OPEN HEAVEN 24 MAY 2023 WEDNESDAY: SUBMIT TO GOD

OPEN HEAVEN 24 MAY 2023 MEMORIZE: Jesus saith unto them, My meat is to do the will of him that sent me and to finish his work. John 4:34

OPEN HEAVEN 24 MAY 2023 BIBLE READING MATTHEW 8:5-9

5 And when Jesus was entered into Capernaum, there came unto him a centurion, beseeching him,

6 And saying, Lord, my servant lieth at home sick of the palsy, grievously tormented.

7 And Jesus saith unto him, I will come and heal him.

8 The centurion answered and said, Lord, I am not worthy that thou shouldest come under my roof: but speak the word only, and my servant shall be healed.

9 For I am a man under authority, having soldiers under me: and I say to this man, Go, and he goeth; and to another, Come, and he cometh; and to my servant, Do this, and he doeth it.

OPEN HEAVEN 24 MAY 2023 MESSAGE

Submission is different from cooperation. Cooperation is when you work together with someone to achieve a mutually desired goal.

Submission, on the other hand, is when you want something totally different from what the other fellow wants, but because you have to submit, you do what he or she asks you to.

One who submits to God is that fellow who will do whatever God says – whether it is logical or not, convenient or not. Those who put their own wishes aside and just say, “If this is what God says, that is what I will do”.

Once the devil knows you are that submissive to God, when you begin to resist him, he will flee.

James 4:7 says: Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you. The devil knows those who are 100% submissive to God. Those who will do whatever God says even if they have to die doing it.

On the other hand, he knows those who are submissive to their bellies or their sexual drive; those who are lovers of the world, and those who are in it. It is only when your submission to God is complete that you can have the authority to revenge any disobedience (2 Corinthians 10:6).

If you want to resist the devil so that he will flee from you, then you have to be completely submissive to God. Who you submit to determines how much authority you have.

The commissioner of works submits to the governor of his state; he does not have as much authority as the minister of works who submits to the president.

In Matthew 8:9, the Centurion said, “For I am aman under authority, having soldiers under me: and I say to this man, Go, and he goeth; and to another, Come, and he cometh; and to my servant, Do this, and he doeth it’.

When you are truly submissive to God, then He gives you some of His authority so that once you speak, the devil trembles and flees. Some of those troubles the devil is causing in your life can be stopped once you submit to God.

Put aside your own desires and submit completely to God’s will.

OPEN HEAVEN 24 MAY 2023 HYMN

HYMNAL: 28 – WHAT CAN WASH AWAY MY STAIN?

1. What can wash away my stain?
Nothing but the blood of Jesus;
What can make me whole again?
Nothing but the blood of Jesus.

REFRAIN:
Oh! precious is the flow
That makes me white as snow!
No other fount I know,
Nothing but the blood of Jesus.

2. For my pardon this I see;
Nothing but the blood of Jesus;
For my cleansing this my plea:
Nothing but the blood of Jesus.

3. Nothing can for sin atone,
Nothing but the blood of Jesus:
Naught of good that I have done,
Nothing but the blood of Jesus.

4. This is all my hope and peace:
Nothing but the blood of Jesus:
This is all my righteousness
Nothing but the blood of Jesus.

OPEN HEAVEN 2 JANUARY 2019 – A CHILD OF ISSACHAR? OPEN HEAVEN 2 JANUARY 2019 MEMORISE: And we know that the Son of God is come, and hath given us an understanding, that we may know him that is true, and we are in him that is true, even in his Son Jesus Christ. This is the true God, and eternal life. 1 John 5:20 OPEN HEAVEN 2 JANUARY 2019 READ: 1 Chronicles 12:32 And of the children of Issachar, which were men that had understanding of the times, to know what Israel ought to do; the heads of them were two hundred; and all their brethren were at their commandment. As we start another year, it is pertinent for us to have an understanding of the times we live in, in order for us to succeed. The good thing about understanding is that it belongs to God (Psalm 147:5). Today’s memory verse reveals that one of the reasons why the Lord Jesus Christ came to this world is to give us understanding.
