SAY NO TO SUICIDE! Saturday 23 April

Open Heavens Devotional by Pastor E.A. Adeboye


MEMORIZE: “Thou shall not kill” (Exo. 20:13).

READ: Acts 1:16-20

Although there is an appointment with death, it can be fast-forwarded by touching God’s anointed. This season, all agents of darkness plotting your death and down fall, shall go earlier to keep their appointment with death, long before its time in Jesus name. Apart from touching God’s anointed, some people deliberately fast-forward their appointment with death by eating, or drinking, or doing what could terminate their lives. This is suicide, it can either be immediate or come slowly. Such people are following the steps of their mentor-Judas Iscariot. Acts 1:18 says of him, “Now this man purchased a field with the reward of iniquity; and falling headlong, he burst asunder in the midst , and all his bowels gushed out”. Judas was so disappointed with himself after he sold his innocent Master that he allowed spirits of suicide to take control of him. All he had was remorse—just bitter feelings and regret but not godly sorrow which leads to true repentance and forgiveness (2 Cor. 7:10). Are you under demonic pressure to take your life, jump off a moving vehicle, jump off a cliff or into the lagoon? You are surrounded by suicide spirits that want to fast-forward your appointment with death. In the name of Jesus Christ, I rebuke every suicide spirit around you to loose their hold over your life now. You shall not die. Every plan to fast-forward your appointment with death is cancelled now.

However, anyone smoking cigarettes, cigar or taking alcohol is fast-forwarding his or her appointment with death. If you are taking mind-bending substances such as heroine, cocaine, marijuana etc., you are fast-forwarding your appointment with death. This is slow suicide. You have no right to stop a life you did not start. For this reason, eternal hell is the dwelling place for those who commit suicide. Do you know that the devil deceives some people by telling them that their suffering is second to none and they should just end it all and rest? But the bible says there is no such rest for the wicked. Instead of rest, they will find themselves in burning hell. This time, it is suffering that is forever. Say no to suicide! Stop taking anything that can kill you. Your life is precious to God.


KEY POINT
Through unchecked self-medication, some people have fast-forwarded their appointment with death. Be careful!

Bible in one year: Lev. 20-23

BENEFITS OF UNITY Sunday 27 November

Open Heavens Devotional by Pastor E.A. Adeboye MEMORIZE: “Again I say unto you, That if two of you shall agree on earth as touching any thing that they shall ask, it shall be done for them of my Father which is in heaven.” (Matt. 18:19) READ: Acts 2:1-4 U nity is a powerful force in the universe. However, uniting against God, His Word or His children causes God to arise in defence of His Name. This is the other side of power of unity. Barring this, unity can accomplish almost anything on the face of the earth. In Genesis 11:5-6, God said that if the people of the earth were left with one language and as united as they were in building the city and tower, they will be unstoppable. The united are unstoppable. Unity is a powerful tool for achieving plans and purposes. But if operated in righteousness within the Christian fold, it is even more powerful. “Again I say unto you, That if two of you shall agree on earth as touching any thing that they shall ask, it sha

YOUR VOICE SHALL BE HEARD Wednesday 26 October

Open Heavens Devotional by Pastor E.A. Adeboye MEMORIZE: “As soon as they hear of me, they shall obey me: the strangers shall submit themselves unto me.” (Psalm 18:44). READ: Psalm 18:43-45 W hen Bartimaeus was steps away from his breakthrough, the crowd around him shouted him down. But by the grace of God, he doubled his efforts and cried out the more. He simply told the crowd: ‘If you think you have heard noise you have not heard anything yet’. The reality is that if you need help and send a faint cry in the midst of a crowd, they will want to shut you up. But if your cry is unparalleled, defying the voices of the opposition, there would be a general consensus by the crowd for you to be attended to, at least so that they can have their peace. This season, by the mercy of God, there will be a meeting of the crowd hindering your blessing and their consensus would be that you receive immediate attention. Another lesson from this story is that while peop
