TOPIC – Praise The Lord

MEMORISE: Make a joyful noise unto the Lord, all the earth: make a loud noise, and rejoice, and sing praise. – Psalm 98:4 (KJV)

READ: Psalm 67:5-7 (KJV)

5 Let the people praise thee, O God; let all the people praise thee.

6 Then shall the earth yield her increase; and God, even our own God, shall bless us.

7 God shall bless us; and all the ends of the earth shall fear him.

BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: John 3-4

Open Heaven For Today 2026 MESSAGE

God delights in His people praising Him. In fact, He loves the praises of His children so much that He inhabits it (Psalm 22:3). In Psalm 50:23, He said that anyone who praises Him is glorifying Him, and He promised to show His salvation to those who order their conversations right. This further reveals how much God wants His children to praise Him.

When God’s children praise Him, He fights their battles for them. This is what happened in 2 Chronicles 20:1-25, when three great kings conspired against King Jehoshaphat. The people of Judah praised God, and He defended them. God made the three kings and their armies fight and kill each other without the children of Judah lifting a sword. To top it all, Jehoshaphat and his people spent three days gathering the spoils of a war they never fought in.

Another good example of God fighting on behalf of His children who praise Him is found in Acts 16:25-26:

And at midnight Paul and Silas prayed, and sang praises unto God: and the prisoners heard them. And suddenly there was a great earthquake, so that the foundations of the prison were shaken: and immediately all the doors were opened, and every one’s bands were loosed.

I pray that God will fight for you, too, as you praise Him today, in Jesus’ name.

I remember the story of a Christian brother who shared the secret of his bumper harvests every year. According to him, after planting, he goes around his farm and sings praises to God. When it is time for him to harvest his crops, God blesses him even beyond his expectations. Beloved, I urge you to cultivate this practice. When you buy new products to sell, walk around the products or place them in front of you and begin to praise God. In your office, especially at your own desk, take time to praise God regularly. Do this often, and God will cause your business or career to experience supernatural increase.

God is, however, not interested in the praise and worship of sinners (John 9:31). It doesn’t matter how well a person can sing and dance; acceptable praise can only flow from a heart that is sanctified (Psalm 24:3-4). If you haven’t surrendered your life to Jesus, please do so right away, and you can rest assured that when you praise Him, He will bless you and fight your battles for you.

KEY POINT –

Praise from a sanctified heart draws divine protection and blessings.

HYMN 17 – Praise My Soul, The King Of Heaven.

1 Praise, my soul, the King of heaven;
to his feet your tribute bring.
Ransomed, healed, restored, forgiven,
evermore his praises sing.
Alleluia, alleluia!
Praise the everlasting King!

2 Praise him for his grace and favor
to his people in distress.
Praise him, still the same as ever,
slow to chide, and swift to bless.
Alleluia, alleluia!
Glorious in his faithfulness!

3 Fatherlike he tends and spares us;
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!

4 Angels, help us to adore him;
you behold him face to face.
Sun and moon, bow down before him,
dwellers all in time and space.
Alleluia, alleluia!
Praise with us the God of grace!

Open Heaven For Today 2026 Sunday Daily Devotional By Pastor E. A. Adeboye – He Is In Charge (2)

TOPIC – He Is In Charge (2)

MEMORISE: He sent divers sorts of flies among them, which devoured them; and frogs, which destroyed them. – Psalm 78:45 (KJV)

READ: Revelation 12:1-17 (KJV)

1 And there appeared a great wonder in heaven; a woman clothed with the sun, and the moon under her feet, and upon her head a crown of twelve stars:

2 And she being with child cried, travailing in birth, and pained to be delivered.

3 And there appeared another wonder in heaven; and behold a great red dragon, having seven heads and ten horns, and seven crowns upon his heads.

4 And his tail drew the third part of the stars of heaven, and did cast them to the earth: and the dragon stood before the woman which was ready to be delivered, for to devour her child as soon as it was born.

5 And she brought forth a man child, who was to rule all nations with a rod of iron: and her child was caught up unto God, and to his throne.

6 And the woman fled into the wilderness, where she hath a place prepared of God, that they should feed her there a thousand two hundred and threescore days.

7 And there was war in heaven: Michael and his angels fought against the dragon; and the dragon fought and his angels,

8 And prevailed not; neither was their place found any more in heaven.

9 And the great dragon was cast out, that old serpent, called the Devil, and Satan, which deceiveth the whole world: he was cast out into the earth, and his angels were cast out with him.

10 And I heard a loud voice saying in heaven, Now is come salvation, and strength, and the kingdom of our God, and the power of his Christ: for the accuser of our brethren is cast down, which accused them before our God day and night.

11 And they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb, and by the word of their testimony; and they loved not their lives unto the death.

12 Therefore rejoice, ye heavens, and ye that dwell in them. Woe to the inhabiters of the earth and of the sea! for the devil is come down unto you, having great wrath, because he knoweth that he hath but a short time.

13 And when the dragon saw that he was cast unto the earth, he persecuted the woman which brought forth the man child.

14 And to the woman were given two wings of a great eagle, that she might fly into the wilderness, into her place, where she is nourished for a time, and times, and half a time, from the face of the serpent.

15 And the serpent cast out of his mouth water as a flood after the woman, that he might cause her to be carried away of the flood.

16 And the earth helped the woman, and the earth opened her mouth, and swallowed up the flood which the dragon cast out of his mouth.

17 And the dragon was wroth with the woman, and went to make war with the remnant of her seed, which keep the commandments of God, and have the testimony of Jesus Christ.

BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: John 1-2

Open Heaven For Today 2026 MESSAGE

Yesterday, I shared how God is in charge of nature and everything in the world. When a fellow is on God’s side, nature cooperates to favour him or her. However, when a person puts himself or herself against God, nature works against such a person. Beloved, if you are against God, the elements of nature can decide to work against you. There is no better time than now to turn your life over to the One who is in charge of everything.

Jeremiah 22:28-30 tells us about a man named Coniah (also known as Jehoiachin). He was a king who lived contrary to God’s will (2 Kings 24:8-9), and God told the earth to write him childless. Nothing he did would have made him fruitful because the earth had been commanded by the One in charge of it to ensure that he remained unfruitful. Another person the forces of nature worked against was Sisera, as recorded in Judges 5:20-21. Sisera made himself a terror to God’s people (Judges 4:1-3), and when God wanted to judge him, the stars in their courses fought against him, and so did the river of Kishon. Similarly, when Pharaoh stubbornly refused to let God’s people go, God used different forces of nature to fight him. Animals rose against him (Psalm 78:43-46), hail fought against him (Exodus 9:18-26), and even the sun ceased shining for three days because of his disobedience (Exodus 10:21-23). It is better to pitch your tent with the One who is in charge because everything obeys Him; everything fulfils His decrees.

Today’s Bible reading tells us about a dragon and a woman. When it seemed as if all hope had been lost and the dragon would destroy the woman, the Bible says that the earth came to her aid. The earth opened its mouth and swallowed up the flood that the dragon cast out of its mouth. The earth helps those who follow the Lord and do His will; it favours those who favour the Lord’s righteous cause. When Adam sinned, the ground was cursed for his sake (Genesis 3:17-19). However, everyone in Christ is exempt from the curse of the law (Galatians 3:13).

Beloved, I pray that as you praise God and acknowledge Him as the only One in charge of everything in the world, the earth will yield its increase for you (Psalm 67:6), in Jesus’ name.

PRAYER POINT –

Lord, please cause the earth to work in my favour. Let it yield its increase to me, in Jesus’ name.

HYMN 21 – My Hope Is Built On Nothing Less

1 My hope is built on nothing less
Than Jesus’ blood and righteousness;
I dare not trust the sweetest frame,
But wholly lean on Jesus’ name.

Chorus:
On Christ, the solid Rock, I stand;
All other ground is sinking sand,
All other ground is sinking sand.

2 When darkness seems to veils His face,
I rest on His unchanging grace;
In every high and stormy gale,
My anchor holds within the veil.

3 His oath, His covenant, and blood,
Support me in the whelming flood;
When all around my soul gives way,
He then is all my hope and stay.

4 When He shall come with trumpet sound,
Oh, may I then in Him be found;
Dressed in His righteousness alone,
Faultless to stand before the throne.

Open Heaven For Today Saturday Daily Devotional By Pastor E. A. Adeboye – He Is In Charge (1)

TOPIC – He Is In Charge (1)

MEMORISE: For he saith to the snow, Be thou on the earth; likewise to the small rain, and to the great rain of his strength. – Job 37:6 (KJV)

READ: Mark 4:36-41 (KJV)

36 And when they had sent away the multitude, they took him even as he was in the ship. And there were also with him other little ships.

37 And there arose a great storm of wind, and the waves beat into the ship, so that it was now full.

38 And he was in the hinder part of the ship, asleep on a pillow: and they awake him, and say unto him, Master, carest thou not that we perish?

39 And he arose, and rebuked the wind, and said unto the sea, Peace, be still. And the wind ceased, and there was a great calm.

40 And he said unto them, Why are ye so fearful? how is it that ye have no faith?

41 And they feared exceedingly, and said one to another, What manner of man is this, that even the wind and the sea obey him?

BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: Luke 23-24

Open Heaven For Today 2026 MESSAGE

Some years ago, I was invited to a very important meeting in Denver, Colorado, USA. The meeting was scheduled to take place in January, and Denver is typically very cold during the first month of the year due to its winter season. As I prayed concerning the meeting, I asked God, “Daddy, should I go?” He replied, “Go.” Then, I asked, “What are we going to do about the winter?” He replied, “Don’t worry about that.” I spent three days in Denver, and during that time, people were wearing T-shirts because summer arrived suddenly. After I left Denver at 5pm on the third day, 12.5 centimetres of snow covered the city by 6pm. God suspended the winter so that His work could be done, and after it was completed, He released the snow to continue its course.

God is in charge of nature; He rules the world and everything in it. Today’s memory verse says that He talks to the snow. He tells the snow and the rain when to fall on the earth. God can decide to withhold the rain or snow from the earth or release it. He can suspend the laws of nature to fulfil His agenda and release them when His work is done. Psalm 148:8 says that fire, hail, snow, vapour, and even stormy winds fulfil His word. There is no wind that is too fierce that God cannot silence. There is no fire that is too wild that He cannot quench.

In today’s Bible reading, Jesus was in a ship with His disciples when a great storm arose. The wind was so fierce that the experienced fishermen among Jesus’ disciples knew that they were in grave danger. They probably did all they could professionally, but nothing worked. As a last resort, they ran to Jesus. When they woke Him, He showed them that He was in charge, as He arose and rebuked the wind.

Beloved, unlike Jesus’ disciples in today’s Bible reading, never make God your last resort when it comes to situations in your life; rather, you must always put Him first. When you give God complete control over the affairs of your life, He will enforce His supremacy over any contrary wind or circumstance that comes to challenge you. I decree that every contrary wind or situation that comes against you will submit to the supremacy of the Almighty God and cooperate with you, in Jesus’ name.

KEY POINT –

God rules over nature, and His supremacy is incontestable.

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:
Borne as on eagle-wings, safely his saints,
He sustaineth
Has 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 has breath join with Abraham’s
Seed to adore him! Let the Amen,
Sum all our praises again;
Now as we worship before him.
