 OPEN HEAVENS DAILY DEVOTIONAL 


DATE: SATURDAY, APRIL 5, 2025


TOPIC: LIKE THE DAY OF PENTECOST 5


MEMORISE

"The Spirit of God hath made me, and the breath of the Almighty hath given me life." - (Job 33:4)


READ: Genesis 1:1-3 (KJV)


1 In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth.


2 And the earth was without form, and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters.


3 And God said, Let there be light: and there was light.


MESSAGE


As I continue to discuss the significance of the events of the day of Pentecost, I want you to consider that on that day, there was a sound of a mighty rushing wind Acts 2:1-2. In Exodus 14:21-28, when the wind blew, a way appeared where there was none before. When a revival like the day of Pentecost happens, every force that is hindering the church will be blown away by the wind, and ways will appear where there were none before.


Some years ago, I was invited to preach in an orthodox church, and I preached about the three basic steps of Christianity: salvation, sanctification, and baptism in the Holy Spirit. When I finished speaking about the Holy Spirit, I was expecting some opposition, but an Archdeacon came to me and said, “Sir, thank you for explaining to us that the Holy Spirit is like wind. If the wind wants to blow past somewhere and someone is blocking the way, what will happen?” I said, “The little I know is that the person will be uprooted.”


Whatever has been standing against your progress and God’s plans for your life will be uprooted once the Holy Ghost comes. I pray that any power of darkness that might be keeping you from fulfilling God’s will and enjoying His blessings will be uprooted by the wind of the Holy Spirit, in Jesus’ name.


Another thing that happens when the wind blows is that there is divine provision. When God was going to give His people meat, He sent forth a wind that brought quails from the sea, and they fell in abundance around the camp such that the people gathered them until the next day Numbers 11:31-32. There is always more than enough where the wind of the Spirit blows.


Lastly, Job said that the Spirit of God made him, and the breath of the Almighty gave him life Job 33:4. God’s wind gives life, and where there is life, death cannot stay. When God breathed into man in Genesis 2:7, man became a living soul; he was transformed from mere dust into a walking, talking being. You will experience transformation when the wind of God’s Spirit blows as it did over the formlessness of the earth and transformed it into a beautiful place Genesis 1:1-3.


I decree that you will receive a fresh visitation of the wind of God this season, in Jesus' name. 


PRAYER POINT

Father, please let the wind of your Spirit blow in my life and ministry, in Jesus’ name.

BIBLE IN ONE YEAR

2 Samuel 14 - 16


HYMN 15 - PASS ME NOT, O GENTLE SAVIOUR


1. Pass me not, O gentle Saviour, 

Hear my humble cry; While on others Thou art calling, Do not pass me by. 


CHORUS 

Saviour, Saviour, Hear my humble cry; While on others Thou art calling; Do not pass me by. 


2. Let me, at Thy throne of mercy 

Find a sweet relief; Kneeling there in deep contrition, Help my unbelief. 


3. Trusting only in Thy merit 

Would I seek Thy face 

Heal my wounded, broken 

spirit, Save me by Thy grace. 


4. Thou, the spring of all my 

comfort, More than life to me. 

Whom have I on earth beside Thee? Whom in heaven but Thee.

Open Heavens Daily Devotional by Pastor E A ADEBOYE

 OPEN HEAVEN DAILY DEVOTIONAL


DATE:  FRIDAY APRIL 4TH 2025


THEME:   LIKE THE DAY OF PENTECOST IV


MEMORIZE:  

Let the high praises of God be in their mouth, and a two- edged sword in their hand;    

Psalm 149:6


READ:  Jeremiah 30:18-22

18  Thus saith the LORD; Behold, I will bring again the captivity of Jacob's tents, and have mercy on his dwelling places; and the city shall be builded upon her own heap, and the palace shall remain after the manner thereof.


19 And out of them shall proceed thanksgiving and the voice of them that make merry: and I will multiply them, and they shall not be few; I will also glorify them, and they shall not be small.


20 Their children also shall be as aforetime, and their congregation shall be established before me, and I will punish all that oppress them.


21 And their nobles shall be of themselves, and their governor shall proceed from the midst of them; and I will cause him to draw near, and he shall approach unto me: for who is this that engaged his heart to approach unto me? saith the LORD.


22 And ye shall be my people, and I will be your God.


MESSAGE

In continuation of my discussion about the significance of the events of the day of Pentecost, I I want to point out that those who listened to the disciples after they had been filled with the Holy Ghost said, "We hear then praising the good works of God in our various languages" (Acts 2:1-12). This means that there must be Constant thanksgiving and praise to God if we want to experience a mighty move of the Holy Spirit in the body of Christ today. 


When we meet to pray concerning our needs, God will show up. However, when we meet just to thank Him and acknowledge His greatness, He will manifest in a powerful way, and there will be a revival; miracles will become commonplace in our midst, and there will be many testimonies.


Years ago, I promised to visit one of the RCCG elders and told him l would spend just five minutes with him. Before l arrived, he had beautiful hymns and praise songs playing because he had observed that I am always humming songs of praise to God. I didn't know when I spent one hour with him because I was enjoying the music. If you are God's child and He always hears praises around you, He will definitely stay with you. God inhabits the praises of His people (Psalm 22:3); He comes wherever He is

exalted and extolled.


People who complain and murmur cannot host God's presence. When the Israelites murmured, it displeased God, and at some point, His fire fell among them. Unlike the tongues of fire on the day of Pentecost, this fire burnt and consumed them (Numbers 11:1). When Paul and Silas were imprisoned, instead of complaining, they started praising God. God came into the prison and caused a great earthquake such that the foundations were shaken (Acts 16:25-26). When you praise God amidst difficulties, He brings solutions that men cannot deny, giving you blessings that extend to those around you. When the prison was shaken, all the doors were opened, and everyone's bands were loosed.


Beloved, surrender your life to Jesus Christ if you haven't done so and choose to live a life of praise. The Holy Spirit will dwell in you and manifest mightily around you. He will liberate you if you are in any form of bondage and bless you so much that the blessings will be evident in your life and in the lives of everyone connected to you.


ACTION POINT

Praise and thank God for 30 minutes. Don't ask for anything; just praise and thank Him.


BIBLE IN ONE YEAR:  2 Samuel 12-13


AUTHOR: PASTOR E. A ADEBOYE


HYMN 17: PRAISE MY SOUL THE KING OF HEAVEN

1. Praise, my soul, the King of heaven;

to his feet your tribute bring.

Ransomed, healed, restored, forgiven,

evermore his praises sing.

Alleluia, alleluia!

Praise the everlasting King!


2. Praise him for his grace and favor

to his people in distress.

Praise him, still the same as ever,

slow to chide, and swift to bless.

Alleluia, alleluia!

Glorious in his faithfulness!


3. Fatherlike he tends and spares us;

well our feeble frame he knows.

In his hand he gently bears us,

rescues us from all our foes.

Alleluia, alleluia!

Widely yet his mercy flows!

TOPIC: LIKE THE DAY OF PENTECOST III


MEMORISE:

"Submitting yourselves one to another in the fear of God." - (Ephesians 5:21)


READ: EPHESIAN 5:21 (KJV)


21 Submitting yourselves one to another in the fear of God.


MESSAGE:


Over the past two days, I have been discussing the significance of the events that happened on the day of Pentecost. On that day, everyone in that upper room received a touch from God. Their hearts were tuned to God, and they were all filled with the Holy Spirit.


If we truly want a revival in our generation, we cannot watch weak believers remain in their weak states. We must sharpen each other (Proverbs 27:17) such that the 'weakest' among us will be working miracles. If we're really united, we won't look away when we see a brother dozing when he should be praying; we will hold his hand to encourage him to pray. We will not see a sister dressing indecently and showing signs of backsliding without trying to encourage her faith. If someone's fire seems to be dying, pray for the fellow rather than use him or her as a bad example to others to make yourself look righteous.


Everyone in the upper room on that particular day received a touch from God because they submitted to Him and to one another - nobody felt superior. In the 70s, I knew a young man called Bro Sam. He wasn't a member of RCCG, but he was very popular because he was heavily anointed by God. He couldn't speak English, but he was so anointed and was well sought after. On one occasion, he was invited to preach at a college. When he got up to say that he didn't speak English and would need an interpreter, Queen's English began to flow from his lips. He didn't know what he was saying, but the message kept flowing. After about one hour, people began to rush forward, weeping and crying for salvation. As soon as he left the college, he couldn't speak English again. There were testimonies of at least three dead people that God resurrected through him. Whenever he prayed for the sick, he would describe how their sicknesses were moving out of their bodies until they were completely healed. However, pride entered his heart after a while, and whenever he was called to go for Bible study, he would say, "Who is preaching? How many dead people has he raised?" Sadly, he ended up in an asylum. 


Beloved, if we want God's power to rest among us, we must shun pride and submit to one another in the fear of God (Ephesians 5:21). We must also look out for the feeble among us and lift them up. 


 ACTION POINT:

Shun pride and lift your fellow believers up. 


BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: 2 SAMUEL 8-11


AUTHOR PASTOR E A ADEBOYE 


HYMN: 24 - I WANT TO BE LIKE JESUS 


1 I want to be like Jesus,

So lowly and so meek;

For no one marked an angry word

That ever heard him speak.

Refrain:

I want to be like Jesus,

God's well beloved Son;

I want to be like Jesus,

The pure and holy One.


2 I want to be like Jesus,

So frequently in prayer;

Alone upon the mountain top,

He met his Father there. 


3 I want to be like Jesus,

Engaged in doing good,

So that of me it may be said,

He hath done what he could. 


4 Alas! I'm not like Jesus,

As any one may see;

Thy gentle Spirit, Savior, send,

And make me like to thee.

TOPIC: LIKE THE DAY OF PENTECOST II


MEMORISE:

"So we, being many, are one body in Christ, and every one members one of another." - (Romans 12:5)


READ: 1 CORINTHIANS 12:18-27 (KJV)


18 But now hath God set the members every one of them in the body, as it hath pleased him.


19 And if they were all one member, where were the body?


20 But now are they many members, yet but one body.


21 And the eye cannot say unto the hand, I have no need of thee: nor again the head to the feet, I have no need of you.


22 Nay, much more those members of the body, which seem to be more feeble, are necessary:


23 And those members of the body, which we think to be less honourable, upon these we bestow more abundant honour; and our uncomely parts have more abundant comeliness.


24 For our comely parts have no need: but God hath tempered the body together, having given more abundant honour to that part which lacked:


25 That there should be no schism in the body; but that the members should have the same care one for another.


26 And whether one member suffer, all the members suffer with it; or one member be honoured, all the members rejoice with it.


27 Now ye are the body of Christ, and members in particular.


MESSAGE:

I started discussing yesterday about the impact of the day of Pentecost and how Christians must be focused and separated from the world for us to experience such a revival again. Another thing I must point out is that on the day of Pentecost, the disciples were in one accord. If we want to see the power of the Holy Spirit in action, there must be love and unity in the Body of Christ, irrespective of denominations.


Psalm 133:1-3 says that God commands a blessing when people are united. It didn’t say that God gives a blessing; it says that He commands a blessing. In other words, He says, “Blessing, you must manifest.” When there is genuine love and unity among the members of a church or fellowship, there is absolutely no doubt that every member of that fellowship will be blessed.


God’s power will not manifest in a divided church or family. Unity attracts God’s presence, just as sugar attracts ants. Likewise, if a church is full of strife, jealousy, and all sorts of carnal works, God’s power will be far from that church. Paul had to rebuke the Corinthian church for having factions. While some said that they were for Paul, some claimed that they were for Apollos (1 Corinthians 3:4). Paul called them carnal for their disunity. The Body of Christ is one, and if we want to experience God’s power and presence like on the day of Pentecost, we must lay aside our petty differences and focus on the One whose name we bear - Jesus Christ. We cannot attack one another and expect God to dwell among us.


But if ye bite and devour one another, take heed that ye be not consumed one of another. Galatians 5:15


In the Scripture above, we see that when we live in disunity, we will consume one another. Many believers have injured other members of the Body of Christ with their words and actions. We must stop this and live in love and unity so that God’s presence and power can truly be manifested among us.


Loving one another and being united is a sure way of showing the world that we are truly Jesus’ disciples John 13:35. We should not let unbelievers reject the gospel because they do not see love among us as Christians.


The body of Christ must unite. Gossiping, backbiting, and unhealthy competition among denominations must stop if we want to experience a true revival by the Holy Spirit. 


 PRAYER POINT:

Father, please help me to love others as myself and let there be unity among Christians.
