TOPIC: THE UNLIMITED GOD V MEMORISE :  The silver is mine, and the gold is mine, saith the LORD of hosts. Haggai 2:8    READ : Psalms 50:10-15 10 For every beast of the forest is mine, and the cattle upon a thousand hills. 11 I know all the fowls of the mountains: and the wild beasts of the field are mine. 12 If I were hungry, I would not tell thee: for the world is mine, and the fulness thereof. 13 Will I eat the flesh of bulls, or drink the blood of goats? 14 Offer unto God thanksgiving; and pay thy vows unto the most High: 15 And call upon me in the day of trouble: I will deliver thee, and thou shalt glorify me. MESSAGE Over the past few days, I have discussed how God cannot be hindered by opposition, circumstances, or time. I will continue this series today by discussing how He rules in the affairs of men and cannot be hindered by resources.

OPEN HEAVENS DAILY DEVOTIONAL: THE SOVEREIGN GOD. Friday January 13 2015

-

Memorise :

But our God is in the heavens: he hath done whatsoever he hath pleased. Psalm 115:3

Read : 1 Samuel 2:27-30

27 And there came a man of God unto Eli, and said unto him, Thus saith the LORD, Did I plainly appear unto the house of thy father, when they were in Egypt in Pharaoh's house?

28 And did I choose him out of all the tribes of Israel to be my priest, to offer upon mine altar, to burn incense, to wear an ephod before me? and did I give unto the house of thy father all the offerings made by fire of the children of Israel?

29 Wherefore kick ye at my sacrifice and at mine offering, which I have commanded in my habitation; and honourest thy sons above me, to make yourselves fat with the chiefest of all the offerings of Israel my people?

30 Wherefore the LORD God of Israel saith, I said indeed that thy house, and the house of thy father, should walk before me for ever: but now the LORD saith, Be it far from me; for them that honour me I will honour, and they that despise me shall be lightly esteemed.

BIBLE IN ONE YEAR : JEREMIAH 48:1-49:22, ACTS 25:13-27

Message

God is sovereign! He possesses ultimate power and exercises supreme authority over an unlimited territory. Psalm 135:6 explains that God is able to do as He pleases in heaven and on earth: Luke 1:37 says that with God, nothing shall be impossible, and Daniel 4:35 says that He is unquestionable: no one can restrain Him.

It is very important to realise that God cannot be successfully opposed ( Job 9:12, Isaiah 43:13). He is the Lord of heaven and earth. 1 Timothy 6:15 calls Him the only Potentate, the King of kings and the Lord of lords. He reigns supreme and His Kingdom is forever ( Psalm 29:10). God's Sovereignty extends over all things. He is sovereign over creation because He Created all things for His own pleasure ( Revelation 4:11). He is sovereign over human life and over even the minutest details of life - for example, He said the very hairs our head are all numbered ( Mathew 10:30). He is sovereign over world history and governments. In Proverbs 21:1, He said the Kings heart is in His Hands. Daniel 4:17 affirms that the most High rules in the kingdom of men, and He gives it to whomsoever He pleases.

The Sovereign God is completely in control of the life and salvation of His chosen people, as well as everything concerning believers . As a matter of fact, because satan and his demons are part of the created order, they are also subject to authority of the Most High God. Consequently, God is sovereign over satan, gods,demonics forces, principalities and powers in high places, etc. That is why Colossians 1:16 says that:

'For by him were all things created, that are in heaven, and that are in earth, visible and invisible, whether they be thrones, or dominions, or principalities, or powers: all things were created by him, and for him:'

God deserves our worship and adoration, He is worthy of all glory, honour and praises. He is greater than the greatest, yet He is full of love and mercy. All power in heaven and on earth belongs to Him. Lift Him up high. Magnify and bless His holy Name forevermore.

Action Point :

Worship the sovereign God and sing praises to His holy Name throughout the day. As you do this. His divine presence will become manifest in your life in Jesus ' Name.

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...
