OPEN HEAVEN 21 MARCH 2025 FRIDAY: THE SEED OF GOD
OPEN HEAVEN 21 MARCH 2025 MEMORISE: “Being born again, not of corruptible seed, but of incorruptible, by the word of God, which liveth and abideth for ever.” (1 Peter 1:23)
OPEN HEAVEN 21 MARCH 2025 READ: 1 JOHN 3:7-9 (KJV)
7 Little children, let no man deceive you: he that doeth righteousness is righteous, even as he is righteous.
8 He that committeth sin is of the devil; for the devil sinneth from the beginning. For this purpose the Son of God was manifested, that he might destroy the works of the devil.
9 Whosoever is born of God doth not commit sin; for his seed remaineth in him: and he cannot sin, because he is born of God.
OPEN HEAVEN 21 MARCH 2025 MESSAGE:
When God’s seed is in you, sin becomes irritating to you. No matter how hungry a cat is, it will not eat faeces.
Today’s Bible reading says that if you are born of God, you cannot sin because God’s seed is in you.
As God’s child, no matter the temptation you face, His seed in you will help you overcome it.
People who claim to be born again and are still enjoying sin are not truly saved.
Sin separates people from God and makes them satan’s lawful captives (2 Timothy 2:26).
If you are living in sin, you should cry to God for His salvation that takes away the seed of sin and replaces it with His seed.
God translates believers from the kingdom of darkness into the Kingdom of His light (Colossians 1:13) and gives them a new identity and DNA.
Just as a mango seed can never produce an apple, Christians don’t have the capacity to produce sin because God’s seed is in them.
However, if a believer refuses to nurture and grow this seed, he or she will be overpowered by sin.
Abiding in God’s word is one way to allow the seed of God within you to bloom and cause you to bear the fruits of righteousness.
Today’s memory verse says that you have been born again of incorruptible seed – the word of God, which lives and abides forever.
His word is sharper than any two-edged sword and can discern the intents of our hearts long before they become actions (Hebrews 4:12).
Christians who allow God’s word to dwell richly in them (Colossians 3:16) will stand strong against temptations and sin.
Sin is an operation of darkness, but God’s word brings light and understanding (Psalm 119:130).
Knowing God’s word will make you wise and alert; you will be able to foresee the dangers in certain situations and hide yourself (Proverbs 22:3).
Joseph discerned the evil in Potiphar’s wife’s request and ran away (Genesis 39:12).
Samson, on the other hand, couldn’t discern the evil in Delilah’s request until it was too late (Judges 16:1-21).
If you want to be a great instrument in God’s hands, you must take God’s word seriously.
Anything that keeps you from God’s word wants to destroy your soul.
God’s seed in you will be preserved from the corruption of sin when you make His word your topmost priority.
Don’t allow yourself to become Satan’s lawful captive.
Is God’s word your meditation all day long? (Psalm 119:97).
OPEN HEAVEN 21 MARCH 2025 HYMN 24 –
I WANT TO BE LIKE JESUS
1 I want to be like Jesus,
So lowly and so meek;
For no one marked an angry word
That ever heard him speak.
Refrain:
I want to be like Jesus,
God’s well beloved Son;
I want to be like Jesus,
The pure and holy One.
2 I want to be like Jesus,
So frequently in prayer;
Alone upon the mountain top,
He met his Father there. [Refrain]
3 I want to be like Jesus,
Engaged in doing good,
So that of me it may be said,
He hath done what he could. [Refrain]
4 Alas! I’m not like Jesus,
As any one may see;
Thy gentle Spirit, Savior, send,
And make me like to thee. [Refrain]
