TOPIC: How To Become Influential


MEMORISE: “And I will make thy seed to multiply as the stars of heaven, and will give unto thy seed all these countries; and in thy seed shall all the nations of the earth be blessed;” – Genesis 26:4 (KJV)


READ: John 15:14-16 (KJV)


14 Ye are my friends, if ye do whatsoever I command you.


15 Henceforth I call you not servants; for the servant knoweth not what his lord doeth: but I have called you friends; for all things that I have heard of my Father I have made known unto you.


16 Ye have not chosen me, but I have chosen you, and ordained you, that ye should go and bring forth fruit, and that your fruit should remain: that whatsoever ye shall ask of the Father in my name, he may give it you.


BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: Ezekiel 18-20


Open Heaven For Today 2023 MESSAGE


God wants you to be influential. Genesis 1:28 says He wants you to have dominion. Believe me honestly, you don’t have to be the president before you begin to have dominion. No matter your status today, you can still have dominion. The Almighty God wants you to become influential, but for that to happen, you must obey Him and His commandments – no matter the situation. When you do this, He will see to it that you are always the head and never the tail (Deuteronomy 28:13). If you want to increase in influence, do what He says.


One major thing He said you should do is to win souls. Our Bible reading for today says you can become Jesus’ friend and I’m telling you, when you befriend the Lord, you become very influential because of your relationship with He who has influence across all realms (Philippians 2:10). When you become a friend of Jesus Christ, doors open to you automatically. I can tell you stories upon stories about countries that refused to register The Redeemed Christian Church of God and the same people would call us back within months to offer us our registration certificate. When you are a friend of Jesus, you will do what He commanded in John 15:14-15 – win souls and make sure they abide. If you do this, He has promised that anything you ask in His name, He will do it. That is great influence.



In John 12:32, the Bible says if you will lift Jesus, He would draw all men to Himself. If you keep on preaching, witnessing and winning souls, men will come from all over the place to meet with you. Thus, if you want to be influential, 2 Timothy 4:2 says you should preach in and out of season. Preach when it is convenient and when it is not convenient. If every one of us reading this devotional today goes out and wins at least one soul today, imagine how much rejoicing would be in heaven because of us. Do your part and He will surely do His.


My greatest desire was to be the youngest Vice-Chancellor in Africa, but when I became born again and God called me into full-time ministry, I abandoned my ambition. Today, Vice-Chancellors call me Daddy.


ACTION POINT


Every reader of this devotional is to win at least one soul today. Don’t break the chain.


HYMN 18 – Praise To The Lord, The Almighty, The King Of Creation


1 Praise to the Lord, the Almighty, the King of creation;

O my soul, praise Him, for He is thy health and salvation;

Join the great throng,

Psaltery, organ, and song,

Sounding in glad adoration.


2 Praise to the Lord, over all things he gloriously reigneth:

< span style="font-size: large;">Borne as on eagle-wings, safely his saints he sustaineth.

Hast thou not seen,

How all thou needest hath been,

Granted in what he ordaineth?


3 Praise to the Lord, who doth prosper thy way and defend thee;

Surely his goodness and mercy shall ever attend thee;

Ponder anew,

What the Almighty can do,

Who with his love doth befriend thee.


4 Praise to the Lord! O let all that is in me adore Him!

All that hath breath join with Abraham’s seed to adore Him!

Let the Amen

Sum all our praises again,

Now as we worship before Him.

Open Heaven For Today 2023 Monday Daily Devotional By Pastor E. A. Adeboye – God Will Make You Fruitful

Click HERE for Previous Open Heaven Devotional


TOPIC: God Will Make You Fruitful


MEMORISE: “There shall nothing cast their young, nor be barren, in thy land: the number of thy days I will fulfil.” – Exodus 23:26 (KJV)


READ: Genesis 1:27-30 (KJV)


27 So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them.


28 And God blessed them, and God said unto them, Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth, and subdue it: and have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over every living thing that moveth upon the earth.


29 And God said, Behold, I have given you every herb bearing seed, which is upon the face of all the earth, and every tree, in the which is the fruit of a tree yielding seed; to you it shall be for meat.


30 And to every beast of the earth, and to every fowl of the air, and to every thing that creepeth upon the earth, wherein there is life, I have given every green herb for meat: and it was so.


BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: Ezekiel 16-17


Open Heaven For Today 2023 MESSAGE:


God’s plan for everyone is that they would be fruitful and multiply. That is why He gave every woman considered barren in the Scriptures a testimony. The only person who died barren is the woman that mocked her husband – King David, for dancing before God (2 Samuel 6:20-23). If you have been considered barren, God is about to surprise you, in Jesus’ name.


You however, have a part to play as God is set to make you experience all-round fruitfulness. John 15:1-5 makes it clear that you must be joined to the Fruitful Vine to be fruitful. He said in verse 4,”Abide in me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit of itself, except it abide in the vine; no more can ye, except ye abide in me.” To become fruitful, you must be totally joined to the Fruitful Vine. You must abide in Him.


Many years ago, we held a programme in Lagos, Nigeria, during which I urged everybody to ask for something special from God. There was a lady there who said, “Father, I’m not going to ask You for anything anymore because I have repeatedly asked You for what I wanted, and You didn’t give me. I used to ask You for a husband and now I’m too old to have children, so I won’t ask again. However, I will continue to serve You all the days of my life”. God heard her and a few days later, a man came and said he wanted to marry her. She looked at the man and told him to pray again as she was already past menopause. He said he already had children, but he was a widower, so he was looking for a wife who would also be a mother to them. They got married and nine months later, she gave birth to twins – two boys. When you commit yourself to the True Vine, He will make sure that you become fruitful.


The True Vine can make you fruitful in every aspect of your life. God is the One who said in Leviticus 19:13 that everyone must pay the wages of those that work for them. If you are committed to God and His kingdom, you will definitely bear fruit. God said He is not unrighteous to forget your labour of love (Hebrews 6:10).


The Lord will definitely reward you as long as you remain connected to Him.


ACTION POINT:


Be totally committed to God.


HYMN 26: There Shall Be Showers Of Blessing


1 There shall be showers of blessing:

This is the promise of love;

There shall be seasons refreshing,

Sent from the Saviour above.


Refrain:

Showers of blessing,

Showers of blessing we need;

Mercy-drops round us are falling,

But for the showers we plead.


2 There shall be showers of blessing:

Precious reviving again;

Over the hills and the valleys,

Sound of abundance of rain.


3 There shall be showers of blessing:

Send them upon us, Oh Lord!

Grant to us now a refreshing;

Come and now honour Thy Word.


4 There shall be showers of blessing:

Oh, that today they might fall,

Now, as to God, we’re confessing,

Now as on Jesus we call!

Open Heaven For Today 2023 Sunday Daily Devotional By Pastor E. A. Adeboye – The Meal That Makes Rich

Click HERE for Previous Open Heaven Devotional


TOPIC: The Meal That Makes Rich


MEMORISE: “And the Lord gave the people favour in the sight of the Egyptians, so that they lent unto them such things as they required. And they spoiled the Egyptians.” – Exodus 12:36 (KJV)


READ: Exodus 12:15, 35-36 (KJV)


Exodus 12:15

15 Seven days shall ye eat unleavened bread; even the first day ye shall put away leaven out of your houses: for whosoever eateth leavened bread from the first day until the seventh day, that soul shall be cut off from Israel.


Exodus 12:35-36

35 And the children of Israel did according to the word of Moses; and they borrowed of the Egyptians jewels of silver, and jewels of gold, and raiment:


36 And the Lord gave the people favour in the sight of the Egyptians, so that they lent unto them such things as they required. And they spoiled the Egyptians.


BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: Ezekiel 13-15


Open Heaven For Today 2023 MESSAGE:


While studying the word of God, I discovered that God performs various miracles through the Holy Communion. One of such miracles is making rich those who partake in the meal according to His will. The occult also tries to emulate this when witch doctors ask people seeking sudden riches to eat some charms that will make them rich overnight. They will however, also reach an agreement to be rich for only a few years before the charm kills them. In Yoruba land, such a person would be said to have eaten lukudi.


< p>There was one man who ate lukudi, but instead of getting money, the charm began to eat him up from the inside. He came to the Headquarters of The Redeemed Christian Church of God and pretended to give his life to Jesus. We prayed and he vomited the charm he had eaten. After a while, we noticed that he stopped coming to Church, only to later hear that he had gone to eat the charm again. This time around the money came, but when the agreed date for his death started drawing near, he decided to run to England, and ended up dying in the plane.


As is typical with the devil, whatever he gives is always short-lived and he collects the fellow’s soul in return. Mark 8:36 asks: “What shall it profit a man if he gains the whole world and loses his soul?” With the Holy Communion however, not only will you become rich after eating it, you will also have long and eternal life.


According to Exodus 12:35-36, the day the children of Israel ate the Holy Communion, the wealth of the Egyptians was handed over to them. When you eat the Holy Communion, the wealth the Almighty God has assigned to you that is in the hands of the enemy will be transferred to you. As you eat the Holy Communion worthily, you will receive payment with interest for every unpaid labour of your life, in Jesus’ name.


There is another charm that is said to give promotion and good luck when eaten. In Yorubaland, it is known as Awure. The problem with these charms however, is that the witch doctors who prepare them are poor themselves, yet people believe they can make them prosperous. When you eat the Holy Communion however, it will bring you genuine promotion and those people who have been treating you as a servant will come and bow before you.


KEY POINT:


Eating the Holy Communion worthily could be what you need to get that breakthrough you have been praying for.


HYMN 1: All Hail The Power Of Jesus’ Name


1 All hail the power of Jesus’ name!

Let angels prostrate fall;

Bring forth the royal diadem,

And crown Him Lord of all.

Bring forth the royal diadem,

And crown Him Lord of all.


2 Let highborn seraphs tune the lyre,

And as they tune it, fall

Before His face Who tunes their choir,

Who fixed this floating ball;

Now hail the strength of Israel’s might,

And crown Him Lord of all.

Now hail the strength of Israel’s might,

And crown Him Lord of all.


4 Crown Him, ye martyrs of our God,

Who from His altar call;

Extol the stem of Jesse’s Rod,

And crown Him Lord of all.

Extol the stem of Jesse’s Rod,

And crown Him Lord of all.


5 Ye seed of Israel’s chosen race,

Ye ransomed from the fall,

Hail Him who saves you by His grace,

And crown Him Lord of all.


6 Hail Him, ye heirs of David’s line,

Whom David Lord did call,

The God incarnate, Man divine,

And crown Him Lord of all.

The God incarnate, Man divine,

And crown Him Lord of all.


7 Sinners, whose love can ne’er forget,

The wormwood and the gall,

Go spread your trophies at His feet,

And crown Him Lord of all.

< span style="font-size: large;">Go spread your trophies at His feet,

And crown Him Lord of
