in full communion,

All the sweetness of Thy love,

Come, Lord Jesus! Come, Lord Jesus!

Take Thy waiting people home 

Come, Lord Jesus! Come, Lord Jesus!

Take Thy waiting people home.

THEME:  JEHOVAH RAPHA


MEMORISE:  

And you shall serve the Lord your God, and he shall bless thy bread, and thy water, and I will take sickness away from the midst of thee.    

Exodus 23:25


READ:  John 9:1-7 

1 And as Jesus passed by, he saw a man which was blind from his birth.


2 And his disciples asked him, saying, Master, who did sin, this man, or his parents, that he was born blind?


3 Jesus answered, Neither hath this man sinned, nor his parents: but that the works of God should be made manifest in him.


4 I must work the works of him that sent me, while it is day: the night cometh, when no man can work.


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


6 When he had thus spoken, he spat on the ground, and made clay of the spittle, and he anointed the eyes of the blind man with the clay,


7 And said unto him, Go, wash in the pool of Siloam, (which is by interpretation, Sent.) He went his way therefore, and washed, and came seeing.


MESSAGE

Years ago, I suddenly discovered that I was having trouble with my hearing. I called one of my daughters, who is a doctor, and asked her to check my ears. When she checked them, she exclaimed, "Oh God!" She then said that both ears had growths inside, and she encouraged me to go to the hospital. I smiled and told her to give me seven days, after which I would allow her to do whatever needed to be done medically if the growths were still there. I knew that I have a Father who is the Doctor of doctors, so I spoke to Him after she left. I said, "Father, please give me new ears because I need to be able to hear people say 'amen' when I pray." When she returned on the seventh day to look into my ears, she exclaimed again, "Oh God!" But that time around, her exclamation was a positive one because Jehovah Rapha had healed me.


Do you know that it is possible to live without falling sick? Do you know that healing is your bread if you a child of God? However, for God to be the Lord that heals you, you must diligently hearken to His voice (Exodus 15:26). You must do whatever He tells you to do and obey Him promptly. When the ten lepers saw Jesus and cried out to Him for healing, He asked them to go and show themselves to the priests (Luke 17:11- 14). Doing that was risky because if they got to the priest without being healed, they might have been stoned to death. They took the risk to obey Jesus, and they were healed. Likewise, the man who was born blind received his healing when Jesus asked him to go and wash in the pool of Siloam (John 9:7). He chose to obey Jesus, and he returned with his sight.


Beloved, it is God's will for you to enjoy healing in all areas of your life. It is the Father's good pleasure for you to live in sound health, but you must hearken diligently to His voice. What has God asked you to stop eating or drinking? What has He asked you to start doing? Be prompt to obey Him, and you will enjoy healing and sound health in all areas, in Jesus' name.


KEY POINT

The key to living in divine health is obeying God.


BIBLE IN ONE YEAR:  Deuteronomy 3-4
