to his feet your tribute bring.
Ransomed, healed, restored, forgiven,

Praise the everlasting King!

to his people in distress.
Praise him, still the same as ever,
slow to chide, and swift to bless.

well our feeble frame he knows.
In his hand he gently bears us,
rescues us from all our foes.
Alleluia, alleluia!
Widely yet his mercy flows!

you behold him face to face.

Open Heaven For Today 2026 Thursday Daily Devotional By Pastor E. A. Adeboye – Purified For Higher Service

TOPIC – Purified For Higher Service
MEMORISE: And he shall sit as a refiner and purifier of silver: and he shall purify the sons of Levi, and purge them as gold and silver, that they may offer unto the Lord an offering in righteousness. – Malachi 3:3 (KJV)
READ: 2 Timothy 2:20-26 (KJV)
20 But in a great house there are not only vessels of gold and of silver, but also of wood and of earth; and some to honour, and some to dishonour.
21 If a man therefore purge himself from these, he shall be a vessel unto honour, sanctified, and meet for the master’s use, and prepared unto every good work.
22 Flee also youthful lusts: but follow righteousness, faith, charity, peace, with them that call on the Lord out of a pure heart.
23 But foolish and unlearned questions avoid, knowing that they do gender strifes.
24 And the servant of the Lord must not strive; but be gentle unto all men, apt to teach, patient,
25 In meekness instructing those that oppose themselves; if God peradventure will give them repentance to the acknowledging of the truth;
26 And that they may recover themselves out of the snare of the devil, who are taken captive by him at his will.
BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: John 9-10
Open Heaven For Today 2026 MESSAGE
When God calls people, He purifies them before sending them into the field to serve Him. God accepts people as they are, but He never leaves them unchanged. A fellow can go to God with many sinful attitudes and behaviours, but if the fellow wants to be useful for His service, he or she has to let go of such impurities.
Beloved, God loves you the way you are, but He cannot use you the way you are if your life is full of sin. To be useful in His vineyard, you must allow Him to purify you. Even if you have been cleansed and have become useful in God’s service, He is calling you to a higher level of consecration. This is because the more purified a person becomes, the more useful he or she will be to the Master.
In Isaiah 6:1-8, Isaiah had a vision in which he saw the Lord. Before that time, he had given several prophecies to the Israelites. He was a useful vessel in the Master’s hand, but God wanted him to come into a position of higher service. In his vision, he saw the Almighty God sitting upon His throne and realised how filthy he was. Even though he had been serving God up to that time, he was still filthy. A child of God who is still dealing with certain weaknesses can be used of God at a certain level; however, if the Lord would use such a person for His highest purposes, He would first purify him or her some more. When Isaiah saw the Lord, he cried out, “Woe is me! For I am a man of unclean lips.” He knew that he would not qualify for God’s higher calling if he remained in that state. I pray that the Lord will visit you and purify you for His higher purposes, in Jesus’ name.
Today’s Bible reading tells us the kinds of vessels we can find in God’s great house. There are vessels of gold and silver, which can be used for higher purposes, as they have undergone the fire of purification, and vessels of wood and earth for lesser uses. God doesn’t determine the kind of vessel you will be; you determine that yourself by how far you allow Him go in purifying you. (2 Timothy 2:21) says that those who purge themselves will become vessels unto honour, sanctified, and meet for the Master’s use, and prepared unto every good work. Beloved, God is ready to promote you to His higher service if you surrender yourself to His purification.
REFLECTION –
Is there anything you must purge yourself of to become fit for the Master’s higher service?
HYMN 9 – What Can Wash Away My Stain
1 What can wash away my sin?
Nothing but the blood of Jesus.
What can make me whole again?
Nothing but the blood of Jesus.
Chorus:
Oh! precious is the flow
That makes me white as snow;
No other fount l know;
Nothing but the blood of Jesus.
2 For my pardon this I see:
Nothing but the blood of Jesus.
For my cleansing this my plea:
Nothing but the blood of Jesus.
3 Nothing can for sin atone:
Nothing but the blood of Jesus.
Naught of good that I have done:
Nothing but the blood of Jesus.
4 This is all my hope and peace:
Nothing but the blood of Jesus.
This is all my righteousness:
Nothing but the blood of Jesus.

Open Heaven For Today 2026 Wednesday Daily Devotional By Pastor E. A. Adeboye – Purify Yourself

TOPIC – Purify Yourself
MEMORISE: Draw nigh to God, and he will draw nigh to you. Cleanse your hands, ye sinners; and purify your hearts, ye double minded. – James 4:8 (KJV)
READ: Numbers 8:5-11 (KJV)
5 And the Lord spake unto Moses, saying,
6 Take the Levites from among the children of Israel, and cleanse them.
7 And thus shalt thou do unto them, to cleanse them: Sprinkle water of purifying upon them, and let them shave all their flesh, and let them wash their clothes, and so make themselves clean.
8 Then let them take a young bullock with his meat offering, even fine flour mingled with oil, and another young bullock shalt thou take for a sin offering.
9 And thou shalt bring the Levites before the tabernacle of the congregation: and thou shalt gather the whole assembly of the children of Israel together:
10 And thou shalt bring the Levites before the Lord: and the children of Israel shall put their hands upon the Levites:
11 And Aaron shall offer the Levites before the Lord for an offering of the children of Israel, that they may execute the service of the Lord.
BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: John 7-8
Open Heaven For Today 2026 MESSAGE
Many years ago, I attended a Pentecostal conference in Kenya, where several anointed and popular ministers in the Pentecostal movement at the time were present. Even though I was not invited, I attended anyway because I was so hungry for God. Towards the end of the conference, we had a session titled ‘meditation.’ During this session, someone played the guitar and sang choruses, while the rest of us prayed in the Spirit. I was meditating when suddenly, I was transported to heaven.
It was an open vision because I wasn’t sleeping. I found myself in a very large room, which looked like a dome. There was someone sitting on a throne extremely far away. Angels stood on both sides of the room, millions of them to my right, and millions of them to my left. They were quite huge, and their appearance is very difficult to describe. They were not white; there are just no words to describe them. The closest I can get to describing them is when you put clear water in a crystal glass; there is no word to describe that type of colour.
When I turned to the right, the angels to my right moved back; when I turned to the left, the angels to my left also moved back. None of them said a word, but it occurred to me to take a look at myself. When I did, I noticed that I was completely naked and was covered with all kinds of rubbish as if I had just been pulled out of a sewer. On noticing that, I understood why the angels moved away from me, and the vision vanished suddenly. After seeing that, I told the Almighty God, “When I return to that throne room, I won’t come dirty.” That is the reason holiness has become a priority to me.
Beloved, without holiness, no man can see God (Hebrews 12:14). If you are still living in sin, you cannot see God, and any man who cannot see God cannot have access to the good and perfect gifts that can only come from Him (James 1:17). Do not serve God with an impure heart. It is time to draw nearer to Him and ask Him to purify you from anything that might be preventing you from seeing Him. If you seek Him with all your heart, you will find Him (Jeremiah 29:13), and you will experience His goodness in all areas of your life.
REFLECTION –
Are you living a holy life and seeking God with all your heart?
HYMN 23 – All To Jesus I Surrender
1 All to Jesus I surrender,
All to Him I freely give;
I will ever love and trust Him,
In His presence daily live.
Chorus:
surrender all, I surrender all;
All to Thee, my blessed Saviour,
I surrender all.
2 All to Jesus I surrender,
Humbly at His feet I bow;
Worldly pleasures all forsaken
Take me, Jesus, take me now
3 All to Jesus I surrender,
Lord, I give myself to Thee;
Fill me with Thy love and power,
Let Thy blessing fall on me.
4 All to Jesus I surrender,
Now I feel the sacred flame,
O the joy of full salvation!
Glory, glory to His name!
