TOPIC – He Needs Your Hands
MEMORISE: The righteous also shall hold on his way, and he that hath clean hands shall be stronger and stronger. – Job 17:9 (KJV)
READ: Psalm 24:1-5 (KJV)
1 The earth is the Lord’s, and the fulness thereof; the world, and they that dwell therein.
2 For he hath founded it upon the seas, and established it upon the floods.
3 Who shall ascend into the hill of the Lord? or who shall stand in his holy place?
4 He that hath clean hands, and a pure heart; who hath not lifted up his soul unto vanity, nor sworn deceitfully.
5 He shall receive the blessing from the Lord, and righteousness from the God of his salvation.
BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: John 13-15
Open Heaven For Today 2026 MESSAGE
Whenever God wants to perform signs and wonders on earth, He looks for vessels He can use. He usually seeks people who will make themselves available to Him so that His purpose on earth can be fulfilled. One of the things that God loves to do is to heal those who are sick, and He often likes to do this through the hands of those who are fully surrendered to Him. If you are a child of God, God needs your hands to heal the sick. Mark 16:18 says that you shall lay hands on the sick, and they shall recover. Of course, God can decide to heal a person directly without using any human medium, but more often than not, he chooses to use His children’s hands.
And God wrought special miracles by the hands of Paul: – Acts 19:11
In the Scripture above, God was the One who performed special miracles, but He needed Paul’s hands to accomplish them. If you surrender your hands to God, He will perform special miracles through you as well. However, for God to use your hands, they must be clean. Today’s Bible reading tells us what it means to have clean hands. When your hands are clean, you will not lift up your soul to vanity or swear deceitfully. People who lift up their souls to vanity live only for worldly pleasures. Such individuals can do anything to achieve their goals, and Proverbs 28:20 says that anyone who makes haste to be rich shall not be innocent. Also, those who swear deceitfully are not trustworthy, and God will not use the hands of such individuals to do His work.
Beloved, if you want God to use your hands, then you must be ready to live by His standards. Our memory verse today says that he who has clean hands shall be stronger and stronger. When your hands are clean, you will become a mighty vessel in the hands of God. You must also have a pure heart (Matthew 5:8) and be willing to do whatever He tells you, whether it sounds logical or not (John 2:5).
2 Timothy 2:19 says, “Nevertheless the foundation of God standeth sure, having this seal, The Lord knoweth them that are his. And, Let every one that nameth the name of Christ depart from iniquity.” God needs your hands, but He will only use them if they are clean and pure.
KEY POINT –
If you want to be a useful vessel in God’s hands, you must have clean hands.
HYMN 7 – I Am Thine O Lord
1 l am Thine, O Lord
I have heard Thy voice,
And it told Thy love to me;
But long to rise in the arms of faith
And be closer drawn to Thee.
Chorus:
Draw me nearer, nearer blessed Lord,
To the cross where Thou hast died.
Draw me nearer, nearer, nearer bless Lord,
To Thy precious, bleeding side.
2 Consecrate me now to Thy service, Lord,
By the power of grace divine;
Let my soul look up with a steadfast hope,
And my will be lost in Thine.
3 Oh the pure delight of a single hour
That before Thy throne I spend,
When I kneel in prayer, and with Thee,
my God
I commune as friend with friend!
4 There are depths of love
that I cannot know
Till I cross the narrow sea;
There are heights of joy
that I may not reach
Till I rest in peace with Thee.

MEMORISE: Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, and cometh down from the Father of lights, with whom is no variableness, neither shadow of turning. – James 1:17 (KJV)

Open Heaven For Today 2026 Thursday Daily Devotional By Pastor E. A. Adeboye – Purified For Higher Service
Click HERE for the Previous Open Heaven Devotional
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.
