Open Heavens Reflection 21 June 2017 - Why Hunger?

Open Heavens 22 June 2017: Thursday daily devotional by Pastor E. A. Adeboye-Who is behind this roadblock?

Posted: 20 Jun 2017 01:30 PM PDT

WHO IS BEHIND THIS ROADBLOCK? - Thursday June 22nd 2017
Memorise: Examine me, O LORD, and prove me; try my reins and my heart. Psalm 26:2
Read: Numbers 22:22-31 (KJV)
22:22 And God's anger was kindled because he went: and the angel of the Lord stood in the way for an adversary against him. Now he was riding upon his ass, and his two servants were with him.

22:23 And the ass saw the angel of the Lord standing in the way, and his sword drawn in his hand: and the ass turned aside out of the way, and went into the field: and Balaam smote the ass, to turn her into the way.
22:24 But the angel of the Lord stood in a path of the vineyards, a wall being on this side, and a wall on that side.
22:25 And when the ass saw the angel of the Lord, she thrust herself unto the wall, and crushed Balaam's foot against the wall: and he smote her again.
22:26 And the angel of the Lord went further, and stood in a narrow place, where was no way to turn either to the right hand or to the left.
22:27 And when the ass saw the angel of the Lord, she fell down under Balaam: and Balaam's anger was kindled, and he smote the ass with a staff.
22:28 And the Lord opened the mouth of the ass, and she said unto Balaam, What have I done unto thee, that thou hast smitten me these three times?
22:29 And Balaam said unto the ass, Because thou hast mocked me: I would there were a sword in mine hand, for now would I kill thee.
22:30 And the ass said unto Balaam, Am not I thine ass, upon which thou hast ridden ever since I was thine unto this day? was I ever wont to do so unto thee? and he said, Nay.
22:31 Then the Lord opened the eyes of Balaam, and he saw the angel of the Lord standing in the way, and his sword drawn in his hand: and he bowed down his head, and fell flat on his face.

Bible in one year: Judges 15-16, Jeremiah 51:27-44, Hymn: Sing hymn 4
"Let God arise, let his enemies be scattered: let them also that hate him flee before him."
The above scripture is one of those very popular passages in the Psalms. When a baby Christian hears it, he will say "Amen!" Some adult Christians have even turned it into a song. A mature believer in Christ, I mean a real bone-cracker, will however react differently. When he or she hears this passage being quoted, the first thing he or she will do is to carry out a brief self-examination and introspectively ask: "I hope I am not one of these enemies?" In other words, he is not in a hurry to say amen. In 2nd Samuel 12:1-7, after Prophet Nathan told King David the story of an oppressive act committed in his kingdom, the king rose up in fury and decreed, "That fellow must die." Then the prophet replied, "You are the man, O king." Be very careful how you judge others because Matthew 7:2 says,

"For with what judgement ye judge, ye shall be judged: and with what measure ye mete, it shall be measured to you again."

If only some people were merciful while judging others, they too would have been shown mercy when they were going through their own judgement.

Beloved, before you cry to God to arise and let His enemies be scattered, first find out if you are not that enemy. Open Heavens 22 June 2017: Thursday daily devotional by Pastor E. A. Adeboye-Who is behind this roadblock? Have you even tried to find out whether God is the one fighting you? In today's Bible reading, God had told Prophet Balaam not to go and curse His people. Nevertheless, when Balak invited him to curse the children of Israel and promised him a lot of money, he disobeyed God. God therefore sent an angel to block his way. The donkey he rode on saw the angel and stopped, but because his own eyes were blinded by covetousness, he could not see the angel. What will you do if you find yourself in this scenario? You perceive something is blocking your way but you do not know what exactly it is, and you say, "You demon standing between me and my destiny, move!" You get a response saying, "I am not a demon but an angel." You then insist and say, "No problem, whatever you are, move out of my way!" He then asks, "In whose name?" You say "In the Name of Jesus Christ", and the response is, "Oh, He is the One who asked me to block your way!" What would you do? Today, many people are busy fighting non-existent forces of darkness that they believe are blocking their way. Go back to God and find out who is really blocking your way in order to pray correctly.
Key Point
Many children of God are doing God's work their own way and refusing to do it God's way. God is therefore grinding them to a halt!

Open Heavens 21 June 2017: Wednesday daily devotional by Pastor E. A. Adeboye- Why Hunger?

Posted: 20 Jun 2017 03:40 AM PDT

WHY HUNGER? – Wednesday June 21st 2017
Memorize: My soul shall be satisfied as with marrow and fatness; and my mouth shall praise thee with joyful lips: Psalm 63:5
Read: Proverbs 19:23-24 (KJV)
19:23 The fear of the Lord tendeth to life: and he that hath it shall abide satisfied; he shall not be visited with evil.

19:24 A slothful man hideth his hand in his bosom, and will not so much as bring it to his mouth again.

Bible in one year: Judges 12-14, Jeremiah 51:12-26, Hymn: Sing hymn 10
One of our benefits as the sheep of the Great Shepherd is the assurance of provision. If you are a sheep of Jesus, you will definitely be fed and hunger will be alien to you. Psalm 37:3 says,


"Trust in the LORD, and do good; so shalt thou dwell in the land, and verily thou shalt be fed."

If God has promised that we shall be fed, why then are some of us hungry and even starving today? Several factors are responsible for this, first of which is that some people erroneously mistaken poverty for righteousness and wealth or sinfulness. Some people have chosen to be poor so as to make Heaven. This is a fallacy! Do you know that so many poor people on earth, after suffering here, end up in Hell, whereas many believing Christians who were rich on earth continue to swim in eternal riches in Heaven? Open Heavens 21 June 2017: Wednesday daily devotional by Pastor E. A. Adeboye- Why Hunger? The choice is yours. Do not choose what will destroy but what will deliver you. Abraham was rich on earth, died and continued to live in God's abundance in Heaven. What is your choice? If you are still holding onto such negative beliefs or stereotypes, then you need to have a change of mindset.
Also, some believers are hungry today because they have violated God's financial principles. For instance, if you are not faithfully paying your tithe, you are inviting devourers to drive you into hunger. If you fail to pay your first fruits, you will be giving the enemy legal grounds to contest your job, open doors or breakthrough, and this could lead to hunger. Similarly, when you eat up the seeds you are meant to sow after every provision that comes to you, you will lose the harvest that could keep you from starving tomorrow. Some believers are in hunger as a result of reckless spending. They want to spend everything they have in one day. If you eat up a month's provision in one week, you may have to spend the remaining weeks in hunger. In addition, some believers do not really trust God but in the quality of their certificate, wisdom, knowledge and skill. This attitude has resulted in God stepping aside from their affairs in order to make them realise how little they can achieve by their limited strength. Hence, such people have ended up in disappointment and lack. Beyond this, others are in hunger because of laziness, as they have refused to take up opportunities to gather wealth. Lack and poverty may also be as a result of satanic manipulation and control. Are you hungry? Is it caused by your actions or inactions? Arise and put things in order today and turn away from hunger and lack! 
Key Point
The Child of a billionaire cannot be starving for what to eat. You are the child of the richest person in the universe. You should not lack any good thing.

Open Heavens 20 June 2017:Tuesday daily devotional by Pastor E. A. Adeboye- Evangelism: Be more proactive

Posted: 19 Jun 2017 01:13 PM PDT

EVANGELISM: BE MORE PROACTIVE – Tuesday June 20th 2017
Memorise: Through wisdom is an house builded; and by understanding it is established: Proverbs 24:3
Read: Acts 5:12-16 (KJV)

5:12 And by the hands of the apostles were many signs and wonders wrought among the people; (and they were all with one accord in Solomon's porch.

5:13 And of the rest durst no man join himself to them: but the people magnified them.

5:14 And believers were the more added to the Lord, multitudes both of men and women.)

5:15 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.

5:16 There came also a multitude out of the cities round about unto Jerusalem, bringing sick folks, and them which were vexed with unclean spirits: and they were healed every one.

Bible in one year: Judges 10-11, Jeremiah 50:44-51:11, Hymn: Sing hymn 13
MESSAGE:
Soul winning can trigger the miraculous, as seen in the lives of the apostles. If you really want signs and wonders to attend to your life and ministry, you must be prepared to declare Jesus Christ at every opportunity you have, and if you lack such opportunities, you must be prepared to create them. In our Bible reading for today, it is recorded that through the hands of the apostles, several miracles were performed. This was a generic statement affecting all the apostles because they were all preaching the word of God (Acts 5:12). After this generic statement was made, Peter was singled out. Concerning him, it was said that he did not need to lay hands before miracles took place; rather, even his shadow was conducting deliverance and healing services while he was busy moving from place to place. Why was this so? How did Peter excel in signs and wonders? It was because he took advantage of every opportunity he had to preach the gospel of Jesus Christ. He could face any crowd and declare his faith in Jesus Christ to them (See Acts 2&Acts 3). God saw this attitude and was quite impressed, and He said, "Since you are unstoppable in declaring My word, signs and wonders will never cease in your life."


Can you take the action of witnessing to such limits as you have never been before? In various life endeavours, several Christians plan, set goals and targets, and come up with strategies to accomplish them, but when it comes to soul-winning they don't do any of these. As a marketer, you devise plans on how to reach out to a larger segment of the market and on how to get a larger market share for your products. That is how it should be for soul-winning too. What is your plan or strategy for winning more souls to Christ this year? For many individuals, couples or families, there is no plan for evangelism. No specific number of converts is being targeted daily, weekly, monthly or yearly. Due to this lack of planning, some people cannot boast of five converts in 12 months. What a shame! Several opportunities that God gave us to win souls have been lost to lack of planning. If you set a monthly target to winning 20 souls, you will take every opportunity that comes your way more seriously and exploit them in order to achieve your target. Success in evangelism can never be attained without a plan. Repent today and become more proactive in evangelism. Come up with a plan for the year and prayerfully pursue it. It shall be achieved in Jesus' Name.
Action Point:
Draw up a one-year evangelism plan stating the number of souls to be won daily, weekly and monthly, and prayerfully execute it.

Open Heavens Reflections 19 June 2017 - Lust Pulls Its Victims

Posted: 18 Jun 2017 02:07 PM PDT

Open Heavens 19 June 2017: Monday daily devotional by Pastor E. A. Adeboye- Lust pulls its victim

Posted: 18 Jun 2017 01:22 PM PDT

LUST PULLS ITS VICTIM – Monday June 19th 2017
Memorise; But every man is tempted, when he is drawn away of his own lust, and enticed. James 1:14
Read: James 1:12-16 (KJV)

1:12 Blessed is the man that endureth temptation: for when he is tried, he shall receive the crown of life, which the Lord hath promised to them that love him.

1:13 Let no man say when he is tempted, I am tempted of God: for God cannot be tempted with evil, neither tempteth he any man:

1:14 But every man is tempted, when he is drawn away of his own lust, and enticed.

1:15 Then when lust hath conceived, it bringeth forth sin: and sin, when it is finished, bringeth forth death.

1:16 Do not err, my beloved brethren.


Bible in one year: Judges 9, Jeremiah 50:31-43, Hymn: Sing hymn 6
MESSAGE:
Many people have been taken captive in different ways. Some have become captives of war, while some others have fallen prey to traps set by the enemy. May God deliver us from satanic booby traps! However, you really need to exercise caution if you do not want to fall prey to the devil. Watch those things you take pleasure in because sooner rather than later, they can become the very things the tempter will use in enticing you! Open Heavens 19 June 2017: Monday daily devotional by Pastor E. A. Adeboye- Lust pulls its victim.  Today's memory verse tells us that temptations start with us: they emanate from what we secretly or openly long for. Some people nurse some unvoiced thoughts and ideas and do not really care whether those thoughts agree with the standard of Philippians 4:8. This standard states:

"…Whatsoever things are true, whatsoever thing are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, think on these things."

For nonchalant Christians, the devil soon sets them up to reveal exactly what is in their heart, and thereafter they are confronted with temptations. An example here is Esau, who loved good food. He loved eating so much that the devil decided to use food to secure the loss of his destiny, and he fell for it. If you secretly admire the opposite sex, the devil will find out about it someday, and before long, you will be battling with sexual lust or some other form of immorality.

Men are drawn by their own lustful thoughts. Lust pulls the one lusting into further sin. Do everything possible to avoid lust because before you know it, it will bring you into the pit of sin. If you lust after money, before long, you will find yourself in a situation where you will be tempted to sell out on your salvation or betray someone who is close to you in exchange for money, like Judas Iscariot and Joseph's brothers did. What do you secretly lust after? Open heavens 2017. If you ignore it, you will later regret it by the time the tempter is through with you. This is the time to prayerfully check and cut off any seemingly harmless pull from lust. Where there is a pull, it continues until there is a build-up. When the build-up has become formidable, it will become too difficult to resist its compelling force to sin. Therefore, do everything possible to love only those things that are good, and feed your mind on the word of God. Also, avoid the tendency for a build up by resisting the subtle lure of lust. Prayerfully keep your thoughts in check and closely monitor what you allow into your heart. 
Action Point:
To prevent sexual sins, covetousness, murders and the likes, stop it at the thought stage. Don't allow it move from thought to lust.

Open Heavens 18 June 2017: Sunday daily devotional by Pastor E. A. Adeboye- It’s What you tolerate

Posted: 17 Jun 2017 01:33 PM PDT

IT'S WHAT YOU TOLERATE – Sunday June 18th 2017
Memorise: Whom resist stedfast in the faith, knowing that the same afflictions are accomplished in your brethren that are in the world. 1st Peter 5:9
Read: Matthew 8:14-15 (KJV)
8:14 And when Jesus was come into Peter's house, he saw his wife's mother laid, and sick of a fever.
 8:15 And he touched her hand, and the fever left her: and she arose, and ministered unto them.

Bible in one year: Judges 7-8, Jeremiah 50:17-30, Hymn: Sing hymn 4
MESSAGE:
When Jesus came to Peter's house in today's Bible reading, He met his mother-in-law down with a fever. He touched her and she was healed instantly, and she then began to attend to their needs. This clearly tells us that Jesus does not tolerate sickness in our bodies. However, the question is, do you tolerate sickness? Some people are tolerant of things they should not accept. Tolerating sickness is telling that it is welcome in your body. Some people tolerate certain sicknesses that are traced to certain natural conditions. For instance, when a woman is pregnant, people expect her to go through morning sickness. Open Heavens 18 June 2017: Sunday daily devotional by Pastor E. A. Adeboye- It's what you tolerate.  While this is mild for some people, it can be very tough for some others. Nevertheless, if you know your rights as a spiritual Hebrew woman and stand in faith against any form of ill health, you will receive strength to go through pregnancy in good health and not in sickness. To do so, you must be strong in faith and tell sickness that it is not welcome because you have no room or space for it. 1st Timothy 2:15 says,

"Notwithstanding she shall be saved in childbearing, if they continue in faith and charity and holiness with sobriety."

In other words, if you are truly a godly woman, you should not be taken down by the dangers of childbirth that affect ungodly women. Stand in faith and live holy, and your conception and delivery will be most pleasant!

In the same vein, some sicknesses are attributed to old age. An elderly man who was still quite active suddenly got up one day and realised he had difficultly walking. He tried some self-medication to no avail, and so he was taken to the hospital. Open Heavens 2017. The doctor examined him and told him his sickness was as a result of old age. He was advised to just manage it with certain medicines. There are some people whose eyesight fail them due to old age, even as early as 60 years old. For a child of God, you can stand in faith, resist such sicknesses and enjoy good health all through your life. At 120 years old, when it was time to go to be with the Lord, Moses still retained the strength of his youth (Deuteronomy 34:7). Caleb also retained his strength at 85 years old (Joshua 14:10-11). If you stand in faith, what affects others will not be able to affect you. If you refuse to resist these sicknesses, you will become a victim just like everyone else. The choice is yours.
Key Point
If Jesus has carried your pains and sorrows according to Isaiah 53:4, why are you still accepting to carry them?
