BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: Jeremiah 33-36
MESSAGE: – Open Heavens 13 August 2024 Tuesday Daily Devotional
All around the world, people call on God for one thing or the other, and as busy as He is, He said: Call unto me, and I will answer thee, and show thee great and mighty things, which thou knowest not. Jeremiah 33:3 I have been to the offices of some presidents. Before you go, you must first book an appointment. If the president asks you to come by 2pm and you get there early, you may still not be allowed to see him until 5pm because the president is busy.
At times, it is the president who needs you, but you still must wait. No president is as busy as God, yet He is always available to give you His undivided attention whenever you call on Him – He is never too busy. Jesus said that whenever we come to God in prayers, we should come in His name. I can send you to someone and give you a signed note asking the fellow to give you what you want.
However, when I say you should go in my name, what I mean is that, even though you are the one going there, when you arrive at the gate, tell them it is Adeboye who has arrived. When the people see you, they are to receive you and treat you as if I am the one they are welcoming. Jesus asking you to pray to the Father in His name means that even though you are the one praying, the Father is to see that prayer point as if He prayed it.
Since Jesus and the Father are one (John 10:30), it also implies that whatever the Father owns, the Son owns also, so as the Father will not refuse to give Jesus whatever He asks for, He will also not refuse to give you whatever you ask for according to His will. If Jesus appears to you and tells you that the moment you ask Him for anything, you will get it, will you stay silent or start asking for whatever you need? He already told you in John 16:23 that if you ask Him for anything, He will give it to you.
This is why you should pray for everything you need. Many people complain about things they can change by simply praying. Jesus is waiting to give you whatever you ask Him for. Don’t be worried about anything; just pray in Jesus’ name, and the problem is solved (John 14:13-14).
Key Point – Open Heavens 13 August 2024
Jesus is waiting to hear your requests, don’t hesitate to talk to Him.
Open Heavens 13 August 2024 Tuesday Hymn
HYMN 22: Sweet Hour Of Prayer
1. Sweet hour of prayer! sweet hour of prayer!
that calls me from a world of care,
and bids me at my Father’s throne
make all my wants and wishes known.
In seasons of distress and grief,
my soul has often found relief,
and oft escaped the tempter’s snare
by thy return, sweet hour of prayer!
2. Sweet hour of prayer! sweet hour of prayer!
the joys I feel, the bliss I share
of those whose anxious spirits burn
with strong desires for thy return!
With such I hasten to the place
where God my Savior shows his face,
and gladly take my station there,
and wait for thee, sweet hour of prayer!
3. Sweet hour of prayer! sweet hour of prayer!
thy wings shall my petition bear
to him whose truth and faithfulness
engage the waiting soul to bless.
And since he bids me seek his face,
believe his word, and trust his grace,
I’ll cast on him my every care,
and wait for thee, sweet hour of prayer!
