Open Heavens Wednesday September 30 WAY OUT OF EMBARRASSMENT   Memorise: And I will bring the blind by a way that they knew not; I will lead them in paths that they have not known: I will make darkness light before them, and crooked things straight. These things will I do unto them, and not forsake them. Isaiah 42:16   Read: John 2:1-11 1  And the third day there was a marriage in Cana of Galilee; and the mother of Jesus was there: 2  And both Jesus was called, and his disciples, to the marriage. 3  And when they wanted wine, the mother of Jesus saith unto him, They have no wine. 4  Jesus saith unto her, Woman, what have I to do with thee? mine hour is not yet come. 5  His mother saith unto the servants, Whatsoever he saith unto you, do it. 6  And there were set there six waterpots of stone, after the manner of the purifying of the Jews, containing two or three firkins apiece. 7  Jesus saith unto them, Fill the waterpots w...

Tuesday September 29 By, Pastor E.A Adeboye. ONLY HIS NAME   Memorise: That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth; Philippians 2:10   Read: Philippians 2:9-11 9  Wherefore God also hath highly exalted him, and given him a name which is above every name: 10  That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth; 11  And that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.   Message The desire and plan of God is for all His children to be deliverance ministers (Mark16:17). He wants us to exercise His dominion on earth, so that if demons are obstructing the lives, destinies and progress of anybody, when they meet anyone of us, they would be freed. However, only very few believers are actively doing this. Any believer who wants to walk in the reality of the plan ...

Open Heavens   RUN, DON’T REST   Memorise: For here have we no continuing city, but we seek one to come. Hebrews 13:14   Read: 1 Kings 13:7-14 7  And the king said unto the man of God, Come home with me, and refresh thyself, and I will give thee a reward. 8  And the man of God said unto the king, If thou wilt give me half thine house, I will not go in with thee, neither will I eat bread nor drink water in this place: 9  For so was it charged me by the word of the LORD, saying, Eat no bread, nor drink water, nor turn again by the same way that thou camest. 10  So he went another way, and returned not by the way that he came to Bethel. 11  Now there dwelt an old prophet in Bethel; and his sons came and told him all the works that the man of God had done that day in Bethel: the words which he had spoken unto the king, them they told also to their father. 12  And their father said unto them, What way went he? For his...

Open Heavens September 27   FROM DEBTOR TO CREDITOR   Memorise: For he shall deliver the needy when he crieth; the poor also, and him that hath no helper. Psalm 72:12   Read: Psalm 72:10-14 10  The kings of Tarshish and of the isles shall bring presents: the kings of Sheba and Seba shall offer gifts. 11  Yea, all kings shall fall down before him: all nations shall serve him. 12  For he shall deliver the needy when he crieth; the poor also, and him that hath no helper. 13  He shall spare the poor and needy, and shall save the souls of the needy. 14  He shall redeem their soul from deceit and violence: and precious shall their blood be in his sight.     Message When Jesus went into a synagogue one day, He met a man with a withered hand. When a hand is withered, it means it has died and totally dried up. In spite of the withered state of this hand, that encounter with Jesus restored life to it (Mark 3:1-5). There are s...

Friday September 25   BEWARE OF MANIPULATORS   Memorise: A prudent man foreseeth the evil, and hideth himself: but the simple pass on, and are punished. Proverbs 22:3   Read: Proverbs 22:1-5 1  A good name is rather to be chosen than great riches, and loving favour rather than silver and gold. 2  The rich and poor meet together: the LORD is the maker of them all. 3  A prudent man foreseeth the evil, and hideth himself: but the simple pass on, and are punished. 4  By humility and the fear of the LORD are riches, and honour, and life. 5  Thorns and snares are in the way of the froward: he that doth keep his soul shall be far from them.     Message When you are popular and celebrated on account of your position or service in the kingdom of God, beware and avoid every temptation to use what you have received against the will of God. If you are not careful, you may fall into a trap and become another example, like t...

Open Heavens   INSTRUCTION RESCUES   Memorise: He sent his word, and healed them, and delivered them from their destructions. Psalm 107:20   Read: Proverbs 19:20-21 20  Hear counsel, and receive instruction, that thou mayest be wise in thy latter end. 21  There are many devices in a man's heart; nevertheless the counsel of the LORD, that shall stand.     Message If you experience a loss at any point in life, know that it’s a time to stay calm and not a time to lose heart. If you can wait to receive specific instructions from the Lord, it will expedite the recovery of your loss. The reason why many losses of God’s children have not been recovered is because they have not found time to seek the face of God on the matter. As you seek God’s face concerning those good things you have lost, the Lord will give you a word that will lead to their recovery.   Many years ago, while we were building the first big auditor...

WEDNESDAY SEPTEMBER 23 2015. THEME : THE WAY OUT. MEMORISE : Heal the sick, cleanse the lepers, raise the dead, cast out devils: freely ye have received, freely give. MATTHEW 10 : 8. READ : MATTHEW 10 : 5 – 8. 5 These twelve Jesus sent forth, and commanded them, saying, Go not into the way of the Gentiles, and into any city of the Samaritans enter ye not: 6 But go rather to the lost sheep of the house of Israel. 7 And as ye go, preach, saying, The kingdom of heaven is at hand. 8 Heal the sick, cleanse the lepers, raise the dead, cast out devils: freely ye have received, freely give. BIBLE IN ONE YEAR : LEVITICUS 10 – 11 AND 1 CORINTHIANS 7 : 17 – 40. Our Lord Jesus Christ has many names and titles. The purpose of these names is to enlighten the eyes of our understanding to the reality of His person. One of such names is The Way. In John 14 : 6, the Lord Jesus revealed this truth about Himself to us : “Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the trut...

WHEN PIGS ARE WISER Memorise And always, night and day, he was in the mountains, and in the tombs, crying, and cutting himself with stones. Mark 5:5 Read Mark 5:1-13 1  And they came over unto the other side of the sea, into the country of the Gadarenes. 2  And when he was come out of the ship, immediately there met him out of the tombs a man with an unclean spirit, 3  Who had his dwelling among the tombs; and no man could bind him, no, not with chains: 4  Because that he had been often bound with fetters and chains, and the chains had been plucked asunder by him, and the fetters broken in pieces: neither could any man tame him. 5  And always, night and day, he was in the mountains, and in the tombs, crying, and cutting himself with stones. 6  But when he saw Jesus afar off, he ran and worshipped him, 7  And cried with a loud voice, and said, What have I to do with thee, Jesus, thou Son of the most high God? I adjure thee by God, that thou...

Sunday September 20   THE BEGINNING OF BEGINNINGS   Memorise: I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the ending, saith the Lord, which is, and which was, and which is to come, the Almighty. Revelation 1:8   Read: John 1:1-3 1  In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. 2  The same was in the beginning with God. 3  All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made.     Message The Almighty God is so great, mighty, powerful, glorious and all-knowing that He is unlimited, unlike mortal men. He has access to the past, present and future of every event. Jesus in Revelation 1:8 declared: “I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the ending, saith the Lord, which is, and which was, and which is to come, the Almighty.” The word “Alpha” in this declaration refers to the beginning of beginnings. When everything began, it was in H...

Saturday September 19 DESTINIES CAN CHANGE   Memorise: Let us therefore fear, lest, a promise being left us of entering into his rest, any of you should seem to come short of it. Hebrews 4:1   Read: Hebrews 3:15-19 15  While it is said, To day if ye will hear his voice, harden not your hearts, as in the provocation. 16  For some, when they had heard, did provoke: howbeit not all that came out of Egypt by Moses. 17  But with whom was he grieved forty years? was it not with them that had sinned, whose carcases fell in the wilderness? 18  And to whom sware he that they should not enter into his rest, but to them that believed not? 19  So we see that they could not enter in because of unbelief.     Message One of the privileges that being in Christ grants to you is that your present situation and your past life cannot hinder your God-given destiny. God has decided your destination even before you were born. Because you a...

Friday September 18   POPULARITY CAN EBB   Memorise: There is no wisdom nor understanding nor counsel against the LORD. Proverbs 21:30   Read: Numbers 16:1-3 1  Now Korah, the son of Izhar, the son of Kohath, the son of Levi, and Dathan and Abiram, the sons of Eliab, and On, the son of Peleth, sons of Reuben, took men: 2  And they rose up before Moses, with certain of the children of Israel, two hundred and fifty princes of the assembly, famous in the congregation, men of renown: 3  And they gathered themselves together against Moses and against Aaron, and said unto them, Ye take too much upon you, seeing all the congregation are holy, every one of them, and the LORD is among them: wherefore then lift ye up yourselves above the congregation of the LORD?     Maessage Every race has its rules. Crossing the finish line without following the rules will bring you no reward. Service to God in His vineyard also follows this princ...

Thursday September 17 RECEIVE DIVINE INSTRUCTIONS   Memorise: Receive, I pray thee, the law from his mouth, and lay up his words in thine heart. Job 22:22   Read: Job 22:21-24 21  Acquaint now thyself with him, and be at peace: thereby good shall come unto thee. 22  Receive, I pray thee, the law from his mouth, and lay up his words in thine heart. 23  If thou return to the Almighty, thou shalt be built up, thou shalt put away iniquity far from thy tabernacles. 24  Then shalt thou lay up gold as dust, and the gold of Ophir as the stones of the brooks.     Message Due to the advent of sin and the activities of our adversary, we are faced with different challenges of life from day to day. The loss of assets and of persons dear to us is one of those challenges which our adversary, the devil, throws at us to destabilise us and ultimately make us lose our faith. But thank God that provision has been made in the package of salvat...

Wednesday September 16 THE REAL FIX YOU NEED!   Memorise: Look unto me, and be ye saved, all the ends of the earth: for I am God, and there is none else. Isaiah 45:22   Read: Isaiah 45:20-25 20  Assemble yourselves and come; draw near together, ye that are escaped of the nations: they have no knowledge that set up the wood of their graven image, and pray unto a god that cannot save. 21  Tell ye, and bring them near; yea, let them take counsel together: who hath declared this from ancient time? who hath told it from that time? have not I the LORD? and there is no God else beside me; a just God and a Saviour; there is none beside me. 22  Look unto me, and be ye saved, all the ends of the earth: for I am God, and there is none else. 23  I have sworn by myself, the word is gone out of my mouth in righteousness, and shall not return, That unto me every knee shall bow, every tongue shall swear. 24  Surely, shall one say, in the LORD have I righteo...

Tuesday September 15 AFRAID OF YOUR MIRROR IMAGE?   Memorise: For if any be a hearer of the word, and not a doer, he is like unto a man beholding his natural face in a glass: James 1:23   Read: James 1:22-25 22  But be ye doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving your own selves. 23  For if any be a hearer of the word, and not a doer, he is like unto a man beholding his natural face in a glass: 24  For he beholdeth himself, and goeth his way, and straightway forgetteth what manner of man he was. 25  But whoso looketh into the perfect law of liberty, and continueth therein, he being not a forgetful hearer, but a doer of the work, this man shall be blessed in his deed.   Message The word of God is very central to our life as believers. In the very last admonition of Moses to the children of Israel, He said the word of God is their very life (Deuteronomy 32:46-47). For believers in Christ today, the word of God is also our...

Monday September 14 THE RIGHT ROOT   Memorise: 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. Mark 4:17   Read: Mark 4:16-17 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 a marathon, not everyone who starts the race reaches the finish line. Several people drop out of the race due to one reason or the other. In the same way, several people are dropping out of the race to meet Christ the Redeemer on the last day. The parable of the sower reveals some of the reasons why people will not get to the finish line of the Christian race. One of such reasons is ...

Sunday September 13   HE GRAFTS IN   Memorise: Thou wilt say then, The branches were broken off, that I might be grafted in. Romans 11:19   Read: Romans 11:16-20 16  For if the firstfruit be holy, the lump is also holy: and if the root be holy, so are the branches. 17  And if some of the branches be broken off, and thou, being a wild olive tree, wert graffed in among them, and with them partakest of the root and fatness of the olive tree; 18  Boast not against the branches. But if thou boast, thou bearest not the root, but the root thee. 19  Thou wilt say then, The branches were broken off, that I might be graffed in. 20  Well; because of unbelief they were broken off, and thou standest by faith. Be not highminded, but fear:   Message Grafting is an agricultural technique used for propagating fruit trees. It involves cutting a section of the stem of one tree and inserting it into the stock of another tree. A part of ...

Saturday September 12   YOUR DESTINY IS UNSTOPPABLE   Memorise: Thou wilt say then unto me, Why doth he yet find fault? For who hath resisted his will? Romans 9:19   Read: Jeremiah 1:4-7 4  Then the word of the LORD came unto me, saying, 5  Before I formed thee in the belly I knew thee; and before thou camest forth out of the womb I sanctified thee, and I ordained thee a prophet unto the nations. 6  Then said I, Ah, Lord GOD! behold, I cannot speak: for I am a child. 7  But the LORD said unto me, Say not, I am a child: for thou shalt go to all that I shall send thee, and whatsoever I command thee thou shalt speak.   Message If God has a destination for you, your present situation cannot stop Him. The circumstances of life surrounding young Esther as a slave girl did not stop her from becoming queen of a very powerful kingdom. In the Name of Jesus Christ, your present circumstances shall not stop you from arriving at your G...

Friday September 11 SCHEMING: NOT ALLOWED   Memorise: But all these worketh that one and the selfsame Spirit, dividing to every man severally as he will. 1 Corinthians 12:11   Read: Numbers 16:8-14 8  And Moses said unto Korah, Hear, I pray you, ye sons of Levi: 9  Seemeth it but a small thing unto you, that the God of Israel hath separated you from the congregation of Israel, to bring you near to himself to do the service of the tabernacle of the LORD, and to stand before the congregation to minister unto them? 10  And he hath brought thee near to him, and all thy brethren the sons of Levi with thee: and seek ye the priesthood also? 11  For which cause both thou and all thy company are gathered together against the LORD: and what is Aaron, that ye murmur against him? 12  And Moses sent to call Dathan and Abiram, the sons of Eliab: which said, We will not come up: 13  Is it a small thing that thou hast brought us up out of a...

Thursday September 10 GOD: AN ENCOURAGER   Memorise: I will hear what God the LORD will speak: for he will speak peace unto his people, and to his saints: but let them not turn again to folly. Psalm 85:8   Read: Psalm 85:7-9 7  Shew us thy mercy, O LORD, and grant us thy salvation. 8  I will hear what God the LORD will speak: for he will speak peace unto his people, and to his saints: but let them not turn again to folly. 9  Surely his salvation is nigh them that fear him; that glory may dwell in our land.       Message “Wait on the LORD: be of good courage, and he shall strengthen thine heart: wait, I say, on the LORD.” Psalm 27:14 After you have suffered a major loss, or when everything around you appears gloomy and bleak, turn your focus on the Lord. When those you look up to fail you, look up to God. He is the only One who will never fail you. Have your friends in the Christian race turned their backs on God? ...

Wednesday September 9   TRUE SATISFACTION   Memorise: And ye are complete in him, which is the head of all principality and power: Colossians 2:10   Read: John 7:37-39 37  In the last day, that great day of the feast, Jesus stood and cried, saying, If any man thirst, let him come unto me, and drink. 38  He that believeth on me, as the scripture hath said, out of his belly shall flow rivers of living water. 39  (But this spake he of the Spirit, which they that believe on him should receive: for the Holy Ghost was not yet given; because that Jesus was not yet glorified.)   Message Our Lord Jesus Christ is so awesome; not only does He provide peace, joy, promotion, victory and rest, He also gives satisfaction. The Bible in John7:37 says: “In the last day, that great day of the feast, Jesus stood and cried, saying, If any man thirst, let him come unto me, and drink.” Jesus Christ is the true thirst-quencher. He kn...

Tuesday September 8 DEMONS HINDER DESTINIES   Memorise: But he answered and said, Every plant, which my heavenly Father hath not planted, shall be rooted up. Matthew 15:13   Read: Luke 8:1-3 1  And it came to pass afterward, that he went throughout every city and village, preaching and shewing the glad tidings of the kingdom of God: and the twelve were with him, 2  And certain women, which had been healed of evil spirits and infirmities, Mary called Magdalene, out of whom went seven devils, 3  And Joanna the wife of Chuza Herod's steward, and Susanna, and many others, which ministered unto him of their substance.   Message As a believer in Christ, one of the traits that should differentiate you from an ordinary fellow is the ability to cast out demons (Mark 16:17). However, if demons are tormenting you and you fail to do something about them, don’t expect God to do anything either. He has already done what He should do by g...
