OPEN HEAVEN 24 FEBRUARY 2023 MEMORIZE: But ye, beloved, building up yourselves on your most holy faith, praying in the Holy Ghost. Jude 1:20

OPEN HEAVEN 24 FEBRUARY 2023 BIBLE READING 1 CORINTHIANS 14:14-15

14 For if I pray in an unknown tongue, my spirit prayeth, but my understanding is unfruitful.

15 What is it then? I will pray with the spirit, and I will pray with the understanding also: I will sing with the spirit, and I will sing with the understanding also.

OPEN HEAVEN 24 FEBRUARY 2023 MESSAGE

For if I pray in an unknown tongue, my spirit prayeth, but my understanding is unfruitful. (1 Corinthians 14:14)

Each time you are praying in the Holy Spirit, you are praying by faith because you usually wouldn’t understand what you are saying. In other words, when you are praying in the Holy Spirit, you are exercising your faith. Physical muscles grow by exercise; likewise spiritual muscles. Faith is your spiritual muscle; you grow it by praying in tongues.

It is amazing how many Christians, including Pentecostals don’t pray regularly in the Holy Ghost, and because of this, their faith has remained stunted. The more you pray in the Holy Spirit, the greater your faith and the brighter your future.

If you have not yet experienced the baptism of the Holy Spirit, I pray that you will get it today, in Jesus’ name. If you have been baptised and have not been exercising your baptism, you must begin to do so.

On the day of Pentecost, when Peter preached a great sermon after he got baptised in the Holy Spirit, the people came to him and said, “Sir, what must we do” and he laid it out for them as seen in Acts 2:38: Then Peter said unto them, Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost.

Peter informed them that the first step is repentance, the second is water baptism, and the third is to receive the Holy Spirit. This same Peter is the man who had given up on his dream to become a fisher of men. He preached and won three thousand souls the day he started speaking in tongues.

His ambitions came alive after he was baptised in the Holy Ghost. After that, there was no going back. He kept getting greater and greater until even his shadow was healing the sick. Your dreams can also come alive if you pray in tongues regularly.

OPEN HEAVEN 24 FEBRUARY 2023 KEY POINT

Pray in tongues for at least one hour today and make it a regular practice.

OPEN HEAVEN 25 FEBRUARY 2023 MEMORIZE: Let them shout for joy, and be glad, that favour my righteous cause: yea, let them say continually, Let the LORD be magnified, which hath pleasure in the prosperity of his servant. Psalm 35:27

OPEN HEAVEN 25 FEBRUARY 2023 BIBLE READING GENESIS 26:12-14, 3 JOHN 2

OPEN HEAVEN 25 FEBRUARY 2023 MESSAGE

In John 10:10, Jesus Christ promised that He came that we may have life and have it more abundantly. Furthermore, in Psalm 68:19, the Bible says that God daily loads us with benefits.

God wants you to prosper because the Bible says Clearly in Proverbs 10:15 that the destruction of the poor is their poverty. You will not be destroyed, in Jesus’ name. (1 Timothy 6:10) says clearly that it is the love of money, and not money itself, that is the root of all evil.

God wants you to prosper because His plan for your life is that you will be a blessing. You cannot be a blessing to others if you are not blessed. If you have nothing to eat, how are you going to feed the poor? I decree into your life: you will prosper, in the mighty name of Jesus!

Some preachers talk about the story of Lazarus and the rich man in Luke 16:19-31, saying because the rich man went to hell while Lazarus the beggar was carried into Abraham’s bosom, then rich people will all go to hell while only the poor will go to heaven.

That conclusion is not in line with the story. When you study that passage very well, you would see that the rich man pleaded for Lazarus to go back to earth to preach to his brothers but; Father Abraham responded that if his brethren did not listen to the prophets, they would not listen to Lazarus either. It is therefore clear that it is not wealth that sent the rich man to hell, but rather his refusal to listen to the prophets.

John 3:1-16 shows clearly that the way to make it to heaven is to be born again. It doesn’t matter whether you are rich or poor; if you are not born again, you are going to spend eternity in the lake of fire. You can be the richest person in the world and go to heaven if you are born again; you can be the poorest fellow in the world and go to hell if you refuse to surrender your life to Jesus.

Proverbs 10:22 states clearly that the blessing of the Lord maketh rich and addeth no sorrow. You cannot end up in hell when your wealth comes from the Lord, and you live according to His will.

OPEN HEAVEN 25 FEBRUARY 2023 KEY POINT

Poverty is not a visa to heaven and wealth is not a visa to hell.

[16]Be of the same mind one toward another. Mind not high things, but condescend to men of low estate. Be not wise in your own conceits.

OPEN HEAVEN FOR TEENS 23 FEBRUARY 2023 MESSAGE

Instead of being jealous of a fellow’s success, be happy for him/her. It is necessary genuinely rejoice with others when the occasion calls for it so that they can also rejoice with you someday. Your happiness for others does stop you from being blessed, so you d not have any reason to grumble or be angry at the success of your friend.

Philippians 1:6 says: “Being confident of this very thing: that he which hath begun a good work in you will perform it until the day of Jesus Christ:”

This is an assurance that God’s blessings for you are true. Your sincere happiness for others should encourage you to believe that soon, your day of joy will come. It will also help to eliminate any trace of jealousy/envy towards others.

Therefore, rejoice with those who are rejoicing, knowing that your heavenly Father will honour His word in your life.

OPEN HEAVEN FOR TEENS 23 FEBRUARY 2023 ACTION POINT

Celebrate with others, knowing that your time will come.

3. What tho’ in the conflict for right
Your enemies almost prevail!

Your sky by the night be o’er cast,
Let nothing your spirit dismay.
But trust till the danger is past.

With harp, and with organ, and voice,
The loud hallelujahs prolong!

OPEN HEAVEN 22 FEBRUARY 2023 MEMORIZE: This book of the law shall not depart out of thy mouth; but thou shalt meditate therein day and night, that thou mayest observe to do according to all that is written therein: for then thou shalt make thy way prosperous, and then thou shalt have good success. – Joshua 1:8

OPEN HEAVEN 22 FEBRUARY 2023 BIBLE READING PSALMS 1:1-3

1 Blessed is the man that walketh not in the counsel of the ungodly, nor standeth in the way of sinners, nor sitteth in the seat of the scornful.

2 But his delight is in the law of the Lord; and in his law doth he meditate day and night.

3 And he shall be like a tree planted by the rivers of water, that bringeth forth his fruit in his season; his leaf also shall not wither; and whatsoever he doeth shall prosper.

OPEN HEAVEN 22 FEBRUARY 2023 MESSAGE

As we continue today with the study on how to grow your faith, we will be focusing on memorising and meditating on the word of God.

Let us consider David. He was a shepherd boy who was not even invited when his brothers were summoned into the army, yet he dared to dream big enough to fight and defeat a giant the entire Israeli military was scared of (1 Samuel 17).

One of the major secrets of David’s success lies in this statement he made in Psalm 119:11: “Thy word have I hid in mine heart, that I might not sin against thee”. This was another way of him saying, “I memorise the word of God”. No wonder he is recognised today as one of the greatest kings Israel has ever had.

A child once asked me, “How is it that you know the Bible so much?” My response was, “Because I memorise it”. When I got born again, I started memorising just one verse per week. In the Sunday School pamphlet, there is a memory verse for the week. One memory verse a week means 52 memory verses in a year.

Since I have been born again since 1973, do the calculation and you will have an idea of how many memory verses I have stored up in my heart. Just one little effort every week and as year rolls after year, you would have memorised so many Scriptures and your faith would have grown greatly.

You must also meditate on the word of God. By meditating, you are turning it over on every side. Just like a cow would eat grass and then go and lay down in a corner to regurgitate and chew it little by little, you need to go over the word that you have memorised in tiny bits again and again, so as to keep getting deeper revelations that would foster or boost faith. This will in turn bring good SUCCESS.

Psalm 1:1-3 says to be blessed, you must meditate on the word day and night. You see, the word of God is God Himself (John 1:1), so when you meditate on it, you are actually exploring God Himself. Memorise and meditate on the word of God daily and your faith will grow exponentially.

OPEN HEAVEN 22 FEBRUARY 2023 KEY POINT

Memorise and mediate on God’s word daily.

OPEN HEAVEN 23 FEBRUARY 2023 MEMORIZE: But be ye doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving your own selves. James 1:22

OPEN HEAVEN 23 FEBRUARY 2023 BIBLE READING JAMES 1:22-25

22 But be ye doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving your own selves.

23 For if any be a hearer of the word, and not a doer, he is like unto a man beholding his natural face in a glass:

24 For he beholdeth himself, and goeth his way, and straightway forgetteth what manner of man he was.

25 But whoso looketh into the perfect law of liberty, and continueth therein, he being not a forgetful hearer, but a doer of the work, this man shall be blessed in his deed.

OPEN HEAVEN 23 FEBRUARY 2023 MESSAGE

After studying God’s word, memorising and meditating on it, you must ensure you act on it so your faith can grow. Our Bible reading for today says clearly that we must not be hearers only, but doers also. In fact, verse 25 says that if you are a doer of the word, you will be blessed indeed.

In other words, the more you apply the word, the more blessed you become. While faithfulness is a noun, faith is a verb. If you truly believe, it would show in your actions (James 2:26). After you have meditated on something you read in the Bible, the next thing you are to do is apply it.

Make a move in line with what has been revealed to you in the word. When you read Proverbs 21:13 that says you should not close your ears to the cry of the poor, do you apply it? When you read Deuteronomy 28:7 that says that if enemies gather against you in one way, they will be scattered in seven, do you still fret at the sight of them?

When you apply the lessons you draw from the word of God, your faith will begin to grow. Very soon, little faith will become great faith and great faith will become very great faith. All you have to do is practice what you learn.

I didn’t start out with the level of faith I now have. I remember very well when I had just gotten born again; my Sunday School teacher taught us then that if a little boy is on a roof and his father tells him to jump down, promising to catch him, the boy would jump.

He said in the same vein, when God asks us to jump, we should just jump and He would catch us. I meditated over that deeply; since then, I have been jumping and God has been catching me.

So many times, I start projects not because I have the funds required to complete them, but because I know that God will ‘catch me’ and He has never failed. For every time He showed up, my faith grew and my dreams became bigger. I keep going for bigger mountains because I am sure that He lives and is supporting me all the way.

[1]And it shall come to pass, if thou shalt hearken diligently unto the voice of the LORD thy God, to observe and to do all his commandments which I command thee this day, that the LORD thy God will set thee on high above all nations of the earth:

[2]And all these blessings shall come on thee, and overtake thee, if thou shalt hearken unto the voice of the LORD thy God.

[3]Blessed shalt thou be in the city, and blessed shalt thou be in the field.

[4]Blessed shall be the fruit of thy body, and the fruit of thy ground, and the fruit of thy cattle, the increase of thy kine, and the flocks of thy sheep.

[5]Blessed shall be thy basket and thy store.

[6]Blessed shalt thou be when thou comest in, and blessed shalt thou be when thou goest out.

[7]The LORD shall cause thine enemies that rise up against thee to be smitten before thy face: they shall come out against thee one way, and flee before thee seven ways.

[8]The LORD shall command the blessing upon thee in thy storehouses, and in all that thou settest thine hand unto; and he shall bless thee in the land which the LORD thy God giveth thee.

[9]The LORD shall establish thee an holy people unto himself, as he hath sworn unto thee, if thou shalt keep the commandments of the LORD thy God, and walk in his ways.

[10]And all people of the earth shall see that thou art called by the name of the LORD; and they shall be afraid of thee.

[11]And the LORD shall make thee plenteous in goods, in the fruit of thy body, and in the fruit of thy cattle, and in the fruit of thy ground, in the land which the LORD sware unto thy fathers to give thee.

[12]The LORD shall open unto thee his good treasure, the heaven to give the rain unto thy land in his season, and to bless all the work of thine hand: and thou shalt lend unto many nations, and thou shalt not borrow.

[13]And the LORD shall make thee the head, and not the tail; and thou shalt be above only, and thou shalt not be beneath; if that thou hearken unto the commandments of the LORD thy God, which I command thee this day, to observe and to do them:

[14]And thou shalt not go aside from any of the words which I command thee this day, to the right hand, or to the left, to go after other gods to serve them.

OPEN HEAVEN FOR TEENS 22 FEBRUARY 2023 MESSAGE

A deal breaker is something that can annul an agreement between two people. Just as you would not break some deals in order to get rewards from your parents, So should you not break some deals with God. Sin is a deal breaker between God and His children. If you want to enjoy the blessings of God, abstnaaain from sin.

For every sin you commit, you have breached a deal between you and God and sent an invitation to the enemy to come in. God doesn’t keep to His words with people that do not keep to theirs. If you have repented of a sin, you shouldn’t go back to it, so there will be no gap between you and God.

If God is not your ally, He will not fulfill the promises He made to you in His word. A partnership with God will only last if you abide by His commandments.

Father, forgive in any way i have broken the deal with you, in Jesus’name.

STANDING ON THE PROMISES OF GOD

1. Standing on the promises of Christ our King,
Thro’ eternal ages let His praises ring:
Glory in the highest, I will shout and sing,
Standing on the promises of God.

Chorus
Standing, Standing,
Standing on the promises of God my Saviour
Standing, Standing,
I’m standing on the promises of God.

2. Standing on the promises that can-not fail,
When the howling storms of doubt and fear assail
By the living word of Go I shall prevail,
Standing on the promises of God.

3. Standing on the promises I now can see
Perfect, present cleansing in the blood for me;
Standing in the liberty where Christ makes free,
Standing on the promises of God.

4. 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.
