YOUR TOMORROW IS OK Wednesday 3 August

Open Heavens Devotional by Pastor E.A. Adeboye


MEMORIZE: “Say ye to the righteous, that it shall be well with him: for they shall eat the fruit of their doings” (Isaiah 3:10).

READ: Galatians 6:7-8

A look through God’s unchanging Word assures us that there is no need to worry about the future; even if you are presently undergoing a sorrowful situation; it will not last! Psalm 30:5 says, “For his anger endureth but a moment; in his favour is life: weeping may endure for a night, but joy cometh in the morning”. Oh! How reassuring! Based on God’s unchanging Word, I am bold to say that if you are weeping right now, by tomorrow morning, laughter will fill your mouth. Occasionally, some people are apprehensive about the future. They may say: ‘Thank God things are going well now, but I need to be on the lookout because the tide may turn’. But what does God say about this? Proverbs 10:22 says that when God blesses, there is no sorrow added. Are you doing well but you secretly nurse the fear that things may go wrong? Rebuke that thought now! It is not your portion! Things shall get better for you this year.

However, the Bible never said ours shall be a challenge-free journey. Yes, there will be several challenges or difficulties but it is written that we are more than conquerors in all situations through Jesus Christ. This means that even before we confront such challenges, the contest has been decided in our favour. Are you faced with joblessness? You shall overcome! Are you battling with how to fund your business project or your education? You shall overcome! Has your flesh been bringing you into sin on a continuous basis? You shall overcome! In a short while, when you look around for that nagging problem, all you will see is the solution. Moreover, for your tomorrow to be alright, you must be very careful about your actions today. As for your past, as long as the Lord Jesus Christ has washed you in His blood on the day you gave your life to Him, that was settled. Old things have passed away (2 Cor. 5:17). Regarding your present, it can only be better especially when you do only what is right, since the law of harvest ensures that what you do today will determine your tomorrow. As the Omega, He controls tomorrow but is interested in knowing how you will use the free will He has given to you to determine your future. Submit totally to God, resist the devil and ensure whatever you do glorifies His name. Your future shall be alright!


KEY POINT
Your future is something nobody else but you should determine. What are you making of it today?

Bible in One year: 2 Thess. 1-3, Obad. 1

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...

DANGERS OF LOVING THE WORLD Sunday 4 December

Open Heavens Devotional by Pastor E.A. Adeboye MEMORIZE: “For all that is in the world, the lust of the flesh, and the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life, is not of the father, but is of the world.” (John 2:16). READ: 2 Timothy 4:10-11 W hen you love the world, it can affect salient arrears of your life. This is why we must pray for leaders to shun worldly lusts and focus on the things of God. The love of the world can stand between you and your requests. A leader who loves the world will be incapable of making effective intercession for the flock. The love of the world also terminates spiritual life. The fellow who loves the world will find his or her love for God ebbing by the day. With love for the world, it will be impossible to love God with all your heart. Yet, God demands 100% love from you. “And thou shalt love the LORD thy God with all thine heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy might” (Deut. 6:5). “For Demas hath forsaken me, ha...

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...
