TOPIC: THE LORD IS MY DELIVERER


MEMORISE

“But I am poor and needy; yet the Lord thinketh upon me: thou art my help and my deliverer; make no tarrying, O my God.” - (Psalm 40:17)


READ: Mark 7:32-37 (KJV)

32 And they bring unto him one that was deaf, and had an impediment in his speech; and they beseech him to put his hand upon him.


33 And he took him aside from the multitude, and put his fingers into his ears, and he spit, and touched his tongue;


34 And looking up to heaven, he sighed, and saith unto him, Ephphatha, that is, Be opened.


35 And straightway his ears were opened, and the string of his tongue was loosed, and he spake plain.


36 And he charged them that they should tell no man: but the more he charged them, so much the more a great deal they published it;


37 And were beyond measure astonished, saying, He hath done all things well: he maketh both the deaf to hear, and the dumb to speak.


MESSAGE

Luke 13:11-13 tells us of a woman who was bent for eighteen years and couldn't walk uprightly. She must have visited many doctors and used different medications, all to no avail. However, when she encountered Jesus, she was set free immediately. There are some sicknesses that even the best doctors cannot treat. If you are experiencing any lingering sickness, you need just one touch from the Great Deliverer to make you whole.


When the devil afflicts a fellow with an infirmity, he adds a lot of sorrowful things to the person's life. For example, besides suffering from leprosy, lepers also suffer isolation, which might lead to depression, especially if they are abandoned by their relatives and friends. If they had thriving businesses, the businesses might automatically shut down because some people might not want to do business with them. In Luke 17:12-19, there were ten lepers who needed to be delivered from leprosy. When the Mighty Deliverer came on the scene, they were cleansed, and one of them, who returned to give thanks, was made whole. I believe this meant that he recovered everything he had lost in the past. This is what the Lord can do for you when He is your deliverer. He can restore everything the enemy might have stolen from you as if he never came near you at all. I pray that God will show Himself mighty on your behalf, deliver you from every affliction and oppression you might be experiencing, and make you whole, in Jesus' name.


We have a deliverer; He is called the Lord of Hosts (Psalm 24:10) and the Lord Mighty in Battle (Psalm 24:8). He can deliver anyone, and nobody can pluck His children from His hands.


The LORD is my rock, and my fortress, and my deliverer; my God, my strength, in whom I will trust; my buckler, and the horn of my salvation, and my high tower. I will call upon the LORD, who is worthy to be praised: so shall I be saved from mine enemies. (Psalm 18:2-3)


Beloved, if you haven't surrendered your life to Jesus Christ, you are His enemy, and it is a fearful thing to fall into His hands (Hebrews 10:31) because no one can deliver anyone from Him (Isaiah 43:13). Surrender your life to Him today so He can become your Great Deliverer. If you are already a child of God and are still in any form of bondage, I pray that the Great Deliverer will deliver you completely, in Jesus' name. 


KEY POINT

God can deliver anyone, and nobody can deliver out of His hands. 


AUTHOR: Pastor E. A. Adeboye 


BIBLE IN ONE YEAR

Luke 9 - 10


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

'Til 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, 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 HEAVEN DAILY DEVOTIONAL


DATE: FRIDAY OCTOBER 24TH 2025


THEME: THE LORD IS MY SONG


MEMORISE

The LORD is my strength and song, and is become my salvation.   

Psalm 118:14


READ: Psalms 126:1-6

1 When the LORD turned again the captivity of Zion, we were like them that dream.


2 Then was our mouth filled with laughter, and our tongue with singing: then said they among the heathen, The LORD hath done great things for them.


3 The LORD hath done great things for us; whereof we are glad.


4 Turn again our captivity, O LORD, as the streams in the south.


5 They that sow in tears shall reap in joy.


6 He that goeth forth and weepeth, bearing precious seed, shall doubtless come again with rejoicing, bringing his sheaves with him.


MESSAGE

It is wonderful to know Jesus and trust in Him. Over the past few days, I have been discussing the benefits of having Jesus as your Lord. Those who are still yet to totally surrender to His Lordship are depriving themselves of the tremendous blessings of being children of the Most High God. People love good songs and love to sing new songs. When you make Jesus your Lord, He will not only give you a new song, but He will also become your song. He will not just fill your mouth with laughter; He will become your laughter and the source of your joy. After God brought the children of Israel out of Egypt and led them through the Red Sea, they began to sing a new song to the Lord:


The LORD is my strength and song and he is become my salvation: he is my God, and I will prepare him an habitation; my father’s God, and I will exalt him.  Exodus 15:2


When God becomes your song, He will fill your mouth with joy and laughter. When He became Sarah’s song, He filled her mouth with laughter, and people laughed along with her (Genesis 21:6). I pray that everyone who has mocked you will laugh with you, in Jesus’ name.

When the devil thinks he has the upper hand or when he thinks he has done too much damage for things to ever become good in a Christian’s life again, such a Christian should know that God is about to become his or her song. When the devil attacked Job and his family, he thought he had the final say. However, God came through for Job and gave him double of all he had lost (Job 42:12).

When God becomes your song, He will fill your mouth with songs of victory. When He wanted to destroy the wall of Jericho, He put a loud shout of victory in the mouth of His people.


So the people shouted when the priests blew with the trumpets: and it came to pass, when the people heard the sound of the trumpet, and the people shouted with a great shout, that the wall fell down flat, so that the people went up into the city, every man straight before him, and they took the city.  Joshua 6:20


Beloved, God wants to become your song. He wants to continually give you new songs of joy and victory. Surrender your life completely to him, and your days will be full of laughter and singing.


KEY POINT

When you surrender your life completely to Jesus, He will become your song.


BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: Luke 7-8


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: THE LORD IS MY KEEPER


MEMORISE

“My God hath sent his angel, and hath shut the lions' mouths, that they have not hurt me: forasmuch as before him innocency was found in me; and also before thee, O king, have I done no hurt.” - (Daniel 6:22)


READ: Psalm 121:1-8 (KJV)


1 I will lift up mine eyes unto the hills, from whence cometh my help.


2 My help cometh from the Lord, which made heaven and earth.


3 He will not suffer thy foot to be moved: he that keepeth thee will not slumber.


4 Behold, he that keepeth Israel shall neither slumber nor sleep.


5 The Lord is thy keeper: the Lord is thy shade upon thy right hand.


6 The sun shall not smite thee by day, nor the moon by night.


7 The Lord shall preserve thee from all evil: he shall preserve thy soul.


8 The Lord shall preserve thy going out and thy coming in from this time forth, and even for evermore.


MESSAGE

When you make Jesus your Lord, you will enjoy divine preservation. Today's Bible reading says that He who keeps Israel neither sleeps nor slumbers. When God keeps a fellow, nothing and nobody can harm him or her (Romans 8:31).


Years ago, one of my daughters was serving the Nigerian government in Port Harcourt, a state capital in Southern Nigeria, as part of the mandatory national youth service programme for graduates of tertiary institutions. At that time, a new highway had just been constructed along the route leading to Port Harcourt from Lagos, and vehicles would drive on it at breakneck speeds because the road was really smooth. One day, she was travelling from Lagos to Port Harcourt and she sat at the back of a public vehicle. Suddenly, the car's front tyre ruptured, and the car began to somersault due to its speed. She shouted, "Jesus!" as the car somersaulted the first time, and unseen hands picked her up from the vehicle through the window and sat her down by the highway. She watched the car somersault five more times before it stopped. People rushed to the scene and saw her sitting by the highway. When they asked her how she got there and she told them she was in the car that had just had an accident, they couldn't believe her. This is what happens when the Lord puts His angels on guard over your life at all times (Psalm 91:11).


When the Lord is your keeper, He will keep your foot from being moved (Psalm 121:3). When people are complaining about the state of the economy, for instance, you won't be moved because the Lord is your keeper. Only Christians who have made Jesus their Lord and Saviour will have no worries in the midst of dangerous situations, like Daniel in the den of hungry lions. God sent His angel to shut the mouths of the lions and prevented them from harming Daniel because he had made God his Lord, and he was God's responsibility. The next day, those who had made political power their lord were thrown into the same den, and the lions ate them up (Daniel 6:16-24).


People who don't have Jesus as their Lord are open to the devil's attacks. Have you genuinely surrendered your life to the Lord? If you haven't, please do so today. I pray that the Lord will keep you in all your ways with His mighty hands, in Jesus' name. 


REFLECTION

When you make Jesus your Lord, you will enjoy divine protection. 


AUTHOR: Pastor E. A. Adeboye 


BIBLE IN ONE YEAR

Luke 5 - 6


HYMN 19 - ROCK OF AGES, CLEFT FOR ME


1. Rock of Ages, cleft for me, Let me hide myself in Thee! Let the water and the blood, From Thy riven side which flowed, Be of sin the double cure; Cleanse me from its guilt and power.


2. Not the labours of my hands, can fulfill thy law's demands could zeal no respite know, could my tears forever flow, all for sin could not atone, thou must save and thou alone.


3. Nothing in my hand I bring, simply to thy cross I cling naked, come to thee for dress, helpless, look to thee fir grace foul to the fountain fly wash me saviour or I die.


4. While I draw this fleeting breath, when my eyelids close in death, when I soar to worlds unknown, see thee on thy judgment throne, rock of ages cleft for me, let me hide myself in thee.

TOPIC: THE LORD IS MY STRENGTH


MEMORISE

“The LORD is my strength and song, and he is become my salvation: he is my God, and I will prepare him an habitation; my father's God, and I will exalt him.” - (Exodus 15:2)


READ: Psalm 20:1-4 (KJV)

1 The Lord hear thee in the day of trouble; the name of the God of Jacob defend thee;


2 Send thee help from the sanctuary, and strengthen thee out of Zion;


3 Remember all thy offerings, and accept thy burnt sacrifice; Selah.


4 Grant thee according to thine own heart, and fulfil all thy counsel.


MESSAGE

When you make Jesus your Lord, you will never lack strength. Psalm 84:5 says, "Blessed is the man whose strength is in thee; in whose heart are the ways of them." When people are complaining of tiredness and weakness, a fellow who has made Jesus Christ his or her Lord will keep going from strength to strength.


They go from strength to strength, every one of them in Zion appeareth before God. (Psalm 84:7)


If you are a child of God, every time you come before Him, He gives you a greater dose of strength than the one you had before. Nobody appears before God and leaves weak and weary. If you come before God discouraged, you will leave encouraged. If you come tired, you will leave strengthened. God's presence supplies endless strength to weary hearts. In areas where you are weak, your Lord will make His strength available to you if you wait on Him. Isaiah 40:29-31 says:


He giveth power to the faint; and to them that have no might he increaseth strength. Even the youths shall faint and be weary, and the young men shall utterly fall: But they that wait upon the LORD shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; and they shall walk, and not faint.


Another way God strengthens His children is by sending good news their way so that their hearts will be filled with joy. I pray that God will send you good news that will strengthen your heart, in Jesus' name.


I remember when we were building the Redemption Camp (now Redemption City), we built a house from its foundation and completed it in just seven days. I was constantly supervising the construction, but I didn't feel tired in any way. This was because I was excited about what God was doing, and the Bible says that the joy of the Lord is our strength.


...for this day is holy unto our Lord: neither be ye sorry; for the joy of the LORD is your strength. (Nehemiah 8:10)


The joy of the Lord supplies abundant strength, and strength is the ability to do whatever you want to do. When you have strength, you will be able to do everything your heart desires to do for God. I pray for you today that the Lord will strengthen you and fill your heart with joy, in Jesus' name. 


PRAYER POINT

Father, please let me hear good news that will strengthen my heart in You today, in Jesus' name. 


AUTHOR: PASTOR E. A. ADEBOYE 


BIBLE IN ONE YEAR

Luke 3 - 4


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 

Ev'rything to God in prayer. Oh, what peace we often forfeit, Oh, what needless pain we bear- All because we do not carry Ev'rything 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 ev'ry weakness, 

Take it to the Lord in prayer. 


3. Are we weak and heavy laden, 

Cumbered with a load of care? 

Precious Saviour, still our refuge, Take it to the Lord in prayer. Do thy friends despise, forsake thee? Take it to the Lord in prayer. In His arms He'll take and shield thee, Thou wilt find a solace there.
