OPEN HEAVEN 31 OCTOBER 2021 MESSAGE

Many Christians are fearful in the face of attacks from the kingdom of darkness. This attitude is unlike that of Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego in Babylon.

These young Hebrew men knew their God to be strong and mighty and they made bold to declare this to King Nebuchadnezzar (Daniel 3:16-18).

Our God is strong and mighty in battle. He has never lost and can never lose any war. As have preached on many occasions, our God is a war-Lord on land, according to 2 Chronicles 20:22-23.

Also, He is more effective than any Chief of Naval Staff when it comes to sea battles, according to Exodus 14:23-31.

The Lord Strong and Mighty is more effective than any Chief of Air Staff when it comes to offensive air battles, according to Isaiah 30:30.

This was proven in the battle He fought on behalf of the children of Israel under the leadership of Joshua in Joshua 10:11: “And it came to pass, as they fled from before Israel, and were in the going down to Bethhoron, that the Lord cast down great stones from heaven upon them unto Azekah, and they died: they were more which died with hailstones than they whom the children of Israel slew with the sword.”

You have no reason to fear any attack of the enemies. The Psalmist says: “The Lord is my light and my salvation; whom shall I fear? the Lord is the strength of my life; of whom shall I be afraid?” “Psalm 27:1”

Isaiah 59:20 gives the condition that guarantees divine defence for the children of God: ..unto them that turn from transgression… The Lord can only fight on behalf of those who have reconciled with Him through genuine repentance.

Sin exposes an individual to enemy attacks without any spiritual defence, according to Isaiah 59:1-2.

Therefore, ensure that your life is void of any iniquity that could make you vulnerable to the attack of the enemy.

Our God is The Lord Strong and Mighty, The Lord Mighty in Battle, according to Psalms 24:8.

This is the testimony of every true child of God. The Lord will prove Himself strong and mighty on your behalf now and always, in Jesus name.

Father, please show Yourself strong and mighty in my life that my enemies may fear, repent and surrender to Your authority, in the mighty name of Jesus.

When a father wants to pass information across to his child, he calls for a discussion but if the child is unavailable physically, he uses other means.

God our Father instructs, inspires and corrects us through different means. He can choose to speak to our hearts or through a passage of the Bible. However, sometimes, He communicates through visions and dreams as He did with Joseph.

Dreams occur in when we are asleep. Joseph had dreams that gave a hint of his future. However, the events that followed the dreams were far from its fulfilment. Probably, while he was in prison, he would have questioned the dream. He would have thought the dream would not come to pass.

However, at the right time his dream came to pass. Do you have dreams of a great future and your reality doesn’t look like it? Don’t be worried. As you keep following the Lord, He will preserve your dreams and ensure they become actualized in His time.

26. If any man come to me, and hate not his father, and mother, and wife, and children, and brethren, and sisters, yea, and his own life also, he cannot be my disciple.

27. And whosoever doth not bear his cross, and come after me, cannot be my disciple.

OPEN HEAVEN 28 OCTOBER 2021 MESSAGE

It takes unfailing determination to go through life with Jesus Christ. Accepting Jesus as the Lord and Saviour includes accepting Him with His yoke in other words, submitting totally to His will. Indeed, to become a true disciple of Jesus, a person must subject his or her will to Him in totality.

The Bible says in Mark 8:34: “And when he had called the people unto him with his disciples also, he said unto them, Whosoever will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow me.

Identifying with Jesus requires the belief in His standards and the commitment to live by them. This however also brings the knowledge of truth and genuine freedom (John 8:31-32).

Submitting to the Lordship of Jesus Christ however, would also bring about persecution from the world.

Our Lord Jesus Christ told us in John 15:18-19 that the world will hate us merely because He chose us to become His disciples.

Many so-called born-again Christians and even some leaders in the Church today want to follow Jesus but would not accept any doctrine that preaches Suffering for the sake of Christ.

One wonders whether such people are serving the same God as Apostle Paul who prayed to know the fellowship of Jesus suffering (Philippians 3:10).

Joseph of Arimathaea and Nicodemus came forward to claim the body of Jesus for burial in spite of the fact that he was condemned and killed like a criminal.

This is noteworthy because they were important personalities but that did not deter them from identifying with Jesus, even in death (John 19:38-42).

Beloved, let us take the yoke of Jesus Christ upon ourselves. We have to deny ourselves and carry our cross daily. His yoke is however easy and light (Matthew 11:29-30).

Those that are not in Christ are under the grievous yoke of the kingdom of darkness that would ultimately lead to eternal damnation.

Surrender all to Jesus Christ today and He will give you rest.

3. Then Judas, which had betrayed him, when he saw that he was condemned, repented himself, and brought again the thirty pieces of silver to the chief priests and elders,

4. Saying, I have sinned in that I have betrayed the innocent blood. And they said, What is that to us? see thou to that.

5. And he cast down the pieces of silver in the temple, and departed, and went and hanged himself.

6. And the chief priests took the silver pieces, and said, It is not lawful for to put them into the treasury, because it is the price of blood.

7. And they took counsel, and bought with them the potter’s field, to bury strangers in.

8. Wherefore that field was called, The field of blood, unto this day.

OPEN HEAVEN 27 OCTOBER 2021 MESSAGE

The type of sorrow that Judas Iscariot experienced is undesirable. I pray that you will not experience such sorrow in your life, in Jesus name.

Peter’s sorrow is seen as godly because it led to repentance while that of Judas Iscariot is ungodly because it led to his death (2 Corinthians 7:10).

When a person thinks he or she can outsmart the Lord, the result is ungodly sorrow. What makes man think he can outsmart God is greed and materialistic tendencies.

1 Timothy 6:6-8 says: “But godliness with contentment is great gain. For we brought nothing into this world, and it is certain we can carry nothing out. And having food and raiment let us be therewith content.”

Judas Iscariot obviously had allowed greed to establish and grow within his heart. It was recorded in John 12:6 that he had been stealing from the purse Jesus asked him to keep.

The greed then grew to the extent that he decided to betray the Lord Jesus for thirty pieces of silver. He probably imagined that he could swindle the Jewish leaders.

Judas probably expected that Jesus could not be arrested because he had witnessed Him escaping from the hands of the Jews before (Luke 4:28-30).

Judas however came to know the impact of what he had done when he realised that Jesus surrendered Himself to be arrested and was condemned.

This made Judas very sorrowful. Matthew 27:3, Matthew 27:5 says: “Then Judas, which had betrayed him, when he saw that he was condemned, repented himself, and brought again the thirty pieces of silver to the chief priests and elders, And he cast down the pieces of silver in the temple, and departed, and went and hanged himself.”

This type of sorrow however is ungodly as it led to despair, frustration, regret and eventually suicide. Some Christians today also exhibit ungodly sorrow not for committing sin, but for getting caught.

This kind of sorrow does not lead to genuine repentance but rather dries up the bones as we read in our memory verse today. May this never be our portion, in the mighty name of Jesus.

OPEN HEAVEN 27 OCTOBER 2021 PRAYER POINT

Father, please don’t let the lust of the eye, the lust of the flesh and pride of life drown me in ungodly sorrow, in Jesus’ name.

OPEN HEAVEN FOR TEENS 27 OCTOBER 2021 MESSAGE

The Bible categorizes believers into two: the sheep and the goats. This classification is based on the condition of our heart and willingness to follow the Master as He leads.

The sheep has a good relationship with the Shepherd in the sense that it doesn’t wander away from the company of His fellowship, they stay together.

Contrary to general belief, a sheep is not foolish or sluggish, it only follows the leading of the shepherd dogmatically.

As children of God, we are expected to be like the sheep which is meek in nature, quiet and gentle. You should not struggle with Gods leading if indeed you’re a sheep. Like Jesus said, you will know His voice and be ready to follow it.

The reason many make mistakes is that they are like goats which are head strong in their pursuit irrespective of what God is saying about it. They don’t listen to corrections, instead, they run from the shepherd if corrected with the rod.

A sheep however, would stay in the flock even after being corrected by the shepherd. Don’t run from pillar to post when you’re corrected. Be like a sheep!.

60. And Peter said, Man, I know not what thou sayest. And immediately, while he yet spake, the cock crew.

61. And the Lord turned, and looked upon Peter. And Peter remembered the word of the Lord, how he had said unto him, Before the cock crow, thou shalt deny me thrice.

62. And Peter went out, and wept bitterly.

OPEN HEAVEN 26 OCTOBER 2021 MESSAGE

When Peter realized that he had failed to fulfil his promise never to deny Jesus Christ, the Bible says ..he went out, and wept bitterly (Matthew 26:75).

This is what the Bible calls godly sorrow. Godly sorrow has its blessing, according to todays memory verse. ln the gospel of Matthew 5:4 we read: “Blessed are they that mourn: for they shall be comforted.”

When an individual is confronted with the reality of the sinful life he or she is living and the certainty of hell, the fellow would mourn in repentance, if his or her heart is right with God.

The best way to mourn for ones sins is to confess and forsake them. Proverbs 28:13-14 says: “He that covereth his sins shall not prosper: but whoso confesseth and forsaketh them shall have mercy. Happy is the man that feareth alway: but he that hardeneth his heart shall fall into mischief.”

The story of the Pharisee and the publican (Luke 18:10-14) further illustrates godly sorrow, which brings about repentance. The Pharisee went to the temple only to begin to praise himself for all his good deeds. The Publican however, smote his chest and mourned for his sins.

The truth of the matter is that the Almighty God considers what we count as our righteousness as nothing but filthy rags, as we read in Isaiah 64:6 “But we are all as an unclean thing, and all our righteousnesses are as filthy rags; and we all do fade as a leaf; and our iniquities, like the wind, have taken us away.”

As Christians, we should not pile up unconfessed sins and so rob ourselves of the needed revival.

Beloved, let us examine ourselves and see where we are falling short of Gods grace of living holy. Let us repent and come back to our first love if at all we have lost our way.

Revelation 2:4-5 says: “Nevertheless I have somewhat against thee, because thou hast left thy first love. Remember therefore from whence thou art fallen, and repent, and do the first works…”

I pray that the Lord will revive you today, in Jesus name.
