IN NEED OF DELIVERANCE? Tuesday 6 March


Open Heavens Devotional by Pastor E.A. Adeboye

Memorise: Every branch in me that beareth not fruit he taketh away: and every branch that beareth fruit, he purgeth it, that it may bring forth more fruit. John 15:2

Read: John 15:1-2

As seen in Revelation 3:8 and according to 2 Corinthians 12:9, if your strength is small but Jesus is with you, you will achieve more than the fellow who has greater strength but lacks His backing. When God backs you, He will make things easy for you. In addition, if He is the One who opened that door for you, no matter what the enemies do, they will not be able to shut it. God can open to you the door of missionary opportunity. From the example of Apostle Paul, while at Ephesus, the Lord opened opportunities to win souls to him in spite of the opposition. One way God rewards soul winners is by creating more opportunities to witness. For those who are shy to preach the Gospel, know that the most challenging step is to win the first soul. You will find soul winning much more easier after you take in your first catch. It is commonly said that practice makes perfect. When you win souls, the anointing to rake in more is released. When last did you win souls to Christ?

Moreover, you will also notice that the more you turn down an opportunity to win souls to Christ, the more difficult it becomes to speak to next soul that comes your way. When this continues, Satan will permanently shut your mouth for a whole month, or for a period. This is bondage! If the mouth the Lord gave to you to declare Him to men is used for everything else other than that, you are in bondage. A lot of Christians have been delivered from sin but need deliverance from the spirit of fear refraining them from preaching the Gospel. Do not deceive yourself that you are pleasing God when you do not win souls. You displease God big time! If your position as a pastor or senior pastor is the excuse for not winning souls, it is better you quit that office and regularly win souls than retain the office without winning souls.

ACTION POINT:
You are won to win others. Go out and win a soul today!
 
Bible in one year: Job 21-24

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
