Open Heavens Devotional: Great Expectations

OPEN HEAVENS DEVOTIONAL
BY Pastor E.A. Adeboye
Date: - Monday, 30 March 2015
Topic: - Great Expectations

Memorise: But as it is written, Eye hath not seen, nor ear heard, neither have entered into the heart of man, the things which God hath prepared for them that love him. - 1 Corinthians 2:9
Read: John 4:24-34 (KJV)
24 God is a Spirit: and they that worship him must worship him in spirit and in truth.
25 The woman saith unto him, I know that Messias cometh, which is called Christ: when he is come, he will tell us all things.
26 Jesus saith unto her, I that speak unto thee am he.
27 And upon this came his disciples, and marvelled that he talked with the woman: yet no man said, What seekest thou? or, Why talkest thou with her?
28 The woman then left her waterpot, and went her way into the city, and saith to the men,
29 Come, see a man, which told me all things that ever I did: is not this the Christ?
30 Then they went out of the city, and came unto him.
31 In the mean while his disciples prayed him, saying, Master, eat.
32 But he said unto them, I have meat to eat that ye know not of.
33 Therefore said the disciples one to another, Hath any man brought him ought to eat?
34 Jesus saith unto them, My meat is to do the will of him that sent me, and to finish his work.

Bible in One Year: Micah 5-7, Matthew 11:20-12:8

MESSAGE:
The Scripture reading of today shows us a marked difference between the priorities of our Lord Jesus Christ and that of His disciples at a point in time. Many of us, like the disciples, are often engrossed with how to meet our physical, psychological and emotional needs. We are immersed in things which are ephemeral in nature. These include what to eat, what to drink, where to live, how to be clothed, how to take care of our immediate and distant families, how to stay healthy, how to be wealthy and how to be famous. Jesus assured His disciples that the Father knew their needs and would provide for them (Matthew 6:31-32). Moreover, He stressed what should be the topmost priority of all heaven-bound Christians. Matthew 6:33 says,
"But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you."
Passion for the things of God should be your topmost priority! It is often said that passionate people make the greatest contributions to society. Be passionate about the things of God. Seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and the necessities of daily life will be provided. Stop chasing shadows. Stop putting the cart before the horse. It is time to correctly prioritise your life and passions.
God is called the God of glory in Acts 7:2. There are therefore great expectations for those who serve the God of glory in holiness and truth. There is a blessing of divine favour for all who consecrate themselves to serving God in spirit and truth. It should be noted that a day of divine favour is better than many years of labour. The blessing of divine favour is superior to what people ordinarily enjoy. I pray that you will enjoy the blessing of divine favour with effect from today in Jesus' Name. Those who consecrate themselves to serving God in spirit and truth also receive divine prosperity (Psalm 1:1-3). God is the only one who blesses without adding sorrows to it. Are you experiencing sorrow in any area of your life? I pray that God will turn that sorrow to joy in Jesus' Name.
There is fruitfulness for all who consecrate themselves to serving God in spirit and truth (Psalm 92:12-14). They also have an assurance of victory over all known and unknown enemies (Psalm 132:18). God will reveal the secrets of all your enemies to you. He will stand by you and fight all your battles for you. He will render your enemies irrelevant and grant you victory over them. Finally, there is the assurance of making heaven at last for all who consecrate themselves to serving God in spirit and truth. What is the state of your consecration and love for God?

Prayer Point: Father, grant me the grace to consecrate myself to serving you in spirit and truth.

OPEN HEAVENS Sunday, 29 March 2015 : EMMANUEL

It's a great day! Please find below today's open heaven's devotional.

OPEN HEAVENS DEVOTIONAL
BY Pastor E.A. Adeboye
Date: - Sunday, 29 March 2015
Topic: - Emmanuel

Memorise: Thus saith the LORD of hosts; In those days it shall come to pass, that ten men shall take hold out of all languages of the nations, even shall take hold of the skirt of him that is a Jew, saying, We will go with you: for we have heard that God is with you. - Zechariah 8:23

Read: (Matthew 1:18-25 KJV)
18 Now the birth of Jesus Christ was on this wise: When as his mother Mary was espoused to Joseph, before they came together, she was found with child of the Holy Ghost.
19 Then Joseph her husband, being a just man, and not willing to make her a publick example, was minded to put her away privily.
20 But while he thought on these things, behold, the angel of the Lord appeared unto him in a dream, saying, Joseph, thou son of David, fear not to take unto thee Mary thy wife: for that which is conceived in her is of the Holy Ghost.
21 And she shall bring forth a son, and thou shalt call his name JESUS: for he shall save his people from their sins.
22 Now all this was done, that it might be fulfilled which was spoken of the Lord by the prophet, saying,
23 Behold, a virgin shall be with child, and shall bring forth a son, and they shall call his name Emmanuel, which being interpreted is, God with us.
24 Then Joseph being raised from sleep did as the angel of the Lord had bidden him, and took unto him his wife:
5 And knew her not till she had brought forth her firstborn son: and he called his name JESUS.

Bible in One Year: Micah 1-4, Matthew 10:40-11:19

MESSAGE:
One reason why the Holy Spirit caused the Gospel of Matthew to be written is to show that Jesus fulfilled the Old Testament prophesies concerning the Messiah. One of such prophesies is found in Isaiah 7:14 which says,
"Therefore the Lord himself shall give you a sign; Behold, a virgin shall conceive, and bear a son, and shall call his name Immanuel."
This prophecy was shown to be fulfilled by Jesus in our Bible reading today. One of the key points of this prophecy is that Jesus will be referred to as Emmanuel. The name Emmanuel means "God with us". There is nothing as good as when God is with a person. God is the eternal, independent, self-existing Being. He is the Being whose purpose and actions spring from Himself without any external influence. God is absolute in dominion and infinitely benevolent. He alone is the cause of all existence and the upholder of all things. Numerous benefits accrue from the presence of God. One advantage of having God with you is that no force, known or unknown can successfully detract you from fulfilling destiny (Romans 8:31-32).
For you to fully key into the revelation of "God with us", you need to understand who God is. God revealed who He is in discrete parts through His redemptive Names to the saints of old. He said to Moses in Exodus 6:3:
"And I appeared unto Abraham, unto Isaac, and unto Jacob, by the name of God Almighty, but by my name JEHOVAH was I not known to them."
An understanding of His redemptive Names gives us insight into His personality and allows us to profit from the consciousness that this personality is with us.
God is the Elshaddai: He is the All-Sufficient One. This means that He has enough resources to meet all your needs - be it spiritual, physical, emotional or psychological. Also, God is Jehovah Jireh: the Great Provider. He has the ability to turn your austerity to prosperity and poverty to wealth (Philippians 4:19). Another Name for God is Jehovah Rapha: the Healer. Are you sick? He has the ability to cure you of all ailments - be it pathological, soul sickness or spiritual sickness. God is also Jehovah Nissi: He is the Man of War. Are you facing any battle? The Almighty God has the ability to fight all of your battles for you and to grant you total victory. Are the enemies of your life mammoth? Turn to Jehovah Nissi today. Let Him be your Emmanuel. I prophesy that you will experience victory in all the battles of your life in Jesus' Name.

Action Point: Consciously carry the presence of God along with you wherever you go.

Impulsive Praise

Saturday, 28 March 2015
Open Heavens 28 March 2015: Saturday daily devotion by Pastor E. A. Adeboye - Impulsive Praise

Topic: Impulsive Praise [Saturday March 28, 2015]

Memorise: And Mary said, My soul doth magnify the Lord, And my spirit hath rejoiced in God my Saviour. - Luke 1:46-47

Read: (Acts 3:6-9 KJV)

6 Then Peter said, Silver and gold have I none; but such as I have give I thee: In the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth rise up and walk.

7 And he took him by the right hand, and lifted him up: and immediately his feet and ankle bones received strength.

8 And he leaping up stood, and walked, and entered with them into the temple, walking, and leaping, and praising God.

9 And all the people saw him walking and praising God:

Bible in One Year: Obadiah 1-Jonah 4, Matthew 10:16-39

MESSAGE:

Praise can be described as a spontaneous outburst of thanksgiving by a grateful child of God in God's presence. When a person knows God and experiences Him intimately, he or she sings to the Lord with deepest praise! Our God is praiseworthy. He dwells in the praises of His children. Christ came so that men would be able to praise God in holiness and truth. The woks of Jesus caused men to rejoice and praise God. Luke 19:37 reports that:
"And when he was come nigh, even now at the descent of the mount of Olives, the whole multitude of the disciples began to rejoice and praise God with a loud voice for all the mighty works that they had seen;"
God created us to praise Him. This will be our activity when we are gathered around His throne in Heaven. No true child of God should have difficulty thinking of reasons why God deserves his or her praise. We should enjoy the times we have to praise our Lord, both privately and publicly. If your life is not filled with praise, it may be that you have lost your appreciation of God's mercy upon you. Please, don't forget what God has saved you from. Never take for granted what it means to have the assurance of eternity with God. Your lifestyle should praise God in holiness and good works. Jesus in Matthew 5:16 said:
"Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven."
Moreover, don't disregard the spiritual kinship you enjoy with other believers. Take time often to recount the blessings God has poured out upon you and your family in the midst of God's people. Jesus in Hebrews 2:12 declared thus:
"Saying, I will declare thy name unto my brethren, in the midst of the church will I sing praise unto thee."
As you contemplate the boundless love and mercy God has shown you, you will want to sing praises to His holy Name. Impulsive praise is spontaneous. It is involuntary and not pre-meditated. Here you can sing praises to God or mention His redemptive Names. Here you praise God because you are overwhelmed by His greatness, loving-kindness and goodness to you. Impulsive praise is credible praise. It does not have to be manipulated or orchestrated. It is a real and personal expression of a grateful heart and wonder-filled life that has encountered the Holy God. This is what God expects from you.

Key Point: Sincere praise is the spontaneous response of one who meditates on the greatness and goodness of the Lord.

NationBuilding: The Choice of a Leader

1 Samuel  12:13 Now therefore behold the king whom ye have chosen, and whom ye have desired! and, behold, the LORD hath set a king over you.

The Choice of a Leader
It is always in the nature of a people to ask for a king and it is always in the jurisdiction of God to grant their request.
There is nothing like an ungoverned state. All through history there has always been a dire need for  leadership no matter the form and this above all must come about by the choice of the people. However in all these, across all civilization there is always the important God factor.
God always rule in the affairs of men. This is why for every great civilization there is a visible hand of God since He is a God of order, It tells me He is interested in Leadership.
Imagine for a second there is no such thing as leadership, there will be utter disorderliness. The societal structures will degrade into total anarchy. This will eventually spell doom for humanity and there will be no advancement of any form.
God had order in mind by upholding leadership in every institution, be it from the most basic institution marriage, to the wider society. This is why when a society craves for a leader, God honors their request based on their own choice.
This is the  reason why a great people has got to make a great choice in leadership because this eventually affects and determines the course of the whole nation on their journey to greatness.
In the country where I live, Nigeria in West Africa, these are very crucial times where the people's choice will count, as we are less than a week to the election date, my charge to everyone is to pray that God be involved in this process, and that every eligible voter exercise his or her voting rights on Saturday 28th of March, 2015. When you vote for the candidate of your choice, you can then wait for God's will to be done.
Let God's will be done,

Open Heavens Devotional for Wednesday, March 18, 2015.

Open Heavens Devotional 📖📖📖
By Pastor E.A. ADEBOYE.

Date:- Wednesday, March 18, 2015.

Topic:- LIVING BY VISION AND REVELATION

Memorise:
After these things the word of the LORD came unto Abram in a vision, saying, Fear not, Abram: I am thy shield, and thy exceeding great reward. Genesis 15:1

Read: Gen.41:38-43
38 And Pharaoh said unto his servants, Can we find such a one as this is, a man in whom the Spirit of God is?

39 And Pharaoh said unto Joseph, Forasmuch as God hath shewed thee all this, there is none so discreet and wise as thou art:

40 Thou shalt be over my house, and according unto thy word shall all my people be ruled: only in the throne will I be greater than thou.

41 And Pharaoh said unto Joseph, See, I have set thee over all the land of Egypt.

42 And Pharaoh took off his ring from his hand, and put it upon Joseph's hand, and arrayed him in vestures of fine linen, and put a gold chain about his neck;

43 And he made him to ride in the second chariot which he had; and they cried before him, Bow the knee: and he made him ruler over all the land of Egypt.

Bible in one year:
Daniel 7:9-8:27
Matthew.4:1-22

Message:
Vision is the energy of progress and a determinant of destiny. Vision is no doubt the most powerful forces available to man on earth today. It gives meaning to life, keep us alive, and conditions our lives. Vision inspired the Greeks to produce philosophy and art that still impact the thinking of our world. It motivated the great Roman Empire to expand its influence and develop the known world. Vision inspires the explorers who circumvented the globe and ignited the creation and expansion of many of the nations we know today. It is your vision that determines your destiny. Proverbs 29:18 says,

" Where there is no vision, the people perish: but he that keepeth the law, happy is he. "

True vision is not based on what a person sees with the physical eyes alone, but on the images seen with the inward eyes of the mind. A man of vision sees what God has planned for him before its fulfilment. Vision entails planning and goal-setting every great person in history owned a personal vision. A man with no vision is at best a living corpse. He desires nothing and achieves nothing. Is your life directed by a clear vision? Do you know your potential for fulfilling this vision? Have you developed a concrete plan for your vision? Do you recognise peoples influence on your vision? These are all questions you need to answer if you will leave your prints on the sand of time. When you begin to act on your vision, it will stir up both those who want to help you and those who want to hinder you. How passionate are you about your vision? Vision requires faith for fulfilment. Have you built up faith necessary for the fulfilment of your God-given vision? And most importantly, what is the source of your vision.

In addition to true vision, God's people live by revelation. A christian is expected to operate on a God-given vision and by a revelation.
Christianity is an intimate growing relationship with the person of Jesus Christ. Every child of God should therefore live by the revelation of the word. We should live by what the word of God says. God expects you to arrange your life based on his word, regardless of whether it is convenient or not. God knows what is best for your future, your family, your church and your country. He wants want to reveal what is on His heart to you, if only he can get your attention. He expects you to diligently pursue your visions and the revelations He drops in your spirit.
Actualising your vision and the revelation God gives you requires diligence, integrity, focus, good human relations, prayer and faith.
How prepared are you to live by these.

Action point:
Dust up that vision or revelation God gave you so long ago and diligently run with it.

He Will Have Mercy

Please enjoy today's spirituality post by Joel Osteen.

Today's Word with Joel & Victoria

He Will Have Mercy
TODAY’S SCRIPTURE
“Two blind men were sitting beside the road. When they heard that Jesus was coming that way, they began shouting, ‘Lord, Son of David, have mercy on us!’ ”
(Matthew 20:30, NLT)
TODAY’S WORD from Joel and Victoria

Today’s verse talks about two blind men that no one really paid attention to. No one gave them much of a chance — but Jesus did! All through scripture we see that He had such great compassion and mercy, everywhere He went and He still has it today.

Maybe you feel like life has overlooked you. Maybe you feel like the people around you don’t really see what you are going through. Today, know that God sees you. He’ll never overlook you even when people overlook you. He is good and no matter what has happened in your life, remember that His mercy endures forever.

Notice what these men did — they called on Jesus. Even when people tried to quiet them, they called even louder. They had confidence that He would hear them and you can have confidence, too! Be bold and step out in faith, call on Him and trust that He sees you and hears you and He will have mercy!

A PRAYER FOR TODAY
God, thank You for Your great mercy and grace. With Your help, I want to step out and act on my faith so that I may see Your great works in Jesus’ name! Amen.

— Joel & Victoria Osteen

MY STORY: I LOVE MY BIBLE

I have always had a resolve to read the Bible through each year, In fact over the past 7 years I have had this goal, However, no matter how much i tried, it's always been like a tall dream, as I always had to try or start all over again every year. However, this year I have a stronger resolve to do 'a bit' daily to get that done.

I sincerely believe that God's word can change my world, that is why the devil will stop at nothing to ensure i read less of God's word. What about you?

The Bible is a special book for me. I am not clouded by any religious ritual of whatever form.Nope! I refuse to. I was introduced to the world of reading almost right on time; about my 8th or 9th birthday even despite my peculiar background ... (I still feel that was A LITTLE late though)- i think its great when kids are taught to read earlier. Out of the stories and books I read growing up or that i presently read, none has been of so much impact on me like the Bible. The Words in it are powerful enough to draw me to its Author and it still does, the words in it were powerful to strip me of every bad habits, and all juvenile delinquencies.This was where I saw the need for a personal relationship with God through Jesus Christ, in that old flamingo-leather-bound *Yoruba Bible at my parent's then, rented old two-room apartment somewhere in Osogbo (a town in western Nigeria, West Africa).

God's word is food to our spirit man and map or compass to help our journey from earth to eternity. It is God's love letter to humanity.

I sincerely believe that God's word can change my world, that is why the devil will stop at nothing to ensure i read less of God's word. What about you? John Bunyan was right 'This BOOK will take you away from sin or sin will take you away from this BOOK' I LOVE MY BIBLE. I will go on to reward myself with a French Bible this year once i am able to read the Bible through... I am currently on a 90 day plan but i am tons of chapters and many days behind schedule...So I am taking a every good step in following through by tracking it weekly and being accountable with every one on my blog and perhaps in any possible place.Perhaps if it's not achieved in a a single 90 day plan it would be achieved in two 90 day plans.

The fact that Bibles are very wonderful versions and formats soft or electronic copies make reading better and better.

I am presently wrapping up the book of Numbers and by weekend I hope I am out of Deuteronomy and by next weekly update on my Bible reading I hope I am closer to the new testament .... wow! that's just so much discipline needed here! I will appreciate your comments on different personal experiences in reading the Bible through.

I am Your Billion-dollar friend,

Emmanuel Ayeni

Open Heavens 14 March 2015: Saturday

Saturday, 14 March 2015
Open Heavens 14 March 2015: Saturday daily devotion by Pastor E. A. Adeboye - Miraculous Recovery

Topic: Miraculous Recovery

Memorise: And I will restore to you the years that the locust hath eaten, the cankerworm, and the caterpiller, and the palmerworm, my great army which I sent among you. - Joel 2:25

Read: (2 Kings 6:1-7 KJV)

1 And the sons of the prophets said unto Elisha, Behold now, the place where we dwell with thee is too strait for us.

2 Let us go, we pray thee, unto Jordan, and take thence every man a beam, and let us make us a place there, where we may dwell. And he answered, Go ye.

3 And one said, Be content, I pray thee, and go with thy servants. And he answered, I will go.

4 So he went with them. And when they came to Jordan, they cut down wood.

5 But as one was felling a beam, the axe head fell into the water: and he cried, and said, Alas, master! for it was borrowed.

6 And the man of God said, Where fell it? And he shewed him the place. And he cut down a stick, and cast it in thither; and the iron did swim.

7 Therefore said he, Take it up to thee. And he put out his hand, and took it.

Bible in One Year: Daniel 1:1-2:30, Revelation 22

MESSAGE:

In our Scripture reading today, we see someone felling a tree by the riverside and the axe head been used falling into River Jordan. Thank God for His power that located the axe head and brought it back up for the user to complete his project. There are people who have lost very precious things in their lives. With God, there is nothing lost that cannot be recovered miraculously. To recover means to find something you once lost. There are people who have suffered partial loss and there others who have suffered total loss. No matter the type of loss you have suffered, The Almighty God will restore them to you in Jesus' Name. In Mark 5:25-34, the woman with issue of blood lost a lot. She lost her health because she had been in that situation for long. She lost her wealth because she had spent all she had, trying to get help from physicians. She lost her peace because when there is absence of good health and wealth, frustration can set in and this leads to depression. But by the time she met Jesus, everything she had lost was restored back to her. For a user of this devotional, whatever good thing you have lost will be recovered instantly in Jesus' Name.

Samson is an example of someone who suffered partial loss (Judge 16:21-27). As a result of his carelessness, he lost his eyes to the enemy. Even though his hair grew back, blindness remained in his life. By that Name that is above every other name, which is Jesus, every reminder of lost in your life is terminated in Jesus'Name. Everything you have lost; financially, physically, in your marriage and career-wise shall be fully recovered in Jesus' Name. Another interesting story that shows God's ability to return whatever one has lost is found in Daniel 4:28-37. It is a story about King Nebuchadnezzar. This king became so proud that he refused to acknowledge God as source of his achievements. In a bid to humble him and teach him that man cannot achieve anything without God, God caused him to lose his kingdom. He also suffered the loss of sanity, humanity, dignity, glory and honour. In fact, for a period of 7 years, he was not different from animals. Miraculously though, all through those years of his wilderness experience, nobody replaced him on the throne. The Lord kept his position intact until his training was over. Testimonies abound to show the fact than an opportunity was lost does not mean it cannot be regained. As long as God is in the equation. He can reverse the irreversible. He can suspend law and principles to make a point in your life. That is why those who think they have seen your end are in for a shocker. It is important that we always appreciate what we have so that we don't lose it. If you have lost your peace of mind due to backsliding, you have to repent of those sins and confess the Lordship of Jesus. If you do these, you will become a new person and experience the time of refreshing from the Almighty God.

Prayer Point: Father, by your mercy, command a recovery of all I have lost in Jesus'Name.

OPEN HEAVENS DEVOTIONAL FRIDAY 13th March,2014.

OPEN HEAVENS DEVOTIONAL
BY Pastor E.A. Adeboye

BY Pastor E.A. Adeboye
Date: - Friday, 13 March 2015
Topic: - The Pains of Disobedience

Memorise: For rebellion is as the sin of witchcraft, and stubbornness is as iniquity and idolatry. Because thou hast rejected the word of the LORD, he hath also rejected thee from being king. - 1 Samuel 15:23

Read: (1 Samuel 15:10-11 KJV)
10 Then came the word of the LORD unto Samuel, saying,
11 It repenteth me that I have set up Saul to be king: for he is turned back from following me, and hath not performed my commandments. And it grieved Samuel; and he cried unto the LORD all night.

Bible in One Year: Ezekiel 47-48, Revelation 21:9-27

MESSAGE:
The sin of disobedience is a terrible sin. Nothing hinders the children of God from fulfilling their purpose in life like disobedience. Disobedience comes in many shades. It can take the form of refusal to keep to specific instructions, functioning in an office God has not called you to, courting a wrong relationship or operating in a place you are not meant to be in at a particular time. No matter what form it takes, the truth remains that disobedience is a terrible sin in the sight of the Almighty God. Disobedience compels God to turn blessings into curse, as we see in the account of Adam and Eve (Genesis 3:17). Every act of disobedience erodes your reservoir of God's blessings. Nothing destroys a man faster than the sin of disobedience. That is the reason why you have to check your life today and take stock of your soul, so that your sky will not be turned into brass (Deuteronomy 28:23). When this happens, instead of favour, you will experience closed doors.
In 1 Samuel 15:1-23, King Saul lost his crown because of partial obedience. God expects full obedience form all His children. He prefers total obedience to partial obedience. This is one of the reasons why many of us are yet to access the blessings of God fully. Abraham was called to leave his father's house behind but he suffered the consequences of disobedience by taking Lot along with him. Who are those people the Lord expects you to have dropped but you are still hanging around? What are those things the Lord has warned you about that you are still engaging in? These are the things that will deny you the full blessings of God. Numbers 12:8 says Moses was so close to God that he conversed with God mouth to mouth. But when he was told by God to speak to the Rock and he struck the rock instead, he was severely punished: he never got to the Promised Land (Numbers 20:12). Check your life and find out those things that are capable of hindering you from becoming the best that God wants you to be. Drop them now before they make you drop out of the journey to the Promised Land.
Check your life today. If you are experiencing perpetual sorrow, suffering, disappointment and unfulfilled desires, check and find out the factors responsible. Don't pretend to be okay when you know all is not well with you. If you confess those hidden sins of disobedience, you will surely find mercy, but if you pretend about it, you will be undoing yourself. Some people keep making effort, yet they never record any success. Several trials and much effort do not guarantee success when disobedience is present.

Action Point: Examine yourself today and repent from every act of disobedience in your life.

OPEN HEAVENS DEVOTIONAL Thursday, March 12, 2015. GET MOTIVATED

Open Heavens Devotional 📖📖📖
By Pastor E.A ADEBOYE

Date:- Thursday,  March 12, 2015.

Topic:- GET MOTIVATED

Memorise:
And let us not be weary in well doing: for in due season we shall reap, if we faint not. Galatians 6:9

Read: Proverbs 6:6-8,
Proverbs  6:6 Go to the ant, thou sluggard; consider her ways, and be wise:

6:7 Which having no guide, overseer, or ruler, 

6:8 Provideth her meat in the summer, and gathereth her food in the harvest.

Bible in one year:
Ezekiel 45:7-46:24,
Revelation 20:7-21:8

Message:
Many believers read or study the Bible but never meditate on it. If only you can find adequate time to ponder on the Word, you will realise that the solution you need for every issue of life is found in it. Find some time to ponder on the recommendation in our Bible reading for today, because anyone who wants to amount to anything significant in life has a lot to learn from the ants. Are you already giving up or
fainting before time? Then, you have a lot to learn from the ants. The reason why some people with great potential will not go far in life is because they are not self-motivated. Motivation has nothing to do with your height but your mind. Whatever is missing in your mind cannot come into your life. If complaining is always your mindset, possibilities will be far from you. These is no limitation or barrier that can stop
you from becoming all that God wants you to become, except the one you place on yourself. You have to make up your mind to lay aside every weight and the sin which easily besets you (Hebrew 12:1). You must not be weary in well-doing because in a short while, if you faint not, you will reap that which has been sown.

One big lesson you can draw from the ants is that they are self-motivated. You have to stay motivated to give your best against all odds. In the midst of other animals, the ants do not struggle to live; they live comfortably. When a man of God does his work the way it should be done, what he will eat will not be a prayer point. As a minister, you must see God as your employer because that is what He is. With this
mindset, you will put your trust in God whenever you are dismayed. If you will ever make it to your goal in life, you have to stay motivated. You have to devise a strategy of staying on top of your game because what you choose as your motivation is central to the achievement of your goals. Hope brings motivation. Hebrews 6:19 says:

“Which hope we have as an anchor of the soul, both sure and steadfast, and which entereth into that within the veil;”

If you lose all your earthly possessions but retain your hope of a better tomorrow, you will be fine. May your anchor of hope remain intact in Jesus’ Name. The result you get from your effort on anything is at most a function of the motivating force driving you.
Motivation is the forerunner of any tangible achievement in life. There are people who have good and strong expectations from life, quite a number of them may drift away due to weariness and a fainting spirit. Is your motivation for a glorious tomorrow still intact? Do you believe all is well with you despite the reports you are getting today? Keep your help alive, it shall be well with you.

ACTION POINT:
Encourage yourself in the Lord. Build up your hope by pondering on God’s faithfulness.

OPEN HEAVENS DEVOTIONAL FOR Wednesday 11th March,2015

OPEN HEAVENS DEVOTIONAL
BY Pastor E.A. Adeboye

BY Pastor E.A. Adeboye
Date: - Tuesday, 10 March 2015
Topic: - Benefits of Patience

Memorise: He staggered not at the promise of God through unbelief; but was strong in faith, giving glory to God; - Romans 4:20

Read: [Genesis 17:1-5 KJV]
1 And when Abram was ninety years old and nine, the LORD appeared to Abram, and said unto him, I am the Almighty God; walk before me, and be thou perfect.
2 And I will make my covenant between me and thee, and will multiply thee exceedingly.
3 And Abram fell on his face: and God talked with him, saying,
4 As for me, behold, my covenant is with thee, and thou shalt be a father of many nations.
5 Neither shall thy name any more be called Abram, but thy name shall be Abraham; for a
father of many nations have I made thee.

Bible in One Year: Ezekiel 41:1-43:12; Revelation 18:19-19:10

MESSAGE:
There are lots of benefits awaiting those who are patient in receiving God's promises.
"For since the beginning of the world men have not heard, nor perceived by the ear, neither hath the eye seen, O God, beside thee, what he hath prepared for him that waiteth for him." - Isaiah 64:4
It is always to our advantage when we wait on His word. It is the only guarantee we have for securing victory, success and the breakthroughs we crave for. For so long, God wanted to enter into a covenant with Abraham, but Abraham was just not ready. It was only after 24 years of self-dependence and self-government by Abraham that God felt He was ready. There are many generational blessings that God wants to give to you. There are also many exploits that He wants you to accomplish, but as long as you are not ready to do it according to His time-table, there will always be unnecessary delays. Any time God calls for a partnership with us, He is simply looking for an opportunity to bless us. He wants to provide divine direction and turn our nothingness to something. He wants to make a message out of our mess, and He wants to bring a testimony out of our tests.
When the Lord called His disciples apart in Mark 6:30-31, it was for the purpose of waiting on Him. If you are the type always running up and down, you cannot get the best from God. Those who wait on Him in patience are usually rewarded. It is very important to wait on Him for direction in your projects, relationships and programmes. If you learn to be patient, situations and circumstances will always be within your control. In the place of waiting, there is no room for unbelief and doubt. Abraham did not stagger at God's promises, and his faith was rewarded (Romans 4:20). Peter toiled all night without catching anything (Luke 5:3-7). The Lord decided to choose his boat for a kingdom assignment and he did not refuse or complain; he just waited for his miracle. At the end, he rejoiced. Have you been waiting on God's promises for so long? Keep your cool. Don't be discouraged. If you become impatient, you may lose the benefits meant to transform your life. At the end of Peter's waiting, his story changed. The Peter who caught nothing became the Peter who needed the assistance of others to handle the blessings of God in his life. I say to a user of this devotional, in that Name that is above every other name, your joy, blessing, breakthrough, healing and anointing will overflow to generations yet unborn. Waiting upon the promises of God requires faith. When you wait patiently on God for anything, you save time, and in the end, nothing will be lost.

Prayer Point: Dear Lord, please continue to be my focus as I wait on you.

Meet the Living Word

Meet the Living Word

BY Kenneth Copeland

For the word of God is quick, and powerful, and sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing even to the dividing asunder of soul and spirit, and of the joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart.

– Hebrews 4:12

The living Word of Almighty God is the only power strong enough to discipline your flesh. It's the only power that can cause you to think, look, talk and act like a born-again man.

When I became a Christian, I was dominated by a horrible smoking habit. I tried to quit every way I could think of but nothing worked. After months of struggling and failing, I decided to attend some meetings in Hilton Sutton's church in Houston, Texas. Before I went into those meetings, I tucked my cigarettes above the sun visor in my car and left them there.

Up to that time, I hadn't learned much of anything about the Word and had never been exposed to the power of God. So when I began to hear those ministers there preaching under the anointing of the Holy Spirit, it got my attention. I was caught up in the living Word. My desires changed. All I wanted was more of God. For the first time in my life, the Scriptures came alive.

When those meetings ended and I started driving back home, I found those old, stale cigarettes tucked up in my sun visor and realized I hadn't even missed them.

What happened? The Word separated me from the desire to smoke. The Word empowered me to discipline this flesh of mine. When I saw Jesus in the Word and under the anointing of Almighty God, I was totally set free, not only of the habit but of the desire!

Get caught up in the living Word today and discover the power that can set you forever free.

THE TABLE OF CELEBRATION

THE TABLE OF CELEBRATION
It’s a great day and a wonderful Sunday. I hope we all had a great Sunday service. As it’s usual to have a post on spirituality post every Sunday, today I will by God’s grace share the Word. The topic above, Table of Celebration was a word i received in my spirit while going to the Church this morning. It was so strong and it kept echoing all through the service.
I began to meditate and pray about clarity on this topic to be shared today.
Let’s look straight to the scriptures -the Bible, God’s Holy Word;

Psalm 23: 5.
You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies; You have anointed my head with oil; My cup overflows.

The table of celebration means there is celebration galore; it is not a one- time bout of celebration, but rather a momentous and continuous one. It is a table, it is established, when God sets a table of celebration for you, it is ‘Just There !’, no one or nothing can take it away.
However it is good to look at the nature of this table in the light of the scripture above.
This table is ‘prepared’ : God has a package with your name on it. It is not an accidental event, it is not a fluke, God has a deliberate agenda for your empowerment, all -round blessing and manifestation. God has deliberately prepared a table for you, you might not see it now, but he is preparing it and when He is done, it is fully laid out, it will make sense after all, because He has prepared it for YOU.
This table is first of all in God’s presence: The table is in God’s presence and because you are in His presence, you are made perfect, made whole and strengthened.
My Bible says in

Psam 16:11
You will make known to me the path of life; In Your presence is fullness of joy; In Your right hand there are pleasures forever.

It is a celebration table with an atmosphere of joy all around, can you see it! Do you believe and receive it now? God is a cheerful Dad, that love to see His children have lots of good things and enjoy life to the fullest.
This table is obviously in the presence of your enemies!: This means you are untouchable, this also connotes astounding protection and victory, your enemies, haters , doubters or critics or whoever they are can’t do nothing but be marvelled by how much God has come to help you. Also, I see ministry of angels on this note, they are assigned for your protection even at this table.
He anoints my head with oil: This table of celebration is the place of empowerment; the anointing is a seal of authority, empowerment for leadership, and everything will be determined by leadership, this comes with rising influence or authority- that means you are in charge. This is because God has taken charge and you now know what to do, you run with His will and then you are in charge, because you now represent God!

My Cup Overflows: This is celebration table prepared by God for YOU, and sure enough for your friends as well, because your enemies are there powerless and confounded, so your friends won’t do nothing but join the feast! Can you imagine what it looks like? If you have ever sat at a dinner table of a wealthy King, or Head of State, you know it would be filled with bounties and varieties, so this is no exception; it surpasses all you can imagine. The table of celebration ushers in a new season, your season of plenty and abundance, with your cup overflowing with oil. Your cup is your vessel, what you carry, and can receive with; this is an overflowing blessing beyond what can ever carry. Another thing here is that the size of your cup determines the relative level of your overflow...
What are the characteristics and prerequisite for this table of celebration...? We will check them subsequently...

Happy New month and do be blessed
