TOPIC: SHIELD OTHER CHILDREN MEMORISE : Let the sighing of the prisoner come before thee; according to the greatness of thy power preserve thou those that are appointed to die; Psalm 79:11 READ : Acts 12:1-19 1 Now about that time Herod the king stretched forth his hands to vex certain of the church. 2 And he killed James the brother of John with the sword. 3 And because he saw it pleased the Jews, he proceeded further to take Peter also. (Then were the days of unleavened bread.) 4 And when he had apprehended him, he put him in prison, and delivered him to four quaternions of soldiers to keep him; intending after Easter to bring him forth to the people. 5 Peter therefore was kept in prison: but prayer was made without ceasing of the church unto God for him. 6 And when Herod would have brought him forth, the same night Peter was sleeping between two soldiers, bound with two chains: and the keepers before the door kept the prison. 7 And, behold, the angel of the Lord came upon him, and a...

HEAVENLY ROYALTY Friday 23 March 2012

-
Open Heavens Devotional by Pastor E.A. Adeboye
Memorise: And hath made us kings and priests unto God and his Father; to him be glory and dominion for ever and ever. Amen. Revelation 1:6
Read: Revelation 1:5-6
God loves little children so much because they are His heritage. While the Lord was on the earth, smart parents knew this so they brought their children to Him for His divine touch (Luke 18:15). Unfortunately, His disciples were so ignorant that they turned such parents away until the Lord Jesus corrected them. Have your children received a divine touch? Have you brought them to Him and dedicated them to the one who owns and gave them to you?
At the point of entry into this world, all children are born equal – hungry, in need of cleaning, undeveloped and naked. Job stressed this when he said:
… Naked came I out of my mother’s womb, and naked shall I return thither… Job 1:21
Nobody came dressed up at the point of entry, but within minutes of delivery, levels begin to change based on the background and family the child is born into. The child of the president will look different from the child of a messenger because of their parental heritage. In most cultures, it is the status of the father of a child that determines the type of change that is effected in the baby’s life from the very first minute after birth. The type of care each baby receives will differ according to who the father is. If you are born into a royal family, you receive a title immediately after birth. You will be a prince or princess depending on your sex. But if you are born into the house of a cleaner, or domestic help, you will only be called a baby. As it is in the physical so it is in the spiritual. The moment you are born again, you are treated with royalty because Psalm 91:1 calls your Father the Most High, The Almighty. This is why His children cannot but go high. Deuteronomy 28:13 says you will be head and not tail because your father is the Most High. Revelation 19:16 calls Him the King of kings which is why at birth, you assume heavenly royalty not as a prince but as a king (Revelation 1:5-6). According to Malachi 3:6, your Father is the unchangeable Lord. His Kingdom is everlasting hence as His child, you will enjoy royalty forever. Are you living up to your status as a king of the Most High?
KEY POINT:
If you are a prince on earth, it’s only for a life time. If you are a divine king, it is for eternity.
Bible in one year: Numbers 28:30

TOPIC: THE SNARE OF THE FOWLER 4 MEMORISE:  All things are lawful unto me, but all things are not expedient: all things are lawful for me, but I will not be brought under the power of any. 1 Corinthians 6:12 READ: Bible Reading Romans 6:1-23 1 What shall we say then? Shall we continue in sin, that grace may abound? 2 God forbid. How shall we, that are dead to sin, live any longer therein? 3 Know ye not, that so many of us as were baptized into Jesus Christ were baptized into his death? 4 Therefore we are buried with him by baptism into death: that like as Christ was raised up from the dead by the glory of the Father, even so we also should walk in newness of life. 5 For if we have been planted together in the likeness of his death, we shall be also in the likeness of his resurrection: 6 Knowing this, that our old man is crucified with him, that the body of sin might be destroyed, that henceforth we should not serve sin. 7 For he that is dead is freed from sin. 8 Now if we be dead w...

TOPIC : OVERFLOWING MERCY MEMORISE : “But God, who is rich in mercy, for his great love wherewith he loved us, Even when we were dead in sins, hath quickened us together with Christ, (by grace ye are saved;).” - (Ephesians 2:4-5) READ : MARK 1:40-45 (KJV) 40 And there came a leper to him, beseeching him, and kneeling down to him, and saying unto him, If thou wilt, thou canst make me clean. 41 And Jesus, moved with compassion, put forth his hand, and touched him, and saith unto him, I will; be thou clean. 42 And as soon as he had spoken, immediately the leprosy departed from him, and he was cleansed. 43 And he straitly charged him, and forthwith sent him away; 45 And saith unto him, See thou say nothing to any man: but go thy way, shew thyself to the priest, and offer for thy cleansing those things which Moses commanded, for a testimony unto them. 45 But he went out, and began to publish it much, and to blaze abroad the matter, insomuch that Jesus could no more openly enter into the cit...

TOPIC: AN EXCELLENT SPIRIT  MEMORIZE   Then this Daniel was preferred above the presidents and princes, because an excellent spirit was in him; and the king thought to set him over the whole realm. Daniel 6:3 READ :  Romans 12:10-21 [10]Be kindly affectioned one to another with brotherly love; in honour preferring one another; [11]Not slothful in business; fervent in spirit; serving the Lord; [12]Rejoicing in hope; patient in tribulation; continuing instant in prayer; [13]Distributing to the necessity of saints; given to hospitality  [14]Bless them which persecute you: bless, and curse not. [15]Rejoice with them that do rejoice, and weep with them that weep. [16]Be of the same mind one toward another. Mind not high things, but condescend to men of low estate. Be not wise in your own conceits. [17]Recompense to no man evil for evil. Provide things honest in the sight of all men. [18]If it be possible, as much as lieth in you, live peaceably with all men. [19]Dearly be...
