MEMORISE: “And I will restore to you the years that the locust hath eaten, the cankerworm, and the caterpillar, and the palmerworm, my great army which I sent among you.” – Joel 2:25 (KJV)
READ: 1 Samuel 30:1-8, 18-19 (KJV)
1 Samuel 30:1-8
1 And it came to pass when David and his men were come to Ziklag on the third day, that the Amalekites had invaded the south, and Ziklag, and smitten Ziklag, and burned it with fire;
2 And had taken the women captives, that were therein: they slew not any, either great or small, but carried them away, and went on their way.
3 So David and his men came to the city, and, behold, it was burned with fire; and their wives, and their sons, and their daughters, were taken captives.
4 Then David and the people with him lifted their voices and wept until they had no more power to weep.
5 And David’s two wives were taken captives, Ahinoam the Jezreelitess, and Abigail the wife of Nabal the Carmelite.
6 And David was greatly distressed; for the people spake of stoning him, because the soul of all the people was grieved, every man for his sons and daughters: but David encouraged himself in the Lord his God.
7 And David said to Abiathar the priest, Ahimelech’s son, I pray thee, bring me hither the ephod. And Abiathar brought thither the ephod to David.
8 And David enquired at the Lord, saying, Shall I pursue after this troop? Shall I overtake them? And he answered him, Pursue: for thou shalt surely overtake them, and without fail recover all.
1 Samuel 30:18-19
18 And David recovered all that the Amalekites had carried away: and David rescued his two wives.
19 And nothing was lacking to them, neither small nor significant, neither sons nor daughters, neither spoil nor anything they had taken to them: David recovered all.
BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: Genesis 47-50
Open Heaven 15 January 2024 MESSAGE
Today, I will conclude the discussion about God’s prophetic message to you from Isaiah 3:10, which says it shall be well with the righteous in this new year and beyond. God indeed desires that you enjoy all-round wellness, including recovering all that you might have lost to the enemy. I declare that you will recover all you may have failed to the enemy, in Jesus’ name.

Our Father in heaven said in His words, “I will go before thee, and make the crooked places straight: I will break in pieces the gates of brass, and cut in sunder the bars of iron:” (Isaiah 45:2). In other words, the Lord is assuring us of His presence as we pass through this new year. Our Lord Jesus Christ gave us an added assurance in John 16:33:
These things I have spoken unto you, that in me ye might have peace. In the world ye shall have tribulation: but be of good cheer; I have overcome the world.
These infallible words in the Scriptures assure you that regardless of what you might have experienced in the last year, it shall be well with you in this new year.
Beloved, to be well with you this year, you must learn a lesson from our Bible text for today. David consulted God before pursuing the enemy and assured him of victory. Please seek divine direction this year as you undertake all your lawful endeavors. Even though He was an army General of high repute, David did not rush into pursuing those who raided his camp while he was away. Instead, he consulted with his Commander-In-Chief, Jehovah-Nissi, for divine assurance. God told him to follow after the invaders, and when he did, he recovered all that they had stolen from him.
Are there things you know that the devil has stolen from you? Are there opportunities you believe you have lost? Are there steps you should have taken but failed to, and you feel all is over? I want to assure you today that my God can help you recover all if you trust Him and surrender all to Him.
I declare once again that as you truly surrender to Jesus and seek His guidance, you will recover all the losses you may have suffered, and it shall be well with you, in Jesus’ name.
Open Heaven 15 January 2024 PRAYER POINT
Thank God for His assurance of recovering all, and ask Him to recover all your losses for you, in Jesus’ name.
Open Heaven 15 January 2024 HYMN 21 – Standing On The Promises Of Christ My King
1 Standing on the promises of Christ my King,
Through eternal ages, let His praises ring,
Glory in the highest, I will shout and sing,
Standing on the promises of God.
Standing, standing,
Standing on the promises of God my Savior;
Standing, standing,

When the howling storms of doubt and fear assail,
By the living Word of God, I shall prevail,
Standing on the promises of God.
3 Standing on the promises, I now can see
Perfect, present cleansing in the blood for me;
Standing in the liberty where Christ makes free,
Standing on the promises of God.
4 Standing on the promises of Christ the Lord,
Bound to Him eternally by love’s strong cord,
Overcoming daily with the Spirit’s sword,
Standing on the promises of God.
5 Standing on the promises I shall not fall,
Listening every moment to the Spirit’s call.
Resting in my Savior as my All in all,
Standing on the promises of God.
