OPEN HEAVEN 16 FEBRUARY 2021 MESSAGE

I see some people’s reaction when it is offering time and wonder if they know whom the offering is for at all.

God is not broke and He is not a beggar. He doesn’t need your money.

We see in Haggai 2:8 that silver and gold are His, If you have the opportunity to give Him an offering, you should do so rejoicing.

Imaging meeting one of the richest man in the world at a restaurant and he requests that you help pay for his meal because he did not have his wallet on him, with a promise to refund you.

Would you give him the money grudgingly?.

You know he is not asking for the money because he is poor; indeed, he would refund your money and most likely add some extra.

In fact, you may not even be interested in getting the money back, you might just see it as a privilege that you had an opportunity to give to him.

Why then do you treat God like a beggar when asked to give an offering?.

I will never forget a Church I attended outside Nigeria.

It was the first time I was attending that Church and the entire place looked very beautiful.

All the members were shining as they came to Church.

With the way everyone was looking so radiant, I concluded “God must have really prospered these people”.

Then I observed something: when the Pastor got up and said “It is offering time” everybody jumped up and began to rejoice.

The Holy Spirit then said to me “That is their secret; they are cheerful givers”.

Many years ago, I was at a Church where they requested for several kinds of offerings.

The offerings were so many that at a point I grumbled before reaching for my pocket and I heard God say in an angry tone “Keep your money”.

I quickly apologised for grumbling and immediately became cheerful.

I became even more cheerful when He later on permitted me to give my offering.

If you decide to never give offerings or tithes again, the work of God will still go on.

When Elijah went to the widow of Zarephath and asked her for a meal, it was not Elijah who was in need, it was the widow.

In (1 Kings 19) an angel brought food and water to Elijah.

There was nothing stopping the angel from giving him food and water every day; however, God sent Elijah to her because He wanted to meet her need.

The cattle upon a thousand hills belong to God.

If He asks you to give Him something, it is because He wants to bless you.

I hope your attitude towards giving to God will improve from now.

OPEN HEAVEN 16 FEBRUARY 2021 KEY POINT

Every opportunity to give to God is an opportunity to be blessed by Him; rejoice in it.

OPEN HEAVEN 16 FEBRUARY 2021 HYMN

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?

REFRAIN:
Must I go and empty handed?
Must I meet my Saviour so?
Not one soul with which to greet Him,
Must I empty handed go?

2. Not at death I shrink or falter
For my Saviour 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 Saviour,
To His will I’d gladly bow.

4. O 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.

THEME: DISCOURAGED?

MEMORISE: Why art thou cast down, O my soul? and why art thou disquieted in me? hope thou in God: for I shall yet praise him for the help of his countenance. Psalms 42:5

READ: 1 Kings 19:1-4
1. Now Ahab told Jezebel everything Elijah had done and how he had killed all the prophets with the sword.
2 So Jezebel sent a messenger to Elijah to say, “May the gods deal with me, be it ever so severely, if by this time tomorrow I do not make your life like that of one of them.
3 Elijah was afraid and ran for his life. When he came to Beersheba in Judeh, he left his servant there,
4 while he himself went a day’s journey into the desert. He came to a broom tree, sat down under it and prayed that he might die. “I have had enough, Lord ,” he said. “Take my life; I am no better than my ancestors.”

READ >> OPEN HEAVENS 15 FEBRUARY 2021

MESSAGE:

To be discouraged means to lack courage. It is a state of mind marked by fear of failure and loss of hope. Discouragement often comes when a fellow is about to achieve an important feat in life.

For instance, God promised to take the Israelites to the Promised Land. He delivered them from the hands of their slave masters in Egypt. He parted the Red sea for them to walk on dry land and caused Pharaoh and his men who were in a hot pursuit after them to perish in the sea.

He also provided manna from heaven for them. When they wanted flesh, He provided them with quails. He fought and won many battles for them but when they were faced with giants, they became discouraged, except Joshua and Caleb.

This made God angry, so, He said Joshua, Caleb and those who were twenty years and below would enter Canaan Land.
What have you been asking from God? Don’t stop asking, the answer is here.

Are you about to write an examination and you don’t know the subject or course well enough and as a result you have marked yourself low? That mindset is not of God. Study hard for it and ask the Holy Spirit for help today. Never give room for discouragement.

Action Point: Declare the word of God concerning your situation today.

HYMN 16: MY FAITH LOOKS UP TO THEE

1. My faith looks up to Thee,
Thou Lamb of Calvary,
Savior divine!
Now hear me while I pray,
Take all my guilt away,
Oh, let me from this day
Be wholly Thine!

2. May Thy rich grace impart
Strength to my fainting heart,
My zeal inspire!
As Thou hast died for me,
Oh, may my love to Thee
Pure, warm and changeless be,
A living fire!

3. While life’s dark maze I tread,
And griefs around me spread,
Be Thou my guide; i
Bid darkness turn to day,
Wipe sorrow’s tears away,
Nor let me ever stray
From Thee aside.

4. When ends life’s transient dream,
When death’s cold sullen stream
Shall o’er me roll;
Blest Savior, then, in love,
Fear and distrust remove;
Oh, bear me safe above,
A ransomed soul.

27. How long shall I bear with this evil congregation, which murmur against me? I have heard the murmurings of the children of Israel, which they murmur against me.

28. Say unto them, As truly as I live, saith the LORD, as ye have spoken in mine ears, so will I do to you;

29. Your carcases shall fall in this wilderness; and all that were numbered of you, according to your whole number, from twenty years old and upward, which have murmured against me,

30. Doubtless ye shall not come into the land, concerning which I sware to make you dwell therein, save Caleb the son of Jephunneh, and Joshua the son of Nun.

OPEN HEAVEN 15 FEBRUARY 2021 MESSAGE

Many years ago, I visited a zoo in Ibadan, Nigeria, and I was told the story of a certain prophet who jumped into the lion’s cage to prove that he had the same power as Daniel.

The lion ate him up in spite of the huge cross he carried with him.

One major difference between that man and Daniel is that the latter did not jump into the lions’ den to tempt God; he was thrown into it for praying to God.

God however, didn’t only save Daniel; He also prospered him and wiped out his accusers (Daniel 6:1-26). Mark 16:18 says:

They shall take up serpents; and if they drink any deadly thing, it shall not hurt them; they shall lay hands on the sick, and they shall recover.

Does this mean that you should deliberately drink poison? No.

What God is saying in the passage above is that if someone tries to poison you, the poison will not harm you.

It is foolishness to tempt God.

This is the trap the devil set before Jesus Christ in Matthew 4:5-7 when he told Him to jump off the pinnacle of the temple, reminding Him that the Bible says God’s angels will not allow His foot to be dashed against a stone.

Jesus escaped this trap by quoting Deuteronomy 6:16: Ye shall not tempt the Lord your God…

Tempting God provokes His wrath and also limits what He wants to do in the life of His children.

How often did they provoke him in the wilderness, and grieve him in the desert!

Yea, they turned back and tempted God, and limited the Holy One of Israel. – (Psalm 78:40-41)

As we see in our Bible reading today, the children of Israel tempted God in the wilderness with their unbelief, murmuring and idolatry.

This limited God’s plans for their lives and prevented them from entering the Promised Land with the exception of Caleb and Joshua who had faith in Him.

It is indeed foolishness to tempt God. Are you tempting God?

OPEN HEAVEN 15 FEBRUARY 2021 PRAYER POINT

Lord, please forgive me for every time I have tempted You and help me never to it again.

ROCK OF AGES, CLEFT FOR ME

1. Rock of Ages, cleft for me,
Let me hide myself in Thee!
Let the water and the blood,
From Thy wounded side which flowed,
Be of sin the double cure;
Save from wrath and make me pure.

2. Not the labours of my hands,
Can fulfill Thy law’s demands;
Could my zeal no respite know,
Could my tears for ever flow,
All for sin could not atone,
Thou must save and Thou alone.

3. Nothing in my hand I bring,
Simply to the cross I cling;
Naked, come to Thee for dress,
Helpless, look to Thee for grace,
Foul, I to the fountain fly;
Wash me, Saviour, or I die.

4. While I draw this fleeting breath,
When mine eyes shall close in death,
When I soar to worlds unknown,
See Thee on Thy judgement throne,
Rock of Ages, cleft for me,
Let me hide myself in Thee.

THEME: PREVENT FUTURE REGRETS

MEMORISE: Be very careful, then, how you live-not as unwise but as wise, Ephesians 5:15

READ: 2 KINGS 5:20-27

20 Gehazi, the servant of Elisha the man of God, said to himself, “My master wastoo easy on Naaman, this Aramean, by not accepting from him what he brought. As surely as the Lord lives, I will run after him and get something from him.”

21 So Gehazi hurried after Naaman. When Naaman saw him running toward him, he got down from the chariot to meet him. “Is everything all right?” he asked.

22 ”Everything is all right,” Gehazi answered. “My master sent me to say, ‘Two young men from the company of the prophets have just come to me from the hill country of Ephraim. Please give them a talent of silver and two sets of clothing.’ “

23 ”By all means, take two talents,” said Naaman. He urged Gehazi to accept them, and then tied up the two talents of silver in two bags, with two sets of clothing. He gave them to two of his servants, and they carried them ahead of Gehazi.

24 When Gehazi came to the hill, he took the things from the servants and put them away in the house. He sent the men away and they left.

25 Then he went in and stood before his master Elisha. “Where have you been, Gehazi?” Elisha asked. “Your servant didn’t go anywhere,” Gehazi answered.

26 But Elisha said to him, “Was not my spirit with you when the man got down from his chariot to meet you? Is this the time to take money, or to accept clothes, olive groves, vineyards, flocks, herds, or menservants and maidservants?

27 Naaman’s leprosy will cling to you and to your descendants forever.” Then Gehazi went from Elisha’s presence and he was leprous, as white as snow.

READ >> OPEN HEAVEN 14 FEBRUARY 2021

MESSAGE:

The story of Gehazi is really a sad one. Greed made him go after Naaman against the wish of his master, Elisha. In 2 Kings 2:8-15, Elisha asked for and got the double portion of Elijah’s anointing, but the story is different with Gehazi.

Maybe he would have acted differently, if he had known that what he would get from his master was the leprosy of Namaan instead of the double portion of Elisha’s anointing.

You need to know that there are consequences for every action you take; Some consequences may be mild, others may be so grave that even if God shows mercy, the person’s life can never be as perfect as God planned it.

Beloved, don’t live anyhow. Some young ones when corrected after doing something wrong would say, “It is my life” Actually, it is not your life, it is God who gives breath and He created everyone for a purpose. On the last day, we all will give account of how we lived the life He gave to us.

Therefore, think of the future before you act. Before you celebrate Valentine’s Day in an unholy manner, think of the consequences of unholy living here on earth and The eternal destination it leads to (hell).

Don’t destroy your future because of the celebration of one day. Prevent future regrets by doing the will of God today and always.

REFLECTION: Don’t celebrate Valentine’s day in an unholy manner.

HYMN 7: CHRISTIAN, SEEK NOT YET REPOSE

1. Christian, seek not yet repose
Hear thy gracious Savior say;
Thou art in the midst of foes:
Watch and pray.

2. Principalities and power
Mustering their unseen array
Wait for the unguarded hours:
Watch and pray

3. Gird the heavenly armor on,
Wear it ever night and day;
Ambushed lies the evil one:
Watch and pray.

4. Hear the victors who o’ercame,
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 loves 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.

TOPIC: KINGS ARE NOT SAVED BY THEIR LARGE SEIZES OF THEIR ARMIES

OPENING PRAYER: Father, please manifest Your power in my life all the time.

PREVIOUS KNOWLEDGE: The leader should ask the members about the story of Simon the sorcerer.

MEMORY VERSE: “There is no king saved by the multitude of an host: a mighty man is not delivered by much strength.” Psalm 33:16

BIBLE TEXT: 1 Kings 20:1-21

LESSON INTRODUCTION: Benhadad, the king of Syria gathered thirty-two kings and their chariots to fight the king of Israel according to our today’s text, because he saw Israel to be small in size likewise her men of war. Little did he know that by going to mock Israel he was in turn mocking their God. When the God of Israel stood up and fought against him, he came and pleaded for leniency.

Romans 8:31 has this to say: “…if God be for us, who can be against us?” Nothing can be against you, if your trust is in God. It does not matter your size, provided that God is on your side, you are on the path of victory.

Please note this: Whether you are a secular king with a kingdom that you oversee or you are a King and Priest in God’s kingdom according to Revelation 1:6 and 5:10, note that one with God is majority.
