Open Heavens Saturday September 5: Shine In Prosperity

Memorise: Cry yet, saying, Thus saith the LORD of hosts; My cities through prosperity shall yet be spread abroad; and the LORD shall yet comfort zion, and shall yet choose jerusalem. Zechariah 1:17. 

While it is true that the Lord expects us to shine in the areas of our character and soul-winning, He also expects us to shine in the area of prosperity. No wonder He gave us great promises on the prosperity, such as this found in the Deuteronomy 28:12:
“The  LORD shall open unto thee his good treasure, the heaven to give the rain unto thy land in his season, and to bless all the work of thine hand: and thou shalt lend unto many nations and thou shalt not borrow.”
Read: Deuteronomy 28:9-13 

Message:
Poverty is one of the repercussions of sin; hence there is so much poverty across the globe. God is not happy with the level of poverty in the world, this is why He has chosen to make his children prosper and set them as lights that will wipe out the darkness of poverty from nations {plsam 35:27}.

If you have been blessed by God but have not reached the level where you can lend to nations, it shows that you have not yet arrived at the of prosperity God is taking you to.

Because of your current lowly situation, you may find it hard to believe that God can truly increase you to this high level, but the truth about God's integrity is that if He has promised to do it, He will definitely keep his promise, provided you do your part.

Concerning where God is taking you to, you would be wise to always remember that your present situation does not matter.

God destination for you is quite different from where you are now. Your present location cannot stop God from taking you to the destination He has for you. He's a God who can relocate a beggar from dung hill to sit with prince   and nobles {1 Samuel 2:8}.

David was just a shepard boy attending to his father's little flock, but when God decide to move him into greatness, his humble circumstance did did not stop God.

The young shepard boy become king according to God's promise {2 Samuel 7:8}. God did the same for Joseph. Joseph had a dream, but he also had very determined dream-killer as brothers.

They sold him into slavery, and a point he was a prisoner. In spite of all these, he rose from prison to become prime minister of Egypt {psalm 105:17-22}. You too are destined to be great! Your present challenges or limitations cannot stop you from becoming what God has ordained you to be. You shall be great! Nothing will stop you. No one can stop you. It is well with your tomorrow.

Prayer Point:
Father, make a statement on prosperity to the world with my life and family...Amen

A Partaker Of Other People's Sins? - Pastor E.A Adeboye

Open Heavens Daily Devotional Friday July 15th 2016 Memory Verse: Lay hands suddenly on no man, neither be partaker of other men’s sins: keep thyself pure. - 1 Timothy 5:22 Bible Reading: 2 Chronicles 18:28-34 28. So the king of Israel and Jehoshaphat the king of Judah went up to Ramoth-gilead.  29. And the king of Israel said unto Jehoshaphat, I will disguise myself, and will go to the battle; but put thou on thy robes. So the king of Israel disguised himself; and they went to the battle.  30. Now the king of Syria had commanded the captains of the chariots that were with him, saying, Fight ye not with small or great, save only with the king of Israel.  31. And it came to pass, when the captains of the chariots saw Jehoshaphat, that they said, It is the king of Israel. Therefore they compassed about him to fight: but Jehoshaphat cried out, and the Lord helped him; and God moved them to depart from him.  32.For it came to pass, that, whe...

THEME: You Can Create Whatever You Desire John 16:21-27 The instrument with which you exercise dominion over creation is your mouth.You can create whatsoever you desire by speaking that thing into existence.Whatever you say begins to exist in the spiritual form.Jesus said in John 6:63,"The words that I speak unto you,they are spirit,and they are life". In like manner,you create whatever you say and the things begin to exist in the spiritual form.What you create through words also have life and they continue to live until they find physical expression.  This is exactly what happens when you pray.The things you declare in prayer come alive and begin to exist in their spiritual form.They remain in that spiritual form until they are converted to their tangible equivalent through work. Jesus said,"until now you have asked nothing in My name.Ask,and you will receive,that your joy may be full" (John 16:24). Don't make the mistake of relaxing after you have pray...

You Must Forgive Yourself Hebrews 12:1-11 You have heard quite a lot about forgiving those that have offended you – and that you must do. It happens often that the person you must really forgive is yourself. You may have committed an offence or a sin and your conscience has condemned you, just as the Holy Spirit has chastised you. You may also have repented of this sin, confessed it to God and resolved not to go back that way. But you discover that the heaviness, clouded vision, and the erosion of confidence occasioned by the sin you committed continue to weigh you down. At such moments, you need to make another type of confession to God in order to regain your liberty from the weight that holds you down. You have to confess your unbelief in His word that says, “If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness” (1 John 1:9). When you have genuinely repented of a sin and confessed it to God; and you have pleaded ...
