Open Heavens Devotional by Pastor E.A. Adeboye
Memorise: The slothful hideth in his bosom; it grieveth him
to bring it again to his mouth. Proverbs 26:15
Read: Judges 15:11-19
One of the forces capable of tying a man’s hands is
poverty. Several people would like to build churches for God, but for poverty.
Some people would like to dance all the way from their village to our annual
Convention if only they could afford the bus fare. Some believers grieve over
the needy state of fellow believers, and the church of God, but they are
helplessly tied down by poverty. Everything tying your hands shall be removed
today in Jesus name. In 1 Kings 17:10-12, when the man of God came to the widow
of Zarephath, and requested for food, she told him, she would have loved to
spend lavishly on him but her hands were tied. Poverty keeps its victims as
servants of those that have already escaped from its prison. You shall escape
from the prison house of poverty in Jesus name.
Another thing that can bind a man’s hands is sickness. The
sick lacks physical energy and vitality to undertake basic assignments. In
Matthew 8:14-15, Jesus paid a visit to Peter and met his mother-in-law bed
ridden. She knew she was supposed to entertain her guest. She desired to do so
too. But she could not get up from the bed until Jesus healed her. Immediately
she was healed, she ministered to the Lord. Some ministers and workers are not
in excellent state of health. This is seriously affecting their secular and
ministerial performance. They are willing but the hands of their well being are
tied. There is no way you can fulfill your destiny if your health is tied. Some
have died out of ill-health without completing their assignments. That shall not
be your portion. Every sickness tying your well being is destroyed. From now
on, you will live in sound health. Your body shall be strong. Your body will
remain strong until you fulfil your destiny and assignment. You are released
from the clutches of sickness and diseases today!
ACTION POINT:
Ask God to destroy forces limiting your potentials in every
facet of life.
