Open Heavens 2014: Friday July 4, daily devotion – FEAR DISALLOWED



Topic: FEAR DISALLOWED

Memorise:
For thou art the glory of their strength: and in thy favour our horn shall be exalted. Psalm 89:17

Bible in a Year:
Numbers 22:22-24:25;

Read: Psalm 89:15-18
15 Blessed is the people that know the joyful sound: they shall walk, O LORD, in the light of thy countenance.
16 In thy name shall they rejoice all the day: and in thy righteousness shall they be exalted.
17 For thou art the glory of their strength: and in thy favour our horn shall be exalted.
18 For the LORD is our defence; and the Holy One of Israel is our king.
Message:

The first time you are confronted with a golden opportunity that will catapult you into greatness, you may think that your end has finally come. This season, giant opportunities will come to you. They will be so big that you will not miss them, but know this: they may camouflage as problems. Don’t be scared but rather rejoice that your change has come at last. Remember that after David was anointed king in his father’s house, Goliath showed up to take his crown. From this, learn that certain problems that come your way after a definite prophetic word from God on your promotion, success, victory or breakthrough are out to legitimise your blessing and usher you into it. Even if people were in doubt about how Young David could ever qualify to be so honoured, by the time he killed Goliath, all their doubts were dissipated. His brothers and others who were challenging God’s decision acknowledged that even though he was younger, he was outstanding, since he could accomplish what they could not.

Are you a child of destiny? If you are, show it by not being scared of problems. Welcome problems that come your way and see the advantage they will fetch you when you are used of God to solve them. Take it up to the Lord and invite Him to take on that problem, and you will receive victory. A child of destiny does not run away from challenges; in fact, the greater the challenge, the bigger his or her joy is because the end result will bring greatness. You want to see the miraculous operate in your life, yet you shy away from evangelism; how then would God use you? Why are you hiding from the hot spots of the battlefield? Do you think God cannot protect His own? If not from God, where else can you get true protection? The fellow who is secured is the one that God is protecting. Why are you afraid for your life? Who can touch you when God does not approve of it? Arise today! Confront all your giants and cause them to face your God while you step right behind God to receive the victory!

Key Point:

The greatest hindrance into your destiny is fear; it is an enemy at the door of opportunity.

ARE YOU A CARROT, EGG OR COFFEE BEAN?

A young woman told her mother how hard her life was. She didn't know how she was going to make it and wanted to give up. She was tired of fighting and struggling. It seemed that as she solved a problem, another one arose. Her mother took her to the kitchen. She filled three pots with water. In the first pot, she placed carrots. In the second pot, she placed eggs. In the last pot, she put coffee beans. She let them sit and boil without saying a word.  After about 20 minutes, she turned off the burners. She fished the carrots out, and placed them in a bowl. She pulled the eggs out, and placed them in a bowl. Then she ladled the coffee out and place it in a bowl. Turning to her daughter she asked '' What do you see? ''.'' Carrots, eggs and coffee '' the daughter replied. The mother brought her closer and asked her to feel the carrot...

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-LOVE & SPIRITUAL GIFTS [Friday May 23, 2014]

  LOVE & SPIRITUAL GIFTS [Friday May 23, 2014] Memorise: Follow after charity, and desire spiritual gifts, but rather that ye may prophesy.   1 Corinthians 14:1 Bible in a Year: Genesis 48-50; Psalm 108 Read:   1 Corinthians 12:1-2 1  Now concerning spiritual gifts, brethren, I would not have you ignorant. 2  Ye know that ye were Gentiles, carried away unto these dumb idols, even as ye were led. Message: Our God is the Almighty. He is the King of kings and the Lord of lords. He is also good and His mercy endures forever. One character of God that is transmissible through us is love. How do we show that we know God? It is by showing His love ( 1 John 4:8 ). Let us love one another. Let’s demonstrate the love of God to our brethren. Let’s show them that we care. The people we are to show love to includes those that are lovable and those that do not deserve our love. Do you love your critics? Do you love your persecutors? Do you love the un...
