Open Heavens Devotional by Pastor E.A. Adeboye
Memorise: I am the LORD: that is my name: and my glory will
I not give to another, neither my praise to graven images. Isaiah 42:8
Read: 1 John 1:1-5
In the month of April, we looked at the essence of God through
the prism of colours. God is light; hence we are looking at His essence through
the colours of the rainbow, which are the same colours that result from the
dispersal of white light when passes through prism.
Blue is the colour of love. 1 John 4:8 says God is love.
Blue is also the colour of the ocean – referring to its inexhaustibility. While
introducing Himself in Genesis 17:1, God simply says He is the inexhaustible
One – The Almighty God. Some have asked me why I am not envious of others who
are so blessed, and I tell them that there is enough for all. God’s goodness in
your life shall never run out in Jesus name. Similarly, blue is the colour of
the sky which means that when God wants to promote you, there will be no limit.
Deuteronomy 33:27 says:
The eternal God is thy
refuge, and underneath are the everlasting arms: and he shall thrust out the
enemy from before thee; and shall say, Destroy them
When God lifts you up with His massive hands, there is no
stopping you and nobody can bring you down. For instance, when God picked up a
young shepherd boy at the backside of the desert and began to promote him, he
became a king, but even long after his demise, the promotion continued until he
became the father of the King of kings (Mark 10:47). Your rise this year shall
not stop. Your promotion shall outlive you. You will be reckoned with in
Heaven’s hall of fame.
Another colour of the rainbow which we see in the dispersal
of light is green. It is the colour for Go in a traffic light. It refers to the
power of progress. Green is the colour for growth. Green is also the colour of
promotion. Psalms 75:6-7 says promotion comes from one source – above – from
God. 1 Samuel 2:8 says God can pick a beggar from the dunghill and place the
fellow among kings. This season, the Lord will promote you to your next level.
Green is the colour of abundance (Psalms 23:1-5). It is also the colour of
fruitfulness (John 15:1-5). Green stands for power which is fully available
with God (Jeremiah 32:27). Are you lacking any of these? Cry unto the Lord
today and He will supply all your needs.
PRAYER POINT:
In my life Lord be glorified always and help me avoid the
pitfalls on my way. Father, stabilise my nation on her path to progress,
prosperity and Godly fear.
Bible in one year: Leviticus 17-19
