Genesis 1:3   READ : Acts 3:1-8 1 Now Peter and John went up together into the temple at the hour of prayer, being the ninth hour. 2 And a certain man lame from his mother's womb was carried, whom they laid daily at the gate of the temple which is called Beautiful, to ask alms of them that entered into the temple; 3 Who seeing Peter and John about to go into the temple asked an alms. 4 And Peter, fastening his eyes upon him with John, said, Look on us. 5 And he gave heed unto them, expecting to receive something of them. 6 Then Peter said, Silver and gold have I none; but such as I have give I thee: In the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth rise up and walk. 7 And he took him by the right hand, and lifted him up: and immediately his feet and ancle bones received strength. 8 And he leaping up stood, and walked, and entered with them into the temple, walking, and leaping, and pra...

THE ESSENCE OF GOD (Part 1) Thursday 5 April 2012

-
Open Heavens Devotional by Pastor E.A. Adeboye
Memorise: And they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb, and by the word of their testimony: and they loved not their lives unto the death. Revelation 12:11
Read: 2 Kings 1:9-12
God is the Father of lights according to James 1:17 and Himself is said to be light in 1 John 1: 5. Light is one of the few things used in describing the essence of God in scripture. A study of white light therefore should give us tremendous insight to who God is (with white connoting the purity of God). From physics we understand that when white light is passed through a glass prism, the white will be divided into the seven colours of the rainbow. The seven colours were encapsulated in the white light and each is indicative of the essence of white light. We will take a look at the colours individually.
Red is the colours of blood. Red stands for life because the life of animals is their blood (Leviticus 17:11). Red also stands for salvation. 1 John 1:7 says the blood of Jesus cleanses from the stains of sin. Red equally stands for deliverance because Revelation 12:11 shows you can overcome by the blood of the lamb; and Exodus 12:13 says as long as the blood is there, you will escape the evil projected against you. So it is the colour of victory. Fire also is red and it stands for purification. Malachi 3:2-4 says the Lord is like a refiner’s fire and the one God will accept must first be purified. For this reason God promises to baptise His children with the Holy Ghost fire. No purification, no divine acceptance. Fire is also an agent of destruction. Have you been tied up by satanic forces but you are sure you are born again and baptized with the Holy Spirit? Those things tying you now shall be roasted in Jesus name. When they bundled and threw the Hebrew trio into Nebuchadnezzar’s burning fiery furnace in Daniel 3:22-25, it was the rope that bound them that got burnt. The fire of the Spirit is meant to destroy selectively. It burns enemies and every gadget enemies are using against God’s children. This season, every instrument, rope, cage, monitoring gadgets and weapons the enemies are using against you, your family or destiny shall be roasted by the fire of the Holy Ghost in Jesus name. In 2 kings 1:9-12, when some sets of soldiers came to arrest Elijah, he simply asked the fire of the Holy Ghost to do its work. In the name of Jesus, as you walk with the Holy Spirit, every satanic agent sent to arrest you shall be roasted.
ACTION POINT:
Father, release afresh the fire of the Holy Spirit upon every department of my life.
Bible in one year: Isaiah 37-39

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: STAND FIRM MEMORISE:  That we henceforth be no more children, tossed to and fro, and carried about with every wind of doctrine, by the sleight of men, and cunning craftiness, whereby they lie in wait to deceive: Ephesians 4:14 READ: Daniel 1:8-16  8 But Daniel purposed in his heart that he would not defile himself with the portion of the king's meat, nor with the wine which he drank: therefore he requested of the prince of the eunuchs that he might not defile himself. 9 Now God had brought Daniel into favour and tender love with the prince of the eunuchs. 10 And the prince of the eunuchs said unto Daniel, I fear my lord the king, who hath appointed your meat and your drink: for why should he see your faces worse liking than the children which are of your sort? then shall ye make me endanger my head to the king. 11 Then said Daniel to Melzar, whom the prince of the eunuchs had set over Daniel, Hananiah, Mishael, and Azariah, 12 Prove thy servants, I beseech thee, ten d...
