TOPIC – Sin And God’s Support
MEMORISE: “For thou art not a God that hath pleasure in wickedness: neither shall evil dwell with thee.” – Psalm 5:4 (KJV)
READ: Isaiah 59:1-2 (KJV)
1 Behold, the Lord’s hand is not shortened, that it cannot save; neither his ear heavy, that it cannot hear:
2 But your iniquities have separated between you and your God, and your sins have hid his face from you, that he will not hear.
BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: Ephesians 1-3
Open Heaven For Today 2025 MESSAGE
When Joshua became the leader of the Israelites, God promised to support him all the way and also told him that wherever the sole of his foot touched, he would have it (Joshua 1:1-5). All through the period Joshua led the children of Israel through the wilderness, he found this to be true until the day the Israelites were defeated by a small nation called Ai. After this defeat, Joshua went to God and asked for the reason they lost, and God told him that there was sin in the camp of the Israelites (Joshua 7:2-11). This shows us that even when you are doing the will of God, and He has promised to support you all the way, He will withdraw His support the moment you start engaging in sin. Sin will turn a child of God into an enemy of God, and because God’s eyes are too pure to behold iniquity (Habakkuk 1:13), He will withdraw from such a fellow.
God made several wonderful promises to Moses. For instance, He told Moses that His presence would go with him and He would give him rest (Exodus 33:14). In Exodus 33:1, He also told Moses to go up with the children of Israel and take them to the Promised Land which He had sworn to give to their fathers – Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. However, when Moses disobeyed God, the Lord withdrew His support, and Moses died in the wilderness (Deuteronomy 34:4-5). Disobedience to God’s instructions will make a person lose His support.
Saul was Israel’s first king, and God had planned to establish his kingdom forever (1 Samuel 13:13). However, after he sat on the throne as king, he became proud and disobedient to God (1 Samuel 15:1-30). This made God to change His mind, withdraw His support, and give the kingdom to David. Samson was also destined for greatness. However, he started living in sin, and he thought God would never leave him. On the day God’s support was withdrawn from him, he didn’t even know until the enemies had captured him (Judges 16:20).
Beloved, are you engaging in anything that will take God’s support away from you? If you are engaging in secret sins, desist from them immediately. Don’t think that there will not be consequences because things are still going on as usual. God is surely taking records. Repent today before He decides to turn His back on you. May the Lord not withdraw His support from you, in Jesus’ name.
REFLECTION
Are you doing anything that will cause God to withdraw His support from you?
HYMN 31 – Yield Not To Temptation
1 Yield not to temptation, for yielding is sin;
Each vict’ry will help you some other to win;
Fight manfully onward, dark passions subdue;
Look ever to Jesus, He will carry you through.
Refrain:
Ask the Savior to help you,
Comfort, strengthen, and keep you;
He is willing to aid you,
He will carry you through.
2 Shun evil companions, bad language disdain,
God’s name hold in rev’rence, nor take it in vain;
Be thoughtful and earnest, kindhearted and true;
Look ever to Jesus, He will carry you through.
3 To him that o’ercometh, God giveth a crown,
Through faith we will conquer, though often cast down;
He who is our Savior, our strength will renew;
Look ever to Jesus, He will carry you through.

Open Heaven For Today 2025 Sunday Daily Devotional By Pastor E. A. Adeboye – The True Meaning Of Promotion
Click HERE for the Previous Open Heaven Devotional
TOPIC – The True Meaning Of Promotion
MEMORISE: “This is a true saying, if a man desire the office of a bishop, he desireth a good work.” – 1 Timothy 3:1 (KJV)
READ: 1 Peter 5:1-4 (KJV)
1 The elders which are among you I exhort, who am also an elder, and a witness of the sufferings of Christ, and also a partaker of the glory that shall be revealed:
2 Feed the flock of God which is among you, taking the oversight thereof, not by constraint, but willingly; not for filthy lucre, but of a ready mind;
3 Neither as being lords over God’s heritage, but being examples to the flock.
4 And when the chief Shepherd shall appear, ye shall receive a crown of glory that fadeth not away.
BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: Galatians 4-6
Open Heaven For Today 2025 MESSAGE
When people are promoted in their secular jobs, they can get promoted to positions where they will have less work to do than when they were at lower levels. In the kingdom of God, however, the real meaning of promotion is more work.
I recall many years ago, when I had not yet become the General Overseer of The Redeemed Christian Church of God, I saw the General Superintendent praying all through the night on one occasion, and I was worried. I thought something terrible had happened, so I asked him what the problem was the following morning. He laughed and said that I would understand much later. Many years later, when I became the General Overseer, I understood because I now pray all night too. As God promotes you in ministry, the work and sacrifices that you need to engage in will increase. For example, I had never spent Father’s Day with my family until 2020, during the coronavirus-induced lockdown. I am also extremely happy whenever I have the opportunity to sleep in my own bed because it now happens very rarely. The amount of time I have to rest now is less than the amount of time I had to do so when The Redeemed Christian Church of God had 100,000 members. When God promotes you in ministry, don’t get excited about it in the flesh. Instead, you should be sober because it means that you have to increase your spiritual capacity so you can be a blessing to more souls. You should seek to draw closer to God rather than waste time rejoicing among men.
When a fellow is promoted in God’s Kingdom, it is a call to more and greater responsibilities. Hence, when you see genuine ministers of God being promoted in ministry, don’t envy them. The higher you go in God’s kingdom, the more the good work you must do increases.
It is also important to know that when God promotes men and gives them greater responsibilities, He also supplies them with a greater measure of grace. You do not have to be scared about greater responsibilities that come with God’s promotion because He will make all grace abound to you as He lifts you higher (2 Corinthians 9:8). As we read earlier in today’s memory verse, Paul said that desiring a higher office in God’s kingdom is good. Therefore, you should desire for God to keep promoting you as you continue to serve Him.
KEY POINT
Promotion in God’s kingdom is a call to greater responsibilities
HYMN 8 – I Need Thee Every Hour
1 I need Thee ev’ry hour,
Most gracious Lord;
No tender voice like Thine
Can peace afford.
Chorus:
I need Thee, O I need Thee,
Ev’ry hour I need Thee
O bless me now, my Saviour
I come to Thee!
2 1 need Thee every hour
Stay Thou nearby
Temptations lose their power
When Thou art nigh.
3 I need Thee every hour,
In joy or pain;
Come quickly and abide
Or life is vain.
4 l need Thee every hour
Teach me Thy will,
And Thy rich promises
In me fulfill.
5 1 need Thee every hour
Most Holy One;
Oh, make me thine indeed,
Thou blessed Son!

Open Heaven For Today 2025 Saturday Daily Devotional By Pastor E. A. Adeboye – Let The Word Dwell In You
Click HERE for the Previous Open Heaven Devotional
TOPIC – Let The Word Dwell In You
MEMORISE: “Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly in all wisdom; teaching and admonishing one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing with grace in your hearts to the Lord.” – Colossians 3:16 (KJV)
READ: John 15:4-7 (KJV)
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.
5 I am the vine, ye are the branches: He that abideth in me, and I in him, the same bringeth forth much fruit: for without me ye can do nothing.
6 If a man abide not in me, he is cast forth as a branch, and is withered; and men gather them, and cast them into the fire, and they are burned.
7 If ye abide in me, and my words abide in you, ye shall ask what ye will, and it shall be done unto you.
BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: Galatians 1-3
Open Heaven For Today 2025 MESSAGE
The Bible says in John 1:1, “In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.” The Scripture went further to say, in verse 14 of the same chapter, “And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth.” When you dwell so much on the word of God that it leaves the pages of the Bible and begins to dwell in you and become so real to you like your own flesh, you will begin to see the glory of God. 2 Corinthians 3:18 says:
But we all, with open face beholding as in a glass the glory of the Lord, are changed into the same image from glory to glory, even as by the Spirit of the Lord.
The more of God’s glory you see, the more you are transformed into His image from glory to glory. Hence, if you want to radiate God’s glory, you must study your Bible daily and meditate on it day and night. The word of God is powerful, and if you allow it to dwell in your heart, you will experience tremendous transformation in every aspect of your life.
The name of the LORD is a strong tower: the righteous runneth into it, and is safe. – Proverbs 18:10
The Scripture above tells us that God’s name is so powerful and that it is a fortress that preserves those who run into it. However, as powerful as His name is, Psalm 138:2 says, “I will worship toward thy holy temple, and praise thy name for thy lovingkindness and for thy truth: for thou hast magnified thy word above all thy name.” God’s word is even more powerful than His name. This is why you must not joke with the word of God. Joshua 1:8 says that you should meditate on it day and night so that your ways can be prosperous and you can have good success. Good success implies that there is also bad success. Beloved, only those who allow God’s word to dwell in their hearts and rule their lives can enjoy good success. I pray that you will indeed immerse yourself in the word of God and allow it to dwell richly in your heart so you can enjoy good success in every area of your life, in Jesus’ name.
KEY POINT
When you allow God’s word to dwell in you, you will enjoy good success.
HYMN 3 – Ancient Words
1 Holy words long preserved
For our walk in this world
They resound with God’s own heart
Oh, let the ancient words impart
Chorus:
Ancient words, ever true
Changing me and changing you
We have come with open hearts
Oh, let the ancient words impart
2 Words of life, words of hope
Give us strength, help us cope
In this world, where e’er we roam
Ancient words will guide us home
3 Holy words of our faith
Handed down to this age
Came to us through sacrifice
Oh, heed the faithful words of Christ
4 Holy words long preserved
For our walk in this world
They resound with God’s own heart
Oh, let the ancient words impart
