🎊♨️ OPEN HEAVENS ♨️ 

DAILY DEVOTIONAL


DATE: SATURDAY 31ST JULY 2021

THEME: WHAT ARE YOUR PRIORITIES?

  

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


Bible Reading: John 4:23-24.

23 But the hour cometh, and now is, when the true worshippers shall worship the Father in spirit and in truth: for the Father seeketh such to worship him.

24 God is a Spirit: and they that worship him must worship him in spirit and in truth.


MESSAGE:

The Scriptures present us with a marked difference between the priorities of our Lord Jesus Christ and the concerns of His disciples. Just like His disciples, many of us are too bothered with how to meet our physical, psychological and emotional needs, rather than on spiritual things. We immerse ourselves in temporal concerns. Jesus assured His disciples that the Father knew their needs and would always provide for them (Luke 11:11-13). Jesus described what should be the topmost priority of all Heaven-bound Christians in Matthew 6:33:

“But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you.”


It is often said that passionate people make the greatest contributions to the society. Be passionate about the things of God. Seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, so that the necessities of daily life will be provided. It is time to reprioritize your life and passion.


God is called the God of glory in Act 7:2. There is a great expectation for all who serve God in holiness and truth. Everyone who dedicates themselves to serving God in spirit and in truth will enjoy divine favor is better than many years of labor. Divine favor is superior to luck or good fortune. I pray that you will experience divine favor from today, in Jesus’ name.


Heaven-bound Christians are focused on serving God in spirit and in truth (John 2:24). Material and worldly possessions are secondary to them, despite God’s assurance of His provision. There is fruitfulness for all who consecrate themselves to serving God in spirit and truth. Psalm 92:12 says:

“The righteous shall flourish like the palm tree: he shall grow like a cedar in Lebanon.”


There is an assurance of victory over all known and unknown enemies for those who serve God in righteousness. Psalm 132:18 says:

“His enemies will I clothe with shame: but upon himself shall his crown flourish.”


Are you consecrated to God? Do you love Him? Is the righteousness of God your priority? If your answer to each of these questions is ‘yes’, blessed are you. If not, seek a deeper relationship with the Lord from today and you would be blessed also.


PRAYER POINT:

Father, please grant me the grace to consecrate myself unto You. Help me to make righteousness my utmost priority, in Jesus’ name.


BIBLE IN ONE YEAR:

Job 21-22.

 

AUTHOR:

PASTOR E. A. ADEBOYE 

  

HYMN 11: I NEED THEE EV’RY HOUR.

1. I need Thee every hour, most gracious Lord;

No tender voice like Thine can peace afford.


  Refrain:

I need Thee, oh, I need Thee;

Every hour I need Thee;

Oh, bless me now, my Savior,

I come to Thee.


2. I need Thee every hour, stay Thou nearby;

Temptations lose their pow’r when Thou art nigh.


3. I need Thee every hour, in joy or pain;

Come quickly and abide, or life is vain.


4. I need Thee every hour; teach me Thy will;

And Thy rich promises in me fulfill.


5. I need Thee every hour, most Holy One;

Oh, make me Thine indeed, Thou blessed Son.

 🎊♨️ OPEN HEAVENS ♨️🎊           DAILY DEVOTIONAL DATE:- THURSDAY 15TH JULY 2021. THEME: FAITH: A DIMENSION OF REALITY.    MEMORISE:  Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen. Hebrews11:1 BIBLE READING: GENESIS 12:1-4. 1 Now the LORD had said unto Abram, Get thee out of thy country, and from thy kindred, and from thy father's house, unto a land that I will shew thee: 2 And I will make of thee a great nation, and I will bless thee, and make thy name great; and thou shalt be a blessing: 3 And I will bless them that bless thee, and curse him that curseth thee: and in thee shall all families of the earth be blessed. 4 So Abram departed, as the LORD had spoken unto him; and Lot went with him: and Abram was seventy and five years old when he departed out of Haran. MESSAGE: The concept of faith is a great one and it is backed by evidence. For example, Hebrews 11:8 says: “By faith Abraham, when he was called to go out into a place which he should aft

 🎊♨️ OPEN HEAVENS ♨️🎊           DAILY DEVOTIONAL DATE: SUNDAY 15TH AUGUST 2021. THEME: THE AUTHORITY OF BELIEVERS.    MEMORISE: See, I have this day set thee over the nations and over the kingdoms, to root out, and to pull down, and to destroy, and to throw down, to build, and to plant. Jeremiah 1:10 BIBLE READING: JEREMIAH 1:7-10 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. 8 Be not afraid of their faces: for I am with thee to deliver thee, saith the LORD. 9 Then the LORD put forth his hand, and touched my mouth. And the LORD said unto me, Behold, I have put my words in thy mouth. 10 See, I have this day set thee over the nations and over the kingdoms, to root out, and to pull down, and to destroy, and to throw down, to build, and to plant. MESSAGE:     P ower, particularly the one given by God is sweet. However, there is something sweeter than power and that is authority. When Go

 🎊♨️ OPEN HEAVENS ♨️🎊           DAILY DEVOTIONAL DATE: WEDNESDAY 28TH JULY 2021. THEME: THE BLOOD OF JESUS.    MEMORISE: For the life of the flesh is in the blood: and I have given it to you upon the altar to make an atonement for your souls: for it is the blood that maketh an atonement for the soul. Leviticus 17:11 BIBLE READING: HEBREWS 9:24-28 24 For Christ is not entered into the holy places made with hands, which are the figures of the true; but into heaven itself, now to appear in the presence of God for us: 25 Nor yet that he should offer himself often, as the high priest entereth into the holy place every year with blood of others; 26 For then must he often have suffered since the foundation of the world: but now once in the end of the world hath he appeared to put away sin by the sacrifice of himself. 27 And as it is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the judgment: 28 So Christ was once offered to bear the sins of many; and unto them that look for him shall he ap
