OPEN HEAVEN 10 JULY 2021 SATURDAY

OPEN HEAVEN 10 JULY 2021 MEMORISE: As we have therefore opportunity, let us do good unto all men, especially unto them who are of the household of faith. Galatians 6:10

OPEN HEAVEN 10 JULY 2021 READ: ROMANS 15:23-29

23 But now having no more place in these parts, and having a great desire these many years to come unto you;

24 Whensoever I take my journey into Spain, I will come to you: for I trust to see you in my journey, and to be brought on my way thitherward by you, if first I be somewhat filled with your company.

25 But now I go unto Jerusalem to minister unto the saints.

26 For it hath pleased them of Macedonia and Achaia to make a certain contribution for the poor saints which are at Jerusalem.

27 It hath pleased them verily; and their debtors they are. For if the Gentiles have been made partakers of their spiritual things, their duty is also to minister unto them in carnal things.

28 When therefore I have performed this, and have sealed to them this fruit, I will come by you into Spain.

29 And I am sure that, when I come unto you, I shall come in the fulness of the blessing of the gospel of Christ.

Good morning beloved, have a blessed Saturday.

PERSONAL DAILY CONFESSION: I confess today, the grace to live a life worthy of celebration rest upon my destiny, in the name of Jesus Christ. Amen

OPEN HEAVEN 10 JULY 2021 MESSAGE

In today’s Scripture Reading, Apostle Paul teaches us one missing ingredient of true discipleship in today’s contemporary Church: the ministry of care.

Despite the great anointing with which Apostle Paul was ministering to the Jews and Gentiles alike, he was still particular about the ministry of care.

Jesus Christ taught on the importance of hospitality when he said:

“For whosoever shall give you a cup of water to drink in my name, because ye belong to Christ, verily I say unto you, he shall not lose his reward.” Mark 9:41

In Matthew 25:35-40 He says:

“……For I was an hungred, and ye gave me meat: I was thirsty, and ye gave me drink: I was a stranger, and ye took me in: Naked, and ye clothed me: I was sick, and ye visited me: I was in prison, and ye came unto me. Then shall the righteous answer him, saying, Lord, when saw we thee an hungred, and fed thee? or thirsty, and gave thee drink? When saw we thee a stranger, and took thee in? or naked, and clothed thee? Or when saw we thee sick, or in prison, and came unto thee? And the King shall answer and say unto them, Verily I say unto you, Inasmuch as ye have done it unto one of the least of these my brethren, ye have done it unto me.”

The Bible reinforces this in James 2:15-16:

“If a brother or sister be naked, and destitute of daily food, And one of you say unto them, Depart in peace, be ye warmed and filled; notwithstanding ye give them not those things which are needful to the body; what doth it profit?”

Children of God must engage in the ministry of care along with any other that we may have been called into. This makes our calling a complete and perfect one.

The needy among us should be given consideration at all times, even as we preach the gospel to them (James 2:15-16). Indeed, many have testified that taking care of the needy has provided opportunities for effective soul-winning.

As a Christian, are you socially responsible as directed in Isaiah 58:6-7?

OPEN HEAVEN 10 JULY 2021 ACTION POINT:
Commit a part of your income to meeting the needs of those who lack one thing or the other, in your community or Church.

OPEN HEAVEN 10 JULY 2021 BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: Psalm 60-62.

AUTHOR: PASTOR E. A. ADEBOYE

HYMN 23: STANDING ON THE PROMISES OF CHRIST MY KING.

1. Standing on the promises of Christ, my King,
Through eternal ages let his praises ring;
Glory in the highest, I will shout and sing,
Standing on the promises of God.

Refrain:
Standing, standing,
Standing on the promises of God, my Savior;
Standing, standing,
I’m standing on the promises of God.

2. Standing on the promises that cannot fail.
When the howling storms of doubt and fear assail,
By the living Word of God I shall prevail,
Standing on the promises of God.

3. Standing on the promises of Christ, the Lord,
Bound to him eternally by love’s strong cord,
Overcoming daily with the Spirit’s sword,
Standing on the promises of God.

4. Standing on the promises I cannot fall,
List’ning ev’ry moment to the Spirit’s call,
Resting in my Savior as my all in all,
Standing on the promises of God.

MEMORISE: For rebellion is as the sin of witchcraft, and stubbornness is as iniquity and idolatry. Because thou hast rejected the word of the LORD, he hath also rejected thee from being king. 1 Samuel 15:23

READ: 1 SAMUEL 15:22-24

22. And Samuel said, Hath the LORD as great delight in burnt offerings and sacrifices, as in obeying the voice of the LORD? Behold, to obey is better than sacrifice, and to hearken than the fat of rams.

23. For rebellion is as the sin of witchcraft, and stubbornness is as iniquity and idolatry. Because thou hast rejected the word of the LORD, he hath also rejected thee from being king.

24. And Saul said unto Samuel, I have sinned: for I have transgressed the commandment of the LORD, and thy words: because I feared the people, and obeyed their voice.

READ >> OPEN HEAVENS 10 JULY 2021

MESSAGE

Rebellion refers to opposition to authority or refusal to obey an authority figure. When a fellow outrightly disobeys an order or publicly rebuffs an instruction, we can call him or her a rebel.

God told King Saul to utterly destroy the Amalekites. He went but spared the best sheep, some oxen and King Agag; he obeyed partially and it was counted against him.

This shows that with God, there is no partial disobedience. Any act of disobedience is rebellion and the Bible likens rebellion to witchcraft.

My child, you need to examine yourself today. In what ways have you been disobedient to God, your parents or the school authority?

If you are in the higher institution and you join the Students Union Government executives to do Aluta against the School authority, you are rebellious.

It is good to speak politely when you disapprove of any situation that is against Gods word or poses a threat and discomfort to you but God doesn’t support riot. He will not be happy with any fellow who refuses to respect authority.

Repent and ask God for mercy now if you are guilty of the sin of rebellion.

ACTION POINT: List out 5 things that are being wasted in your house and take practical steps to stop the waste.

HYMN: LET OTHERS SEE JESUS IN YOU

1. While passing through this world of sin,
And others your life shall view,
Be clean and pure without, within,
Let others see Jesus in you.

CHORUS
Let others see Jesus in you,
Let others see Jesus in you;
Keep telling the story,
be faithful and true,
Let others see Jesus in you.

2. Your life’s a book before their eyes,
They’re reading it through and through;
Say, does it point them to the skies,
Do others see Jesus in you?

3. What joy ’twill be at set of sun,
In mansions beyond the blue,
To find some souls that you have won;
Let others see Jesus in you.

4. Then live for Christ both day and night,
Be faithful, be brave, and true,
And lead the lost to life and light;
Let others see Jesus in you.

OPEN HEAVEN 9 JULY 2021 FRIDAY

OPEN HEAVEN 9 JULY 2021 MEMORISE: And Isaac said unto his son, How is it that thou hast found it so quickly, my son? And he said, Because the LORD thy God brought it to me. Genesis 27:20

OPEN HEAVEN 9 JULY 2021 READ: GENESIS 27:20-33

20 And Isaac said unto his son, How is it that thou hast found it so quickly, my son? And he said, Because the LORD thy God brought it to me.

21 And Isaac said unto Jacob, Come near, I pray thee, that I may feel thee, my son, whether thou be my very son Esau or not.

22 And Jacob went near unto Isaac his father; and he felt him, and said, The voice is Jacob’s voice, but the hands are the hands of Esau.

23 And he discerned him not, because his hands were hairy, as his brother Esau’s hands: so he blessed him.

24 And he said, Art thou my very son Esau? And he said, I am.

25 And he said, Bring it near to me, and I will eat of my son’s venison, that my soul may bless thee. And he brought it near to him, and he did eat: and he brought him wine and he drank.

26 And his father Isaac said unto him, Come near now, and kiss me, my son.

27 And he came near, and kissed him: and he smelled the smell of his raiment, and blessed him, and said, See, the smell of my son is as the smell of a field which the LORD hath blessed:

28 Therefore God give thee of the dew of heaven, and the fatness of the earth, and plenty of corn and wine:

29 Let people serve thee, and nations bow down to thee: be lord over thy brethren, and let thy mother’s sons bow down to thee: cursed be every one that curseth thee, and blessed be he that blesseth thee.

30 And it came to pass, as soon as Isaac had made an end of blessing Jacob, and Jacob was yet scarce gone out from the presence of Isaac his father, that Esau his brother came in from his hunting.

31 And he also had made savoury meat, and brought it unto his father, and said unto his father, Let my father arise, and eat of his son’s venison, that thy soul may bless me.

32 And Isaac his father said unto him, Who art thou? And he said, I am thy son, thy firstborn Esau.

33 And Isaac trembled very exceedingly, and said, Who? where is he that hath taken venison, and brought it me, and I have eaten of all before thou camest, and have blessed him? yea, and he shall be blessed.

Good morning beloved, have a blessed Friday.

PERSONAL DAILY CONFESSION: I confess today, the grace to live a life worthy of celebration rest upon my destiny, in the name of Jesus Christ. Amen

OPEN HEAVEN 9 JULY 2021 MESSAGE

When Isaac asked Esau to prepare a delicious meal of venison (deer or antelope meat) for him to eat so that he could pray for him, Rebekah took advantage of the short distance between Jacob’s tent and his flock, ensuring that the dish was prepared and the blessing stolen before Esau returned. The quick response worked to the advantage of Rebekah and Jacob.

I shared a need of the Church with one of my sons and instead of promptly meeting it because of its urgency, he said he would go and pray about it. The following week when he came, ready to meet the need, God had already raised somebody else to resolve the issue. He felt bad about it. What a lesson.

Some people criticized the woman at Bethany for ‘wasting’ the ointment instead of selling it to provide for the poor. Jesus rebuked them, saying:

“She hath done what she could: she is come aforehand to anoint my body to the burying.” Mark 14:8

By the time this same woman, along with another and Jesus’ mother came to anoint the body of the Lord after His death, it was a belated gesture; Jesus had risen! Thankfully, Mary Magdalene had given her sacrifice before it was too late.

We must always be ready to do good according to Galatians 6:10:

“As we have therefore opportunity, let us do good unto all men, especially unto them who are of the household of faith.”

May the Lord grant you the grace and wisdom to offer your gifts at a time acceptable unto Him, in the mighty name of Jesus.

May your gift or sacrifice to God never be considered late by Him. May the Lord never have cause to raise someone else in your stead, in the mighty name of Jesus.

ACTION POINT:
Identify areas of need in the Church and your neighborhood. Decide to meet as many of such needs as you can, before it is too late.

BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: Psalm 57-59.

AUTHOR: PASTOR E. A. ADEBOYE

HYMN 15: MUST I GO AND EMPTY HANDED.

1. “Must I go, and empty-handed,”
Thus my dear Redeemer meet?
Not one day of service give Him,
Lay no trophy at His feet?

o Refrain:
“Must I go, and empty-handed?”
Must I meet my Savior so?
Not one soul with which to greet Him,
Must I empty-handed go?

2. Not at death I shrink or falter,
For my Savior saves me now;
But to meet Him empty-handed,
Thought of that now clouds my brow.

3. Oh, the years in sinning wasted,
Could I but recall them now,
I would give them to my Savior,
To His will I’d gladly bow.

4. Oh, ye saints, arouse, be earnest,
Up and work while yet ’tis day;
Ere the night of death o’ertake thee,
Strive for souls while still you may.

MEMORISE: And over these three presidents; of whom Daniel was first: that the princes might give accounts unto them, and the king should have no damage. Daniel 6:2

READ: Daniel 6:1-4

1. It pleased Darius to set over the kingdom an hundred and twenty princes, which should be over the whole kingdom;

2. And over these three presidents; of whom Daniel was first: that the princes might give accounts unto them, and the king should have no damage.

3. Then this Daniel was preferred above the presidents and princes, because an excellent spirit was in him; and the king thought to set him over the whole realm.

4. Then the presidents and princes sought to find occasion against Daniel concerning the kingdom; but they could find none occasion nor fault; forasmuch as he was faithful, neither was there any error or fault found in him.

READ >> OPEN HEAVENS 9 JULY 2021

MESSAGE:

Any true child will manage the resources at his or her disposal so as to prevent any loss or damage.

For instance, Daniel was a slave from Judah who rose to the position of President in Babylon due to his right attitude towards God, humans and things committed into his hands.

In Daniel 1:8, he respectfully rejected the kings delicacy and requested just bread, vegetables and water; after ten days, he looked ten times better than his co-captives.

Some teenagers may have wasted the meal either by eating little or refusing to eat after being served. If you waste resources such as food, water, raw materials, time, energy et cetera, you are not a good ambassador of Christ.

Remember, in Matthew 14:13-21, Jesus commanded the disciples to gather the remnant of the food. This shows that God is against any form of wastage. If you are in possession of what you don’t need, rather than waste it, give it out.

ACTION POINT:
List out 5 things that are being wasted in your house and take practical steps to stop the waste.

HYMN: CHRISTIAN SEEK NOT YET REPOSE

1. Christian, seek not yet repose,
Hear thy guardian angel say,
“Thou art in the midst of foes:
Watch and pray!

2. Principalities and powers,
Mustering their unseen array,
Wait for thine unguarded hours:
“Watch and pray!

3. Gird thy heavenly armour on,
Wear it every night and day,
Ambushed lies the evil one:
“Watch and pray!

4. Hear the victors who overcame;
Still they mark each warrior’s way,
All with one sweet voice exclaim,
“Watch and pray!

5. Hear, above all, hear thy Lord,
Him thou lovest to obey;
Hide within thy heart His word,
“Watch and pray!

6. Watch, as if on that alone
Hung the issue of the day;
Pray, that help may be sent down:
“Watch and pray!”

OPEN HEAVEN 8 JULY 2021 MESSAGE

In Exodus 20:16 God commanded that we should not bear false witness against our neighbours. The consequences of being a false witness are found in Proverbs 19:9 where the Bible says:

“A false witness shall not be unpunished, and he that speaketh lies shall perish.”

Wicked people rely on false witnesses to perpetrate their evil deeds. It was the false witness of Rehum the chancellor, Shimshai the scribe and their cohorts against the Jews that halted the rebuilding project of Zerubbabel according to Ezra Chapter 4.

These people wrote false allegations against the Jews and their leadership, then sent the document to King Artaxerxes.

“Then ceased the work of the house of God which is at Jerusalem. So it ceased unto the second year of the reign of Darius king of Persia.” Ezra 4:24

The consequences of false witness can be unimaginable. False witnessing shall not destroy your destiny in Jesus’ name.
The only way the Jewish leaders could get Jesus crucified was through false witnessing. The Bible says:

“For many bare false witness against Him, but their witness agreed not together.” Mark 14:56

Despite the conspiracy, there were discrepancies in their reports. The lessons to learn here is that, as Christians, we must live above board like our Master if we shall not become easy prey to the accuser of the brethren.

In the same vein, we must learn to be transparent and honest. This will prevent us from being false witnesses.

When we engage in false witnessing and other forms of falsehood, we crucify Jesus Christ over and over again. In what areas of your life are you being a false witness – a fake affidavit, a false claim that you are married with so many children whereas you are still single?

May that lying spirit not blot your name from the book of life in Jesus’ name. Be a witness to the Truth; Jesus is the Truth personified, as clearly stated in John 1:17 and John 14:6.
Ask yourself today: are you a witness for God or Satan?

OPEN HEAVEN 8 JULY 2021 PRAYER POINT: PRAYER POINTS FOR OPEN HEAVENS 8 JULY 2021
Father, please deliver me from every lying spirit and help me to be a true witness for Jesus Christ.

OPEN HEAVEN FOR TEENS 8 JULY 2021 MESSAGE

The Eagle is one of the most outstanding birds in the world with enviable qualities. It flies higher than any other bird and by default has a strong sense of vision.

Many teenagers lack vision and that’s why they are easily influenced by trends. Rather than set the pace in positive things, they join the band wagon to do wrong things.

You can be outstanding when your sight is as sharp as the eagles. This can only be done by God; when He opens your spiritual eyes, you will not only see things from the physical point of view, but also have deep in sights and understanding of matters.

In 2 Kings 6:15-17 ,when Gehazi became afraid that the city would be overturned by an army with horses and chariots, Elisha told Him not to be afraid because He already saw heavenly hosts on standby.

He prayed that God should open Gehazi’s eyes, and they were opened. When your spiritual eyes are open, you wont follow people or trends blindly. Your decisions will be based on divine revelations.

PRAYER POINT: Father, please make my physical and spiritual sight sharper than the eagles.

HYMN: WHEN WE WALK WITH THE LORD

1. When we walk with the Lord
In the light of His word,
What a glory He sheds on our way!
While we do His good will,
He abides with us still,
And with all who
will trust and obey.

CHORUS
Trust and obey!
For there’s no other way
To be happy in Jesus,
but to trust and obey.

2. Not a shadow can rise,
Not a cloud in the skies,
But His smile quickly drives it away;
Not a doubt nor a fear,
Not a sigh nor a tear,
Can abide while
we trust and obey.

3. Not a burden we bear,
Not a sorrow we share,
But our toil He doth richly repay;
Not a grief nor a loss,
Not a frown nor a cross,
But is blest if we trust and
obey.

4. But we never can prove
The delights of His love,
Until all on the altar we lay,
For the favour He shows,
For the joy He bestows,
Are for them who will trust
and obey.

5. Then in fellowship sweet
We will sit at His feet,
Or we’ll walk by His side in
the way;
What He says we will do,
Where He sends we will go;
Never fear, only trust and
obey.

RCCG FASTING AND PRAYER GUIDE 8 JULY 2021

BIBLE TEXT: Remember ye not the former things, neither consider the things of old. Behold, I will do a new thing; now it shall spring forth; shall ye not know it? I will even make a way in the wilderness, and rivers in the desert. Isa 43:18-19.

PREAMBLE: From the above text; Indeed God is about to do a new thing, and all eyes will see it. As it is written, “For, behold, the darkness shall cover the earth, and gross darkness the people: but the LORD shall arise upon thee, and his glory shall be seen upon thee”. Isa 60:2.

It is one thing to behold a glory; it is another thing to be part of its manifestation. In this year convention, the Lord through our father-in-the-Lord, and by the power of the Holy Spirit, is ready to decorate our lives with a NEW WAVE OF GLORY. It will come upon all of us as an individual, upon every Nation globally and upon the ministries the Lord has
committed into our hands. It is promised to be extremely glorious.
