Open Heavens Devotional For Tuesday 7th November, 2023

Open Heavens Devotional for Tuesday 7th November. 2023

TOPIC: BEWARE OF PRIDE

MEMORIZE:
Pride goeth before destruction, and an haughty spirit before a fall. Proverbs 16:18

Read: 1 Kings 19:13-18
13 And it was so, when Elijah heard it, that he wrapped his face in his mantle, and went out, and stood in the entering in of the cave. And, behold, there came a voice unto him, and said, What doest thou here, Elijah?
14 And he said, I have been very jealous for the LORD God of hosts: because the children of Israel have forsaken thy covenant, thrown down thine altars, and slain thy prophets with the sword; and I, even I only, am left; and they seek my life, to take it away.
15 And the LORD said unto him, Go, return on thy way to the wilderness of Damascus: and when thou comest, anoint Hazael to be king over Syria:
16 And Jehu the son of Nimshi shalt thou anoint to be king over Israel: and Elisha the son of Shaphat of Abelmeholah shalt thou anoint to be prophet in thy room.
17 And it shall come to pass, that him that escapeth the sword of Hazael shall Jehu slay: and him that escapeth from the sword of Jehu shall Elisha slay.
18 Yet I have left me seven thousand in Israel, all the knees which have not bowed unto Baal, and every mouth which hath not kissed him.

MESSAGE

In our Bible reading for today, you will see that God told Elijah to anoint three people to replace him. This is because you can see pride in Elijah’s response when he says, “And I, even I only, am left…”. There is only one “I AM” and that is God Himself (Exodus 3:14). This is why, when Jesus Christ called Himself ‘I AM’ in John 8:58-59, the Jews were furious that He compared Himself to God. Of course, at that time, they did not know about John 1:1 and 14, which says Jesus is God who became flesh and dwelt amongst us. The name I AM must be reserved for God and God alone.

When you search the Scriptures, you would discover that the words ‘I’, ‘me’, ‘my’, ‘mine’ are the languages of pride. That was the language of Satan in Isaiah 14:12-15. When you find someone always saying ‘I’, ‘my’, you know you are most likely dealing with a proud fellow. Beware of this because the higher you go, the greater the risk of you saying ‘I’, ‘my’, ‘me’ all the time.

We see an example in the strong and anointed man of God called Samson. In Judges 15:14-16, where the power of God came upon him and he killed thousands of soldiers with a jaw bone, he said, “With the jawbone of an ass, heaps upon heaps, with the jaw of an ass have I slain a thousand men”. There was no, “Thank You, Lord” to the One who sent down the power; it was all about himself. Even when God had clearly restored his strength in Judges 16:25-28, when the enemies had caught him and plucked out his eyes and he wanted to pray just one more prayer before dying, what did he say?

And Samson called unto the LORD, and said, O Lord God, remember me, I pray thee, and strengthen me, I pray thee, only this once, O God, that I may be at once avenged of the Philistines for my two eyes. Judges 16:28

It was about him all the way. That is why, as strong and anointed as he was, he fell so low that he ended up blind and grinding corn for his enemies before dying with them.

Key Point:
Beware of pride because it can make you fall so low that your enemies would begin to rejoice over you.

Bible in One year:
John 13-15

HYMN:
1. Amazing grace! How sweet the sound
That saved a wretch like me!
I once was lost, but now am found;
Was blind, but now I see.

2. Through many dangers, toils and snares,
I have already come;
’Tis grace hath brought me safe thus far,
And grace will lead me home.

3. The Lord has promised good to me,
His Word my hope secures;
He will my Shield and Portion be,
As long as life endures.

4. Yea, when this flesh and heart shall fail,
And mortal life shall cease,
I shall possess, within the veil,
A life of joy and peace.

5. The earth shall soon dissolve like snow,
The sun forbear to shine;
But God, who called me here below,
Will be forever mine.

6. When we’ve been there ten thousand years,
Bright shining as the sun,
We’ve no less days to sing God’s praise
Than when we’d first begun.

Fiverr Freelancing Review

What is Fiverr?

On the online marketplace, Fiverr acts as a link between independent freelancers and clients all around the world. To take advantage of Fiverr’s enormous prospects, it is imperative for both customers and sellers to understand how the platform operates. Fiverr is a global marketplace where people and companies may list their services (sometimes known as “gigs”) in a variety of areas, such as programming, design, digital marketing, copywriting, and more. It’s an easily accessible platform where independent contractors may display their abilities and where clients can locate the best personnel for their projects.

It’s simple to get started on Fiverr. Users must register for an account, fill out the required fields, and confirm their email address. After registering, individuals can browse or create gigs after setting up their profiles.

Customers with particular needs can browse for independent contractors by keyword, talent, or category. Customers can ask for bespoke offers, read reviews, and look through the merchants’ profiles. Freelancers, or sellers, must write gig listings that are visually appealing. These ads have rates, pictures, and descriptions of the gigs. Additionally, they can provide a range of packages at varying cost and feature levels. Orders can be placed by customers choosing a seller’s gig, stating their needs, and supplying the required data. In order to make sure the initiative is successful, they can also speak with sellers.

Payment processing is handled by Fiverr, guaranteeing a safe and secure transaction for both sides. Nevertheless, Fiverr charges a price for its services, which varies based on the amount of the order. After the seller does the job, they give the client the finished product. After reviewing the completed work, the client might ask for changes if necessary. The seller receives money upon client approval. Fiverr sellers want to establish a solid reputation by delivering their work on time, communicating well, and producing high-quality work. Sellers who receive positive reviews and ratings are more likely to succeed.

Dunamis Seeds of Destiny Devotional For Monday 6th November, 2023

Dunamis Seeds of Destiny for Monday 6th November, 2023

 

Topic: Does God Think About Me?

SCRIPTURE: For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, saith the Lord, thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you an expected end. Jeremiah 29:11.

 

THOUGHT FOR THE DAY: God has a plan for every area of your life.

 

MESSAGE

Our anchor Scripture makes it clear that God has a plan for you. Before you were conceived in your mother’s womb, He had planned your life. Your journey or existence on earth was predetermined by God before you were born. God is mindful of you (Jeremiah 29:11).

Now, due to the challenges or storms of life, you may be tempted to ask, “Does God know that I exist? Does He have any plan for my life? Is He aware of what I am passing through? Does He care about me at all? Does He think about me?”
loved, God is mindful of you. He is thoughtful of you. God has a plan for every area of your life. He has a plan for your spiritual, martial, financial, academic, career and ministerial life. Knowing this will help you live a profitable and peaceful life on earth.

It is also important to understand that God’s plan for your life is not at the mercy of the plans of the devil against your life. The plans of God for your life predate the plans of the devil against your life. This means, the plan of God for your life is older than the plan of the devil against your life.

So, if the devil came to attack you, he came too late because God had a plan for your life before the devil ever thought about you. The devil cannot corrupt what God has finished about your life.

Beloved, always remember that God is always thoughtful of you. This means, the plots of the enemy against your life are inconsequential.

Remember this: God has a plan for every area of your life.

 

ASSIGNMENTS:

1. Go through today’s message again.

2. Always remember that God’s thought for your life is stronger than the thought of the devil against your life.

 

PRAYER: Thank You Lord for Your Thoughts and Plans for my life. I receive the grace to be conscious of this always, Lord, in Jesus’ Name.

 

FOR FURTHER UNDERSTANDING, GET THIS MESSAGE: DESTINY CAPSULES.

 

QUOTE: Realize our true purpose for existence, Culled from the book, “MAKING FULL PROOF OF MINISTRY” by Dr Paul Enenche.

 

DAILY READING: Acts 4-6.

 

AMAZING FACT: Every time that you remember something, you, in turn, strengthen that memory in your brain. Whenever the neural pathways of a memory are exercised, your brain makes new connections. The older and more times a memory has been remembered, the stronger that memory is.

 

PROPHETIC DECLARATION/WORD: I decree that in this season, you will begin to experience practically the thoughtfulness of God towards you in Jesus’ Name.

 

The Seeds of Destiny Devotional is a highly spiritual resource and life transforming devotional that is widely read across the world. It is written by Pastors Paul and Becky Paul Enenche, the Senior Pastors of the Dunamis International Gospel Centre (Glory Dome)

Rhapsody of Realities Devotional For Monday 6th November, 2023

Rhapsody of Realities Devotional for Monday 6th November 2023

 

TOPIC: LET’S DO MORE

…unto whomsoever much is given, of him shall be much required: and to whom men have committed much, of him they will ask the more (Luke 12:48).

 

MESSAGE

When you study the Book of Acts, and also Church history, you’d observe that the early Church, even though they suffered intense persecution and opposition both from the devil and human adversaries, waxed greater and stronger.

The early Church suffered intense persecution under Roman emperors; they were subjected to cruel tortures. Some were burnt alive and used as human torches. Some were stabbed to death; others were plunged into boiling oil, stoned and clubbed to death. Yet, the apostles and saints of the early Church endured all these and the Church outlived its enemies and detractors.

Remember that the early Church was still in its infancy during the great persecution. But through their prayers and faith, using the Name of Jesus, they eventually subdued Rome. Rome is gone but the Church lives on. They subdued every adversity. The impact of that seemingly “baby” Church was undeniable.

Now think about the fact that the early Church didn’t have the kind of knowledge and revelation of God and the Scriptures as we do today. They didn’t have the expositions of Paul or the beautiful compilations from Peter, John, and the other apostles. Yet, they did great exploits. So we have no excuse. We must do more.

Those who came before us, without the resources that we have today, lived faithfully and triumphantly. If they used the Name of Jesus to raze kings and kingdoms, establish God’s righteousness in the earth, what then is expected of us?

Do you see why you can’t and must not be quiet or complacent about your Christianity? Preach the Gospel boldly, and proclaim the Name of Jesus everywhere. This is your time. Impact your world with the glorious Gospel of the blessed God, which has been committed to your trust. Remember, to whom much is given, much is also required (Luke 12:48)

PRAYER / CONFESSION
Dear Father, I’m empowered by your Spirit to do more with the great grace and resources you’ve given me to preach the Gospel. By the power in the Name of Jesus, we, the Church, make a lasting impact and establish your righteousness in the earth. We’re strengthened, ever-victorious, ever-courageous, transforming our world with the glorious Gospel of Christ, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.
