Open Heaven Daily Devotional October 20 2022
THEME: The Word II
SCRIPTURE:-Ezekiel 2:2 “And the spirit entered into me when he spake unto me, and set me upon my feet, that I heard him that spake unto me.”
The word of God sets you on your feet in marriage, ministry, business or whatever endeavour you embark on. John 6:63 says: “It is the spirit that quickeneth; the flesh profiteth nothing: the words that I speak unto you, they are spirit, and they are life.”
When you study the word of God and allow it to dwell in you, the Spirit in that word will fill you up. The Spirit will set you on your feet, breathe life into you, and then enable you to do some things that you were unable to do before.
The word of God is so complete that whatever you need to get you on your feet in life can be found in it. In the word of God, you will find countless messages for a better marriage, many lessons to help you prosper in your business, academics, politics, relating with people, relating with God and anything relevant to life.
Proverbs 2:6 says For the LORD giveth wisdom: out of his mouth cometh knowledge and understanding.
During the Coronavirus lockdown, someone said he spent his free time studying previous editions of the Open Heavens Devotional and discovered no message had ever been repeated for the 20 years since we had been writing the devotional.
That is because the devotional is a Bible study tool and the wisdom in Gods word is inexhaustible When I was writing my Ph.D. thesis, I got to a point where I had one hundred and eighty-six simultaneous equations and couldn’t find a solution.
One fateful day, I got tired of it all. I threw the project aside and picked up my Bible to do some studying. I read the passage where God parted the Red Sea for the Israelites to cross (Exodus 14:1-31) and the Spirit of God spoke to me saying, That is the solution to your problem.
I took up the thesis again and this time around, I divided the equations into two categories one on the left and the other on the right, just as the Red Sea parted to the left and right. I then solved both categories separately and got my final answer soon afterwards.
The word of God set me on my feet academically! When I presented my thesis to the external examiner, he had no questions for me. He only said to the authorities, Give this young man his Ph.D!!
Open Heavens 20 October 2022 Key Points:
