OPEN HEAVEN 30 APRIL 2025 WEDNESDAY: GOD HATES DISUNITY
OPEN HEAVEN 30 APRIL 2025 MEMORISE: “And Jesus knew their thoughts, and said unto them, Every kingdom divided against itself is brought to desolation; and every city or house divided against itself shall not stand.” (Matthew 12:25)
OPEN HEAVEN 30 APRIL 2025 READ: Psalm 133:1-3 (KJV)
1 Behold, how good and how pleasant it is for brethren to dwell together in unity!
2 It is like the precious ointment upon the head, that ran down upon the beard, even Aaron’s beard: that went down to the skirts of his garments;
3 As the dew of Hermon, and as the dew that descended upon the mountains of Zion: for there the LORD commanded the blessing, even life for evermore.
OPEN HEAVEN 30 APRIL 2025 MESSAGE:
Several Scriptures clearly tell us that God hates disunity, and He loves it when His children are united.
He said in John 13:35 that it is by showing love to one another that people will recognise us as His disciples.
God is so particular about unity that He said that if you come to Him with an offering and remember that your brother has something against you, you must go and reconcile with him before returning to give your offering (Matthew 5:23-24).
God wants His children to be united because He knows that there is little we can achieve individually.
He knows that the moment we begin to operate as separate entities, it will be easy for the devil to gain entry into our territories, and we will not be able to do much to stop him.
Ecclesiastes 4:12 says: And if one prevail against him, two shall withstand him; and a threefold cord is not quickly broken.
There are many Christians and Christian organisations around the world. In fact, Christianity is considered to be the most popular religion in the world.
Why, then, are the governments of some nations establishing anti-Christian policies and persecuting Christians?
The major reason is that many of us Christians are living in isolation. If we come together and decree a thing, it will surely come to pass.
If we can come together and decide to turn the whole world around for Christ, we will be unstoppable.
When you look at all the times that there have been revivals in the past, one major thing you will discover is that a significant part of the body of Christ was united.
At the upper room, when the disciples were all in one accord, the Holy Ghost came down, and three thousand souls were saved on that day.
The Bible further says in Acts 2:46-47 that the disciples were united and more and more people were added to the church daily.
Look within your local assembly; is there unity among you?
Look at the environment where your church is located; is your local assembly working in unity with the other churches in the community?
If we can only put aside our differences and come together to form a united front against the devil, we will discover that nothing will be impossible to us.
Pray for the unity of all the churches in your community and the body of Christ as a whole.
OPEN HEAVEN 30 APRIL 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 every heard Him speak.
2 I want to be like Jesus,
So frequently in prayer;
Alone upon the mountain-top,
He met His Father there.
3 I want to be like Jesus,
I never, never find
That He, though persecuted, was
To any one unkind.
4 I want to be like Jesus,
Engaged in doing good,
So that of me it may be said,
`She hath done what she could.`
5 I want to be like Jesus,
Who sweetly said to all,
`Let little children come to Me:`
I would obey the call.
6 But oh, I’m not like Jesus,
As any one may see;
Then, gentle Saviour, send Thy Grace,
And make me like to Thee.
