OPEN HEAVEN 3 OCTOBER 2025 FRIDAY: TWO KINDS OF WONDERS

OPEN HEAVEN 3 OCTOBER 2025 MEMORISE: To him who alone doeth great wonders: for his mercy endureth for ever. Psalms 136:4

OPEN HEAVEN 3 OCTOBER 2025 READ: Exodus 12:21-30:

21 Then Moses called for all the elders of Israel, and said unto them, Draw out and take you a lamb according to your families, and kill the passover.

22 And ye shall take a bunch of hyssop, and dip it in the blood that is in the bason, and strike the lintel and the two side posts with the blood that is in the bason; and none of you shall go out at the door of his house until the morning.

23 For the LORD will pass through to smite the Egyptians; and when he seeth the blood upon the lintel, and on the two side posts, the LORD will pass over the door, and will not suffer the destroyer to come in unto your houses to smite you.

24 And ye shall observe this thing for an ordinance to thee and to thy sons for ever.
25 And it shall come to pass, when ye be come to the land which the LORD will give you, according as he hath promised, that ye shall keep this service.

26 And it shall come to pass, when your children shall say unto you, What mean ye by this service?

 27 That ye shall say, It isthe sacrifice of the LORD’s passover, who passed over the houses of the children of Israel in Egypt, when he smote the Egyptians, and delivered our houses. And the people bowed the head and worshipped.

28 And the children of Israel went away, and did as the LORD had commanded Moses and Aaron, so did they.

29And it came to pass, that at midnight the LORD smote all the firstborn in the land of Egypt, from the firstborn of Pharaoh that sat on his throne unto the firstborn of the captive that was in the dungeon; and all the firstborn of cattle.

30 And Pharaoh rose up in the night, he, and all his servants, and all the Egyptians; and there was a great cry in Egypt; for there was not a house where there was not one dead.

OPEN HEAVEN 3 OCTOBER 2025 MESSAGE

There are two kinds of wonders – the good and the bad. In 2 Kings 5:1-27, there was a man called Naaman, who was the captain of the host of the king of Syria.

He was a leper, and Elisha asked him to go and wash in River Jordan so he could be healed.

When he did, his skin became like that of a newborn baby – this is an example of a good wonder.

After this, Gehazi, the servant of the man of God, ran after Naaman and fraudulently collected the gifts Elisha rejected.

When Elisha discovered this, he cursed Gehazi saying, “I command that the leprosy of Naaman will cleave to you.” Immediately, Gehazi was covered with leprosy and became as white as snow – now, this is an example of a bad wonder.

When God manifests Himself, He performs good wonders in the lives of His children. He is gentle to His children, but He is also a consuming fire to those who refuse His Lordship.

In today’s Bible reading, the children of Israel enjoyed the good wonder of preservation and escape from the angel of death.

However, at the same time, the Egyptians experienced God’s judgement.

At the Red Sea, while the Israelites saw the mighty wonder of God as the sea parted for them to walk through it, the Egyptians were drowned by that same sea (Exodus 14:21-28).

God is a God of wonders, but the type of wonders a fellow will experience from Him will depend on whether he or she is for Him or against Him.

Beloved, are you on the Lord’s side (Exodus 32:26) or in the devil’s camp? It is not only unbelievers who are not on the Lord’s side; carnal Christians are also not on His side.

Paul said in Romans 8:7 that the carnal mind is enmity against God because it is not subject to God’s law and can never be.

A carnal Christian wants to do things his or her way but not in God’s way. Such Christians are moved by what they see and not by God’s word.

Anyone who lives like them will not enjoy God’s good wonder.

If you are not yet born again and you want God to make your life an example of a good wonder to others, come to His side today and surrender all to Jesus.

If you are already God’s child, refuse to be a carnal Christian and totally surrender your mind to be constantly renewed by His word.

Check your life; are you preparing to experience God’s good or bad wonder?

OPEN HEAVEN 3 OCTOBER 2025 HYMN 10:

IN CHRIST ALONE

1. In Christ alone my hope is found
He is my light, my strength, my song
This cornerstone, this solid ground
Firm through the fiercest drought and storm.
CHORUS
What heights of love
What depths of peace
When fears are stilled
When strivings cease
2. My comforter, my all in all
Here in the love of Christ I stand
In Christ alone, Who took on flesh
Fullness of God in helpless babe
3. This gift of love and righteousness
Scorned by the ones He came to save
Till on that cross as Jesus died
The wrath of God was satisfied
4. For every sin on Him was laid
Here in the death of Christ I live
There in the ground His body lay
Light of the world by darkness slain
5. Then bursting forth in glorious day
Up from the grave He rose again
And as He stands in victory
Sins curse has lost its grip on me
For I am His and He is mine
6. Bought with the precious blood of Christ
No guilt in life, no fear in death
This is the power of Christ in me
From life’s first cry to final breath
Jesus commands my destiny
7. No power of hell, no scheme of man
Can ever pluck me from His hand
Till He returns or calls me home
Here in the power of Christ I will stand
In Christ Alone
