OPEN HEAVENS DAILY DEVOTIONAL...
DATE : SATURDAY 1 AUGUST 2015
THEME : FAVOUR FROM A DISTANCE
Memorise:
And the Gentiles shall come to thy light, and kings to the brightness of thy rising.
Isaiah 60:3;
Read: Exodus: 3:1-4,
1 NOW Moses kept the flock of Jethro his father in law, the priest of Midian: and
he led the flock to the backside of the desert, and came to the mountain of God,
even to Horeb.
2 And the angel of the LORD appeared unto him in a flame of fire out of the midst
of a bush: and he looked, and, behold, the bush burned with fire, and the bush was
not consumed.
3 And Moses said, I will now turn aside, and see this great sight, why the bush is
not burnt.
4 And when the LORD saw that he turned aside to see, God called unto him out of
the midst of the bush, and said, Moses, Moses. And he said, Here am I.
Message
When your day of favour dawns, favour will locate you wherever you are.
Sometimes ago, we went to hold a crusade in Italy. While we were preaching, the
message was being aired over the radio. Suddenly, the Lord said that there was a
man listening to me via the radio who was impotent. The Lord asked me to tell
the fellow that his virility was restored. Meanwhile, the man in question was lying
on his bed in his house, far away from where we were. As soon as he heard the
word, his manhood was restored. Favour located him at home. By the time he
tried to locate us at the crusade ground, we had closed and left for the hotel
where we were staying. When he got to the hotel, he burst into our room saying
he was the one whose case was addressed, and that he had received his miracle.
This season, favour will locate you right where you are. Right in your home, in
your living room, on your bed, favour will visit you in Jesus’ Name.
Favour can always locate you, even from a distance. After Moses had spent about
forty years in exile in Midian, God sent favour to locate him at the backside of the
desert, in the form of an angel manifested as a burning bush which was not
consumed. I also have experience God’s favour in a foreign land. The first time I
travelled outside Africa, I went to Canada for the World Conference of Applied
Mathematicians. I knew no one there and had no idea what kind of food I would
be eating there. Meanwhile, my wife was at home praying that God should take
care of me. At about the same time, someone was looking through the list of
mathematicians who had come for the conference. As he checked, he saw my
name, Enoch Adeboye. He mused that it could be a French name, even though he
had every reason to believe it is a Nigerian name. He decided to check up on me.
On his way to my hotel room, this man resolved to speak to me in Yoruba
language; he said to himself that if I replied, then I must be Nigerian. He
eventually got to my door and knocked. “Who is it?” I asked. “Emi ni ( I am the
one)” he replied. “Wole (come in)”, I responded. Before that day was over, I was
eating pounded yam right there in Canada. Favour can locate you outside the
shores of your land. God can use somebody you do not know to favour you. Are
you away from home right now and in need of favour? God will cause favour to
locate you! Someone you do not know will favour you today in Jesus’ Name.
Prayer Point:
Father, let Your favour locate me today from the four corners of the earth.

OPEN HEAVENS DAILY DEVOTIONAL...
DATE : FRIDAY 31st JULY 2015

THEME : PARTAKING IN A DIVINE AGENDA

Memorise:
And he shall reign over the house of Jacob for ever; and of his kingdom there shall be no end. Luke 1:33

Read: Luke 1:31-33
31 And, behold, thou shalt conceive in thy womb, and bring forth a son, and shalt call his name JESUS.
32 He shall be great, and shall be called the Son of the Highest: and the Lord God shall give unto him the throne of his father David:
33 And he shall reign over the house of Jacob for ever; and of his kingdom there shall be no end.

BIBLE IN ONE YEAR : NEHEMIAH 4:1-6:14 and JOHN 7:1-24

Message
When God says He will do a thing, He is telling you what He has already done in the realm of the Spirit. It is already a settled matter. If He says He will give you peace, it means that peace is already released to you. Every good promise that God has made to you shall become reality shortly in Jesus' Name. When Jesus made this promise in Matthew 16:18:
"And I say also unto thee, That thou art Peter, and upon this rock I will build my church; and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it."
He was simply saying something He had already done. He was telling Peter what He had already finished, long before Peter was born. Luke 1:33 declares that there is no end to the increase of God's kingdom. This means that whether the devil and the world like it or not, the Church will keep marching on. It also means that even when you do not know how to access the funds you need to build that local assembly to the glory of God's Name, God knows. He has already provided for all the churches that would be built in His Name, even before the foundation of the world was laid. This is why I know that you will not be stranded or frustrated over the assignment of enlarging God's kingdom on earth. God's provision for your assignment shall be evident this season in Jesus' Name.

Moreover, it is important to note that since God has set out to build His church, if you cooperate with Him, He can use you to build His kingdom. Building His church is God's agenda. God is looking for those who will cooperate with Him to establish His agenda of building His church. Are you willing to partner with Him? Long ago, God decided that He would take a general from the Syrian army and turn him into a worshipper of Jehovah (2 Kings 5:1-19). In today's setting, it is like saying God wants to take the Sultan of Sokoto (the traditional head of Muslims in Nigeria) and turn him into an evangelist or a pastor. Some people will say this is impossible, but with God nothing shall be impossible (Luke 1:37). Once He has set out His plan, and His Word has gone forth, He will do it. To get Naaman to become a worshipper of the Living God, the Lord needed someone to cooperate with Him. It was a housemaid in Naaman's household who told her mistress that there was a prophet in Israel who could cure her husband's leprosy. Like this handmaid, are you ready to cooperate with the Lord in building His church?

Action Point:
Every child of God has a role to play in building the kingdom of God. So, don't just sit on the fence!

THEME: RESPONSE TO DISCOURAGEMENT

Memorise:
Have not I commanded thee? Be strong and of a good courage; be not afraid, neither be thou dismayed: for the LORD thy God is with thee whithersoever thou goest. Joshua 1:9

Read: 1 Samuel 30:3-8
3 So David and his men came to the city, and, behold, it was burned with fire; and their wives, and their sons, and their daughters, were taken captives.
4 Then David and the people that were with him lifted up their voice and wept, until they had no more power to weep.
5 And David's two wives were taken captives, Ahinoam the Jezreelitess, and Abigail the wife of Nabal the Carmelite.
6 And David was greatly distressed; for the people spake of stoning him, because the soul of all the people was grieved, every man for his sons and for his daughters: but David encouraged himself in the LORD his God.
7 And David said to Abiathar the priest, Ahimelech's son, I pray thee, bring me hither the ephod. And
Abiathar brought thither the ephod to David.
8 And David enquired at the LORD, saying, Shall I pursue after this troop? shall I overtake them? And he answered him, Pursue: for thou shalt surely overtake them, and without fail recover all.

BIBLE IN ONE YEAR : NEHEMIAH 1-3 and JOHN 6:52-71

Message
David's response to the distress he was confronted with, after his family and those of his men were taken captive, should serve as an example of what our response should be in the face of discouragement. The Bible in 1 Samuel 30:8 says:
"And David enquired at the LORD, saying, Shall I pursue after this troop? shall I overtake them? And he
answered him, Pursue: for thou shalt surely overtake them, and without fail recover all."
Whenever you experience a loss, you need to go back to God to find out if it is possible to recover what was lost, and how such recovery would be achieved. Do not take it for granted that every loss must be recovered. Sometimes, when the Lord calls home a loved one who is very ill and going through excruciating pain, there might be no need for Him to return such a fellow back to life, except of course if He wants to heal such a fellow. Also, if a blessing is already becoming a curse or something else, it may be preferable for such a blessing to go for the greater good. Have you taken time to ask God about His will concerning your losses? Have you also asked how such losses can be recovered?

We can see from today's Bible reading that people respond to discouragement in different ways. Some people do not mind going to any extreme when they are discouraged. At the point of discouragement, David's men suddenly blamed the same leader who had been protecting them. They began to see their helper as the source of their loss. They began to speak against him and even planned to stone him to death! This shows the destructive power of discouragement. How do you handle situations when you are discouraged? Do you turn your helpers into enemies? There are some believers including ministers, who at the height of discouragement deliberately step out of righteousness and return temporarily to the sinful lifestyle they abandoned several years ago. This type of response is wrong. When faced with discouragement, encourage yourself in the Lord.
Study God's word to receive a word of encouragement and direction. Pray to God, praise and thank Him for all past blessings and worship Him. Doing these may be difficult, but ask for grace to do so. Seek counselling from godly people. Also, ask yourself: what does Satan want me to do in this situation? Ensure you don't act according to his expectation.

Key Point:
Discouragement is an arrow that must be returned to its source with haste.

THEME :
ASK FOR PERMISSION!
Memorise:
Thou shalt not steal.
Exodus 20:15
Read: Genesis 49:3-4
3 Reuben, thou art my firstborn, my might, and the beginning of my strength, the
excellency of dignity, and the excellency of power:
4 Unstable as water, thou shalt not excel; because thou wentest up to thy father's
bed; then defiledst thou it: he went up to my couch.
Message
One commandment that God gave to the children of Israel in the wilderness,
which is still very relevant to us today, is the commandment not to steal (Exodus
20:15). Stealing can occur physically, in the realm of the soul and spiritually.
Physical stealing can further be classified as stealing from man and stealing from
God (Malachi 3:8). To steal is to take another person's property without their
consent or approval, particularly with the intention of not returning it. As a
growing child, teenager or youth, if you take your parent's money without their
consent, you are a thief.
Some youths will say "Whatever belongs to my father belongs to me. I should be
free to take any of his things whenever I like." No sir! Your parents have plans for
all that they have. Taking their things without their approval can destabilise some
of those plans. It can also inflict pain, sorrow and untold hardship on your
parents. A child who is well brought up will ask his or her parents for what they
want and give them the opportunity to approve or deny the request. The right rule
to live by is: anything your parents are not ready to give you must not be taken.
If you take it, you are a thief and not better than any robber out there.
Reuben, Jacob's firstborn, slept with Bilhah his father's concubine on his father's
bed (Genesis 35:22). According to their tradition, after his father's death, he could
have inherited her as the firstborn, but he could not wait for his time. Jacob kept
quiet about this when he heard it. Reuben did not realise that Jacob knew, and he
did not restitute. Eventually, when it was time to receive the generational
blessing, Reuben was cursed and his destiny was thwarted (Genesis 49:3-4). A
curse awaits children who steal from their parents. Zechariah 5:3 says:
"Then said he unto me, This is the curse that goeth forth over the face of the
whole earth: for every one that stealeth shall be cut off as on this side according
to it; and every one that sweareth shall be cut off as on that side according to
it."
Even the prodigal son knew well enough to ask for his share of his father's
property before spending it (Luke 15:12). Today, some children either neglect their
parents or fast-track their death so that they can have faster access to their
wealth. Doing such is murder and robbery! No doubt, the blessing will surely turn
into a curse. Children, as long as you live with your parents, totally submit to
them like Jesus did. Never take anything that belongs to them without their
willing consent. Also, do not threaten them to accede your request.
Action Point:
Return all that you have taken without the consent of the rightful owners from
today.

THEME : NOT MOVED BY TEARS!
Memorise:
I will worship toward thy holy temple, and praise thy name for thy lovingkindness
and for thy truth: for thou hast magnified thy word above all thy name.
Psalm 138:2
Read: Psalm 138:1-3
1 A Psalm of David. I will praise thee with my whole heart: before the gods will I
sing praise unto thee.
2 I will worship toward thy holy temple, and praise thy name for thy
lovingkindness and for thy truth: for thou hast magnified thy word above all thy
name.
3 In the day when I cried thou answeredst me, and strengthenedst me with
strength in my soul.
Message
If there is anything we need so dearly to succeed in life, it is wisdom. In God's
manual for life, wisdom is declared to be the principal thing (Proverbs 4:7). What
then is wisdom? Practically speaking, wisdom is the correct application of
knowledge. The fellow who is educated but fails to apply what he or she knows
appropriately will be considered a fool. This is why education alone does not
confer wisdom. There are several professors who, in spite of all their chains of
degrees, still operate in folly.
If knowledge alone is wisdom, then no doctor would engage in smoking because
all doctors know that smoking is injurious to health. A particular doctor who
smokes was asked "You are a doctor; you know smoking is bad for your health
and yet you still smoke. Why?" Can you believe his reply? He said "Everybody will
eventually die by one means or the other someday. Some will die in an accident;
some will die by an assassin's bullet. I have chosen to die by smoking ci******es."
Wisdom therefore is having knowledge and applying it correctly for your personal
benefit. Are you an educated fool? It is time to change your ways.
As a worker in God's vineyard, it is important to know that God is not moved by
emotions, tears, or by rolling on the ground. Rather, He is moved by the correct
application of the principles contained in His Word. His Word is declared to be
forever settled in Heaven (Psalm 119:89).
God is a God of principles; hence, a mathematician like me finds it easy to enjoy
Him, because mathematicians are not often moved by emotions. Take for
instance this equation: 2 + 2 = 4. Whether you like it or not, it always remains the
same.
If you like, you can weep from morning till evening saying "I want 2 + 2 to be 6."
It will not change anything, because 2 + 2 = 4 will ever remain the same, be it on
earth, on the moon or under the sea. When you know that God is not moved by
emotions but by His Word, wisdom demands that you apply His Word more often.
Psalm 138:2 says,
"I will worship toward thy holy temple, and praise thy name for thy lovingkindness
and for thy truth: for thou hast magnified thy word above all thy name."
Obeying God's Word moves Him. God honours those who stand on His Word. This
means that you need to increase in the knowledge of God's Word so that you will
be able to stand on it. Give more time to knowing His Word and stand on it today.
Action Point:
Pick a problem confronting you, and find out God's principles on how to solve it.
Simply apply these principles, and check out the result you will obtain.

THEME : STAGNANCY IS NOT YOUR PORTION
Memorise:
And all these blessings shall come on thee, and
overtake thee, if thou shalt
hearken unto the voice of the LORD thy God.
Deuteronomy 28:2
Read: John 5:2-9
2 Now there is at Jerusalem by the sheep market a
pool, which is called in the
Hebrew tongue Bethesda, having five porches.
3 In these lay a great multitude of impotent folk, of
blind, halt, withered, waiting
for the moving of the water.
4 For an angel went down at a certain season into
the pool, and troubled the
water: whosoever then first after the troubling of the
water stepped in was made
whole of whatsoever disease he had.
5 And a certain man was there, which had an
infirmity thirty and eight years.
6 When Jesus saw him lie, and knew that he had
been now a long time in that
case, he saith unto him, Wilt thou be made whole?
7 The impotent man answered him, Sir, I have no
man, when the water is troubled,
to put me into the pool: but while I am coming,
another steppeth down before
me.
8 Jesus saith unto him, Rise, take up thy bed, and
walk.
9 And immediately the man was made whole, and
took up his bed, and walked:
and on the same day was the sabbath.
Message
On the 20th of July, we looked at the states of
progress represented by
retrogression and repression. One lesson we must
learn is that sometimes,
repressive forces are not necessarily interested in
taking over the harvest of their
victims; rather, all they want to do is to ensure that
all the labour and efforts of
their victims are wasted, so that they can mock and
laugh them to scorn (Judges
6:3-16). Every repressive force seen and unseen
that is interested in wasting all
your honest efforts shall be destroyed by the fire of
the Holy Ghost in Jesus'
Name.
Moreover, another state of progress is stagnation.
This is a state of standstill. In
this state, there is no forward or upward movement.
The fellow operating in this
state remains on the same spot in spite of his or
her efforts. In a situation of
stagnancy, effort does not count, because it
appears there is some invisible rope
tying the victim to the same spot. In our Bible
reading, we read about a man who
was sick for 38 years. This man was operating in a
state of stagnancy. He was at
the pool of Bethesda waiting for an angel to stir up
the water. He was waiting for
a once-a-year miracle available to just one person.
The unfortunate thing is that
he was not alone. There was a crowd also waiting
to take this same chance. As a
result, he kept on waiting for several years!
There are some people who are so full of hope at
the beginning of a year, but at
the end of that year, they realise that they are still at
the same spot. When I was
schooling at the University of Lagos, there was a
particular student who had been
there for eight years, but he never went beyond
year one. He kept changing from
one faculty to the other and from one department to
another. We met him there
and left him there. Have you been stagnant? Are all
your efforts futile? Have you
been so long on the same spot? The Lord will
intervene in your situation today!
The Lord will turn things around for your good. I
rebuke every force keeping you
on the same spot. Whatever is tying you down is
destroyed now. That miracle
that your stagnant situation is trying to deny you is
released to you now in Jesus'
Name.
Prayer Point:
I command every spirit of stagnancy keeping me
and my family on the same spot,
in the Name of Jesus Christ, pack your load and
leave now!

THEME : THE SPIRITUAL MARATHON
Memorise:
But he that shall endure unto the end, the same shall be saved. Mathew 24:13
Read: Hebrews 12:1-3
1 WHEREFORE seeing we also are compassed about with so great a cloud of
witnesses, let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which doth so easily beset
us, and let us run with patience the race that is set before us,
2 Looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of our faith; who for the joy that
was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is set down at
the right hand of the throne of God.
3 For consider him that endured such contradiction of sinners against himself,
lest ye be wearied and faint in your minds.
Message
The day you genuinely gave your life to Christ, you began a race. It is a spiritual
race. The race to Heaven is not a sprint but a marathon. It is not something you
run with all your strength for just one day and it ends there. Unlike the regular
marathon that goes through streets and paths already marked out, you may have
to take unmarked routes and paths hitherto unknown while running this race. Also,
unlike in regular marathons where you can meet someone who has successfully
finished the race for tips, those who have run this peculiar race to the end are
definitely not around on earth for people to consult with.
By the grace of God, as young as I am in Christ, I have been running this race for
more than forty years now, and I am yet to reach the finishing line. There are
people who joined this race some fifty or sixty years ago, and they are still on it
till now. Every race has its peculiar nature. If you need patience and a lot of tact
while running an earthly marathon, you will need much more of these while
running the heavenly race. No wonder Hebrews 12:1 says,
“Wherefore seeing we also are compassed, about with so great a cloud of
witnesses, let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which doth so easily beset
us, and let us run with patience the race that is set before us”
However, just like it happens in earthly marathons, there are several casualties in
the heavenly race. Some people start a marathon like a sprint. They run far ahead
of others, but after some time, they lose steam and begin to retrogress while
those they left behind overtaken them. Also, there are those who fall and injure
themselves, ending up in an ambulance. There are also those who out of
exhaustion are unable to continue the race, and so they drop out. There are even
those who after running for a while, gradually step out of the path, and are
disqualified. All these scenarios are applicable to the spiritual marathon. Since
you started the race to Heaven, have you been affected by any of these? Have
you stepped out of the path of the race? Have you run out of steam? Have you
fallen and refused to rise up? Get up today! The Lord will give you strength.
Persist some more. Take it one day at a time. Call on the Lord to help you. Never
give up. Each day that passes draws you closer to the finishing line. You will
make it in Jesus’ Name!
Prayer Point:
Father, grant me grace to run the race to Heaven with wisdom, patience and
perseverance.

THEME: UNFORGIVENESS & ITS RESTITUTION

MEMORISE: Whosoever hateth his brother is a murderer: and ye know that no murderer hath eternal life abiding in him. 1 John 3:15

READ: 1st John 2:9-11,
9 He that saith he is in the light, and hateth his brother, is in darkness even until now.
10 He that loveth his brother abideth in the light, and there is none occasion of stumbling in him.
11 But he that hateth his brother is in darkness, and walketh in darkness, and knoweth not whither he goeth, because that darkness hath blinded his eyes.

BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: 2 Chronicles 30-31, John 2

As children of God, we must always be watchful of pitfalls capable of nullifying all our efforts towards making Heaven. For example, God expects you to make restitution when you have told a lie incriminating an innocent person. In the same vain, if you have injured someone, you need to restitute. An example of this can be found in Acts 16:33-34, where the jailor who had contributed to the predicament of Paul and Silas took them to his house, treated their injuries and gave them decent food. Have you injured someone physically, emotionally or psychologically? Restitute your ways. In addition, if someone offends you so hard that you promised never to forgive the fellow, there is a need to forgive and release that individual so that you can make Heaven at last. Anyone who hates his brother has stepped out of God’s light into darkness and is seen as a murderer in the sight of God (1st John 3:15). If you are in hatred, you are out of eternal life. Has anyone offended you to the extent that you resolved not to forgive? You must change that decision now if you do not want it to hinder your trip to Heaven. I once hated a particular man very much, because of the way he maltreated my family and I. But after I gave my life to Christ, I did not only forgive him, I also went to tell him he was forgiven. It was not an easy thing for me to do, but by the grace of God, I did it.

Is there un-forgiveness in your heart over some hurt or offence done to you? If you love yourself, forgive today. Forgiveness must be communicated to the one you have forgiven except it is done without sincerity. Some people say, “I have forgiven my offender but I will not tell him so.” How will the fellow you forgave know that he or she is forgiven? When a person is offended, it is like being owed some kind of debt. It is when forgiveness is released that the debt is paid. Refusing to forgive your offender sustains the debt, and we are commanded not to owe any man anything but love (Romans 13:8). The irony of un-forgiveness is that the one who refuses to forgive hurts himself or herself the most. The offender may be going about with a free mind, but the offended carries a heavy heart. Also, by begrudging the offender, the offended cannot move beyond where he or she is. Un-forgiveness ties the offended to the same spot. I hope you are not the one pe***ng your rise by not releasing your offender?

ACTION POINT
List the names of people you hold a grudge against or who hold a grudge against you, and prayerfully reconcile with them immediately.
