Open Heavens Prayer Points

PRAYER POINTS ON TODAY'S OPEN HEAVENS DEVOTIONAL


Thursday 29th May, 2025


WAITING ON GOD


Special Note.


These prayer points are not written by Pastor E. A. Adeboye, but by one of his disciples of Christ, who was inspired and  mandated by the Holy Spirit, effective, January 1st, 2015, to start writing these prayer points, based on the Open Heavens Daily Devotional  authored by Pastor E. A. Adeboye.


Some of the prayer points are deep spiritually and may not be understood by carnal minds.


If you want to be blessed from these prayer points, you must first, surrender Your life, to the Lord Jesus Christ, Himself, by saying this prayer:


“Lord Jesus, I come to You with a deeply repentant heart, please, forgive me all my sins. I surrender my life to you, today, and, I accept You, as my personal Lord and Saviour. Please, come into my life and save my soul from eternal destruction in hell fire, in Jesus' name I pray.


PRAYER POINTS


1.Father, I praise and adore You because You have never failed and You will never fail; thank You for bringing to pass all Your counsel for my life.


2.Father, please, forgive me for bothering You with all my challenges rather than waiting on You to satisfy; forgive me for not trusting You enough.


3.Father, please, help me to wait on You and to worship and patiently stay in Your presence. Make me willing to fellowship with You without being in a hurry to make demands, in Jesus' name.


4.Father, I completely trust You to take care of all my needs and worries; help me to continuously enter Your presence with thanksgiving and praise like never before, in Jesus' name.


5.Father, I praise You for the great and mighty things You are set to do this season in my life, family, Your church and the nations of the world.


6.Father, please, send help to all Your children that are in one form of need or another and satisfy them early with Your mercy, in Jesus' name.


7.Father, please, as many that are yet unsaved in my family and around my neighbourhood, break their heart of stone, and let them yield to the gospel of salvation, in Jesus' name


8.Father, please, while waiting on You, help me to be of good courage, and strengthen my heart, in Jesus' name.


9.Father, please, help me to know more of You, and empower me to do what You want me do always, in Jesus' name.


10.Father, like Abraham, open my spiritual eyes to discern Your presence, and please, help me to wait on You more than ever before, in Jesus' name.


11.Father, send help to Your son, Pastor Enoch Adejare Adeboye in all areas of his life.


Help him to wait on You and to do all You want him to do; bless his life, home, and family (biological and spiritual), and help them to continue to produce sons and daughters to Your glory, in Jesus' name.


11.Father, bless Your son that You have been using to prepare these prayer points, beyond measures, and all those who have been rebroadcasting them, in Jesus' name.


12.Father, let every challenge, hindrance and obstacle of getting these prayer points across to Your children, timely, and on daily basis be removed, in Jesus' name.


13.Your Personal petitions.

( Philippians 4:6)


14..In Jesus' name I pray.

(John 14:13-14; 15:16)

Open Heavens Daily Devotional by Pastor E A ADEBOYE

 OPEN HEAVEN DAILY DEVOTIONAL


DATE: THURSDAY MAY 29TH 2025


THEME:  WAITING ON GOD


MEMORIZE: 

Wait on the LORD: be of good courage, and he shall strengthen thine heart: wait, I say, on the LORD.  Psalm 27:14


READ: Psalms 37:4-7

4 Delight thyself also in the LORD; and he shall give thee the desires of thine heart.


5 Commit thy way unto the LORD; trust also in him; and he shall bring it to pass.


6 And he shall bring forth thy righteousness as the light, and thy judgment as the noonday.


7 Rest in the LORD, and wait patiently for him: fret not thyself because of him who prospereth in his way, because of the man who bringeth wicked devices to pass.


MESSAGE

In Genesis 18:2-8, after Abraham set a meal before his divine visitors, he stood by them and watched them eat. Even though Abraham probably sensed that there was something divine and powerful about them, he did not begin to burden them with tales of his problems, such as his childlessness. Instead, he attended to their needs and waited on them in case they needed anything else. This is the kind of fellow that God goes all the way to provide for- someone who can truly wait on Him and is willing to attend to His needs first. God is looking for genuine worshippers who can patiently stay in His presence and fellowship with Him without being in a hurry to make demands (John 4:23-24). Are you that kind of worshipper?


In life, people wait for different things at different times, such as waiting in a doctor's office for consultations and waiting in traffic for hours. However, despite the fact that many Christians do not mind waiting for hours for these things, they are quick to hurry out of God's presence after spending just a few minutes.


In Psalm 100:4, the Bible says that you must come into God's presence with thanksgiving and praises. In other words, no matter how pressing your needs are, you must not come to God complaining about them; instead, you should give Him thanks and praise first. You must realize that the One in whose presence you are is the King of all kings; you are at His mercy and not the other way around. You must find out the things He wants and attend to them first. What does God want? He loves praises (Psalm 22:3) and thanksgiving (Psalm 100:4). Also, He is looking for people who will intercede for others (Ezekiel 22:30), and

He wants souls John 15:16). When You give Him these things, He will bring laughter to your face. Waiting on the Lord is the secret to getting instant answers and miracles. When you go to a restaurant, a good waiter doesn't give you his favorite food; rather, he waits on you to know what you want, then, he delivers it courteously as fast as he can.


Beloved, have you tried to find out what God wants? When you go to Him in prayer, are you serving Him His delicacies or just dumping your requests on Him? God seeks waiters who will do what He wants, and when He finds them, He goes all the way to satisfy them.


KEY POINT

God goes the extra mile for those who wait on Him.


BIBLE IN ONE YEAR:  Job 9-12


AUTHOR: PASTOR E. A ADEBOYE


HYMN 18: PRAISE TO THE LORD THE ALMIGHTY

1 Praise to the Lord, the Almighty, 

the King of creation!

O my soul, praise him, for he is 

your health and salvation!

Come, all who hear; 

now to his temple draw near,

join me in glad adoration.


2 Praise to the Lord, above 

all things so wondrously reigning;

sheltering you under his wings, 

and so gently sustaining!

Have you not seen all 

that is needful has been

sent by his gracious ordaining?


3 Praise to the Lord, who will 

prosper your work and defend you;

surely his goodness and mercy 

shall daily attend you.

Ponder anew what the Almighty can do,

if with his love he befriends you.


4 Praise to the Lord! O let all 

that is in me adore him!

All that has life and breath, 

come now with praises before him.

Let the Amen sound 

from his people again;

gladly forever adore him

HYMN: 22 - SWEET HOUR OF PRAYER! SWEET HOUR OF PRAYER!


1 Sweet hour of prayer! sweet hour of prayer!

that calls me from a world of care,

and bids me at my Father's throne

make all my wants and wishes known.

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!

the joys I feel, the bliss I share

of those whose anxious spirits burn

with strong desires for thy return!

With such I hasten to the place

where God my Savior shows his face,

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: TUESDAY MAY 27TH 2025


TOPIC: TAKE CHARGE OF YOUR CHILDREN


MEMORISE:

“Train up a child in the way he should go: and when he is old, he will not depart from it.” - (Proverbs 22:6)


READ: DEUTERONOMY 6:1-7 (KJV)


1 Now these are the commandments, the statutes, and the judgments, which the LORD your God commanded to teach you, that ye might do them in the land whither ye go to possess it:


2 That thou mightest fear the LORD thy God, to keep all his statutes and his commandments, which I command thee, thou, and thy son, and thy son's son, all the days of thy life; and that thy days may be prolonged.


3 Hear therefore, O Israel, and observe to do it; that it may be well with thee, and that ye may increase mightily, as the LORD God of thy fathers hath promised thee, in the land that floweth with milk and honey.


4 Hear, O Israel: The LORD our God is one LORD:


5 And thou shalt love the LORD thy God with all thine heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy might.


6 And these words, which I command thee this day, shall be in thine heart:


7 And thou shalt teach them diligently unto thy children, and shalt talk of them when thou sittest in thine house, and when thou walkest by the way, and when thou liest down, and when thou risest up.


MESSAGE:

When Pharaoh said, "I won't let the Israelites go," he wasn't talking about limiting them to a geographical location; he was talking about a different kind of bondage (Exodus 5:2). People who are in the kind of bondage that Pharaoh was referring to have no control over anything, not even their children (Exodus 1:1-22).


If a country's government says that parents cannot raise their children in the way of the Lord, they should know that there is an evil agenda behind it. That is bondage, and they must not allow themselves to remain under it. Parents shouldn’t depend on any government to teach their children. Rather, they should take charge and teach them God's values from His word. If a government insists that parents cannot teach their children what is right, they should move out of that place and go where they will not be under bondage.


Parents should check what their children are being taught in school and ensure they are not influenced to adopt a mindset that is against God's will. They should also check the games they play and the cartoons they watch because, through them, something evil can be positioned to influence their mindsets. If you take charge of the children and youths around you, it will be difficult for them to be influenced by an evil agenda. If you are a parent, you must intentionally create time to teach your children God's ways so that they will know Him for themselves as they grow. Let them spend more time with fellow believers, doing things that will make them grow up into godly adults.


When I moved to Redemption City with my family, my children were schooling far away, and they had to leave the house before 6am on school days so they wouldn't be late for school. In order to have a relationship with them, we often ate our dinner in the car together as we drove back home from their school. As they grew older, I began to take them on evangelistic outreaches. Even when they were in the university, whenever I visited them, I ensured we spent quality time together. We would take walks and discuss the Scriptures; then, I'd guide them with God's principles.


Parents, take charge of your children; don't let the enemy win them over. God will hold you accountable for the children He has given you as He did with Eli (1 Samuel 2:27-31). Rise up to the responsibility of nurturing and training them in His ways. 


 KEY POINT:

Don't expose your children to the enemy by submitting to societal pressures. 


BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: JOB 1-4


AUTHOR PASTOR E A ADEBOYE 


HYMN: 28 - GUIDE ME, O THOU GREAT JEHOVAH 


1 Guide me, O my great Redeemer,

pilgrim through this barren land;

I am weak, but you are mighty;

hold me with your powerful hand.

Bread of heaven, bread of heaven,

feed me now and evermore,

feed me now and evermore.


2 Open now the crystal fountain,

where the healing waters flow.

Let the fire and cloudy pillar

lead me all my journey through.

Strong Deliverer, strong Deliverer,

ever be my strength and shield,

ever be my strength and shield.


3 When I tread the verge of Jordan,

bid my anxious fears subside.

Death of death, and hell's Destruction,

land me safe on Canaan's side.

Songs of praises, songs of praises

I will ever sing to you,

I will ever sing to you.

DATE: MONDAY, 26 MAY 2025


TOPIC: THE POWER OF DILIGENCE


MEMORISE:

“He becometh poor that dealeth with a slack hand: but the hand of the diligent maketh rich.” - Proverbs 10:4.


READ: MATTHEW 25:14-30 (KJV)


14. For the kingdom of heaven is as a man travelling into a far country, who called his own servants, and delivered unto them his goods.


15. And unto one he gave five talents, to another two, and to another one; to every man according to his several ability; and straightway took his journey.


16. Then he that had received the five talents went and traded with the same, and made them other five talents.


17. And likewise he that had received two, he also gained other two.


18. But he that had received one went and digged in the earth, and hid his lord's money.


19. After a long time the lord of those servants cometh, and reckoneth with them.


20. And so he that had received five talents came and brought other five talents, saying, Lord, thou deliveredst unto me five talents: behold, I have gained beside them five talents more.


21. His lord said unto him, Well done, thou good and faithful servant: thou hast been faithful over a few things, I will make thee ruler over many things: enter thou into the joy of thy lord.


22. He also that had received two talents came and said, Lord, thou deliveredst unto me two talents: behold, I have gained two other talents beside them.


23. His lord said unto him, Well done, good and faithful servant; thou hast been faithful over a few things, I will make thee ruler over many things: enter thou into the joy of thy lord.


24. Then he which had received the one talent came and said, Lord, I knew thee that thou art an hard man, reaping where thou hast not sown, and gathering where thou hast not strawed:


25. And I was afraid, and went and hid thy talent in the earth: lo, there thou hast that is thine.


26. His lord answered and said unto him, Thou wicked and slothful servant, thou knewest that I reap where I sowed not, and gather where I have not strawed:


27. Thou oughtest therefore to have put my money to the exchangers, and then at my coming I should have received mine own with usury.


28. Take therefore the talent from him, and give it unto him which hath ten talents.


29. For unto every one that hath shall be given, and he shall have abundance: but from him that hath not shall be taken away even that which he hath.


30. And cast ye the unprofitable servant into outer darkness: there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth.


MESSAGE:

Proverbs 22:29 says, "Seest thou a man diligent in his business? he shall stand before kings; he shall not stand before mean men." Diligence means doing the right things to achieve a goal in an excellent, timely, and consistent manner. In Mark 10:46-52, Bartimaeus didn't only cry once; he kept crying until Jesus answered him. Likewise, the woman with the issue of blood kept pressing forward until she finally got to Jesus (Luke 8:43-48). If you want to succeed at anything in life, you must be diligent and keep persevering despite obstacles.


I once gave a project to someone at the beginning of a year, and I intended to give him another one as soon as he was done. He was meant to complete the first project within three months; however, by September, he was still struggling to complete it, and there was no way I would have given him another one. God had opened a door of financial blessings to him, but he refused to be diligent.


In today's Bible reading, Jesus told the parable of three servants who received talents from their master. Two of the servants were diligent, and they doubled what they received. When the master returned, he commended the two diligent servants and rewarded them handsomely. He said to them, "Well done, good and faithful servant; thou hast been faithful over a few things, I will make thee ruler over many things: enter thou into the joy of thy lord."


In the same parable, you also see the direct consequences of laziness. The servant with one talent hid it and refused to trade with it. The consequence of not being diligent was not only the loss of his talent but also sorrow for the rest of his life. While the diligent servant who started with five ended up with eleven, the lazy servant ended up with sorrow. Jesus said, "For whosoever hath, to him shall be given, and he shall have more abundance: but whosoever hath not, from him shall be taken away even that he hath" (Matthew 13:12). Anyone who has the virtue of diligence will have more, but those who lack this virtue will lose even what they have.


Beloved, diligence is powerful; it will position you for greatness and more abundance. Whatever you do according to God's will, do it diligently with all your strength. Don't delay, and don't quit because of limitations or obstacles. I pray that God will reward your diligence with His abundance, in Jesus' name. 


ACTION POINT:

Be diligent in all that you do. 


BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: ESTHER 6-10


AUTHOR: PASTOR E. A. ADEBOYE 


HYMN 4: TO THE WORK! TO THE WORK! WE ARE SERVANTS OF GOD 


1.  To the work! to the work! we are servants of God,

Let us follow the path that our Master has trod;

With the balm of His counsel our strength to renew,

Let us do with our might what our hands find to do.


Refrain:

Toiling on, toiling on,

Toiling on, toiling on:

Let us hope, let us watch,

And labor till the Master comes.


2.  To the work! to the work! let the hungry be fed;

To the fountain of life let the weary be led;

In the cross and its banner our glory shall be,

While we herald the tidings, "Salvation is free!"


3.  To the work! to the work! there is labor for all;

For the kingdom of darkness and error shall fall;

And the name of Jehovah exalted shall be,

In the loud-swelling chorus, "Salvation is free!"


4.  To the work! to the work! in the strength of the Lord,

And a robe and a crown shall our labor reward;

When the home of the faithful our dwelling shall be,

And we shout with the ransomed, "Salvation is free!"
