 🎊♨️ OPEN HEAVENS ♨️🎊
          DAILY DEVOTIONAL


DATE: THURSDAY 29TH JULY 2021.


THEME: THE FOR BODILY EXERCISE.

  

MEMORISE:

For bodily exercise profiteth little: but godliness is profitable unto all things, having promise of the life that now is, and of that which is to come.

1 Timothy 4:8 


BIBLE READING: 3 JOHN 2

2 Beloved, I wish above all things that thou mayest prosper and be in health, even as thy soul prospereth.


MESSAGE:

   Every sane person wishes to be healthy, wealthy, fulfilled and have longevity. 1 Chronicles 29:26-28 says:

“Thus David the son of Jesse reigned over all Israel…..And he died in a good old age, full of days, riches, and honour:….”


Therefore, good health, long life and prosperity are the heritage of God’s children. Bodily exercise may indeed profit little compared to the spiritual benefits of godliness, but a healthy body is vital to successful living and longevity.


Man is a tripartite being. The Bible teaches that man consist of the spirit, soul and body. God is interested in our good health- physically. He desires that we should be sound and complete- spirit, soul and body. This healing of the whole man starts in our spirit, it begins when God touches our spirit with His Holy Ghost. Romans 8:16 says:

“The Spirit itself beareth witness with our spirit, that we are the children of God:”


God created the human body to be rugged. However, good food and regular exercise, and daily rest are vital for a healthy body.


A healthy body is required to carry out daily human endeavors. More so, divine assignments are usually tedious and demanding physically, emotionally and spiritually. Therefore, fitness and sound health are two factors that make God appoint people in their youth for special assignments. That is why strength and all-round fitness are common attributes of those that God used in the Bible.


Abraham was energetic and fit enough to produce children at over a hundred years of age (Genesis 25:1-4). Moses trekked through the wilderness and climbed mountains at over eighty years of age (Exodus 7:7). David displayed agility and strength in the fight against lions, bears, Goliath and various armies, even from his youth, Elijah exhibited speed and stamina, as he was aided by the Holy Spirit to outrun the chariot of king Ahab. The exploits of Joshua, Caleb, Samson, Deborah, Peter, Paul, Stephen, Philip, John the Beloved and others, show clearly that they were physically fit.


Bodily exercise is required to keep the body fit and strong for the accomplishment of great and mighty things God.


ACTION POINT:

Henceforth, ensure that you get involved in regular exercise for healthy living even as your soul continues to prosper.


BIBLE IN ONE YEAR:

Psalm 87-89.

 

AUTHOR:

PASTOR E. A. ADEBOYE 

  

HYMN 1: ALL HAIL THE POW’R.

1. All hail the pow’r of Jesus’ Name!

Let angels prostrate fall;

Bring forth the royal diadem,

And crown Him Lord of all!


2. Ye chosen seed of Israel’s race,

Ye ransomed from the fall,

Hail Him Who saves you by His grace,

And crown Him Lord of all!


3. Let every kindred, every tribe,

On this terrestrial ball,

To Him all majesty ascribe,

And crown Him Lord of all!


4. Oh, that with yonder sacred throng

We at His feet may fall!

We’ll join the everlasting song,

And crown Him Lord of all!

 🎊♨️ 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

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.

 🎊♨️ 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
