HE HAS YOUR PARTICULARS Tuesday 22 November


Open Heavens Devotional by Pastor E.A. Adeboye

MEMORIZE: “Can any hide himself in secret places that I shall not see him? saith the LORD. Do not I fill heaven and earth? Saith the LORD” (Jer. 23:24)

READ: Acts 9:10-12

In today’s reading, while sending Ananais to Saul, God gave him Saul’s particulars. God knows you by name. He knows your location. He knows where you reside, work or school. He knows your street. He knows what you do every second. Since God has your particulars, as long as you satisfy Him, your miracle will locate you where you are. Saul, after his encounter with Jesus on the way to Damascus, was temporarily blind and could not move about as before, yet, his miracle located him. As you are reading this Devotional today, your miracle will locate you in Jesus name.

Exodus 2:25 says, “And God looked upon the children of Israel, and God had respect unto them”. To ‘respect’ is to ‘acknowledge’. When we come together in our big meetings, God knows and notes what everyone is doing. While we are praying, He knows those who are sighing, praying, groaning and those about to give up. Be assured that He cares for you and He will not allow that problem to swallow you up. This is why He promised to make a way of escape (1 Cor. 10:13). A sister came to see me in the office in the early 80’s. While on her way, the Lord clearly instructed me to embrace her. I protested because He was the One who asked brothers to keep safe distance from sisters. And I warned my pastors not to do so to prevent temptation. But eventually, I succumbed to His voice and embraced her as she came in. Overwhelmed, she began to cry. Thereafter, she confessed she decided to see me for the last time before going to commit suicide. She had believed God had forgotten her but because I embraced her, she was reassured that God had not forgotten her. Are you like this lady? Are you thinking that God has forgotten you? Have you come to a point where you think it is better to end your life? It is all a lie! God has not forsaken you! The problems and hopelessness surrounding you are only a mirage. God is nearer to you in that situation than the very clothes you are wearing. He loves you. Even when your friends, close relatives or colleagues forget you, God can never forget you. He loves you. Cast your burden on Him. Call upon His Name today and He will make a way for you.

KEY POINT:
If you are not in sin, God is closest to you when you think He has forsaken you. A sigh, whisper or wish could make Him to show His presence. Embrace Him today.
 
Bible in One year: 1 Chron. 14-16

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...
