GOD’S SPECIAL LOOK Tuesday 15 November


Open Heavens Devotional by Pastor E.A. Adeboye

MEMORIZE: “And God looked upon the children of Israel, and God had respect unto them.” (Exodus 2:25).

READ: John 9:1-7

What does the phrase ‘And God looked upon the Israelites’ mean? It simply means God focused His attention on them in particular. In John 9:1-7, while Jesus and His disciples passed by, they saw a man who was born blind. This man had been on that spot for years and the Lord had been passing by and seeing him there all the time. But on this occasion, when Jesus saw him, Heaven was ready to attend to him. Similarly, John 5:2-9 tells us of a man who had been at the pool of Bethesda for 38 years. One day, Jesus saw him and singled him out of the crowd and he got a miracle. The day the lord sees you specially, you can be sure you will share your testimony. This season, the Lord will look on you with compassion and do something about your case in Jesus name.

During one Holy Ghost Service, it was prayer time so I asked everybody to pray. I closed my eyes and began to pray when the Lord asked me to open my eyes, and pointed out a lady in the crowd. He asked me to go and tell her to weep no more. I went and delivered the message. She had been barren for several years. Nine months later, she came with her baby and I began to weep for joy. What is that thing causing sorrow in your heart today? Stop weeping! It shall become a thing of joy.

Another phrase in Exodus 2:25 says ‘God had respect unto them’. This means that God acknowledged them. God knows everything He created. According to Matthew 10:29, no sparrow falls to the ground without God’s knowledge. Matthew 10:30 says God has numbered every strand of hair on your head. God takes notice when a hair drops from your head; would He not therefore care about what happens to you? God cares so much for you. Are you going through some very trying moments? God does not need to be informed. He already knows. He cares. Look up to Him and call on His Name and He will respond. This season, the Lord will acknowledge you. He will arise on your behalf: He will bring that challenging situation under control.

PRAYER POINT:
Oh Lord! Look on me and turn my situation around.
 
Bible in One year: Ezek. 12-14

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
