OPEN HEAVEN 26 DECEMBER 2020 SATURDAY

OPEN HEAVEN 26 DECEMBER 2020 MEMORIZE: Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you. James 4:7
OPEN HEAVEN 26 DECEMBER 2020 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 26 DECEMBER 2020 MESSAGE
Submission goes hand in hand with victory. James 4:7 says that you should submit yourself first to God, then you can resist the devil and he will flee.
In other words, if you have not submitted yourself to God, you cannot have victory over the devil.
Many of us don’t want to submit to God, yet we want to cast out demons.
Malachi 3:10 says we should bring all the tithes into His storehouse; we do not want to obey that, but we want God to open the windows of Heaven and just bring the breakthroughs.
This will not happen because if you have not submitted to God’s conditions, you cannot get anything from Him.
The people in the military understand this concept very well.
They know that as long as they remain submissive to their superiors, they will continue to enjoy authority over their subordinates.
That is what the centurion was talking about in Matthew 8:9 when He told Jesus:
“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.”
Is there any area of your life in which you have been praying and trusting God for a miracle?.
You may need to check your level of submission to God. Once you are completely submissive to Him, victory is sure.
Saul experienced defeats and died a shameful death because he felt too big to submit to God.
David on the other hand was a great king, winning many victories because he was submissive to God.
He said in Psalm 40:8:
“I delight to do thy will, O my God: yea, thy law is within my heart.”
Wives, remember that the way to get what you want from your husband is through submission, not arguments and fights.
I am yet to meet a man who can resist a submissive wife.
When he says something that you do not agree with, don’t go straight into argument mode; go first into submission mode.
You can then suggest an alternative. This way, he will hear you out.
Now, if he does not go with your idea, you must agree with him and do as he has said, but at least you know that he considered your idea.
And now, having established in his mind your submissiveness, it is easier to get anything from him than when he considers you stubborn.
OPEN HEAVEN 26 DECEMBER 2020 KEY POINT
The lower you stoop, the higher you will rise.
OPEN HEAVEN 26 DECEMBER 2020 HYMN
TAKE MY LIFE , AND LET IT BE
1. Take my life and let it be
Consecrated, Lord, to Thee;
Take my moments and my days,
Let them flow in ceaseless praise.
2. Take my hands and let them move
At the impulse of Thy love;
Take my feet and let them be
Swift and beautiful for Thee.
3. Take my voice and let me sing
Always, only for my King;
Take my lips and let them be
Filled with messages from Thee.
4. Take my silver and my gold
Not a mite would I withhold;
Take my intellect and use
Every power as Thou shalt choose.
5. Take my will and make it
Thine It shall be no longer mine;
Take my heart, it is Thine own
It shall be Thy royal throne.
6. Take my love, my Lord, I pour
At Thy feet its treasure store.
Take myself and I will be
Ever, only, all for Thee.

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...
