OPEN HEAVENS DEVOTIONAL-GOD'S REMEMBRANCE AND DELIVERANCE III- 24/03/2014


GOD'S REMEMBRANCE AND DELIVERANCE III- 24/03/2014

Yesterday’s message was titled “GOD'S REMEMBRANCE AND DELIVERANCE II ”. Today’s message is titled “GOD'S REMEMBRANCE AND DELIVERANCE III” as provided by Pastor E. A. Adeboye in Open Heavens Devotional (Adeboye, 2014). In today’s message, we have been asked to memorise Nehemiah 13:31: Remember me O my God, for good. ” and read 1 San:uel 1:17-19.   The Bible in one year for today has been taken from Ezekiel 17-18 and Psalm 69:1-21.(Adeboye, 2014).

 "One truth the children of God must continue to O remember is that it takes divine remembrance to daily  experience deliverance in their lives and ministries. The best way to explain this is to interpret ”remembrance” as ”attention”, because God is never forgetful. In Isaiah 49:15 God said:
”Can a woman forget her sucking child that she should not have compassion on the son of her womb? yea, they may forget,  yet will I not forget thee.” 
So, God does not forget, but He may decide to ignore you if you continue to live in sin. One person that experienced divine remembrance was Hannah. The Lord remembered Hannah by paying attention to her prayer in_answer to E_|i's prayer. 1 Samuel 1 :1 7 says:
”Then Eli answered and said, Go in peace: and the God of Israel grant thee thy petition that thou hast asked of him.”
Hannah was under the bondage of barrenness for several years, but when God remembered her, she was delivered from the bondage of unfruitfulness. To someone using this devotional, I pray that the Almighty will remember and deliver you from allforms of bondage today in Jesus‘ Name. Let us learn from Hannah what she did to draw divine attention to herself and her situation. First, she prayed earnestly and fasted for God's attention. At times we need to demonstrate our seriousness concerning what we really want God to do for us by embarking on prayer and fasting. Jesus taught His disciples this truth in Mark 9:29. In addition, for God to remember you in your unpleasant situation, you have to cooperate with Him by playing your own role. My experiences have revealed to me the mistakes some children of God make as they expect God to play their own roles together with His. This ended at Calvary where God suffered as a man, but there He declared: IT IS FINISHED. If you are looking for a job, write applications and go out to attend interviews because God will not write an application letter for you, neither will He attend the interview on your behalf. Sufficient is the fact that He will back you up during the interview. The Bible reveals something that many may not pay attention to which, of course, was fundamental to the divine remembrance of Hannah.What is it? 1 Samuel 1:19“ says that:
”and Elkanah knew Hannah his wife; and the LORD remembered her.”
What could have happened to Hannah's prayer if she and her husband did not play their part in this regard? Beloved, let us Cooperate with God, He will remember us for good in Jesus’ Name."

Today's action point is to Pray, fast and take steps under the guidance of the Holy Spirit concerning that situation that is bothering you. You will experience’ divine remembrance and deliverance

Valentine or Violent-Time (Part 3)

Over the years, some religious folks have defined and classified February 14 as the devil's day. They argue that the Valentine was not a Saint, and even if he was, it was not proper to keep a day to remember him. By God's grace, I have subjected myself to regular study of the scriptures and godly books in several libraries especially the e-libraries. My philosophy has been guided by the knowledge acquired from comparative and HOLYGHOST inspired study. If God is not against Christmas, and Easter, then why should He be against Valentine's Day? Many of us have known so much that we have created our own "Newer Testament" after the new testament of the Holy Bible. Is God against celebrations? Definitely, No! Jesus visited a wedding in Cana, he was at most Jewish feasts, and He organized a feast by feeding, on one occasion, 5,000 men. Our God loves feasting. He loves to see us celebrate. But all feastings must be done in Holiness in order to be approved ...

OPEN HEAVENS DEVOTIONAL - CARE FOR THE BRETHREN-30/04/2014

" CARE FOR THE BRETHREN " In today’s message, we have been asked to memorise   Philippians 4:19 : " But my God shall supply all your need according to his riches in glory by Christ Jesus ” Today's reading was taken from  Romans 15:25-27  and the Bible reading in one year is   Revelation 8 to Revelation 11 and Psalm 93 (Adeboye, 2014). Quoted below is today's message for your input "Apostle Paul in the Bible reading for today, teaches us one missing ingredient of true discipleship in today’s contemporary Church; which is the ministry of care. Despite the great anointing with which Apostle Paul was ministering to both Jews and Gentiles, it is amazing to read that the ministry of care was not absent from his vocation as a preacher of the gospel. It is also interesting to note that the lives of the early apostles of Jesus Christ were not only in alignment with the teachings of Jesus Christ but were also in alignment with their own teachi...
