OPEN HEAVEN 21 DECEMBER 2020 MONDAY: TRUE WORSHIP

OPEN HEAVEN 21 DECEMBER 2020 MEMORIZE: Wherefore the Lord said, Forasmuch as this people draw near me with their mouth, and with their lips do honour me, but have removed their heart far from me, and their fear toward me is taught by the precept of men. Isaiah 29:13
OPEN HEAVEN 21 DECEMBER 2020 BIBLE READING 1 CHRONICLES 16:23-31
23. Sing unto the LORD, all the earth; show forth from day to day his salvation.
24. Declare his glory among the heathen; his marvelous works among all nations.
25. For great is the LORD, and greatly to be praised; he also is to be feared above all gods.
26. For all the gods of the people are idols; but the LORD made the heavens.
27. Glory and honor are in his presence; strength and gladness are in his place.
28. Give unto the LORD, ye kindred of the people, give unto the LORD glory and strength.
29. Give unto the LORD the glory due unto his name; bring an offering, and come before him; worship the LORD in the beauty of holiness.
30. Fear before him, all the earth; the world also shall be stable, that it be not moved.
31. Let the heavens be glad, and let the earth rejoice; and let men say among the nations, The LORD reigneth.

OPEN HEAVEN 21 DECEMBER 2020 MESSAGE
Worship – true worship is in the absolute submission of the heart to the One being worshipped and adored.
You can pretend to be in awe of any human being and they would be deceived, but God searches the intentions of our heart, and that is why He knows those who truly worship Him. John 4:24 says: 
“God is a Spirit: and they that worship him must worship him in spirit and in truth.”
Search your heart: are you a true worshipper?.
If you claim to be a worshipper and you still commit sin, you need to check your claim again.
A true worshipper of God does not take with levity anything that concerns Him.
David is a very good example of a true worshipper.
He wrote many psalms praising God and talking about how much He loved God’s statutes.
His lifestyle and how he revered God showed that he truly esteemed Him greatly.
He had a burden to build a temple for God and even though He told him not to, David didn’t just fold his hands; he provided all that would be needed to build it. 
That is clearly not eye service. David was a man after God’s own heart, because he practiced heartfelt worship.
If you’re not as committed to your tasks in Church when your Pastor is not around as you are when he is, you are not a true worshipper.
If you worship God because you are expecting something in return, you are not amongst the true worshippers.
God rejects heartless worship (Amos 5:21-24).
Two people can come with similar offerings to Him and He will reject one and accept the other just like in the case of Cain and Abel (Genesis 4:1-15).
Are you a true worshipper?
OPEN HEAVEN 21 DECEMBER 2020 KEY POINT
Worship is a thing of the heart; actions merely express it.

SUNDAY, 15TH SEPTEMBER. LET THE WORD CONTROL YOUR VALUES

RHAPSODY OF REALITIES SUNDAY, 15TH SEPTEMBER. LET THE WORD CONTROL YOUR VALUES For to be carnally minded is death; but to be spiritually minded is life and peace (Romans 8:6). When the Bible talks about the carnal mind, it doesn’t mean a sinful mind per se, even though the carnal mind is prone to sin. A carnal mind means a mind that’s ordinary; of mere human understanding; just normal human life The person who’s carnally-minded, even though he’s born again, reasons and acts like the natural man. He lives according to the senses. He’s more attuned to, and concerned about the things of the flesh. The Word and the spiritual realities of the Kingdom hardly get his attention. Now, the Bible tells us that to live that way is enmity against God (Romans 8:7); meaning that the carnal Christian walks at cross-purposes with God. He’s not ruled by or subject to the Word of God; a state that leads to death—separation from everything gracious and divine!...

WEDNESDAY 26TH JUNE 2019 THEME: THE DANGER OF FRUITLESSNESS.

OPEN HEAVENS DAILY DEVOTIONAL DATE: WEDNESDAY 26TH JUNE 2019 THEME: THE DANGER OF FRUITLESSNESS. MEMORISE: Every branch in me that beareth not fruit he taketh away: and every branch that beareth fruit, he purgeth it, that it may bring forth more fruit. John 15:2 READ: Luke 13:6-9 6 He spake also this parable; A certain man had a fig tree planted in his vineyard; and he came and sought fruit thereon, and found none. 7 Then said he unto the dresser of his vineyard, Behold, these three years I come seeking fruit on this fig tree, and find none: cut it down; why cumbereth it the ground? 8 And he answering said unto him, Lord, let it alone this year also, till I shall dig about it, and dung it: 9 And if it bear fruit, well: and if not, then after that thou shalt cut it down. MESSAGE “Be fruitful” is the very first statement God made to mankind. This statement was pronounced both as a blessing and command. It is therefore obvious that fruitfulness is the heartbeat...
