28. Hast thou not known? hast thou not heard, that the everlasting God, the LORD, the Creator of the ends of the earth, fainteth not, neither is weary? there is no searching of his understanding.
29. He giveth power to the faint; and to them that have no might he increaseth strength.
30. Even the youths shall faint and be weary, and the young men shall utterly fall;
31. But they that wait upon the LORD shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; and they shall walk, and not faint.

OPEN HEAVEN 14 APRIL 2021 MESSAGE
Choosing to be in God’s presence is a thing of wisdom because it guarantees joy and everlasting satisfaction (Psalm 16:11).
Therefore, if you are wise, you will always seek to be in His presence No wonder the Psalmist wrote in Psalm 91:1:
He that dwelleth in the secret place of the most High shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty.
Only sin can drive a fellow from the presence of God. It was after the fall that Adam and Eve had to run from God’s presence (Genesis 3:8).
Jonah also ran from God’s presence and ended up in the belly of the fish simply because of disobedience (Jonah 1:3,15,17).
When a man runs from the presence of the Lord, he is heading for destruction.
Our Scripture reading for today contains many miracles that happened in the presence of the Lord.
When you dwell in God’s presence, you will never be tired because His attributes rub off on you (Isaiah 40:28-29).
God is never tired and He is ready to share His strength with those who come into His presence.
Elijah and Elisha knew this secret and thus experienced miracles in His presence.
In God’s presence, Elijah enjoyed a divinely prepared meal and he became so strong and swift that not only did he overpower four hundred and fifty prophets of Baal on Mount Carmel, he also outran the chariot of King Ahab, according to (1 Kings 18).
Being in God’s presence also brings divine boldness. Elijah displayed this in (1 Kings 18:15).
As children of God, you must constantly be in God’s presence.
Even our Lord Jesus Christ did so. He never compromised the presence of the Father for other activities.
Matthew 14:23 and Luke 6:12 detail how Jesus constantly withdrew to the mountain side to commune with His Father.
The early Church also cherished God’s presence in prayer and whenever they gathered, there were always earth-shaking incidents (Acts 2:46).
The early disciples were with Jesus for just three and a half years, yet the world knew they had been with Him (Acts 4:13).
The more you stay in God’s presence, the more you look and behave like Him (2 Corinthians 3:18).

HYMN 11 – I NEED THEE EVERY HOUR
1. I need Thee every hour,
Most gracious Lord;
No tender voice like Thine
Can peace afford.
REFRAIN:
I need Thee, Oh, I need Thee;
Every hour I need Thee!
Oh, bless me now, my Saviour,
I come to Thee.
2. I need Thee every hour,
Stay Thou near by;
Temptations lose their power
When Thou art nigh.
3. I need Thee every hour,
In joy or pain;
Come quickly, and abide
Or life is vain.

Teach me Thy will;
And Thy rich promises
In me fulfill.
