MEMORISE: Are they not all ministering spirits, sent forth to minister for them who shall be heirs of salvation? – Hebrews 1:14 (KJV)
READ: Acts 8:26-40 (KJV)
26 And the angel of the Lord spake unto Philip, saying, Arise, and go toward the south unto the way that goeth down from Jerusalem unto Gaza, which is desert.
27 And he arose and went: and, behold, a man of Ethiopia, an eunuch of great authority under Candace queen of the Ethiopians, who had the charge of all her treasure, and had come to Jerusalem for to worship,
28 Was returning, and sitting in his chariot read Esaias the prophet.
29 Then the Spirit said unto Philip, Go near, and join thyself to this chariot.
30 And Philip ran thither to him, and heard him read the prophet Esaias, and said, Understandest thou what thou readest?
31 And he said, How can I, except some man should guide me? And he desired Philip that he would come up and sit with him.
32 The place of the scripture which he read was this, He was led as a sheep to the slaughter; and like a lamb dumb before his shearer, so opened he not his mouth:
33 In his humiliation his judgment was taken away: and who shall declare his generation? for his life is taken from the earth.
34 And the eunuch answered Philip, and said, I pray thee, of whom speaketh the prophet this? of himself, or of some other man?
35 Then Philip opened his mouth, and began at the same scripture, and preached unto him Jesus.
36 And as they went on their way, they came unto a certain water: and the eunuch said, See, here is water; what doth hinder me to be baptized?
37 And Philip said, If thou believest with all thine heart, thou mayest. And he answered and said, I believe that Jesus Christ is the Son of God.
38 And he commanded the chariot to stand still: and they went down both into the water, both Philip and the eunuch; and he baptized him.
39 And when they were come up out of the water, the Spirit of the Lord caught away Philip, that the eunuch saw him no more: and he went on his way rejoicing.
40 But Philip was found at Azotus: and passing through he preached in all the cities, till he came to Caesarea.
BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: Luke 16-18
Open Heaven For Today 2026 MESSAGE
I mentioned yesterday that one of the ways God sends help to His children from heaven is through angelic interventions. I recall experiencing one when I was about six or seven years old. An elder sister of mine got married and moved away to her husband’s farm, which was a long way from our home. One day, I asked her, “Where is your farm?”, and she gave me directions to the place: “When you arrive at so and so location, turn right; when you reach so and so spot, turn left.” A little while thereafter, I decided to visit her on her husband’s farm. Being a little child, I did not know how far it was, so I set out on the journey. I tried to follow the directions she gave me, but I eventually got lost. I did not know how to get back home, nor did I know how to get to the farm I was going to.
Childishly, I looked up to heaven and said, “God, please help me.” By the time I looked down, I saw a little white dog wagging its tail and looking at me as if I were its friend. Since I was clueless about where I was, I followed the dog, hoping it would lead me to where people could help me. Surprisingly, the dog led me to my sister’s farm. When I got there, and my sister saw me, she was alarmed and asked, “How did you get here? Who brought you here?” I said, “That little white dog.” She replied that she didn’t have a dog on her farm. Immediately, we stepped outside the farm and began to look everywhere. Amazingly, the dog I had just followed to the farm was nowhere to be found. I firmly believe that God sent an angel to help me so that I could one day preach the gospel to the world.
Today’s memory verse describes angels as ministering spirits sent forth to minister to those who are to be heirs of salvation. In today’s Bible reading, God sent an angel to give Philip specific directions about the next phase of his ministry. After winning the city of Samaria for Jesus, it was time for him to move on to the next phase of his mission, and the angel told him exactly where to go.
Beloved, God still sends His angels to guide His people. I pray that you will not miss such angelic ministrations, in Jesus’ name.
KEY POINT
Angelic ministrations are part of God’s blessings to His saints.
HYMN 13 – Jesus Loves Me! This I Know
1 Jesus loves me! This I know,
For the Bible tells me so;
Little ones to Him belong,
They are weak but He is strong.
Refrain:
Yes, Jesus loves me! Yes, Jesus loves me!
Yes, Jesus loves me! The Bible tells me so.
2 Jesus loves me. He who died,
Heaven’s gate to open wide;
He will wash away my sin,
Let His little child come in.
3 Jesus loves me, loves me still
Tho’ I’m very weak and ill
From His shining throne on high
He will watch me where lie.
4 Jesus Loves Me! He Will Stay
Close Beside Me All The Way;
If l love Him when I die.
He will take me home on high.

MEMORISE: The angel of the Lord encampeth round about them that fear him, and delivereth them. – Psalm 34:7 (KJV)
READ: Psalm 112:1-10 (KJV)
1 Praise ye the Lord. Blessed is the man that feareth the Lord, that delighteth greatly in his commandments.
2 His seed shall be mighty upon earth: the generation of the upright shall be blessed.
3 Wealth and riches shall be in his house: and his righteousness endureth for ever.
4 Unto the upright there ariseth light in the darkness: he is gracious, and full of compassion, and righteous.
5 A good man sheweth favour, and lendeth: he will guide his affairs with discretion.
6 Surely he shall not be moved for ever: the righteous shall be in everlasting remembrance.
7 He shall not be afraid of evil tidings: his heart is fixed, trusting in the Lord.
8 His heart is established, he shall not be afraid, until he see his desire upon his enemies.
9 He hath dispersed, he hath given to the poor; his righteousness endureth for ever; his horn shall be exalted with honour.
10 The wicked shall see it, and be grieved; he shall gnash with his teeth, and melt away: the desire of the wicked shall perish.
BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: Luke 13-15
Open Heaven For Today 2026 MESSAGE
A person who fears God will always enjoy assistance from heaven. When I talk about enjoying assistance from heaven, it includes receiving help from beings who live in heaven, specifically the angels.
Today’s memory verse tells us that the angel of the Lord encamps around those who fear Him and delivers them. You can be certain of angelic interventions and rescues when you fear the Lord. Today’s Bible reading refers to someone who fears the Lord as a blessed person. When you fear the Lord and delight greatly in His commandments, you will be blessed, and you can expect angels to intervene in your affairs.
In 1 Kings 19:4-8, when Elijah was so discouraged that he felt like dying, God sent an angel to him twice to strengthen him with food. Before this incident, he had confronted the prophets of Baal, burnt their altars, and killed them. He had purged the land of idolatry because he feared the Lord (1 Kings 18:1-40). In Daniel 6:19-22, an angel came and shut the mouths of lions so that they would not harm Daniel because he chose to obey God’s commandments (Daniel 6:4-10). In 2 Kings 19:32-37, a single angel from the Lord fought against Sennacherib and destroyed 185,000 Assyrian soldiers in one night. This was because King Hezekiah was a blessed man who feared the Lord (2 Kings 19:14-19). In Matthew 2:13-15, an angel warned Joseph in a dream that Herod was seeking to kill Jesus. In Acts 12:5-11, an angel came to set Peter free from prison the night before he was to be killed. Every one of these people experienced angelic interventions because they feared God.
A lady once shared her experience during a flight when the aircraft encountered turbulence, and it appeared as if it was going to crash. As she cried out to God for help, she looked out of the window and saw an angel smiling at her as he carried the plane in the palm of his hand. Immediately, she stopped being anxious and became assured that there was nothing to worry about. I prophesy to you that God will send His angel to rescue you in turbulent times, in Jesus’ name.
Beloved, when you fear the Lord and obey His commandments at all times, you can rest assured that the hosts of angels in heaven will come to your aid in times of need.
KEY POINT
Those who fear the Lord and delight greatly in His commandments will always enjoy help from heaven.
HYMN 27 – What A Friend We Have In Jesus
1 What a friend we have in Jesus,
all our sins and griefs to bear!
What a privilege to carry
everything to God in prayer!
O what peace we often forfeit,
O what needless pain we bear,
all because we do not carry
everything to God in prayer!
2 Have we trials and temptations?
Is there trouble anywhere?
We should never be discouraged;
take it to the Lord in prayer!
Can we find a friend so faithful
who will all our sorrows share?
Jesus knows our every weakness;
take it to the Lord in prayer!
3 Are we weak and heavy laden,
cumbered with a load of care?
Precious Savior, still our refuge-
take it to the Lord in prayer!
Do your friends despise, forsake you?
Take it to the Lord in prayer!
In his arms he’ll take and shield you;
you will find a solace there.

Open Heaven For Today 2026 Monday Daily Devotional By Pastor E. A. Adeboye – Fervent Prayers
Click HERE for the Previous Open Heaven Devotional
TOPIC – Fervent Prayers
MEMORISE: But if from thence thou shalt seek the Lord thy God, thou shalt find him, if thou seek him with all thy heart and with all thy soul. – Deuteronomy 4:29 (KJV)
READ: Matthew 15:22-28 (KJV)
22 And, behold, a woman of Canaan came out of the same coasts, and cried unto him, saying, Have mercy on me, O Lord, thou son of David; my daughter is grievously vexed with a devil.
23 But he answered her not a word. And his disciples came and besought him, saying, Send her away; for she crieth after us.
24 But he answered and said, I am not sent but unto the lost sheep of the house of Israel.
25 Then came she and worshipped him, saying, Lord, help me.
26 But he answered and said, It is not meet to take the children’s bread, and to cast it to dogs.
27 And she said, Truth, Lord: yet the dogs eat of the crumbs which fall from their masters’ table.
28 Then Jesus answered and said unto her, O woman, great is thy faith: be it unto thee even as thou wilt. And her daughter was made whole from that very hour.
BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: Luke 11-12
Open Heaven For Today 2026 MESSAGE
There are different kinds of prayers, but often, the way people pray reveals the depth of their longing and how urgently they desire God’s intervention. Imagine a case where two critically injured people are in a hospital, and one says, “Oh, doctor, come and help me treat this wound,” and then brings out his or her phone to watch cartoons. Then, the other fellow screams out, “Doctor, I am in serious pain. Help me now!” Who do you think the doctor will attend to first? Definitely, the doctor will first attend to the one who screamed out loud for help.
Many people come to God’s presence casually, speaking ‘Queen’s English’, with ‘steeze and composure’, as the youths would say. However, some other people pray to God with their whole heart and strength, and, like Jacob in Genesis 32:26, they say, “Lord, I will not let You go unless You bless me!”
Sometimes, my friends abroad ask me why we experience so many miracles in Africa, while there are very few in the so-called civilised world. I tell them that it is simply because they believe that they have alternatives. When a person has no one else to talk to apart from God, he or she will know how to pray fervently. Also, if a fellow has an illness that has defied all forms of treatment, such a fellow will understand what it means to pray fervently.
James 5:16 says that the effectual fervent prayers of the righteous avail much. In today’s Bible reading, when the Canaanite woman asked Jesus to deliver her demon-possessed daughter, she cried unto Him, saying, “Have mercy on me, O Lord, thou Son of David.” That woman was not casual about her prayers; she kept crying out to Jesus until she received a response. Likewise, in Mark 10:46-52, blind Bartimaeus cried out to Jesus with a loud voice, “Jesus, Son of David, have mercy on me.” All attempts by people to shut him up proved unsuccessful, as he continued to call out to Jesus for help. Eventually, Jesus heard him, and he got his miracle.
Beloved, if anything is troubling you, cry unto God today with all your heart and soul, and He will hear you. Call upon Him with all your strength and humility, and He will grant your requests. He will, however, not listen to the prayers of a sinner who has refused to repent and forsake his or her sins (Isaiah 59:1-2).
ACTION POINT
If you are facing any challenge, pray fervently to God and ask Him to intervene in your situation.
HYMN 15 – Pass Me Not, O Gentle Saviour
1 Pass me not, O gentle Savior
Hear my humble cry,
While on others Thou art calling,
Do not pass me by.
Savior, Savior,
Hear my humble cry;
While on others Thou art calling,
Do not pass me by.
2 Let me at a throne of mercy
Find a sweet relief;
Kneeling there in deep contrition
Help my unbelief.
3 Trusting only in Thy merit
Would I seek Thy face
Heal my wounded, broken spirit,
Save me by Thy grace.
4 Thou the Spring of all my comfort
More than life to me
Whom have I on earth beside Thee
Whom in heav’n but Thee?
