ACTIVATE YOUR SPIRITUAL SENSES Tuesday 13 December


Open Heavens Devotional by Pastor E.A. Adeboye

MEMORIZE: “How sweet are thy words unto my taste! yea, sweater than honey to my mouth!” (Psalm 119:103).

READ: John 12:28-29

To get God’s best, you must be prepared to disengage your senses and engage faith. Like your physical senses, you have spiritual, invisible senses. Spiritual senses operate by faith in God and in His Word. By faith, it is possible to see the invisible. In Hebrews 11:27, through the eyes of faith Moses saw the invisible God. It is what you focus on that you will envision. You can see with the eyes of faith. Why do you think that Hebrews 11:2 commands us to look unto Jesus? It is to enable us see Him with the eyes of faith. Believe me, if your spiritual eyes are open to see the invisible, you will no longer fear the visible and invisible negative forces. If you doubt it, ask the servant of Elisha. He was afraid when his physical eyes saw the Syrian army but when God opened his spiritual eyes, he saw chariots and horses of fire. Immediately, his fear took flight. Physical senses cause fear but spiritual senses increase your faith and dependence on God. If your spiritual eyes are open, you will frequently behold the superior provision available to you and, as a result, you will not be moved by the temporal.

You can also hear the inaudible if you apply your spiritual ears. To hear God speak to you, it is important to have listening ears. You must be ready to hear His Word and do it. You must also be prepared to wait on Him to hear what He will say to you (Ps. 85:8). If your spiritual ears are open, you will hear what God is saying to you at any given time. While people may be hearing thundering, those whose spiritual ears are open will be receiving very distinct divine messages (John 12:28-29). With open ears, you will also discern the plans of your enemies and know how to handle them. However, apart from seeing and hearing, you can also taste and see that the Lord is good (Ps. 34:8). When you apply your spiritual tongue, you will know that God’s Word is sweater than honey (Ps. 119:103). Yes, you can feel God. You can touch Him with your hands of faith, and the benefit of such sensitivity will affect your entire life. To do these, be born-again and baptized in the Holy Spirit. Pray frequently in the Spirit daily. Be sensitive to the Spirit and cultivate His friendship.

ACTION POINT
When your spiritual senses are alert, you will be in control of both spiritual and physical territories.
Pray: Father, make me spiritually sensitive.

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
