TOPIC: NO MORE LABOURING 1

MEMORISE:

"Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest." - (Matthew 11:28)

READ: LUKE 5:1-7 (KJV)

1 And it came to pass, that, as the people pressed upon him to hear the word of God, he stood by the lake of Gennesaret,

2 And saw two ships standing by the lake: but the fishermen were gone out of them, and were washing their nets.

3 And he entered into one of the ships, which was Simon's, and prayed him that he would thrust out a little from the land. And he sat down, and taught the people out of the ship.

4 Now when he had left speaking, he said unto Simon, Launch out into the deep, and let down your nets for a draught.

5 And Simon answering said unto him, Master, we have toiled all the night, and have taken nothing: nevertheless at thy word I will let down the net.

6 And when they had this done, they inclosed a great multitude of fishes: and their net brake.

7 And they beckoned unto their partners, which were in the other ship, that they should come and help them. And they came, and filled both the ships, so that they began to sink.

MESSAGE:

In 1963, while I was a teacher at Ondo Boys’ High School in South-West Nigeria, I was teaching 35 lesson periods every week. Another tutor, who had more experience and qualifications than me, was teaching just 21 lesson periods every week. He was earning four times more than I was earning and was still grumbling about the workload. I went to him and said, “Sir, you are teaching 21 lesson periods while I am teaching 35, yet you are earning four times what I am earning, and you are complaining.” He drew me close, patted me, and said, “My boy, you don’t understand. I’m being paid for what I have already done. I’m being paid for what is in my brain.” While I was labouring and earning peanuts, the other teacher wasn’t working as hard, yet he was earning more.

There is a difference between working diligently and labouring. A manual labourer has to work very hard to get little pay. You can’t call a manager a labourer; both of them go to their workplaces in the morning, but one goes to work, and the other goes to labour. Even though a manager arrives at the office very early every day and works hard, he or she gets paid something worthwhile for his or her efforts. In Genesis 2:15, God gave Adam a garden to tend. Some Bible scholars have described the Garden of Eden to be as big as Lagos, Nigeria. To ask one man to keep a garden of that size requires a lot of work. However, Adam was working, not labouring. After he fell into sin, he began to labour (Genesis 3:17-19), such that when he worked, he sweated - it wasn’t recorded that he sweated before this time. Additionally, after labouring and sweating, the ground yielded thorns and thistles.

In Luke 5:5, Peter toiled all night and caught nothing - that is labouring. Even though he worked hard all night, he had nothing to show for it. However, Peter’s labouring days ended when Jesus came into his life. If you have been labouring and you want your labouring days to come to an end, rebuild your connection with God, and He will put an end to fruitless labours in your life forever.

Beloved, if for whatever reason, you are experiencing fruitless labour even though you have surrendered your life to Christ and are living according to His will, I decree that the Lord will step into your situation today and put an end to labouring in your life, in Jesus' name. 

 KEY POINT:

An active connection with God will ensure that you do not experience fruitless labour.

HYMN:  27 - WHAT A FRIEND WE HAVE IN JESUS 

1 What a friend we have in Jesus,

all our sins and griefs to bear!

What a privilege to carry

everything to God in prayer!

O what peace we often forfeit,

O what needless pain we bear,

all because we do not carry

everything to God in prayer!

2 Have we trials and temptations?

Is there trouble anywhere?

We should never be discouraged;

take it to the Lord in prayer!

Can we find a friend so faithful

who will all our sorrows share?

Jesus knows our every weakness;

take it to the Lord in prayer!

3 Are we weak and heavy laden,

cumbered with a load of care?

Precious Savior, still our refuge--

take it to the Lord in prayer!

Do your friends despise, forsake you?

Take it to the Lord in prayer!

In his arms he'll take and shield you;

you will find a solace there.

TOPIC: PRAYERS FOR THE CHURCH

MEMORISE:

"So mightily grew the word of God and prevailed." - (Acts 19:20)

READ: ACTS 4:23-33 (KJV)

23 And being let go, they went to their own company, and reported all that the chief priests and elders had said unto them.

24 And when they heard that, they lifted up their voice to God with one accord, and said, Lord, thou art God, which hast made heaven, and earth, and the sea, and all that in them is:

25 Who by the mouth of thy servant David hast said, Why did the heathen rage, and the people imagine vain things?

26 The kings of the earth stood up, and the rulers were gathered together against the Lord, and against his Christ.

27 For of a truth against thy holy child Jesus, whom thou hast anointed, both Herod, and Pontius Pilate, with the Gentiles, and the people of Israel, were gathered together,

28 For to do whatsoever thy hand and thy counsel determined before to be done.

29 And now, Lord, behold their threatenings: and grant unto thy servants, that with all boldness they may speak thy word,

30 By stretching forth thine hand to heal; and that signs and wonders may be done by the name of thy holy child Jesus.

31 And when they had prayed, the place was shaken where they were assembled together; and they were all filled with the Holy Ghost, and they spake the word of God with boldness.

32 And the multitude of them that believed were of one heart and of one soul: neither said any of them that ought of the things which he possessed was his own; but they had all things common.

33 And with great power gave the apostles witness of the resurrection of the Lord Jesus: and great grace was upon them all.

PRAYERS:

1. Father, thank You for Your church. Despite all the schemes of the enemy, Your church is still marching on.

2. Father, please let there be a fresh outpouring of Your Spirit on Your church. As you did on the day of Pentecost, pour out Your Spirit on Your church, and let there be a revival, in Jesus' name.

3. Father, please let there be unity and strong fellowship among all the members of Your church. Let there be love and unity among all genuine Christian denominations, and let Your will be done on the earth through Your church, in Jesus’ name.

4. Father, I pray for all church leaders around the world. Give them wisdom, boldness, and the unction of the Holy Spirit to succeed in their service to You, in Jesus' name.

5. Father, please strengthen and encourage all the pastors and church leaders around the world. Do not let the devil strike the shepherds and scatter Your flock, in Jesus’ name.

6. Father, I pray for all the Christians in regions around the world where Christians are being persecuted. Please let Your light abide with them and protect them, in Jesus' name.

7. Father, please shield, encourage, and strengthen all Christian missionaries around the world. Let Your Holy Spirit abide with them, and let all their prayers be answered speedily, in Jesus' name.

8. Father, I pray for all churches in unconventional places like prisons, military camps, et cetera. Let your presence fill such places, and let there be miracles and a harvest of souls, in Jesus' name.

9. Father, please let the gospel of Christ spread and dwell in every corner of the world. Cause every negative policy that is hindering the preaching of the gospel and the establishment of churches to be reversed, in Jesus' name.

10. Father, please supply Your church on the earth with abundant resources so that we can carry out Your mandate of making disciples of nations, in Jesus' name.

11. Father, please bless my local assembly and help us to fulfil Your vision for us on the earth. Let Your promises concerning us be brought to pass speedily, in Jesus' name.

12. Your personal prayer points for your local assembly and the body of Christ as a whole.

that calls me from a world of care,

and bids me at my Father's throne

In seasons of distress and grief,

my soul has often found relief,

and oft escaped the tempter's snare

by thy return, sweet hour of prayer!

2 Sweet hour of prayer! sweet hour of prayer!

and gladly take my station there,

and wait for thee, sweet hour of prayer!

3 Sweet hour of prayer! sweet hour of prayer!

thy wings shall my petition bear

to him whose truth and faithfulness

engage the waiting soul to bless.

And since he bids me seek his face,

believe his word, and trust his grace,

I'll cast on him my every care,

and wait for thee, sweet hour of prayer!

DATE: MONDAY APRIL 7TH 2025

TOPIC: LIKE THE DAY OF PENTECOST VII

MEMORISE:

"Insomuch that they brought forth the sick into the streets, and laid them on beds and couches, that at the least, the shadow of Peter passing by might overshadow some of them." - (Acts 5:15)

READ: ACTS 1:1-8 (KJV)

1 The former treatise have I made, O Theophilus, of all that Jesus began both to do and teach,

2 Until the day in which he was taken up, after that he through the Holy Ghost had given commandments unto the apostles whom he had chosen:

3 To whom also he shewed himself alive after his passion by many infallible proofs, being seen of them forty days, and speaking of the things pertaining to the kingdom of God:

4 And, being assembled together with them, commanded them that they should not depart from Jerusalem, but wait for the promise of the Father, which, saith he, ye have heard of me.

5 For John truly baptized with water; but ye shall be baptized with the Holy Ghost not many days hence.

6 When they therefore were come together, they asked of him, saying, Lord, wilt thou at this time restore again the kingdom to Israel?

7 And he said unto them, It is not for you to know the times or the seasons, which the Father hath put in his own power.

8 But ye shall receive power, after that the Holy Ghost is come upon you: and ye shall be witnesses unto me both in Jerusalem, and in all Judaea, and in Samaria, and unto the uttermost part of the earth.

MESSAGE:

I will conclude my discussion on the significance of the events of the day of Pentecost by sharing an encounter I had with God that has greatly impacted my journey in ministry.

Just before my birthday some years ago, the Lord asked me what birthday gift I wanted, and I told Him that I wanted a miracle for every member of my congregation. I could have asked for anything that day, and He would have given me, but I asked for the power of the Holy Spirit in action among my congregation. He then told me to hold a programme which we called the Holy Ghost Service, and from that time on, we started to see great miracles that we had never seen before in RCCG. Special miracles started happening through me when I allowed God to use me to create an atmosphere for the Holy Spirit to move mightily in our midst.

Every believer is qualified to work miracles (Mark 16:17-18), but the one who will create the atmosphere that will host the Holy Spirit will work special miracles and cause a revival like what happened on the day of Pentecost.

On the day of Pentecost, everyone present in the upper room was tremendously blessed, but one fellow stood out - Peter. Peter was singled out for something extraordinary. The Lord had promised him in Luke 5:1-11 that he would catch men and not fish, and the promise came into full manifestation after the upper room experience; he preached just one sermon and won 3000 souls (Acts 2:14-41). While others performed miracles, he was outstanding as his shadow began to heal the sick (Acts 5:15). This is what happens when you make yourself available to create the kind of atmosphere that can host the Holy Spirit.

I know that from reading this series, you have been triggered to spark a revival. I have good news for ministers who will create the kind of atmosphere that will bring about the manifestation of the power of the Holy Spirit in their churches or fellowships - their ministries will grow exponentially. I pray that God will move you into a deeper level of His power and begin to perform special miracles through you, in Jesus' name. 

 KEY POINT:

Father, please help me to create the kind of atmosphere in which Your Holy Spirit loves to dwell, in Jesus’ name. 

BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: 2 SAMUEL 20-22

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, 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 Oh, 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 cannot know

Till I cross the narrow sea;

There are heights of joy that I may not reach

Till I rest in peace with Thee.

 OPEN HEAVENS DAILY DEVOTIONAL 

DATE: SUNDAY APRIL 6TH 2025

TOPIC: LIKE THE DAY OF PENTECOST VI

MEMORISE:

"Now when Solomon had made an end of praying, the fire came down from heaven, and consumed the burnt offering and sacrifices; and the glory of the Lord filled the house." - (2 Chronicles 7:1)

READ: 1 KINGS 18:30-39 (KJV)

30 And Elijah said unto all the people, Come near unto me. And all the people came near unto him. And he repaired the altar of the LORD that was broken down.

31 And Elijah took twelve stones, according to the number of the tribes of the sons of Jacob, unto whom the word of the LORD came, saying, Israel shall be thy name:

32 And with the stones he built an altar in the name of the LORD: and he made a trench about the altar, as great as would contain two measures of seed.

33 And he put the wood in order, and cut the bullock in pieces, and laid him on the wood, and said, Fill four barrels with water, and pour it on the burnt sacrifice, and on the wood.

34 And he said, Do it the second time. And they did it the second time. And he said, Do it the third time. And they did it the third time.

35 And the water ran round about the altar; and he filled the trench also with water.

36 And it came to pass at the time of the offering of the evening sacrifice, that Elijah the prophet came near, and said, LORD God of Abraham, Isaac, and of Israel, let it be known this day that thou art God in Israel, and that I am thy servant, and that I have done all these things at thy word.

37 Hear me, O LORD, hear me, that this people may know that thou art the LORD God, and that thou hast turned their heart back again.

38 Then the fire of the LORD fell, and consumed the burnt sacrifice, and the wood, and the stones, and the dust, and licked up the water that was in the trench.

39 And when all the people saw it, they fell on their faces: and they said, The LORD, he is the God; the LORD, he is the God.

MESSAGE:

Today, as I continue my discussion on the events of the day of Pentecost in Acts 2, I want to examine the implication of the fire that appeared and sat on each of the disciples. In today’s Bible reading, we see that Elijah’s prayer that caused fire to fall from heaven was majorly filled with praises. In the atmosphere of praise, God answers prayers by fire. When the fire fell, idol worship stopped in the land. The reason the agenda of the devil appears to be thriving in certain places is that the necessary conditions for revival have not been met.

Another thing Elijah did before the fire fell in today’s Bible reading was to repair the broken altar. When we repair our broken altars of prayer, praise, and worship, God’s fire will fall. We cannot be lukewarm and expect God to send His fire. The disciples tarried in the upper room before God’s fire fell - they were busy praying and setting the stage for His fire (Acts 2:1-2). After Elijah repaired the broken altar, he put the wood in order and prepared the sacrifice (1 Kings 18:33). We cannot be disorderly and expect God’s fire to fall.

Elijah also asked the people to pour four barrels of water thrice on the sacrifice. Note that it hadn’t rained for three and a half years; therefore, pouring such an amount of water was a huge sacrifice on its own. The people poured a scarce commodity in preparation for rain. No wonder God was in a hurry to send down His fire. Wherever God sees unusual sacrifice, He sends His fire. In (2 Chronicles 5), after completing the temple, Solomon gathered all the Levites, priests, and Israelites, and they sacrificed sheep and oxen, which could not be told or numbered for multitude. After this great sacrifice, God’s presence filled the temple such that the priests could not stand to minister. Then, as soon as Solomon finished praying, fire fell from heaven and consumed the burnt offering and sacrifices (2 Chronicles 7:1). God’s fire of preservation, increase, and unusual miracles falls in atmospheres of prayer and sacrificial giving.

Beloved, do you desire God's fire? Don't hold back in giving Him your heart, time, and resources. Give sacrificially and pray consistently; you will be visited by the fire of God's power, provision, and glory. 

 PRAYER POINT:

Father, I will not withhold anything from You. Please help me to give sacrificially to attract Your fire, in Jesus’ name. 

BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: 2 SAMUEL 17-19

AUTHOR PASTOR E A ADEBOYE 

HYMN: 23 - TAKE MY LIFE, AND LET IT BE 

1 Take my life and let it be

2 Take my hands and let them move

Kindly, purchase your own hard copy or online version of the Open Heavens devotional & buy for your friends too, as a potent evangelism tool. God bless you, as you sow, into Pastor E.A. Adeboye's, books ministry.

Note:

You may not add, subtract or rearrange these prayer points.

 The Holy Spirit is the author, though He used someone, who, out of humility has refused to take glory for it, by not putting his name. It is plagiarism to use, or pass as your own, someone else writing or work. The original author of these prayer points is the Holy Spirit. So, share, but don't share His glory with Him in the process.

Remain blessed, as you obey, in Jesus' name.
