NO HIDING PLACE Saturday 7 May

Open Heavens Devotional by Pastor E.A. Adeboye


MEMORIZE: “If I say, surely the darkness shall cover me; even the night shall be light about me.” (Ps. 139:11).

READ: Psalms 139:7-12

Matthew 10:28 says the only One to be feared is the Almighty God because He can determine your end on earth and what happens to you in eternity. He sees everything and is everywhere at the same time. Psalm 139:1-12 says you cannot hide from God. Climb to any height, even the tallest building or mountain in the world, God sees you. Go to any depth below the earth surface and He will still see you. Verse 11 says, “If I say, surely the darkness shall cover me; even the night shall be light about me”. One thing that is common among evil doers is that they are friends with darkness. They carry out most of their activities in the night. Do you know that long before scientists manufactured night vision surveillance hardware, God saw in the dark? Darkness cannot hide anything from God. In fact, unlike human night vision which still has several limitations, God’s night vision is not different from regular vision in broad daylight. In other words, if you think by hiding at night to sin you are hiding your secrets, you are not. With God, there is no difference between night and day because He exists in the realm where all things are naked to Him. There is also no secret. What you call secret is common knowledge in Heaven and it is only a matter of time before it is exposed.

Just as God is omnipresent, so also is He the only way of salvation from Satan and his hosts. Some people want to be free from sickness and poverty, and they go to the one who gave them the problem in the first place. Unknown to them, instead of true deliverance, they get ensnared further. Some years ago a man in his quest for wealth swallowed a money charm. Instead of becoming rich, what he swallowed began to eat him up. When his date with death drew near, he ran to us at Ebute-Metta, Lagos. He was delivered. After observing his absence from church, we visited him to know why. He told us that he had swallowed the wrong charm the first time; that was why no money came. He informed us he had now swallowed the right charm and money had come. After seven years, his date with death drew near. He decided to escape to London thinking that the demons were confined to Africa. He died on board the London-bound plane. Are you in any cult? Have you made a pact with the powers of darkness? Jesus Christ is the only way to freedom. Confess your sins and receive Him into your heart today. Renounce and break all agreements with the devil and approach a genuine man of God for prayers.


KEY POINT:
Christianity is not just a way of life, but God’s only way of expressing His mind.

Bible in One year: Judg. 13-15

IDOLS FRUSTRATE EXPECTATIONS Monday 27 August

Open Heavens Devotional by Pastor E.A. Adeboye Memorise: The hope of the righteous shall be gladness: but the expectation of the wicked shall perish. Proverbs 10:28 Read: Isaiah 44:10-18 B efore you receive a prophetic declaration, check out the fruit of the vessel-the prophet, pastor, or servant of God, whether the fellow is still in league with God. Some people say, “thus says the Lord,” but the Lord did not say anything to them. Some of them heard from themselves and spoke. Be careful of what you accept as being from God. In Jeremiah 28:1-4, Hananiah a prophet prophesied that in two years God was going to set Israel free from the yoke of the king of Babylon, but it was all a lie! Imagine the joy of the people when they heard that. But after two years, and the prophecy did not come to pass, all the expectations of the people failed. Instead of two years, they spent 70 years. In others, the prophetic lies of prophets cannot change what God want to do or alter its tim...

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...
