CROWNED WITH GLORY Friday 30 March


Open Heavens Devotional by Pastor E.A. Adeboye

Memorise: For thou hast made him a little lower than the angels, and hast crowned him with glory and honour. Psalm 8:5

Read: Psalm 8:4-5

The royalty a child of God is born into is an eternal one because our Father has an unchangeable Kingdom. When I was in primary school, we studied a subject called civics. During that subject period they could ask: Who is the minister of education and finance and you would give their names. But today, if you ask your child, who is the minister of education? That child may ask you: for which year? Because they change portfolio so often this days, particularly in a country like Nigeria. But in the Kingdom of God, if God makes you a minister or governor, it is forever! Praise God! Our Father also is the Great Physician according to Exodus 15:26 hence, all He needs do is speak and we are healed. Psalm 107:20 says He removes sicknesses just by the word of His mouth. Are you sick in your body, spirit, soul, finances, family or mind? Receive your healing now. You are healed by His stripes in Jesus name.

Psalm 24:7-10 describes our Father as the King of Glory. This is the reason He crowns His children with glory as stated in Psalm 8:4-5. Do you want to radiate that glory that will show forth your heavenly royalty to the world? All you need to do is to make your Father happy. Find time to always be in His glorious presence, feast on His Word, praise and worship Him and as you do these, before long, the glory that is on your Father will also be seen in your life. God’s glory can become a crown on your head. When God crowns you with glory, nobody – demon or circumstance – will treat you less than your royalty demands. It is then the enemies that come against you will accept their place under your feet (Luke 10:19). Whenever you go into His presence and spend quality time fellowshipping with Him, know that before you leave, He will crown you with glory! Never let any day go by without you wearing your crown!

PRAYER POINT:
Father, each day I come into Your presence, let your crown of glory be evident in my life.
 
Bible in one year: Mark 13-16

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...
